Death… And Me

"I can finally see it clearly... the first sub-law of Wood, Growth," Celis commented as the rest of the medicinal properties of the Earth Life Pill slowly finished being absorbed. "And this is... the first sub-law of Absorption, Sense."

Because they had just recently entered the Space-Time Realm, they could barely scratch the surface of the sub-laws of their main affinities. Until this moment, they couldn't tell yet was they were 'looking' at. The sub-laws were there, but they were too ethereal for them to understand.

Now, however, they could finally distinguish the first sub-law they would need to comprehend in order to advance to the Middle Stage of the Space-Time Realm.

"This is definitely incredible..." Rean also 'looked' at the Laws of Light and Darkness gathering around him. He couldn't manipulate them yet since his cultivation was too low, but just the fact they gathered was enough to increase the power of both his Light and Dark Element Skills. "First Sub-Law of Light is... Light itself. Or, to be more precise, the illumination property of Light. Should I call it Illumination sub-law or Light Sub-law?"

"Too confusing," Kentucky complained. "I'm going to use Illumination and that's it."

Roan agreed with Kentucky. For him, the simpler, the better. "Illumination it is. As for the First Sub-Law of Darkness, obviously, it is the opposite of Light, Darkness... but to make it simple, let's just call it Darkening."

All major laws used during the Space-Time Realm have four Sub-Laws in total. That goes according to the number of Stages of the Realm. At the moment, even with Roan's Pills, it was impossible to see the second Sub-law, though. That one would only become 'visible' once the first one was fully comprehended. That also means it would only be possible to comprehend it once they advance to the Middle Stage of the Space-Time Realm.

Rean then looked at Celis, a little curious. "Still, the first Sub-Law of Absorption is Sense? Does it have anything to do with Absorption?"

"Hmph! It has everything to do with Absorption," Celis answered with a snort. "The First Sub-Law is all about sensing every detail of all types of energy that I can absorb. In a certain way, my understanding regarding energies will be even higher than yours. As a consequence, the process of Absorption can be optimized according to the properties of each type of energy."

"I see..." Rean felt a little jealous. "If just I could comprehend this law, just how good would it be when I work on my next weapons."

Roan then got up. "Fortunately, as long as I concentrate, I don't need to stay still to comprehend the laws. You guys can also do it while cultivating here. Anyway, I'm going out. We need to reach the Essence Race home and get to work on that Fragment."

Before Roan took his leave, Rean asked him something, and he accepted. Roan immediately left after that. Appearing outside, the Laws of Dark and Light gathered around him, which he used to comprehend the first two sub-laws. Sure, he made a marvelous pill, and it would increase their speed many times. Nonetheless, it would take many years until they fully comprehend the first Sub-Laws.

Roan then took out his communication badge and called a number. 'Where are you?'

On the other side, Luan's Divine Sense answered the question through his communication badge. 'I'm still in the Devils' Territory, father. Do you need help?'

Roan nodded. 'Rean and I have just come back from the Heavens. How are the things in the war? Are the cultivators still hunting that Living Soul Devil and keeping the armies stuck?'

'No,' Luan quickly began to explain. 'The Living Soul Devil seems to have fled the Realm of Gods. Thanks to that, the Divinity Realm experts returned to their armies, and the attacks resumed. Of course, Father has been out for just two years, so things didn't change much from the time Uncle Rean was here.'

'It left the Realm of Gods?' Roan narrowed his eyes. 'It needs Living Souls to increase its power, and it seemed to have some kind of ability to detect when experts came after it. How do they know it left the Realm of Gods?'

Luan agreed. 'I thought the same thing. However, that was truly what was passed to us. Father knows I have just advanced to the Initial Stage of the Elemental Space Realm not long ago, and no one knows I'm involved with you. The information available to someone at my level is quite restricted. I haven't asked either since I didn't want to catch suspicion. I'm here only to train, as Father told me to do.'

'It's good that you know,' Roan was satisfied with the answer. 'Don't worry. I know who to contact to learn more about this.'

'I thought so,' Luan said. 'So, why did father call me?'

'Actually, it is the idiot who asked for you,' Roan thought about Rean's request. 'Rean want to have your help... or, to be more specific, your eyes' help. Since I'm going back to the Devils' Territory, I can pass by the continent where your army is stationed at the moment.'contemporary romance

Rean was going to try to refine the Fragment Huban has in his Dimensional Realm. However, the Extinction Sphere energy was something he didn't know much about. Before attempting to refine it, he wanted Luan to take a look with his Sacred Eyes to see if there was anything he could learn. That's why he asked Roan to contact Luan, who was training after his breakthrough into the Elemental Space Realm.

Luan didn't think twice. 'Great! I also accumulated a good amount of Serene Gold Filament since Uncle Rean mentioned he would try to make that new circuitry armor of his for me as well. It isn't as much as Uncle Rean and Kentucky earned, but it should help.'

'That's perfect,' Roan didn't forget about the armor, nor did Rean. 'He might as well work on this new Circuitry Armor of his when we get there.'

'Then it is settled,' Luan felt excited to join Rean and Roan's group again. 'I'm in Troncal Continent at the moment. Should I go somewhere else to meet you, Father?'

'No need,' Roan already checked which continent it was and it wasn't too far from Huban's Continent. 'I'll fetch you in a few days. Don't go out during this time.'
