The Holy Chronicles of Baator

[Trafford]

The entire Astral Boundary was divided into several ones that could be called Astral Regions.

Central Star Region was basically in the middle of the Astral Boundary, where the Dresden Arcanum Empire was stationed, together with several territories of some factions backed by Tier 11 Powerhouses. Canghzi Plane, controlled by Warlocks, was also located here as other significant planes for Warlocks and Arcanists.

Divine Star Region was one huge area controlled by gods of various planes. It was confirmed that there should be at least 5 to 7 Myriad God Emperors. Still, as almost no one returned alive from that area, pieces of information are vague about the state of the Divine Star Region, as Gods are highly protective against anyone attempting to set their foot there.

Then there was the Ancient Eternity Star Region was filled with too many factions to count and boasted the highest amount of Tier 11 Powerhouses and several Inheritance Sites of Eternal-ranked powerhouses. Unfortunately, it was enveloped by war between countless factions, and there was never a day of peace. That was why everyone from other Star Regions stayed away from the Ancient Eternity Star Region.

Baator was located in the Desolate Star Region, which was basically a newly created region by an expansion of the Astral Boundary Universe. It wasn't that strong compared to other Star Regions but was as big as others.

Of course, aside from these, some minor Star Regions existed, but they weren't that important, at least for now.

Today, I called for the meeting of the Senatorum Imperialis to discuss some important matters before my departure for the Feisuo Plane.

Besides, I have planned to bring my wives with me to go on an adventure together.

Almost all members of the Senatorum Imperialis remained the same for 2,500 years. Only High Lord Ageres retired from his post several centuries ago, and the new Magister of Domestic Affairs and Territorial Management was chosen. Surprisingly, it was Sona Sitri-Garou, sister-in-law of my son Sirzechs.

Sona, after several decades, married her former Bersker Class Servant, Loup Garou, who entered Imperialis Militarum and became Lord General of one of the Armies, Silver Lycan Army. He was an extremely strong werewolf of the Apocalypse-Class, with his physical body being unmatched at the same level. While Sona wasn't weak, she had difficulty reaching Apocalypse-Class, and she wasn't a combat-oriented person.

Her husband was very famous, actually, as he once fought five peak Warlock Monarchs simultaneously and killed them all. Those five were found on some Grade 3 Plane that we found in our Star Region. After it was proved that there didn't exist a connection between these warlocks and Canghzi Plane, we attacked.

Lord General Loup Garou led the attack.

Aside from this change, Tiamat has recently retired, and my daughter Hilda has taken her place as Commisar-General of the Commissariat.

Meanwhile, my wives Vena, and Fia, enjoyed their jobs very much, so they continued to occupy their posts to this day. However, Hela was on the verge of finding a successor to her post because she wanted to go into fights more often, especially now that turbulent times were coming. Current candidates for the post were Vali Lucifer, commander of the Khaos Brigade, and Arthur Pendragon and commander of the Sardaukar Forces.

Though Hela opted more for Arthur compared to Vali, as Arthur was more calm-headed and more suited for administrative work, and more essentially, Arthur's son with my daughter Sigurn, Artorias, who was born around a century ago, could succeed his father as Commander of the Sardaukar.

At the same time, Vali, being over 2,500 years old, didn't have children even if he had three women. Something that Vena and Fia greatly nagged him about, and Fia told me, that his wives planned some scheme to impregnate them...

And there was a new addition to the Senatorum Imperialis, who was Ecclesiarch of the Ecclesiarchy. After I had decided to ascend as God through my special method, and Hela and Sigmar, with few other trusts, did the same, we needed an effective way to gather the Power of Faith and regulate everything related to worshipping other individuals that ascended as Gods and me.

Currently, there are only two Common Gods, and the others are Lesser Gods.

Surprisingly the post of the Ecclesiarch was given to Rias, which nobody could expect. But alas, she has proven to be very responsible and has grown much during the centuries. Even though she lacked talent compared to her siblings, or other family members, she was cunning and skilled in negotiations and scheming.

Also, I wanted someone from the Imperial House to take up that post. While Rias was only a peak Super Devil, as her Soul Aptitude held her back, and she refused to take any outside help in increasing it, only her own effort, something that I was especially proud of, she was intelligent and could deal with all those religious fanatics.

Additionally, the fact she was family to the majority of Gods worshipped in the entirety of the Baator helped a lot.

Elders were also present for the meeting of the Senatrorum Imperialis.

As usual, Grayfia opened the meeting of the Senatorum Imperialis, and at first, some minor things were discussed.

"Now, for a reason, I have called this meeting of the Senatorum Imperialis."

I said with an authoritative voice.

"As many of you know, our Empire had grown enough to stop feeding on the weak, and we could now properly hunt the strong. For that, I have chosen Feisuo Plane, a Secondary Grade 2 Plane with several Supreme Gods sleeping there. This will be the first plane conquered, plundered, and absorbed into the Baator."

I stated as everyone held their breath.

For many centuries, Chthonian Empire only preyed on the weak planes and left stronger ones alone. We had rarely attacked higher-grade planes, and only when we were sure it was an easy task, and there was no backing for the factions on the plane.

The Imperials were cunning and grew in strength in shadows while devouring weaker planes, robbing them, and plundering their resources.

Centuries later, it has finally paid off, and we were strong enough to contend against stronger factions in the universe. We have several top-ranked powerhouses and even means to deter Tier 11 powerhouses from attacking the Empire.

Of course, our first target was chosen with the utmost caution, and finally, the Feisuo Plane was chosen. If we completely digest Feisuo Plane, it should increase our powers exponentially, and I could reach Lord-Class, as I have already realized my Path; the only thing that remained was to complete it.

My Path was that of The End.

The End of all existence.

I lacked only a few Laws to comprehend to finalize my Path; I predicted that my Path would compromise 6 to 7 Laws, which was almost unheard of among Arcanists.

"For this mission, I will personally enter the Feisuo Plane with my wives, to destabilize the plane and find about their exact strength; only then will we start the full invasion. There are several Supreme Stage Gods confirmed in the Feisuo Plane on the surface; we need to find out about the full strength of the plane; there should be some reason why Warlocks didn't conquer that plane."

I said as everyone nodded in agreement.

While Feisuo Plane was invaded several times by Warlocks and even a few times by some Arcanist factions, it was never conquered, even if the attackers were backed by their Warlock Emperors or Arcane Lords.

It smelled fishy.

There were two possible reasons for that. Either they had Myriad God Emperor in shadows protecting the plane, or they had some means to defeat or deter such powerhouses. If it was variant one, then it would be a bigger problem. Variant two meant that even if they had some means, they couldn't use it continuously. It probably needed more preparation and things; if not, no Warlock or Arcanists would enter the plane.

I watched the reactions of people, especially my wives.

Vena looked happy that we would be going on an "adventure"; the last time we went somewhere together was more than a century ago. Fia frowned, as she didn't like the idea of abandoning her job in favor of going on an adventure, but I knew that she was only putting on a tough front. And Hela had a bloodthirsty smile, ass she couldn't probably wait for gods to be slaughtered.

"What will the invasion force be compromised from?"

Asked Zekram.

"It will depend on the information obtained when we enter the Feisuo Plane, but the Vanguard for sure would be Khaos Brigade together with at least one Voidfleet."

While the mortal world of the Feisuo Plane was of no danger due to the fact that gods never let their worshippers grow beyond anything Tier 3, and only in occupations of Knight and Wizards. Both of them were weak paths, and one generally could not reach higher than Tier 8, which was equivalent to the Super Devil.

On planes controlled by gods, one could see Knights and Wizards no stronger than Mid-Class to High-Class, and in real combat and in terms of combat prowess, they were very weak. Gods did everything in their power to make their followers as weak as possible for them to be depending on their gods.

The real problem I was wary of were the Divine Legions of the Gods, created from the souls of their followers and reforged in Divine Power. For example, a Mighty Stage God could build a Divine Legion with tens of thousands of soldiers at a standard comparable to at least Ultimate-Class with enough time and resources.

Depending on the soul they were made of, they could be killed countless times, only to be resurrected with a bit of Divine Power. And I knew that on the planes such as Feisuo, there would be several Gods with extremely powerful Divine Legions.

The usual procedure of Warlocks was to kill God before he could unleash his Divine Legions. Arcanists, meanwhile, used various means to drain the Divine Kingdom of the Divine Power, thus cutting them the source of energy, then the killing of the Divine Legion was only a matter of time.

After the meeting of the Senatorum Imperialis ended, I met with Fia, Vena, and Hela to discuss our new adventure.

"So, what do you think about this, my lovely ladies?"

I asked with a teasing voice as I looked at my three wives. In truth, I wanted to take Bibi Dong, but she was relatively weak for a mission like this. She was still only a Titled Douluo, as only twenty or so years had passed in the Shao Universe.

Meanwhile, Hela was already a Common God and pretty strong at that. Vena and Fia were both Dimensional-Class powerhouses and were also very strong among those in the same Class.

"I think it will be fun to go on vacation together."

Said Vena with one could-say dreamy smile, as I smiled at that too.

Even though we were all busy, at least once per month, we had one day which we would spend together. I loved my wives; they were the most precious people in my life, together with my children.

I never thought that I would be such a "family" person. I knew I wasn't the best father or husband to some of my children, as I often tended to spend more time researching, practicing Magic Rules, or comprehending Laws than I wanted. Still, I was grateful that my wives always supported me with all their might.

"I am in; having some time off would be nice. Not to mention all of those gods for slaughter and all that fucking we will enjoy."

Smirked Hela seductively, as Fia frowned at her behavior and Vena licked her lips in anticipation.

"I will find some replacement for me."

Fia said, as I knew that she would, in the end, agree.

Feisuo Plane, like many other planes controlled by Gods, and especially planes in the Divine Star Region of the Astral Boundary, had an extremely backward civilization. Gods always carefully controlled every aspect of society's development, as they depended on the faith to advance, so it was respectable that the development of the Plane would be close to zero.

Together with Venelana, Grayfia, and Hela, I entered the Plane; we immediately concealed ourselves to prevent being discovered by anyone and also to avoid unnecessary troubles. Most importantly, I wasn't fond of the idea of mingling with human worshippers.

We toured several cities around the area, where we sneaked into the Feisuo Plane. From the little information we have gathered, we found out this was a typical god-controlled plane, which greatly played into our cards.

The Feisuo Plane's human world was divided into four grades: slaves, residents, freedmen, and aristocrats. Among these, slaves and residents weren't free; they couldn't leave their lord's fief. Only freedmen and aristocrats could freely travel across the land.

Another thing was that there were significant Pantheons on this Plane. Zaliah Pantheon, Titan Pantheon, Elven Pantheon, Beastmen Pantheon, Dark Gods Pantheon, Dragon Pantheon, Sea God Pantheon. A Mighty Stage God headed each Pantheon; some stronger ones had several Mighty Stage Gods, especially the human Pantehons of Zaliah Pantheon and Titan Pantheon.


Fom mortals, they were pitifully weak, beyond weak, but that was to be expected, and it was done for a purpose.

Of course, the most common power systems practiced were Knights and Wizards. There were Apprentice Level 1 to 3, which was the same as Low-Class, Middle Class was divided into Wizard/Knight Level, Grand Wizard/Knight, and Arch Wizard/Knight, and finally, Legendary Knight/Wizard that was comparable to High-Class.

From then, the only path available for inhabitants of these planes was to step onto the Divine Path and become Demigod. This bastardized path of Knights and Wizards were practically the only ways for average mortals to gain some power in the world, as other paths were cut from them.

Inhabitants were deliberately made weak, so they could not resist gods. Of course, on such an enormous plane like Feisuo, some Warlock or Arcanist inheritances were found from time to time.

Still, their founders were always ruthlessly hunted down as most vile heretics, where even Gods who were bitter enemies to no end would ally to hunt them to the end of the world.

The last thing that Gods wanted was for someone to embarge on the path of Warlock or Arcanists and eventually overthrow them. Such scenarios happen from time to time. Once, even gods of Primary Grade 2 Plane were overthrown by the rebellion of inhabitants that found several sites where Holy Spirit Warlcosk and Magister Arcanists fell.

"What now? We have a basic outline of the Plane; now we need to plan our movements?"

Asked Venelana as we were strolling in some random city under concealment spells.

"Simple. We will throw the entire mortal world into enormous war and let mortals slaughter each other, which would greatly weaken gods. After gods themselves descend to stop the situation when it becomes critical, I propose opening the Gates of Hell to release fiends and weaken gods even more. Afterward, after Gods have been weakened significantly, their Divine Kingdoms were depleted, and Divine Legions are not as strong as before, we can begin our invasion. Maybe during all of that chaos, we can even assassinate some Supreme Gods and Mighty Gods."

Explained Hela, as it seemed like a good plan.

During the planar invasion to plane controlled by gods, everyone with a good head on shoulders would look at first try to annihilate, or at least weaker, their worshippers, as Gods of the Astral Boundary were dependent on the Power of Faith.

Contrary to my Godhood, where I didn't need it and could advance my Godhood Index by myself.

Our plan in this aspect had two stages. The first would be letting mortal factions fight among themselves, and I was sure that Gods wouldn't intervene until the situation was critical. Reason for that?

Their arrogance.

Pantheons controlled all nations, meaning none gods would want to lose in the proxy war against another pantheon. So they wouldn't stop the war until it reached devastating effect, as none of them would want to lose face in front of other gods.

Afterward, we would open the Gates of Hell, straight to the Abyss, and let Fiends roam here freely. With enough luck, some Abyssal Sages would enter, kill, wreak havoc, and kill a good number of gods.

Our aim was to weaken the gods of Feuisuo by destroying their Divine Legions indirectly and weakening their Divine Kingdoms. Though, we came here to have some vacation and, most importantly, some fun... if not for that, this silent approach would be useless, and we could do it differently.

"This plan is doable. Also, we need to identify all Supreme Gods of the Feisuo Plane and their weaknesses and strengths, so we can deal with them. Are there any gods that could be used as our puppets?"

I asked with a vicious glint in my eyes.

"Yes, there are. Most specifically, gods of the Dark God Pantheon. They are an interesting bunch, as contrary to other pantheons, they are not united and are often fighting among themselves. The one that caught my eye is Goddess that is worshipped widely among Dark Elves, Spider Queen Loth."

Stated Hela, as she received some information about the gods of this Plane; surprisingly, it was from my grandson Abrasax, who sneaked in the Canghzi Plane.

In the place where he constructed his base, he captured and subjugated a large amount of the Dark Elves, who were in large numbers transported into the Baator. They worshipped this Goddess as one of their main gods.

"Then we currently have two objectives. The first is to establish pawn factions or factions that would be used by us to create more conflicts across the mortal world of the Feisuo Plane. The second is to get in contact with Spider Queen Loth."

I stated.

Rydgex City, Morrince Empire.

The Rydgex City was located at the edge of the common border between the Beastman Empire, the Elven Empire, and the human Morrince Empire; it was regarded as a major city of the Morrince Empire.

The architecture of the city was just as I would expect from a medieval city on Earth, mixed with fantasy elements of the Supernatural. One could see many people walking through the streets, often from other races, but those were mainly slaves.

It was a so-called slaver city, as it depended on the sale of slaves. It was a machine that propped Rydgex City's flourishing economy. The Beastman Empire, the Elven Empire, and the Morrince Empire fought all year long. The losers would be reduced to slaves and brought to Rydgex City by slave merchants.

Thus Rydgex City was the largest slave trade city in the Morrince Empire.

Chthonian Empire had only one type of slavery, which were the Penal Legions, which consisted of death-row criminals. It would be a shame to kill them directly, so a better solution was to use them as cannon fodder; at least they could repay society with their deaths.

We were strolling through Rydgex City; as we obtained all slaves we could get our hands on. With a bit of magic, we obtained thousands upon thousands of slaves. Most of the slaves in the Rydgex City were beastmen and half-beastmen.

Beastmen were divided into two kinds, humanoid beastmen and pure beast beastmen. Humanoid beastmen were mostly human-looking beastmen with some beastly features. However, pure beastmen were beasts who acted like humans, evolved hands and feet, and possessed an intellect not inferior to humans.

After several hours, we have gone through the entire Rydgex City, and we have obtained around 100,000 slaves. All of them were sent through a portal to a safe place, and I have done some magic precautions so that nobody could track me or anything related to this act.

Afterward, I returned with my wives to a place where we started discussing our next moves.

"They are weak; most of them are not even comparable to Mid-Class."

Stated Hela with slight disdain as she looked at tens of thousands of slaves that were eating and getting used to their new situation.

"Most of the slaves here are without any combat power, and those who have are on the average level of Apprentice Level, meaning comparable to Low-Class, only a few hundreds are of the Knight Level that is around Lower Mid-Class, and few tens are at Grand Knight, Intermediate Mid-Class and that it is. I will take some time to study this power system; I will try to invest in some method to cultivate quickly to the at least Knight / Wizard Level. With some additions, I should be able easily to create new Levels for their power system; as truth to be told, they are rather primitive."

My aim in this was to increase the power of the natives. Additionally, this could be useful in other planar conquests as the power system of Knights and Wizards was most common among worshippers of gods across countless planes.

"Then where shall we start?"

Asked Vena as we were discussing the future development.

"What about the Red Earth Wasteland?"

Stated Hela a rhetorical question.

The Red Earth Wasteland was a vast expanse of wasteland at the junction of the Morrince Empire, the Titan Empire, the Beastman Empire, and the Elven Empire. There was only a single river in the wasteland, the Rhine River, running through the entire wasteland.

It was a place filled with countless orcs, goblins, bugbears, other magical beasts, and other dangerous creatures.

The most commendable thing about the Red Earth Wasteland was its superior geographical location, from which one could go to the four empires and trade with them. However, at the same time, its geographical location was bad.

