Chapter 372: Asenath's Death

The Black Hole's ability to devour physical, spiritual, and essence existences had never been fully utilized. At best, Yan Zaizen had used it to cultivate. Never before did he actively use it in battle.

Mainly because he didn't have the power to do so, as his soul cultivation base often lagged behind his other powers, forcing it into a state of inferiority. However, today was different.

His soul had reached the Paragon Soul Realm, merged seamlessly with his Dao of Sovereign Ascension, and his Soul Bloodline connection increased his control. With these influences, his soul cultivation exceeded his heavenly cultivation base by a large margin.

In fact, he estimated his soul energy alone rivaled the strength of a Heavenly Creation Realm expert at the First Phase, likely with Two or Three-Folds of Minor Heavenly Dimensions established. This strength was by no means weak.

Coupled this base strength with his unique soul bloodline and dao soul amplification, he would likely be invincible against even a Nine-Fold, First Phase Heavenly Creation Realm expert.

With that power base as the foundation for his Soul Bloodline, how powerful would its terrifying devouring abilities reach?

Swirl~

His black hole began to spin. This spin cycle looked slow, but as it appeared in Asenath's vision, a deep, unfathomable sense of dread emerged in her heart. Her instincts screamed for her to recall her Original Law Essence, but she knew that if she did, that death-bringing finger would surely send soul energy into her soul.

It would be her death.

Therefore, she could only press forward. The motes of essence should collide with Yan Zaizen's physical body at this close range, subjecting him to the strongest expression of power of the Dreaming Devil Law. If everything worked as it should, Yan Zaizen's existence would be lulled into slumber and vanish like the two knights.

However, while man plans, the heaven laughs. In this particular case, Yan Zaizen was heaven.

Woosh~

Another spin.

Woosh~

Another spin.

With each spin, an attractive force was born. In much the same way as the Sub-Realm collapse, the motes of essence seemed to be drawn by an unnatural force that it couldn't resist.

In a literal blink of an eye, the motes of essence vanished into the black hole.

Yan Zaizen's eyes flickered with a devilish light, dreamy to the max, and hazy beyond belief. A baleful energy spewed out of his eyes.

'Is this...is this the True Origin of an Original Law?' He became briefly lost in the sensation of enlightenment. Suddenly, a thought emerged in his mind as the essence was digested by his soul bloodline.

A devilish avatar, hazy in shape and description, but with clear malevolent eyes was birthed within his soul form. It appeared at a corner, unattached to any category of law.

'Is...this the Law of Dreaming Devil?' His mind exploded with all sorts of information about this law. It encompassed a mental energy suffused with devilish nature that could affect all forms: soul, body, and mind. Yan Zaizen faintly felt that he could even infect a person on an existential level. That related to the Origin Path and its laws!

This Asenath truly was a genius! She not only reached the peak of Heavenly Cultivation comprehension with three World Heavenly Shrines, but created such a complete law. Her confidence and arrogant attitude truly was justified.

Unfortunately, she met him.

Asenath felt the connection with her Original Law vanish. Instantly, her seven orifices spewed endless spurts of violet blood. Her body began to seizure unnaturally as her pupils became white and unclear, lacking light and focus. Her cultivation regressed as her Original Might vanished, replaced by an aura of heavenly might of her three world laws.

The experience of losing your Original Law may not kill you, but the pain and backlash can induce horrific injuries.

She had directly lost consciousness.

However, Yan Zaizen's eyes did not show a hint of pity. She had the intention to humiliate him and therefore kill him, so how could he display mercy?!

Even if gods wanted to save your life, they would first have to get my permission! Even then, they'll be forced to find it in Hell.

Yan Zaizen withdrew his finger and formed a straight palm like a blade. With a ferocious thrust, he bored directly through her skull. It was like a herculean entered playdough. Her skull and brain matter splashed about, violet blood spewed everywhere like a decapitated head. Her lower and upper jaw seemed to split, hanging at an odd angle.

Clench!

He clenched his fist!

Squish!!

Brain matter and bone fragments seeped through his knuckles. Yan Zaizen directly sent in an enormous amount of soul energy to directly devour her soul and convert it into his own power. It revitalized his soul form, but his eyes were still as cold as a blizzard.

He pulled out, and within his hand was a violet orb of light.

Asenath's Dao!

