This push was like buddha pressing upon the unrighteous, condemning the wicked, and eliminating all darkness. A vast, unfathomably pure aura surfaced. An ocean-like wave was created that seemed to wish to engulfed the world.

The aura caused all the knights and kitsune to initiate a screeching stop of their actions. In fact, some of the knights and the kitsune were literally screeching!

A heart-pounding sensation of purity left them in fear and reverence that emanated from their existence. They froze.

Akio halted his blade. The heart of a knight had been spared as his focus turned elsewhere. His eyes became needles and his heart became a drum. The pounding sound emitted from his heart didn't just emerge in his heart but his very soul.

King Caliburn had also stopped. His black eyes looked at the incoming wave with horror and shock.

"The World of Light!" Akio and King Caliburn said at the exact same time. Their voices echoed endlessly as they did.

Yan Zaizen's eyes lit as he heard their words, but his actions didn't stop. Instead, he overturned his palm and the heavens and heart was integrated by his pure heavenly might. The laws of space flipped, what was up became down and what was down became up.

He smashed his palm downwards and a force was generated from this action. In accordance to the profound laws of the heavens, gravity had been intensified by countless times.

Boom! Boom! Crash!

Everyone in the sky crashed downwards, no, upwards, as they landed on the ground in various awkward positions. Akio and King Caliburn were not exempt. Before they could even muster an iota of resistance, their energies seemed to be drawn away from them and left them powerless.

The heaven's bestowed strength, but now, it seemed it wished to siphon off all their various powers.

"How about you all sit for a moment," Yan Zaizen smilingly transmitted to the thoughts of everyone present. With but a palm, with but a motion, he restricted everyone.

Akane watched, mouth agape as she bore witness to something she could barely fathom. The sight before her eyes was a world inverted, and they all seemed to be hanging upside down yet upright. The outright contradiction caused her soul to rethink reality and her core beliefs were shaken.

Yan Zaizen had applied, with his pure heavenly might, a conceptualization of the Heavenly Law. He wanted to verify if he could truly connect and overturn the very heavens. When he actually achieved it, even he was shocked. Despite his smiling appearance, he was shook as equally as Akane.

The world before him had turned inverted, his thoughts became laws, and his desires became physics.

However, a grin surfaced. This grin was filled with anticipation at this power. "Is this Heavenly Law? It encapsulates the functionality of all things! In that case!" He took a deep breath and gathered his thoughts. Closing his eyes, a faint white glow emerged behind his eyelids.

When he re-opened his eyes, the world before him changed. Immediately, he looked into the sky.

When he did, he saw a fractured entity. It was fragmented, but the pieces faintly resembled a spherical object, but a few portions were missing. It's size was beyond massive, seemingly incredibly close yet far. He had experienced a feeling like this once before, in the 7th Heaven.

He calmed himself as he made various speculations. When he finally did, his eyes no longer contained that heavenly power and returned to normal, but a hint of confusion remained.

"S..sir...Ascension?" Akane's words were said as if it was only through utter shock.

"I've done what you're requested, no?" He regained his confident tone, the confusion in his eyes was no longer present. With a calm smile, he returned his focus back onto the sword in the stone.

"It's about time for you to come out." His tone became aggressive as his eyes narrowed. He gripped the hilt of the blade tightly, his body emitting waves and waves of heavenly might. The purity that originated from the Non-Verse's Law of Purity continued to increase in intensity.

With a hefty tug, he directly pulled the sword out of the stone.

It was an arming sword, but it was completely black in color. It contained impurity and a disgusting aura. It felt repulsive to even look at, feeling as if one's eyes were stained by watching it. Akane's eyes widened as she saw this arming sword, her eyes flashed with various emotions.

Abruptly, she lost consciousness. Her body met a thud as it lifelessly collided with the ground. The sound was nearly sickening.

Yan Zaizen turned towards her, his eyebrows furrowed. A multitude of auras started to rise from afar. He looked towards the scenery of the reversed heaven and earth, and saw the knights and the kitsune's body start to emit traces of black smoke.

Especially the kitsune.

They were like gallons compared to the knights who were like cups. When their auras combined, it became a sea of impurity and repugnance.

An ugly hymn emerged from the sword. Its keen was like a crying child begging for death, it made everyone feel all sorts of negative emotions within their hearts. It created a distasteful memory in one's mind.

While some felt this when they sensed the aura, Yan Zaizen saw Pinaka's death.

"Roar!" He bellowed suddenly, causing the heavens and earth to tremble as he held the sword. "You dare influence my mind?!" Amber-gold lights was birthed from his eyes as his body erupted with heavenly might and soul energy that seemed perfect, paragon incarnate!

He clenched the sword and forced his aura into it, forcing it to withdraw its influencing traces. The black sea born from the auras of the kitsune and knights retreated like children that had just been punished by their parents and sent to their rooms.

The sword cried a keening cry, its ugly hymn resonated aloud in resistance, but Yan Zaizen only had a mocking gaze.

"Concede!" He fiercely demanded.

The sword in his hands cried more, as if it wanted to escape and leave this abusive relationship. However, Yan Zaizen only coldly laughed. This sword had a sentience and soul. It was the Heart of a Universe.

At first, he was unsure as to which one, but now he was certain.

It was the heart of the Non-Verse!

How spectacular!

"The heavens has balance, all things must have balance. If there is physicality, there must be spirituality. If there is life, death must be present. If there is eternity, then nothingness must exist! If there is purity, then there must be the impure." As these words were said, his mind entered a state of profundity beyond anything he had before.

The orb that was impure used by the Oneuli Empire's late prince was a fraction of this heart's power. The reason it could suppress his power and negate his senses.

In the world, there is something called matter. When a universe is created, both matter and antimatter exists. The polarization of existence was a fundamental requirement for all things. Regardless of its ratio, it is required.

As he held the sword, he now knew why the Non-Entity Physique he possessed regarded it as dangerous. Luckily, the current him had no fear.

He inspected the sword with his dao sense and his eyes flickered. "It's...there's a whole! What the?!" His eyes widened as his mind was in disbelief. When he looked at the sword, his heart quivered.
