Chapter 724 Singularity
That single glowing cell containing a world where energy, matter, and soul fused into a single force was a miracle at a level the multiverse had only seen once before.
The entity saw how that single cell was the only one left from the dozens of trillions that composed Ezequiel's body. Still, the presence of that cell meant the Supreme Neo-Demon had triggered the Pan Inheritance and fulfilled his evolution!
Oceans of Emptiness Aura entered that cell, making it tremble before experiencing mitosis, giving birth to a new one. That process repeatedly occurred as the cells differentiated and took specific roles.
A skeleton, nervous system, muscles, and organs slowly appeared above the Altar of Emptiness. The body they were creating was enormous, and once the cells completed their work, it was larger than a High World!
Ezequiel's body still had three faces and six arms covered in bone armor. However, the silver stars around his head were now burning suns. That was not the only change as a black matrix extended all over his body, through which a dark, golden, and white force circulated.
He slowly opened his eyes, which were now pure white from where flaming lightning emerged.
"AHHHHH!" The Supreme Neo-Demon roared as he unleashed all of his power, generating a blast of energy.
It was hard to say the level of his cultivation due to the uniqueness of his centers of power, but his soul force rose to Peak Rank 7. As for his aura, it seemed to have become infinitely close to Rank 9! kept roaring and burning his energy as he attempted to adjust. His body was simultaneously his energy and soul, making his senses go haywire.
Luckily, after a few minutes, Ezequiel regained focus and partially adapted to his new state. He moved his hand closer to his eyes and saw landmasses and basic life in each of its cells!

The next second, the Supreme Neo-Demon's eyes widened with utter shock as he saw himself standing in the palm of an enormous being.
Ezequiel was the size of a High World but still looked no different than an ant in the being's palm. He did not think for long to figure out who this person was.
"The Lord of Emptiness!"
As he heard those words, a smile appeared in the enormous being, and he looked at Ezequiel before starting to laugh.
"Hahahaha, so I was right!"
Ezequiel did not have the luxury of considering those words, as that laugh made his ears bleed and shook his vital organs. Had he not evolved, the sonic waves could have shattered his body!
The Lord of Emptiness was not attacking Ezequiel. He was sincerely just laughing. However, his voice had the power to harm Rank 9 life forms.
Luckily for Ezequiel, when the Lord of Emptiness saw the effect of his laugh, he stopped. After a moment, his body shrank to the size of a High World.
"Like this, our conversation will be easier."
Ezequiel's eyes narrowed as he stared at the Lord of Emptiness, and while this one did not seem to have any ill will against him, he did not lower his guard. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
"WAIT!"
The Supreme Neo-Demon was just about to ask a question when he heard that shout. He turned to the right and saw the entity in charge of the Sacred Trial looking at the Lord of Emptiness with eyes full of wildness and desperation.
"GIVE ME MY REWARD!"
The Lord of Emptiness turned toward the entity, and no emotion could be seen in his eyes as he answered.
"Here is your reward."
Ezequiel saw how the Lord of Emptiness aimed his right hand toward the entity, making the last one explode!
An Extreme Rank 9 life form perished just like that, and the pieces of his existence fused into the Lord of Emptiness, making the eyes of this one glow.
"I am sorry for the interruption. You were about to ask a question, right?" The Lord of Emptiness' voice was calm as if killing the entity in charge of the Sacred Trial meant nothing to him.
'Rank 10!' Ezequiel's alertness spiked as he stared at the Lord of Emptiness.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough he suspected that the Lord of Emptiness was a Rank 10 life form, being in the presence of one was still incredible. Those were entities capable of ending super universes, with life spans larger than an Epoch.
Attempting to decipher what crossed the mind of a life form that might have lived for trillions of years was beyond the Supreme Neo-Demon's abilities.
"What is the reason you did all of this?" Ezequiel did not think he could outsmart the Lord of Emptiness, so he went straight to the point.
The Lord of Emptiness did not answer immediately. He focused on Ezequiel for a few seconds before shrugging his shoulders.
"I created the Sacred Trial to find a Vessel with the Gu Inheritance in which I could impart the Pan Inheritance. I would then possess that person and break the shackles of my nature."
Ezequiel's eyes narrowed as an immense coldness and killing intent appeared in them. No matter how futile the battle could be, he would not just let someone else take control of him.
"There is no need to act like that. If I wanted to control you, I would have done it when the Pan Inheritance changed your nature. I will explain everything in a moment, but you can rest assured that the power you have is now yours and no one else."
The Lord of Emptiness's answer relaxed Ezequiel. There was no need for him to lie since there was nothing the Supreme Neo-Demon could do to fight him.
"I must say, it is a pity that you appeared so late. Otherwise, you might have become the Singularity."
"Singularity?" Ezequiel had not heard that term before and did not know that was the way the entity in charge of the Sacred Trial called Zatiel.
"Singularity is how my kind refers to the Story's Protagonist."
