Epos suddenly found himself unable to move.
He tried with all his might, making the spatial fabrics groan under his cosmic power, but they bound him even more tightly.
"What! What have you done?" he shouted toward Neo angrily.
Neo smirked. "Oh nothing. Just a regular old trick of mine!"
But of course, that was just a blatant lie. He did not just manipulate the space, he locked down the Void too.
Neo raised his left hand and, the fabric of space around the escaping Dominator instantly froze solid.
The glowing spatial wormhole, which was supposed to carry Epos to safety, shattered like cheap glass.
Epos was left suspended in the cold vacuum of space, completely paralyzed by an overwhelming cosmic pressure.
Before Epos could try another escape method, Neo teleported directly in front of him.
Then he reached out his armored hand and ruthlessly grabbed Epos by the throat.
"Did you really think you can get away that easily after threatening my empire? How naive!" Neo mocked coldly, forcefully dragging the struggling Dominator out of the shattered spatial rift.
With horror clawing in his heart, Epos desperately clawed at Neo’s glowing gauntlet.
He evem tried to summon his celestial light, but the absolute suppression of the void made him completely powerless.
He realised the painful truth. He couldn’t escape. Not from this monster at least.
So he decided to beg.
"Mercy! I surrender! I will give you everything!"
But Neo’s reply shattered all hope he was clinging to.
"I do not need your surrender, Epos.
I need your absolute obedience."
Crack!
With a swift, brutal twist of his wrist, Neo snapped the Rank 500th Dominator’s neck.
Within seconds, he lost all signs of life. Even all the celestial light began to drift away. freewёbnoνel.com
However, Neo was not finished yet.
His hand around the neck began to emit an eerie purple energy that sipped inside Epos’ body.. ƒrēewebnovel.com
"Awaken, My Supreme Death Knight!"
[ System Notice: Legendary Talent ’Necromancy’ Activated. ]
[ Target: Deceased Dominator (Epos) ]
[ Commencing Soul Binding... ]
As the notifications flashed,
Epos’s dead and lifeless eyes suddenly snapped wide open.
They now glowed with an eerie crimson light.
Crack! Crack!
Next, his shattered neck forcefully realigned itself, and them his torn flesh rapidly stitched back together under the dark necromantic magic.
[ Resurrection Successful: Epos has been transformed into a Supreme Death Knight. ]
[ Rank: Legend (Rank 4) ]
[ Loyalty: 100%. ]
The undead Dominator slowly drifted backward, fully alive and aware.
The next thing it did was lowering his large body and bowed his head in unquestioning submission before the man who had just killed him.
"I await your command, Supremacy."
Its voice was now hollow and deep.
Any ordinary man would have pissed themselves after hearing it.
But Neo smiled and looked at the vast cosmic graveyard of the destroyed Spider Expanse armada.
The remnants of the Spider Expanse armada had still not given up.
If it continued like this, it would be a great loss for Neo, since he had long decided to take them in.
"Go, Epos. Tell them to surrender. We will show mercy to those who are cooperative."
Epos bowed and went to do as he said.
Neo just watched.
Soon, notifications followed suit.
[ Congratulations! Mass Surrender Detected. ]
[ Integrating 3.8 Million subjects into the Zenith Empire. ]
[ Total Subjects: 4.3 Million ]
[ You have indirectly conquered 10 Life Planets. ]
[ Congratulations! Your Dominator Rank has increased to Count. ]
[ New Benefits: Flag of Distinction ]
[ Description: Bearing the symbol of a white dragon, wherever you go, this specially crafted flag follows you. It can provide up to a 500% boost in the overall power of your entire army. This depends on the Faith Energy you possess as their emperor. ]
[ Next Requirement (Marquis): 50 Life Planets + 200 Million Subjects ]
"A Count, huh... Not bad. And this flag sounds very useful. I should use it in the next battle," Neo muttered thoughtfully.
Next, Neo gave a secret signal to the Dark Mage Commander, Nyxaris.
Nyxaris had been in charge of delivering the corpses to his secret location last time. No one knew what he did with them, except Noir and Nyx.
Nyx nodded in response, then began collecting the corpses.
After an hour, Neo was standing amongst a mountain of corpses in the same underground facility where he had last gone through Mass Synthesis.
This time would be no different.
On the contrary, this time, the corpses were of much higher ranks (about Type 7 to Type 6). So, the rich essence of all 120,000 Beyonders could not even be imagined.
He would become a Legend Rank (Type 4) in no time, even though his true prowess already surpassed that level.
Otherwise, why else would he be able to defeat Epos so easily?
He raised his hands and activated [ Universal Synthesis ].
Buzzz!
A blinding golden light erupted from Neo’s hands, rapidly expanding to envelop the massive mountain of 120,000 beyonder corpses.
Humm!
The entire underground facility trembled violently beneath his feet as his supreme talent took hold of the room.
Just like last time, the high ranking bodies of the elite soldiers dissolved. Their flesh, bones, and cosmic armor melted down into a massive, swirling vortex of pure life essence.
[ System Notice: Commencing Mass Synthesis... ]
[ Target: 120,000x Type 7 to Type 6 Beyonder Corpses ]
[ Synthesizing pure cosmic essence. ]
Neo stood at the very epicenter of the vortex. The unimaginably dense energy funneled directly into his chest.

[ Endurance +30 ]
[ Reaction Speed +21 ]
[ Strength +21 ]
[ Agility +22 ]

Cosmic Force: +300, +320, +280, +270, +125....
The notifications were endless.
He just gritted his teeth as a terrifying wave of heat washed through his veins. Every single cell in his body was being forcefully shattered and instantly rebuilt, completely evolving to contain a monstrous level of raw power.
[ Synthesis Progress: 40%... 50%... 60%... ]
[ Supreme Quantities of Beyonder Essence absorbed. ]
