Chapter 329: Martial God, Omega Core
This was far more than Azmodeus had bargained for, but he wasn\'t one to complain about some damn good free benefits!
"Raising that Harkath from the ground up really was worth it, umu!"
While sitting above the heavens on a divinely iridescent cloud dragon, the absolute god of this world watched the rest of the latest Heavenly Transfiguration.
By the 12-quintillion-year milestone, the second Cosmic Realm organism was born.
Apparently being the second disciple of the Leviathan God, he was considered the official successor of his master.
However, it was quite clear that Harkath wasn\'t yet ready to give up his throne as the \'Absolute Ruler of the Underworld\', so in the end, Jin Chao, the Martial God, was forced to wait.
With another 10 quintillion years having flown by in the blink of an eye, Jin Chao got sick and tired of waiting for the old fart to pass on the throne. Therefore, he rose up in rebellion and started the largest war to ever arrive on Pandora!
Bigger than all the races\' greed wars and bigger than the Uprising of the Gravity Race!
The Martial War.
It was one of many global wars, and it was also one of the numerous wars targeting Harkath, the Original Absolute God.
This war lasted for 15+ quintillion years, and even though Harkath could\'ve ended the war in a single blow, everyone knew that war was good for business. Hence, it was only natural that Harkath permitted the continuation of the war.
Allowing all their forces to fight to their heart\'s content, their power was refined in the flames of war, subsequently causing the Qi Density of the world to once again improve!
With thousands of Cosmic Realm cultivators popping up every day, the 2nd Order Cosmic Realm Martial God amassed himself a force rivaling his master\'s army.
It was on the day that marked the 28th Quintillionth birthday of Pandora that the Martial God got tired of waiting.
Sending out everything he had, he planned to end it all in one go!
However, with the fruits of the war reaching their absolute limit, Harkath figured it was about time to end this little farce. Therefore, he appeared above the \'Endless Cosmic Expanse\' and slashed down with a thin, simple blade.
A few inches in diameter and white in color—a single slash of this sword was all Harkath needed in order to erase more than 50% of the opposing forces!
One simple strike to kill off 50%+ of the opposing powerhouses!
The Martial God lost an arm in this one attack. Flying into a senseless rage, he burned through his life force and shot through the starry night sky, aiming to sever the head from his master\'s body!
Sigh…
"Foolish child. Have you learned nothing?"
Heaving an ancient, inexplicable sigh, Harkath was going to strike down his second disciple and be done with it. But before his blade could reach its target, the Void Monarch materialized from the void and thwarted off his senior brother with ease!
Thereafter, both the Void Monarch and the Martial God entered a very heated exchange.
Many slurs and curses were thrown around as they continuously shattered the fabric of reality. And by the end of their intense battle, the Martial God was left without one of his eyes and one of his arms.
Floating through the void of space, he wondered something that all powerful entities had in their minds before they perished…
Why…?
Why did I lose…?
Why was I not strong enough to plow through any obstacles and acquire what I wanted??
The thoughts of the powerful always seemed to align with one singular train of thought. And even now, Azmodeus had no idea why that was.
"Is the system trying to show and teach me something else? Something that will allow me to progress further down the path of a Loot God…"
Pondering this matter for a moment, Azmodeus failed to notice the ceaseless passing of time in the Infinite World.
With the death of the Martial God, his origin returned to the world, and a new Leader of Shadow Garden was crowned.
Taking away the main (harem) members of Shadow Garden, Harkath passed on everything else to his first and most loyal disciple, the Void Monarch!
Unable to obtain the ultimate harem that his master possessed, the Martial God died with an untold number of regrets…
"Damn. All that dude ever wanted was the beautiful women that hovered around his master. But in the end, he lost that privilege to the junior brother, who came in at the last second and stole all the credit. Well, f*ck… I feel for ya, Martial God."
Giving his regards to the Martial God, Azmodeus was able to give him a little comfort on his journey into the afterlife.
After all was said and done, time resumed its ever-present grasp on everything in existence…
With the 40 quintillionth birthday of Pandora rapidly approaching, Harkath lived the epitome of comfort with his harem in his 6th retirement…
"Wait, just how many times has that moron retired?? It feels like just about every day, that idiot finds a new woman and decides that working is not worth it anymore…" Shaking his head in disappointment, Azmodeus focused on the progress made by the Metal Race.
With the Metal Race being the latest race to join the party, they were also those with the newest and most original mindsets.
This was especially proven to be the case when they gathered together at the center of the seemingly infinitely-sized world.
Building something that would take countless years, they worked on the creation of the next major step in technological advancements!
The Omega Core.
It was what the Metal Race termed their brain baby, and it was also the name that would forever be etched down in the history books!
Being a construct that could simultaneously improve every aspect of existence with a supercomputer and an active Qi Fluctuator, the Omega Core was the future of Martial Arts!
