Pain… a sensation that most hunters rarely feel in their daily lives. Thanks to their biology, awakened beings had a high pain tolerance. They could receive heavy attacks from their opponents and recover quickly.
Then, there was Alexander‒ The Veilwalker‒ a monster with no limits to how powerful he could get. Yet, the pain he was going through was more than enough to kill any normal S-Tier hunter.
'Fuck….!!'
Alex was having a hard ti ignoring the pain as he zood across the void with the void creature hot on him.
Ti was aningless to the two as he didn't know how long he had been here. And they were a long way away from the veil tear they ca through.
Even then, Alex could sense its presence. It was like he could never lose sight of the location, so he wasn't worried about getting back ho.
'This thing is relentless!' Alex continued to back away, his teeth clenched tightly. 'Whatever that black thing is, I don't think it's sothing I can just grasp.'
'I have to do sothing.' Alex resolved while a portion of his attention fell on his severed hand.
It refused to heal after Alex and even when he tried energy infusion, it didn't work.
'There's sothing I'm missing.' Splitting another portion of his awareness, Alex focused on his surroundings. 'I didn't notice it before, but now that I am taking a closer look, this place is lawless.'
Back in the universe, energy was put together in a very delicate and precise way, each unique with its set of rules that took shape to beco matter.
The fabric of spaceti was the sa. But this place was different. Aside from void energy, the magical energy humans knew of had no shape or form.
Magical energy was just that; energy. If not put in a certain order, they would be nothing but just chaos. The only laws Alex detected so far were himself and the void creature.
'And my abilities work just fine.' Alex observed the peculiarity. 'Probably because it's void energy.
'And the magical energy here…it's like a blank canvas I can mould into whatever I want, just like the quark-gluon plasma.'
Alex looked at his severed hand with an enlightened glint in his eyes.
'I can't heal this at this point, but this will have to do.'
He tapped into his void energy as he guided it to the stump. Alex moulded the energy and conjured the severed part with his energy. It was not the real thing, but it was enough‒for now.
'Now then…' Alex turned his entire focus on the void creature that was relentlessly trying to kill him. It would occasionally unleash streams of that black essence which Alex would dodge without hesitation.
Alex did not engage the creature and had been evading its attacks for a while now. His Voidflare form had gotten to a point where he was matched with the void creature in terms of speed and power.
'Hand-to-hand combat is suicide, and any conjured weapon might not be enough. Laws and maybe abilities could do the trick.'
Alex evaded another swipe at his head with ease, backing away slightly and then unleashed a torrential wave of intense flas that surged towards the creature. Its size rivalled a star and was just as hot.
The creature backed away with a low growl as a portion of its body was charred. Of course, the burned spot healed just as fast.
Unlike their weaker brethren, void creatures at his level didn't receive greater damage than normal when dealing with void energy.
The void creature glared at Alexander with extre bloodlust, wanting nothing more than to shred him apart.
It had tried to kill Alex for a while and hadn't gotten very far since his earlier advantage. Its unique ability wasn't very useful against the kind of opponents it dealt with and could only rely on that black essence.
Man and void creature stood millions of kilotres apart, taking a break after a long repetitive battle. With their speed and power matched at this point, the fight could go either way.
Suddenly the creature moved, not surprising Alex in the slightest. His eyes followed the creature's movent and responded just as fast.
He tapped into his abilities, combining his telekinetic force with his light elent. The telekinetic force slamd into the creature, slowing it down considerably while Alex willed the light elent into large spikes that impaled the creature from all sides.
However, the void creature was no average opponent. It mostly shrugged off the telekinetic force while swiftly evading the spikes, deflecting the ones it couldn't dodge with its claws.
A few found their way into his flesh, yet the creature just groaned and continued on its path towards Alex.
'As I thought, my abilities might not be enough.' Alex flew back to maintain as much distance as he could from the void creature. 'Laws should be the way…'
The little he knew about laws was already in existence. He could see how they were put together and could simply mimic it.
All he needed was ti to familiarize himself with the rules and he could do anything he imagined. It was honestly freaky.
But outside the borders of his universe, there was only chaos. But then a realization hit him like a powerful wave. It caused him to slow down and was all the creature needed to arrive before him. Read latest chapters on My Virtual Library Empire
But that mont of enlightennt was not wasted. Despite the incoming strike that could cleave portions of a galaxy away, Alex did not panic.
'I may not be in the universe right now, but I have my own universe.' Alex grinned as he spun around, evading the attack and then shifted to appear behind the creature.
BOOOM…!!!
A powerful kick to the back of the void creature sent it hurtling through the void, the montum too overwhelming to dispel so easily.
A sliver of his awareness entered his inner realm appearing right before the black hole. It had only one purpose: to get familiar with the rules of creation.
Whatever it learnt, he would know. He had all the resources he needed to beco the strongest version of himself and he was finally using it.
