The Emperor's eyes were like a flaming war hammer, and the pale flames flowing from his body were like red-hot anvils, pounding and hitting Aaron's reason again and again, making him bend his waist in pain, he breathed greedily, trying to draw some cold air from the cold endless void, he felt that his flesh was being cut repeatedly by a thousand blunt knives, his flesh was being dismembered, his soul activity was engulfed by the Emperor's cold eyes, the white fire ignited in his body was more than just giving him strength, It's destroying him.

Suddenly, Aaron turned into a sensitive ball of flesh again, rolling in the sea of knives and fire, and any touch would cause a heart-rending burning sensation.

Waterfall sweat flowed down Aaron's forehead like water, and the light of the Golden Law could not replace the pain he endured, his waist bent even more, like a boiled crayfish swirling in the void, at first his throat was still trying to grunt to indicate that he was in pain, and in the end, Aaron didn't even have the strength to hum.

The emperor opposite him was always indifferent, indifferent to Aaron's pain, on the contrary, the emperor himself was suffering in an indescribable way.

The difference is that the emperor has long been used to it, while Aaron has experienced too little.

"So, so painful......" Aaron breathlessly said, "Your Majesty...... You ......."

"It's not as painful as Machado felt on the Golden Throne." The Emperor remained aloof throughout, only the twitching muscles of his face and his hands that trembled from time to time indicated that the Lord of Humanity was suffering from similar pain: "Pull, hold on!"

"I'll ...... Hold on!"

In the face of our ashes, noble people will shed tears.

Aaron gasped vigorously, "Your Majesty can, and I will definitely be able to!"

The emperor nodded, the six-meter-tall little Asian black-haired Indo-European golden man clenched his fists, he looked at Aaron, his gaze seemed to engulf Aaron, even if he swirled in the void in pain, Aaron could still feel the power contained in the emperor's eyes, he stared at Aaron, waiting, watching, looking forward to.

What is the emperor waiting for? Is it the moment when Aaron takes over the authority of the Dark Lord and frees him from his shackles? Is it to bear the departure of a former best friend and the failure of a 10,000-year grand plan? Or are you ready to witness the fusion of the Golden Law and the Death of Destiny, the moment when a new prototype of the Chaos God rises in front of him?

Aaron didn't know, he just knew that he was in pain.

The white flames began to erode into the core area of his body, and the bone-eating pain made Aaron feel that his world was darkening, and the colorful starry universe gradually became a black and white dot matrix and silk thread, each dot and each line represented the connection between affairs, which was the origin of the Golden Law.

He saw the universe as it is.

Then he saw more: above the point of every thing, there are lethal "dead points" and "dead lines", and the power of the white flame will give every living creature the concept of "death" through the dead points and dead lines, and from the root, obliterate.

One another, and many more, new worlds entered Aaron's mind, and the white flames burned his heart, vaporized his blood, and ran down his throat into his brain.

Destroy first, then regroup.

The Emperor's teachings continued, and by this time, the pale Emperor's side had flickered and darkened, and the Emperor could no longer hide his pain, his features crumpled together, black and white blood flowing from his nostrils, and a staccato sound coming from his throat.

"Your Majesty! I can!" Aaron howled bitterly with the last of his voice.

"It's ...... Okay." The Emperor's right hand clenched tightly, and with the gradual weakening of the white light, this painful ritual began to fall silent, and the power to maintain the Pale Emperor's origin was transferred to Aaron's body, and the long-lost humanity that had been suppressed for thousands of years began to return.

In the throne room of the Holy Terra Palace, the path to humanity's destiny was now only the bare sorcery salt of the Golden Throne, and a new power suddenly emerged from the shriveled corpse.

It seemed to be just an illusion, and the dungeon of the palace only flickered for a moment before falling into darkness again.

But things began to change, and the Golden Law Ring began to appear on the wall of the network that had been destroyed by the stupid Thousand Sons Primordial Magnus using psionic teleportation, and its power began to repair the broken breach at an extremely slow angle.

The emperor's answer was calm and contented.

"It's worth it."

This sentence fell on Aaron's ears, like a thunderbolt in the sky, he agreed to this deal before, just because of the emperor's grace and the power sent to the door in vain, he himself has made countless enemies in the multiverse, it is naturally better to have the power of white flames, if there is more, it is to be moved by the emperor's true "great love".

At this time, he suddenly heard this sentence "It is worth it", and Aaron realized why Machado would voluntarily sit on the throne, why those countless heroes who sang and cried in the era of the Great Expedition appeared for the sake of ideals, why the emperor would sit on the golden throne and endure thousands of years of torture, and why the dark angel always emphasized that "loyalty itself is the best reward for loyalty".

