Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World-Novel

Chapter 962  Understanding the Fourth Realm

Zatiel waved his hand again, teleporting everybody into the Emptiness. Then, he took a deep breath and no longer suppressed the monstrous power inside his body and soul.

"¡BOOM!"

A shock wave emerged from Zatiel's body, and the Sacred Kings saw with awe how that was all this one needed to push away the waves of chaotic energy around them, leaving an empty area of countless light years.

Venganza and Ezequiel adopted solemn expressions as they felt the soul force and physical pressure the Samsara Thearch unleashed. It vastly surpassed theirs, making it clear that calling Zatiel just a True Rank 10 life form would be underestimating this one.

A pillar of dark purple flames and golden energy emerged from Zatiel as his body showed its true form. His right and left eyes became the Thanatos Eye and Eros Eye, but this was an even more potent version than the one shown during the Ultimate Multiversal War.

There were halos of golden runes of Eternal Flame formed inside both eyes. The power in the eyes was the fusion of the Concept Path and Law Path, revealing a force that could twist reality and imagination.

Zatiel's soul force exploded once the Thanatos Eye and Eros Eye manifested, and it was so strong that some of the Sacred Kings with weak spiritual defenses nearly fell unconscious.

Just his soul force and those two eyes would be enough to make him the strongest life form in the entire Daybreak Universe, but the Samsara Thearch's power-up was far from over.

A golden crown containing twelve suns materialized above Zatiel's head, and then eighteen demonic wings of solidified energy emerged from his back.

Zatiel's body began to grow as his muscles bulged. The physical pressure he began to unleash was so high that it acted as a gravitational field, pushing people toward him, not unlike a black hole.

Ezequiel could not help but clench his fist as he felt Zatiel's physical might surpass his. He knew that challenging the Samsara Thearch in terms of soul force would be foolish, which is why he had trained his body day and night so as not to be left behind.

Yet, despite the Emptiness Thearch's hard work, the Samsara Thearch's physical might reach a whole new level.

The power that Zatiel unleashed made him resemble an unsurpassable mountain, and he still needed to reveal one final card.

"CRACK!"

The sound of glass shattering echoed across the Emptiness as a cut appeared on Zatiel's forehead.

Ezequiel, Venganza, and the Sacred Kings saw how the Emptiness began to tremble as a immense power like emerged from that cut in the Samsara Thearch's forehead.

The cut began to expand slowly, making the Emptiness tremble with more and more strength, and all sorts of majestic phenomena materialized in the surroundings.

Golden swords, giant mythical beasts, bridges that connected worlds, supernovas of all colors, and all many more phantoms appeared in the Emptiness.

The Sacred Kings were amazed by the aura those phenomena unleashed, and the shock in the faces of the Revenge Thearch and Emptiness Thearch was even more remarkable.

The cultivation of the duo allowed them to understand that while those were just phantoms generated by the Samsara Thearch's power and experiences, they had the potential to come to life. It would only take a stream of Zatiel's life force to transform those phenomena into mighty Eldars or divine treasures.

Finally, the Samsara Eye revealed itself, and its power was mind-blowing. It had three pupils, the right was golden, the left had a dark purple light, and the one in the center was empty of any color, but there was a white sun inside.

None of the Thearchs or Sacred Kings had seen or felt anything like the Samsara Eye in all their trips across the Emptiness. It was more than just the flawless fusion between Truth and Eternal Flame. That white sun was the next step in the evolutive stage.

Zatiel inhaled, and the Thearchs and Sacred Kings could swear they saw the Emptiness compress around him, only to expand as he exhaled.

What kind of power do you need to have for your mere breathing to affect the Emptiness, the birthplace of universes!?

However, feeling the power of the Samsara Theach spread a shadow over their hearts and minds since the Beyonder was even stronger!

Luckily, the Samsara Thearch's voice soon reached them, making the dread of the Beyonder vanish, replaced by intrigue and curiosity.

"Although my body and soul took dozens of thousands of years to heal, my mind woke up after less than five thousand years. I spend all that time learning more about the Fourth Realm and how to advance in it."

Zatiel's voice made the Thearchs and Sacred King feel their blood burn with excitement, and they were not the only ones since his voice reached the Daybreak Universe, echoing across the sky for all to hear.

"The Fourth Realm is more than a realm or cultivation stage. It is a state of being, and to rise forward, you need more than just increasing the energy inside your Inner Universe, the strength of your body, or the force of your soul."

The Samsara Thearc's voice carried a powerful intent that made most life forms in the Daybreak Universe fall unconscious. Their souls did not have the power to endure the pressure of those words, but the knowledge would be engraved in their minds for them to access once they grew strong enough.

Those like Roku, who had already taken a step into the Fourth Realm, could resist the pressure of that knowledge and adopted a meditative stance as they emptied their minds of everything other than the Samsara Thearch's soul.

"The first step to enter the realm is to surpass one of the powers that form a universe and give birth to live: Laws and Concepts.

The generation of a Truth will temper your Primordial Essence and allow your eyes to see beyond the matrix that forms objective reality. You rise beyond gravity, light, darkness, and every other cosmic force.

Your soul no longer abides by the universe's rules, and you can rewrite them."

The Samsara Thearch raised his right hand, making a dark purple flame that began to birth a Law Matrix into the Emptiness, showing the power to give birth to reality where there was nothing!

Unlike the forces birthed in the other universe, where fire provoked heat and ice generated cold, the matrix formed by the Samsara Thearch would act as he desired.

If he used this power inside a universe with a Law Matrix in place, his new laws would change the old ones as long as he had enough energy. Essentially, he could change objective reality according to his wishes.

The power of the Samsara Truth reached all Thearchs and Sacred Kings, traveling all the way into the Daybreak Universe before vanishing.

"The other path you can take is that of Eternal Flames. These are harder to master for most life forms since Concepts are not something we can touch but an idea born out of the collective mind and belief of all life forms in the universe.

An Eternal Flame will temper your mind and willpower, allowing your way of thinking to rise beyond the concepts accepted by all. Your ego can suppress that of the universe itself.

There are no barriers to your mind, and your imagination becomes a weapon capable of giving birth to weapons that cut laws and break reality."

Zatiel raised his left hand, from which a golden flame emerged. It began to affect the Emptiness just like the Samsara Truth, but this one did not form a matrix, instead forming an oniric realm where your ego could spend an eternity exploring.

The Thearchs and Sacred Kings closed their eyes as they focused on that golden flame and its oniric realm. They could let off their bodies and enter that realm, growing their minds and helping their egos evolve beyond a universe's limitation.

It was an intoxicating feeling, especially for those that followed the Concept Path, and if given a chance, many would choose to live in the oniric realm birthed by the Samsara Thearch's Eternal Flame.

"Any of the Paths is equally powerful, but on their own, they are limited. One explores objective reality, while the other focuses on imagination and ideas.

If you only dominate one of them, you will reach your limit in the Initial Stage. Only by mastering both can you rise to a level where reality and thought are under your grasp."

The Samsara Thearch fused the golden and dark purple flames, allowing their powers to merge flawlessly.

A new force emerged in the Emptiness as the Samsara Truth and Eternal Flames fused their power, allowing the boundary between imagination and reality to fade.

Anything that the Samsara Thearch thought could become an objective reality.

"If you are able to merge both of these powers, then you will rise to a level where nothing is impossible, even reversing time. You reach the Middle Stage and earn Omnipotence."