Although the four empires were not willing to establish a city in the Red Earth Wasteland, once a city was successfully established in the Red Earth Wasteland, then it was bound to give rise to major disputes. This forsaken place basically had no way to attract those powerful forces.

"It would be doable. We could easily create all things that Red Earth Wasteland lacks with our technological level. Additionally, if we have enough people with superior strength, then repelling attacks from mortals would be of no problem. From Empire, we could get a steady supply of resources such as weapons and armors, far superior to anything on the Feisuo Plane. Of course, we need to act slowly and low, to avoid suspicion Gods as long as possible."

I knew that sooner or later, Gods would sooner or later notice this, but then it would be too late. I could easily block their sight to the Red Earth Wasteland with my magic and superior strength or interfere with their prying eyes.

"We need to be careful not to bring any kind of Arcanotech here. Canghzi Plane was invaded in the past by Golem Dynasty, and they are very well aware of the existence of Mechanical Legions and of similar things."

Stated Hela as I nodded.

This was a good point indeed.

Many planes had great knowledge about Warlock Alchemy or Arcanotech used by Arcanists. Suppose we showed too high capabilities in these terms. In that case, Gods could easily deduce that these forces were backed by us, invaders of the Feisuo Plane.

Several months later, Red Earth Wasteland, Feisuo Plane.

Among the slaves, we have chosen the leader to act as their leader and some sort of our Champion. After several months, most of the slaves were healed and trained in military tactics and combat. Their leader was a wolf beastman named Romulus, which was funny for specific reasons.

He was the only one whom I gave immediate power increase, and he had power comparable to an Ultimate-Class. Geniue one, meaning he could fight and kill with some luck, even Lesser Divinity Stage - Feeble Gods. This was already high enough combat prowess on the Feisuo Plane, as many gods were of this Stage.

I have collected hundreds of Knight Breathing Techniques, and Wizard Meditation Techniques used as cultivation methods by natives of the Feisuo Plane. With a bit of tweak, I have managed to adjust them enough to be more effective and allow the majority of their practitioners to reach higher levels of power more easily.

To propagate this goal, I have created several cultivation methods, each of different qualities, that were distributed among former slaves.

The highest grade techniques could allow one to cultivate Myth Wizard / Myth Knight, which was a newly created level by me, and had comparable combat prowess as lower-end Grand-Class, or in terms of God Path, Demigod Divinity Stage. Of course, reaching Myth Wizard / Myth Knight required some special procedures. Rather, it required fusion with the Martial Soul of the Grand Commander Level magical beast.

I took inspiration from the Douluo Cultivation system when creating this. In truth, I wanted to develop a system that would make its practitioners absolutely depend on us, to advance further.

Because Grand Commander Level magical beasts were rare in planes where gods ruled, due to gods annihilating them, as they would be a threat to their worshippers, practitioners of this new power system would need us to provide them with "Martial Souls" to increase their strength. Even other resources to develop their "Martial Souls", so we would have them within our grasp.

After several weeks, Romulus and his people established a city in the Red Earth Wasteland, with a bit of help from me, which was called a Miracle City due to how fast it was constructed.

It quickly became a beacon for anyone who wanted to live everyday life in the Red Earth Wasteland, as thousands upon thousands of half-beastmen went and joined the Miracle City each day. This was good, but not enough, as our forces needed more development to be useful in our plans, but we were getting there.

Red Earth Wasteland was full of monsters and fights. Countless bandit brigands were roaming unhindered, and the lack of any kind of order was self-evident. Only the Miracle City had something similar to order under the leadership of the City Lord Romulus.

In the meantime, we were investigating more about the gods that were ruling the Feisuo Plane. While the Dark Gods Faction was proven as best to be our target, due to how loosely they existed, there were other targets, for example, Dragon Pantheons, that could be easily subjugated if I brought Crom Cruach here if he defeated their Supreme Stage Gods.

Dragons could be a valuable asset, or if they don't submit, then valuable resources could be harvested from their corpses.

I predicted that Miracle City would have enough power to establish a Kingdom within one or two years and soon could expand towards other areas in the Red Earth Wasteland. If they manage to establish an Empire, it would be for the best, as its establishment would spark an international war across the entire plane with all neighbors of the Red Earth Wasteland.

In the middle of the Miracle City was the citadel, which served as a house for my wives and me as we were staying here.

Everybody had some role in the management of Miracle City. While the wolf beastman Romulus was City Lord, Hela trained their military forces and soldiers to be the best of the best, while Fia was managing their administrative structure and creating as effective one as possible. Vena was making sure that trade was going on and making deals with various chambers of commerce and merchants.

I must admit that this entire trip to the Feisuo Plane was a heaven-sent vacation for me. Even though I abdicated from the post of Emperor of the Chthonian Empire long ago, I still had many duties to attend to, as I participated more in research of Magic and worked on several projects with Ajuka to improve our Arcanotech incorporate Warlock Alchemy into our tech.

Here, I had much free time; I could spend it lazying around or spending time with my beloved wives.

Even Fia started enjoying our time at the Feisuo Plane.

Right now, we were planning on entering the Underground World of the Feisuo Plane to search for their "dark races", I wanted to see if I could convert some of them to my forces, especially some like Kindreds, who even now were one of the major races of the Chthonian Empire of the Baator.

"How is the state of their army?"

I asked Hela, who now entered the courtyard where I was reading a magic tome native to the Feisuo Plane and drinking my tea.

"Pretty good. All soldiers have achieved at least Knight Apprentice Level 1, while many have achieved Level 2 and 3, and hundreds are at the Knight Level. Training of Wizards is progressing more slowly, but soon it will yield the results."

I nodded as this was something to be expected.

"We have given them armor and weapons exported from the Empire. Even though they are trash quality, among mortals of the Feisuo Plane, they are already considered as best of the best. With this equipment, they would have a great advantage over other foes."

Smirked Hela as she sat down next to me.

Compared to the equipment that other mortal factions had in their arsenal. They were armed far better thanks to scraps from the Empire. Still, even worthless armors and weapons of the Imperial Army that were created as a practice by young blacksmiths were of far superior quality compared to the mortal factions under the rule of the gods.

And thanks to Hela's training, they were approaching the standard of the Elite Legion, though not on the level of the Armies of the Imperialis Militarum; they were slowly nearing that level.

"Also, we have gotten information about Apple of Wisdom is about to ripe in the Feisuo Plane."

Stated Hela as I sharpened immediately.

Among the countless planes, there were only several Wisdom Apple Trees. The wisdom apple tree took 10,000 years to sprout, 10,000 years to blossom, and 10,000 years to bear fruit. Each time, it would only bore 1 wisdom apple. Most of the known Wisdom Apple Trees were located either under the protection of extremely frightening individuals or in dangerous locations where almost no one dared to enter.

No matter how much of a waste they used to be, anyone who ate a wisdom apple would possess frightening intelligence and become a super-freak cultivation genius. By then, any knowledge could be easily comprehended at a glance.

Practically each Warlock Emperor and Arcane Lord ate one of those, and many other powerhouses that were called unparalleled across the entire Astral Boundary ate Wisdom Apple. It would be a great boon for me if I ate, as it would greatly enhance my comprehensive abilities, which were even now monstrous.

"And we also have a piece of second important news. Last week I captured some God of Feisuo, he was weak, but he had important information. Apparently, there is an inheritance site of some powerful Warlock at the 9th Layer of the Underground World of the Feisuo Plane. It is said to be the dwelling of a terrible existence of the Cangzhi Plane, an existence more terrible than Gods and Fiends."

By logic, if such existence is more powerful than gods, then it should be above Mighty Stage Gods, which would be equivalent to the Warlock Monarch. This site should be more minimal than that of the Warlock Monarch, but that is not possible, as Feisuo Plane has even Supreme Gods, meaning they would have long ago breached this site.

So only possibility would leave; it was the legacy of the Warlock Emperor. Only then would this inheritance site remain unbreached.

Each Warlock Emperor attempted to conquer the Feisuo Plane, only for them to control only some parts of the world until they were slowly pushed out. Though this was a rarity, as Central Star Region was enormous, and Warlocks rarely made wide-scaled conquest in other Star Regions.

Though during the time of Time Emperor, the first Warlock Emperor, there was an enormous wide-scale campaign against the Divine Star Region in collaboration with the Arcane Lord of Mysteries. Together, their armies conquered countless planes in the Divine Star Region until several Myriad God Emperors pushed them out after taking over one of the Grade 1 Planes and killing its Myriad God Emperor.

Even though they were pushed out of the Divine Star Region, they obtained an astronomical amount of wealth and precious resources.

There were a few inheritance sites of the Warlock Emperors outside of the Canghzi Plane as a whole, and even there, the majority of them were located in the Core World of the Canghzi Plane, outside of my reach unless I was so powerful I could force my way in.

So in a certain sense, this was a priceless opportunity to obtain such an inheritance for me. Inheritances of powerhouses such as Warlock Emperors are priceless and would be greatly useful even for me.

Even though Warlock Methods were mainly useless for Devils, there existed exemptions. There was a high possibility that Devils could practice methods or some that could be easily adjusted by us to be suitable for our use.

"We will depart immediately for the Dark Forest. The Apple of Wisdom still has time until it ripens; in the meantime, I want to take a look at the Dark Forest and the possible inheritance site of the Warlock Emperor."

I said as everyone nodded in agreement.

The Dark Forest lay at the deepest part of the 9th floor of the Feisuo Plane's underground world, and it was perpetually covered by a black fog. Under the effect of the black fog, even races with the innate ability of night vision would have their line of sight reduced to 10 meters. Moreover, the black fog had a restraining effect on spells.

Additionally, there were countless terrifying demonic plants inside the Dark Forest. Powerhouses under the God Level / Ultimate-Class were basically sure to be killed there. And even for gods, it was a hazardous area.

"Fia and I will open a portal to the Baator to bring in some of our forces into the Feisuo Planes. We have established our foothold; now we can bring in agents of the Department of Information and Executioners from the Execution Temple to infiltrate factions and gather information for us."

I said.

"When will the invasion commence?"

Asked Hela with anticipation.

"The first step is almost done; we have gathered enough information about their gods and their exact strength; now the only thing which remains is to capture a suitable god and obtain crucial information about Supreme Gods and the secret why this plane has never fully fallen to the Warlock invasions. Then we can start phase 2 and create war in the mortal world."

I noted as everyone nodded that our plan was soon coming to fruition.

[Trafford]

After we arrived at the 9th Layer of the Underground World of the Feisuo Plane, it was enormous, even far more extensive than the Grade 8 Plane, which was understandable, and was inhabited by countless so-called "Dark Races".

While I was tempted to go and subjugate all those "Dark Races" at once, as they were not that strong, they were more powerful than the mortals above because they had a far higher ratio of the powerhouses compared to weak ones.

While the population of these "Dark Races" was lower than the population above, they had far more Legend-ranked powerhouses and even Demigod Divinity Stage powerhouses than those Empires above the underground world.

But now, it was not time to do anything against "Dark Races", because it would alert the gods, which would be troublesome.

I did some analysis on the Dark Forest, which was the location where I currently was together with my wives.

The Goddess of the Weave created the weave by relying on planar laws, which were said to cover the entire plane. Interestingly, the fog was blocking the weave here, and the weave was strong from what I have researched.

Not only was it created by the Supreme Stage God, but it was created from stolen methods of the Magic Note Imperial Warlock Court / Warlock Dynasty, which created something similar on the Canghzi Plane until it was destroyed.

And with the addition of some remains from Arcanist factions that attempted to invade other god-controlled planes, the weave was created here.

We strolled through the fog, which had some hallucinogen effects and created illusions, but it was effective only on the people beneath beings of law, so on me, it didn't have much effect.

Soon enough, we crossed the gray river that was located in the Dark Forest. In our sight appeared a palace towering high into the clouds that looked like it propped the dome of heaven.

I saw the heads of countless extraordinary life forms embedded into the huge palace. There was the head of an Archaic Dragon, a head of an Absolute Beginning Giant, a head of an Abyssal Fiend Sage, a head of a Supreme Divinity Stage God, a head of a High Elven Monarch, a head of a 9-Headed Dragon, a head of a Primordial Earthen, and the heads of other horrifying existences.

All of them were either existences on the level of Tier 9 or Tier 10, especially the head 9-Headed Dragon, which was from the corpse of one who reached Tier 11 or even higher.

While for some, these things may be considered priceless, for me, they were only average. All of the named entities I could kill by myself and research their severed heads were useless; only a living specimen had some value for me.

"This place is under the protection of an exceptionally powerful barrier..."

I muttered as I gathered Decomposition Magic Rule and hit the barrier with the power of the Decomposition Magic Rule, shattering it at the first attack. This power was already on the level of some weak Warlock Emperor, so I was aware that my combat prowess had reached higher ends of the entire universe, even without officially stepping into the Lord-Class.

At the gate stood a 6-meter-tall, 3-head, humanoid statue holding a trident. Of its three heads, one was a human head, another was a dragon head, and the last one was a devil head.

Suddenly the stone statue cracked and held the trident in a combat-ready position.

"Who dares to barge into the palace of the Taboo Lord?"

Roared the statue.

"So it is the inheritance site of the Taboo Emperor... not bad."

Muttered Hela. It could be better, but we could also use inheritances left by the Taboo Lord.

Taboo Lord was one of the strongest Warlocks of the Cangzhi Plane in history. The planes found around the Cangzhi Plane were his domain, and no one dared disobey his orders.

He was one with the strongest combat prowess among the eight Warlock Emperors.

Taboo Lord also comprehended several Laws at the top of his cultivation, allowing him to compete with even the stronger Arcane Lords. Though his mastery over those Laws was shit, it still gave him a significant advantage over the rest of the Warlock Emperors.

Taboo Lord established the Bloodline Warlock path, and it was still one of the two peak paths leading to the power of the Cangzhi Plane.

"Shut up, Gatekeeper."

I snorted as I released my own pressure that eclipsed the power released by the Gatekeeper of the Taboo Lord.

"You are an only relic of a long-fallen powerhouse, who cannot maintain his own form and must seal himself in order to survive."

I shouted.

In the end, the Path of Warlock was a cultivation path and thus was flawed and didn't bid well with more magical Univers such as the Astral Boundary. This critical flaw has shown itself in the Warlock Emperor Realm, as powerhouses of that rank had lowered lifespan considerably due to some problems with their cultivation system.

Unless they achieved Eternal-Rank, they could only seal themselves.

The Gatekeeper was Holy Spirit Warlock ranked powerhouse. However, it was artificially made by the Taboo Lord by merging the bloodlines and genes of various species, creating this abomination of nature.

But in front of my power, which was significantly enhanced after condensing Godhood and becoming god, and more at that, Common God, even the Gatekeeper, lost his composure in a short time after it tried to resist my pressure.

Shortly, I created high gravity and used the Law of Dark Light to create Dark Light Chains to immobilize the Gatekeeper, as Hela knocked it out.

"Don't kill it."

I said, as Hela already had her Necroswords in her hands and wanted to decapitate the Gatekeeper.

"He will be useful for our research."

I noted as I created countless binding runes across his body and inserted several Arcanotech devices into his body to render Gatekeeper completely useless.

His body was priceless as it was one of the great works of the Taboo Lord; Empire could gain a lot by studying its bloodline and genetic composition.

I subjugated the Gatekeeper as soon as possible, mainly because I knew that creations like him could be dangerous even to me if he decided to sacrifice his life to kill me. In the end, it was created by the Taboo Lord, who was highly proficient in life creation and genetic manipulation, and his knowledge of bloodlines was unparalleled across the entire Astral Boundary Universe.

I went to search through the inner area of the palace, which was covered in flowers in full bloom that looked like a scene taken out of a fairy tale; there was a dais with a jade table.

There were two small jade boxes and a jade book on the jade table.

The two small jade boxes and the jade book radiated a brilliant light that illuminated the whole palace beautifully.

"Taboo Text."

I muttered as I observed the content of one of the boxes.

Inside the two small jade boxes, there was a total of two beads.

One jade box contained the aforementioned chaotic bead, which was needed to cultivate the Chaotic Imperishable Body. The other jade box contained a taboo bead, which was required to cultivate the original version of the Taboo Text.

Time Text, Taboo Text, Demonic Divine Text, Star Text, Death Text, Golem Text, and Magic Note Text were known as the strongest texts created by human Warlocks of the Cangzhi Plane. These 7 texts were the culmination of life's work of the strongest 7 Warlock Emperors of the Cangzhi Plane.

While to me, these things were directly mainly useless, but indirectly, I could research those methods and possibly incorporate something into our power system. For a long time, I have been researching the path for Devils to reach basically our equivalent of the Warlock Monarch, as not everyone could comprehend Laws, and some people were without enough talent.

My idea was to create a new possibility of reaching Tier 9 for Devils. While our power system gave us high combat prowess, it was hard to reach Apocalypse-Class compared to Warlocks reaching Warlock Monarch.

Countless Super Devils were stuck up in their ranks, mainly due to low Law Comprehension talent, which resulted from low Soul Aptitude. This was problematic for Chthonian Empire, as we lost in numbers compared to Warlocks, who have hundreds of Warlock Monarchs.

Empire barely had altogether around 40 Apoclapypse-Class individuals. This result was mainly because of our power system.

But with these methods from Taboo Lord, I believe we can create a path mainly by body strengthening that will be able to reach a new realm, comparable to the Warlock Monarch for Devils who lacked Soul Aptitude for attaining Apocalypse-Class.

"Did you find anything of value, Zeo? On my end, this place is totally empty."

Complained Vena as she strolled through the halls of the palace of Taboo Lord.

"Probably the only thing of any value here is the legacy left here by the Taboo Lord. Any other resources were probably not even left here by Taboo Lord."

Stated Grayfia, who returned with Hela, both of them returned empty-handed.

"We have obtained enough. Living Gatekeeper and the Taboo Lord's legacy would greatly increase our Empire's power. Now we will lure out Lolth so we can get insider info about the Gods. Gatekeeper's mind is protected by the power of the Taboo Lord and some mysterious formation; unfortunately, right now, I am not able to breach these defenses."

