Ten trillion.

That was Xien’s battle power as sensed by Caelum.

As expected of the guardian of the Omni Realm and overseer of twelve universes, his strength was genuinely overwhelming.

"In that case..."

Caelum’s aura suddenly exploded upward.

"Hundredfold Burst Technique."

Boom!

Violent energy swept across Hell.

Volcanoes erupted wildly.

Massive waves surged through the blood lakes.

The ground split apart as endless cracks spread across the landscape.

In an instant, Caelum’s battle power skyrocketed to thirty trillion.

He had not even transformed into his Second Form on top of that.

Otherwise, he was worried he might accidentally kill Xien before realizing it.

The terrifying pressure radiating from him was enough to destroy the entirety of Universe Seven.

Even though Xien already knew how monstrous Caelum’s power was, he still felt a chill run down his spine.

Boom!

Everything happened in a flash.

Xien’s vision darkened.

Then pain exploded throughout his body.

In that brief instant alone, Caelum had struck him more than thirty times.

Xien had not reacted even once.

With a battle power gap this large, calling it a fight was generous.

A difference of even one third was already enough to decide battles instantly.

There was no way Xien could resist.

Immediately, countless streams of light burst from within his body.

...

Omniscience.

A divine ability capable of observing all twelve universes.

Universal Shift.

A movement technique allowing unrestricted travel between universes.

Caelum’s abilities evolved once again.

Compared to the Divine Sight and Instant Transmission possessed by Kais, these abilities existed on a completely different level.

The overwhelming sensation of rapidly increasing strength sent excitement surging through him.

His battle instinct ignited uncontrollably.

The pressure of his aura tore apart everything in its path, carving a gigantic trench straight through Hell itself.

It nearly split the entire realm in half.

Then came another attack.

A punch carrying unimaginable force crossed the entirety of Hell in an instant as Caelum closed in on Xien once more.

Without hesitation, he threw another strike.

The galaxy trembled.

Hell shook violently.

Xien’s expression changed drastically.

Without time to think, he immediately unleashed all his power in an attempt to block the attack.

Boom!

A massive torrent of divine energy surged across Hell’s skies.

But Caelum punched straight through it.

The overwhelming force crushed Xien’s attack completely.

The scattered energy devastated Hell in every direction.

And finally, the unstoppable punch landed.

Boom!

Xien was blasted away by the overwhelming power.

His body streaked across Hell’s skies before he finally managed to stop himself.

Cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

For a moment, he genuinely thought he had survived death by sheer luck.

"That was close..."

Xien muttered shakily.

"I seriously thought I was dead."

The truth was, Caelum had withdrawn most of his strength at the last moment.

Otherwise, that punch really would have killed him.

In just those brief exchanges alone, Xien had already been beaten countless times.

Nearly all of his techniques and abilities had been extracted by Caelum.

At that point, the battle naturally came to an end.

"That’s enough for now."

Caelum relaxed his stance.

"Haa..."

Xien finally let out a long breath of relief.

If the fight had continued any longer, he truly feared Caelum would accidentally kill him.

"Think of it as a warm up before fighting Hawkeamps."

Caelum rolled his neck casually, excitement flickering in his eyes.

"Just so we’re clear, I’ll kill Sidarco and Hawkeamps for you."

"But I can’t guarantee Universe Seven survives the process."

"Fight without holding back."

Xien answered decisively.

"If sacrificing one universe can save the other eleven, then it’s worth it."

"Good."

Caelum had never been the type to hesitate.

He pressed two fingers against his forehead and activated Omniscience, searching throughout Universe Seven for Sidarco and Hawkeamps.

As expected of the highest level divine art in the Super Universe.

He found them instantly.

"Found you."

The moment the words left his mouth, Caelum vanished using Universal Shift.

Flash!

Following their energy signatures, he appeared on a distant planet.

The instant he arrived, a fist came crashing toward him.

Boom!

The collision unleashed a massive shockwave across the planet.

The ground beneath them shattered immediately.

The entire planet began collapsing apart.

Caelum calmly raised one hand and caught the incoming punch effortlessly.

The attacker was Hawkeamps.

At close range, Caelum finally saw his true battle power clearly.

Two point five trillion.

But that definitely wasn’t his limit.

If Hawkeamps were only this strong, Xien would not have been so helpless against him.

Caelum was still operating under Hundredfold Burst Technique.

His gaze sharpened.

An invisible pressure wave blasted Hawkeamps backward before Caelum instantly followed up with a kick.

Boom!

Hawkeamps shot through space.

[Super Drop Rate Triggered]

[Obtained Technique: Tenfold Super Spirit Cannon]

[Learn Technique?]

[Learn]

Hawkeamps forcefully stabilized himself beside Sidarco.

Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth after taking only two hits.

Yet his expression looked unbelievably excited.

Sidarco stared at Caelum with visible admiration.

"I never expected someone like you to appear in Universe Seven."

"It was Xien who sent you, wasn’t it?"

"Besides him, nobody else could’ve tracked us down."

Then he extended a hand toward Caelum.

"You understand the saying about the fisherman profiting while both sides suffer, don’t you?"

"Instead of fighting each other to exhaustion..."

"Why don’t we cooperate?"

"Together, we could rule all twelve universes."

Caelum only smiled dismissively.

"Not interested."

Boom!

His aura exploded once more as he fired an energy blast directly toward them.

At the same instant, Hawkeamps unleashed his own power.

"Hundredfold Burst Technique."

A terrifying aura of two hundred fifty trillion swept across the stars.

The galaxy shook violently.

The planet beneath them disintegrated into cosmic dust instantly.

Hawkeamps casually blocked Caelum’s energy blast.

His eyes burned with unconcealed battle lust.

"Doctor."

He grinned.

"I can kill him now, right?"

Sidarco sighed helplessly.

"Kill him."

"Negotiations are over."

"Clearly this brat doesn’t understand reason."

As expected.

Caelum had known Hawkeamps could not possibly be limited to two point five trillion.

Still, he hadn’t expected him to possess Hundredfold Burst Technique too.

Originally, Caelum thought that level alone would be enough to defeat him.

Now he realized he had underestimated his opponent.

"In that case..."

Boom!

Caelum’s aura surged yet again.

"Second Form."
