Alexander, Dikru, Limut, and others reeled in shock upon learning Aurek had reached the ninth-level supreme sage rank in just one year, surpassing all prodigies. The Sword-Sea Emperor unleashed the Devouring Cursed Sword Array, sending three hundred thirty-three Cursed Swords infused with malice and Fate River power toward Aurek, who countered fiercely with his golden dragon-claw and the Calamity Dimension skill, shattering billions of divine swords. As Crusader Goddess Venus struck the array with the Divine Oracle Sword, splitting the Sword Sea Universe in two and destroying half of it, the terrified Sword-Sea Emperor fled through the pierced cosmos, abandoning the battle and Origin Sword Sea's legacy.

"Planning to flee?"

Chaos stretched out as the Dragon Emperor's enormous, endless dragon form swiftly enveloped half of the cosmos.

Twisting his neck, his draconic gaze fixed firmly on the Sword-Sea Emperor.

Once again, the Cataclysm Dimension burst forth!

Pitch-black, supreme thunder ripped apart the Fate River, charging straight at the Sword-Sea Emperor!

Activating the Devouring Cursed Sword Array, the Sword-Sea Emperor made nine hundred and ninety-nine Cursed Swords chime together, hacking desperately at the Fate River in retaliation.

Right then, Aurek sprang into action.

In a flash, he crossed the cosmic divide and appeared just beyond the Devouring Cursed Sword Array!

The Sword-Sea Emperor had barely started directing the 333 primary assault Cursed Swords toward Aurek.

But Aurek boldly entered the Cursed Sword Array!

The savage intensity of the sword setup immediately surrounded him.

A barrier of unseen light, formed via Dimensional Vision, flared up across a million-mile area surrounding Aurek!

Cursed Swords crashed into the light barrier, producing brilliant, eye-searing bursts!

The Sword-Sea Emperor's eyes narrowed in shock.

Channeling the Fate River, he molded it into a ray of supreme sword beam aimed at Aurek.

At the same time, the 333 Cursed Swords protecting the Fate River rushed forward to skewer him!

Boom—!

The Sword-Sea Emperor's sword hit the unseen barrier!

It was like smashing into a cosmic divide. The unseen barrier quaked fiercely, rattling the whole Sword Universe along with it!

Shock overwhelmed the Sword-Sea Emperor.

As a Quasi-Eternal Sage Rank, even though he'd reached it recently, he was still a pioneer!

But his maximum effort attack couldn't break through this light barrier?!

Aurek flicked his sleeve.

The Art of Creation detonated inside the Devouring Cursed Sword Array!

Cursed Swords got shoved away one after another by force, and the vicious recoil made the Sword-Sea Emperor cough up blood, his energy sharply declining!

Then, the Cataclysm Dimension called by the Dragon Emperor slammed down at the perfect moment!

"Damn it! How is this possible?!"

"This level of battle strength can straightforwardly match a Quasi-Eternal Sage Rank. He isn't even at Ninth-Level Supreme Sage Rank!"

The Sword-Sea Emperor's thoughts whirled, assessing wildly.

He finally arrived at a stunning realization:

Be it the Dragon Emperor or Aurek, their might was sufficient to challenge a Quasi-Eternal Sage Rank!

If these two joined forces this way, he stood no chance to win!

He decided instantly.

Abruptly, six hundred and sixty-six Cursed Swords stabbed through the space divide, aiming for Aurek!

Meanwhile, he commanded the leftover 333 protective Cursed Swords, shattering the Fate River's edge, and withdrew the Devouring Cursed Sword Array into its inner realms!

The Dragon Emperor sensed his plan.

With one blast of dragon flames, he demolished half of the Sword-Sea Emperor’s Quasi-Eternal Sage Rank form!

"Aurek, just you wait. I will never forgive you!"

Roaring furiously, the Sword-Sea Emperor abandoned six hundred and sixty-six Cursed Swords as the cost, hauling his broken body beyond the Fate River boundary and fleeing the Sword Universe.

Those six hundred and sixty-six unattended Cursed Swords were all halted by Aurek’s unseen barrier.

Lifting his hand, Aurek pinned them down, choosing not to chase.

Quasi-Eternal Sage Rank power went far beyond normal understanding. Even at this point, utterly destroying the foe remained a tough task.

