Awakening：The Infinite Evolution of My Talent as a Low-Level Awakener

"It looks like the battle between the Kingdom of Orichalcum and the Ashen Temple is nearing a stalemate."

While lying down and resting, Sterl used the world map module of this realm to observe the ongoing battle between the two divine powers.

Although it seemed like he had been in Hell for a long time, in terms of the time in the main world, only two or three days had passed.

Since his departure, in addition to the divine beings who had descended from the Ashen Temple and the high-ranking divine authority dragon that had appeared on the Orichalcum Kingdom's side, several other high-ranking divine authorities had also arrived.

The total number of high-ranking divine authorities between the two factions had already surpassed ten.

It's important to note that these high-ranking divine authorities were not the weakened versions found in Hell; they were true high-ranking divine authorities who had reached the level of the Lord of Hell, and their power was not inferior to that of the Silver Moon Wolf God.

This struck Sterl as odd. The Orichalcum Kingdom and the Ashen Temple in the Alpha 8 world seemed to serve as mere earthly representatives of these divine powers. They were used to plunder resources and followers, while the real essence of these two divine factions lay within the Upper Realms.

Despite the fierce battle, both sides adhered to some kind of unwritten rule. The fighting between high-ranking divine authorities took place in layers of space, which prevented any unintended casualties among other gods or soldiers, and ensured that the aftermath wouldn't devastate the world.

Even so, the battle had escalated to a life-or-death situation, with no signs of either side backing down.

Especially after the Ashen Temple's divine being used some powerful method to forcefully kill one of Orichalcum Kingdom's high-ranking divine authorities, the situation reached a climax.

Over thirty divine beings had already perished in battle, and a large number of other gods and demigods from the Upper Realms had descended to join in this unprecedented divine war in the Alpha 8 world.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is really intense. But it's fine by me, it's saving me a lot of effort."

Sterl watched the scene with great interest. Right now, the entire Alpha 8 world, apart from the battlefields set up by the two factions, was unusually calm and peaceful.

One could say that, apart from the battlefield, this was the safest time in the Alpha 8 world.

After all, facing off against two divine powers, any beings with even a bit of strength would do everything they could to hide, too scared to show themselves for fear of being caught and used as target practice by these two colossal forces. Stay tuned for updates on My Virtual Library Empire

Sterl then checked the progress of the world fusion.

"The speed of the fusion is accelerating, and moreover..."

Sterl felt the裂缝 (裂缝 is an opening, rift, or crack in this context) above the world—the rift that had been forcibly opened, connecting the lower realm with the Upper Realms—and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Originally, the rift was healing gradually. Once the rift had completely healed, the suppression of the gods from the Upper Realms would once again be in place.

However, now, instead of healing, the rift was continuously expanding as the world fusion accelerated.

At this rate, the suppression of the Upper Realms gods would only grow weaker, and with the two realms coming closer together, it wouldn't be long before even powerful Divine Power-level entities might be able to descend into the lower realm.

The lower realm would be fully integrated with the Upper Realms, with the laws and rules of both realms intertwining. Space would become more stable, the world's energy would grow richer, and even the bottlenecks preventing advancement to higher levels would weaken considerably.

Of course, whether this is good or bad was impossible to say.

If the gods from the Upper Realms descended, the world's structure would surely be redefined. Before the entire world was unified, it was likely to fall into endless wars.

Besides, Sterl had not forgotten what he had seen from the Endless Void—the worlds that were being invaded by mysterious forces.

He suspected that the accelerated world fusion was possibly linked to that as well.

"But it's just When soldiers come, block them; when water comes, dam it."

He shook his head slightly. After so many battles with that mysterious force, after enduring so many assassination attempts, he had grown somewhat accustomed to it, so he didn't feel worried at all.

In any case, he was absolutely confident in his ability to handle things. With his rapid growth, even if that mysterious force came knocking, he was confident in his power to sweep through everything.

Now, all he needed to do was quietly wait for his weakened state to end, recover to his peak form, and then take care of wrapping up the final chapter of his legendary story!

"It'll be over soon... just wait for me..."

Sterl murmured to himself. Then, his consciousness gradually emptied, and he fell into a deep state of immersion.

It seemed like he was completely defenseless, but if any being dared to approach, they would instantly be shredded and destroyed by the Law Power surrounding him.

