For a mont there, they lost their identity. Legion-5 for sure forgot why he was in the void and what he was doing in the middle of a lightning storm. He was confused but only for an instant. The other clones helped him with his identity and purpose. Then Legion-7 restored his fragnted consciousness.
Legion-5 jested, "I think the void universe wants to kill us."
He is joking to mask the pain. Despite reaching what he thought was the limit of pain, they still felt more pain because of the last attack.
Pain is the psychological response to damage to existence. It helps to determine a phenonon that can threaten one's existence. That violet lightning is a threat to their existence hence the pain.
He might have joked about it but Legion is certain that the void universe wants to kill them. It has not been up to a minute but they have already been pushed to the closest point of death that they have ever reached since they reincarnated.
Not only did the lightning change color, but even the whirlpool around them also changed from black to red. The storm ford into a red cage charged with power. By the looks of things, the void universe does want to kill them.
More and more of the special violet lightning was created around them in the red whirlpool of a storm. Then they were discharged suddenly.
All of the lightning managed to find their way to Legion-5's body. So his body was turned into perforated cheese very quickly.
It happened so fast. Most of their body was lost in seconds. Their arms and legs have turned to dust. Part of their head and most of their torso are gone too.
The physical injury cannot compare to the injury of the soul. Their consciousness despite having two of it was tethering on the edge of total collapse. Any more and they will die.
They activated the ti reversal of the ti worm's divine ability quickly. Their injuries regenerated instantly. It was as if ti was being rewinded. The pain disappeared suddenly and they were whole again.
"That was close."
"The law of order disappointed us."
"But we were prepared."
If they hadn't prepared for Legion-5 to be nearly unkillable then they would be dead by now. The law of order that usually disrupts and destabilizes energy attacks is not working for them at all. It has taught them a valuable lesson not to rely on the law of order.
In fact, they have learned not to rely on any Supre law that isn't theirs. It could disappoint them when they truly need it. It certainly will disappoint them when they are fighting the owner of the supre law.
Fortunately, their confidence wasn't completely in the divine ability of the giants of order. They have other divine abilities to rely on. So it would take a lot more to kill them.
Even so, their resistance to death was tested to the limit. The tribulation continued for a few more minutes during which they ca close to death several tis.
The good news is that the fusion with the law matrix was still going on. It might be slow but it is progress.
The bad news is that the progress of the fusion beca slower the more injured they were. So the progress slowed down terribly as the lightning tribulation got more aggressive as ti passed.
The amount of lightning strikes they received per second increased from 10 to 100. Ti reversal had to remain activated constantly to keep them alive while simultaneously maintaining the fusion with the law matrix. Any lapse in judgnt and they will die imdiately.
It was as if they were being beaten as they tried to dig up a treasure. They couldn't get distracted from digging by focusing only on defending themselves from the beating and they couldn't forgo defense to expedite the digging.
They had to do the sa at the sa ti. The tribulation forced them to walk a fine line between the struggle to survive and to ascend to immortality.
Fortunately, things began to change for them soon. They completed the fusion of their existence with the law matrix. Both Legion-7 and Legion-5 felt the change imdiately.
Their consciousness began producing a ntal power capable of changing the world without the use of Origin energy. It was soul force and it is also capable of opening up a space within the law matrix where their will is supre.
It was ironic that what the void universe feared didn't occur. Legion-7 didn't beco a law eater because he couldn't eat the law fragnts in the law matrix anymore.
The crown of Chaos rejected the law fragnts and the divine ability of the law of order prevented him from devouring laws. So Legion-7 will need other sources of law fragnts such as seeds of power. It doesn't affect him because it is already what he was doing before.
This developnt caused the void universe to ease off the lightning storm. They also increased in power imdiately so the damage of the lightning to them reduced drastically.
Then cosmic energy entered their existence from Helios and their concept engorged freely on it. They reached the limit of the light side of the void universe imdiately.
Two things happened simultaneously at that point. The void universe gave up on harassing them so the lightning tribulation stopped imdiately.
The turbulent whirlpool suddenly lost its montum and died down imdiately. However, they didn't experience the sudden peace because their consciousness was sowhere else.
What they saw was darkness. It was pitch and total darkness. Their soul force couldn't extend out of their minds and they couldn't use a domain. They couldn't even move their bodies. They appeared to be trapped in their mind in this darkness.
They thought to themselves, "This must be the darkness that Soverick saw."
"At least we are not dead yet."
They looked around and saw sothing that made them recognize where they were imdiately. There is nothing in this dark world except for 3 massive consciousnesses.
