Chapter 991 Gauntlets, Armor, And Castle
"Embrace Unity. Resistance is Futile. One With The Beyonder."
After his journey through the Emptiness, fighting and defeating several Fourth Realm life forms, Zatiel had begun to wonder whether or not the army of the Beyonder would be a real threat to the Daybreak Universe. That idea became much stronger after Myriad\'s evolution and attaining a weapon that could allow him to unleash the full might of his Peak Middle Stage cultivation.
However, it only took one glance at that vortex to understand that the Beyonder\'s army was a threat like nothing else he had seen before.
A solemn expression appeared on Zatiel\'s face as he focused on the immense vortex of darkness that carried the full might of the Beyoder\'s army. It was too far away to analyze its power, but it was clear several Fourth Realm life forms were inside it.
The Samsara Thearch could not perceive the Beyonder\'s Knights\' power inside the vortex of darkness, but he would not be surprised to learn there was one with the power of Omnipotence.
Silver flames appeared in Zatiel\'s eyes as he brought peace to his mind and soul since there was still a lot of work to do and little time left.
He waved his hand, triggering the sun\'s heat and using it to melt the obsidian starfish inside his lungs. Unlike the other treasures,
Journaloth was alive, with his soul and body sealed, unable to resist in any way.
Since the obsidian starfish had wanted to kill him, Zatiel had no reservations about making this one suffer. There were no emotions in his eyes as the sun\'s heat managed to liquefy the creature\'s body and soul, leaking a dark blue plasma inside him.
Once that was over, the Samsara Thearch focused on a Sacred Mountain that was glowing as constant pulses of energy emerged from its peak.
The amount of energy the mountain unleashed would spread across several Sectors, flooding the sky with origin power, but that was far from all.
Nine minutes after the pulse of origin power emerged, all that energy would return to the Sacred Mountain, reaching its base. After that, it would travel back to the peak, growing mightier in the process, before a new pulse emerged.
Its name was the Endlessness Sacred Mountain, and in it was a cycle of constant energy growth, something that would work perfectly with a weapon made of obsidian starfish\'s body and soul.
The Endlessness Sacred Mountain trembled for a second as it received the command of the Samsara Thearch, and its eternal cycle of energy growth stopped for a second as it released a cannon of soul force and golden origin power into the Sun and Moon Palace.
All that power reached directly into the Samsara Thearch\'s body, which sent it into the dark blue plasma inside his lungs. The amount of energy that the Endlessness Sacred Mountain released was terrific, and it took him a long time to send every single ounce into the plasma.
However, once the dark blue plasma absorbed all that energy, two golden gauntlets with strange runes covering every inch of it remained inside the Samsara Thearch\'s lungs.
The runes glowed with multicolored light, and no matter how much energy one sent into them, it would increase it exponentially, augmenting the power of every spell forwarded through them.
Immediately after forging the weapon, Zatiel activated the cold power of the Daybreak Universe\'s moon to give it stability. Only after ensuring their resilience did he allow the gauntlets to leave his lungs.
Zatiel focused on the gauntlets and smiled, knowing that Issac, the Sacred King of Endlessness, would know how to deploy all their power.
"Cosmic-Fusion Gauntlets."
He sent the Cosmic-Fusion Gauntlets into his Inner Dimension before taking the new treasure.
Unlike the obsidian starfish, the following treasure was a corpse that lacked a soul. Zatiel sent the Winged Whale\'s carcass into his lungs and unleashed the Daybreak Universe\'s sun heat, allowing him to melt it.
It was harder to melt the Winged Whale\'s carcass than the obsidian starfish, not because the first one had higher durability but due to its impressive adaptability.
The Winged Whale\'s atomic structure began to change once it felt the sun\'s heat, increasing its fire resistance to a shocking degree.
Zatiel was pleasantly surprised to see that the Winged Whale\'s body possessed such extraordinary abilities even without its soul.
Although the Winged Whale\'s corpse managed to increase its fire resistance, the heat of the Daybreak Universe\'s sun was a Fourth Realm Force, so it only delayed the inevitable.
The Samsara Thearch focused on a Sacred Mountain that blended with all the Laws and Concepts around it in a state of absolute harmony and peace.
It was the Harmony Sacred Mountain. The Neo-Demons, Depravitas, and Eldars training in it were some of the most peaceful people in the entire Daybreak Universe, but it would be a great mistake to call them weak.
While the Universal Harmony Inheritance focused on a peaceful mind and soul, its power resided in the ability of the warrior to harness the power of Laws and Concepts alike, transforming them into outlandish destructive energy if needed.
The one that mastered the Universal Harmony Inheritance to its peak was no other than one of the greatest and oldest heroes of the Daybreak Universe, the World Tree.
Zatiel aimed his hand toward the Harmony Sacred Mountain. Yet, unlike the other mountains that only unleashed their own power, this one gathered the strength of over a dozen Sectors before blasting it all toward the Sun and Moon Palace.
The Samsara Thearch\'s eyes widened when he saw that amazing amount of energy and soul force coming at him. He pushed his focus to the limit, ensuring he could take it all.
Not even an iota of that energy was lost as the Samsara Thearch sent all of it toward the dark plasma inside his lungs. Slowly the new weapon was taking form, but this time it was not actually a weapon.
After several hours a colossal suit of armor, intricately carved with symbols representing the countless Laws and Concepts of the universe, appeared inside Zatiel\'s lungs.
The sun\'s power turned off as the Daybreak Universe\'s moon sent its frigid power into the Samsara Thearch\'s body, stabilizing the colossal suit of armor.
It only took a glance for Zatiel to see that anyone using this armor would gain unparalleled defense and superb control over the forces of the world.
Zatiel took the armor out of his lungs and knew it would only reveal its true force once it fused with someone capable of unleashing its full power.
"Worldmelder Armor."
That was the name of the armor En would use during the battle with the Beyonder\'s Knights, and it was hard to say just how much power this one would manage to unleash with it.
A smile of satisfaction appeared on Zatiel\'s face as he sent the armor into his Inner Universe.
The next treasure to appear was a hexagonal crystal glowing with rainbow light. The Universe Will Incarnation obtained this treasure after reaching the core of that illusion labyrinth.
Zatiel stared at the hexagonal crystal, and his eyes grew sharp as he felt the illusion power of the treasure affecting his senses. Of course, it could not cause hallucinations, but the fact it could influence the soul of someone like him was impressive.
Like with the others, the Samsara Thearch sent the treasure into his lung and used the Daybreak Universe\'s sun to melt it.
The hexagonal crystals\' physical defenses were very low, so the sun\'s heat took less than an hour to trasform it into rainbow-colored plasma.
Zatiel focused on a Sacred Mountain that was very different from the others. For a start, the mountain did not really have a physical form and existed as a soul construct.
Soul constructs were unstable and could be considered an illusion realm with a pseudo-physical form. One so massive as a Sacred Mountain existing for dozens of thousands of years and showing no instability at all was incredible.
The key to the resilience of this Sacred Mountain was the inheritance left by the Samsara Thearch. It was the home of the Unbreakable Spirit Inheritance, and its master was the youngest of the Sacred Kings, Codicia.
Zatiel extended his palm, and the Unbreakable Spirit Sacred Mountain trembled before unleashing a cannon of sky-blue origin power into the Sun and Moon Palace.
All that origin power reached the rainbow-colored plasma, and once again, Zatiel saw the creation of something different from a typical weapon.
This one was even more bizarre than a suit of armor since a small castle was forming inside the Samsara Thearch\'s lungs.
