This change was reflected almost imdiately in the struggle between Damien and the Primal Sovereign.
Suddenly, the Primal Sovereign's avatar beca faint. His control over the surrounding swallowing force dimd down as well.
In truth, the Primal Sovereign's mana wasn't actually space-attributed. This was a difference between him and regular Space Beasts.
While he relied almost wholly on his connection with space to show his amazing prowess, his mana actually contained swallowing attributes from his lineage as a Heaven Swallowing Beast.
Realistically, cutting off his spatial connection shouldn't interfere with his and Damien's battle. However, the truth was far from what was expected.
While the Primal Sovereign didn't directly use space-attributed mana, he was still a Space Beast. His core strength lay within the universe's foundation.
When he utilized Spatial Essence, it didn't just work as an attack or defense thod. Because his body was infused with unholy amounts of the essence, being surrounded by it actually made his regeneration speed unfathomable. It was the reason he could still stand tall after being injured to such an extent by humanity's Demigods.
Within the confines of space, he was invincible.
But now that he'd been cut off completely, he was impacted by the true extent of his wounds. His body was wracked with soul-rending pain that made him want to scream out.
And to make matters worse, the Demigods began attacking with even more fervor!
The Primal Sovereign gritted his teeth and attempted to keep struggling, but he'd truly been crippled! Against the full force of the Void powered by Damien sacrificing his very life, how could he resist?
The scope of his swallowing laws slowly beca smaller and smaller. The Void's scent began emanating from every inch of his body as he was slowly consud.
On the outside, the Demigods were relentless. Massive attacks were let loose every second, utilizing every ounce of mana these sovereigns had to give.
Even Tian Yang joined in on this final attack, creating portals that allowed the 12 Demigods upholding the God Ensnaring Formation to attack as well without leaving their posts.
Previously, it'd only been a group of 12 attacking, and this number decreased with ti. Now, in addition to the remaining 7, 12 more Demigods attacked in tandem! The Primal Sovereign's body couldn't continue resisting!
OOOOOOOOOOH!
An anguished bellow unintentionally left the Primal Sovereign's body. He truly couldn't accept it!
How many years had it been? Almost 500,000? He'd spent that much ti cradling the unnad world's core, lying in wait. The ti before those 500,000 years…he almost couldn't rember. There was a hazy fog covering his mind as he tried to.
But in that mont of life and death, he pierced the fog without even aning to. mories of old flowed into his mind without end.
Space Beasts weren't born, they were created. While each and every one of them possessed a piece of the Ancestral Sovereign within them, there was no real connection.
Space Beasts were independent existences. This was a fact known to even the most common practitioner.
From the mont he ca into existence, the Fifth Primal Sovereign had always been alone. He wandered the starry sky without pause, unknowing of what to do with himself.
What was the purpose of a Space Beast? In usual cases, they didn't even possess the spiritual intelligence to question this fact. The Fifth Primal Sovereign wasn't like these other mindless beasts.
He truly questioned his existence, his purpose, his drive. In his lonely life, the only thing that stood out was power.
Gaining strength was a euphoric feeling. It was addicting, and even if stepping onto the road of strength was almost a guaranteed death for 90% of people, this fact didn't stop anyone from doing so.
After all, it was too tempting. To rise above everything else and stand supre, wasn't that grand?
When the Fifth Primal Sovereign envisioned a day when he would stand equal to the Ancestral Sovereign or even achieve a greater level of strength, his blood boiled with excitent. For a being who had been searching for a purpose for an inestimable amount of ti, this scene was nirvana.
From that mont on, the Primal Sovereign continued to grow. He threw away all other thoughts and even attempted to comprehend laws like humans for the sake of power.
While his attempts were mostly futile, he did manage to grasp a trace of Ti Laws from within the Spatial Essence that always surrounded him. It was through this that he unequivocally witnessed a hint of the future.
That future was sothing he'd never speak of. It was a terrifying prospect. But within that prospect, there was an extrely risky lucky chance.
The Fifth Primal Sovereign had only interacted with the Void a single ti. And even then, that encounter lasted less than a millisecond. Still, it changed his life. It changed his goal. It made him understand that there was always a peak above every peak.
He wanted to see that final peak. That was the reason why he took such drastic actions to et Damien when he was young and still growing into his strength.
But now, he found that destiny was a cruel thing. The universe never cared for his ambitions, for the feelings he cultivated. In the end, he was dead from the mont he made his decision.
Why did he do that? The temptation of strength was imnse, sure, but the scene he saw invoked a primal fear that he'd never felt before. Under the suppression of that fear, why did he still make the choice to continue forth?
In that mont, the Primal Sovereign seed to co to a realization. Glancing at Damien, his avatar bitterly laughed.
"I see…I see…from the beginning…"
His words were cut off. With the threat of external and internal forces ravaging his body, he could no longer sustain his avatar.
Damien's eyes flickered when he saw this. He felt strange in his heart. Before the Primal Sovereign's avatar dispersed…he seed far more lancholic than his character deed fit.
But at this ti, Damien couldn't worry about this fact. He felt sothing in his body click, and soon after, the devouring force went out of his control!
An intense suction wrapped the entirety of the Primal Sovereign's body. Even Damien's own mortal body was pulled into this force! Rapidly, the isolated spaces within the Primal Sovereign began collapsing one after another. His body was being completely destroyed.
At the sa ti, the Void Physique went haywire. It rapidly revolved Void Mana through Damien's system, increasing its quality beyond his capabilities.
In his previous terms, it was similar to Damien forcefully controlling High-Level Void Essence.
His body was slowly twisted apart. It was excruciating, but he didn't die. His vitality was too ferocious for him to die easily. Even after so much exhaustion, his body's instincts alone allowed it to survive.
His body itself beca a black hole.
Soon enough, the rampant devouring force spread outside the Primal Sovereign's body, even enveloping the Demigods within.
Tian Yang's face turned ugly.
"Move!" He shouted out. Although he didn't understand what was happening, he realized that it was the result of his disciple's battle.
The Demigods obeyed Tian Yang's command without hesitation, rapidly retreating. After this battle, he had cented his position as one of humanity's leaders.
BOOM!
While they retreated, a shocking explosion resounded from the Primal Sovereign's body. Looking back, they noticed that the planetary beast body was being compressed at a rapid pace, imploding on itself as if it was being sucked into a black hole.
In their eyes, the Primal Sovereign was already dead. They only realized their mistake after hearing the bellows of agony leaving his mouth.
