As time went by, space around Haru's body distorted. Within ten thousand kilometers, an independent Space-Time field formed, completely isolated from the outside world. Finally, the Space-Time Divine Power overflowing from Haru's body gradually recovered.
Haru opened his eyes, "I succeeded! From now on, I'm a 'Lord of Space-Time'!"
He looked at the independent Space-Time around him—naturally derived from the Divine Power emanating from his body. He could easily distort space, adjust time flow rate, and forcibly create Space-Time seals at will.
"With my current strength, suppressing Micteya seems extremely easy! Once I completely unleash my Divine Power, it'll be comparable to a late-stage Supreme God like Malakar!"
Haru was very satisfied. He waved his right hand and the independent Space-Time field disappeared. Today, he could claim to be one of the strongest beings in the Endless Continent. No enemy could now threaten his life as even if a huge group of Supreme Gods surrounded him, he could easily escape. As for wanting to 'trap' him with a Space-Time seal… isn't that like trying to kill a fish by drowning it in water?
…
"Congratulations, my Lord!" Celestia and Yvonne excitedly teleported near Haru.
Haru smiled and turned his attention towards the Imperial Army. His gaze directly crossed millions of kilometers, and he saw his troops slaughtering the demons. For the several hours it took for him to ascend and fuse the two laws, his troops have eliminated two entire Demonic Legions.
He also realized that his 750,000-strong Elite Imperial Army didn't have any more Saints and Kings. Even the weakest among them were Demigods and there were almost 50,000 Gods, most of whom were Angels.
This was also normal as the growth potential of Angels was very high, far exceeding any other top-level troops. Under Haru's command, there were about 180,000 Angels and seeing tens of thousands of them becoming Gods after destroying the demonic legions seemed quite normal.
"For now, my empire is easily comparable to Pantheons like the Death Pantheon. The Gods of Death under Micteya's command are also only tens of thousands. I just need more Intermediate and High Gods for the Great Aetherium to become a top-tier force even without us three Supreme Gods!"
"The tournament is far from over. There are still numerous Demons in the second and third layer. After killing them all, more such Gods would ascend further! It won't take long, the numbers will catch up with those ancient Pantheons!"
…
Just then, Haru sensed numerous auras—Castle Lords, their troops and Rangers—poured into the second layer from the first. Even less than a few hundred kilometers to his right were millions of creatures. These guys have wiped out the demonized creatures from the first layer and finally decided to step into the second layer.
"Slay the demons!"
"I'm the hero who shall save this dying planet!"
"Bruh, you're a mere Saint. Even the weakest Demons here are Demigods. You'd get cooked before you even realize what happened…"
"That bastard Adam set me up! He said that the second layer only houses newborn Demons while the third layer is where the stronger ones reside! He must be eyeing my pretty Cat-girl troops! My dear Cat-girls, your hero is coming to save you from that evil villain!"
"Hahaha!"
The self-proclaimed 'hero' immediately used the teleportation mark, returning to the Endless Continent and the others nearby started laughing. But this little comedic scene quickly stopped when they heard the deafening screams of slaughter coming from hundreds of kilometers away. There were no demons around as they were all slaughtered by the Imperial Army.
"That must be Lord Haru's Imperial Army! Let's speed up and visit the other areas, lest it be too late for us to even get a few lone demons to slay!"
Suddenly a newly ascended God turned left and said, "Wait, I sensed three extremely terrifying auras! It must be Lord Haru!"
Thousands of figures ripped apart space and appeared near Haru. These were all newly ascended Gods—Castle Lords, their troops, and Rangers. Seeing Haru, they became extremely excited.
"That's the rumored Eighteen-Winged Seraphim—Lady Celestia!"
"There's another one with eighteen wings, but strange—all her wings are ethereal. She should be the second Supreme Goddess!"
"Look, Lord Haru is also a Supreme God now! What terrifying divine power! Just being near him is enough to make my legs tremble!"
The daring Castle Lords and Rangers came to Haru and bowed respectfully. Although it would've been weird back on Earth, these people have begun to integrate into the culture of Endless Continent.
Had they not bowed, they feared that even if Haru didn't take offense, those two Angels would've killed them. After all, Angels were famous for being extremely sensitive for anything they perceive as disrespectful towards their Lord!
