''You know about that, Senior?'' Leon uttered with surprise.


    ''Are you looking down on this turtle?'' the ck Turtle God Beast questioned him with a grumpy tone.


    ''This Old Turtle might be immobilized down here, but this Old Turtle''s senses are still very clear. Did you think this Old Turtle wouldn''t notice when you great such a stir in the Bone Sea?''


    ''I suppose not,'' Leon smiled wryly.


    But then again, it was because he knew that ck Turtle God Beast couldn''t do anything that he didn''t care if the ck Turtle God Beast found out about his abilities in the first ce.


    ''I apologize if I offended you, Senior.''


    ''What is there to apologize? We''ve offended each other enough already. Just drop the matter already,'' the ck Turtle God Beast said.


    ''Nevertheless, you shouldn''t reveal this kind of power carelessly. If you ever n to leave Gaia, this Old Turtle advises that you do not use it at all,'' the ck Turtle God Beast warned him with a firm tone.


    ''It''s fine if the devil-awakened Celestials found out about your Nihility Law since they will either worship you or try to make you a tool for their enriching their cultivation. But if the god-awakened Celestials found out, most of them will hunt you to the end of the world.''


    ''Un, I am aware of this matter, Senior,'' Leon nodded.


    He already had first-hand experience in the Gaia''s Core when he revealed his Nihility Law to the Celestial Ruler of Gaia, Celestial Earthshaker.


    ''Still, my power doesn''t surprise you, Senior?'' Leon asked curiously.


    Considering the ck Turtle God Beast showed no sign of hostility after finding out about his Nihility Law, it appeared that the ck Turtle God Beast favored him like the World Tree, Saint Voidme.


    ''Surprised? Of course, this Old Turtle was surprised!'' The ck Turtle God Beast stated.


    ''However, it''s been three weeks now. Why would this Old Turtle still be surprised about it? Nevertheless, it sure has been a while since another Inheritor of Nihility appeared.''


    ''Another Inheritor of Nihility? There were others before me?'' Leon inquired with a startled look.


    ''Kek,'' the ck Turtle God Beast snickered at his question and said, ''Of course, there are. Did you think you were someone special? That you were the first ever toprehend the Nihility Law?


    ''Ah, but there''s only been one instance of the Inheritor of Nihility appearing before you, so that does make you kind of special…''


    Just as the ck Turtle God Beast''s words brought Leon''s ego down, it shortly raised it back up again.


    Nevertheless, Leon was speechless by what the ck Turtle God Beast said.


    Although it turned out that he wasn''t the first in history, he was still the second. Yet, that was only enough to be ''kind of special'' in the ck Turtle God Beast''s eyes.


    ''Where is that Inheritor of Nihility now?'' Leon asked.


    ''Dead,'' the ck Turtle God Beast stated without hesitation before adding further, ''Hunted by everyone in the God Realm.''


    ''Oh?'' Leon uttered with surprise before asking, ''Even the demons? Just what did this person do that everyone would even join forces with demons to get rid of that person?''


    ''That person was regarded as the God of Destruction, Shiva. He didn''t care for anyone nor ept any followers; he killed everyone and everything as if he had a strong hatred for the world,'' the ck Turtle God Beast stated.


    ''That was the only reason the entire God Realm could work together to destroy Shiva. Thus, it is important that you hide your power well. Because depending on what you do, you could also be regarded as the seconding of Shiva and get hunted by all of the God Realm.''


    ''I understand, Senior,'' Leon nodded with a firm.


    Although he was already that the Nihility Law wasn''t something that could be shown in public, he didn''t understand its significance to the God Realm until he heard the story of Shiva from the ck Turtle God Beast.


    At the same time, he thought Shiva was quite the appropriate name as its literal meaning is ''that which is not.''


    In other words, Shiva means nothing; it is the nothingness from which everything came.


    After summoning the Nihility Barrier to catch his air in the bottom of the Bone Sea, Leon wondered, ''How strong was Shiva when he fell?''


    ''Half-step True Divinity,'' the ck Turtle God Beast answered.


    ''Only a Half-step True Divinity?''


    ''What do you mean only?'' the ck Turtle God Beast snickered and said, ''Half-step True Divinity is already the strongest power anyone can possess in the current era.''


    ''Huh? Has no one achieved True Divinity since the end of the primordial era, Senior?'' Leon asked with surprise.


    ''None,'' the ck Turtle God Beast stated with hesitation before adding, ''It''s extremely difficult to be True Divinity in this era—or rather, it might just be impossible.''


    ''The damage sustained in the Great War practically ruined Primal Chaos and shut off the path of the evesting. Shiva''s incident only served to strengthen that idea further after he rampaged across the God Realm.''


    Leon frowned after he heard that.


    Although he was disappointed to hear that the world no longer had any True Divinities despite the rich primordial heritage scattered across the world, Half-step True Divinity was still more than enough strength to seed in his revenge.


    Nevertheless, there was one thing that baffled him.


    ''There''s something I don''t understand, Senior," Leon mentioned.


    ''Being the second Inheritor of Nihility, I am bound to bebeled the Second Coming of Shiva, a disaster that will bring an end to the world with this power. So howe you don''t have any intention to kill me at all?''


    He highly doubted that it was because the ck Turtle God Beast regarded him as its kin.


    ''You don''t know much, do you, boy?'' the ck Turtle God Beast said.


    ''Did you thinkprehending the Nihility Law alone is enough to make you a disaster for the world? The answer is no.. You can be the world''s ender, but you can equally be its savior.''
