Chapter 663: Pseudo-Plane Mastery

Meanwhile, Marcus, who was fighting an apex dark beast, laughed maniacally.
"Hahaha, At Last! After a long wait, it finally appeared!"
Regardless of the pressure, Marcus quickly flew toward the Primal Dark Beast.
All the Absolutes in the other areas also put down their work and began converging on the Primal Dark Beast.
They needed to quickly kill this threat before it could form a group.
Dark beasts are hierarchical. Starting from an Apex Dark Beast, they could gather a group of subordinates to boost their power.
Just imagining the Primal Dark Beast gathering tens of thousands of Apex Dark Beasts and countless others, they couldn’t help but shudder.
Once a Primal Dark Beast formed such a group, its power could rival an Overlord’s.
Wanting to watch the fight, Maximus urged Liam to control the stronghold.
"How could we miss out on such fun?" Maximus smiled.
With the Orbital Plane Blaster, he also had the ability to kill the Primal Dark Beast.
Still, wanting to ensure their safety, Maximus brought the entire stronghold along.
Who knew if he was jinxed and the Primal Dark Beast suddenly evolved into a tier-12 dark beast?
Although such an evolution was impossible, it was better to be careful.
Soon after arriving at the battlefield, they saw Marcus taking on the Primal Dark Beast alone.
"Don’t come any closer," Reed warned when he saw the stronghold approaching.
Although he knew the stronghold was impenetrable and that Maximus was strong, he didn’t want any problems to arise.
This man was his hope for advancing to the Overlord realm.
"Why aren’t you helping Grandpa Marcus?" Lyla asked.
Calling Malgron "Uncle," they naturally called Marcus "Grandpa."
"Master probably wants to fight alone," Malgron quickly replied, knowing his master’s nature.
"Marcus should be able to handle this on his own," Reed also agreed.
Being the strongest Absolute wasn’t just for show.
When it came to a fight, Marcus could even last for a while against an Overlord.
"He is indeed strong..." Maximus muttered in amazement.
Watching Marcus fight a Primal Dark Beast was like observing art.
Such exquisite fighting skills, control, and precision.
Maximus estimated that Marcus might have touched the realm of plane-level mastery.
Although it was just scratching the surface, it was enough to shock him.
Whether it was plane-level ability or plane-level mastery, it was beyond the capabilities of the Aeon Plane.
From Zar to Marcus, producing individuals close to possessing such plane-level abilities made the Aeon Plane seem like a veritable blessed land.
Watching the fight, Maximus held back from using the Orbital Plane Blaster.
Disturbing such a battle would be a blaspheme and a waste of opportunity.
Urging his Path of Law, he began to record the fight, planning to use it for future reference.

Soon, the fight went on for days.
Being suppressed in strength, Marcus compensated with his abilities, slowly wearing the beast down.
"Not strong enough…" Marcus frowned, looking at the helpless Dark Beast.
What he wanted was a hearty fight—a battle that would make his blood boil.
Unlike others who wanted to advance traditionally, Marcus planned to advance through combat.
Pushing his abilities to the extreme, he wanted to reach the Overlord realm by fighting.
Looking at the chaotic miasma carried by the Dark Beast, an idea suddenly struck Marcus.
"What if…?"
As the Absolute of Chaos, he should be able to control this wild and untamed chaotic miasma.
However, as he tried, it felt like lifting an immovable earth.
No matter what he did, it remained static.
"I’m the Absolute of Chaos! How could I fail to control mere chaotic miasma?!"
Roaring in anger, Marcus vented his frustration on the Primal Dark Beast while still attempting to control the immovable energy.
Meanwhile, watching Marcus’s attempts, the others could only shake their heads.
"Controlling chaotic miasma?"
This chaotic miasma came from outside the Aeon Plane—from the chaotic void.
Although limited by their cognition, they still knew that even an Overlord couldn’t control such a high level of energy.
However, Maximus, seeing Marcus’s attempt, couldn’t help but smile in interest.
Having deeply studied the chaotic miasma, he noticed something different in Marcus’s attempt.
If others couldn’t even touch or interfere with the chaotic miasma, Marcus simply lacked the power to lift it.
"It’s because it has the same property," Maximus quickly deduced thought.
Although the origin of chaos and the chaotic miasma came from different magnitudes, they shared the same fundamental property: chaos.
Given enough strength, Marcus should be able to control this chaotic miasma suppressing the world.
Amazed by his findings, Maximus quickly wanted to return to the laboratory.
Cultivating all the laws, although he wasn’t as strong as Marcus, he could still use the origin of chaos.
Running some experiments and tests should be feasible.
However, seeing the ongoing fight, Maximus stayed, dutifully recording the battle.
The Absolutes also began to move, clearing the dark beasts one after another, preventing them from gathering in large numbers.
---
Soon, days, months, and years passed, and Marcus finally killed the Primal Dark Beast.
"Finally, it’s over!"
"We won!"
"The Absolute of Chaos is powerful!"
"Huh! Amazing fight!"
Not blinking, they watched the entire battle with great relish.
Unfortunately, just before they could celebrate, they felt another suffocating aura descend into the Dark Void Domain.
What’s worse was that it wasn’t just one—but three.
"Three Primal Beasts? It seems those Overlords are getting serious," Marcus muttered.
Knowing the plan, he wasn’t surprised that more Primal Dark Beasts had appeared.
As they killed one Primal Dark Beast after another, their numbers would continue to increase until the Dark Beast wave subsided.
"I’ll take one; you handle the rest," Marcus ordered, flying toward the closest Primal Dark Beast.
"Then we’ll take the other two," Reed said, splitting the group.
"What about us?" Malgron asked, feeling left out.
Although he knew he couldn’t beat a Primal Dark Beast, he still wanted to join the fun.
"Are you kidding me? Stay here and protect the stronghold," Reed warned speechlessly just before leaving.
Fighting a Primal Dark Beast was for the Absolutes, not for these budding talents.
"This…"
Watching the Absolutes leave one after another, Malgron could only sigh.
"Don’t worry. When they can’t handle it later, we’ll come to the rescue," Maximus said, patting his shoulder, waiting for more Primal Dark Beasts to descend.
