Chapter 515: Breaking the Limit

The scattered fragments of primordial law left in the void were forcefully pulled in by the resonance ring. They turned into the purest nourishment and poured into the young seedling of the Law of Light.

On the first day, the seedling stretched out.

On the fifth day, it was full of green life.

On the tenth day, Aiden’s understanding of the Law of Light soared from 3% to 8%!

At that moment, the operating efficiency of the entire law garden increased by a full thirty percent.

Aiden did not stop. He waved his sleeve.

Seven crystals floated in the air, each giving off a strange and powerful aura.

Pride, envy, wrath, greed, sloth, lust, and gluttony.

These were seven recognition crystals, each representing an extreme emotion and a law.

The second ten days began.

"The first one, pride."

Aiden flicked his finger. The Pride Crystal shattered with a boom and turned into an illusory black dragon, rushing straight toward the core of the law garden.

Roar!

The black dragon roared and tried to fight back.

"Suppress it!"

Aiden’s double—pupiled eyes suddenly opened wide. The pressure of an Intermediate God turned into an invisible giant hand, pinning the black dragon firmly inside the core cycle.

The violent energy began to merge.

Then came envy, wrath, greed...

Each time a crystal was merged, the law garden shook violently, and the divine pressure it released became even more terrifying.

When the energy of the last Gluttony Crystal was fully devoured, the flood of laws inside Aiden let out a roar like a tsunami.

With the crystals resonating one after another, his comprehension of the law was forcefully pushed to 69%.

He was only one step away from the 70% mark.

"Still not fast enough."

Aiden looked at the ten days he had left, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.

For the final ten days, he would use the plan marked on the evolution node map:

Forced Acceleration — Medium Risk.

"Thunder, rise!"

Boom!

Countless bolts of purple—gold divine lightning exploded inside the law garden. But they did not spread outward. Instead, they wove together, forming a huge circular acceleration path within the garden.

This was a law acceleration tunnel!

Aiden threw all the remaining law fragments into the tunnel.

Driven madly by the Law of Thunder, the speed of the law fragments was pushed to the limit.

They began to collide at high speed.

With every collision, the most primitive and violent sparks of law were created, then forced into Aiden’s soul.

But the price was clear.

The high—frequency shockwaves from the collisions began to leave tiny cracks across the entire law garden.

The resonance field was showing faint signs of losing control.

Terrifying waves of energy spilled out of the secret chamber. Even the obsidian walls outside began to crack like spiderwebs.

Outside the chamber door.

Cheryl stood guard, dressed in a combat shrine—maiden robes and holding her staff. Her expression was tense.

Because of the energy shockwaves, her hair whipped wildly in the strong wind.

She knew Aiden was making a huge gamble.

At the most critical moment, a narrow crack suddenly opened in the tightly shut stone door of the secret chamber.

Aiden appeared behind the door. His clothes were soaked with sweat, but his eyes were terrifyingly bright.

"Cheryl."

Aiden spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Aiden!"

Cheryl hurried forward, her eyes full of worry.

Aiden reached out with his right hand and grabbed Cheryl’s warm little hand.

His grip was very strong, and the heat of the Law of Thunder still lingered in his palm.

"Listen."

Aiden stared hard into her eyes, his tone leaving no room for doubt.

"I’m about to turn the acceleration to full power. The resonance field could collapse at any moment."

"If the shockwaves really go out of control, you must rush in at once. Use your Miko power to force me awake and get me out."

Cheryl bit her red lip and nodded firmly.

"I understand. Even if it kills me, I’ll drag you out!"

Aiden looked at the determination in her eyes. The corner of his mouth lifted slightly, forming a proud, fearless smile.

He gently squeezed her soft hand.

"If the shockwaves really come, don’t be afraid."

"Remember, I’m the one who told you to come in."

After saying that, he let go of her hand and turned around, walking firmly back into the secret chamber swallowed by raging thunder.

The stone door slammed shut.

Boom!

The moment the stone door closed, all distracting thoughts vanished from Aiden’s mind.

The final ten days.

Forced acceleration—begin!

Buzz—

Inside the law garden, the thunder tunnel lit up with a blinding glow. The collision rate of the fragments instantly shot up to five times the normal level!

A violent flood of laws raged deep inside Aiden’s soul, like millions of sharp blades carving at his Inner Spirit again and again.

The first three days were a brutal battle between willpower and pain.

Late on the third night, a clear cracking sound rang out in Aiden’s mind.

70%!

His comprehension of the law had finally crossed that huge barrier!

But this was only the beginning of the madness.

On the fifth day, the first wave of law shockwaves arrived without any warning.

Crack.

At the edge of the silver resonance channel of the Law of Space, a tiny black rift suddenly tore open.

The entire law garden began to shake violently. The raging energy was about to go completely out of control.

"Stabilize!"

Aiden’s double—pupiled eyes snapped wide open, his voice carrying absolute authority.

He did not choose to stop.

Because once he stopped, everything would be lost.

The silver high—level Law of Space turned into countless thin divine chains. Like a needle pulling thread, they forcefully stitched the crack in the void shut.

