Chapter 261 - II Mirrored Legion (2/2)

As he approached the Celestial World core, Elijah felt the heat increase to an astounding rate. It was several times higher than when he was standing on the surface of a star. And to his surprise, a purple shadow in the distance stood out from everything else, an ancient-looking purple orb surrounded by complex runic patterns.

From it, he felt the laws of water, fire, earth, wind, space and time, the solid foundation of any living-world, but on a much larger scale. Well, it was the required amount if they wanted to make an artificial cosmic plane with the size of a galaxy. And for a place which could hold billions and billions of planets, its core must have more than enough to create the same amount of planets and stars.

Seeing his figure staring ceaselessly at the purple orb far away, Chloe. ”What should we do now?”

Elijah was overjoyed by what he saw. ”It's perfect! I knew it was big, but this is too great. The pure energy and laws in the condensed in the same place are astounding, with this we can solve most problems. Maybe even create a new body for you and the ice princess, she said with her body heavily damaged from the seal, she will need the help of a body designer to make a new body for her.”

'Well, I did make Sarina's body back then. So to call me a body designer was not a lie.' He thought to himself as he left hand slowly moved towards his Hammer.

”Show yourself!” Suddenly he drew his weapon, the silence in this vast ocean of sand broke as a thousand silver-eyes beasts surged from the ground.

A voice that came from the deeps of hell, then sounded in his ears. ”Eight royal families instead of seven, the existence of those weird towers and buildings. Now this type of cosmic plane, something completely different from what I've seen in other places. You know, your reality is a real singularity.”

Even with the all the noise of the beasts and sand flying everywhere, sounds of steps sounded from afar. There, with his silver hair and crown stood Edward holding a long black as thin as a needle in his hand.

With his hammer pointed at Edward, Elijah couldn't hold back his question.”How did you recover your senses?”

Edward's hand played with his blade as he replied. ”Not that much, the great one returned my senses in exchange for delaying you here.”

”I see...” Elijah raised his guard as he mobilized the powers of time around him.

Wiiiiiirlll! Elijah was about to move when everything froze. Edward and his beasts felt something wrong when a strange force fell over them and then they all vanished into thin air.

....

Formless bodies appeared from nothing, from thousands to millions, soon, it reached the same as the number of Edward's forces. Elijah was standing within the many shadows floating around him, his face also turned pale as he spat a mouthful of dry blood. His face aged and several strands of his hair turned white.

”What?” Edward stopped his attack, something about these shadows made him pretty worried. And as their forms became clearer, his concern was revealed to be right on the point.

”Who would have thought I would have to experience so many deaths until I found your weakness, which coincidentally is yourself.” Hehe, Elijah smiled to himself. Clearly happy with the way things turned out. ”Cough! Cough! I've sacrificed 97% of my remaining lifespan in order to summon this many time shadows with this power. No, I guess Time Mirror is more accurate in this case, I just reflected your army back to you.”

Giving a slap on mirrored-Edward's shoulder, he stepped forward. His phone absorbing the matter around him and converting in Lifeforce, which returned the color back to his face. He didn't look as sick as before, but it didn't change his lifespan has decreased to 1 year and a half.

'One year is enough.' He thought to himself.

”So... Let's start the experiment, shall we? To see if your Prime Beasts or my Mirrored Legion is superior.”