Because "it's worth it."

Alone, only the white flames were burning his body.

There was silence, except for the rapid breathing that stimulated his senses.

Before Aaron was completely reduced to ashes in the white flames, a golden figure burst out of his old shell.

"Welcome back, pull."

In the void of the Endless Ladder, the reborn Aaron and the Emperor paced together in the light flow of the galaxy.

"I've condensed a small portion of my white flame into the Source Seed and sealed it in your body, in your right eye, and you can summon its power whenever you need to use it...... However, the kingdom has its own laws, and if you want to replicate the power I once slain Horus in a duel, you need to integrate it into the logic of the kingdom itself." The Emperor paused: "That is, the divinity and priesthood of death, Ebud, Tsavlock, Aemon, Baal, Shirek."

"There is still a significant gap between your strength and the Quansheng Primordials, use the White Flame Source Seed I gave you reasonably, and let it grow with you."

"I'm already doing it." Aaron nodded, and he stretched out his fingertips, and the white flames flowed down his fingers, containing the power of destruction and "nothingness", which came from the end of the universe, symbolizing the ultimate darkness.

"You also need to be aware of one thing, the power of the White Flame is not under the control of the four gods or theirs, so they will not have any other thoughts about you gaining this power, but...... There are other possibilities that the Ascenders will try to kill you and take your power, such as ...... Horus who is already dead, such as the primordial demon prince Birac, such as the war commander Abaddon, and then ......"

"Generalissimo of the Chaos Apocalypse, Archaun." Aaron interface.

"You're going to face them yourself," the Emperor interrupted, his thoughts drifting into the void around him. "But there's always going to be someone to take the challenger's place, and I've foreseen that. That's pretty much the law of the world. When an enemy falls, a new one emerges, learning from Horus's experience and lessons, and then coming back."

"I will use the power of Draconion to cut off cause and effect and control reincarnation." Aaron is confident in this: "I am the Lord of Samsara."

"That's why I sent you here, pull, good luck." The Emperor's figure faded away, and he was silent for a moment before disappearing, and then added, "If you can, help me deal with the smuggled Petrabo and Loga, and if you can, don't kill them, send them to me."

"Lorga must be happy to die." Aaron squeezed out a mocking expression: "The truth, only he understands the truth!"

"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth." The Emperor cast his gaze to the end of the Great Wheel Universe Void around the Endless Ladder: "Now, truth has become falsehood, and lies have become truth."

"I'm not God, Ra, you are."

…………

The emperor left.

Aaron returned to the Endless Ladder, and the empty universe around him was filled with only echoes of nothingness.

The silver spiral staircase has neither railings nor directional signs, but only stairs leading to the upper and lower planes and the surrounding planes, many of which extend 10,000 meters away

At the end of these stairs there is a portal that leads to other worlds in other planes.

The staircase in front of the portal is occasionally decorated, such as ivy dotted with fine sand hanging in front of a portal, and some portals are damp and cracked.

No one can understand all the mysteries of the Endless Ladder, not even the gods, but some of the natives know it very well.

Yes, there are actually many creatures living on the Endless Ladder, and there are even many merchants and adventurers who sell weapons and equipment, magic items, food and drinks in the Endless Ladder, and it is said that sometimes you can see penguin people trading in various planes of the multiverse, and their treasures may have the power to shake the order of the entire multiverse.

In addition to this, wandering demon gods, wild animals, lost travelers, adventure parties to other worlds, and creatures from the outer planes will also be occasionally encountered in the Endless Ladder.

For example, the Emperor, for example, the eccentric team that went to save Waukin?

Unfortunately and fortunately, Aaron didn't have to spend a lot of time climbing ladders, and the gate to hell was not far away.

So, it's time to get started!

It took Aaron about 20 minutes to get to the gates of hell, he took a deep breath and leaned his body into the portal.

咻 ~ 咻咻 ~

The moment Aaron stepped out of the portal, he felt that his eardrums were about to burst, and the noise on his face made his eyes dizzy, his scalp tingled, and he instantly transitioned from the endless silent cosmic void to the lively first layer of hell, and the contrast made Aaron very uncomfortable.

He began to understand a little why Shar hated Suren so much.

Looking up, Aaron found himself standing on a crimson hillside, the smell of sulfur and tar almost making him feel like he was back in his old life, and in the distance, the whole world was struggling in the heat, the wind crawling through the broken earth, the sky without white clouds, and the lifeless earth leaving no shade for the traveler.

Aphurnas arrived.

Beneath the ugly clouds of the dim sky, every now and then a meteor streaks across and falls to the ground.

