Chapter 401: Chapter 27: Submission Inside the Dimension Space.
Duncan now seemed like a Demon God gazing down at the Annihilation Plane before him. In his palm, the Annihilation Plane resembled a delicate figurine. As his finger descended, it was as if a thin membrane was pierced, allowing the finger itself to barely enter within.
Inside the Annihilation Plane.
The finger descended from the heavens like a towering pillar!
Friction between the fingertip and the air even ignited flames.
Duncan’s soul body was unbelievably massive compared to the Annihilation Plane, with just one finger piercing through the plane’s barrier proving to be large enough to cover the sky.
All half-planes are wrapped in a barrier covering everything. After the barrier is pierced, energy from the void continuously pours in, directly disrupting the original elemental energy distribution. It’s fortunate that this place is a barren annihilation wasteland, otherwise, other living beings would suffer mass deaths.
Were this in the material world, the atmosphere would have been punctured.
"Celestial descent?!"
The Witch Demon Konggs was trembling slightly at this point; it recognized a certain power emanating from Duncan’s true form, and merely this outer display left the powerful lich bearing a six-star silver-gray mark completely stripped of the courage to resist.
Celestial descent is a kind of extraordinary divine power belonging to mighty deities, akin to the Eastern Law of Heaven and Earth, yet there are still many differences between the two.
Ordinary deities can hardly grasp celestial descent; it requires a powerful presence with at least medium divine power, possibly a Main God of a pantheon, to wield such a force.
The Witch Demon Konggs is quite powerful itself, bearing a six-star silver-gray mark unit, and in most worlds, a five-star mark is already legendary. Yet it is a high-tier legendary presence, even within Dungeons and Dragons, a level 25 and above millennia-old lich.
Yet even for such a powerful being, it had to hide and flee once the Mechanical Divine Sect suppressed reality and established the Earthly Divine Kingdom. In other universes, a slightly weaker demigod wouldn’t pose a threat to it.
Yet the stronger this lich was, the more its fear was in the face of Duncan.
This was a soul-deep terror!
If it wasn’t for its strong spellcasting abilities, allowing it to travel the Spirit Realm, it could never have entered the Annihilation Plane, let alone seen Duncan’s true form.
Rumble!
A giant finger struck the ground, creating a bottomless pit, the terrifying shockwave sending the projection of Konggs flying. Upon entering the Annihilation Plane, its size compared to Duncan’s true form was like a speck of dust; as a finger flipped, the frightened lich cautiously landed atop it.
An endless dark void.
Konggs now didn’t know where it was—whether at the deepest part of the Spirit Realm or some part of the chaotic void; looking upward, it saw the dark giant, planet-like in size, and itself as a small dust speck pinched at its fingertips.
This presence seemed a dark monarch in void, overseeing the infinite chaotic universe.
"Submit? Or perish?"
The voice of the Chaos Evil God, bound with the dark void, was a thunderous roar, each word and phrase infused with the power of Law Command True Words.
Konggs wouldn’t mistake it because only Law Command True Words could shake its soul.
A being like it, known in the West as a Death Monarch, and in the East a thousand-year-old demon of the magical path (those who wield the Ten Thousand Souls Banner), with the ability to shake its soul across worlds, even causing its Soul Box to tremble slightly, was sure to be a Main God-level presence with powerful divine power.
Such beings often command a pantheon!
Without hesitation.
Konggs immediately knelt, humbly bowing its head, signifying submission.
Inside the Dimension Space.
Duncan withdrew his soul projection. He had intended to attempt capturing the target into the Dimension Space, but seemingly failed to do so, since this lich remained a mere mortal, without dimensional upgrade. Even upon upgrading, it could only reside in the lowest layer of the Dimension Space.
Slowly, he retracted his hand, with an intent, placing the Annihilation Plane back to the bottom of the Dimension Space.
If this were part of his figurine collection, it’d be the most inferior, doomed to gather dust at the bottom; Duncan has yet to find something worthy to keep in higher dimensions.
Perhaps a True God’s Divine Country could be placed higher.
Projection page.
From an omniscient perspective, the Witch Demon Konggs, having returned to reality, knelt before the third human form, with extreme humility saying: "Your Majesty."
"If you require anything, always instruct your loyal servant, Konggs."
Now it dared not question anything.
Never again did any doubt linger in this lich’s mind, even faintly speculating such a powerful presence descending upon this world might have been summoned by the God of Machinery.
For it knew even the God of Machinery had fallen, with human form and divine format shattered into many fragments.
The third human form’s expression remained unchanged; Duncan refocused on the projection page, saying indifferently: "Rise."
"I have just arrived in this world."
"There are many questions I wish to ask you."
The Witch Demon Konggs fearfully rose, respectfully saying: "Your loyal servant dares not conceal anything."
Duncan pondered momentarily, looking down at the lich, asking: "Were you once human?"
Back in the dimensional level, he’d peered into its soul, feeling somewhat like human.
Konggs bowed its head: "I was once half-elf."
"A hybrid human and dark elf."
"My father was a heroic spirit from the Mythical Era, and later ventured into the Underworld and was captured by my mother."
"Dark elves favor strong bloodlines, hence I was born."