I stated as all of my wives nodded their heads in agreement.

If I could access the memories of the Gatekeeper, it would be for the best, but the protections that the Taboo Lord left on him were, truth to be told, really frightening. I couldn't read his memories, and even for others on a similar level of the Taboo Lord, it would be a hard thing to do.

On this level of the Underground World is a high number of Dark Elves and other species that worshipped Spider Queen Lolth; thus, I sent Hela and Grayfia to kidnap some of their leaders who had methods of contacting Lolth in time of crisis to lure her out, best would be if she descended down onto the mortal plane.

Two hours later, Hela and Fia returned with captured Dark Elven woman, clad in something that reminded a priest's gown.

"Who did you capture?"

I asked while analyzing the captured dark-elven woman, who radiated some amount of Divine Power, signifying her rank as Demigod Divinity Stage Powerhouse. At the same time, her Divine Power is reminiscent of the Spider Queen Lolth.

"Pope of the Church of Lolth on this plane, she is called Glidecar, and is one of the Dark Elven Demigod Divinity Stage powerhouses, on the top of that being Lolth's Pope, she is also her Chosen One."

Stated Hela as she woke up the Pope of the Church of Lolth Glidecar while she remained under magical bonds.

Clearly, the Pope of the Church of Lolth was totally petrified, sensing our aura, as she nervously looked at me.

"Now, you will summon your Goddess Lolth here, do you understand?"

I asked as she nodded nervously and went to carry out my order in a moment.

Soon enough phantom of the Spider Queen Goddess Lolth appeared. Her lower torso was that of an enormous spider, while her upper body was of an astonishingly beautiful woman. Spider Queen Lolth was known as a cruel, bloodthirsty trickster, and especially a person who would betray another in a split of second.

"Only an avatar? Come down here properly."

I frowned as I released my power and used my power to drag Lolth from her Divine Kingdom to the mortal plane, so her real body was here.

In front of my body, she was no different from an ant, so dragging her down was no problem.

[Trafford]

Space around the phantom of the Spider Queen Lolth cracked as the Divine Kingdom of Spider Queen Lolth appeared, and her phantom dispersed while sucking force brought out the real body of the Goddes of Drows to the Mortal Plane.

After her body was dragged to the Mortal Plane, the space crack leading to her Divine Kingdom closed automatically.

"Now, we can start."

I walked in front of the Spider Queen Lolth and placed my right hand on her forehead as several mysterious symbols appeared on her head; as I started reading her memories and everything she knew.

"So this is it... interesting. Unfortunately for you, my dear goddess, you have outlived your usefulness."

I stated as I killed her instantly, leaving behind only her Divine Spark. I picked up her Divine Spark and drained it immediately; unfortunately, it didn't increase my Godhood Index much, as Lolth was too weak for something like that.

I chose to kill her, mainly because she couldn't be trusted, as a person who would betray another without batting an eye. Even if she signed a Blood and Soul Void-Geass, I would never take a person with characteristics of Lolth into the Chthonian Empire.

"Did you find anything useful from her memories?"

Asked Grayfia soon after I was done.

"Yes, there are 10 Supreme Divinity Stage Gods in the Feisuo Plane, known as Primordials. The reason why no Warlock Emperor could fully occupy Feisuo Plane and often controlled only the majority of the plane or took some resources and left is due to the existence of Empyrean-Grade Artifact, which could be activated collective by all Supreme Divinity Stage Gods, which allowed them to kill even powerhouses strong as Warlock Emperors if needed. Of course, this method had its drawbacks. After using it, all Primordial Gods fall into a deep slumber and need a lot of time to recuperate. Though it has enough destructive prowess to hurt and injure mighty entities such as Taboo Lord or Arcane Lords that invaded Feisuo Plane."

I stated as the situation wasn't as bad as previously expected. I also got an identity of all Supreme Divinity Stage Gods and some locations where some of them were slumbering, as Lolth had rather extensive knowledge about the movements of the other gods.

Each Pantheon had one Supreme Divinity Stage God, while three Supreme Stage Gods, with the most powerful being the Goddess of Weave Gargarstave, were so-called Neutral Gods. She was the only one who didn't need to go to slumber after each use of the artifact because of her control over the weave, which helped her to distribute the backslash.

Additionally, obtaining Empyrean-Grade Artifact sounded good, as Chthonian Empire had only a few of the Empyrean-Grade Artifacts, which were obtained either through many hardships or great luck as they were precious.

For example, the Phalanx-Class Space Fortress that was located in the 9th Layer of Baator Nessus was also comparable to the Empyrean-Grade Artifact.

"Hela take out the corpse of the god from the Zaliah Pantheon and leave it here... we will put the blame for Lolth's death on Zaliah; with luck, those idiots from Dark Gods Pantheon will instantly attack those of the Zaliah Pantheon and kill each other at least some of them until other Pantheon's intervene. In the meantime, we will start war across the entire mortal plane; after all, when Dark Gods Pantheon attacks Zaliah Pantheon, the majority of gods would watch it instead of monitoring the mortal plane."

I ordered as Hela went to work to fabricate the "crime scene".

"At first, we will need to locate and kill two neutral Supreme Divinity Stage Gods, Irtarr and Khonglir. Both of them are without any faction, and right now, killing Goddes of Weave would do more damage than good."

Irtarr was God of Destruction, and in terms of destructive ability, he was the most powerful god of the Feisuo Plane; if not for Gargarstave having absolute control over weave, he would have reigned as supreme hegemon of the Feisuo Gods.

Meanwhile, Khonglir was God of the Order, who often acted as a mediator between various Pantheons, especially when Supreme Gods were in some kind of conflict; his main task was to maintain a certain balance across the Feisuo Plane's gods, mainly because if outsiders attacked them so that they could defend themselves.

"I think it would be most productive to kill Irtarr at first. He is the strongest combatant and is a typical hermit, nobody would probably even notice that he was killed in the first place, and they will know only when it is too late. Additionally, the fact that he has the least amount of worshippers is playing into our cards, as most of them are cultists who are wanted by all Pantheons aside from the Dark Gods Pantheon."

Proposed Vena as we all agreed with her in that aspect.

Irtarr's worshippers didn't have the best reputation across the mortal world of the Feisuo Plane, and they were cultists that sometimes had an even worse reputation than Churches devoted to the Dark Gods Pantheon, which was already pretty low.

"After I obtained Wisdom Apple, we can start our move. Fia, do you have a list of species that could be either subjugated and be integrated into the Chthonian Empire?"

I asked shortly after.

Empire always welcomed those who had some skill and swore their loyalty to the Baator and Chthonian Empire under Blood and Soul Void-Geass. During these two and a half thousand years, we have recruited countless species into the Empire, from planes were have visited or conquered.

"Of course, most prominent are Kindreds, Dragons, and Dwarves. Apparently, there are several millions of dwarves inhabiting the Feisuo Plane, which is a lot, and they don't have very good relationships with human countries that are periodically waging war on them. Dragons could be easily recruited if some of our strong dragons defeat theirs. At the same time, Kindreds are even less of the concert, and the only thing needed is to send Pale Blood and force them to join under bloodline pressure."

"I will call for Crom Cruach and either Brunestud or Alucard to take care of these matters, while the situation with Dwarves could be handled by either Vena or you. They have only one Mighty Divinity Stage God, Paladin God of Dwarves, who could be easily dealt with if needed. Right now, we are going to search for the Wisdom Apple."

I stated while we left the Underground World of the Feisuo Plane and returned to the Miracle City.

If possible, I wanted to take the entire Wisdom Apple Tree and replant it at the Baator, probably within the gardens of the Imperial Palace, in the Sanctus Imperialis. It would be a shame for it to be destroyed during the extraction of the Planar Core.

The only way to evolve a plane fast was to let the Planar Core of the Plane to absorb other planar cores, which would result in the Plane advancing to a higher grade.

***

Several Months Later, Miracle City - Amaris Kingdom

It was unheard of for some factions to establish a kingdom in the Red Earth Wasteland, but it happened.

Amidst all of the chaos between gods, our mortal pawns started moving and conquering everything in their path. Soon after our adventure trip, Dark Gods Pantheon attacked Zaliah Pantheon and Ruler of Night Moganot, and one of the Primary Gods of Zaliah Pantheon, Prados God of Light, fought, and both of them ended up severely injured.

Though the conflict didn't end here, and till now, gods from Dark Gods Pantheon and Zaliah Pantheon often clashed and fought to the death, till now, several gods from both pantheons have already fallen. However, all of them were only Lesser Divinity Stage Gods, either Weak or Feeble stages.

The best thing was a huge wave of insurrections and rebellions across the entire Morrince Empire, as worshippers of Dark Gods and their Churches wroke havoc, and their converted nobles attacked Empire, so Morrince Empire had its hands full with their own problems.

Other neighbors of the Red Earth Wasteland, namely the Elven Empire, Titan Empire, and Beastman Empire, stayed out of the conflict under orders of their Pantheons as they just stood aside and watched the show that was unfolding.

Thus, within several weeks, the entire Red Earth Wasteland fell into the control of the Amaris Kingdom, which subsequently defeated raids from the Titan Empire and Beastman Empire, though apparently confrontation with the Beastman Empire seemed an inevitable enormous amount of Half-Beastmen concentrated within the Amaris Kingdom.

Though, there was still a lot of space for expansion for the Amaris Kingdom, west and north of its borders. North of the newly established Amaris Kingdom, Desert Empire was laying, where countless gods from neutral factions were concentrating, thus making it a suitable target.

An even better target for expansion lay west to the Amaris Kingdom's borders, where several Kingdom Unions, various states, and other nations were and often waged war against each other in an attempt to establish an Empire.

Right now, all factions on the Mortal Plane were infiltrated by Agents from the Intelligence Department and Executioners from the Execution Temple; even Churches of Gods were no exception to this.

Apple of Wisdom was soon too ripe, and even now, people started swarming there, Gods included. Even for countless gods of the Feisuo Plane, the Apple of Wisdom was a great temptation. Additionally, there was a high possibility that foreigners would sneak into the Plane to compete for the Apple of Wisdom.

Past few days I have spent lazying around in bed with my wives, fulfilling our marriage duties. Our time on the Feisuo Plane was one nice holiday, as all of us had a lot of free time just to laze around, something that was rare during our time in the Baator.

My wives had their official duties, and I focused on my research to increase my strength as much as possible, aside from doing some side projects with the Magisterium of Arcanotech to develop either new technologies or weaponry.

"After we obtain Apple of Wisdom, we will head and deal with gods presiding over the Desert Empire, so our pawns could conquer it. After that, Amaris could become an Empire and create a huge war between Titan Empire, Morrince Empire, and Beastmen Empire. Afterward, we can open the Gates of Hell and enjoy the show."

I said to my wives as we were all on one huge king-sized bed after another round of having sex.

"We should go on holidays like this more often."

Muttered Vena as she snuggled closer to may, as all three of us were covered by blanket after we rested after the intense season.

"Indeed we should; it would be nice."

I answered as it would be nice to travel through the Universe and maybe even to some other Universes with some spectacular places to see. Right now, it was not an appropriate time for such a thing, but later, when I got a lot stronger and Empire was a long-established faction in the Astral Boundary, it would be suitable to travel.

[Trafford]

Several months later

Golden Strait was a unique place across not only Feisuo Plane but also across the entire Astral Boundary Universe.

The reason for that was it was a natural Anti-Energy Area that was created here due to the presence of the Wisdom Apple Tree. Also, it had an extremely strong suppression area, as even gods would be suppressed down to the Tier 3 Level of power, which itself was astounding.

Only those who reached a very high level of power could resist it.

Right now, we were observing the Golden Strait as various players gathered here. From our observations, there were several gods, mainly those at the Great Divinity Stage, and even some Mighty Divinity Stage Gods were present.

Additionally, to gods, some foreigners managed to sneak up into the Feisuo Plane, just for the Apple of Wisdom. There were a few warlocks, but all of them were only Infinity Warlocks, so they would soon be killed.

And just as I thought about that, a random Mighty Stage God who was arguing with other gods noticed these warlocks and killed them; with one swing of his sword, his Divine Kingdom powered up that.

"Zeo, there is a group of fiends over there."

Said Fia as she tugged my sleeve, as I saw a small group of three fiends at the Abyssal King stage appearing from shadows, while soon forth appeared, who was Abyssal Sage. The Abyssal Sage was concealing himself as Abyssal King, while the other three fiends were concealing their power as Abyssal Grand Duke. They probably wanted to play fishermen, hunt for gods, and people entering to search for the Apple of Wisdom.

"This is good; if such strong fiends appeared now, we don't need to summon them through the Gates of Hell. Hela sends a message to the Amaris to start the conflict with Morrince Empire and other mortal factions. When the time is ready, activate the Sacrifice Protocol."

I said as Hela did what I said.

We remained hidden with Vena, Fia, and Hela until the Golden Island barrier opened.

"It is starting..."

I muttered as I watched the Mighty God of the Dark Gods Pantheon appear, as he instantly rushed at the Mighty God of the Zaliah Pantheon who was present, Dragoni. Obviously, Moganot must have used countless treasures to heal himself from suffered injuries so he could compete for the Apple of Wisdom.

Other Mighty Stage Gods were Lion God Arcath from the Beastmen Pantheon and Sea Goddes Daphne.

"After the barriers open... it would be good to kill all those who enter."

Proposed Grayfia as I looked at her; she wasn't usually the person to suggest a slaughter; I would expect it from Hela cause she was still pretty bloodthirsty, but even hearing Grayfia wasn't that strange as she was pragmatist and realist, it was logical to dispose of all of these gods, as it would greatly benefit us.

"That seems doable... most probably they would think fiends did it."

I said, as suddenly I felt someone teleport here while concealing his aura. Unfortunately for a person, I instantly knew who it was.

Supreme Divinity Stage God, it was Khonglir, the God of Order, one of the most enigmatic gods of the Feisuo Plane.

"Did you sense that?"

I asked my wives as they nodded their heads in agreement. All of them were top powerhouses in the Chthonian Empire and were geniuses by the standards of the Astral Boundary.

"One of the mysteries appeared."

Stated Hela, bloodthirsty for a good fight.

"You will not. I will personally go and capture Khonglir...alive. I need to search his memories and about secrets of this plane."

Hearing that, Hela reluctantly nodded, but then again, she looked at other remaining ods and participants here, and her "joy" returned, as she could still "play" with other preys.

Thus we have observed the fight in the shadows, as Mogamot and Dragoni fought to the death, as soon Dragoni started showing an advantage in their fight because of some injuries that Mogamot suffered from his fight with Prados were showing up.

Soon enough, a vast tremor ran through the entire Golden Straits as the barrier around the Golden Island was opened for people to come in. Of course moment the barrier opened, Mogamot and Dragoni stopped their fight and rushed to the opening.

Following them were most of the gods and other people who were here for the Apple of Wisdom. At the same time, we waited and observed the situation. Not only us but also those fiends from the Abyss who were concealing their strength stayed back and watched how it would unfold.

"We can go in... Vena and Fia will go together. Hela, I know that you will go alone, so be careful. I will go and search for Wisdom Apple, aside from capturing Khonglir."

I instructed.

Hela wanted to cause as much carnage as possible, and her combat style was especially dangerous even to her allies if she unleashed some AOE attacks. Meanwhile, Grayfia and Venelana would be best to go together, as they could support each other in case of need.

I was very careful, even if my enemies were much weaker.

There is a high possibility that there were some dangerous entities on our level in the Golden Island. Even though my power has grown to a terrifying degree, I was always ever careful, even if some may call me a coward. In the end, I will laugh at their deaths sooner or later.

 

[Trafford]

After most of the participants in this "expedition" had entered the Golden Island, we entered too. It was interesting to be on the Golden Island, as even now, I feel a bit suppressed from the Golden Island's Anti-Energy Zone.

"Maybe I should transport this entire area into the Baator... it would make either wonderful prison or something similar."

As I walked through the forests of the Golden Island, I said to myself, searching for the Apple Wisdom Tree and God of Order Khonglir.

Khonglir is one of the few Supreme Gods that is not in slumber, but I have a hunch that neither rest of them are. I think that Lolth didn't have enough information about the state of the Supreme Gods of other Pantheons as they are either kept secret, or she herself was told false information.

Golden Island wasn't that big, and even under suppression, I could scan a large part of the Golden Island effortlessly, and soon I located Khonglir, who was my secondary target, right after the Apple of Wisdom.

Khonglir was already near the place where the Apple Wisdom Tree was located.

"As expected of a Supreme God, he is already nearing the place where Apple Wisdom Tree is located."

I said as I sensed and saw how Hela was slaughtering Gods and other people entering this place. As always, the entire place was filled with carnage, severed body parts were everywhere as blood flowed in rivers, and Hela enjoyed every single second of that.

Fortunately, Grayfia and Venelana were more moderate in eliminating gods and other people. After Hela disposed of her current toys, she went to search for Fiends cause one of them was Abyssal Sage. Hela probably wanted a stronger target with whom she could "play" more.

"I should get to go."

I said as I went to the place where Khonglir was and observed him from the shadows. I observed Khonglir for some time, analyzing his strength, strength, and everything. In the end, I came to the conclusion that he is no threat, as he is several times weaker than me; in truth, he is weaker than even Abyssal Sage Fiend who sneaked into the Feisuo Plane.

Of course, this was not counting his power as he used his Divine Kingdom, but I would never let Khonglir have that opportunity.

I took out my Mystic Code Rosenkreutz, which was reforged as Holy Grade Artifact, and activated Decomposition Magic Rule to my degree high enough to cripple Khonglir, but not enough to kill him instantly, as that would be contra-productive.