The endless horizon is constantly diffused with ambient light sources, as if illuminated by nine sunsets, but there are no actual celestial objects in the sky—no sun, no moon or stars, only twilight in the sky, making it impossible to determine the passage of time.

The atmosphere was filled with the stench of brimstone and burning tar, and the scorching winds blew through the hell, whistling and washing over the land below. Sometimes these winds whare up huge sandstorms that can even peel off the flesh on the bones and plunge everything into darkness.

Biting mosquito flies, swarms of yellow springs, and blood-sucking mosquitoes patrol the skies, looking for any source of blood to feast on.

Swarms can be large enough to obscure the sky, wings vibrate enough to burst eardrums, and in the distance, thousands of bloated demons—blind, swollen, outcast, cursed—roam like groaning lakes of flesh in search of food.

The ground erupted from time to time, and the coldness and murderous intent that emerged from it made Aaron almost think that this was a demonic realm of terror, but unlike the apophobic iron fire castle and brass forge, the buildings located here are all known for their extreme order and defense, and hundreds of gray fortresses made of stone and plastic steel are witnessing the continuation of endless bloody battles, this war of order and chaos in the multiverse will never see an end.

Blunt, brutal, but indestructible.

Rows of turrets and minarets stood on the red plains, and under the command of the mid-tier devils, the little devils worked hard, trading their lives and work to the death for a small and insignificant right to live, and for the eternal bloody war, the death that occurred every day in Aphnas was only an insignificant part of life here.

Steel, fire, faith!

Aaron playfully discovered a truth - this is not so much like a sadistic realm as it is more like the imperial palace in the Great Horus Rebellion, in the overtime construction of the castle fetish Archduke Dorne, every area that the devil can still control is reshaped into a fortress in layers of armament, Aaron can hear the never-ending

The sound of hammers and cutting stones, he could smell the dust raised and the exhaust fumes of the devil's factory, which were at work in the never-ending daylight he had made for them.

All for the eternal bloody battle!

That's right, this is the front line of the never-ending battle of chaos and order in the multiverse, the first layer of hell, Aphnanth!

Aaron recalls what Ilminster and Morgan have taught him that Aphernas has not always been in the devastated land of war.

According to Ilminster's book, long ago, Aphernas was created by Asmodeirs to tempt mortals to fall, and the Lord of the Nine Hells himself created patches of idyllic beauty and luxurious gardens to show the multiverse that we can have their own paradise in Bato Hell!

But the endless waves of demonic waves invaded by the River Styx have destroyed this paradise, leaving behind only layers of bones, ruins, and war machines.

Fragments of cities stolen from other planes of Hell, remnants of Aphernas' past, the remains of defeated Celestial Legions, and the graves of countless ancient travelers litter the wasteland of Aphernas.

Aaron had already seen a group of Batzu Devils and a small group of Tanari Demons fighting not far away, and he instinctively wanted to use his strength, and at this moment, a strong sense of confusion and a heavy sense of oppression quickly attacked!

Dimensional Suppression!

Nine Hells doesn't like Aaron and the aura of chaos on him! The plane began to instinctively reject Aaron's presence, and it retaliated with malice towards Aaron's presence and tried to expel him.

"Aaron!"

Just then, a voice not far away called Aaron.

The bald singer and his party arrived quickly, and Nestiana immediately grabbed Aaron by the sleeve and led him behind a hill.

"What's going on? Where have you been? We've been waiting for you for a long time." Sister Darkspirit was visibly uncomfortable too, and she shoved an amethyst ring into Aaron's palm, "Quick, wearing this will make you feel better."

"Hey, hey, hey~ I didn't expect it, I'm back again, hell, Aphernas, eternal blood!" Samir stretched his back with difficulty, and the sorcerer and Chaos Warrior looked pale, apparently the worst in Hell for the Mixed Forces: "Well, I feel bad......

Annom nodded to Aaron, he didn't speak, but he could feel from his face that he was just as uncomfortable.

"Wait a minute, the convoy I've contacted will take some time to arrive." The bald singer Morgan had a comfortable expression on his face, and he played with the ring in his hand: "Remember, we are here to do business in Avernas."

"I thought you had everything ready." Aaron put the amethyst ring on his finger and immediately felt the repulsion of the plane become much lighter.

"*** Zareel." Morgan was angry when he said this: "I didn't need to be so troublesome in the first place."

"While Bair was still there, Aphneras was free to pass except for a few main battlefields, except for that crazy woman, who was full of wars and wars, delaying our business!"

"Can Zariel get out of Aphernas with her fortress?"

"All of us Hell Merchants are looking forward to the return of Lord Bail."
