Chapter 665: End Of The Second Round
Soon, Maximus, Malgron, and Zar faced the Primal Dark Beast.
Boom~
Hiss~
"It's much stronger than I thought!"
Amplifying his strength only by hundreds of millions of times, Zar was sent flying after the clash.
Meanwhile, facing his opponent, Malgron was more cautious.
Not having the power or tough body like Zar, he went roundabout, attacking the Primal Dark Beast with fast counterattacks.
As for Maximus, possessing the strength and skill of both Zar and Malgron, he didn't need to overcomplicate things.
Facing the Primal Dark Beast head-on, Maximus charged, dodging its attack.
"Now~"
Bam!~
In a split second, Maximus's power quickly soared a billion times, sending the Primal Dark Beast tumbling down.
Roar~
Hurt, the Primal Dark Beast roared, glaring at him in rage.
"A billion-fold magnitude of power can barely match the peak strength of an Absolute." Maximus sighed in disappointment.
Seeing the Primal Dark Beast still standing, he continued to attack, dodging at a million-fold amplitude and then increasing to a billion-fold when striking.
Watching the three fight, the individuals remaining in the base couldn't help but feel amazed.
"Is Lord Maximus stronger than Lord Zar?!"
"It goes without saying!"
"Lord Maximus is the greatest!"
Unlike Maximus, who was evenly matched with and even suppressed the Primal Dark Beast, Zar and Malgron were struggling.
It would take some time for Zar to reach the amplification of a billion times, while Malgron could barely inflict any damage.
"What's wrong, Malgron? Are you this weak?" Zar taunted.
Although he was being beaten up, it was only a matter of time before he fought back.
On the other hand, although Malgron was landing hits, he wasn't doing any real damage.
"Just wait, I'm getting a little rusty," Malgron said, concentrating.
Because of the thick chaotic miasma, he couldn't get a good feel for his path of law.
Using it for the first time since his reincarnation, Malgron was a little out of practice.
"Oh~"
Understanding Malgron's situation, Zar no longer bothered him.
Soon, a few hours later, reaching billion-fold amplification, Zar felt liberated.
"Three minutes~ Let's have fun for three minutes."
Collecting over two hundred ultimate materials, Maximus lengthened the duration of his billion-fold amplification to three minutes.
Licking his lips, he charged at the Primal Dark Beast head-on.
Bang~
Disregarding the opponent's attacks, Zar aimed to finish it quickly.
He only had three minutes—a time frame in which he could deal real damage to his opponent.
Taking blows one after another, the Primal Dark Beast began to turn sluggish, as if on the brink of death.
Unfortunately, as the three minutes ended and Zar wilted, the Primal Dark Beast was still standing.
"Damn beast!"
Seeing the Primal Dark Beast slowly heal itself, Zar's face turned ugly.
"Hahaha, a three-minute boy!" Malgron laughed, watching the battle.
"Shut up!"
Unwilling to give up, Zar waited for the energy-loading device to cool down before using it again.
According to its settings, he should be able to activate it again after a day.
Meanwhile, Maximus, who was suppressing the Primal Dark Beast, began to slow his movements.
Exerting too much burst power, even for a moment, was too damaging to his core of origin.
Letting his core of origin rest and heal, he began to kite the Primal Dark Beast, preparing for a long battle.
It had taken Marcus years to defeat a Primal Dark Beast, and Maximus didn't think he could do any better.

Meanwhile, at the stronghold, the clone of Nyx and the incarnation of Sira leisurely watched the fight.
"Those three are strong," Sira praised.
Although they still hadn't reached the realm of an Absolute, they could easily match one.
Given enough time, they might grow to rival Marcus, who had reached the power of an Overlord even at the mere Tier 11 Absolute realm.
"Barely passable," Nyx snorted, dismissive.
As the will of the Abyss, he was at the Tier 11 realm himself.
Standing side by side with the Overlords despite his low realm, Nyx was proud to say he was the strongest at his rank.
Unfortunately, due to the nature of dimensional will, he wasn't treated in the same status.
"Don't be too harsh. These talents are the future of the Aeon Plane."
Even if only one of the three reached the Overlord realm, it would be an immense help to the current situation of the Aeon Plane.
"Tsk. What about that Paragon? Ascelon bragged that he was our way out of the tunnel, yet where is he?" Nyx asked, looking for Paragon.
Before Maximus's appearance, the highest prodigy of the Dimensional Alliance had been Paragon.
Hailed as the light of the Dimensional Alliance, Paragon was regarded as the strongest prodigy.
Yet, looking around, Nyx couldn't even see his shadow.
After the Dark Beast Wave, Paragon seemed to have faded from existence.
"It can't be. Did he die?" Sira guessed, sighing in loss.
"Hmph! What a useless talent. Prodigy, my ass," Nyx complained.
"I'm sorry, Your Excellencies. It seems I've made a bad impression on your minds."
Suddenly, a cold voice sounded behind them, sending chills down their spines.
"You—? Paragon?!"
"What? Can't recognize me?" Paragon smiled coldly.
"What happened to you?" Nyx asked with a frown.
Paragon's aura felt more like the Abyss—unfathomable. Stay updated through empire
If he hadn't voluntarily shown himself, they wouldn't even have sensed he was there.
Although suppressed by their current bodies, they still retained the consciousness of an Overlord.
"Nothing. I just found some interesting things on my way back," Paragon replied, sitting beside them as if he were an equal.
"Found something?"
Although suspicious, they didn't pry deeper.
Given Paragon's status and strength, they would get nothing unless they brought out their real bodies.
Sitting back, they returned to watching Maximus and the others fight.
"Don't you want to help?" Sira asked, seeing how leisurely Paragon was.
"I'm sure they can handle it themselves," Paragon said confidently.
Each one was a key target of the Order of Light. How could a mere Primal Dark Beast defeat them?
