Lord Shadow

Chapter 1639 Arrogance

"What is to fear death?!" he shouted

 That defiance that he once had, when he said those words towards Sofia , decades ago, rises up again

Before, he fought against the world. And now he found out that fate and destiny, the world and the Universe are all against him. 

A puppet on a string. And he wanted to cut all of this string from him. And for that he needs to be stronger.

He closes his eyes, ignores the sky and look inside him and he is back in his Inner World. 

" I could scarcely feel any energy left" he thought to himself. His Inner world right now looks like a dead world and the stars and the skies are collapsing into itself , miniature of the real Universe

The world feels like a dead world and the universe beyond this world is also dying

Dead world, dead universe

But there is still a few laws holding it all up so it would not collapse completely. 

There is still the Primordial energy still in his body

Of the many energies in his body, this one is the most mysterious and one of the few energies that he did not truly master.

He masters some of its application but not all. 

And he is hoping that when this energy is turned into an Essence Avatar, that it would comprehend the Primordial energies more than he is and he could manipulate more of the things that primordial energy could affect.

This energy is the primordial energy that originated everything

And when Azief said everything, he means everything. 

Reality, time, space, life, death, matter energy, and every possible and impossible concept existing and non-existing in the omniverse, from a single particular to the infinite Omniverse

This force, this energy is the link that connects and keeps the omniverse and its concepts working as they should; since this force is the primordial source of everything and the one that combines all, everything has its energy, giving the user control of everything and every alien concept

And out of every energy that he have this is the energy he rarely used. Because most of the time he is on Earth

And the other laws that he have is sufficient enough for him to use and with a lack of any suitable opponent, Azief rarely had to use this kind of energy to fight against anyone

Anyone who master this energy and could take it up a notch is considered a Supreme Being

Being like Azul is the example of primordial energy elevated to a different level. 

For a lack of a better word, the step up from Primordial energy is Omnipotence. The energy is extracted and a purple aura comes out from Azief body and this purple aura quickly forms into a silhouette of a person

A powerful aura rushes toward the sky and this time the laws of the world went wild. Azief feel a lot weaker than before.

His Inner world and his Inner Universe are now collapsing and his body is becoming even more weaker as he began to look pale like a person who is sick. 

The Primordial Essence turns into a large avatar the size of eight feet tall and the moment it came out it was like Athena sprang out from the head of Zeus.

And this kind of energy affected everything around it. 

"Only four more" Azief did not notice the cosmic clouds but there is a feeling in his heart. That something is brewing. 

Even though he no longer has his sense enhanced and he could not see the clouds that is forming above the heaven, Azief could not help but feel this feeling like something is approaching. 

And he also felt that the weakness of his body is now even more tiring and he could not help but wanting to quickly extract out all of the energies in his body and condense it as fast as possible

"I feel like there is a calamity that is about to happen" this is only his thought and he had nothing to back this up. But Azief trusted his instinct very much.

He felt it is more advantageous for him to quickly extract his Essence. All the thirteen energies and laws that he had cultivated must quickly be extracted out

A hunch. 

"A tribulation" he thought to himself. Azief right now is surrounded by al, kinds of aura. 

Fortunately, enough, all of this aura comes from his essence and as such it did not harm him even though the aura itself has repelled anyone that wanting to come close

But precisely because of that, he could not see the gathering cosmic clouds above the stratosphere of Earth

He could only rely on his instinct right now

"And the weaker I am, the easier it is" he thought to himself. 

He notices that. Yes, he is getting weaker. 

But also at the same time, he realizes the speed at which he extracted his Essence become doubled and tripled

There is the wisdom of if there is pain, at least make it fast

And he wanted to make it as fast as possible. He closes his eyes and once again he is inside his Inner world

Now, his Inner World is already very lifeless, bleak and grey

Like the colours were robbed from this world. Azief smiles bitterly

"Resurrection after death. Whenever one quality reaches its peak, it will naturally begin to transform into the opposite quality"

His Inner World looks like a world that is dying. 

No, it is dying. But he believes that once he breakthrough, his Inner World will become stronger 

If he failed, then his opportunity to break into the higher realm is dashed. 

But for someone like Azief who had breakthrough to all the realms, and knowing that destiny and fate has a plan for him, knows that as long as he prepares himself and act accordingly, it would not be hard for him to breakthrough

This is the confidence of the strong. 

This is the confidence of a winner. Because once you win a lot of victory, there is this kind of arrogance

And this kind of arrogance is like an invincible confidence that is honed with victory

Azief close his eyes and then he feels the wind blowing inside his Inner World. The wind is cold and it has that trace of death

And then as he digs deeper, he cold feels the souls in his Inner World. 

Hidden underneath everything, of every layer of every existence in his Inner World

Even though this Inner World itself is crumbling, it crumbles gradually and it seems very slow. 

Because there are still laws that keep this Inner World standing. 

After all, even a person with One disk could have an Inner World so Azief who has thirteen Laws and thirteen energies each one a major law of the Universe…. that alone shows how much damage his Inner World could take. 

Even when almost half of the energies in this Inner World was extracted, it still stands and there is even a different kind of energies that is trying to heal this Inner World

Azief could sense all of this in that fleeting moment when he closes his eyes and feels the energy that is inside his Inner World

And then he laughed

And laughing, he extracted another energy out of his body, another law that make up his Inner World. 

He made a grasping motion with his hand and the moment he did that; souls emerge from the layers of existence in Azief Inner World. 

Soul energy. Soul Essence would be formed

In the real world, the moment the Soul Essence was formed, a powerful explosion blast occurs.

This blast is just like that blast before. A blast of energy that pushes the spread of Azief energy even further away

The whole world could feel it now. 

Other than a few forbidden and mysterious zone where Azief energy could not penetrate, most of the continents all over the world, could feel this energy. 

The difference is only in the degree of feelings.

Some feel it acutely and some senses it like a subtle energy that is slightly different than the energy in the air

He extracted the Soul energy almost immediately.

And the pain almost tears him apart

Azief clutch his chest and his forehead scrunched

"Argh!"

And then an energy blast erupted

BOOOM!

Myriads energies around Azief Essence avatar is swirling wildly. 

Like a symphony of chaos. 

It goes to the heavens above and pierce the earth below, the entire area of the forest is flattened, leaving the forest to turn into flatland filled with rising energies. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ N(o)vel(F)ire

These energies seem to embedded itself around the area of the forest. 

Probably after this, his place would become a place filled with all kinds of energies that it could help people to comprehend the laws that they practiced

Shining golden and white and black, these aura swirls around the Soul Essence Avatar. 

It swirls slowly at first before it picked up pace and then it began to swirls likes black hole sucking light all around it

However, instead of light that is being sucked into the Soul Essence, it is more like it is sucking an intangible thing,

 Like concept, thoughts, dreams, memories, emotion. That kind of intangible things. 

Soul. An Essence of Soul. 

That is what it absorbs. And the more it absorbs, the more powerful the pressure coming from the Soul Essence Avatar.

From a ball of energy to quickly became a mist figure before quickly morphing into Azief appearance and physique

The Soul Essence Avatar sits cross legged in the air; its figure quickly solidified to create a clear figure.
