Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World 186 Path Of Gods

Most of them had understood that high-grade articles were not something they could obtain, but this was an opportunity to abroad their horizon and it could help them in the future when they become stronger and found such things in their explorations around the universe.

Zatiel, Sophia, Heinz, Zitra, and Totto were sitting in their suite. The group was not paying to much attention to the items that were coming at the beginning since just like day one, the first things Minser displayed were not of much use for people like them.

The three Soul Forging existences only began to buy after a couple of hours and most of the things they acquired were potions useful for training and those that could replenish their energies or heal deep wounds during battles.

But nothing called the attention of the trio until a small dagger contained in a crystal box appeared on the platform.

The dagger was extremely old and in very poor shape. It is full of indentations and has patches of rust all over the blade showing a high level of corrosion.

What draws the attention of everyone to the dagger is the erratic powers that were surrounding it and that they clash among each other releasing high levels of energy.

Of the group of five, the ones who were more interested in the dagger were Zitra and Zatiel. 

Unlike the excitement that appeared on the Magus's eyes, the Neo-Demon was frowning and his Eye of Life and Creation was inspecting the dagger.

Seeing that the dagger accomplished to obtain the attention of the people in the audience, Minser begins to speak.

"This dagger was collect from an ancient battlefield in a High World were billions of lives were lost and the continent where it happened was destroyed. The dagger itself was a powerful artifact but due to thousands of years of deterioration and the damage it took during battles, now its nothing more than a single piece of metal." Minser voice was soft but everyone in the auditorium could hear them as if they were next to him.

The explanation of the old man surprised a lot of people and everyone focuses on the impressive powers that were moving around the dagger

They know that Minser would not be lying but considering that the dagger had lost its abilities, then how could it release such destructive energy?.

The old man knew the effect his words will have on people and he proceeds to explain.

"The reason for the energy you see in the dagger comes from the rust on it. The rust and corrosion were produced by the blood of a Rank 6 life form and it seems the dagger was used to pierce his heart and probably destroy his bodies.

Like many of you know, as we become stronger our souls and laws start to affect our body and it reaches the point where every single cell can display all sorts of mystical powers.

The dagger is no longer useful for fighting since it could collapse in any second but it can help people increase their law comprehension."

Law comprehension is something essential to advance to Rank 4 and beyond. Its also needed to increase the power of your soul and body.

There is none who is not interested in it, but you also need to be sure the laws in the dagger were useful for you and if they can reach some level of synergy with their other laws.

The reason for Zitra's feeling was the fact she could feel the Law of Light and the Law of Shadows in the dagger and they were at a higher level than hers.

"You need to be careful with that dagger."

Zitra was surprised when she hears those words and turn to Zatiel who was still looking at the dagger.

She was confused and was not the only one since both Heinz and Totto could also feel the power of the laws in the dagger but could not detect any problem in it.

"There is only one path of power whose law comprehension can be so erratic and chaotic despite reach such high level and that is the Path of G.o.ds." Zatiel face was serious as he speaks.

The Path of G.o.ds is one of the most important paths of power in the universe, just like the Magi Path. There is a High World named The Divinity World that is completely dominated by users of this path.

This path of power is very popular due to the fact its speed of comprehension over the laws is one of the faster that exists and it doesn't rely on talent but in the use of prayers to channel the belief and devotion of wors.h.i.+pers.

It grants the highest lifespan and it is not weird for theirs to be ten times higher than other life forms in the same Rank. 

They also have the ability to create Avatars that can express a decent level of the G.o.d's power.

At a certain Rank, a G.o.d can create something called Divine Kingdom. That is an immense dimension where their powers grow exponentially and they can literally channel the entire power of the kingdom into their attacks.

The Divine Kingdom can also receive the souls of the devout people after their death and allow them to spend thousands of years in perpetual happiness before they are pulled into the Eternal River of the Afterlife.

Like everything that seems too good, this path has severe disadvantages. 

A G.o.d must always follow the laws with which he had chosen to be a.s.sociated, for example, a G.o.d of Plague must continuously spread diseases and epidemics. It reaches the point where it affects their mind and guides their desires.

Failure to enact their laws, or worse, act in opposition to them can make a G.o.d fall and have their soul shatter.

And that is not all, a G.o.d must always have living people devoted to them. That is why they form churches and spread their religions. 

If people forgot them, then they will slowly weaken until they become nothing more than a mortal.

For those reasons is why the Path of G.o.d is mocked by some powerful individuals like the Slave Path since you become a slave of the laws.

Zitra face was pale while she considers all the implications that studying the laws in the dagger could carry.

If she were to focus on the laws around the dagger and try to emulate their behavior with her laws, her law comprehension could be corrupted and her True Soul affected by the path of the G.o.d whose blood was left in the dagger.

Once that happens, the only thing she could do is give up the Magi Path and become a G.o.d and for that, she will need to find a new world and conquer it since the Path of G.o.ds is not a path that could prosper in the Magi World.

"Then the dagger is useless?" Zitra was disappointed when she hears Zatiel description but she did not doubt him.

She was smart enough to understand that Zatiel knowledge was something neither she, Heinz, or Totto could match. He has already proved his understanding of the laws when he displayed the evolution of duality to her.

"Not necessarily, there is a way you could benefit from the laws in the dagger" Zatiel eyes were filled with wisdom and reminiscence.

He is an expert on the Path of G.o.ds. The Divine Kingdom and Avatars of a G.o.d are incredibly useful and he certainly wanted them for the race he created when he was the Incarnation of Death and Destruction.

He captured thousands of individuals who follow that path and also searched in the most archaic tomes of knowledge to figure out the principles behind them.

"You will need to identify the features of the Path of G.o.ds that remain in the laws around the dagger and eliminate them. Only then you can try to understand the essence of the Law of Light and the Law of Shadows and slowly enhance your own comprehension. The blood belonged to a Demi-G.o.d of Light and Shadows so I have a technique that can help you identify the qualities of its path." Zatiel speaks without much interest and it was clear he did not consider the information too important.

Zitra was looking at Zaitel with admiration and was incredibly happy he had come with them to the auction.

She was not the only one, Heinz and Totto were feeling the same. This time it was Zitra, but if the laws around the dagger would have been related to their own and Zatiel was not here to warn them, they could have made an irreversible mistake.

With Zatiel a.s.sistance to solve the problem in the dagger, Zitra was determined to buy it. 

She was not the only one interested in it but luckily there was no Rank 6 Magus that want it the dagger so she was able to buy it for 4.8 billion magic crystals.
