Despite being one step short of the Transcendent Realm, Darlene's Spatial Law could only be used to kill creatures below the Ranked Awakener Realm, showcasing the Spatial Law's severe lack of offensive power.
However, if one thought this was all there was to the Spatial Law, they would be wrong.
'While the Spatial Law severely lacks offensive power at the lower levels, the Spatial Law's offensive power at higher levels are to be absolutely feared,' Leon silently mused.
He looks forward to the day when Darlene can wield her Spatial Law at the higher levels. It would be a sight to behold.
A few monts later, the surrounding temperature began to drop as frigid mist and snowflakes perated the area, causing the surface of the ground to freeze upon contact.
Swish~!
Leon's wall of flas was quickly extinguished as ice pillars rose from the frozen ground, forming a wall of ice that sealed everyone inside with the demons while blocking out the Hellbiters from coming close to the tomb entrance.
No doubt, it was Aria's ice-lightning ability as traces of white lightning flowed within the ice walls like running circuits.
"I've removed Hellbiter's threat. With my ice wall in place, it should allow us to focus on the demons without worries," Aria stated.
Leon was quickly amused before he asked with a teasing smile, "Wasn't my wall of fire doing just that until you snuffed it out?"
"Fire burns out quickly, but ice will stay for a longer period, enough for us to wipe out these demons and explore the tomb if we intend to enter after," Aria explained.
"True…"
Leon rubbed his chin thoughtfully while briefly glancing at the Hellbiter's trying to climb the ice-lightning walls—only to be paralyzed with electrifying coldness before falling and crumbling into pieces.
With the number of Hellbiter's outside, the ice-lightning walls would not be able to hold them back forever, but it would definitely last much longer than his wall of fire that burns quickly.
"We should help senior finish off the Greater Demons quickly before more demons arrive," Aria suggested objectively.
Not far away, rumbles of the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman's fight with the Greater Demons could be felt with each clash and exchange of blows inside the sealed area around the central tree.
Seeing the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman's excited look, Leon shook his head and said, "It seems like it has been a long ti since senior has fought like this. As such, we shouldn't get in his way."
"But…"
"But it's also true that we shouldn't waste too much ti here. Their battle will draw too much attention," Leon added before muttering thoughtfully, "I suppose it's ti I try that…"
"That…?"
Aria expressed her confusion, uncertain of what Leon was referring to.
However, it did not take long before Aria felt the ground rumbling softly as an invisible bore down on her and everyone else in the vicinity like they had just gained extra weight.
Everyone was caught by surprise.
The pressure did not press down on them. Instead, it was their bodies that have beco heavy, making their movents slightly sluggish.
Nevertheless, such restriction was negligible with their powerful physiques.
Only Darlene and Aria felt slightly more difficult to stand with their untrained bodies as they stared at Leon with difficult expressions.
"What kind of ability is this? It seems like gravity has been increased by a few folds," Aria uttered with a stupefied look as the pressure was lifted.
At the sa ti, the remaining Greater Demons experienced an even greater pressure, causing a montary lapse in their reaction and movent that resulted in being dealt a fatal blow by the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman.
"It's because gravity did increase," Leon stated before explaining further, "I found out that if the Earth Law and tal Law is fused, it can produce gravity. However, I have yet to test the limits of gravitational force."
"We have been together these past few days, and it could be said to have been quite busy. When did you have the ti to figure out sothing like this?" Aria asked with amazent.
"I'll explain later," Leon smiled before apologizing to the approaching One-Eyed Venerable Shaman, "Sorry for cutting your fight short while you were enjoying yourself, senior."
"Nevermind it," the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman waved his hand with a shake of his head helplessly before saying, "We don't have the luxury to enjoy ourselves here."
"Un. I suppose it's ti to enter the tomb. Those earlier demons seed quite knowledgeable about this tomb. So there's a chance that they will be able to clear the trials," Leon ntioned.
"Yeah, let us enter now," Chief Baskara quickly agreed before adding, "If we wait too long, it might be too late to regret when the demons get their hands on the inheritance and beco too strong for us to handle."
A few monts later, the group decides to wrap things up outside and enter the Abyssal Wood Demon King's tomb promptly without hesitation.
Of course, Leon did not spare any of the demon corpses as they were all pocketed into his Worldspace.
'Now is not a good ti. I will find a chance to refine their Origin Blood later,' Leon silently decided before being the last to step inside.
Swish~!
Aria shortly added another layer of ice to seal the tomb entrance completely before saying to the group, "It would be troubleso if the Hellbiters flood the tomb while we are inside. This should buy us more ti."
"Miss Aria is quite ticulous," the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman praised with a smile while wiping traces of demon blood off his bone sword.
As the group descended the flight of stairs, the original traces of dim light within the forest sank into complete darkness along with a drop in temperature.
Such darkness did not hinder Leon's vision, but he still snapped his fingers and summoned a flicker of fire to illuminate the dark space for the others.
'Do you have ti to explain now?' Aria suddenly transmitted her voice into Leon's mind directly as they continued on their way down.
After a brief pause, Leon smiled before replying via voice transmission back to Aria, 'You're very curious about this, aren't you? In fact, it's not that big of a deal. I am capable of parallel thoughts.'
'Parallel thoughts?'
