Lord Shadow

Azief casually waves the sword in his hand.

The seas of blood had dried up and the sixth steps is now barren.

But as Azief waves that sword, the sword on his hand scattered like flower petal, unleashing the power and killing intent that used to belong to that seas of blood.

The sword move is very beautiful, like blossom flowers falling into the ground as Fall come nears. But that simple wave created a powerful and terrifying aura

‘It is beautiful’ Azief thought.

Like the fleetingness of life, for a brief moment, there is that feeling when he waved that casual sword move

He had seen his Law Body performing this move before in his memory. But seeing it and doing it is two different things.

Azief felt that the energy of his Ancient Demonic energy was cut in halve the moment he casually waves that sword.

Yet, the faith in his sword strike could not be broken.

He believes it is powerful and bolstered by that faith, the Ancient Demonic energy supply it to that faith to make sure that faith is not broken

This strike would sunder the Heavens! Azief thought and the moment he thought that he remembered his life as Divinity of Fire.

That is why he unleash that strike.

As he unleased that strike, that memory of another life, slowly distorted, like someone throws a stone into a calm lake.

The water is no longer still, as the ripples spread in every direction and then Azief slowly forgotten his life as Divinity of Fire Azul.

He remembers that he used to be the Divinity of Fire in Azul life, but for the details he didn’t remembers it and he smiles.

Slowly he is walking out from Azul shadows.

Flowers petals fills the stars.

The flower petal is in golden white color but at the same time swirling around these flower petals is a devious killing intent.

And this time because it is him wielding it, there is a sharper sword will, sword intent and sword light all around it, sharpening that casual sword strike.

That sword strikes then cut upon a star. It passes the stars and then cuts a barren planet and it passes that planet and cut upon five of its moon.

Then all of those stars, asteroids belts and planets just disappeared. Like a blip in darkness that suddenly disappeared, they just cease to exist

There is no loud explosion or fancy sword move. One lash was the only thing it needed. Azief smiles as he is now almost forgetting everything in the trials of Azul.

There is only silence and nothingness as the dark space felt like it would suck you in. Azief wonder about many things as he saw that emptiness of space.

Others might be suffocated if they were in his position right now, gazing at the indeterminate darkness but not to him It is calming to see all he stars and all he planets in the distance.

Azief smiles and then he shakes his head.

‘I will practice this Law more to familiarize myself’ he then floated to the seventh steps and landed his feet on the seventh step

The sixth step crumbles and another thread appears to latched itself onto him.

The seventh steps are none other than the Aether Law Body.

Azief steps into the seventh steps as his energy inside his body calmed down and solidified itself. Now, Azief is slowly approaching the peak of Divine Comprehension level.

Nine Laws and he would be Divine Comprehension leveler in the Heavenly Realm. He is also curios what lies after the Nine Laws. What realm is that?

The energy around him has already stabilize itself as Azief look at that law Body standing in the center of this step.

Like before, this step was turned into another realm that is different than the realm of demonic energy

Aether energy filled the steps. Azief look at the rings in his finger and smiles bitterly. He knew that he got this energy from one of his ring.

If not for the ring, things wound been this easy for him to acquire so many different Laws

The energy that is present in this steps is the energy that flow through nearly all existence.

That is how overbearing this energy really is.

Before, all flow of energy of the Supreme Dimension was diverted in the Law Body.

But now that the Law Body is complete, it is no longer absorbing any energy.

The Law Body of Aether just stand there, waiting. There is no restriction or mist of red obscuring the Law Body from his sight like last time.

The pressure of the Law Body also seems to be contained inside the Law Body.

Before the pressure of the Law Body was so powerful that is broke the multiversal points of the dimension around the Supreme Dimension

There is a qualitative change in the energy of the Law Body of Aether this time. But one thing that did not change.

Even though it could not be seen, the life energies around the Law Body and the entire seventh steps could be felt deep down.

If anyone were to fall down on the seventh steps no matter how terrible their injury is, they would be rejuvenated because of the abundance of Life Energy around the steps.

Life energies streamed in and shrouded, complement and strengthen the Law Body of the Aether

Azief did not took much time this time. Guided by the calling, he appears in front of the titanic figure of his law Body and then he walks through the Law Body.

The moment he walks through; the figures disappears like it never existed

This time the absorption of the Law Body is even faster than before.

Azief close his eyes as his mind is being bestowed with knowledge that the Law Body had comprehended for him.

It felt like he is studying for thousands of years, like he was the one siting cross legged in that step and the life he had lived in the Sealed World was nothing but a long dream

But as he opens his eyes, understanding everything about Aether energy, only a second had passed since the time he closes his eyes and opens it back.

The process is very calm unlike the process before. The more Azief understand about laws, the easier it was the process and the less pressure he felt

Instead his body is now emanating more pressure than the Law Body. He is confident of that fact now

Azief eyes now shows a different shade now and it is full of wisdom like an entire Universe is inside his eyes.

The color of his eyes is no longer red but blue. His entire body right now is giving of powerful emanations of life force.

And that is not all that have changed since he absorbed the Aether Law Body. Now his entire body is glowing in blue colors and that glows spread out to all corners of this Sealed Universe.

It was like this blue force is trying to dye the entire Supremacy Dimension to its colors.

Azief knows he himself could feel the excitement in his heart. He is slowly walking closer to Perfection. Before when he was in these steps, he had everything taken from him.

His Disk, His Seeds, His Orbs all expect his bodily abilities. Each step causes him to be wrecked with pain beyond human imagination.

He could not even describe it or even express how it feels.

That is how painful it was. The stronger his body, the stronger the pain. Even if there is one slight thought of giving up, Azief did not stop walking forward.

His determination and will is the only thing that keep him going during that trials of pain. Yet, he still able to walk until the end, casting off all of his Disk leaving only his body, empty of almost all of his energies.

If not for the fact that he has powerful bodies, then he would probably would not be so confident in that world.

Though, he himself is not that confident of his assumption. He thought about it a lot when he was in that world

Before, he would not mind bowing his head down. But after being so long accustomed to being the overlord, he would find it hard to bow down his head again

Pride marked each of his step and that pride is not something that is inherent. It is something he cultivated after becoming stronger.

Instead of calling it his pride, it is confidence. And that confidence seeps into his very bones that he found it hard to act like he is a subservient person.

He had try to reconcile these feeling in that world and he never got the answer.

He was never an emotional person when it concerns his life. He would do whatever he needs to survive. That is how he had managed to survive all those tribulations in the past.

But as he grows stronger, he become stubborn.

He did not have to risk anything when he walks the steps. He did not have to risk fighting the Heavens to confirm some of the doubts he had about the energy of the world

Yet, he did all that. The closer he come to his Grand Path, the more he believes that he had to keep walking forward, even if that path leads to death.

He now understands a bit about the thoughts of those Supreme Beings that did not mind to die or even walking to their own death if they could see their Grand Path realizes.
