Chapter 834 - Reaching The Underground Ruins

Name:Prime Originator Author:Pointbreak
'If my guess is right, this kind of diabolical Teleportation Array should be destroyed!' Leon silently determined in his heart.

He had all the more reason not to let anyone close to him die in the secret realm.

"Sorry, I was thinking about something concerning related to the Teleportation Array. I'll explain on the way," Leon replied.

However, after they resumed moving for a short distance, Leon suddenly stopped again, baffling everyone.

"Why did you stop again?" Aria asked.

"We aren't heading for the western edge; we have a more important destination to reach," Leon answered her before asking the realm spirit for confirmation, "Is this the location, Tak-si?"

"Yes, Master. The underground ruins and core is located right under this land," the realm spirit replied.

"Understood," Leon acknowledged with a nod.

Not long after, he observed his surroundings and noticed it was quite an open space.

Everyone would see what was happening from a distance unless the area was walled off to obstruct their view, which was what he intended to do.

The surrounding ground began to shake alongside Leon's spread of earthen ability; he willed the earth and raised a rocky wall as high as 40 feet, not too tall nor too short, and completely sealed their surrounding.

"My Lord?" the dark faes were startled.

"I don't want prying eyes on what I'm about to do," Leon stated.

After hearing that, the dark faes immediately thought that even if he didn't want prying eyes, the rock wall's presence would eventually attract people over.

More importantly, what was the lord going to do? He's not going to kill them, is he?

Leon thought about the attraction the rocky wall would bring, but he didn't find it to be a problem.

Whether they are humans or demons, death would be their only outcome if they come looking for trouble in a place they are not welcomed.

Nevertheless, there was bound to be some noise.

"Guard the area, and immediately alert me if anyone comes."

"Yes, my Lord!"

Shortly after instructing the dark faes, Leon shared his thoughts on the Teleportation Array with Aria and Darlene while he dug into the earth with the power of Nihility.

While Aria listened, she watched him slowly sinking into the ground at a snail pace.

However, once Leon increased the range of his Nihility Law, he began sinking into the ground faster like quicksand.

The soil, the rocks, all pieces of the land underneath Leon's feet disintegrated into wisps of True Grandmist Energy like mist after coming into contact with Nihility.

Tak-si stared at the wisps of True Grandmist Energy with craving, but Leon didn't let a single wisp of True Grandmist Energy escape his grasp.

He devoured every wisp of it into his Black Vortex Space, and his low reserve of True Grandmist Energy increased noticeably.

From a few dozen wisps of True Grandmist Energy, it surged to several dozen wisps of True Grandmist Energy within a few short breaths.

Half an hour later, it increased to the hundreds.

At the same time, Leon descended more than 200 feet below ground, disappearing from Aria and Darlene's view.

All they could see was a 5-yard diameter large hole that stretched deeper and deeper into the earth until light could not reach its ever-growing depth.

"The Radiant Heaven Realmship's core is down there, huh?" Aria muttered with a thoughtful look.

She understood what Leon wanted to achieve by heading down there and could not help but feel rising anticipation for what's to become of the Radiant Heaven Realmship.

Once Leon binds the Radiant Heaven Realmship and repairs its spatial functions, they would have no need for the sinister Teleportation Array that collects and refines the souls of the deceased for the next Shaman King's Successor.

But while Aria understood Leon's intention, Darlene was completely clueless.

"What is Leon trying to achieve by digging down there, Sister Aria? Do you know?" she asked.

"I do. He is…" Aria suddenly smiled mysteriously before replying vaguely with a tease, "Well, you'll find out later."

Darlene pouted, but she chose not to press the topic.

"What should we do when humans or demons arrive? Leon didn't specify, but I doubt he would want to keep outsiders around to watch what we are doing here," she mentioned.

The primordial energy from the beginning of time was not something any major forces would ignore if news of it reached their ears.

However, she was even more curious about the power Leon used to produce the said energy.

"Of course, we'll shoo them all away, whether we do with words or with force," Aria firmly stated.

"You should know that what Leon has can easily incite the ugly greed of others who knows its value; even worse, they might even kill him if they understand the power he comprehended."

"Why would they try to kill him?" Darlene was puzzled by Aria's words.

She didn't understand why anyone would want to kill the goose if it could lay golden eggs, especially if they were powerful enough to do it.

"Because of the power he wields," Aria stated.

As if knowing what Darlene would ask next, she added, "But if you want to know the specifics of his power, you'll have to ask him yourself."

After hearing that, Darlene was even more curious.



Meanwhile, Leon continued to descend deeper and deeper into the earth, dropping more than five thousand feet and accumulating more than 3000 wisps of True Grandmist Energy in the past half hour.

If he wanted, he could descend even quicker—but it would come at the cost of True Grandmist Energy.

After all, increasing the intensity of the Nihility Law will destroy whatever True Grandmist Energy he could gain out of the earth.

Without trying to rush to the core, Leon kept the intensity of his Nihility Power at a consistent level.

Roughly more than two hours later, he descended past the 20,000 ft mark and broke into a vast underground space with more than 10,000 wisps of True Grandmist Energy.

Shortly after, he summoned a ball of fire to illuminate the dark space and reveal the underground ruins' appearance.