After all, attaining that level allowed one to manipulate fate like a tool, dwelling alongside the Fate River.

The Dragon Emperor held back from chasing too, turning his stare toward Alexander and the remaining Sage Ranks of the Origin Sword Sea.

Those Supreme Sage Ranks had already faced death repeatedly at the hands of billions of Quasi-Empyrean Sanctum warriors.

Helped by Suggwoth and his allies, they fell one after the other, totally wiped from the Fate River.

Ultimately, among the thirty-eight Supreme Sage Ranks, only Alexander barely got away.

More than a hundred billion Divine Court armies overran the Sword Universe.

The Origin Sword Sea lay in total ruins. Temples, spires, and wonders that endured for endless ages were wiped out in the raging destruction.

Powerful bloodline forces crumbled to nothing in that overwhelming flood.

...

"Pfft—!"

Fleeing to the universe's brink, the Sword-Sea Emperor spewed a gush of blood into the emptiness.

Wherever his blood landed, a world emerged. Innumerable lives burst into existence right away, sustained by that blood.

He labored to mend his ruined body, looking back at the Sword Universe with deep reluctance.

Aurek had stood right there, holding that earth-shaking mystery.

The mystery letting him rise from fresh Supreme Sage Rank to Ninth-Level Supreme Sage Rank in just one year, and to lead almost a hundred billion Quasi-Empyrean Sanctum soldiers.

It probably connected to the Dark Abyss.

The path to Eternity felt so close.

But he couldn't beat him. How could that sit well?

"I can’t kill him..."

"But he carries this secret. Once it spreads, countless beings will be tempted!"

"This isn’t over!"

"I still have a chance!"

A spark of vicious resolve gleamed in the Sword-Sea Emperor's gaze.

One unbeatable Quasi-Eternal Sage Rank—maybe two, ten, or more?

By exposing all about Aurek, he could rally nearby Quasi-Eternal Sage Ranks to take him out!

Then, he'd get his shot at grabbing the secret.

Regarding the Dark Abyss... that vague, shadowy entity.

If it brought disaster or a way to eternal rise, nobody could tell.

But Aurek’s secret was real, clear, and attainable!

...

Origin Sword Sea – Temple.

Aurek arrived at this spot.

It served as the turbulent heart of the Sword Universe, the origin of every bit of its strength.

The Sword-Sea Emperor had forged the Origin Sword Sea personally.

He shared the time with the Primordial Ancients, a titan of this stellar domain.

Once, fate had blessed the Sword-Sea Emperor.

But his time's limits kept him confined to the Sword Universe.

His rise trailed those ancient Quasi-Eternal Sage Ranks, missing the buildup of endless eras.

To make up for it, he devoted tens of millions of years to carefully building the Devouring Cursed Sword Array.

The Cursed Swords' brutality was horrifying.

Every sword had massacred endless lives over tens of thousands of worlds.

Even in a minor realm like the Endless Continent, one blow had erased billions.

This gathered Karma of Slaughter proved too much, even for the Sword-Sea Emperor.

Plus, the Cursed Sword Array stayed unfinished, so he couldn't master its full might.

If not, the sword setup might have endangered even those ancient Quasi-Eternal Sage Ranks.

The real terror of the Cursed Swords lay not in their slicing force but in the endless grudge they bore.

Every attack flooded the foe with the fury of countless souls.

Such grudge could taint fortune, taint destiny, and bring down even the mightiest in the end.

The Origin Sword Sea's base was incredibly strong.

All kinds of cosmic treasures gathered here—anything imaginable.

Now, the Origin Sword Sea had been totally destroyed, all seized as loot by the Crossbridge Divine Court, Sword Universe included!

Aurek picked this universe to claim first, not the Luminous Land of Nasei, for good reasons.

Firstly, it let him gauge the power of factions near the Chaos Singularity using the Origin Sword Sea.

Secondly, he aimed to feel firsthand the strength of a Quasi-Eternal Sage Rank.

Thirdly, controlling a treasure-filled universe offered a perfect base.

With thirty-six Supreme Sage Ranks killed and David fully removed, their core destinies taken, Aurek could aid his followers in quick rank advances.

This fight was undoubtedly a massive gain.
