Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 3147: 648: The Threefold Division of the World

It was desirable that not even a sliver would remain for Nora.

And so it was.

Both Supremes of Nightmare had met their end.

The ancient Nightmare World was utterly removed from the grand hierarchy.

The Palace of Blood and Flesh could not be relocated.

Levi promptly returned to the Nightmare World, ensuring the Abyss would not claim it.

From this day forward, this world of crimson and ebony would belong to Nora.

Within this realm, the Palace of Blood and Flesh would be most secure.

The Land of Darkness.

The Netherworld Ancestor joined the fray, surrounding the Will of the Abyss along with the Mother River.

The latter was immediately put on the defensive, the tide of the battle turning in an instant.

Presently, Kars was being pursued by the Chaotic Servant, leaving the Abyss Will isolated.

The Fallen Star Lord had already vanished, clearly defeated.

It was likely succumbing to the intense clash with Levi, rendering it incapable of wielding Supreme Power.

As for the Lord of Chaotic Star and the Lord of Buried Stars, they had not yet ascended to the Supreme level.

They served as the Nightmare Will’s ultimate contingency against the astral plane, not to be deployed rashly.

Any other demon powerhouses arriving would offer little aid.

The Abyss Will recognized the necessity of a strategic retreat.

This entire expedition had proven fruitless.

Despite having consumed half of the Nightmare Will.

The paramount Blood and Flesh Palace and Nightmare Stone remained elusive.

Coupled with the elimination of the Fallen Star Lord.

In summation, no significant gains were achieved.

One could only state that it had not endured a loss...

"Just wait and see who gets the final laugh."

The Abyss Will tore through the Mother River and departed with a sense of victory.

If it desired to leave, no force in this universe could prevent its departure.

The Abyss Realm Worm fractured space itself, making a swift exit with the Demon Army.

The Mother River lingered in the void, cautious of any lingering ploy.

Above Chaotic City.

The penetrating gaze of the Abyss Will pierced the void.

"Kars! I will personally ensure your demise!"

The Star Ancestor could not concern itself with Kars, but the Abyss Will now had the time.

In pursuit of reclaiming the Nightmare Stone and to appease its wrath.

It intended to hunt Kars down itself!

...

Within the Nightmare World.

"The Abyss forces have retreated."

"Have we achieved victory?"

"It appears so... we have just borne witness to the highest caliber of battle in the Multidimensional Plane's history, observing the demise of the Nightmare Will and the Master of Horror."

"Indeed, out of the four colossal entities, only three now stand."

"The Nightmare World is now under our dominion."

Myriad voices erupted in cheers, reveling in their triumph.

There was also profound relief at having survived such a cataclysm.

The recent conflict among the three Supremes had felt like the world's final moments.

Had the Mother River not intervened, the Nightmare World itself might have crumbled.

Then there was the Chaos Emperor.

He had confronted the Master of Horror single-handedly.

Ultimately, he utilized the ancient tower to crush his adversary.

This was a Level 10 entity, vanquishing a Supreme.

Ancestor Levi brought the Blood and Flesh Palace to Nightmare City.

He instructed Fingal to dispatch troops for its protection.

This was, at present, the most valuable acquisition, its spoils to be shared with the Underworld.

Levi stated:

"Maintain your vigilance; be wary of the Abyss attempting a resurgence."

...

Time flowed onward, and a full month elapsed.

After confirmation of the Abyss's departure, the Mother River also returned to the Underworld.

Levi observed that, among the Supreme Wills he had encountered.

Only the Mother River maintained a consistent silence, possessing a distinct individuality.

It appeared disinclined towards interaction.

With the cessation of hostilities, the Nightmare Council commenced the meticulous cleanup of the battlefield, concurrently addressing the integration of those who had surrendered and newly joined factions, as an increasing number of powerhouses pledged allegiance to the Nightmare Council.

Ultimately.

The number of Level 10 Nightmare entities within the council settled at a precise count of 200, neither too many nor too few. Levi's next directive would be to reform and train these formidable individuals, rapidly transforming them into potent fighting assets.

The subjugation of Nightmare was merely the inaugural phase of Nora's grand objective.

The Abyss, the astral plane, and the insectoid forces still remained to be conquered.

However, there was no question that.

With two Primordial Treasures, four Supreme Combat Entities, and upwards of 500 Level 10s, the Nora Netherworld United Body had ascended to become the preeminent force within this universe.

Without exception.

Although the astral world possessed a numerical advantage in divine beings, should a true conflict erupt, they would be no match for Nora's cadre exceeding 500 individuals, a significant portion of whom were deities of lesser standing.

In reflection, during its zenith, Nightmare boasted five hundred Monarchs.

Following numerous conflicts where strength prevailed over weakness, only 200 remained; the remaining three hundred were distributed amongst Nora, the Underworld, and the Abyss, a tragic testament to their fate.

As for the Nightmare Overlords, merely 1800 endure in the world today, and ensuring the absolute control of these combat assets by the council constituted the primary focus of the council's future endeavors.

Further benefits were reaped from this momentous conflict.

The fragment of the [Stone of Horror] that he'd obtained, for example, possessed the capability to bolster the [Dreams of Revolving], a treasure of the highest order, or it could be utilized in the process of refining and strengthening the Nightmare Emperor Dragon Power.

With the Nightmare-related affairs temporarily set aside.

Levi pierced through the dimensional barrier of the crimson-black world, making his return to Nora.

His inaugural venture into the Nightmare realm concluded without any unforeseen complications.

...

Simultaneously.

Across the vast expanse of the universe, Kars found himself in a desperate flight.

The relentless pursuit of the Chaotic Servant and the Abyss Will hounded his every move.

"I've overplayed my hand this time."

Should he fail to elude his pursuers, his sanctuary would remain beyond his reach.

After a brief period of contemplation, Kars directed his gaze toward the astral realm.

With a decisive leap, he materialized above the Sea of Ruins.

"Star Ancestor! Star Ancestor! I never would have predicted... my return so swiftly!"

An aura of supreme dominance, unreserved and audacious, surged forth, sending tremors through countless powerful entities within the astral world.

Boom! Boom!

The Chaotic Servant and the Abyss Will likewise descended into the Sea of Ruins.

Logically, this was not the opportune moment to venture into the astral world.

However, in their shared objective to reclaim the Nightmare Stone, all parties were fully committed.

Elsewhere.

The Star Ancestor, who had been in pursuit of the maternal nest’s will, wore a deeply troubled expression.

"To have the audacity to reappear?"

Its disposition soured considerably, even contemplating a temporary diversion from its pursuit of the maternal nest’s will.

It would sooner permit the astral world to sustain further devastation than allow this individual to escape.

Yet, upon detecting two familiar energies, its countenance underwent a drastic transformation.

"All Gods, muster! The Abyss advances!"

...

Within a dimension defying conventional description.

Towering walls stretched infinitely in every direction.

Adjacent to these colossal walls stood rows upon rows of bookshelves, meticulously arranged and laden with an extensive collection of volumes, encompassing everything from profound esoteric knowledge to subjects of general interest like humanities, social sciences, and detailed depictions of global landscapes.
