Sett clenched his hand around the white core inside Faceless.
At the sa ti, he looked towards the void. He could feel a sensation—a sort of resonance that called to him from a far distance away.
Ah...
He felt emotions rile up through him. He had road through hundreds of thousands of Tombs in search of another person with the sa Axiom as himself. He had dread of that event days in and nights out.
He had wished for soone like that to appear even in his dreams.
But he had never, ever found soone like that in any tomb. In any piece of history.
One Axiom could only exist inside one person at a ti, unless that person dies, no one else would gain the sa Axiom. Yet, if one could find soone with the sa Axiom as themselves inside a Tomb, they could kill that doppelganger to gain all the powers of the other one.
Just like Sett’s mother, Neilara Ramses, once did.
One can beco a person with strength beyond the norm if one did that.
To beco like her, to one day surpass her. Sett felt even more emotional. Now, that was possible. In the distance, sowhere out there—soone resonated with him. The connection had even ignored the dinsional barrier between the Ket Tomb and the real world.
Or perhaps, the connection just entered through the A-tier Tomb’s entrance.
Whatever it was, Sett felt a burst of passion.
The feeling of the other side’s Axiom. Hm—the power of Reincarnation is rich. Almost as strong as at my peak.
Only a few people in the entire world could have that much strength.
A person appeared in Sett’s mind imdiately.
Lon Ronsales Yuhuem.
The current Pharaoh of Ehyut. Sett hadn’t heard too much about the guy—everything he knew, he had learned from Shining White when they had briefly discussed the matter in the City of Burrhen.
But other than that, Sett knew one thing about the Pharaoh.
He had control over Ghosts.
After all, the Pharaoh planned to dominate the Burrhen City using an army of Ghosts.
And Sett, if anyone, knew one skill that was close to Ghosts in his own arsenal: Murder Soul ability. It let him transform all the people he murdered into evil spirits, sothing like Ghosts. But Sett himself did not have any control over them.
That was why he hated that Ability.
What if the other user of the Axiom’s situation was different?
Then they would obviously be able to control those malevolent spirits.
Sett took a deep breath.
Lon Ranseles Yuhuem.
Good. Good. GOOD!
Then, he chuckled and looked at the white core in his hand. This thing had an enormous amount of Territory sealed inside it!
And it was in an easy to absorb state.
Yet, it would still take hours to truly refine that territory.
[Discovered 170 kiloters of Unrefined Territory, would you like to mark it with your aura for later refinent?]
No one would be able to steal this Territory after he marked it.
He would still have to refine it to use that power, but even this unrefined Territory should stabilize his fracturing ntal Space.
Yes, mark it.
[Territory Expanding]
Due to his sheer will, he refined so bit of the unrefined Territory into his own in seconds.
[Refined Territory: 40 kiloters]
[Unrefined Territory: 168 kiloters]
Sett imdiately felt much better. He wished he could absorb the entire Territory into his own Inner Tomb, but sadly—that was impossible for now.
Why?
Because he had to refine it first.
Then, Sett looked at the white core again.
He did not know what this thing was used for or what good it was, but it did seem useful. Sett absorbed it into his Inner Tomb.
He placed a hand on the corpse of Faceless—who was now a bloodied ss.
Limitless Magic—Tomb Slave!
To Sett’s surprise, he felt sothing leave the white core he had just sent into his own Inner Tomb. The thing that had appeared was none other than a Faceless soul with the face of Egrith branded on its chest.
The soul then fell into Faceless’ corpse and it slowly raised into its foot.
Sett watched curiously. He realised that it was only now that Faceless truly died.
[Limitless Evolution Art progressed...]
For now, Sett ignored the ssages.
It kneeled in reverence. Now looking like Egrith.
"My lord," it said softly.
Sett raised an eyebrow. "You have intelligence?"
He felt an instinctual control over the creature’s life and death in his heart. This was his Tomb Slave—he had complete control over it. Yet, it had intelligence and free will?
Was its ’free’ will ntally twisted to be completely loyal?
Sett found it curious.
"Yes, my lord, I am as intelligent as I was when I was alive."
"Can you use Egrith’s Dinsional Abilties?" Sett asked. "I am about to beco really exhausted and this Tomb’s Lord Guardian should be headed towards this place. I need to leave and rest."
Faceless shook its head. "My Lord, all my skills—including the ability to manipulate my own flesh are inside the Life Vessel core you took away from . Without it, I am just a normal Tier 4 being with a physical body stronger than 1000 tons."
Sett’s face changed. "Oh, that core has all the skills? Can I use it?"
"My Lord, you can use it but you would need a body at least ten tis stronger than to bear its energy. That is only suitable for my species. Any other species that wants to use it will need to be ten tis stronger physically or they will beco crushed at."
That ant Sett needed 10,000 tons of strength to use the core.
Yet, the prospect of being able to one day wield that Dinsional Axiom made Sett almost drool. This was too much of a surprise. It almost felt unreal.
Sett sighed and threw the Core at Faceless for now.
Faceless absorbed it gracefully. "I now have all the skills, but not enough Territory to charge these skills."
Sett gave it access to 10 kiloters of his own Territory.
After all, normal people only needed 10 kiloters to use their True Form.
Sett needed much more than that only because of his Axiom being too strong!
Faceless used its dark dinsional hand to tear open a gateway into the real world.
Sett, sighing in relief, pulled all his Tomb Slaves back into his Inner Tomb. Then, he waited for Zarah and Zainah to co close before throwing them out.
Sett looked at the Ket Tomb again.
I will return soon enough.
He was not yet ready to leave the Cloud Door here. That thing was too useful—Of course Sett planned to take it for himself. Since he could put it in his Inner Tomb, it was not hard to take away Tomb Tech into the real world anymore.
That was a problem of the past!
Then, Sett himself also walked out.
Faceless could not follow. After all, it was a Tomb Slave and they could not enter the real world. Instead, Faceless entered Sett’s Inner Tomb.
The Dinsional gateway they had opened closed out.
Sett breathed in a long breath.
Then, his Deathless Form ended.
His blue skin faded back into normal olive human skin. His eyes regrew. His body beca normal.
He beca human.
Though, sothing differed drastically from his earlier appearance.
Yet, he had no ti to check that.
Just before Darkness swallowed him, Sett let the Monkey out and ordered: "Monkey, keep and the sisters completely safe at all cost."
Then, darkness.
