"Have they submitted so easily?"
Noah looked sowhat surprised at the layers of demon runes peeling off his adoptive father Casius' body. These were both a blessing and reinforcent from the Abyssal Will, as well as a shackle and confinent.
As these demon runes disintegrated, a will hidden within the Titan Body dissipated slowly with despair and helplessness, leaving nothing behind in the end.
"Hell has no reason to continue opposing you, seeing as you truly possess the power to destroy it."
The Sacrificial Snake, half of its body wedged into Hell, remarked with a laugh as if its own presence didn't exist.
In fact, the descent of two epic beings, especially the Sacrificial Snake, which existed for countless ages beyond even its own mory, exerted a deterrent force on the Abyss Will that was more than tenfold stronger than Noah himself.
Though Noah possessed the ability to destroy Hell, his deterrent power couldn't compare to beings like the Sacrificial Snake. A Hell lacking complete rules couldn't marshal all its power to resist excessively potent external threats.
However, such external threats capable of overwhelming Hell were exceedingly rare. Normally, no epic being would enter the lower planes, as the external world held no value for them.
True divinities would not descend to the lower planes unless absolutely necessary. These lands did not belong to their domain and were entirely designed to suppress them. Being there subjected them to comprehensive suppression, while the drain on divine power was the least of their worries; more importantly, there was an imnse risk of falling.
A divine entity's true body falling is no joke. Even if a divine being can resurrect, it cannot happen repeatedly, especially during the period of resurrection when an enemy might exploit the vulnerability, possibly tearing the Immortal Divine Throne to shreds and causing a final fall.
Epics don't have such concerns; wherever they are, they remain at full strength, unaffected by the environnt. Instead, the environnt undergoes drastic changes due to their presence.
Just like Noah, who rely ripped through the void and entered Hell, without intentionally doing anything, yet the bursting brilliance led millions of devils to perish.
The battle with nurous Hell Lords nearly shattered a layer of the Hell plane, while Noah only sustained minor injuries. Compared to the part of Hell now in ruin, it hardly constituted any injury.
Noah's threat to destroy Hell was not empty talk; he could achieve it if he wished to spend the ti, even though Hell had deep foundations, without equivalent power to resist, it would ultimately be obliterated.
"Uncle!"
Having successfully threatened the Abyssal Will into compromise and withdrawal, Noah gazed at the changes in his adoptive father's body. As the gifts and blessings from the Abyssal Will gradually collapsed, the true appearance of the Titan's original form slowly erged.
However, during this process, the Titan, transford into a Hell Demon God, saw its aura continuously decline. Casius was progressively losing everything granted by the Abyssal Will after usurping his body.
The taste of continuously losing power wasn't pleasant, but Casius remained very calm. This wasn't the first ti he experienced such a feeling, especially since this ti, what he lost was rely the epheral power gifted by the Abyssal Will.
What he lost and willingly relinquished earlier was the Titan Bloodline power he was born with and developed himself. Although the two powers were incomparable in strength, the aning and experience of loss were fundantally different.
"I can..."
Noah watched his adoptive father, whose realm continued to decline and was about to fall to that of a Legendary, ready to once again pressure the Abyssal Will.
"No need, this power doesn't belong to , I don't need it!"
Before Noah could finish speaking, Casius already understood the intentions of his adoptive son, but the man resolutely refused.
The power of the Abyssal Will was indeed comndable, but he didn't need puppet-style fostering. Even if he required it, he would choose to conquer and master it himself.
However, the original Hell lacked such patience, eagerly invading his body, attempting to transform his body into that of the legendary Epic Titan, only to prove defenseless in the end.
"Grandfather, you should now be able to leave Hell. What are your plans for the future? Would you like to return to Xilantia with ?"
"How is the Augustus family doing now?"
Casius, regarded by the Augustus family as the First Patriarch and the glorious founder, finally rembered his family at this mont and asked Noah.
"Developing very well, the Augustus family has now migrated a bloodline branch to a dium-sized Material Realm..."
Noah roughly explained, yet skillfully downplayed, without ntioning how the Augustus family was implicated by the invasion of the Abyssal Will upon this First Patriarch.
The demonic corruption was the cloud hovering over the entire Augustus family after first-generation Casius and second-generation Tidel were eroded by the Abyss Will.
In the span of a century, the Augustus family spent countless manpower, resources, and wealth suppressing the demonic descendants corrupted by the Hell's power, preventing them from tarnishing the glory of the Augustus family.
Without this ancestral bloodline curse, the power of the Augustus family would far exceed that of today. However, without the existence of the first generation, the Augustus family would also not have the present glory.
"Why migrate to that world?"
Casius frowned. Although his consciousness had been suppressed by the Abyssal Will, he was aware of the passage of ti outside. In the few short centuries, given the developnt speed of the Augustus family, there was no reason to migrate to another dium-sized Material Realm.
