Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

There were trillions inside the Virtual Dream Universe right now. Although the relationship between the Justice Primarchs and the Neo-Demon Race grew tense over the last centuries, everyone from the most common talent to the great geniuses enjoyed the advantages of Legacy.

Universe Dream, the one in charge of keeping the Virtual Dream Universe running smoothly, did not neglect his job just because Venganza no longer cared about the rise of new geniuses. He followed Zatiel's guidelines, which contained how to handle the changes in Legacy as the Virtual Dream Path of Power advanced through the Ranks.

Of course, Legacy was not the only thing growing more potent now, as Eternal Nightmare also saw its laws and forces growing more powerful and stabler.

There were two main reasons why Vengaza chose to use Avernus' soul and vitality to assist him in the growth of his Virtual Dream Universe.

The first was that Baator and Abyss was one of the few planes Primordial Body Incarnation did not care about. If they both crumble into oblivion, he would only laugh.

And the second was that Venganza needed a plane full of evilness, so he could send it toward Eternal Nightmare to create more Depravitas.

"¡BOOM!"

An invisible explosion echoed through the Virtual Dream Universe as the Virtual Dream Path of Power rose into Middle Rank 8. Yet, that was not the end, as the universe kept growing.

Venganza's soul, who had remained meditative during the Virtual Dream Universe's advance, opened his eyes. A smile appeared on his face as he saw how his cognitive abilities and soul force improved, allowing him to focus on another task.

The Depravita concentrated in the dark fog, which had already covered all of Avernus. He focused on the Outer Origin Essence and Inner Origin Essence that was part of the Primordial Body Incarnation and began to train Return to Origin.

Parts of the dark fog trembled and collapsed from time to time, but the remaining pieces would grow stronger. Not only was it able to hold more energy and vitality, but its influence over World Strength also improved.

Combining the racial gifts of the Primordial Race and Depravita Race was something only Venganza could achieve.

Salomon and Issac were far from being alone in watching the cataclysmic events occurring in Avernus. Everybody saw how Venganza erased all Devils in the First Circle of Hell, from the weakest Rank 0 to the mightiest Rank 9.

If that were not enough, due to the Depravita's relentlessly devouring Averunus' vitality and soul, the plane would soon be nothing but a lifeless rectangular rock.

Venganza was just a Rank 8 life form with Initial Rank 9 battle power, so many in the Prima Universe could do something about his actions, but no one dared. If the Depravita were to summon the Incarnation of Death and Destruction, there would be no place to hide.

However, Baator was not the only place that encountered a cataclysmic event. Fifty years after Vengaza began to devour Avernus, earthquakes assaulted the 6th Layer of Abyss with such ferocity that it shattered!

Venganza glanced toward Abyss, and a smile appeared on his face.

'It was about time.' He knew the reason for the devastation in the 6th Layer of Abyss and was glad to see it happen.

Fourteen years after that, Venganza stopped his cultivation. If he continued devouring, Avernus would truly crumble. He did not care about the circle of hell but could not allow it to destabilize Dis, as he already had plans for this one.

Venganza's soul left Avernus' origin, and the moment he appeared over on the surface, the dark fog condensed around him, reforming his body.

Not only was Venganza's physical might much higher, but the Silver Stars of Origin floating around his head were four!

All those seeing the Depravita from billions of light-years away could not help but feel dread at his might and how fast he grew. It was a general rule that the higher the Rank, the slower you advance, but Venganza seemed to be the exception.

With his current power, Venganza could have killed Zurtur without needing to depend on his Concept, but that was not enough. His right eyes glowed, and a Depravita with a red body appeared in front of him.

Ira looked at its surroundings, and the moment it saw Vengaza, extreme coldness and killing intent appeared in its eyes as it made his power explode!

The Depravita of Wrath had reached Middle Rank 8, and its aura was so powerful that it crossed into the Late level!

Although that was amazing for a life form with less than one thousand years of age, it was still far from enough to match Venganza.

Nevertheless, Ira did not bow, nor did it relinquish its will. It was ready to fight until the last second.

Venganza showed nothing as he saw Ira's rage and power.

"You can fight me and lose or hear my proposal."

Venganza's behavior made no sense, as Depravitas should lack wisdom and only act on instincts, so what happened next shocked all those seeing the interaction between the duo.

"Talk..."

That word was enough to make even the Justice Primarchs feel cold sweat on their backs. Just one Depravita with wisdom was terrifying, but an entire race was a nightmare.

Venganza chose not to hide his conversation with Ira for a simple reason. This interaction involved his racial pride, and there was nothing he needed to be ashamed of. If someone thought otherwise, he would handle them.

"Good, you are already developing wisdom. Tell me, do you have an idea of the path we need to take to enter Rank 9."

Ira's desire to destroy and kill remained in its eyes, but it gathered all its focus to speak the following words.

"Overcome... nature."

Venganza smiled as he heard that and nodded.

"You are right. If we want to enter Rank 9, we must overcome our existence's very nature. It would not be so drastic for me, but you and the others will change immensely."
