A white whirlwind manifesting above a heavenly body whose might surpassed even a Low World triggered a celebration that encompassed the entire Neo-Demon Realm!
Hundreds of thousands of Neo-Demons flew toward the star, and they all gazed at the white whirlwind with awe and respect.
Screens showing this event appeared in all the worlds in the realm, so every man, woman, and child who could not endure the power of the void could still see it. Adults explained to the children how important this event was, and their tiny eyes glowed as they heard what that whirlwind meant.
Ezequiel and Dante had planned for this from the moment they saw that Peak Tier 11 Star vanished inside a white whirlwind. The Neo-Demon Race recovered their Ancestor!
Zatiel Daybreak was a name engraved in every child's mind. Elders taught them that he embodied love, strength, honor, justice, friendship, camaraderie, basically all that was good in the universe.
However, during Zatiel's absence, millions of Neo-Demon had been born, and of them ever saw him in person, only watching the statues spread through every world in the realm.
Therefore, the Supreme Neo-Demon sought that everybody could see this moment, granting them an opportunity to see the Ancestor's might.
Ezequiel reached the Neo-Demon Realm's void a few hours after the white whirlwind appeared. On his shoulder, there was a little girl with black hair and a mischievous smile, and by his side, there was a woman with demonic wings and gentle eyes.
Unlike his previous slaughter and merciless aura that could suffocate entire worlds, the Supreme Neo-Demon smiled, and there was nothing but carelessness and serenity in his eyes.
Without Zatiel, Neo-Demons could only be born and not made, so if Ezequiel wanted to form a utopian universe, the only path was to erase the other races.
Now that Zatiel was back, there was no need to carry on such a brutal path.
The Supreme Neo-Demon spent the last few hundred years roaming the universe alongside Yami and Numir. Of course, he never stopped training and visited dozens of worlds invaded by evil races, killing all of them and liberating the original inhabitants.
Those battles helped him improve, but they were not like before, where he pushed himself into death doors every single day and never rested for even a minute.
Although it may seem that relaxing would affect Ezequiel's improvement, nothing could be further from the truth. Unwinding and letting your mind and body rest from time to time could do wonders for an individual's cultivation, especially if they went through a long period of immense stress.
Ezequiel's gaze focused on the immense obsidian heavenly body, and as it felt the power in it, his smile widened, and a fighting spirit filled his eyes.
However, as he analyzed the Peak Tier 12 Star, the Supreme Neo-Demon frowned, and some confusion appeared on his face.
"Is there a problem?" Numir spoke to Ezequiel when she saw his expression.
Ezequiel turned to Numir, and when he saw the concern in her face, tenderness appeared in his eyes, and he caressed her head.
"There is no problem. It's just that I felt something odd with that star, but I guess anything chosen by Master must be unique somehow. Come, let's join the celebration."
"Finally, you have a good idea. Chap, chap, I am bored already."
The one who broke the tender atmosphere between the duo was no other than Yami. Ezequiel and Numir were already used to the girl's behavior, so they only giggled and flashed forward.
As they flew, Yami glanced at the star, and a flash of reminiscence appeared in her eyes, but she said nothing.
...
The True Will, True Soul, and True Doomsday Body saw an obsidian marble appear in the white whirlwind inside Zatiel's right eyes, and they looked at each other before nodding.
Golden, blue, and black lights filled the Inner Law Dimension as the trio activated their wheels, and the next second they teleported.
A star's soul dimension should be an empty void limited by a spherical wall. So it was not weird that the trio showed confusion as they found themselves in a mountain range.
The True Will did not understand what was happening. When it came to soul attacks, the golden humanoid's resistance was the best of the trio, so he could not believe that this was an illusion.
He took a deep breath and extended his perception, but what he saw only confused him even more. This place was so large that he could not thoroughly scan it, making him believe that this dimension's size was equal to a Low Plane.

And to make things even weirder, he found life in it, both sentient and not. Some of them took humanoid form, others resembled beasts, and there were even insects.
"Who would have thought that the first ones I meet would be triplets. Similar and yet so different, interesting."
The eyes of the golden, blue and black humanoids widened when they heard those words, and they immediately looked for the origin.
At the peak of a mountain, not too far away from them, there was a mighty dragon with demonic characteristics looking at them with a small smile.
He was roughly eighty meters tall, with twelve wings, obsidian skin, and his body glowed with purple light.
The trio clenched their fists and adopted solemn expressions as they pushed their focus to the limit and stared at the demonic dragon.
It was impossible for the trio to have overlooked such a giant creature near them, so that meant the demonic dragon's power surpassed theirs for so much that they could not detect him until he allowed it.
Something else that made them feel weird was how the dragon looked at them. The Peak Tier 11 Star Consciousness was wise and very smart, but the feeling he showed them was the same as any other star's soul, hate alongside killing intent, but they felt nothing of the sort here.
"Aren't you a quiet bunch?" The demonic dragon spoke mockingly before turning to the True Doomsday Body.
"Oh, I did not know there was a Path of Power with Primordial Essence as its core that focused on the body in the Prima Universe. I wonder how you came to be?"
Killing intent exploded in the black and blue humanoids as they heard the demonic dragon. They could not help but feel threatened by the might and wisdom of their opponent.
However, before the True Soul and True Doomsday Body could do anything, the True Will gave them a sharp look, forcing them to control themselves.
The golden humanoid was the trio's leader, and they did not dare to go against him during a battle. Seeing that the other two calmed, he focused on the demonic dragon and took a step forward.
"Who are you?" Those were the first words the True Will ever uttered.
"Oh, not so quiet anymore." The mocking tone of the demonic dragon grew stronger when he spoke the following words. "Isn't obvious. I am a Star Consciousness."
"I meant before that. I don't know how you arrived at this place, but you are not a mere Star Consciousness. I guess that you devoured the star's original soul and took their place." The True Will immediately rebuked the demonic dragon and spoke confidently.
Surprise appeared in the True Soul and True Doomsday Body when they heard that. What the True Will speculated should not be possible, as the Incarnation of Death and Destruction picked the stars in the Neo-Demon Realm, and there was nothing that could hide from him.
Nevertheless, there was no way for a Peak Tier 12 Star's soul dimension to be like this or that the Star Consciousness power would surpass theirs by so much.
"Hahahaha, what a clever little fellow you are." The demonic dragon laughed for a moment before standing up, showing his mighty figure to the trio. He stared at the sky as sadness appeared in his eyes.
"I indeed devoured the little mouse that inhabited this place before, using him to grow stronger, but after doing so, I found myself trapped here. I can not recall how I reached this place, but I remember some things about my home, and this universe is not it."
The second the True Soul and True Doomsday Body heard the last part, they exploded with a killing intent much greater than before, and this time the True Will joined them.
"Eldritch!?"
Seeing the killing intent in the trio did not bother the demonic dragon. On the contrary, it made him smile.
"I don't recall the Eldritch Race, but I felt disgusted just by hearing that word. My race was born alongside the stars and worlds. We were the first to appear after the Epoch Explosion."
Pride and dignity filled the demonic dragon's eyes as three silver stars materialized around his head like a crown.
"I am part of the strongest race, the Primordial Race!"