However, just the terrifying aura naturally emanating from his body was enough to deter even gods from approaching rashly—let alone in the current Alpha 8 world.

Previously, the Ashen Temple's forcible conscription of powerful beings had nearly drained the entire world's strength, so there was no need to worry about anything.

Time passed slowly, the sun and moon shifted quietly, and a new cycle began.

By the next day, Sterl slowly opened his eyes. His injuries had long since healed without a sound or trace.

The terrifying aura that had naturally emanated from his body was now fully retracted. At this moment, he looked like an ordinary mortal, without any sign of divinity. The only thing that remained extraordinary were his eyes, which seemed to contain a galaxy of stars, brilliant and mysterious.

"Ah... it's been a long time since I felt this good."

Sterl lazily stood up, exhaling a long breath. He stretched his body in place, feeling a warm and comfortable sensation spread throughout, utterly at ease.

His gaze swept across the land, taking in the view of a hundred-mile radius. He saw birds soaring freely in the sky, leisurely clouds drifting by, a gentle breeze, and the distant sound of a flowing river...

Breathing in the air filled with the scents of grass and flowers, he felt like his current state was better than ever, as if he had returned to his peak form.

He glanced at his attribute screen. Exactly one day had passed, and his weakened state had ended. All of his injuries and the expended energy had fully recovered to their perfect state.

Now, he had returned to a position where even gods seemed insignificant, and even high-ranking divine authorities could be dismissed with disdain.

Powerful. Domineering. Invincible!

"I just wonder how much longer the transformation of the small world will take..."

He sensed the small world, which was still in a chaotic state. Under the influence of a vast amount of matter and energy, the entire world seemed to be shoved into a gigantic melting pot, constantly fusing and reshaping…

As for the followers and various items he had absorbed into it, they were separated into a small space within the world to be stored.

If the small world could complete its transformation, his strength would definitely increase even further. But for now, his current power was more than enough.

"Let's test how the suppression of Hell's creatures by the main world works."

With his state fully restored, what he needed to do now was simple: unleash the Legion of Hell and sweep through the entire world, making sure the only voice left in the Alpha 8 world was his own!

He then focused his thoughts, and soon, within the small world, a Hell creature with legendary-level strength was pulled out.

It was a creature resembling a lizard, covered in scales that were like a turtle's shell. On top of its head, a pair of sharp horns grew, flickering with faint Thunder-like light.

The Hell creature, upon appearing, looked around in confusion before its gaze met Sterl's.

Immediately, the legendary-level creature shuddered violently, as if responding to some primal instinct. Its body instinctively curled up, and it began desperately bowing and prostrating itself before Sterl.

As a legendary being, it had no right to face Sterl directly. However, it had witnessed Sterl's overwhelming power before—not just seen it, but felt it deeply ingrained in its bones, something it could never forget.

Now, standing face to face with Sterl, this Executor of Hell, a terrifying existence before whom even the Lord of Hell had chosen to submit, the creature was nearly scared into unconsciousness.

Sterl, however, couldn't be bothered with it. To him, this legendary being was nothing more than a small pawn, unworthy of his attention.

He then activated both Star Insight and Soul Insight, quietly waiting.

But to his surprise, the world suppression that should have occurred didn't respond.

According to the records, even Hell creatures of the third-class level would fall under suppression upon entering the main world, and their powers would be significantly weakened.

Yet, the aura and strength of this legendary creature had not changed at all.

"Interesting."

A glimmer of anticipation and excitement appeared in Sterl's eyes. Could it be that with the fusion of the worlds and the reorganization of the rules, the barriers between the Upper Realms and the Lower Realm were gradually crumbling, and the suppression of Hell had disappeared?

This would be fantastic news for him.

Now that Hell had fused with his small world and had essentially disappeared, most of the Hell creatures had been transformed into soul energy by him. The rest had either been killed and devoured by the invaders, perished in the gray energy storm, or had been drawn into his small world for a slim chance of survival.

Thus, Hell had already ceased to exist, and as its final victor, he was now essentially the embodiment of Hell itself.

If Hell creatures were no longer subject to any suppression, then his plans would unfold even more perfectly.

With a slight thought, he pulled the legendary lizard back into the small world and released another Hell creature, one of demigod-level strength.

Just like the first one, it felt no suppression at all, and it seemed completely unaffected—its experience in this world was no different from being in Hell itself.

Sterl was thrilled and continued his tests.
