Chapter 1569: Universe Realm
Boom!
Gautikh's attack was surprisingly restructured and sent back at him, causing a large gash to form on his stomach. "Gah!"
He immediately absorbed some spatial storm from nearby, intending to heal the gash, when he stared in disbelief, realizing that he wasn't able to heal it anymore.
Only then did he understand that it was his own power that was being used on him. And since its nature was changed to the laws of the Mong Realm, the attack couldn't be nullified.
After all, on a direct comparison, Mon-Tu-Casha was stronger than him. So, she was overwhelming him easily.
When Mon-Tu-Casha and Krune combined, they were even able to take on the first-generation God King. So, it was impossible for a Younger Generation Primordial Beast to face her head-on.
B-Boom!
Suddenly, a needle of lightning pierced through Gautikh's head, poking a hole from the head to the tail as lightning arcs flickered all over his body.
And immediately after...
"Aieeeee!" Gautikh screamed in pain as millions of maggots crawled all across his body, gobbling it up.
Even when he killed as many as possible, after a minor pause, their population spiked as they spread around more on his body.
"Insane!" Feura screamed, only now realizing that she had also been affected, noticing maggots appear all over her body, wherever Krune's lightning had hit her before. And they were especially dense in her beak where the lightning needle had pierced through.
Kieee!
She unleashed a torrent of fire, vaporizing all the maggots in her beak. Her entire body then turned into literal flames, killing the other maggots as well.
Unfortunately, thousands of lightning needles slammed into her when suddenly, they transformed, turning into rippling spheres of ice that absorbed her fire and used it to fuel the ice.
Mon-Tu-Casha and Krune had long since learned to align their powers and coordinate. Moreover, Krune gave her access to his Law World, allowing Mon-Tu-Casha to target attack from there itself.
As for him, he used his Hunger Law to steal part of her power. With that, both were able to unleash attacks through the powers of each other, capable of executing a variety of attacks.
Boom!
Zeit unleashed a beam, barely saving Feura as he panted, staring at Krune in shock. "You're a great schemer, Zule."
"Too bad, there seems to be a greater schemer." He sighed.
...
The Qilin was chasing after the fleeing Mong and Garg Realm at her topmost speed when suddenly, Turmul appeared behind her, latching onto her as his figure suddenly seeped into her body.
"Kyak!" Jagira screamed in shock, retaliating when her powers failed to stop her opponent, who was many times stronger.
She was a Younger Generation, while Turmul had surpassed an Adult and had become part of the Older Generation. There was too wide a power gap between the two as within a matter of minutes, Jagira was eaten up from within.
Burp!
Turmul patted his belly, using Jagira's power to consolidate his growing power, stabilizing it better. 'I must devour the corpses of the rest of the Primordial Beasts to fully stabilize myself.'
Thinking of the Black Turtle that too was operating alone, Turmul licked his lips, vanishing in response.
...
"We surrender." Zeit reverted to his human form, raising his hands in defeat as Feura, Gautikh, and the newly arrived Arakel the Azure Dragon stared at him in shock.
"Things have changed," Zeit said in all seriousness, watching two blobs—white and purple respectively—arrive at a halt before him, reverting into Krune and Mon-Tu-Casha.
"What... do you mean?" Krune wiped his tears, not even having the time to mourn the deaths of ones close to him, asking while remaining alert.
"Losing this war isn't of a grave consequence to us," Zeit said. "At most, the Kun Peng Chief would change to Zule."
"However, something worse has happened now." He said solemnly, staring at Krune and Mon-Tu-Casha as he told them, "It seems the two of you are already aware of the issue."
"Turmul, right?" Krune nodded, gritting his teeth.
"So, we'll propose something," Zeit said, extending his hand towards Krune. "I'll offer up my body to the Kun Realm. Use me to strengthen the foundation of your realm better and kill Turmul."
"He's already become an Older Generation Tiangou. He'll come and kill us next to stabilize his powers," Zeit said, sighing in the end. "None of us have the strength to go against him. So, instead of becoming his fuel, we're better off helping you instead."
He stared at the two individuals that were stronger than him, reeling in his shock at the heights thought impossible for a God to ever reach. "If it's the two of you, then it's possible to face him."
"If that's the case, become the fuel of our Mong Realm. We've already devoured Tallo, not to mention our innately high foundation. My Mong Realm has the greatest foundation of all," Mon-Tu-Casha said.
"No." Zeit shook his head. "Only the Kun Realm can devour all of us. I've looked up to Zule from young and I can understand his plans. He's done something to the Kun Realm that would allow it..."
"To become the Universal Realm that was thought impossible."
"Universal Realm?" Krune's eyes widened in shock.
"Yes, just one realm in the Greater Universe where every life apart from the Primordial Beasts exists," Zeit said. "Remember that the Kun Realm was killed by slaughtering Zule's entire clan. Among them, his clan head was part of the Older Generation, second only to the Chief. So, that's the foundation innately present in the Kun Realm."
"This is why it's able to grow and nurture so many races."
"I see... so everything was for this." Krune sighed, lifting his head to ask Zeit calmly, "So, what will happen to the rest of the Greater Realms if we go with this?"
"They'll be integrated into the Kun Realm seamlessly," Zeit said. "I have the ability to do it since I've followed Zule for some time in the past when his clan was laying down the foundation for the creation of the Kun Realm."
"And," Zeit looked at Mon-Tu-Casha. "With that, you'll be able to access all the Law Worlds."
"At least, I hope you become strong enough to face Turmul after this." Zeit bowed in response. "If left unchecked, his avarice would destroy the foundations of the Greater Universe itself. There's a reason the control over the Greater Universe must be split into eight."
"However, he might tumble everything."
