Lord Shadow

Chapter 1064: Understanding of the system and oneself (1)

A black hole is one of the mysterious things in the Universe. Even as Azief was absorbing its power, it is not like the mystery of the black hole were revealed to him.

All he needed, all he wanted from the black hole is simply its energy.

Impure, but massive reserve of energy that could be absorbed by a being like him.

That is the energy contained in the black hole.

No one could do this unless they took the same path as him.

if there is one other person that could do this from Earth prime, it would probably be only Katarina who walks the same path a shim.

To endure the pulling of the gravitational force of the black hole requires a powerful body that would get torn apart by such pulling force that could flatten planets and stars.

Then it also need a body that could withstand the amount of energy that would be absorbed while at the same time, making sure that the tainted energy would not overwhelm one body to the point that one had to make a seclusion just to remove the impurities.

Azief also felt something else as he was absorbing the energy in the black hole

Azief since the Fall had never felt the feeling of bloating. Before the Fall, he had many intestinal issue, having bad gastric affliction.

But after the Fall, this is one of the few things that had never bothered him.

But, that is the feeling he felt when he was absorbing the energy of the black hole. It felt like he is bloating, his stomach feels like it would expand.

This is the first time he had absorbed so much energy in such a short time and he could not stop it once he started it.

Then he condensed the twelve Law Avatar and the black hole turns to the size of Earth. Like before, the absorbing power increase and the rate of absorption increased by a thousand time.

A large amount of energy is forcefully extracted from the black hole.

Its event horizon even seems to be affected and since black hole is where laws of physics melts the time and space around the area contorted.

The Laws inside a black hole is different than the laws of physics that exited in the world.

As such some supernatural phenomenon that is hard to explain also occurs around him.

The unfortunate thing was that Azief had no time to look at all of this phenomena and investigated it.

It takes all he had just to concentrate his energy.

He had to use the ability of the All Source Law to refine the energy that is coming toward him while at the same time keep absorbing the energy

The rate of absorbing the energy is at times even more faster than the rate of him purifying the taints.

As long as he breakthrough to the next level, it would not be so hard for him to remove the remaining taint.

But, he must make sure that it would not overwhelm him too much

All that was left was for him to condense the law Avatar and create his soul

But at the last moment, he could not completely condense the last law into the soul.

It requires more energy and some understanding. As for the energy it is simple. There is still Earth Prime where he could absorb more energy

And it was only in that last moment that Azief understood something about energy that he did not understand before

Of course, this comes at a high price.

The high price was for him to fail in condensing his Law Avatar.

It is during that moment, in that split moment of failure, he understood something about the difference between the energy that is contained inside the black hole and the energy that is prevalent in Earth Prime.

It is not simply the difference in the purity.

Energy and force are everywhere in the Universe.

At first, he thought there would be no difference between the energy of the black hole and the energy that is in Earth prime

Yes, the purity is different and the effect is also different. Azief notices this the moment he absorbs the energy of the black hole.

The purer the energy, the less it takes an effort to use it and familiarize it with your own vessel or body.

The body is the vessel.

Divine Comprehension while it could be said breaking through into a whole new level of power, a territory of power where one has control over the Laws that make up the Universe, a connection to some source of energy of Everything, one still have a vessel or body.

Law Avatar is an extension of that vessel. Of course, it is hard to kill a Divine Comprehension leveler.

But they could still be killed.

But Essence Creation is the liberation from the vessel. The body is still there but even without the body, one could still be alive.

The soul is then the most powerful aspect of an Essence Creation leveler. Like the Demon King who have other methods even after his body was literally obliterated to dust

With one droplet of blood, he could regenerate itself and it did not regenerate weak from the lowest bottom of power but straight to Divine Comprehension leveler.

But the equivalent of Essence Creation for the Seresian demon might be called another thing in their world and the method might be different since Seresian have some flaws in their creation.

Regardless, the Essence Creation level that Azief had try to pass is to liberate the vessel and turn into a being of energy.

But not simply just a being of energy.

But a being that also connected to the laws that make up creation of the Omniverse

Those who could reach such level would not only have power over the laws that they have learned, they also could understand the essence of their law.

A simple law of the world, like the law of element could be elaborated and could affect the Conceptual effect of even the smallest Law.

In the end, ten thousand paths would in the end lead closer to the One source of energy of everything.

Azief could take so many shortcuts because the laws that he had cultivated were all high tier laws that is very close to the Laws of the Universe and Laws that affect the Omniverse.

This did not mean that those who learn slow tier laws could not reach Azief heights.

It would only take them more time.

If there is one truth that had become self-evident after the Fall, it is the fact that efforts, unlike before the Fall, does not betray you.

If you persevere, walk your path, do not give up, survive, one day, the effort of persevering, of not straying, of not giving up, the effort to keep surviving even when surviving is hard…. then you would be able to reach the same height…. even if you started with a low tier law.

But once you start giving up, once you start bending the path that you decided to follow, you will never even see the starting line.

That is the reason Azief though he could become so quick in breakthrough. But another reason was the energy.

The thing that he understood was other than the purity of energy, it was the path.

Azief did not notice this before.

Because at that time, the energy requirement for him to breakthrough is not as high and most of that energy is energy that would come and be absorbed into the vessel

No matter how many black holes Azief absorb after this, it would not make him able to condense the last of his Law Avatar.

That is what he had realizes

It is not about energy.

At first, he thought that he could not condense it because the black hole has no energy but it wasn’t until he was in the process of backlash that he seems to understood this

As for anyone trying to break through, as long as it is not the breakthrough to Essence Creation, any energy, of any worlds, or source of energy is beneficial.

But that is not the case for anyone who wanted to break through to Essence Creation. The system explanation was simple.

It is modified to suit the host ability and means.

Azief is sure that for someone who only cultivated until the Sixth Disk would have a different set of guide by the system guiding him on how to breakthrough to Divine Comprehension.

The system is not there to restrict but to help. But when someone had reached a high enough level, this system is no longer an aid but a restriction.

Azief believe that this restriction is not simply just a simple restriction so that humanity could not grow to a certain stage but instead it also acts as a protection.

When Azief first broke through to Disk Formation, he breaks through while at the same time following the Perfection path.

What fall upon him is the wrath of Heaven, unseen before.

Other people also might be subjected to the same treatment as him but probably not as severe as him where even his skill melted

What would happen if someone break through a level that should not be broken?