In truth, I was planning to forge myself a new Mystic Code in the future that would be at least Empyrean Grade with the potential to evolve. Unfortunately, Rosenkreutz was made from inferior materials at the start, so reforging it could only increase it to Holy Grade.

I have decided to go for Bladestaff, and I was still collecting resources, mainly by exchanging them with members of the Longinus Dreizhen Orden, to garden unique and special resources across the entire Universe.

Then I only needed to find someone who would forge that weapon.

Till then, Rosenkreutz still had its uses.

I instantly located where the Divine Spark in Khonglir's body was located and attacked the spot with my Decomposition Magic Rule. The great advantage of the Decomposition Magic Rule was that it was formless; it couldn't be seen or found.

In a split of a second, I only heard Khonglir scream in pain as he collapsed down on the ground, paralyzed, unable to move.

I then walked to the Khonglir, who lay on the ground, as I put my right hand over his head and started forcefully reading his memories. He tried to resist, but his resistance was futile even though he was Supreme God.

Mainly because my Decomposition Magic Rule hit his Divine Spark, his Divine Spark cracked a bit, and his Divine Energy reversed in the flow of it, meaning he could not control even an ounce of his Divine Energy, meaning Khonglir was left powerless.

Soon enough, I obtained all information I desired from his mind by ripping it apart. Khonglir was now in a state where he could be defeated even by the average Warlock Monarch; he couldn't even access his Divine Kingdom due to a fractured Divine Spar.

And Gods of the Astral Boundary God Path who can't use their Divine Kingdom would find their power lowered by half.

As I suspected, the information about the state of the Supreme Gods were not in any kind of slumber and were observing their Pantheons as actively as ever. So, things I have found about Lolth were false, as all gods who weren't Mighty Stage Gods and Pantheon Heads were told false information.

Additionally, from Khonglir's mind, I have found out that Feisuo Plane had an inheritance site of the Myriad God Emperor, who was born on the Plane countless eras ago. It was from where they found that Empyrean Grade Artifact.

The entire Inheritance Site was emptied a long time ago. However, there was still an enormous amount of Divine Crystals and various Divine Sparks and other things located there, which Supreme Gods decided to leave there for worse times.

Before anything, I needed to loot that Inheritance Site, as when the conquest started, Gods could create a large army from those resources.

 

[Trafford]

After getting everything from Khonglir's mind, I swung my scythe and severed his head. Without putting any resistance, he was killed in one hit. Afterward, I stored his corpse so it could be processed into pills and potions.

After disposing of Khonglir, who was one of the Supreme Gods of Feisuo Plane, I went to the place where the Wisdom Apple Tree was located, which was pretty close to me.

Khonglir's death will create a shockwave across the entire Feisuo Plane, as other Supreme Gods would for sure search for the culprit, and for that reason, my Executioners spread the news that Fiend at the Abyssal Sage level has sneaked up into the Feisuo Plane.

Additionally, after this ends, we will instantly open the Gates of Hell in the capitals of the Titan Empire, Morrince Empire, and Beastmen Empire. Elven Empire was to be left out, as some people in the Chthonian Empire proposed to integrate Elves.

Chthonian Empire had many elven citizens, but most of them were Dark Elves, not ordinary Elves that lived in the Feisuo Plane. However, we had a small community of the Silvermoon Elves living in the Empire. They were refugees from the Primary Grade 2 Plane called Noscent, where they ruled the entire plane until they were overthrown. Not only them came to the Baator, but also Three-Headed Golden Dragons.

I arrived at the place where Wisdom Apple Tree was and at first observed it for a bit. I was thinking about the most effective way how to transport the entire Wisdom Apple Tree from the Feisuo Plane and replant it in the Baator.

It would be an excellent gift for Vena. During past centuries she took a hobby of collecting rare plants and trees, so occasionally, when I went to wander Astral Boundary, I always brought back some rare plants and trees.

So now, my lovely wife had a beautiful garden, filled with countless precious plants and trees not only from the Astral Boundary but also from other Universes, that I bought her as gifts from Okhwang or other members of the Longinus Dreizhen Orden.

After some time, I took the Wisdom Apple and ate it in several goes.

Suddenly, I felt its effect. I got enlightenment, and all questions that I was not able to solve instantly, were now making sense. Even my comprehension of the Law of Space was increasing at a tremendous speed, reaching a staggering 74% from the previous 41%.

Not only that, I have felt that I have understood my Godhood more profoundly and could use it even to higher levels, and I felt that I could now even use the basic level of the Nuclear Magic Rule, which was something that I have worked upon for more than thousand years.

The most destructive magic ever created allowed one to manipulate atoms and detonate them. If combined with the Law of Destruction, one could reach an unprecedented level of destructive power, wiping out entire planets or high-grade planes with minimal effort.

Of course, the greatest benefit I have obtained was my breakthrough in Mysticism, as countless questions that I couldn't solve before were now all answered, and I could only say that I was stupid for not seeing them before.

The second greatest benefit was I had finally comprehended the Sixth Volume of the Fate Algorithm. With this, I could make even more precise predictions about Fate.

My masteries over the Laws of Devour and Darklight have automatically increased from Master to Perfect due to enlightenment from eating the Wisdom Apple.

Usually, comprehension abilities rose from Soul Aptitude; the higher the Soul Aptitude was, the higher comprehension talent for Laws and other things was. Of course, there existed some treasures that were able to increase comprehension abilities not dependent on the level of Soul Aptitude.

My Soul Aptitude was even before terrifyingly high, which resulted in tremendous comprehension abilities. Now combined with Wisdom Apple, my abilities got even more frightening. Right now, even spells that could take geniuses years to learn and master would be solved by me in a matter of hours.

After finishing the entire process, I sealed several tens of meters around the Wisdom Apple Tree and rooted out the whole space around the Wisdom Apple Tree, and stored it in my interdimensional store for better transportation.

After that, I left a space marker rune on the Golden Island and inserted a small ball-shaped arcanotech device in the ground for transportation of the Golden Island. Afterward, I left and went to search for my wives, who were doing their job, aside from Hela, who enjoyed her torture free time.

I have found Hela rather quickly, as she was playing with fiends. However, three of them were already being turned into body parts and gore. Only Abyssal Sage Fiend was still living, though hardly, and only because Hela let him, so she could torture him even more.

"Hela, darling, kill that Fiend already so we can go away."

I said as Hela puffed her cheeks at me, saying that she wanted to have more fun, but in the end, as an obedient wife, she listened to me and severed the head of the Abyssal Sage Fiend, killing him instantly.

"You know what I need right now..."

Said Hela to me as she hugged my arm.

She had a weird fetish of getting incredibly horny after commencing slaughter or torturing enemies; it always was an incredible turn-on for her.

[Trafford]

"Okey, after we return back, we won't be coming out of our bedroom for several days."

I said with a smirk as Hela kissed me on the cheek; as I looked at the body of the Abyssal Sage Fiend before realizing his lineage.

"Frost Demon Divine Lineage."

In the Infinite Abyss Universe, there was great importance on the demonic lineages, and Divine Lineages were top of the top, aside from Entities. Infinite Abyss Universe had several Divine Lineages because their founders were Divine Throne level Fiends.

Frost Demons were somewhat reclusive species among fiends. Still, they were extremely powerful, and even compared to other Divine Lineages, their members were very few, but as every Divine Lineage, they had countless subordinates under them, so if we open the Gates of Hell with the blood of this Frost Demon, we could lure at least ten to fifteen Abyssal Sage Fiends.

Though this Frost Demon was probably a rogue member of their species or an outcast... if not, he would have a larger entourage or at least all of his guards would be of Tier 11. The last thing I wished for was to bring here Abyssal Emperor Fiends; then, we could only pack our things and run away.

After I stored the corpses of the Fiends, we went to find Vena and Fia.

***

Several Days Later, Miracle City, Amaris Empire

After dealing with incredibly horny Hela, we went back to planning and today was the day when we had planned for the Gates of Hell to open.

The Amaris Kingdom has conquered large territories of the Desert Empire, Grand Rallan Kingdom, and Alliance of Nobles of the West. Its territory has expanded exponentially and has transformed into an Empire.

Instantly after that, it got attacked by Morrince Empire, Beastmen Empire, and Titan Empire in an effort to quell the fledgling Empire before it could take proper roots, and now almost the entire mortal realm was enveloped in enormous war.

Right now, the situation was becoming so bad that I got info that Gods were considering intervening in the hope of stopping this war. Unfortunately, from the moment of Khonglir's death at the Golden Island, all gods were searching for the culprit, and some of them were becoming paranoid, even to the level of suspecting other Supreme Stage Gods.

"So, is everything in place?"

I asked as Hela nodded because this was her responsibility.

"Yes, Executioners have prepared for Gates of Hell open at capitals of the Morrince Empire, Titan Empire, and Beastmen Empire; they are only waiting for your command, dear husband."

Replied Hela sweetly, not really befitting her cruel smile.

"You can start... of course, activate the limitators; we don't want Abyssal Emperor Fiends to enter the Feisuo Plane."

I said as I started brewing my tea.

***

Morrince Empire, St. Tulan City

St. Tulan City was the capital city of the Morrince Empire, so it was a very large and bustling city. Soon enough, the cheerful atmosphere city changed; as the sky turned crimson, an enormous structure appeared out of nowhere.

Flaming gate, leading straight to the Abyss.

Instantly, hundreds of thousands of fiends of various shapes, most of them were ugly as hell. The moment they existed in the Abyss, they instantly started slaughtering humans that were in St. Tulan City.

"Humans... Gods... you will all become my food!"

Roared several enormous tens of meters tall winged fiend, that existed in the Gates of Hell, excluding the aura of the Abyssal Sage Fiend, as behind him, several Abyssal King Fiends exited the Gates of Hell.

At the same time, as Abyssal Sage Fiend descended onto the Feisuo Plane, enormous divine pressure descended on the mortal realm.

"Vile fiend, begone from the Feisuo."

Said a deep voice belonging to an armored god holding a spear.

It was the Supreme God of the Zaliah Pantheon, God of War Erthol. I observed happening at the Morrince Empire, Hela went to the Titan Empire, and Vena went to the Beastmen Empire. Our tasks were to kill survivors of the clash between Supreme God and Abyssal Sage Fiend.

Abyssal Sage Fiend didn't say anything and just lunged at the God of War Erthol, while at the same time Divine Legions of Erthol descended down and started slaughtering fiends. While fiends were individually stronger and more numerous compared to the Divine Soldiers or Erthiol and other gods of the Zaliah Pantheon, soon enough, Divine Soldiers were getting the upper hand as every Divine Soldier killed by Fiends was instantly revived.

But Fiends also got reinforced because the Gates of Hell were still open, and with each passing second, thousands upon thousands of Fiends entered the Feisuo Plane.

I observed this carefully and also recorded it, as it was a rare instance of seeing how the Divine Kingdom of Supreme Stage God functioned in battle and how it reacted and worked when Divine Soldiers were killed and revived.

Every time Divine Solider was killed, a small amount of Divine Energy was used to replenish it.

The fight between Abyssal Sage Fiend and God of War Erthal was equal because while Erthal was using his Divine Kingdom, Abyssal Sage Fiend has evolved to the point of obtaining some special abilities that increased his combat prowess to a terrifying level, though from my point of view it was not much.

After one hour of fighting, it was clear that Gods got the upper hand and started pushing Fiends back to the Abyss, as their Divine Legions were good at cooperating with each other, and they managed to surround the Gate of Hell.

One Abyssal King Fiend was slain, but one of the Mighty Stage Gods of the Zaliah Pantheon was killed too; it was Prados who died, as his Divine Kingdom all of sudden crumbled as his Divine Legions perished.

Another Abyssal King Fiend appeared from his corpse, some kind of fiend related to shadows.

'Assassination... troublesome, these times of demons are hard to kill because they are almost impossible to find.'

I thought in my head.

[Trafford]

The loss of Prados was an excellent deal for the Zaliah Pantheon, as he was one of their Mighty Stage Gods. Usually, each Pantheon only had one Mighty Stage God, who was cultivated by the Supreme God.


God of War Erthal roared in anger, seeing that one of his Mighty Stage God subordinates was killed, as that was a significant loss for Erthal. Right now, Zaliah Pantheon was the strongest, which gave them an immense amount of freedom.


Erthal coated his spear, which was his Divine Artifact, and threw it at the Abyssal Sage Fiend.


Abyssal Sage Fiend tried to conjure a shield from Abyssal Energy. Unfortunately for the Abyssal Sage Fiend, it was futile, as Erthol's spear pierced directly through the heart of the Abyssal Sage Fiend.


Then something happened that really surprised me.


Abyssal Sage Fiend, who was now severely injured, instantly released an enormous blast of the Abyssal Magic, which devasted his entire surrounding and immediately rushed through the Gate of Hell.


He directly escaped... something that I didn't really think about.


While fiends were cunning and sometimes cowardly, they were vengeful as hell and greedy as well. This fiend was probably one of the smarter breeds, as he escaped when he realized that he couldn't win.


Usually, fiends would stay and fight to the death, even if it meant dying in the process.


After this Abyssal Sage Fiend escaped, his subordinates, or rather fiends that came with him, ended up getting slaughtered by Gods of the Zaliah Pantheon. Soon enough, Erthal used his remaining power to close his Gate of Hell.


'Time to act.'


I said to myself as I watched the Gate of Hell close.


Immediately, I turned to the God of War Erthol, and conjured an orb of the Nuclear Magic Rule, and shot a beam of it at the God of War Erthol. In a split of a second, a small gaping hole appeared in the Erthol's chest where his heart was supposed to be as I teleported to him and tore out his Divine Spark, and stored his corpse in my interdimensional storage for later processing.


After killing Erthol and teleporting away, madness spread among the gods of the Zaliah Pantheon. Their Supreme God was killed together with one of their Mighty Gods. While Zaliah Pantheon still had one Mighty God, this loss was too significant for them to handle; it was possible that other Pantheons would attack them.


Fortunately for them, and unfortunately for the entire Feisuo Plane, similar scenes appeared around the Feisuo as a whole Plane, be it at the Capital of the Titan Empire or Beastmen Empire, where their Supreme Gods were killed, and at those places, Abyssal Sage Fiends that were lured to the Feisuo Plane were killed by Hela, Vena, and Fia.


From the Chthonian Empire, everything was in motion. I have ordered some people to went to the places where Kindreds were gathering, and after some members of the Brunestud House killed the god Kindreds here worshipped, all of them pledged their allegiance to the Chthonian Empire. The same happened when Crom Cruach killed Supreme God, who the Dragon Country worshiped.


Meanwhile, Elves were rather cooperative in the negotiations, and there was a high possibility that they would agree, as obtaining a large elven population would be beneficial for the Chthonian Empire of the Baator.


***


One Month Later


After obtaining three Divine Sparks from the Supreme Gods, I have absorbed their Divine Energy and refined it to increase my Godhood Index to 99 Million, reaching the pinnacle of Common God.


Meanwhile, I was in the process of getting stronger, entire Feisuo Plane was in turmoil, as it was dealing with remnants of the Fiends that invaded the plane, alongside Titan Empire, Morrince Empire, and Beastmen Empire were facing large-scale rebellions everywhere, and our Amaris Empire was waging war against everyone.


Meanwhile, gods were also fighting against strong fiends that were hiding at the Feisuo Plane and preying on gods and mortals alike.


Among all of this chaos, Supreme God Malar of the Dark Gods Pantheon did something that I had really expected, and attacked Zaliah Pantheon and slaughtered the entire Pantheon, and used the whole capital of the Morrince Empire as a sacrifice to strengthen himself.


4 out of 10 Supreme Gods died, which was good. Now only two needed to be killed before I started the invasion, namely Irtarr and Gargarstave, to collapse the Weave. Killing Irtarr would ensure that no one too strong would attack our invading forces. At the same time, Gargarstave must die for the invasion to begin.


This invasion also served as a test for our forces combating high-level planes, as they would still encounter strong gods, including several Mighty Gods that were still perfectly fine.


I sent Hela together with Grayfia to check out the Inheritance Site of the Myriad God Emperor. They found a great amount of Divine Crystals, several tens of Divine Sparks of various Classes, and many weapons; all of them were Divine Artifacts belonging to Gods, some scriptures, and some various other things that needed to be identified.


I gave Vena Wisdom Apple Tree as a gift, so she was delighted, and she showed me her happiness and gratitude in the bedroom. She got one of the most precious things across the entire Astral Boundary as a gift, even leaves of the Wisdom Apple Tree were precious, and I have harvested several thousands of them to make tea out of them.


It would have nice enlightenment effects.

[Trafford]

Today I went to the Desert Empire, where the sole shrine dedicated to the God of Destruction Irtarr was located.


Dealing with Irtarr was probably the last thing that I needed to do before killing Goddes of Weave Gargarstave, thus collapsing the weave and starting the invasion.


When I arrived at the Desert Empire, everything was either destroyed or in absolute chaos, as armies of the Amaris Empire marched through the cities of the Desert Empire and mercilessly slaughtered everyone who didn't surrender, painting earth in the blood.


I went away, as observing all of this was useless to me, though all of that slaughter was beneficial for me; as someone who comprehended the Law of Slaughter, the more slaughter there was, the stronger I could get from it.


Shrine of the God of Destruction Irtarr was located on the outskirts of the Desert Empire, near the sea, where an enormous mountain was where the shrine was built for the Irtarr.


Contrary to what was usual, as temples, churches, and shrines dedicated to the Supreme Gods were usually majestic and enormous, this one devoted to Irtarr was humble and small. I just chuckled at that, fired an orb of the Nuclear Magic Rule, and blasted the entire shrine to nothingness.


At the same time, I activated Decomposition Magic Rule and created a special Anti-Divine Domain with a diameter of several kilometers while hiding it behind a concealment spell made from Laws directly.


Soon enough, God of Destruction Irtarr descended, completely enraged that someone had destroyed his shrine. I did this to lure him out of his Divine Kingdom, and it paid off; Gods were insanely arrogant, so destroying his temple was probably the worst thing I could do to offend him.


