Abrasax Leviathan-Lucifer, son of the Emperor of the Chthonian Empire of the Baator, current Crown Prince, and also someone who inherited 4 Clan Traits. Descendant of the Imperial House Lucifer and Chthonian High Lord House Leviathan.
While he was already 2,500 years, he was still stuck at the Super Devil Law Baptism, but his combat prowess was far outclassing many Warlock Monarchs of the Warlock world due to his terrifying high combat prowess.
"This is the second time that I have entered Grade 1 Plane, though this Subcontinent's magicule density is too poor."
Complained Abrasax as several Custodians emerged from the Astral Gate, all on the Super Devil Level. All of them were on either Satan-Class or Super Devil Class, and several of them were already on the Apocalypse-Class. During 2,500 years, Custodians underwent the most tremendous change among all Military Forces of the Chthonian Empire.
From the Baator, Abrasax brought him ten Custodians on Super Devil Level and fifty on the Satan-Class. This power was enough to conquer half of the surface world of the Cangzhi Plane, but that would be a foolish thing to do.
As a direct descendant of the Imperial House and line of the Ancestor Zeoticus Gremory-Lucifer, he had access to very sensitive information. He knew that Canghzi Plane was dangerous as fuck. The Core World of the Canghzi Plane was extremely dangerous for the current strength of the Chthonian Empire.
So, basically, without at least one Tier 11 Powerhouse, it was too dangerous to make big moves in the Canghzi Plane, which had currently 6 Warlock Emperors in it, as Golem Emperor was deceased. Dawn Lord, who was Emperor of the Dawn Dynasty, was also killed, but he had God Avatar. Hence, he basically switched to God Path, which caused the remaining Warlock Imperial Courts to have a great deal of hatred for anyone associated with the Dawn Dynasty.
Soon more people emerged from the Astral Gate; many were members of the Execution Temple and Mechanicum, while some were members of the Magisteriums. Their task was to create a permanent foothold in the Canghzi Plane.
Even though it was dangerous, Abrasax was aware that many of the higher-ups of the Empire were convinced that since the Core World is still sealed, and unless they made something stupid and didn't alert those strong Great Holies, their presence would be overlooked, and they could siphon resources from the Canghzi Plane to the Baator.
Why Baator's foundation couldn't be compared to that of Warlock Imperial Courts, but it had grown too fast within just 2,500 years, mainly due to them siphoning resources from various planes, especially those lower ranked and other Universes.
Devils of Baator were extremely cunning; they purposely avoided all Primary Grade 2 Planes and specifically targetted weaker planes, maximally those where there were only strongest beings comparable to Mighty Stage God or Warlock Monarchs.
Planes like Feisuo Plane, even though they had only a few Mighty Stage Gods, were left out because there should be many of such gods sleeping; if not, they would have been conquered by Arcanists or Warlock long ago for resources.
But thanks to that, the power of Baator slowly grew, as compared to Warlocks, Arcanists, and Devils didn't require such a high amount of cultivation resources, which made their needs much smaller. For example, suppose you calculate the number of resources to reach Infinity Warlock Realm. In that case, five to seven devils could reach Super Devil Class with the same amount.
They cultivated countless powerhouses on the level of Super Devil, many on the level of Apocalypse-Class, and several Dimensional-Class powerhouses.
And now, it was time to target the first league. Primary Grade 2 Planes and Canghzi Plane as it was single not unified Grade 1 Plane among discovered Grade 1 Planes.
Abrasax took out a small red pill from his spatial storage and threw it to Orion Kadred.
"Here is your payment."
The Soul Baptism Pill allowed one to increase Soul Aptitude to a higher level without any kind of side effects. It was very effective and appropriate as payment for allowing Baator to the Canghzi Plane.
While to Warlocks, it seemed like a peerless treasure, to Chthonian Empire, it wasn't, mainly due to their trade with the Celestial Court of the Ancient Dao Universe.
"Immediately seal all entrances to the Underground World with our most powerful sealing wards and add protective Arcanotech."
Abrasax ordered for the magicians of the group and some members of the Mechanicum.
"Custodians will go and subjugate all native races. Those who will join give them Blood and Soul Void-Geass. Those who do not exterminate to the last one. Hellions are to be put down at sight."
Ordered Abrasax as everyone went to carry out their orders.
Hellions were experiments that were created during the time of the Taboo Dynasty by the research of the Taboo Emperor in collaboration with several Arcanists that studied this topic. They were creatures created for a single purpose, and that was destruction.
After some time, they created even Holy Spirit Warlock ranked Hellions and even three Hellions on the level of Great Holy.
"Secure the entire layer, and continue until the third layer. The fourth one... leave it be for now."
