Hundreds of years later…
At the edge of the dark void domain, the overlords who were once struggling now have the time to talk leisurely.
"Those absolutes are useful~," Elvian muttered, squinting his eyes, finally able to rest.
"I didn't expect their strength to increase this much," Ascelon nodded in admiration.
They thought the absolutes could barely fight a primal dark beast.
Who knew, even after facing over a dozen primal dark beasts simultaneously, they still had no problems?
Turning the scattering array to its highest intensity, they just needed to guide and push the tier 12 dark beasts to be recycled.
Consuming a bit of energy, the tier 12 dark beasts would be separated into a few smaller dark beasts.
Without needing to work so hard and exert effort, they became a little more free.
"Don't be too complacent, or you might jinx it," Nyx warned.
"What more could happen?-"
Suddenly, while Elvian was talking, the Aeon Plane barrier trembled.
"What happened? That monster is going wild again!" Frir frowned.
The monster he was talking about was the tier 13 dark beast lurking over the Aeon Plane.
Although it didn't have a will of its own, at such a high realm, the tier 13 dark beast was no worse than them in terms of intelligence.
Fully capable of thinking, its usual strategy was to wait, breed, and accumulate more dark beasts, boosting its power until it could cause a crack in the Aeon Plane barrier.
This was also how they calculated the arrival of the dark disaster.
When the tier 13 dark beast accumulated enough troops and power, the dark disaster would begin.
Ramming into the Aeon Plane without enough strength, although damaging, it was double-sided.
While causing a crack to the Aeon Plane, it would also damage its essence, weakening its strength.
"We don't have time to worry about that," Ascelon said solemnly, looking at another wave of tier 12 dark beasts.
This time, without Lazo to help, they needed to be more serious.
Fortunately, the scattering array was turned to its highest intensity.
"The only worry now is those individuals in the back…" Sira muttered in concern.
"Don't worry, just deal with this wave, then go back for reinforcements," Ascelon said.
"I hope they can hold until then…"
In the stronghold, Maximus, Malgron, and Zar were having a drink, talking about the situation of the dark beast wave.
"If this continues, the dark beast wave will be over in just a few hundred years," Malgron deduced.
Although there were more and more primal dark beasts, the dark beast wave was becoming less concentrated.
"Hey, I still haven't fought a primal dark beast…" Zar sighed.
With the absolutes monopolizing the primal dark beasts, Zar didn't have the chance to show off his power.
"We should have a chance soon," Maximus comforted.
He also wanted to kill a primal dark beast.
To end this round in advance, they had to kill at least one primal dark beast.
Although the absolutes had already killed hundreds of them, it didn't count.
"We may not be able to fight one," Malgron said, also not optimistic.
"Just wait and see…" Maximus smiled mysteriously.
This was the path guided by his Plane-level ability.
Since he wished to kill a primal dark beast to end this round, then it should happen.
There weren't enough primal dark beasts?
The absolutes were preventing them from fighting and killing one?
The dark beast wave was de-escalating?
What a joke. If his Plane-level ability were that easy to crack, it wouldn't be called a bug.
Soon, as if confirming Maximus's words, multiple great auras descended on the Aeon Plane.
"It's raining primal dark beasts!"
Feeling primal dark beast after another spawning in the dark void domain without stop, instead of despairing, Zar and Malgron looked at each other with excitement.
Suddenly, before Maximus could brag, three primal dark beasts descended, surrounding the stronghold.
"It seems we have company…" Maximus smiled wryly.
It seemed his Plane-level ability was over the top.
"Good! We can have one each!" Zar muttered excitedly.
Initially, he was debating whether to let Maximus and Malgron share his spotlight.
It seemed it was no longer needed.
"Hahaha, just don't die on me; we still have a fight to resolve," Malgron laughed, patting Zar.
Through these hundreds of years, the two fighting maniacs had become best friends.
With one having ultimate power and the other having ultimate fighting skills, the two were evenly matched.
Besides Malgron being higher than one realm, the two had everything in common.
"Come on, if you can't take it, just call out," Maximus said helplessly, controlling the orbital plane blaster, ready to fire at any time.
"You wish! I'll kill this primal dark beast before you can even react!" Zar said, charging toward one of the primal dark beasts.
"It's a race then!" Malgron laughed, charging out of the stronghold.
"These two…" Shaking his head, Maximus notified his family to stay put and clean up the surrounding dark beast mobs.
Looking at the remaining primal dark beast, Maximus felt his fighting intent boil.
"I wonder how strong it is…"
Meanwhile, noticing multiple primal dark beasts descend, the absolutes became solemn.
Unlike Marcus, Reed, and other top absolutes who could take on a primal dark beast alone, they needed to form a group to defeat one.
With a group of ten absolutes, they could basically kill a primal dark beast without effort.
However, looking at multiple primal dark beasts charging toward them, their expressions couldn't help but turn gloomy.
"Looks like we need to sweat flesh and blood…"
On the other side, Marcus, surrounded by five primal dark beasts, licked his lips.
"The final burst? Interesting!"
Looking at five primal dark beasts, instead of fear, Marcus felt unprecedented excitement.
"Let the feast begin!"
On the other hand, Reed, the second-strongest absolute, was also surrounded by three primal dark beasts.
Feeling multiple primal dark beasts descending into the dark void domain, instead of worrying about himself, he worried more about Maximus.
"I hope that brat stays in the stronghold…"
