Chapter 454: Endless Hell (1/2)
Zatiel's bloodlust kept growing as he stared at the name at the top of the Prima Universe's Champion Ranking. A dark red aura emerged from him, lowering the temperature in the surroundings.
First, the bloodlust became a mantle around the Neo-Demon's Ancestor, but the next second blasted out like a raging flame.
The clashes between Zatiel and The Sage started when he created a wave in the ocean of fate that the latter perceived.
One of the reasons why the Neo-Demon hated him so much was due to The Sage targeting his people and the fact he used the memories of his family to attack him.
However, Zatiel felt that he needed to kill him from the bottom of his soul because The Sage was the first person in the last billion years that made him feel threatened.
He was the Incarnation of Death and Destruction. His power was so high that no Law Overlord could threaten him, and even the entire Prima Universe working together could only equal him.
Even if he was extremely weak right now, the truth was that not even the Magi World's leader or the Overgod, two of the most powerful Law Overlords, could disturb Zatiel.
Only an existence like the endless darkness should affect his mind, but The Sage, that individual who only displayed Rank 6 battle power, achieved that feat as well.
That is why he went to the extreme of using the entity in the first layer of The Final Purgatory to erase from the timeline everything connected to the clone he captured.
No matter how many clones, incarnations, or avatars The Sage had, that power should have erased all of them.
'Even if his true power was that of a Being of Laws and I could not erase him from the timeline, the entity in the first layer should have more than enough power to have killed him.'
Zatiel regained control over his emotions, and after noticing the way Ancestral Root looked at him, he retracted his bloodlust. Nevertheless, his instincts were still screaming, telling him he needed to kill that man.
The fact The Sage's name was in the ranking did not mean he was still alive. After all, just like NRAI could retain the memories Zatiel had of that man, the World Tree's Abode could also resist the change in the timeline and conserve the information regarding him.
His rational mind told him that The Sage should have died, but deep down, Zatiel felt that that fearful enemy was still there, lurking in the darkness, waiting for the moment to strike.
Zatiel turned to Ancestral Root but shook his head after some thinking.
'Even if he has information about The Sage, he would not give it to me since it would be going against his purpose as an Artifact Spirit. I guess I will have to ask the old tree directly.'
He threw the matter with The Sage to the back of his mind and looked to the other titles.
Number 2. Heavenly Slayer ( 86% completion)
Number 3. Astral Faith Destroyer (85% completion)
Number 4. Supernova of Spacetime (82% completion)
Number 5. Supernova of Death and Destruction (81% completion)
Number 6. Holy Mother (80% completion)
Number 7. Darkness Devourer (79% completion)
Number 8. Vajra Eternal Saintess (77% completion)
Number 9. Endless Void Dragon King (75% completion)
Number 10. True Cultivator (75% completion)
Despite being the first time he took the trial, Zatiel had some knowledge about it.
Theoretically, someone with 100% completion would have the power to reach Rank 10. That was a feat even the Incarnation of Death and Destruction did not achieve, at least not truly.
Those with a completion percentage between 75% to 79% were amazing geniuses that could form powerful Omega Laws and display battle power above their cultivation even after reaching Rank 8.
