Chapter 664 - Chaotic Sea Of Nihility

If the Chaos Sea was exactly as the tree spirit had described, then it was the perfect place to comprehend the Nihility Law.

Even if nothing can be observed, just sensing the sheer power of nothingness from the Chaos Sea should allow him to deepen his understanding of the Nihility Law by a substantial amount within a short time.

It was not farfetched to say that it would be his holy land for comprehending nihility.

Shortly after Leon retracted his consciousness from the World Tree and made his way around to the Dimension Crack and stone golem's location, the tree spirit manifested itself, albeit a bit faint.

"Oi—! Stupid old woman, wake up—!" the tree spirit shouted abruptly.

The words from the tree spirit were so unexpected that Leon staggered and nearly tripped over by surprise.

"Haaa—?!"

The stone golem's eyes immediately snapped open in a fury before Celestial Earthshaker barked, "Who are you calling a stupid old woman?! Are you trying to start a fight, Saint Voidflame?!"

"Who else can it be if not you, stupid old woman?" the tree spirit retorted snappishly before he stated overbearingly, "Listen up! There's a junior who has come to see if he can help! So you better leave him alone and let him do his things!"

Rumble…!

The entire core region shook as Celestial Earthshaker's rocky shoulders trembled with anger before Celestial Earthshaker roared, "I've told you many times to not call me an old woman!"

"Pah! If I don't call you an old woman, then what do I call you? You are not a young woman, and you are certainly not a man!" the tree spirit snorted.

"F*ck you!" Celestial Earthshaker cussed before she thundered, "I AM a man!"

On the side, Leon was dumbfounded.

He watched the tree spirit and stone golem exchange verbal abuses with each other.

It was evident that the two had bad blood, but at the same time, Leon found it surprising. Given the time the two must have spent together in the core region, one would at least expect them to be harmonious.

However, that was not what he was seeing.

The two were like an angry pair of husband and wife that argues with each other on a regular basis despite living together.

It was not long before Leon understood that Celestial Earthshaker was born a woman but awakened the Divine Soul of a male god before assuming the identity of the said male god.

'I wonder what is worse between a man being reborn as a tree or as a woman?' Leon thought with amusement.

Eventually, Celestial Earthshaker shot Leon a glare and spat, "So it's you again! Why have you come back here?! This isn't the place for you to be!"

"Stupid old woman, why don't you take a moment to think about how he got here in the first place," the tree spirit ridiculed.

Celestial Earthshaker immediately froze.

Shortly after, her brows crackled under her frown before Celestial Earthshaker questioned him, "Speak! How did you get here?"

"This junior was pulled here while comprehending the earth," Leon answered politely with a fist-palm salute.

Afterward, the tree spirit called Saint Voidflame recounted some details to Celestial Earthshaker before the Celestial Earthshaker finally relinquished her intent to drive Leon away.

Nevertheless, Celestial Earthshaker spat with a deep frown, "You are very weak and do not even have your main body here. So what can you possibly do to stop the expansion of the Dimension Crack?"

"That is something that junior can only figure out after having a closer look at the Dimension Crack, Senior Earthshaker," Leon continued to answer Celestial Earthshaker's question politely.

His respectful attitude eventually made it awkward for Celestial Earthshaker to continue being hard on him, a junior, before she softened up.

"Ahem, well go on then," Celestial Earthshaker urged with a dry cough before she similarly warned Leon, "Do not get too close to the Dimension Crack. Even before you enter the Chaos Sea, the leaking aura of nothingness could still erase your existence."

"Thank you for the warning, Senior."

Shortly after, Leon approached Dimension Crack before the Nihility Aura was quickly felt due to his heightened affinity to the Nihility Law.

But while he had an affinity to nihility, he was not immune to it.

Creak…

Leon quickly felt parts of his spiritual avatar's body wanting to disintegrate under the power of nihility before his eyes brightened.

He could feel the potent power of Nihility Law coming from the Chaos Sea.

'Truly a good place to deepen my understanding of the Nihility Law! No, not just good. It might just be the best place to comprehend the Nihility Law at all,' Leon silently thought with excitement.

"Don't go any closer. That distance is as far as you should go. Any further, and the power of nothingness will spike greatly and erase you from existence," Celestial Earthshaker issued another warning.

Although she did not hope Leon could shrink or even close the Dimension Crack, she did not want anything to happen to him.

Someone who can have the soul quality of a Celestial Warrior at the first stage of Transcendence was naturally a heavenly gifted genius.

"Thanks for the warning, Senior." Leon acknowledged her good intentions, but he shook his head and said, "But I still want to come a little closer to the Dimension Crack."

"Are you tired of living?!" Celestial Earthshaker was quickly shocked before she shouted, "Without any Celestial Power, do you think you can suppress the Dimension Crack? Not to mention coming even closer to—!"

Suddenly, Celestial Earthshaker froze upon sensing the abrupt surge of Nihiliy Aura that came from Leon himself, forming a protective layer that shielded him from the rest of the unrefined Nihility Aura leaking from the chaotic sea of nihility.

Not to mention Celestial Earthshaker's surprise, even Saint Voidflame's eyes widen in shock at the impossible situation in front of them as Leon stopped in front of the Dimension Crack.

A mere Preliminary Accession-stage Transcendent could resist the erosion of Nihility Aura? Were all geniuses so terrifying these days?
