<h4>Chapter 737 - Seeking Insight-level Transcendent</h4>
Given Darlene''s profound Void Soul Constitution, Leon figured that she might be able toprehend something from it once her improved soul increases her perception.
Thus, Darlene had her Void Soul Constitution, 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 space on the treetop andmenced 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 ck and white, darkness and light, forming an inflexible bnce and rtionship.''
''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 brainwashing him into such belief.
However, Leonprehended the Nihility Law and knew only it deserved to be called supreme.
Even so, the greater devils and gods 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 ced 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 gods 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 oveps.
Each great god and devil took the element of their cultivation art to be the supreme element in the firmament.
''Even a primary elementalw like Fire Law is proimed to be the strongest power in the Brahma Fire God''s Eternal me Scripture…''
Leon pondered.
Of course, Fire Law is still Fire Law. But to the Brahma Fire God, it became the Eternal me Law.
Suddenly, Leon felt a sh 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 gods and devils'' history, he could not learn.
However, their cultivation arts contained the cumtion 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 arepletely 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 otherws can''t reach the same height as Nihility Law, they will still be 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 ultimatew in primal chaos? Why can''t anyw be supreme?''
Questions were formed in Leon''s mind.
Even if he has the Nihility Law, which he believes to be the supremew, Leon still can''t beat Celestials and Demon Lords with his current cultivation level.
Thus, he understood another truth.
There was no supremew, only supreme beings; whatever the supreme beings use will be the supremew.
''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 toprehend 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 necessaryprehension level.
Nevertheless, his will isn''t infinite.
Unless he could continue improving his soul, he will have to keepprehending thews normally to attain higher levels.
