Chapter 257 - Leaving the world(2)

Nick began to prepare the base to travel the void by modifying the array to create air as well as to be very heat resistant. the reason for the heat resistance was because in the void there is literally nothing to tone down the temperature around forcing objects to take the entirety of that heat. after taking care of the durability issue nick worked on increasing the speed that the base traveled since he didn't want to bȧrėly move on a cosmological scale after traveling for decades. the way nick fixed this problem was by chaining several small spheres of the same material as the foundation of the base. theses spheres were independently covered in a multitude of acceleration inscriptions each working together to send the spheres to frankly ridiculous speeds. from what nick could tell with these spheres pulling the base he would travel safely at just under the speed of light and if he discarded safety almost twice as fast as light. while this seems impressive for cultivators capable of traveling the void it was just average since inhabitable worlds are quite far apart usually meaning to really get anywhere meaningful this is the smallest speed acceptable.

The date nick had decided to leave was rapidly approaching and few things had happened during this build up. the first was that jakob had talked to his family who reluctantly agreed to him going with nick when he left and some had even asked if they could tag along. nick immediately made it clear he only intended to bring those he was close to with him a category none of them fit into. the second thing that happened was that millea had renounced her godhood which was a huge spectacle as the entire world shuddered and seemed to wail as the laws and powers of the darkness deity left her. funnily enough this was the thing that tip subhuti off about nicks plan causing the old man to practically beg nick to reconsider. nick explained that he had no intention of staying put when it only benefits someone else. nick even explained how little this world had actually done for him as well as how eager the other cultivators are to rip him apart at the first chance they get. in the end subhuti couldn't find any reason why nick should stay since all of his points were valid.

That conversation had happened a month ago and in this time nick has basically been power leveling millea with both his body refinement technique as well as the pills to go with it. as it turns out her talent in this field is absolutely monstrous as in only a short month she had gone from a mortal all the way to bone stage of iron tier. though to be fair nick himself is a dual cultivator with his body refinement being of secondary importance whereas millea was focusing on body refinement alone.. still nick wasn't worried since even if she surpasses him in body refinement hers is still inferior to his own since he refined his body with a huge number of laws while she only used two being darkness and life funnily enough.
