Chapter 1886 Eldaernth

Higher Existences were known as Half-Step Transcendents for a reason. Their existences were technically too powerful to appear on the Mortal Plane, and this was especially the case for Eldaernth.

Due to their overwhelming power, the laws of physics became nothing but child's play before them. The most powerful of them could construct and deconstruct laws as they saw fit. Making down up, and up down, destroying and building up, making night day, and day night all of these things were possible.

All sorts of impossible things happened when one was capable of breaking the void.

Of course, these powers would disappear after they transcended. Or, rather, the Immortal Plane's laws were too st.u.r.dy for them to manipulate at will. But, here on the Mortal Plane they were basically G.o.ds!

"As I said before, I am not a fan of the havoc the Devil Quadrants have run in my territory."

"Did you not destroy my projection as punishment?" Eldaernth said plainly.

"Equating the life of a projection to the life of millions of innocents. A true Higher Existence indeed." Dyon said with a sarcastic sneer.

"That was no normal projection. It was formed of one of my Devil Spirits. It will be another century or so before I am once again capable of using the Devil Core it was formed from."

Demonic Spirit was one of the techniques of Eldaernth's [Devil Core] technique. Projections usually had less than a single percent of the strength of a Higher Existence, but Eldaernth's had almost 2%. This didn't sound like a big deal, but he could form one of these for every Devil Core he had. Each one was more than enough to deal with a normal Higher Existence.

Luckily, Jade was no normal Higher Existence despite only just have broken through.

[Author's Note: For those who have maybe forgotten, during The Cathedral arc, Jade killed Eldaernth's projection and stopped him from interfering]

This was the truth. Eldaernth agreed to this meeting not only because of the Devil Vein, but because of Jade. He had a feeling that if she continued to grow, she wouldn't be much less powerful than himself in the future, if at all.

Still, he wasn't too worried about her. After all, he had been in the Higher Existence Realm for over two million years. That wasn't an easily bridged gap.

What he was apprehensive about was the fact this unknown Sacharro Clan might actually be hiding other Higher Existences

Unfortunately, before he could even figure out what kind of enemy he was dealing with and decide whether or not to just directly declare war regardless of the consequences, he suddenly learned that he wasn't meeting with a Higher Existence, but rather a little boy.

He could have never guessed that this boy would give him the worst surprise of his life.

"What is a hundred years to you?" Dyon responded, completely unmoved.

If it was up to him, Eldaernth would pay for his actions in blood.

Why was it that Mia and Bella were so beloved? It was precisely because of the integral part they played in the destruction of Soul Market.

Soul Market had caused so much pain and suffering in Soul Universe. Yet, this Soul Market would have never existed had it not been for this Higher Existence Ravana.

However, no matter how enraged Dyon was, his heart was cooled beyond belief. He wasn't anywhere near as powerful as Eldaernth right now, so even if he wanted to take action He couldn't.

With his current battle prowess, Dyon could battle 9th Order 10th stage dao formation realm experts. But, not only was Eldaernth a Higher Existence, he was of the 15th Order! The difference was monumental.

Of course, this so-called 15th Order didn't exist for Higher Existences. They ranked themselves with a completely different system. But, this was more than enough to ill.u.s.trate just how powerful Eldaernth was.

"What do you want, exactly." Eldaernth asked without much emotion.

"Even your entire wealth wouldn't be enough to repay the lives of those individuals. However, if I insist on seeking revenge for them now, I will only put the lives of more individuals in danger. Instead, you will pay ten percent of the revenue of your Devil Quadrants until the matters of the Ancient Battlefield conclude."

"The Sacharro Clan isn't very good at negotiating, are they?"

"Aren't we? Do you believe that I don't understand the value of a Devil Vein?"

Dyon aura suddenly s.h.i.+fted, becoming several times darker in an instant. His golden eyes and hair blackened, and he began to waft a fog even darker than the depths of s.p.a.ce around them.

"Hoho" Eldaernth chuckled lightly.

"If you don't agree to this base conditions, I'll refuse to even bring the use of the Devil Vein into play."

Dyon's meaning was clear. This ten percent payment wasn't in exchange for using the Devil Vein, it was purely as recompense for the lives lost!

This ten percent, Dyon would not only use to compensate the families that had suffered, but he would better the way of life of his Mortal Alliance to an even greater extent than he already had. The wealth of even the 5th ranked outer quadrant was beyond imagining, let alone the 4th ranked!

"Let's say I agree, what would your next conditions be, then?" Eldaernth asked.

"An alliance with your Devil Quadrants once more until the matters of the Ancient Battlefield come to an end.

"I'm sure you know this already, but your Devil Quadrants have many enemies. The reason they've hidden their fangs is because of your strength, but what use will that strength be during the first phase?

"You obviously cannot enter the battlefield, but your daughter, your two sons, and the younger generation of your subordinates will all enter. If I'm correct, they will instantly become the target of the other four outer powers."

"And you will protect them? With what exactly?"

Dyon couldn't help but laugh at Eldaernth's tone.

"I know I've spoken very rudely and haven't come off as a member of the younger generation But I am not even 150 years old yet. Of course it will be me who protects them."

Higher Existence Ravana's pupils constricted.