Of course, God as strong as Irtarr would be consumed by rage and instantly descended down without investigating the situation for a moment, and he entered the trap without a second thought.


Irtarr looked like a middle-aged man, with shoulder-length pitch-black hair clad in luxurious robes coupled with some armor.


Irtarr looked around for a bit before looking at me with an intense gaze.


"Foreign invader... so all of what is happening at the Feisuo Plane is your work."


He said quietly.


I just chuckled hearing that, thinking that he was the smart one among the gods, he was able to quickly deduce, even after being enraged, that this wasn't a coincidence, but he soon realized that this was a trap for him.


"You are surprisingly calm about this, Irtarr."


I stated as I activated the Anti-Divine Domain created through the Decomposition Magic Rule.


"Your power is overwhelming compared to mine, especially now in this situation, so in the end, I will just discard this avatar."


He said as I sharpened.


"So... to whom does the real body belong? One of the Myriad God Emperors of the Divine Star Region?"


I asked as Irtarr's face changed into a frown.


So that was his plan, or rather their plan.


Divine Star Region always tried to expand into the other three major Star Regions and other minor Star Regions to gain more followers and worshippers that would be feeding them with more divine power.


Unfortunately for Pantheons of the Divine Star Region, Central Star Region was impossible for them, as it was a no-go zone because of the presence of Warlocks and Arcanists. The same could be said about the Ancient Eternal Region, as it was filled with countless Emperor-ranked and several Eternal-ranked factions.


So only major Star Region which remained was Desolate Star Region for them to try to spread their influence. Minor Star Regions were out of the question, as every minor Star Region had someone of terrifying level of strength protecting it; usually, it were either some Warlocks or Arcanists that left their civilization cradle and became rogues, or extraordinary lifeforms or species.


Additionally, the minor Star Regions were very small and not worth of effort compared to the major ones.


They have chosen the Desolate Star Region, probably for the same reasons why I have chosen to settle Baator here. It lacked any strong presence, and while it had a few Tier 11 powerhouses, none were especially strong.


Irtarr didn't say anything aside from grimacing before he attempted to self-detonate his Divine Spark, only for an ashen expression to appear when he noticed that he couldn't.


"The moment you have entered this Anti-Divine Domain, you were under the effect of Decomposition Magic Rule, which nullifies functions of the Divine Spark... it is too precious for me, you know?"


I explained as several Dark Light Chains pierced through his body as it completely immobilized Irtarr.


"It is unfortunate that your memories are protected well..."


I sighed.


"Don't worry devil... sooner or enough, we will meet in person, and then I will kill you and your entire filthy race."


Said Irtarr with malice as he looked straight at me.


"You gods and your arrogance... truly wondrous how stupid you can be..."


I said as I swung with my scythe and severed his head.

[Trafford]

After killing Irtarr and ignoring his blunt threat, not that I feared his true body, even though Myriad God Emperors were terrifyingly powerful in combat prowess, they were even stronger than average Warlock Emperors or Arcane Lords due to their Divine Kingdoms; they were still confined to their planes where they have ascended as Gods.

Though gods could leave their planes, the longer they were gone and far they went, the weaker they would become.

So, I was basically safe unless I had gone to the plane where this Myriad God Emperor was. I was too strong for him to send some goons to do anything for me, so it was okey... though I was tempted, in the future, I will certainly go to the Divine Star Region to hunt some Myriad God Emperors... their bodies are peerless treasure troves, that would make me stronger several times if I could get my hands even only on one corpse.

"Maybe I will let them deal with Gargarstave; in the end, we have already developed means to deal with gods and people like her, so this could be a good test... even though Supreme God may be too much, but no risk, no gains."

I said to myself as I activated my Holo-Brain and connected to Admiral Orlcok, who was leading the 1st Fleet.

"Ancestor."

Bowed Admiral Orlock as he picked up the call request.

"Use that thing to crack up the Weave and kill Gargarstave. If it doesn't work, I will do it personally, afterward start an invasion."

I ordered as he bowed, and I ended the call and instantly called another person.

This time, it showed a handsome young man with blond hair wearing glasses.

"Father-in-law."

It was Arthur Pendragon, Commander of the Sardaukar Forces, peak Apocalypse-Class powerhouse, and the sole person who attained the Law of Sword state, which was an incredibly rare state for weapon masters.

"Arthur, mobilize your soldiers; soon enough, you will get a signal for invasion of the Feisuo Plane. You will be covered by me and work together with Admiral Orlock in this conquest and will have a lot of gods to deal with. I will be deploying aside from Sardaukar, Burning Legion too."

For invasions of god-controlled planes, Burning Legion was always deployed. Mainly because Burning Legion was often tasked with extermination-related tasks and had extremely great collateral damages. None of this mattered on planes controlled by gods because their inhabitants were zealots that would never surrender.

"Of course, everything will be prepared. Artorias will lead the vanguard."

Stated Arthur as I nodded.

Artorias, full name Artorias Pendragon-Lucifer was my grandson from Sigurn and her husband, Arthur. He was a pinnacle Satan-Class powerhouse and was swordmaster like his father, one of the most talented that the Empire had ever seen.

As Devil Dragonoid, his physique was terrifying, and on top of that, he has inherited Devour and Darklight from me and Power of Death of Hela. He should have enough power to kill even some weaker Great Divinity Stage Gods.

***

3rd POV

Meanwhile, outside of the Feisuo Plane, an enormous fleet of thousands of voidships was waiting.

On the biggest ship, which was 50km wide, 15km long, and 20km high.

At the command center of the Adjudicator-Class Juggernaut Capital Ship, Admiral Orlock now finished the call with Ancestor of the Chthonian Empire of the Baator.

"Bring down the Anti-Magic Bombs, target the pillars of the weave."

He barked orders as people started running here and there, locating the Weave Pillars. Each Anti-Magic Network, like Weaves, had its Pillars that supported the existence of the entire network. If the pillars were to be destroyed, the entire network would collapse and severely injure God that was connected to it.

God would die for sure.

This was the price for the great power, as a connection to the Anti-Magic Network gave them enormous power; usually, their life was tied to its existence, so by collapsing the network, one would kill God.

After several minutes, the bombs were dropped in several locations on the Feisuo Plane, and before the gods of the Feisuo could react, they exploded as an enormous tremor ran through the entire plane as the Weave started collapsing.

"NOOOOOO!"

Sounded a female shriek from the Feisuo Plane as it soon died down.

"Fire at will!"

Commanded Admiral Orlock, as thousands of the Voidships started firing at Gods that crawled out of the Feisuo Plane to support a protective divine wall around the Feisuo Plane.

Unfortunately for gods, they were all blasted away, one after another, mainly because their strongest ones didn't appear. Either they were already dead or stayed hidden inside their Divine Kingdom, as they realized that this was an all futile effort without several Supreme Gods to protect it directly.

After the last God who was foolish to come here died, the entire area became deadly silent.

"Advance further and prepare for descent."

Afterward, an enormous fleet of the Voidships belonging to the Chthonian Empire went and entered the Feisuo Plane without any resistance.

***

At the Miracle City at the center of the Amaris Empire, Astral Gate opened, as tens of thousands of white armored knights existed the Astral Gate in a neat formation, under the leadership of their commander Arthur Pendragon.

"Sardaukar!"

Shouted Arthur as all Sardaukar stopped with their hand on their swords. Each Sardaukar had the strength of the pinnacle Grand-Class, clad in top runic armor with Personal Shield Generator; their weapons and armors were of top quality. Altogether, they could easily fight Ultimate-Class powerhouses.

In Feisuo Plane, their combat prowess was comparable to the Lesser Divinity God of Feeble Stage. Of course, this was under the condition that Gods wouldn't use their Divine Kingdom, though Sardaukar had something in their sleeves... combat formations.

"March to the West, kill any god, apostle, or anything that is a threat."

Said Arthur as every Sardaukar knight shouted together.

"We are the Emperor's Blades! Those who stand against us fall!"

"We are the Emperor's Blades! Those who stand against us fall!"

"We are the Emperor's Blades! Those who stand against us fall!"

[Trafford]

Feisuo Plane as a Grade 2 Plane had 100,000 God Slots, from which around 65% were used, that was approximately 65,000 existing currently in the Feisuo Plane.

Now several hundreds of Gods were killed by my fleet when they entered the Feisuo Plane, which amounted to probably 2,500 to 3,000 Gods. Together with those who died through my machinations, around 62,000 Gods remained in the Feisuo Plane.

The majority of these Gods were Lesser Gods, probably more than 50% of them; the rest was divided between Intermediate Gods and several hundred Greater Gods. These minor gods were of no problem; they were not even strong and were worshipped only by a few thousand people.

This should be no problem for Sardaukar Forces and Burning Legion. Both of them had strong officers reaching up to Apocalypse-Class while the remaining Supreme Gods would be handled by either my wives or me. If not, there is Adjudicator-Class Juggernaut Capital Ship which could easily injure Supreme God.

As Sardaukar started marching at the Holy Sites of the Zaliah Pantheon, where most of the gods of that Pantheon remained, gods of the Feisuo Plane started panicking as hell because now they were invaded. Contrary to the previous invasion, this time, it was different.

In the Elven Empire, civil war broke out between God's Faction and Freedom Faction. One was compromised from gods' followers, mainly the Emperor, Clergy, and some noble houses related to them and their forces. While the Freedom Faction was compromised by nobles and people, who wanted to be free from the influence of gods and join the Chthonian Empire to achieve the path of power.

All of this was instigated by the Chthonian Empire after Vena and Fia went to dispose of their gods, as right now, they were engaged in a fierce duel with the Father of Nature, who was the Supreme God of the Elven Pantheon.

Unfortunately for Venelana and Grayfia, the Father of Nature managed to activate his Divine Kingdom, so Vena and Fia needed to gang up on the Father of Nature. Still, slowly they wore him down, and he was killed without a second thought.

Soon enough, Sardaukar Forces under Arthur's leadership entered the Morrince Empire as they slaughtered their way through the endless stream of zealot worshippers that attacked them. Still, in the end, it was futile, as mortals of these planes could never match even the weakest Sardaukar Soldier.

Soon enough, Sardaukar Forces were stopped by several hundreds of Gods of the Zaliah Pantheon, under the leadership of God of Sun Dragoni, who took a large part of the remaining Gods to stop the advance of the Zaliah Pantheon. As expected, other Pantheons left them to deal with it on their own, though Titan Pantheon was right now dealing with something more destructive than Sardaukar; Burning Legion was wreaking havoc in there.

Arthur lifted his right hand to stop the march as Sardaukar stopped and readied their swords in a combat-ready position. At the same time, Arthur unsheathed his sword, Excalibur.

Dragoni was God of the Sun and Mighty Stage God. His divinity was suitable to be used against devils, but not this time, due to the special nature of the Runic Armors of the Sardaukar Forces. It also contained Light and Holy Resistance Runes.

These Runes were perfected to and soon reached the level of Primordial Runes, and each Runic Armor was inscribed with Light Elemental Resistance Primordial Rune and Holy Elemental Resistance Primordial Rune, which allowed Sardakaur to have a high degree of resistance against these elements.

Arthur didn't say anything; he just adjusted his glasses and tapped on his PSG to activate it, and sent a slash at the Dragonis, which he blocked by activating his Divine Kingdom.

As Arthur and Dragoni started their fight, Sardaukar activated their battle formation, which increased their individual strength to at least Ultimate-Class as they started slaughtering Divine Legions of the Gods that Gods unleashed on them.

After several minutes, the first Lesser Gods were already killed by the Sardaukar Forces, active in perfect synchronization achieved through thousands of years of training and constant battles.

Meanwhile, Arthur started getting the upper hand in his fight against Dragoni, as he managed to sever the connection between Dragoni and his Divine Kingdom.

Excalibur was Holy Grade Artifact, and while Arthur was still Apocalypse-Class, he could still unleash the sword's full power as he slashed at Dragoni, severing his right hand in which he held his Divine Weapon Scepter of Sun.

Instantly after severing Dragoni's right hand, Arthur coated Excalibur in all of his power and pierced through Dragoni's heart, killing him immediately.

After Arthur has disposed of Dragoni, he starts slaughtering Great Divinity Stage Gods like cabbage, as none of them could stand even on a hit from Arthur's sword.

After one hour of fight, Sardaukars slaughtered all Gods that attacked them. They effectively won the battle while suffering the loss of only several tens of their members.

Meanwhile, a beautiful show was unfolding in the sky, from collapsing Divine Kingdoms of killed Gods.

"Clear the battlefield, kill survivors, and then we march."

Commanded Arthur as Sardaukar started clearing the battlefield, taking all corpses of Gods, Divine Sparks, and Divine Weapons as these things were of great value.

Contrary to how Sardaukar fought, Burning Legion was leaving behind only carnage and destruction.

While Sardaukar marched and killed only offenders and enemies, Fire Demons under the leadership of Surtr slaughtered everything that lived and destroyed everything in their path as they marched on the capital of the Titan Empire and its holy places.

Behind them, they left the scorched ground, destroyed cities, towns, and villages, littered with corpses of everyone whom they didn't burn or eat. Fire Demons of the Burning Legion were beyond the definition of the word "savage"; that was why Empire sent them only when they wanted to destroy something absolutely.

Surtr was a powerful Apocalypse-Class Fire Demon who comprehended the Law of Fire and Law of Slaughter, and Law of Explosion, which made Surtr a powerful foe with very high destructive powers, especially the more he killed.

Soon enough, Burning Legion arrived at the capital city of the Titan Empire, where they destroyed everything in their path, slaughtered millions, and burned the entire city to the ground, though only after the destruction of the city did several Gods of the Titan Pantheon appear.

After their Supreme God was killed and many of their gods were killed in the process, they were in a similar situation to other Pantheons. They reacted very slowly to the blitzkrieg of the Chthonian Empire.

Surtr waved his flaming sword, which incarnated several tens of Gods that were rushing at him in a split of a second. As an Apocalypse-Class powerhouse who comprehended the Law of Fire and fused with several powerful and mighty flames, his ability to turn enemies into ash was unparalleled.

After disposing of incoming Gods, he took the corpse of the Great God, whose corpse was in a relatively good state, and started munching on it.

"This one tastes good..."

He muttered as his Fire Demons started devouring corpses of scorched Gods, as they grew stronger from this. Another reason why the Empire sent them only for a total extermination mission as nothing would remain after a march of the Fire Demons from the Burning Legion.

Not only did they destroy everything, but they also ate everything that could be eaten... and sometimes even things that cannot be eaten.

"Kill them all, you lazy bastards!"

Shouted Surtr as he killed another Greater God with a slash of his flaming sword. Titan Empire was done for as its capital was turned into a sea of flames, and Gods of the Titan Pantheon were falling one after another, as ferocious Fire Demons were perfect in dealing with Divine Legions of Gods.

Fire Demons basically just ate their way through the Divine Legions of Gods and then overwhelmed God and killed him with their numbers. They were really a tumor to deal with.

Above the Great Azure Ocean, abroad of Adjudicator-Class Juggernaut Capital Ship, at the command center.

"Lord Admiral, we have arrived at the place; we are awaiting the next orders."

Stated the adjutant of Lord Admiral Orlock as she saluted.

"Start bombarding the holy sites and their military outposts before sending a signal to the Empire so our sea citizens could invade."

Chthonian Empire had many sea citizens living in vast oceans and seas in the Baator.

"Yes, Lord Admiral."

Saluted adjutant, as several tens of Voidships, readied their weapons and started firing at several places across oceans. Not only this group of voidships but also other groups of voidships began doing the same, as they were at different locations across the entire Feisuo Plane.

After a few waves of shots, enormous explosions sounded from the ocean's depths across the Feisuo Plane as countless military bases, holy sites, and several strategically located cities were destroyed.

After some Sea Pantheon Gods came and tried to attack the fleets of the Chthonian Empire, they were shredded to pieces until nothing remained from them.

This continued until the Supreme God of the Sea Gods Pantheon Tritos appeared.

"Activate the shields to the maximum of their capacity and activate Dark Matter shield and all Primordial Defensive Runes."

Ordered Lord Admiral Orlcoks instantly after he saw Supreme God appear.

"Also, all other voidships aside from Adjudicator-Class Juggernaut Capital Ship are to retreat to a safe distance."

Other Voidships aside from the Adjudicator-Class Juggernaut Capital Ship were utterly useless in the face of Supreme Stage God, such as Tritos, who could obliterate them with his attacks.

Supreme God Tritos appeared like an enormous avatar made of water holding a trident made out of water.

Suddenly, before anything could happen, the main cannons of Adjudicator-Class Juggernaut Capital Ship fired at the water avatar of the Tritos as he stumbled backward. The attacks from the Adjudicator-Class Juggernaut Capital Ship didn't stop here, as it started firing at the water avatar of Supreme God Tritos.

This wasn't a true body of Tritos, but only his avatar, though this avatar held more than 90% of the power of the true body.

Soon enough, several water tornadoes formed around the Adjudicator-Class Juggernaut Capital Ship and attacked the capital ship of the Chthonian Empire, only to be blocked by the defensive shield of the voidship.

Soon enough, all other voidships, especially the Emperor-Class Battleships and Destroyer-Class Battle Cruisers, started firing at the avatar of the Supreme God Tritos.

Emperor-Class Battleship had combat prowess comparable to the higher end of the Apocalypse-Class, meaning these ships could actually injure even Supreme Gods, while Destroyer-Class Battle Cruisers had combat prowess on the level of the lower end of the Apocalpyse-Class, which was comparable to strong Mighty Stage God.

After the main canons of the Adjudicator-Class Juggernaut Capital Ship fired lastly, it blasted away the head of the avatar, as the water avatar of Tritos couldn't handle all of that attacks and dispersed.

Unfortunately for Tritos, by the destruction of his avatar, he suffered a great backslash as he was in a greatly weakened state.

