This would of course explain why Void God Azathoth was not used prior to Rimuru, even though Akashic Records and Ahura Mazda existed at different points in history. It's because Rimuru hadn't "hatched" it yet, Azathoth wasn't in the Akashic Records yet.

For this reason Veldanava could not "re-connect" with the nihility energy he originally had prior to the world's creation.

What's more, with Akashic Records, and presumably Magicule Breeder Reactor and Ahura Mazda, Rimuru is just as powerful as Veldanava was. In fact, he is stronger. Because you see Imaginary Room holds indefinite amounts of energy, so the breeder reactor could produce indefinite amounts of stardust energy and Rimuru would always have space to put it. The same with nihility energy from the "end of the universe" as Rimuru could store the nihility energy in his rooms and then draw it out when he wants to use it. Even use it to open time warp portals to draw more out.

Veldanava was not able to do this after the creation of the world, and after he had Milim, he got even weaker. Rimuru is not only as strong as Veldanava was, but as strong as he was prior to the creation of the world, when he freely controlled stardust and nihility energy.
