Heavenly Opposers - Chapter 235: Chapter 234: Guess Its Swords Then....?
‘I need to meet with 5 of them before I make my next move.’
Azrail in his heart already has an idea of which side he wants to join, but before that, he needs to drive the market price in. DeathMark needs to put in and show his place and talent to make it such that Azrail will receive better offers when he wants to join any faction.
‘Gotta be careful on how I move this.’
None of them are idiots or useless ones. Once Azrail joins, he needs to lay low till he gets the full picture. Be it the lowest sect or even this humongous organization in front of Azrail, all of them will have at least one small weak leg for him to break, which will create the domino effect that Azrail wants to, he would be more in sight then.
Thus having made his plan, Azrail quickly sent his reply back to the 5 of them he chose. The reply that Azrail gave wasn’t all that conventional, but in this case, Azrail has the right to put forth this arrogance. A small deal is put forth by Azrail and knowing the ego of the ones who wrote these messages and the ones who receive upon them, Azrail knows that he will be in for a good show.
‘Guess that’s dealt with.’
Thinking of that, Azrail sat cross-legged on his bed, deep breaths filling his lungs as he felt the shifting Qi all around him, the World Spirit energy in him tumbling out in his World Spirit core, the energy shifting and phasing all around, while the soul energy in his body kept its smooth phase, keeping a certain balance in between all.
Deep within his mind, Azrail’s mental realm stayed firm, his increase in talent helping him achieve more levels of control over his mind and the minds of the rest. Right now, Azrail is making steady growth in his World Spirit powers and trying to learn more about the mental realm masters, him cultivating the first one and learning more about the latter.
‘I need to maintain a steady flow.’
Azrail has too much to grow about him. Leaving aside his own unique paths for cultivation, there is his bloodline to deal with, the blessings of Death, and his powers that equate towards Death, cause from what he was betrothed on, Azrail’s bloodline has been fully blown away to become something much more sinister and dangerous.
Then there is Azrail’s connection to ‘that’ domain, the one left to him by Torez, the powerful domain of swords forged from realms itself, swords with their own minds, powers, and strength to fight against all. They are, in a sense, a living breathing army completely being suspended in a death-like state within that domain. Azrail could feel his connection to it, but he still couldn’t enter it.
Trying to grasp any of the swords there, for now, feels like death because even though Azrail is now the owner of that domain bequeathed by Torez, it doesn’t mean that all the swords there are happy with him. All of them loved and adored Torez, and with the respect and duty given to them, they would listen to Azrail when the time came, but going out of that would need serious time from Azrail.
He would need for them to recognize him, to earn their true loyalty, cause swords like those with such immense might to cut literally anything is something even the Gods would fight for, not to mention that Azrail has thousands of such swords at his command, swords capable of cutting through even the strongest hearts of the most powerful organizations.
There is another fact that, with his powers getting stronger, Azrail’s inner world is being connected to the domain, which means their connection is getting better and better. That also means that the domain of the last and the most powerful Centuriarchs is getting linked to him on a soul-like layer, a connection that is similar to that he has with Raven and Ravenna.
That also means that as the connection keeps happening, it’s also going forth to change Azrail’s body in several ways that aren’t seen before.
‘Looking at these, those sword-worshiping idiots would die with envy.’
Azrail mused as he started to understand the changes happening throughout his body. It would seem that the domain itself is making changes to his body, giving him several other natural changes and talents that would surely drive any sword-using cultivator green with envy, and the things being such.
