After witnessing the condition of Zod's body, even the Reiblandor Alien, who prided himself on his vast knowledge, couldn't help but feel horrified.
He had never imagined that a cosmic life form's body could simultaneously contain the extreme light and extreme darkness, two completely opposing forces.
Because ever since the Universe was born from primal Chaos, light and darkness had completely separated to become the two poles of the world.
In an instant, he thought of an even more ancient legend, a terrifying existence that might possess both of these powers simultaneously.
Immediately, the Reiblandor Alien suppressed his shock and asked, "Are you the legendary Chaos Demonic God Grimde?"
The Chaos Demonic God Grimde is a demonic god that existed even before the birth of the Universe.
The power of Chaos he possessed was the source of light and darkness in the Universe, but after the birth of the Universe, light and darkness completely separated.
This also caused the power of Chaos within this demonic god to continuously weaken, and his strength consequently declined significantly.
To prevent his power from further weakening, he launched an unprecedented cosmic upheaval, intending to return all Universes to Chaos.
However, his Peak had already passed, and he was ultimately defeated by the legendary warriors born in the Great Universe Era and Sealed on the spot.
Over the passage of time, his Seal location—Borghes—also became a forbidden zone in the Universe.
Now, looking at Zod, the Reiblandor Alien couldn't help but suspect that he was the Incarnation of the Chaos Demonic God who had broken free from the Seal.
So he spoke directly, wanting to expose Zod's disguise.
Zod was not surprised to hear the name Grimde from the Reiblandor Alien.
After all, he was once a figure who ruled the Universe; although it was unclear how much exaggeration was involved, he surely had basic knowledge.
At this moment, Zod said with a disdainful tone, "Heh heh! Grimde is nothing but a lingering remnant of a bygone era. Death is his inevitable destiny."
In the Great Universe Era, after light and darkness completely separated, the power of Chaos controlled by this Chaos Demonic God was like a constantly deflating balloon, and he eventually died completely at the hands of Regulos, formed by the Body Integration of the new generation Ultraman.
"You are not Grimde, then who exactly are you?"
"Want to know? Then submit to me, otherwise, I'd like to personally verify if your immortal and indestructible Soul can truly not be annihilated."
Hearing Zod's threatening words, the Reiblandor Alien's heart fell into a dilemma.
He knew very well his current predicament; this space-time had been temporarily severed, making escape almost impossible.
But as a former overlord who ruled the Universe, submitting to someone else's feet was also unacceptable to him.
So he still spoke with a glimmer of hope in his tone:
"Actually, we can cooperate. I believe you should understand that in the infinite sea of Universes, there are countless parallel Universes. I believe even you cannot rule all Universes with limited energy..."
Upon hearing this, Zod directly interrupted him: "I've already made it very clear. I don't need partners; I only need loyal subordinates."
"Now, this is your only chance to continue existing. Of course, you can try to gamble that I have no way to annihilate your Soul."
Zod's words made the Reiblandor Alien's consciousness shudder.
Although he was confident in his immortal Soul, he also feared that Zod would Seal him indefinitely.
Especially after witnessing Zod's ability to completely sever a piece of space-time.
If he were Sealed in such a special space, perhaps endless years would be enough to wear away his wisdom, eventually turning him into something like those low-intelligence monsters.
After a period of intense internal struggle, the Reiblandor Alien finally made his decision.
His Spirit transformed into a normal human size, then he said, "I am willing to submit to you, but I hope you can restore my true Physical Body."
Facing his words, Zod merely glanced at him disdainfully and said indifferently, "You are not qualified to negotiate with me. Now, swear allegiance to me!"
Although there was much unwillingness, the Reiblandor Alien had no other choice.
Immediately, he prostrated himself before Zod.
At this moment, Zod felt something, raised his hand, and summoned a black-purple vortex that directly swallowed Reiblood's Spirit.
Within the Gluttony King, there is a branch skill—Soul Eater—which allows one to devour the Soul of anyone who submits to them, thereby controlling their life and Death.
When the Reiblandor Alien was released by Zod again, his entire Spirit radiated fear.
He could now clearly feel a special connection between his Soul and Zod, and this connection made him feel a fatal sense of threat.
This was something he had never experienced even when his Physical Body was annihilated back then.
"From now on, your existence is completely in my hands. Do not think of rebelling, or else your Spirit will disappear just like your body."
Even with all the humiliation, the Reiblandor Alien at this moment had completely lost his confidence in facing Zod, and he responded very sensibly, "Yes, my master!"
Then, Zod also swallowed Bruton, the Four-Dimensional Monster, who was cowering to the side.
Although Zod possessed all of Bruton's abilities, a mosquito, no matter how small, is still meat, and Zod didn't dislike it.
"Mr. Zod, are you alright!"
Just then, Zero's voice came from behind.
Feeling the aftermath of the battle disappear, and Zod and the Reiblandor Alien's figures vanish, he, who had been protecting everyone, finally had time to fly over and check the battle situation here.
However, seeing Belial lying on the ground and Reiblood's Spirit standing before Zod, he knew he had asked a superfluous question.
"It's over, but the remaining Belial Legion still needs to be slowly cleared!"
"Leave that to me. I'll dismantle all those shoddy fakes into parts."
Zero was very displeased with Belial using his image to create robots, so he immediately thumped his chest and guaranteed.
Then, just after he finished speaking, the Color Timer on his chest suddenly began to flash.
Looking again, the last crystal on his knight bracelet on his wrist also dimmed, clearly indicating that all the energy stored within it had been depleted!
Having previously received Zod's promise, Zero was carefree, not caring about his own energy consumption at all.
"That's good. After all, it wasn't easy for you to cross the Universe for this trip. You're bound to experience some tempering. Now, you'll be responsible for cleaning up this Universe!"
"And so, I'll also give you a small gift."
Saying this, Zod raised his hand, and a pure golden energy orb slowly condensed in his hand, then directly landed on him.
Instantly, the previously flashing Color Timer returned to its clear blue color.
Moreover, Zero felt that his chest armor and the shoulder guards on his arms seemed to have undergone a slight change.
He couldn't help but look up at the sun in the sky, and then with a thought, streams of energy converged towards him.
Zod's voice rang in his mind: "From now on, no matter in which Universe, as long as there is a star, you can draw energy from it to replenish yourself."
Hearing this, Zero, who had just experienced the predicament of being unable to replenish energy, naturally understood that this was a gift.
