With one glance, Edward could tell Maav's real body was in another dimension of dreams. And the one before him was a projection. So, even if it died, it meant nothing to him.

'These top reincarnators are nothing to scoff at. With such a powerful spell, they survived with minor injuries,' commented Edward. His eyes shone brilliantly as he had an idea.

After the effect of his spell ended, he rushed on the offensive again. He suddenly appeared before Tamat and punched her even harder than the previous one, sending her flying away.

And with that one punch, he severely injured her and canceled out her Super Saiyan 2 transformation.

"Maav, do it," yelled Naruto. However, the wizard seemed to hesitate about something.

"This is not the time to have reservations," added Bai Li.

Naruto went on the offensive and used millions of clones. Edward was surprised as he discovered many of these clones had Tier 8 strength while the rest were Tier 7.

'Interesting. Since when was the Shadow Clone Jutsu.'

Edward was interested in using this Jutsus in the army. He imagined how powerful it would be for his legion to be able to multiply themselves. Unfortunately, after Tier 5, the clones created are so much weaker than the main body.

'He must have used Samsara Points to increase the potency of the spell,' analyzed Edward. He watched as millions of Narutos created massive Rasen Shuriken, preparing to attack him.

He raised his hand.

'Now,' thought Bai Li as he summoned a unique sword. Then, he slashed forward, creating a massive sword bigger than thousands of Star Systems.

However, Edward remained calm without changing his casting posture.

[Dimension Exile]

All the Narutos–except for the real one–suddenly disappeared, exiled to another dimension. And Edward also sent Bai Li's attack to the same place. Then, he suddenly appeared before Naruto, and countless seals emanated from his body.

"You want to seal me? Dream on."


[Bijuu Bomb Explosion]

Naruto spewed a deep black ball of Chakra from his mouth, creating a massive explosion of energy.

'Escape?' thought Edward as he survived the direct attack with a subtle shield layered over his skin. He looked in the distance as Naruto had disappeared despite blocking the surrounding voice.

'None of these reincarnators who can reach the top are simple,' he thought. However, he had an almost undetectable smile on the corner of his mouth.

Without wasting time, he focused on Bai Li. A terrifying purple ball appeared before him, making the surrounding space tremble. Immediately, Maav and Bai Li felt this spell was different.

"This is [Intent]," said Bai Li with shock. "It should be [Destruction Intent]."

"Correct," replied Edward with a smile. "Recently, I came into contact with Destruction Authority. However, I still cannot control it. However, after seeing your Sword Intent, I thought of using a similar method to borrow the power of the Destruction Authority.

"I have to thank you since this method will drastically decrease the time I need to control Destruction Rules.'

Edward was telling the truth. He only recently sensed the Destruction Rules after studying the Naruto Universe's Truth Seeking Ball and combining all the elements he knew into a Destruction Ball. However, he was nowhere in the state where he could wield as he pleased, like his Space-Time and Death Rules.

But with Bai Li's [Intent Method], it is possible.

"Alright. Let's see how you deal with this attack."

The ball rushed toward Bai Li, reducing everything on its path into nothingness. The white-clothed swordsman's facial expressions became intense. He swiftly summoned a magical artifact that looked like a Pagoda.

The nine-layer Pagoda directly confronted the Destruction Ball and succeeded. However, Bai Li's face was paler than paper as the magical power inside his Dantian was rapidly draining as he powered up this magical artifact.

Boom!

The Pagoda blocked the attack, and it was perfectly intact.

'What a marvelous artifact. I wonder how it was made,' pondered Edward. However, he knew this was not the time for this type of thing. He took the opportunity while Bai Li was weakened and on his limits to invade the latter's mind and soul.

He searched for information about the [Intent]; he wanted to know about intent and whether there were any Willpower requirements.

Bai Li was knowledgeable about the Soul since Tier 6 in his Cultivation System is called Nascent Soul. Unfortunately, he did not do as much as Edward. Subsequently, he was already tired and had reached his limit.

Luckily for him, the Origin Seal placed on his soul by the Samsara Hall also helped. However, Edward used a rough method and invaded with terrible force. He destroyed anything in the latter's Soul Dimension that resisted.

As a result, Bai Li's seal deemed the invader to have succeeded. So, it decided to wipe out Bai Li's soul to prevent information about the Samsara Hall from leaking.

Bai Li knew his death was approaching as he was caught in the middle of these two forces. So, he acted decisively. He exploded his body and part of his Primordial Spirit (Soul). Then, he used a precious talisman to run away from the battlefield, still alive.

'It's a shame. However, I got what I wanted,' pondered Edward. He got information about [Intent]. However, he was disappointed as this thing had no Willpower requirement but had for the level of the soul.

The minimum requirement to comprehend [Intent] in Bai Li's world was Tier 5.

'[Intent] cannot increase Willpower. However, it can help train more Legendary Arcanists,' analyzed Edward. 'As long as Chris creates the method to train Willpower, Arcanists can first understand [Intent] before controlling [Authority] or [Rules].'

He was satisfied with this gain. So, Edward finally looked at Maav, who seemed to just be standing and watching his team being decimated.

"I know you're planning your last trump card. So, what is taking so long?" asked Edward. While dealing with the others, he was also secretly trying to discover Maav's Dream Dimension. However, the thing hid deeper than he estimated. Without using his Space-Time Rules, it took a while.

"True," replied Maav.

As soon as he said these words, Edward's Cosmic Awareness activated, and he felt great danger. He controlled his power and sensed the source of the problem.

With one step, he appeared in this all-white space with gray clouds or smoke. He saw an enormous creature that looked exactly like Maav's Demon Form.

Edward did not care about the creature. What he cared about was the thing in his hand: a purple orb the size of an egg.

"Is that–"

"The Marvel Universe's Power Orb," replied Maav. "Although it is only a replica and one-time use, it's more than enough to deal with you."

Boom!

A purple energy wave traveling faster than light rushed everywhere, destroying everything on its path.

Cough! Cough! Cough!

Edward stood in the void with a pale expression. His clothes were destroyed. However, he had no visible injuries. In a few seconds, the enchantments on the robe activated, and it fixed itself.

"A Tier 9 Attack; it's not bad for a trump card."

The Power Gem's attack reached Tier 9, and it was not weak. At the last minute, Edward had to activate his Arcane Spark and use his Karma to create a shield to block the attack.

He looked in the distance and saw nothing: no planets, stars, or galaxies–except for two. This universe was small, with about 100,000 galaxies. With that one attack, all the galaxies were instantly destroyed, leaving only two celestial bodies.

The first one is the planet where Edward's lab was. He also protected this place, so they survived. The second one is in the distance. He guessed it must be the place Maav and the others established to ensure their survival.

'Huh? It disappeared.'

Edward suddenly discovered the other planet had disappeared.

'They must be hiding from me.'

He shook his head, not caring. He waved his hand to summon a beating black heart. During the explosion, he acted swiftly and ripped Maav's heart.

"The wizard's bloodline is related to Dream. Chloe should be able to study something from it.'

He placed it away in his interdimensional bag, perfectly preserving it.