"Adjust the course to the Divine Kingdom of Tritos; we are going to finish him by shelling his Divine Kingdom."

Commanded Lord Admiral Orlock.

After the Voidfleet destroyed the avatar of the Supreme God Tritos under the command of Lord Admiral Orlock, he suffered a great backslash, and right now, Tritos was weakened to a great degree.

Soon enough, they arrived at where Tritos's Divine Kingdom was located before the entire Voidfleet surrounded his Divine Kingdom.

"Fire at will... continue; nothing remains."

While the Divine Kingdom of a Supreme God was sturdy and stood strong, it couldn't handle the combined firepower of several hundred Voidships and soon started crumbling away.

After several rounds, the entire Divine Kingdom has crumbled away, together with its owner Supreme God Tritos.

"Collect what has remained, and we are flying to the next target."

Commanded Lord Admiral Orlock.

MC POV

The conquest of the Feisuo Plane was going very well.

Due to the chaos that was spread before the invasion began, and my wives and I killed many Supreme Gods, our conquest was smooth. Of course, due to the fact that we have created conflicts between Pantheons to the point that they have killed each other, right now, even surviving Gods were reluctant to help each other.

Zaliah Pantheon, Titan Pantheon, Dark Gods Pantheon, and Beastman Pantheon could already be considered as destroyed, as their Supreme Gods were killed and their Mighty Gods were dead too; the rest was of no threat.

Dragon Pantheon was subjugated after its Supreme God was killed by Crom Cruach; the remaining dragons surrendered, while Sea God Pantheon was right now besieged by our Voidfleets. Elven Pantheon Gods were either killed or captured, as the entire Elven Empire was in a civil war instigated by the Chthonian Empire under the leadership of several Silvermoon Elves.

Neutral Gods were either killed or useless after their leaders were killed. In truth, while Neutrals had most Gods, they were bound together only because of the silent agreement of Irtarr, Khonglir, and Gargastave. Still, now all three had died, most Neutral Gods either chose to surrender, flee to another plane or hide.

Soon enough, the entire Feisuo Plane would be under our control. We could start mining all resources and other precious things before using this plane as a means for Baator to evolve even further.

Of course, before that, it was important to take all resources and all things with any value out of the plane, or else they would be destroyed together with it, which would be a great shame, considering the fact that the Feisuo Plane was Grade 2 Plane with an immense amount of resources for us to take.

Just the mining of resources would take several years, even with advanced Arcanotech and a crazy amount of various mechs for this purpose.

That was not all; there were many precious types of plants, trees, extraordinary lifeforms, and many others that needed to be carefully transported back to the Baator and found a suitable environment.

In regard to natives, some were recruited, and some were killed. Humans and those who didn't surrender would be either killed or enslaved. Standart protocol in the Empire for slaves was to sell them either to Arcanists or to the Divine Blood Plane.

Of course, some were reserved for the Chthonian Empire, as we also needed countless living subjects for experiments. Usually, they would be distributed among Magisteriums and their departments, and some would be sold to independent researchers and magicians of the Empire.

Those who were not fit to be experimental subjects were outright killed, and their corpses were used as fertilizers for Flower-type Monsters that Dou Dou produced through the millennia. Now, the entire area of the Imperial Capital was protected by not only my familiar Dou Dou, who was a peak Apocalypse-Class Monster, but also countless other weaker monsters of her species.

Such was day to day cruelty of the Astral Boundary, where the strong preyed on the weak, and the word genocide was basically meaningless, as entire planes were slaughtered for either resources or, in the case of some species like Fiends and Hellions, just for fun and sake of the slaughter.

"How are things going on your end Vena?"

I asked as I sensed my wife's return.

"Territories of the Amaris Empire, Morrince Empire, and Desert Empire are already prepared to be industrialized, and we can start siphoning resources from those places. Titan Empire is still being cleared by the Burning Legion; additionally, we would need some time to clear the mess they leave behind. Elven Empire is more problematic, as the environment there needs to be taken care of with a careful approach. The western area of the continent is of no problem due to lack of strong Gods, and in truth, that area is rather poor compared to other areas of the Feisuo based on our analysis."

Explained Vena to me as I nodded in understanding.

It was expected that the western area would be poor in resources; if not, it would have been conquered long ago by large mortal empires backed by major Patheons.

Vena, who was in charge of IMC, was also in charge of trading with our allies or business patterns that wished to trade with the Chthonian Empire, as we traded only through the IMC, which was basically a state company, even though it was controlled privately by Imperial House.

Interdimensional Manufacturing Corporation was especially effective in obtaining resources from conquered territories as it was in trading and business. While IMC's primary trade area was the mining of resources and manufacturing of Arcanotech gadgets, it also had many other sources of income.

1 Month Later, Feisuo Plane

After one month, basically, every opposition in the Feisuo Plane was quelled, and right now, we have controlled the entire Feisuo Plane. All hostiles were dealt with, and mortals were of no threat to the might of the Chthonian Empire of the Baator.

I sent Taboo Bead, Taboo Text a Chaos Imperishable Bead back to the Empire so Ajuka and other brains of the Empire to study them so they could create an alternative path for Devils to advance without comprehending the Laws; I strictly believed that these things obtained from the inheritance of the Taboo Lord held the key to it.

If successful, it would increase the power of our Empire exponentially, as many people who couldn't comprehend Laws and advance would now obtain that opportunity and advance to a higher level of power.

Civil War in the Elven Empire ended in the extermination of all Elven Gods, and all Elves were transported to the Baator to a suitable Layer of the Baator, where other species of Elves lived, mainly Silvermoon Elves.

8th Layer of the Baator, Cania had a suitable environment for Elves, as it had a beautiful environment, and its capital, Insomnia, was a place where all Silvermoon Elves lived.

It took an open month to finish the preparations for all mining works completely. Things that went quickest was the transportation of various trees and plants to the Baator; right now, approximately 40% of it was finished just within one month.

All that was needed were several Tier 8 Silvermoon Elves with Nature Manipulation abilities, which speeded up the process significantly.

Mining works were much slower, even though several Tier 8 dwarves and even one Tier 9 dwarf were participating in this, together with hundreds of millions of mining drones. Dwarves were one of the Major Species of the Chthonian Empire of the Baator.

Grandmaster Durin who was the strongest Dwarf in the Chthonian Empire, reaching the pinnacle Apocalypse-Class, told me that Feisuo Plane had extensive loges of the ores and precious metals, and it would take approximately at least 5 years to completely mine all resources on the Feisuo Plane.

Currently, I was spending my time leisurely as I decided to spend here all time until it was time to mine the Planar Core and use it to evolve Baator.

Right now, I was laying on my bed together with Hela in my embrace as we enjoyed after-sex relaxation time.

As I was in a half-sleep state enjoying the warmth of my beloved wife, I suddenly felt someone enter the perimeter of the Feisuo Plane, someone very, very strong... probably on my level or someone slightly stronger than me... this was interesting.

"Hela, I need to go right now."

I said as I clothed myself in my combat outfit and teleported away. At the same time, Hela was startled that I had disappeared; she soon realized that something serious must happen.

***

Outside of the Feisuo Plane

I saw an incoming silhouette coming at the Feisuo Plane with tremendous speed.

'Warlock... Half-Step Warlock Emperor Realm... judging by fluctuations of his power, he seems to be very close to reaching Warlock Emperor, though there is something different about this one.'

I thought in my head as I observed the incoming silhouette, which appeared to be a male, old one; he wore typical clothing that Warlocks wore, though this fashion didn't really suit any of the Warlock Dynasties.

So either he was a rogue warlock, or he was from a time before Eight Imperial Warlocks Courts rose up, meaning he was a really ancient warlock.

He had a weird symbol between his brows, radiating a faint Divine Energy.

'So this is it... Divine Slave.'

Divine Slaves were slaves enslaved through a special method only usable through an extensive and special method of divine enslavement. Usually, powerful Gods, if possible, enslaved strong Warlocks, Arcanists, or anyone other whom they managed to capture alive.

'It should be a Divine Slave belonging to Irtarr's main body... Divine Slave of Myriad God Emperor. So either way, Irtarr is overwhelmingly arrogant as any other Myriad God Emperor would be, or he is confident enough that his Divine Slave will kill me.'

I thought in my head as I instantly switched to maximum readiness as I was cautious about the incoming foe.

Soon enough, the Quasi-Emperor Warlock appeared and scanned the entire Feisuo Plane with his senses before he turned to a location where I was hiding and performed some secret technique, which released an enormous wave of energy that rushed directly at me.

At the same time, Quasi-Emperor Warlock punched at me, sending another attack my way.

I waved my Mystic Code Rosenkreutz, and with a slash, I broke the incoming energy wave. At the same time, a second after, I teleported behind the Quasi-Emperor Warlock and sent a wave of Nuclear Magic Rule beams directly at him.

He didn't say anything probably, he was just a mindless puppet, and the only thing that remained in him was his combat experiences and reflexes.

He took out some kind of artifact that was Shield and blocked the Nuclear Magic Rule beams with relative ease, though only the first wave of the Nuclear Magic Beams, while he blocked the second wave of the Nuclear Magic Rule beams, the Shield artifact started showing cracks all around it.

After blocking the last wave, Quasi-Emperor Warlock threw the Shield artifact directly at me as he subsequently unleashed a secret technique, as a red aura enveloped his entire body and rushed at me.

I used my control over the Law of Lightning to create Lightning Clouds, which started striking at the Quasi-Emperor Warlock furiously, with each Lightning Strike having power comparable to an average Dimensional-Class powerhouse.

Instantly Dark Light Chains caught the Shield artifact that was flying at me and returned it to the Quasi-Emperor Warlock, as the Shield artifact smashed at his body, sending the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave flying back several tens of kilometers.

[Trafford]

Even though I knew that this attack had injured him, I sensed that it was not enough. Irtarr's Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave was very strong; he is probably the strongest opponent I have ever fought.

And this was apparently not enough to kill him, and I had a hunch that this was not his peak; if not, Irtarr's True Body wouldn't be sent him here to kill me.

'I should probably go all out...'

I thought in my head that I would be really going all in single combat for the first time in my life.

Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave took out another Divine Artifact, which was a sword, and just by looking at it, I felt an instinctive danger as he rushed at me and activated a secret method, which increased his power several-fold.

'He is burning up his lifeforce, and even he has supplements from Divine Kingdom of Iratarr, who is Myriad God Emperor... right now combat prowess of this Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave isn't losing to even a bit weaker Warlock Emperor. This is... so exhilarating.'

I grinned at this sight as I released all that I had.

For the first time in my life, I went to fight for my survival.

I instantly activated the main ability of my Godhood, which I termed God and Devil Domain. I created it from the ability I got from obtaining complete control over Baator with Godhood.

Using a combination of Essence of Baator and Godhood: Father of All Devils, a 25-kilometer area into your own exclusive territory. My ability will be five times as powerful within the area, and I can suppress the opponent's ability up to a certain level. Within this territory, Demonic Energy Regeneration is boosted tenfold. Resistance against Energy-Based attacks is lowered by half no matter the level.

Not even a second later, I activated my True Name, Zerius - Prime Evil which allowed me to store negative energy created from sinning; basically, everyone who did anything related to Seven Deadly Sins would have created something I called Energy of Sin, which I automatically absorbed, and I could burn this energy reserved in exchange to obtain an explosive increase in power.

More than two thousand years' worth of sins of all living beings of Baator was now used to increase my power, together coupled with the effects of the God and Devil Domain; right now, I felt that I could beat even average Tier 11 beings if I played my cards right, as the disparity between Tier 10 and Tier 11 was enormous, no matter what Power System one was following.

After entering the God and Devil Domain, Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave was weakened significantly.

He roared in anger as he burned his lifeforce even faster to obtain greater explosive combat prowess. He slashed at me with his sword artifact, and I barely managed to dodge his strike.

Even though he was greatly weakened and I was greatly strengthened, he was still very strong, burning his lifeforce, and he was also getting boosted by the consumption of Divine Power from the Divine Kingdom of Irtarr. The Divine Kingdom of Myriad God Emperor was really terrifying.

For the next ten minutes, we have spent by playing mouse and cat, as Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave tried to hit me, and I always dodged his attacks.

I chose a strategy of playing for time. I knew that Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave had limited time to fight in this state, as sooner or later, his lifeforce would be burned to the point where he would be getting weaker and weaker.

My only mistake was a slight miscalculation when he stopped in his attacks and started gathering his aura.

'Shit... that method has a second level.'

I cursed in my mind as I observed Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave's power rising up at an unprecedented speed. However, at this rate, he would probably only withstand 5 minutes before he died from burning up all of his lifeforce.

Still, 5 minutes was enough to kill me several times.

Even if I couldn't kill Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave, I needed to stall him for 5 minutes, even at the price of my very life, as I could still be resurrected through the usage of my true name Isaiah - Nirvana.

If I couldn't achieve that, entire forces in the Feisuo Plane would be destroyed, and most importantly, there was a huge chance that my wives would probably be killed if they didn't evacuate already.

I instantly teleported away at the perimeter of the God and Devil Domain, while at the same time, I conjured several Decomposition Magic Rule beams as they started shooting beams of energy at the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave and slowly weakened.

Decomposition Magic Rule was the strongest weapon when fighting against anything energy-based. Basically, it could disrupt the flow of any kind of magic, spells, or secret methods that were energy-based like the one used by Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave.

Fortunately for me, usage of the Decomposition Magic Rule managed to decrease the overall power of the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave by approximately 15%, which was good enough by itself.

My enemy slashed his sword once more, though this time, the entire sword was enveloped by flames, as my instincts screamed at me to run away from that weapon.

'God-Slayer Weapon.'

That weapon was imbued with God-Slaying Attribute, which was pretty rare these days.

I conjured several tens of Dark Light Chains through my Law of Darklight as they shot directly at the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave, unfortunately for me, the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave was too fast for them, and he dodged all of them pretty easily, as I teleported from my current location to another end of the God and Devil Domain, as I started bombarding him with Dark Light Weaponry furiously, as millions of Dark Light Weapons were being shot at the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave each second.

At the same time, I imbued each of the Dark Light Weapons with Lightning with the usage of the Light of Lightning and Destruction from using Law of Destruction, for them have even more destructive power.

[Trafford]

Dark Light Weaponry imbued with the Law of Lightning and Law of Destruction proved to be powerful enough to injure Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave slightly. Even though individually, those injuries were negligible.

But together, and in such an enormous number, they were able to injure Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave in several places of his body, and some of those injuries were proved to be pretty severe.

He took all of the incoming Dark Light Weapons with his body head-on while sustaining injuries and appeared directly before me, slashing at me with his flaming divine sword.

In a split of a second, I used my two tails to entangle his right hand, which was holding the flaming divine sword, which completely immobilized his right hand, as I slashed with my scythe at the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave, hitting him with my scythe Rosenkreutz at his chest.

The Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave immediately used his free hand that struck at the Rosenkreutz Mystic Codee that was still stuck in his chest, broking apart my Mystic Code in countless pieces.

Then not even a moment later, after he broke down my Mystic Code Rosenkreutz, he kicked me in my stomach with full force, and I coughed a huge amount of blood; unfortunately for me, after the first kick, he kicked me once more this tome to my chest, as he sent my flying a several kilometers away.

'Fuck... while I was able to withstand those attacks, I am now greatly injured from those attacks.'

I thought in my head.

After I opened my eyes, the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave was already before me as he pierced his divine artifact sword through my stomach, as I coughed blood. I used both of my hands as I grabbed the sword and sued, sealing magic to immobilize the divine sword as Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave couldn't take it out from my stomach.

Instantly I used my two tails as they pierced through his head, effectively killing the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave.

My tails were as hard as Holy Grade Artifact, and the tips of my tails were even harder than Quasi-Emperor Artifacts, and the same could be said about my horns.

After killing the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave, I took out a vial of top-tier Phenex Tiers; this one was bigger than any other standardized vial and was also of the highest quality possible, exclusively made only for crucial people of the Chthonian Empire.

I gulped it down in one go after taking out the divine sword and storing it in my interdimensional storage. At the same time, I cast several Starlight-Tier Healing Spells and used my Godhood to absorb the remaining foreign divine power in my body.

Unfortunately, to completely recuperate from these injuries, I would need at least several weeks; right now, only the worst injuries are in the process of healing.

Before I could approach the corpse of the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave, it started glowing slightly; I instantly teleported as far as possible, only to see that the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave's corpse exploded and was destroyed.

"As expected... Iratarr's true body wouldn't leave me such a precious gift as the corpse of the Quasi-Emperor Warlock."

I muttered.

I deactivated True Name Zerius - Prime Evil ability and also the God and Devil Domain.

This fight was hard as hell... I almost died.

It was the first time I felt so close to death; this Quasi-Emperor Warlock must have been someone really powerful during a time when he wasn't a Divine Slave of Myriad God Emperor. When he burned his life force and had support from the Divine Kingdom of Myriad God Emperor, he had combat prowess the same as me, if not higher, under a state of God and Devil Domain and Prime Evil ability.

"Fucking gods... sooner or later, I will devour all of you till the last one."

I said with a bit of hatred in my voice.

I knew that Irtarr's true body wouldn't be sending anyone soon after me, as he probably didn't have a lot of Divine Slaves on the level of this Quasi-Emperor Warlock, additionally while Myriad God Emperors of the Divine Star Regions were "allies" that only applied in dealing with foreigner and possible invasions of the Divine Star Region.

Other than that, they were enemies that wanted nothing more than to kill each other. They watched each other with great cautiousness and waited for a moment when one of them got weekend considerably so they could attack and obtain some benefits.

Me killing Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave would probably cost Irtarr's True Body to lose several high-ranking planes to his competitors as he wouldn't have enough personnel to protect all of his planes where he is worshipped personally.

This would serve as a great setback and at least some form of revenge for me.

