Chapter 1036 Resolving karma (I)
Zatiel's left eye, the Eye of Sin and Man, unleashed a monstrous burst of power as corrupted energy began to emanate from his soul force. Suddenly, his body began to tremble as a golden incarnation emerged.
It resembled Zatiel in appearance, but pure and absolute arrogance and narcissism flooded the eyes of the golden incarnation. Everything and everybody should bow down in its presence and worship it as its savior and god.
If such an entity were allowed to roam free, countless universes would suffer. Luckily, it lacked a true soul, and its sole purpose was to fuse into the Soulbound Womb.
Once the Incarnation of Pride fused with the Soulbound Womb, Zatiel's body trembled for the second time, and now a green incarnation emerged from his body.
Like the golden incarnation, this one resembled Zatiel, but the intent it unleashed was unrestrained jealousy. It wanted to steal the treasure, love, and happiness of all life forms in the multiverse, leaving them as empty shells.
However, the Incarnation of Envy could not fight back its purpose and fused into the Soulbound Womb.
The Soulbound Womb's power rose tremendously after the fusion of the Incarnation of Pride and Envy fused with it, and it grew even stronger as the Incarnation of Gluttony also merged with it.
Zatiel's face grew pale after the generation of those three incarnations since they were not simple humanoids made of energy but the embodiments of his seven deadly sins.
Whenever one of those incarnations left his body, he would lose the capacity to feel that emotion. Of course, he would regain the ability with time, but it should tell anyone just how powerful and significant each of them was.
It did not take long for a blue incarnation to also leave Zatiel's body. This one was pure desire, wanting to ravage everything in its sire and spread his seed across the multiverse.
Like the other three, the Incarnation of Lust could not suppress its desire and blended into the Soulbound Womb.
The following incarnation was red, and there was a burning rage and killing intent in its eyes, one that would stop at nothing to see its enemies destroyed.
Such was the might of the Incarnation of Wrath that once it merged into the Soulbound Womb, the energy of this one nearly doubled.
Zatiel felt extremely tired but did not allow himself to stop and made a silver incarnation emerge. It wanted all and did not know the meaning of enough.
Despite its power, the Incarnation of Greed suffered the same fate as the other five, becoming one with the Soulbound Womb.
Finally, it was time for a violent incarnation to emerge from Zatiel. Unlike the active and violent energy of the other six, this one was peaceful, as if it only wanted to sleep.
The Incarnation of Sloth's fusion into the Soulbound Womb allowed a qualitative evolution of this one, greatly enhancing its power.
Despite the happiness in his heart due to the incredible power of the Soulbound Womb, Zatiel showed no excitement on his face. While the seven deadly sins were the source of great evils, they were also part of mind and soul, granting life forms a sense of drive and desire.
Luckily, it did not take long for silver flames to emerge in Zatiel's eyes, and his emotions slowly began to regenerate, allowing him access to the full spectrum of life.
A small smile emerged on Zatiel's face as he saw the incredible forces contained in the Soulbound Womb and began empowering it.
The remnants of the dark force field carried a vast power. Zatiel harnessed this energy, purifying it and channeling it into the Soulbound Womb. This infusion heightened the sphere's connection to the Concepts, making it a wellspring of boundless potential.
"RUBLE!"
All of a sudden, the Emptiness began to tremble as the Soulbound Womb emanated an eerie and captivating resonance, an embodiment of the Concepts it contained. Each Concept within the sphere pulsed with its own unique energy, forming a harmonious symphony of abstract ideas.
Zatiel's eyes grew sharp as he focused on Ezequiel's Primordial Essence. He deposited the black-white lightning particle inside the Soulbound Womb with extreme care before generating runes made with white flames that sealed the treasure.
Immense satisfaction appeared on Zatiel's face as he focused on the Soulbound Womb and Lawweaver Womb. Once Ezequiel and Venganza emerge from it, they would not only have attained Omnipotence, but their cultivation would have evolved all the way to the Peak Middle Stage.
Zatiel did not waste time before sending both Reality Override Treasures into his Inner Universe, where Late Stage forces would constantly nurture them.
As he focused on his Inner Universe, a meaningful life appeared on the Samsara Thearch. He waved his hand, allowing the soul of the Winged Whale to emerge.
Previously, Zatiel captured the creature and used its body to create the Worldmelder Armor. He finally had the time and power to pay it for its help.
Since the soul was intact, Zatiel could reforge the body with little effort. He used his own blood as the raw material, granting the Winged Whale an exceptionally durable body and engraving cloaking runes in its bones.
The Winged Whale was a very peaceful creature that desired nothing more than to roam the Emptiness, so Zatiel made sure that not even Middle Stage life form could detect its presence from now on.
Light returned to the Winged Whale's eyes as Zatiel released it from his illusion. Confusion was in the creature's eyes, but all its worries soon vanished.
"WHOOOOOMMMMM!"
With a beautiful whale-like howl, the Winged Whale merged into the Emptiness and floated away without a care in the world.
A flash of envy appeared in Zatiel's eyes, along with a small smile as he saw the serene nature of the Winged Whale. He was a Reality Override life form at the peak of the Verse, but it would be long before he could enjoy a sense of peace like that.
"I should resolve all my karma before returning to the Daybreak Universe."