At the same time, the violent purple—gold thunder turned into giant pillars reaching toward the sky, taking over the acceleration load in the damaged area by force.

He controlled two things at once with almost godlike skill!

The rift was forcefully erased. Not only did the acceleration cycle continue, it became even faster because of the wild thunder.

On the seventh day, his comprehension of the law broke through like nothing could stop it, passing 71% and finally settling firmly at 72%!

This was the upper limit Aiden had set before entering seclusion.

But before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, a second and even more terrifying shockwave erupted.

Buzz!

Deep inside the law garden, the heavy crystal that represented "Greed" suddenly went completely out of control under the pressure of five—times acceleration.

Endless black Greed law energy burst out like a volcanic eruption, instantly pushing the entire channel to the edge of collapse.

Overload!

Extreme overload!

This was the deadly problem Yves had specially marked in his notes, yet had never managed to fully solve in his lifetime—

Greed Node: Overload Balance.

Greed had no limit.

The faster it was pushed, the more it would destroy itself.

"Greed, huh?"

A cold smile curved Aiden’s lips.

In his mind, the scenes he had once seen while studying the Pillar of Greed flashed by like lightning.

"No matter how endless your hunger is, I will decide where it stops."

"Enough."

The moment Aiden spoke those two words, it was as if a god deep inside his soul opened its eyes.

The Law of Space turned into a giant net that covered the sky, locking onto every path of eruption from the Greed Crystal with perfect accuracy.

Release—locked down.

Overload—suppressed.

On the edge of life and death, Aiden used the will of "enough" as his core and found the perfect balance point that even Yves had never touched.

The raging Greed energy instantly became as gentle as a lamb. It turned into the purest nourishment and flowed back into the entire law garden.

On the tenth day, the last spark of law faded inside the thunder tunnel.

Boom!

An unspeakably terrifying divine power swept out of Aiden’s body like a tsunami. Even the obsidian chamber groaned under the pressure, as if it could no longer hold.

His comprehension of the law finally stopped at—

73%!

He had surpassed the original 72% limit and broken through the limits of a mortal!

The once—weak Law of Light burst out with endless radiance at that moment. Its understanding level was forcefully raised from 8% to 12%!

His law resonance level also crossed a huge gap in one step, rising to a stable mid—to—high level!

It was done!

Rumble—

The obsidian stone door, sealed for thirty days, slowly opened to both sides.

Through the rolling dust, Aiden stepped out. The power of law around him was hidden and controlled, yet he carried a supreme dignity that made others feel awe without him saying a word.

Cheryl, who had been waiting outside the door, saw him and her beautiful eyes lit up. She quickly went to meet him.

But when she saw what he looked like, a trace of heartache flashed in her eyes.

"Aiden, you’ve lost weight," Cheryl said softly.

Aiden smiled faintly. His eyes were as deep as the starry sky.

"The laws don’t need body weight."

Cheryl took a step closer. She raised her warm little hand and gently wiped away the burn marks left by law resonance on his robe.

"Where are we going next?" Cheryl asked, looking up at him.

Aiden turned his head. His deep gaze seemed to pierce through layers of space, aiming straight toward the core of Earth.

"Next—"

A proud, fearless smile rose at the corner of Aiden’s mouth.

"We go answer those three questions."

...

At the deepest part of Earth, around the planet’s core.

This was a dead zone of gravity and a raging furnace of laws.

Violent dark—red lava mixed with drifting Void Storms. Any Reclasser below the Venerable level would be torn apart in an instant.

And yet, two figures moved through this land of destruction as if they were taking a quiet walk.

Aiden walked in front.

His black hair flew behind him, and faint silver, purple—gold, and pure white lights flowed around his body.

They were signs of the perfect fusion of Space, Thunder, and the Law of Light.

Right behind him was Cheryl, holding her Miko short staff, her expression alert.

"Aiden, it’s just ahead," Cheryl reminded him softly, her beautiful eyes filled with seriousness.

At the end of their sight, a huge golden gate stood quietly in the void.

It was ancient and majestic, as if it had existed since the birth of the universe. A suffocating holy pressure spread from it.

Aiden stopped a hundred meters in front of the golden gate.

Buzz!

As if sensing Aiden’s arrival, the law mark on the golden gate was instantly activated.

It was the mark Aiden had left behind before his seclusion.

Boom!

Without any hesitation, Aiden released the Force of Laws he had just stabilized.

His 73% comprehension of the law erupted at full power!

His stable mid—to—high level Law Resonance turned into visible waves of colored light, crashing hard against the golden gate.

The entire golden gate shook violently.

Its once—dim surface suddenly burst with dazzling golden light under the resonance of the laws.

The light was so bright that it instantly wiped out the Void Storms for tens of thousands of miles around it.

Aiden’s eyes flashed like lightning. Using his Inner Spirit as a guide, he forced a thought formed from law resonance into the gate.

"Aiden of the Great Shaw Empire requests entry. Open the gate!"

His words exploded through Earth’s core like thunder from the highest heavens.
