Prime Originator Chapter 737 - Seeking Insight-level Transcendent

Chapter 737 - Seeking Insight-level Transcendent

Given Darlene's profound Void Soul Const.i.tution, Leon figured that she might be able to comprehend something from it once her improved soul increases her perception.

Thus, Darlene had her Void Soul Const.i.tution, and Aria had the Sword Intent in the tier-7 divine sword.

The two girls were settled on their cultivation focus.

It didn't take long before the group of four found their own s.p.a.ce on the treetop and commenced their silent cultivation.

Leon watched the three people for a moment before taking his leave from the veiled location and finding a more secluded spot for his cultivation.

Consider the Devil Emperor's Tome of Eternal Darkness cultivation art has 'Devil Emperor' in its name; it shouldn't be too shabby.

There was bound to be a disturbance once he trains.

After finding a nice spot some distance away from the others, Leon entered a seated meditation with his eyes closed and sent his mind into the [Archive] to peruse the first volume of the Devil Emperor's Tome of Eternal Darkness.

'Before the beginning of time, before the birth of light, and the swing of the world pendulum that marks the start of everything, there was only darkness; perpetual and eternal darkness.'

'Then, the world was divided into black and white, darkness and light, forming an inflexible balance and relations.h.i.+p.'

'However, there can be darkness without light, but no light without darkness.'

'Eternal darkness will always reign supreme.'

'Therefore, thy who controls the Law of Eternal Darkness, shall lord over the world of darkness and all its creations.'

The recorded texts of the Devil Emperor's Tome of Eternal Darkness's first volume spoke to Leon like the gospels of universal truth, almost brainwas.h.i.+ng him into such belief.

However, Leon comprehended the Nihility Law and knew only it deserved to be called supreme.

Even so, the greater devils and G.o.ds were all supreme existences during the primordial era; thus, there should be some truth to the Devil Emperor's Tome of Eternal Darkness's opening verses.

Or, at the very least, there should be some secret behind it that made the Devil Emperor a supreme existence during that era.

Leon furrowed his brows and placed the Devil Emperor's Tome of Eternal Darkness study on pause before picking out the first volume of another cultivation art.

After reading through its opening verses, Leon's frown deepened as he picked several more cultivation arts of peerless G.o.ds and devils and read their opening verses.

He immediately noticed the consistency.

Every cultivation art didn't delve straight into the training instruction; it started with opening verses emphasizing a single idea or belief.

Furthermore, none of their ideas and beliefs overlaps.

Each great G.o.d and devil took the element of their cultivation art to be the supreme element in the firmament.

'Even a primary elemental law like Fire Law is proclaimed to be the strongest power in the Brahma Fire G.o.d's Eternal Flame Scripture…'

Leon pondered.

Of course, Fire Law is still Fire Law. But to the Brahma Fire G.o.d, it became the Eternal Flame Law.

Suddenly, Leon felt a flash of insight.

Although it was impossible for him to learn every primordial technique recorded in the [Archive], there was much to learn from simply reading over them.

The primordial era of G.o.ds and devils' history, he could not learn.

However, their cultivation arts contained the c.u.mulation of their experience and insights. Even if they might not be mentioned directly in the texts, Leon could vaguely pick them up.

'I see… It doesn't matter whether the gospel written in the Devil Emperor's Tome of Eternal Darkness is true or not. What's important is the belief behind it,' Leon understood.

Just like the difference between a man simply wielding a sword and an actual swordsman with Sword Intent, it was all about the will.

They might be two people with swords, but their strengths are completely different based on their belief in the sword.

'The Devil Emperor's Tome of Eternal Darkness' first volume's opening verse is used to form the belief that eternal darkness is supreme and build on it.'

By ardently believing in an idea and pursuing it all the way, that is how experts reach the top.

However, Leon didn't feel like he could replicate such feats.

He has too many powers to abandon them all in the pursuit of reaching the apex in one. But even if he didn't, he understood that strong will gives birth to strong power.

Even if his other laws can't reach the same height as Nihility Law, they will still become stronger due to his profound understanding of the truth.

Suddenly, Leon had another thought.

'I have been practicing the Hegemon of Primal Chaos for so long. What if I was brainwashed into believing that Nihility is the ultimate law in primal chaos? Why can't any law become supreme?'

Questions were formed in Leon's mind.

Even if he has the Nihility Law, which he believes to be the supreme law, Leon still can't beat Celestials and Demon Lords with his current cultivation level.

Thus, he understood another truth.

There was no supreme law, only supreme beings; whatever the supreme beings use will become the supreme law.

'Only my will is eternal.'

Leon suddenly put aside learning the Devil Emperor's Tome of Eternal Darkness and exited the [Archive] to meditate on the Nihility Law.

He formed the belief that Nihility Law was the strongest power due to the Hegemon of Primal Chaos but never actively and firmly believed that it was while trying to comprehend it.

But once he did…

Rumble…!

Leon vaguely felt the formation of a phenomenon, but nothing was actually forming in the sky above him.

There is no gathering of clouds, no colorful beams from the stars, nor aurora forming; just nothing at all.

It was the same when he became a Nihility Transcendent.

But when Leon opened his eyes and gathered the power of Nihility to see how much stronger it became, he immediately knew he was already a Seeking Insight-level Transcendent.

"Is this the power of beliefs? No, this is the strength of my will."

By using his will to exert a firm belief in the Nihility Law, he gained a stronger connection to it, reaching the Seeking Insight stage without needing the necessary comprehension level.

Nevertheless, his will isn't infinite.

Unless he could continue improving his soul, he will have to keep comprehending the laws normally to attain higher levels.