After pondering over the situation for several minutes, I returned to the Miracle City on the Feisuo Plane, where Fia, Vena, and Hela were already waiting, worried and stressed.

After they saw me in my "desperate state" with my armor half-destroyed, blood flowing from my wounds, and using a cane to support myself to walk, all of them instantly rushed to me.

Hela didn't say anything and just started transferring all of her God Power to me, so I could recover more easily and quickly while Fia and Vena were casting healing spells on injuries.

"It was Divine Slave of Irtarr's True Body; I have killed his Avatar. Apparently, he is pretty vengeful or petty, or the Feisuo Plane was more important to him than it appeared. That Divine Slave had the cultivation of Quasi-Emperor Warlock. When he used a secret technique burning his lifeforce and getting a boost of from the Divine Kingdom of Myriad God Emperor, his power was frighteningly high, even more than my state under the God and Devil Domain and Prime Evil ability. However, he could only go in that state for something around 5 minutes, but it was still a hell of a fight."

Irtarr's Divine Slave was very strong; I wonder how strong would his true body be. Myriad God Emperors were really terrifying entities, especially when their Divine Kingdoms supported them.

"We need to finish our work on the Feisuo Plane as soon as possible; previous calculations are not possible more... two years is the maximum time I can give you to complete all works on the Feisuo Plane, we cannot be sure if Irtarr's True Body won't send more people here even though it is not highly possible, but we need to be careful. Any Grade 2 Plane, especially Primary Grade 2 Plane such as Feisuo Plane, is priceless for any God as they could cultivate the enormous number of worshippers here and subordinates due to the plane being capable of holding even Myriad God Emperor."

I explained as I let myself be healed by my wives, who were worried about me.

"If we mobilize most of our free forces and some civilian forces, we can make it in a timespan that you stated..."

Said Vena after pondering over this topic for a while.

"We can station here one of the Armies of the Imperialis Militarum who don't have any deployment orders. Aside from guarding the plane, they could help with all works going on across the entire plane."

Stated Hela shortly after Vena.

"Which one is available?"

I asked her while I checked my injuries.

"I can send here 4th Army Imperial Sentinels, under the command of Lord General Belphegor."

Stated Hela, as I agreed with her proposition.

4th Army Imperial Sentinels was an army mainly focusing on defense, fortification works, defensive warfare, and similar things. They were perfect for this kind of task; additionally, the 4th Army Imperial Sentinels were permanently stationed at the Baator, near the Imperial City, as they were also the army tasked with the protection of the 9th Layer of the Baator, Nessus.

"Excellent; Fia sent here all available mechs and deploy part of the Imperial Mech Army; now we can transport here some of them. Their efficiency would be far superior to ordinary mining mechs with their Tier 8 prowess."

Grayfia nodded and went to carry out my order.

9th Layer of Baator, Nessus, near the capital of the Chthonian Empire, Anor Londo, City of Augustgrad

"Lord General Belphegor."

Said Grayfia, whose face appeared on the Holo-Brain, which belonged to Lord General Ryogun Belphegor.

She was a beautiful young woman appearing in her twenties with long, wavy, cherry blossom hair and two horns protruding from her head. She wears high-cut battle armor with high slits and has a well-endowed bust and slim waist.

She was a very powerful Apocalypse-Class Devil who commanded a 4th Army Imperial Sentinels since their founding and was also a Head of the Belphegor Family, Chthonian Lord House, and held a prestigious position across the Empire.

"High Chancellor."

Greeted her Ryogun.

"You are immediately deployed at the Feisuo Plane together with the entire 4th Army Imperial Sentinels. Your task is to guard the plane and help with all resource gathering and related tasks."

Said Grayfia as Lord General Belphegor saluted her.

"Yes, High Chancellor, it shall be done."

The call then ended.

"Immediately mobilize all Imperial Sentinels; we need to have complete mobilization done within 12 hours."

Ordered Lord General Ryogun Belphegor to her adjutant as they then hurried away from the room to carry out her orders.

Feisuo Plane, Miracle City

"Now we only have to wait until the things are done before returning back home."

I stated as Venelana snuggled close to me as she put her head on my chest.

"How long till you are healed completely?"

Vena asked quietly.

"Three weeks."

I stated. Because of their healing spells were very potent, they helped me a lot and especially Hela when she gave me all of her Divine Energy that sped up my recovery considerably, as my Godhood started regenerating me extremely fast.

"That is good, but in case, I will ask grandpa Zekram to come here."

Stated Vena.

Zekram was similar to me, as he achieved a peak of Dimensional-Class, and he was very close to reaching the fusion of Laws and ascending to Lord-Class. While his combat prowess was a bit lacking compared to mine, mainly because of my Godhood, but if not for my Godhood, my offensive prowess would be lower compared to Zekram.

With Zekram here, it would be another failsafe, as my combat prowess was lowered considerably due to my injuries.

His Path that he is forging is extremely destructive; he comprehended several Laws, including the Law of Extermination, Decay, and several others related to "destruction", so he achieved an unprecedented level of destructive powers.

He would be enough if even Irtarr sent another Divine Slave, of course, taking into consideration that he wouldn't be as strong as Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave.

[Trafford]

Some time later, Canghzi Plane, the Capital City of the Great Cloud Dynasty.

In the Great Cloud Dynasty royal palace, in the Immortal Cloud Hall, there are nine purple coiling dragons exuding Bright World Warlock rank.

The throne was a unique Empyrean-Grade Secret Treasure named Magic Note Throne, refined by the 7th Warlock Dynasty, Magic Note Dynasty. Although this Empyrean-grade secret treasure has no offensive ability, but it can gather the power of the Dynasty's people to form something akin to a faith force – an imperial force.

Magic Note Dynasty used this peerless treasure to cultivate countless experts, from whom many reached Holy Spirit Warlock Realm.

Above the heads of the nine purple dragons, there is a purple gold throne, and on the throne, there sits the handsome and majestic Bai Wuqing.

The Great Cloud Dynasty's royal family is different from other Warlock groups. Generally, the strongest experts of the various sects are Great Elders, while the Sect Masters are in charge of various ordinary affairs. As for the royal family, the Emperor is the strongest expert.

In the world of Warlocks, the strongest rule. A Warlock Emperor rank expert can suppress all the forces in the Cangzhi Plane by themselves. With the title of Emperor, you can have the resources and power of the entire Great Cloud Dynasty to practice cultivation. Consequently, virtually every Emperor of the Great Cloud Dynasty was an Infinity Warlock.

Three people are standing in front of Bai Wuqing, and they are the Three Ducal Ministers – the Grand Preceptor, the Grand Tutor, and the Grand Protector.

Below the Three Ducal Ministers, there are the Nine Ministers of the Three Departments and Six Ministries.

The Three Grand Ministers and the Nine Ministers all exude Infinity Warlock rank fluctuations of power.

In addition to the Three Grand Ministers and the Nine Ministers, all the ministers of the Imperial Courts exude powerful fluctuations of power comparable to that of Transcendents.

A Censor with Moonlight Warlock rank cultivation base stepped out and said.

"Your Majesty, activities of Baatorians are growing more and more numerous with each passing day. By our sources, entire Sub-Continents have already fallen into their control, especially those under the influence of the Three Western Dynasties, as the Western Warlock World didn't pay any attention to the expansionist activities of the devil worshippers and Baatorians themselves. Unfortunately, they are now spreading into our Great Cloud Dynasty. We have documented several cases of devil intrusions here, especially in the Li Gui Province."

Finished his report, the Moonlight Warlock Censor.

The Li Gui Province is a marvel among the Great Cloud Dynasty's lesser provinces. The Li Gui Province is both larger and richer than many greater provinces of the Great Cloud Dynasty. But it is just a lesser province, and the biggest reason for that is that it is a forbidden area for Infinity Warlocks. After Infinity Warlocks enter Li Gui Province, they will die in less than 30 days. Since Infinity Warlocks of the Great Cloud Dynasty cannot enter the Li Gui Province, it made the province a chaotic place where Warlock groups that don't obey the rule of the Great Cloud Dynasty gather.

So even though the Li Gui Province was part of the Great Cloud Dynasty, its grip on it was weak as there were countless lawless factions and rogue elements. For this reason, the entire province was surrounded by several military fortresses, and entire armies composed of high-ranking warlôocks were stationed near the Li Gui Province or directly at its borders to prevent anyone from escaping from it.

The next one to speak was Wei Jin of the Ministry of War of the Six Ministries.

"We also need to deal with other insurrectionist elements within the Great Cloud Dynasty, as several of these devil worshippers appear to be in contact with Eight Aristocratic Family and Ten Great Sects; apparently, they are trying to instigate the rebellion against the Great Cloud Dynasty."

Explained Minister of War Wei Jin as, Emperor of the Great Cloud Dynasty frowned in annoyance.

Bai Wuqing long ago hated these sects and aristocratic families, as he viewed them as a liability in his Dynasty and possible threats. Just like Bai Family ended their sovereignty, he feared that history could repeat itself.

"Bai Yan, what has your Intelligence Department collected about these foreign invaders?"

Asked Bai Wuqing slowly as he looked at the Head of the Intelligence Department, who was named Bai Yan, a member of the Bai Family, one of the Grand Princes and Infinity Warlock.

Weak factions like these didn't have a lot of information about Baator, as they lacked even Warlock Monarchs. Hence, it was very problematic to collect some information about the Chthonian Empire of the Baator, aside from some generally known information.

"Yes, Your Majesty. We have managed to capture a few high-ranking Devil Worshippers, and also, one of our executives managed to buy some information from a traveling Arcanist. We have concluded that these invaders are, for sure, led by someone from the Imperial House of the Chthonian Empire or one of the Elector Lord Houses; there is still a possibility it is led by some of the High Lords, but that is small, all over this is bad news for us, as each of these is backed by Apocalypse-Class or Dimensional-Class entities, and compared to their Warlock Cultivation counterparts, their combat prowess is way higher. Fortunately, such strong people cannot enter the Canghzi Plane due to the deterrence of the Six Imperial Courts that are presiding over the Canghzi Plane, so the only logical conclusion is that a person who is leading them is Super Devil at most, probably someone who already achieved his Law Baptism. Hence, his combat prowess is comparable to weaker Warlock Monarchs. Arcanists said that in the entire Baator, there are only a few such people with enough social standing to initiate an operation like this, so the highest possible outcome is that the leader should be Crown Prince Abrasax Leviathan-Lucifer, son of the current Emperor and grandson of Father of All Devils."

Concluded his speech, Head of the Intelligence Department Bai Yan, as grave silence took over the Imperial Hall.

[Trafford]

While Bai Family was strong, on the Canghzi Plane Surface World, compared to truly powerful factions, it was nothing. Even 2nd-rate and 3rd-rate factions in the Core World or even Astral Boundary as a whole have at least one Tier 9 Powerhouse presiding over it.

While Bail Family had 3 Mighty Stage Gods, they were confined to their plane where they ascended as Gods, so for the Bai Family and Great Cloud Dynasty as a whole, dealing with even a small expeditionary group from the Chthonian Empire backed by its Nobles was a headache as hell.

Especially when hearing that Crown Prince Abraxas Leviathan-Lucifer led the Baatorians.

Chthonian Empire had very strict and high requirements for Nobility, and they were actualized each time when the general strength of the population increased.

For example, Bright World Warlocks, who were considered peerless experts on the Canghzi Plane, second only to the Infinity Warlocks, were just entrance level to be even considered Noble House; of course, those who wanted to be Nobles needed not only to achieve Satan-Class, equivalent to the Bright World Warlock but also had some inheritable uniqueness, such as Bloodline, Ability or something. Hence, their combat prowess was usually superior to the Bright World Warlock.

On the Canghzi Plane's main continents, when Warlock achieved Moonlight Warlock Realm, they were entitled to create their own Noble House. Contrary to that, in the Baator, Ultimate-Class, which was the same rank as Moonlight Warlock, were considered just as stronger cannon fodder, nothing more and nothing less; at best, they would be elite standard soldiers.

There was an enormous disparity between their strength, but fortunately, the strongest person who descended had the combat prowess of only Warlock Monarch, meaning with necessary sacrifices and traps, Bai Wuqing believed that the Great Cloud Dynasty could deal with the invaders.

"Order the Demon Hunting Division to start hunting all Devil Worshippers and breaking down their cults that are worshipping Baatorians. At the same time, notify watchers that we have identified this threat. They will possibly deal with this mess; if not, the only thing that remains for the Great Cloud Dynasty is to prepare some traps to deal with Baatorians."

Ordered Bai Wuqing.

"Also, there is a question, how did these invaders even enter the Canghzi Plane in the first place?"

Pondered Bai Wuqing before someone said.

"The most probable reason is that someone let them in. They probably observed the entire Canghzi Plane and studied its political landscape for a long time. After gathering sufficient information, they made their move. We know that the first place where they appeared was Turandot Subcontinent, which is closer to the Western Warlock World; they purposely chose one of the three Western Dynasties to grow their influence and gather worshippers who would open Astral Gates for them to enter the Canghzi Plane."

Summarized situation Head of the Intelligence Department of the Great Cloud Dynasty.

"Indeed, while Western Warlock Dynasties are weaker, their backers Immortal Halls are still pretty powerful; unfortunately, they are complete isolationists, so they would not watch over what is happening at the Canghzhi Plane. This gave Baatorians the necessary space to grow. Either way, we need to deal with this threat, and we will start with their worshippers. At the same time, we can use this as a reason to deal with Ten Great Sects who will not submit completely to the Great Cloud Dynasty."

Proclaimed Bai Wuqing with an authoritative voice as everyone clapped their hands in agreement as they went to carry out the orders of their Emperor.

***

Turandot Subcontinent, Underground World, Fortress of the Chthonian Empire

"Your Highness, excavators have sent a message that they have found the place where the Holy Spirit Warlock-ranked Hellions are sealed, and by fluctuations, some of them are the pinnacle of the Great Holy, and there are even Quasi-Emperor, ranked Hellions, fortunately, their seals are still strong, but they are visibly weakening, and in a few centuries they would completely break down."

Reported one of the Custodians to the Crown Prince Abraxas Leviathan-Lucifer, who was in charge of this operation.

"Excellent, bring install there Energy Extractors and Anti-Magic Domain Device, afterward transport all Hellions back to the Baator for research. Under their weakened state, we can use them as research material; if not, kill them outright before they become a threat."

Ordered Abraxas.

Hellions were basically bio-engineered soldiers created through forbidden alchemy, genetic manipulation and mysticism rituals by Taboo Dynasty in collaboration with a few Arcanists. If the Chthonian Empire could properly research their genetics and their creations, it would be priceless as it could be used to develop a new way to strengthen species of the Baator.

Or we could create our own version of Hellions, with better control, as it was common knowledge that Hellions were hard to control even by their creators, and they often went berserk and attacked everything in their sight, making them a double-edged weapon for use.

Abrasax originally wanted to kill them, but in the end, High Command decided it would be more productive to send them to Ancestor, Ajuka, and Mephisto to research. All three were extremely powerful, and Ajuka and Mephisto were on the verge of reaching Dimensional-Class, so it would be no problem for them to deal with significantly weakened Hellions.

"How is the output of the resources we are obtaining at the Canghzi Plane and shipping back to the Empire?"

Aksed Abraxas one of his adjutant.

"Very good, especially when we have reached the last layer of the Underground World of the Turandot Subcontinent; that place is filled with precious herbs, rare ores, and even some extraordinary lifeforms. Additionally, our gains through our cultists on main continents are growing day by day."

Summarized his adjutant as Abraxas nodded in satisfaction.

"I have also ordered our cult leaders to be extra careful, as we have noticed some suspicious movements in the Great Cloud Dynasty. They are probably preparing to make a move against our pawns there."

Abraxas knew that sooner or later, factions here would notice them and fight with them, it was only a matter of time, but he was ready for that.

Something more than a year later, Feisuo Plane, Miracle City

After more than one year, all work that needed to be done on the Feisuo Plane was already finished. With the deployment of all workers forces of the Chthonian Empire, part of the Mech Army and 4th Army Imperial Sentinels, all resources were mined, and all extraordinary lifeforms were transported back to the Baator together with rare plants and trees.

High-ranking planes such as Feisuo Plane had a staggering amount of resources, enough to construct several new fleets and expand the mech army several times. Unfortunately, in terms of precious herbs and rare extraordinary lifeforms, the Feisuo Plane was poor, like many other planes controlled by Gods.

Usually, when Gods took control of some plane, one of the first things they would do was exterminate all strong extraordinary lifeforms and rare herbs, plants, and trees. It was done for a reason to prevent the local population from getting powerful.

For example, if this was any other Grade 2 Plane, it would be full of very strong monsters, extraordinary lifeforms that reached even Dimensional-Class Level Monsters could be found there, and it would be full of very precious herbs and plants would be everywhere.

Still, the loot in the form of ores and metals was crucial for the industrial development of the Chthonian Empire, as we needed many more than what we had just obtained, as everything required precious metals and ores. We needed to construct new Fleets, Mechs, and other things.

Right now, all forces of the Chthonian Empire were already leaving the Feisuo Plane back to the Baator while I was going to activate the ritual, which will refine the Planaar Core of the Feisuo Plane to evolve the Baator.

The entire Feisuo Plane, plus what has remained here, mainly mortals whom we just ignored and let them be, would be used as a sacrifice to expand and strengthen the first Eight Layers of the Baator. I hoped that the first Eight Layers would be grown exponentially and the overall strength of the Baator Plane would be raised to a new level.

Of course, I knew that it would be impossible for Baator to reach Grade 1 Plane, but with some luck, it would reach the Primary Grade 2 Plane, which was already capable of holding Tier 11 existences like Lord-Class or Warlock Emperors.

"Is everything prepared?"

I asked Hela, who was standing beside me as she was responsible for the evacuation of all military and civilian personnel, including all equipment and mechs from the Feisuo Plane.