Her Dao was one similar to Yan Zaizen in nature, but far more ruthless: The Dao of Devil Monarchy, an Upper-Tier Dao. To act ruthless for the sake of power and potential, not just to yourself, but to your followers.

Her controlling her own Zone truly personified her belief that one tiger was enough for one mountain.

The greed was also an aspect of this dao. Yan Zaizen lacked this trait as an inherent feature, never allowing treasure or wealth to overcome his own thoughts or control his actions. This and their bearing divided them greatly.

Yan Zaizen furrowed his brows as he held the Dao Light. "Does the Dao direct your Original Law?" He couldn't help but curiously think. He hadn't met too many Heavenly Creation Realm experts at the Third Phase and he had no idea what their Dao was exactly, even with his Dao Sense, so he had barely any idea.

However, Asenath's Dao conformed perfectly with her Original Law. How could he not ponder this? Was her Dao why her Original Law so complete, covering multiple areas like the Dao itself?

That being said, he didn't let it delay him as he directly opened his mouth and placed the Dao Light within. It entered his body into his Soul Form where he circulated the training method of the 'Grand Soul, Dao Heart' art. As it required foreign dao energy to cultivate, Yan Zaizen felt some caution towards it.

The Dao Light vanished and he felt enlivened. He knew it would require some time to digest this energy, but he could already feel the excitement of his Dao Soul.

As he reveled in this feeling, a heavenly cultivator belonging to Freya's faction turned towards Yan Zaizen and Asenath. His desire to look behind him was purely a nonsensical action done out of pure reverence of Asenath's majesty and reputation. Everyone else was focused on the All-Immortal Dragon, even the dying life auras due to Asenath's actions were believed to be because of the All-Immortal Dragon.

The constant explosions on the All-Immortal Dragon perfectly disguised the brief exchange between Yan Zaizen and Asenath. Therefore, literally no one thought to divide their focus. They may have looked over for a millisecond because of the auras but quickly refocused.

After all, that was Asenath.

However, when that cultivator saw Asenath's limp body and devastated cranium, he paused. A brow was raised. His expression was innocent, only thinking that someone had just died such a vicious death. He only curiously thought: "who?"

Then, a shiver rumbled throughout his body. That shiver turned ice-cold and seemingly hot as his heart pounded fiercely. The figure of his dreams were before him. His subconscious knew this, but his expression had yet to catch up. Then...it did.

Horror.

Absolute horror.

"I...sh-she...I...is she…?" The mind was a fabulous thing, but also mysterious. In this stressful situation, he forgot all about the All-Immortal Dragon and screeched loudly. This screech seemed to contain all his preposterous beliefs of his dreams, his memories of Asenath accompanying him in his bed as he rode to the peak with her as his wife, and many other stupendous things.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!"

Everyone stopped.

This scream caused literally everyone to stop. For some reason, it carried a final soul flare that seemed particularly resplendent. That person's dao, soul, and life was within this scream. He died soon after.

It wasn't just him.

Others in various factions also erupted the moment they saw Asenath and directly died.

Yan Zaizen's eyes flickered. The numerous screams caused his gaze to sweep through the many factions. People were literally dropping like flies. His expression turned incomparably dark.

"How ruthless…to infect your Original Law into other people's Dao, Soul, and Life...they no longer were themselves but sleepers waiting for your orders to awaken from their dream. A Devilish Monarch, truly befitting your Dao." Yan Zaizen sighed. Nearly a million people died instantly and the world was filled with horrid screams, and this number continued to rise.

Everyone soon stopped their assaults as manifestations failed. This woman had to put in an intense effort to infect others so quietly. They literally let a wolf into their den. Their ignorance could've led to their demise.

It wasn't just Yan Zaizen who realized what was happening, the Ruin Emperor and old man also knew what had happened and their expressions were dark. However, they didn't have shock as they saw Asenath's corpse. Instead, they felt helplessness.

Their helper had killed their leader…

"Eeeeeeegghhhhhh!!!" A feminine squeal more powerful than all the others resounded. This voice seemed confused and ignorant of her situation.

"Nooooooooooo!!" A voice filled with unwillingness exploded with unresolved hatred and desires.

The Oneuli Empire's Emperor and Freya had also hellishly screamed!!

Their life, soul, and dao erupted and vanished...
