1647  Calmness

Everything has a price. This is something that Azief understood a long time ago. Today, he took the energies of that world and that world

Someday, he have to pay the price. But maybe even if he knows, he would still choose to take it. Because with his cultivation, he could pay this price. More and more breaches appears, and more and more energies is extracted out from other worlds. Each strand of energies that rushes toward the Oni Essence avatar is a cause and effect that needs to be solved one day in the future. Tens of thousands of miles from the site where Azief is undergoing his breakthrough is Sasha, Wang Jian, Freya and other members of the pandemonium government.

They all frowned. They could not even come close to the area of the breakthrough. The forces and energies around that area is enough to make them injured. And as many of them realized, there is a feeling that they are in some kind of calamity when they are near the area where Death Monarch is experiencing his breakthrough

Wang Jian notices it best. He frowns and he could feel something uncomfortable. There is a tribulation that is coming. So, they could not stand close to Azief. They could not even come close to him so they could only imagine what is happening there right now

The fluctuation of energy from that area ripples outwards like some kind of waves of the sea

All they could see was the aura emanated by the essence. But even though they are separated by tens of thousands of miles, they could still see the essence avatar.

They are now like giant pillars

Standing there like statues.

"It is like they are guarding something" Freya said. If they could see that Azief is in the middle of these avatars, they could confirm what they thought

But they could only speculate right now because there is no one that have broken through Essence Creation before. And the way Azief breakthrough the realm is actually not the common way. He is breaking through his own way, using the methods of Three Separations instead of using the method of the Nine Essence Avatar like the knowledge that is imparted to them by the system

And right now, they are looking at something terrifying. They could see with their eyes, there is a titanic apparition that is growing by the second. And they all frowned when they see this apparition. Because not only they could feel the energy that is pervading all heaven and earth, they could also feel that the concentration of energy around Pandemonium is decreasing. The formation above their heads is cracking and many of the layers of protection is dissipating like a smoke

Slowly at first but then as the energy of the world decreases, the rate of dissipating becomes even more obvious. The energy is not the only thing that is being absorbed by the Omni Essence. Some people who dabbles in the art of fate and fortune could also feel that the Omni Essence is plundering fate and destiny

Some people rejoice at this and some people frowned at this.

Why would some people be happy and why would some people frown? Because of interest.

Plundering fate and destiny, means entangled in cause and effect. It is a chain. A shackle. And Azief act of taking the energy of the world means there is already a cause and effect between Earth and Azief.

But now, plundering fortune of the world, that cause and effect is strengthened. The Omni Essence avatar expanded even more and ten percent of the world energy is already being absorbed. When the Omni Essence appears, it emboldens and strengthen the other Essence Avatar.

And they began absorbing wildly. The energy of the world decrease by fifteen percent then twenty percent and the maelstrom of energy focused on Pandemonium

That forest where Azief went into seclusion has no longer the appearance of a forest. Instead, it is a land filled with mystical and terrifying space and time phenomenon.

The energy and aura of each of the essence avatar clashed with each other and created these scenes. The Essence Avatar began to expand, become taller and taller, their apparitions seems to become stronger. All forms of energies gathers all around Pandemonium. These energies contains laws, contains essence of that law.

There are some geniuses who look at the sky and being enlightened by what they see. And some who understand it created their own way and the method of the system is breaking down. They walk a new path, they walk their path

Some people look at the sky and see the truth and when they see the truth the system collapses on itself.

New cultivation method sprouted

Of course, only some people could embark in this method. Those who look at the sky, ponder the truth and finally reaching that truth, only these kinds of people could embark in that kind of method

Only then a new door to a new avenue opens up

The Omni energy and now the Omni avatar possess the power of almost unlimited use. Of course, this energy is rarely used, rarely understood and Azief himself rarely uses it.

Because what the mind could think, the energy could do it, if only...if only he could master it to perfection.

Embracing all forms of energies, all kinds of energies, the Omni Essence Avatar could be said to be the strongest type of energy

And the avatar itself seems to take infinite forms. In the eyes of some people, the Omni Avatar look like Azief but wear dark robes and look like a death god. While some people saw a death god while looking at the Omni Essence avatar, some people see a being clothed in white garb, emanating a holy light, halo on their back, angel disk on top of its head.

Some people saw a gigantic dark tiger. Some saw a black dragon. Some saw abstract pictures that mess up with the mind. Unlimited form, unlimited shape, reality is but one dream, a thought destroys the dream

Azief could not feel all of this and he could not think that his form is different in every person that could see him.

He could not care about all of that in this moment The transformation of all of his Essence is magnificent, majestic and would not shame the title of the strongest man in the world

But what they world sees and what Azief felt is very different. The world could only see twelve towering apparitions, emanating heaven shaking power, piercing the heavens and emanating a godly aura that spreads across the world What a magnificent sight!

What a magnificent strongest person in the world!

This is the majesty of Death Monarch!

That is what the world is seeing and that is what people expected of Death Monarch. Even Wang Jian, Freya, Sasha, all those people who came to try protect Death Monarch, sees the vision from afar and they could only think that right now Death Monarch must be very majestic

They could not even imagine, that the real Death Monarch is now kneeling on the ground, weakened appearing like he had lost a fight. Red blood is pouring out from his mouth, his breathing is hard and his entire body is soaked in sweat. He feels hot and cold, the hot is like being poured hot boiling water all over his now mortal skin and the cold is the kind of cold that freezes body part.

And these two contradictory pains is clashing with each other. Blood keep pouring and he falls to the ground, his face fall face down toward the ground. He coughed and each cough feels like it would bring down his rib cage and his heart.

There is only one energy left in his body. Only one more essence. "Combine Six Laws to become One, creating an Essence Avatar of Harmony"

"Combine another six law to become one, Creating an Essence Avatar of Chaos"

"And the remainder of that law shall become the connector"

He mutters to himself

Because he fears that he would forget it. He closes his eyes and put his hand on his chest.

"One last act" And he extracted the last component

BOOOM!

….

The world was shaken when they see the Netherworld Sea on the sky, the twelve auras that fills the world, the pressure that oppresses Heaven and Earth. But then a sound echo all over the world. And all of it disappears.

The Songs of the world disappears like it never existed; the Netherworld Sea dissipated like the smoke that is being blown away by the wind. And the twelve energy auras of the Essence avatar faded away, the colours of the sky changes, the clouds comes gathering back, the roof of the heaven is closed again

The tribulation thunder appears again, the sound of thunder and lightning signifies the Heaven wrath.

Now, that the aura of the essence no longer restrict it, the Heavenly Tribulation of Heaven and Earth gathers again and it quickly fills the sky of Pandemonium

So much so that if you are in pandemonium right now, if you look up all you could see is the abundance of dark clouds that forms like a wall on the sky, thunder booms loudly like a god ransacking the skies and the lightning bolts slither across the clouds like some kind of dragon. The Ten Seas calms down, the forbidden zones of the world no longer shakes and people look at the sky, with puzzled expression n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

What had happened?