"Yes, everyone has been evacuated, and all equipment has been transported back to the Baator. Planar Refinement Towers have been built around the planar core and are functioning as expected. Stabilizers are also in place. The refinement could start."

Stated Hela as I nodded and signaled Hela that I was about to start the procedure.

After several centuries, Chthonian Empire was very proficient in refining planar cores. In the past, we used a purely arcane way of mysticism to refine the planar cores of conquered planes; nowadays, the core method remains the same, only with some additions.

Now we used Planar Refinement Towers alongside the previously used mysticism ritual, which was also upgraded for the best output. These Planar Refinenemnt Towers could refine the planar core more precisely, and energy leaks were precisely 0% thanks to them. Meaning nothing was lost during the refinement process.

Stabilizers prevent an overwhelming amount of energy from going berserk, as that could easily happen during the refinement of planar cores, especially during the refinement of high-ranking planes.

Another thing that eased up the transportation of the energy was a specially constructed Planar Elevator, from through the energy was mined, refined, and transported back to the Baator safely, quickly, and without any leaks.

I swiftly activated the refinement spell formation that was inscribed around the Planar Core and activated all arcanotech devices and started the refining procedure.

Soon enough entire plane shook, as across the whole plane, countless arcanotech towers popped up from the ground, and several spell formations activated and started refining the Planar Core of the Feisuo Plane.

After several minutes of me controlling the core formation, the planar core started being refined and releasing an enormous amount of energy, as all of that energy was being extracted by countless Arcanotech Towers and was instantly transported by the Planar Elevator back to the Baator, where it was instantly absorbed by a planar core of the Baatorian Plane.

With each passing second, the energy output was increasing, and it was also noticeable on the Baator. The energy density on all Layers of the Baator was continuously growing. More importantly, as slowly as the Feisuo Plane crumbled away, all Layers of the Baator were expanding at slow speed, at least for now.

I controlled the spell formation with precision as I continued refining the planar core of the Feisuo Plane with relative ease, mainly because of my previous experiences with this and other preparations that were prepared.

After several hours entire process of the planar refinement was finished, which ended with Feisuo Plane being destroyed completely.

At the same time, when the refinement process was finished, the entire Baator started shaking violently as the evolution started.

[Trafford]

Suddenly I felt an enormous wave of energy as I teleported back to the Baator.


Because I was the absolute controller of the Baator, due to the fact that I held complete Command Sequence over the Plane, I benefitted most from the fact of Baator's evolution as Baator was evolving to the Primary Grade 2 Plane.


[Enormous wave of energy is entering the host's body.]


[Demonic-God Force has reached 7,500 Units. Maximum for the Dimensional-Class. Adjusting remaining energy flow.]


[Godhood is reacting... Godhood Index is advancing...]


[Godhood Index has reached 100 Million.]


[Godhood Index has reached 150 Million.]


[Godhood Index has reached 250 Million.]


[Godhood Index has reached 400 Million.]


[Godhood Index has reached 450 Million.]


[Godhood Index has reached 500 Million.]


At the same time, as my Godhood Index was increasing and I reached Half-Step Paramount God, my body reached strength comparable to the Mid Empyrean-Grade Artifact, which means that my durability would be able to withstand even attacks from the Warlock Emperor's with ease right now.


Even though I was still technically Tier 10, with my current combat prowess, even some Tier 11 powerhouses, like Dawn Warlock Emperor, would not be my match in single combat.


A similar effect appeared practically on all citizens of the Baator, of course, to various degrees. Most of it was harvested by my immediate family and Elders of the Baator. The second ones who gathered most of the benefits were people with the strongest cultivation and, of course, Nobles.


Each of the Layers of the Baator expanded tremendously. 1st Layer Avernus expanded from the size comparable to the Grade 9 Plane to the size of the Grade 7 Plane. 2nd to 8th Layer expanded from the size of a Grade 8 Plane to a Grade 5 Plane, while the last Layer, the 9th Layer Nessus reached the size of the Secondary Grade 2 Plane from the size of a Grade 3 Plane.


Now my aim was to increase the Grade 1 Plane, and then I would need to find a method how to strengthen the plane even further, beyond the standards of the Grade 1 Plane, but that is still far in the future.


After digesting the benefits of the evolution of the plane, I was once again a step closer to achieving the Lord-Class, as even my comprehension of the Law of Space increased slightly.


Additionally, with my newly increased power, I could fight some Tier 11 individuals.


If I now fought that Irtarr's Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave, I would win without breaking a sweat, and that was just in my base state, without using any of my trump cards.


That was the result of practicing two power systems at the same time, but like everything in existence, everything has its price. I would need to perfectly fuse these two power systems at some point, meaning my "Devil and Law System" and Godhood Index System to advance even further.


Or else I would not be able to advance further, probably. The Exarch-rank would be my limit, but if I managed to succeed and fuse these two paths, I would create an absolutely unique and powerful power system.


After I returned back to the Anor Londo, I went to the Imperial Palace, where Sirzechs had already waited for me together with members of the Senatorum Imperialis.


"Imperial Father."


Sirzechs gave me a low bow, as other members of the Senatorum Imperialis bowed to me more deeply, following the standard imperial protocol.


"Ancestor."


I nodded as everyone followed me to the Senate Hall, as we all sat on our respective seats, with Sirzechs sitting on the throne belonging to the Emperor, while I sat on the throne which was specially designed for me, for the Father of All Devils.


"You can start."


Stated Sirzechs, as Magister of Domestic Affairs, stepped forward with his report about the current state of the Baator.


The report was mainly real-time information about the expansion of the Baator and some minor things that I wasn't that curious about, as that was mainly for Sirzechs, as the current Emperor, to deal with.


"Now, the next thing to discuss is an invasion of the Noscent Plane, which was submitted by Patriarch of the Silvermoon Elves Verath Windrunner and Patriarch of the Three-Headed Golden Dragon Tribe Villentretenmerth."


Stated Grayfia, who was the High Chancellor of the Chthonian Empire.


Noscent Plane was a rare sealed Plane in the Astral Boundary located in the Ancient Eternity Star Region. It was the birthplace of both Silvermoon Elves and the Three-Headed Golden Dragon Tribe, who once ruled the Noscent until they were overthrown by humans there.


The majority of their species perished in the bloody rebellion led by some human named Charles the Great, who then established his Bloodline Dynasty. For centuries, they recuperated their strength and thirsted for revenge in the Baator.


Noscent itself was a Primary Grade 2 Plane, which was sealed, meaning nobody could easily access it, aside from interconnected planes with it. On top of that, Noscent was fascinating because aside from being a sealed plane, it had its own power system that was practiced by natives of that plane, meaning that plane served as a "lab" for some Eternal-ranked Powerhouse who was researching new power system for further advancement.


For most of the Tier 12 Powerhouses who achieved Eternal-rank, Exarchy, or similar, it was very hard to advance even further and ascend to the Great Old One. Usually, these powerhouses needed to forge their own path from that moment; experimenting with new power systems was a norm for such people.


After everyone had said their part, it was time for Sirzechs to decide if they would initiate the invasion of the Noscent Plane or not, as stated in his duty as Emperor of the Chthonian Empire.


"I have decided to support the invasion of the Noscent Plane, though, only after it is confirmed that the person who sealed this plane is proved to be dead. Further details shall be discussed with Patriarch Villentretenmerth and Patriarch Windrunner."


Stated Sirzechs as everyone accepted this outcome.

[Trafford]

After the meeting of the Senatorum Imperialis concluded, I went together with Sirzechs to meet Patriarch Villentretenmerth and Patriarch Windrunner.

Patriarch Villentretenmerth was almost two meters high, a middle-aged man with short golden hair, a well-groomed golden beard, and golden eyes with reptile pupils.

Patriarch Windrunner looked like a typical Silvermoon Elf, with long blond hair and long pointy ears, and he maintained youthful looks.

The meeting took place in the solar in the Imperial Palace, where Patriarchs of two species from the already waiting for us.

Aside from those two, there was also an additional person waiting with them, and that was the daughter of the Patriarch Windrunner, Sylvanas Windrunner. She looked breathtaking, befitting her status as a Princess of Silvermoon Elves.

When I saw Sylvanas, my brows twitched in annoyance as I instantly realized why she was there. Basically, her father was trying to set me up with his daughter for more than two hundred years, mainly to secure a more prosperous and stronger position within the Empire.

Especially after the daughter of Villentretenmerth, Seasenthessis married the firstborn son of Crom Cruach and Tiamat. This sparked a new wave of rivalry between Windrunner and Villentretenmerth. It was an act that raised the status of the Three-Headed Golden Dragon Tribe to new highs.

"Your Imperial Majesty, Ancestor."

All three of them bowed slightly as Sirzechs singled them to sit down, as we all sat down around the table.

"Now, at the meeting of the Senatorum Imperialis, it was decided that Chthonian Empire will invade Noscent Plane; of course, this is under the presumption person who created your previous home and sealed it to prevent the anger of Eternal for destroying his experiment."

Stated Sirzechs, as both Patriarchs took his word.

Meanwhile, when Sirzechs was discussing some minor things with them, I contacted Mercurius as he was most knowledgeable in these matters. I asked him about this plane, and as I predicted, he knew who created this plane and sealed it.

The person who created it was named Ashan, he was ironically killed by Mercurious himself a long time ago, so Noscent Plane was free to go and conquer. Ashan was a powerhouse from ancient times of the Astral Boundary, even before Mercurius became Half-Step Tier 13.

He created Noscent as means of creating a new form of Divine Cultivation System, so he could fuse it together with his current path and ascend as a Tier 13 Entity. Unfortunately for Ashan, his research came to the interest of Mercurius, who ambushed him and killed him.

"It is safe."

I said mildly, as both Verath Windrunner and Villentretenmerth showed a dangerous glint in their eyes as they saw the possibility of revenge against the humans who overthrew them and slaughtered countless of their species.

"We are able to deploy for the conquest 6th Army of the Imperialis Militarum Draco Aeterna and 8th Army Silver Rangers. Noscent Plane should have some really strong people slumbering there, right?"

Asked Sirzechs.

"Indeed. While the Ascian Dynasty of Ancient Gods has fallen, we have long suspected that many of them are still alive, even though they are in slumber."

Stated Patriarch Villentretenmerth.

The Power System in the Noscent Plane was a place where the main path lay in magic and its mages. Starting from the Mage Apprentice (Tier 1), Mage Level 1 - 9 (Tier 2), Great Mage Level 10 - 19 (Tier 3), High Mage Level 20 - 29 (Tier 4), Archmage Level 30 - 39 (Tier 5 and Tier 6), Heaven Mage Level 40 - 49 (Tier 8).

Above Heaven Level was Deity Level 50 - 59, which was comparable to Tier 9, and the strongest beings were titled Transcendentals, who had the power of Tier 10.

Apparently, based on information provided by two Patriarchs, Noscent Plane has several Transcendentals and an entire bunch of Deities who should still be alive.

This means that the Chthonian Empire would need to send some of its Tier 10 Powerhouses for the invasion.

Ironically weaker Universes have more diverse power systems, as they have more of them compared to the stronger Universe, which already has Divine Thrones and a more significant number of Great Old Ones.

The reason for that was, or instead were, Tier 12 Powerhouses who searched the way to advance even further. This practice was somewhat necessary for strong Universes as they already have perfected paths.

"Now, we need to prepare for the conquest. This one will be the most brutal and hardest fight that the Chthonian Empire has ever experienced. If it is successful, our strength could soar in leaps and bounds and will be perfect preparations for our clash with Warlock Dynasties when they awake."

I stated as everyone nodded grimly, hearing that.

"How many interconnected planes are there with Noscent Plane?"

Asked Sirzechs after a while.

Noscent Plane was one of the rare ones, which has several tens of interconnected planes for it. It is clear that the person who created Noscent was planning to develop it to extreme limits, so he prepared countless other planes and sealed them together with the Noscent, so inhabitants of the Noscent could initiate planar wars and plunder the resources of weaker planes to strengthen themselves, fastening the growth of its inhabitants.

In truth, this was a pretty smart move because, without special artifacts, it was almost impossible to leave sealed planes. If not for Silvermoon Elves and Three-Headed Golden Dragon Tribe finding one of the research site of the Eternal, where a such artifact was concurrent, they wouldn't have escaped from the Noscnet at all.

"Based on our information, there should be around sixty or so... the precise number is hard to determine, as some have already been destroyed during the 1st Era of the Noscent Plane by Ancient Gods who tried to escape the Noscent and reach Astral Boundary."

Answered Patriarch Villentretenmerth.

[Trafford]

Canghzi Plane, Fuso Subcontinent

"Your Highness, we got green from the High Command for the operation."

Reported one of the Custodians who was stationed at the Canhzi Plane to guard Crown Prince Abraxas Leviathan-Lucifer.

"Excellent, the Fuso Divine Tree is one of the peerless treasures of the Canhzi Plane, and right now is the only opportunity to get it without too much bloodshed and attention, at least partially."

Fuso Subcontinent was one of the Subcontinents of the Canghzi Plane. However, it was one of the largest and strongest ones, as it had warlocks at the Bright World Warlock Realm somewhere hidden, and in the past, there were even some Great Step Holy Spirit Warlocks originating from the Fuso Subcontinent.

The entire Fuso Subcontinent was ruled mainly by the Holy Glory State, which had several Infinity Warlocks. While there were some smaller states, they were not that important compared to the Holy Glory State, not to mention the fact that the Fuso Divine Tree was located in the Holy Glory State.

"Your Highness, we have got information from the Executioners and spies planted there that factions on the Fuso Subcontinent, there are countless people there with means to summon Evil Beings from the Evil God Plane, Executioners are predicting they may have relics to summon even Mighty Stage Evil Gods."

Stated the Custodian, as Abraxas nodded in agreement as this was predicted.

The Evil God Plane was a chaotic plane filled with danger, where killing was as common as breathing. Apart from life forms native to the plane, there were many formidable life forms comparable to gods created by the 2nd Warlock Dynasty, the Taboo Dynasty, through various taboo experiments in the Evil God Plane.

Not only from them but also from various Arcanists who dumped there practically everything they had, some forbidden lifeforms, far more terrifying than anything that Astral Boundary had ever seen, were slumbering in the Evil God Plane.

Now that the Warlock Imperial Courts were in "seclusion", other warlocks were unruly, and some warlock factions often either colluded with Abyssal Fiends, worshipped Gods or Evil Gods, or were in cahoots with who knows who.

Devils were also one of the species who were warlocks turning to obtain a higher form of power.

In the Fuso Subcontinent, in the center of the Holy Glory State, a 10,000-meter-tall Fuso Divine Tree towering into the clouds with dense and lush foliage lit up with a gentle green light that covered the entire Holy Glory State.

The Holy Glory State's capital, the Holy Glory City, was a rare cultivation holy land located in the center of the Fuso Subcontinent.

The Fuso Divine Tree is a treasure in its integrity, but it is also a peerless powerhouse of unfathomable strength. There was once a newly advanced Holy Spirit Warlock who wanted to cut it down and make it into a treasure, but the Holy Spirit Warlock was suppressed instead. Reportedly, the Infinity Warlock has become its nutrient.

The Fuso Divine Tree was a powerful divine tree that has survived from the ancient god age. It was a treasure in its entirety as well as a first-rate material for crafting Empyrean-grade secret treasures. The powerful divine trees of the same age as the Fuso Subcontinent were basically all cut down by the Warlock Emperors or other existences of the same rank and made into powerful treasures. For the Fuso Divine Tree to be able to survive for so long, there naturally must be some reason behind it.

"Devil... what an interesting specimen."

Sounded an archaic voice in the head of Crown Prince Abrasax Leviathan-Lucifer.

"Are you the consciousness of the Fuso Divine Tree?"

Asked Crown Prince Abraxas Leviathan-Lucifer.

"Indeed, I am. Why have you wished to contact me?"

Questioned Crown Prince Abrasax Abraxas -Lucifer.

"I know why you have come here... indeed. Your Ancestor must be really interested in obtaining me if he is ignoring the threat of all Warlock Emperors who are still alive."

Stated Fuso Divine Tree.

In truth, the Fuso Divine Tree wanted to get out of the Canghzi Plane for a very long time, mainly because of greedy Warlock Emperors who would cut the Divine Tree down, like other Divine Trees. Fuso Divine Tree was the last of its kind at the Canhzi Plane, and it bore a great deal of hatred for Warlocks, who destroyed all of its kin and turned it into secret treasures and other things.

"What do you want for an exchange, Fuso Divine Tree? There is no free lunch in this world."

Stated Crown Prince.

"Indeed. With the capabilities of your Ancestor together with my own power, relocation should be of no problem. In exchange for all warlock knowledge I have gathered for countless Eras, I want only one thing that is enough nutrients to reach Lordhood."

Stated Fuso Divine Tree, as Crown Prince Abrasax Leviathan-Lucifer, revealed a toothy grin as he practically won. Chthonian Empire would do anything in their power to strengthen the Fuso Divine Tree because it was a peerless lifeform like Dou Dou, who would be best at protecting Imperial Palace, where they wanted to plant the Divine Tree.

"Excellent, then allow me to plant these teleportation devices across your roots. With this, you would be able to teleport entirely without any problem."

Stated Crown Prince Abraxas Leviathan-Lucifer as he ordered his subordinates to carry out this task.

After several hours it was done; Fuso Divine Tree gave him a signal to start.

Instantly, tremendous power was released from the teleportation devices, as the Ancestor of the Baator and Father of All Devils was using the power of the Baator to forcibly teleport the Fuso Divine Tree from the Canghzi Plane to the Baator.

Fuso Divine Tree, who sensed this change, used all of his power to boost up the teleportation devices, as huge blinding light enveloped the entire Fuso Subcontinent, reaching even the Core World of the Canghzi Plane, where all powerhouses realized that something nefarious for the Warlocks was taking place.
