Dimensional Descent

Leonel exhaled as the momentum of his breakthrough finally

slowed.

Looking down at himself, he still seemed calm. His body seemed to be in a terrible state on the surface, but he had never felt better... at least mentally.

On top of that...

SHUUU! BANG! BANG!

He tore through barriers in the Seventh Dimension one after another. From Tier 1 to 2, and then from 2 to 3. His momentum didn’t slow until he was already a 7th Tier Seventh Dimensional existence.

His body rippled with power.

’So this is it...’

The formation of a Dharma came with a strong connection with Existence. During this process, it would allow one a chance to accelerate progress if the opportunity could be grasped.

Leonel had squandered the opportunity before because he had to put a great deal of effort into suppressing his Crown down from the Idol level to the Dharma level. That had wasted much of the energy he could have taken advantage of for himself.

Luckily, he had been able to use his King Force to

reverse-engineer a breakthrough for him, going ”back in time” to multiply all of the training he had already done and making it more effective. It was a broken ability; even he had to admit that.

But this time, the breakthrough was much more straightforward... However, if an outsider was observing this, they would have a very

different opinion. That was because it was far too ridiculous for Leonel to form a Dharma of such quality and only move seven Tiers up.

It wasn’t rare for a genius of Leonel’s caliber to leap ahead an entire Dimension. Of course, that was only if they were around the Seventh Dimension like he was.

There were several Gods with full Idols that were still stuck in the lower Tiers of the Ninth Dimension because of how difficult it was to progress within it.

If a genius of Leonel’s caliber was in the Ninth Dimension for some reason when they first formed their Dharma, then moving forward a single tier would already be a miracle.

However, judging by the fact Leonel had only moved seven Tiers forward, it was clear that even this Dharma wouldn’t allow him to move a single inch if he had been in the Ninth Dimension.

This was well within Leonel’s expectations. As powerful as his father’s Dimensional Method was, the drawbacks were obvious.

Not only had he had to climb through hellfires and scale mountains of blades just to make it to the Sixth Dimension, but now, even without such ridiculous requirements to meet, the sheer amount of energy he needed was astronomical.

This was why he had to come here. This place was the only location where he could progress so fast, and yet... it still wasn’t enough.

That was because Leonel knew that he would have to improve his father’s [Final Destruction] Dimensional Method very soon.

Or, rather, ”improve” wasn’t really the right word. The Dimensional Method was already shocking enough. When it was matched with his [Dimensional Cleanse], it was like a tiger had gained wings.

There was no doubt in Leonel’s mind, after he had come to the God Realm, that he practiced the strongest combination method in Existence.

The trouble was that he wasn’t a Destruction Sovereign like he had always assumed. He was a Creation Sovereign.

[Final Destruction], as a result, was actually misaligned with his abilities. It was actually weakening him.

Of course, that was too simple of an explanation. If it was just ”weakening” him, he wouldn’t be growing so strong.

But if there was a hypothetically neutral technique that was just as powerful as [Final Destruction], and he practiced it instead, Leonel calculated that he would be twice as powerful as he was now.

If he took it a step further, and there was a theoretical [Final Creation] technique instead... let alone twice as powerful, he would be dozens of times stronger than he was now.

This was what he meant by [Final Destruction] making him weaker.

That said...

Leonel finally completely relaxed, exhaling a breath and taking a breath. With just this breath, his wounds began to heal at a visible

speed.

He didn’t use [Instant Recovery]; he didn’t have to... If a Destruction Sovereign destroyed, then he created.

He had spent his entire life thinking that he didn’t have great Life Force affinity. Vital Star Force had come exceptionally hard to him. It was like pulling teeth trying to improve his comprehension of the Force just by a single inch.

Yet, ironically enough, one of his most powerful self-created

techniques came precisely from Vital Star Force, a Life Force...

[Star Fusion].

How did he square the two?

The reality was that he had never had poor Life Force affinity. His

Life Force affinity was exceptional. So shocking that it was no

longer even considered Life Force.

It crossed over into new realms, touching upon the Second

Dimension, and inevitably the First.

It was just that he never understood how to tap into it. He wasn’t even aware that it existed in the first place.

Leonel closed his eyes for a moment and exhaled another breath.

When he opened them once more, there was a vibrancy to his aura that made the stars pale.

The healthy glow of his skin became fiercer. It was almost as though he had concentrated starlight into his very body.

His Innate Node began to change, and Star Force descended in

droves.

It was said that no one had a Star Force affinity. Most didn’t even understand what that meant. Star Force was a foundational Force, and it was the reason Force could even be disseminated throughout the universe, but it was hard to pin down just exactly what Star Force was.

As for Leonel, he might not be able to explain it just yet...

But he could sure as hell use it.

Leonel’s body flickered and vanished, leaving the corridor.

When his eyes opened once more, he found himself surrounded by spearmen before his eyes opened wide.
