Chapter 665: Feeling Threatened (1/2)
Standing beside the Dimension Crack, Leon could feel the boundless power of nihility from the Chaos Sea.
If such power had long existed, even before the beginning of time and the formation of Primal Chaos, it was a wonder how the world could have lasted so long.
And if everything is bound to return to nothingness, everything was transient, nothing was eternal.
Ultimately, everlasting would be a vain dream.
'No, nothingness is eternal—if nothing else. Perhaps, the secret to understanding the everlasting lies in understanding nihility first,' Leon thought.
Eventually, he shut his mind from all distracting thoughts, focusing entirely on comprehending the source of nothingness from the Chaos Sea.
Slowly, a chant was instinctively formed in Leon's mind.
'Everything was born from nothingness. From nothingness, infinite power is drawn. Nothingness is the beginning and the end, the source of all creation and destruction.'
Nihility was not a Great Way. It was the Truth, the answer to all riddles.
Existence and non-existence were just two sides of a coin, separated by a thin wall called belief.
Because something is not seen, it does not mean it does not exist. And even if something is seen, it does not necessarily exist.
As Leon silently comprehended the Nihility Law and deepened his understanding of it, he was enlightened to some truths.
Subtly, a faint connection was formed with the Chaos Sea, and his Nihility Law strengthened.

Meanwhile, Saint Voidflame and Celestial Earthshaker observed Leon with surprises.
They gradually realized Leon was someone who had comprehended the Nihility Law before their expressions quickly turned solemn and grave.
”This child has comprehended the absolute power of the Chaos Sea…! The power of nihility has been tamed by this child! He must be destroyed immediately—!” Celestial Earthshaker exclaimed solemnly.
”Stop!”
As she prepared to strike Leon in the back with the full blast of her celestial power, Saint Voidflame's spiritual form stood in her way, followed by his tree roots moving over to block the Celestial Ruler.
”Don't get in my way, Voidflame. This child must die. His ability will be the death of all worlds if it is allowed to grow!” Celestial Earthshaker barked.
”You are jumping to conclusions again, Earthshaker!” Saint Voidflame growled before he began rebuking, ”The appearance of the Dimension Crack already marks the beginning for the ending of Primal Chaos!”
