1 Month Later, Feisuo Plane
After one month, basically, every opposition in the Feisuo Plane was quelled, and right now, we have controlled the entire Feisuo Plane. All hostiles were dealt with, and mortals were of no threat to the might of the Chthonian Empire of the Baator.
I sent Taboo Bead, Taboo Text a Chaos Imperishable Bead back to the Empire so Ajuka and other brains of the Empire to study them so they could create an alternative path for Devils to advance without comprehending the Laws; I strictly believed that these things obtained from the inheritance of the Taboo Lord held the key to it.
If successful, it would increase the power of our Empire exponentially, as many people who couldn't comprehend Laws and advance would now obtain that opportunity and advance to a higher level of power.
Civil War in the Elven Empire ended in the extermination of all Elven Gods, and all Elves were transported to the Baator to a suitable Layer of the Baator, where other species of Elves lived, mainly Silvermoon Elves.
8th Layer of the Baator, Cania had a suitable environment for Elves, as it had a beautiful environment, and its capital, Insomnia, was a place where all Silvermoon Elves lived.
It took an open month to finish the preparations for all mining works completely. Things that went quickest was the transportation of various trees and plants to the Baator; right now, approximately 40% of it was finished just within one month.
All that was needed were several Tier 8 Silvermoon Elves with Nature Manipulation abilities, which speeded up the process significantly.
Mining works were much slower, even though several Tier 8 dwarves and even one Tier 9 dwarf were participating in this, together with hundreds of millions of mining drones. Dwarves were one of the Major Species of the Chthonian Empire of the Baator.
Grandmaster Durin who was the strongest Dwarf in the Chthonian Empire, reaching the pinnacle Apocalypse-Class, told me that Feisuo Plane had extensive loges of the ores and precious metals, and it would take approximately at least 5 years to completely mine all resources on the Feisuo Plane.
Currently, I was spending my time leisurely as I decided to spend here all time until it was time to mine the Planar Core and use it to evolve Baator.
Right now, I was laying on my bed together with Hela in my embrace as we enjoyed after-sex relaxation time.
As I was in a half-sleep state enjoying the warmth of my beloved wife, I suddenly felt someone enter the perimeter of the Feisuo Plane, someone very, very strong... probably on my level or someone slightly stronger than me... this was interesting.
"Hela, I need to go right now."
I said as I clothed myself in my combat outfit and teleported away. At the same time, Hela was startled that I had disappeared; she soon realized that something serious must happen.

Outside of the Feisuo Plane
I saw an incoming silhouette coming at the Feisuo Plane with tremendous speed.
'Warlock... Half-Step Warlock Emperor Realm... judging by fluctuations of his power, he seems to be very close to reaching Warlock Emperor, though there is something different about this one.'
I thought in my head as I observed the incoming silhouette, which appeared to be a male, old one; he wore typical clothing that Warlocks wore, though this fashion didn't really suit any of the Warlock Dynasties.
So either he was a rogue warlock, or he was from a time before Eight Imperial Warlocks Courts rose up, meaning he was a really ancient warlock.
He had a weird symbol between his brows, radiating a faint Divine Energy.
'So this is it... Divine Slave.'
Divine Slaves were slaves enslaved through a special method only usable through an extensive and special method of divine enslavement. Usually, powerful Gods, if possible, enslaved strong Warlocks, Arcanists, or anyone other whom they managed to capture alive.
'It should be a Divine Slave belonging to Irtarr's main body... Divine Slave of Myriad God Emperor. So either way, Irtarr is overwhelmingly arrogant as any other Myriad God Emperor would be, or he is confident enough that his Divine Slave will kill me.'
I thought in my head as I instantly switched to maximum readiness as I was cautious about the incoming foe.
Soon enough, the Quasi-Emperor Warlock appeared and scanned the entire Feisuo Plane with his senses before he turned to a location where I was hiding and performing some secret technique, which released an enormous wave of energy that rushed directly at me.
At the same time, Quasi-Emperor Warlock punched at me, sending another attack my way.
I waved my Mystic Code Rosenkreutz, and with a slash, I broke the incoming energy wave. At the same time, a second after, I teleported behind the Quasi-Emperor Warlock and sent a wave of Nuclear Magic Rule beams directly at him.
He didn't say anything probably, he was just a mindless puppet, and the only thing that remained in him was his combat experiences and reflexes.
He took out some kind of artifact that was Shield and blocked the Nuclear Magic Rule beams with relative ease, though only the first wave of the Nuclear Magic Beams, while he blocked the second wave of the Nuclear Magic Rule beams, the Shield artifact started showing cracks all around it.
After blocking the last wave, Quasi-Emperor Warlock threw the Shield artifact directly at me as he subsequently unleashed a secret technique, as a red aura enveloped his entire body and rushed at me.
I used my control over the Law of Lightning to create Lightning Clouds, which started striking at the Quasi-Emperor Warlock furiously, with each Lightning Strike having power comparable to an average Dimensional-Class powerhouse.
Instantly Dark Light Chains caught the Shield artifact that was flying at me and returned it to the Quasi-Emperor Warlock, as the Shield artifact smashed at his body, sending the Quasi-Emperor Warlock Divine Slave flying back several tens of kilometers.
