" If you want to beat him, this is what you must do….." Rudra said as Max became fully focused on what his brother had to say.

" Firstly you must learn to expand your mana veins. I can't tell you why, but you must strengthen them to handle an output 1000 times stronger than your maximum output for prolonged periods of time" Rudra said as he made sure to not reveal the secrets of the karmic essence and bring karmic backlash upon himself, but still inform Max about what he needed to do.

" If my understanding is correct, you will need to first tame the seed of creation and destruction and then use the power of the seed of destruction to destroy your body and the power of the seed of creation to recreate it, over and over again until your mana veins and your body as a whole become much much potent than what they are" Rudra said as Max grit his teeth and nodded.

This procedure did not seem to be something so simple as blindly destroying one's body and recreating it, although his brother explained it simply, Max understood that this process would be much harder than what it seemed.

" You must also learn how to imbue the powers of the seed of creation and destruction into your attacks as the seeds will be the only object that can actually provide you with an edge in battle against the perfect warrior.

Any treasure below tier10 is worthless against him and the only tier10 treasure in the universe are those seeds.

So make sure to master them" Rudra said as Max made a mental note to master the seeds just like he had mastered all the elements so far.

" Don't make the same mistakes that I did and underestimate the universal warehouse.historical

Learn every trick in the book from that place.

Everything that can negate an opponent's attack, that can confuse them, that can give you the opportunity to manoeuvre one more move, you learn it all!

You don't just learn it, you master it.You become a master of everything and that's the only way you can hope to fight that man who has already mastered everything" Rudra said as he involuntarily shuddered thinking about just how many moves the perfect warrior had perfected.

Although it was impossible for one to master all the moves created throughout human history, it was possible for one to master a lot of divine moves that were readily available in the universal warehouse to enrich one's knowledge.

Rudra had seen how the perfect warrior used his superior moveset to handle every situation perfectly and he understood very well that if Max wished to stand up to him, he needed to have an impressive arsenal of moves of his own.

" The perfect warrior has an incredible defence.

Incredible is not even the correct word for it Max, the perfect warrior has a near impossible defence.

If you want to imagine how strong? Imagine a tier0 or a tier1 warrior shooting arrows at a tier7 dragon.

Even if those arrows land, their damage won't be more than a single point in HP and that's how robust the perfect warrior's defence is.

I don't know how he achieved it, but I do know that you need to work on your defence.

The offence will take care of itself, but you need to work on your defence and improve it to the point where tier8 attacks won't penetrate more than an inch of your skin.lights

Take medicinal baths, or perform forbidden rituals, I have no idea how, but you must improve your defence hundredfold" Rudra said as Max felt his chest tighten listening to this demand.

He was already the strongest in the universe, someone who could solo all the other monarchs in a matter of minutes, yet according to his brother it was nowhere near enough.

Just how strong was the perfect warrior that his bare skin could practically render a tier8 attack useless?

Could such an individual even be defeated at all?

" I know what you're thinking brother…. I know you're wondering if such a being can even be defeated? But don't worry about such things.

Yesterday I shaved off 30% of that guys HP and since you're five times better than me you will take off 150% of his HP.

Just focus on completing as many of these goals as you can and meet me up here.

I promise that by the time you're here I shall have the plan to beat the perfect warrior down to the T.

We will beat him brother….. we have to. Once you come here you will understand why it's so important, but it's the most important thing ever.

We need to liberate our universe.

We nee-" Rudra suddenly paused while speaking as Max saw with his own eyes as to how Rudra suffered a terrible Karmic Backlash in real time.

He clutched his chest in front of Max as black chains rose from his surroundings and shredded his celestial body to pieces.

Rudra had accidentally revealed something that he should have not and the last seconds of the video call hence ended in Max watching his brother suffer a karmic backlash.

Max could not tell Rudra anything, the two could not hold a casual conversation about how things were going down here or how Max had second thoughts about ascending as a whole.

He could not ask Rudra if it was possible to come back to the controlled universe once one ascended, or how Rudra's wives missed him so much.

All he could do was to keep Rudra's words in mind and remember the last sentence his brother said.

' They needed to liberate the universe and it was more important than Max could ever fathom'

" Alright brother, if you say it's important, I shall believe you. I shall fulfil all the conditions you want me to fulfil and I shall join you in the celestial realm soon" Max said as the connection ended and the communication orb shattered.
