Void Evolution System

“Phew…”

Elder Trinity let out a breath of relief as she saw the Eclipsing Shadow Lord’s life force fade away. And as soon as she felt his experience enter her body, she removed her hand from his corpse and allowed it to fall to the ground.

The battle had not been easy for her, not in the slightest. Even though her boundary was at the peak of 4th class and the Eclipsing Shadow Lord was still at the late 4th class, he clearly had more talent and comprehension than her, allowing him to fight well beyond his level.

Once one entered the 4th class, they’d become an Emperor of sorts. As such, the ability to fight across levels was far more difficult to attain. Especially because such power would usually be based on comprehensive ability.

Just being able to fight at his level 350 against Elder Trinity’s level 387 made her look at him in appreciation.

“Are you okay?”

Damien’s voice suddenly interrupted her thoughts. When she looked up, she saw his figure approaching casually. A glint flashed through the air as he passed an object to her.

When Elder Trinity caught it, she found a strange jade flask, within being a small marble-like pill.

“This is a top-grade healing pill from the Cloud Plane. It should be able to properly bring you back to your peak condition.” He stated without being asked.

Even if she didn’t tell him, Damien understood the condition of Elder Trinity’s body. After such a harrowing battle where the power of Laws infiltrated her body, it was impossible for her to remain healthy.

Looking at the pill bottle, Elder Trinity hesitantly nodded her head and popped the cap, directly taking the pill into her mouth. As the warm energy currents stored within were released, Elder Trinity let out another sigh, this time of comfort.

Afterwards, she sat silently. Although Damien was standing right beside her, she couldn’t think of a topic of conversation to start with him.

Instead of enduring the awkward air that began to rise between them, she turned her attention to the Eclipsing Shadow Lord’s corpse. From his finger, she pulled off a spatial ring covered in blood and bound it.

“Ah!” She unknowingly exclaimed. “The expedition you’ve dragged us into has actually reaped such a big harvest!”

There were various top-grade pills, manuals and skills from the Eclipsing Shadow Sect, mountains of spirit stones, and more! From the looks of it, Luo Tian had stuffed all of the Eclipsing Shadow Sect’s wealth into his spatial ring before fleeing!

Elder Trinity’s harvest could not be considered light, and by association, Shadow Garden would’ve gained a great deal as well. The rewards from this spatial ring alone were so unimaginable, so what kind of wealth would one accumulate after decades or even centuries of following the Nox?

Elder Trinity couldn’t say she wasn’t tempted, but this was a level of temptation she could easily stave off. Compared to the family that Shadow Garden built, wealth and treasures were nothing.

However, not everyone thought the same. As Damien watched Elder Trinity intermittently exclaim in joy, his face was sour.

‘Fuck…I lost another one…’

Damien warily sighed internally. In truth, there was a problem he’d been having since the very early days of his life, but never addressed since he didn’t mind it too much.

That was, almost every time Damien went into battle, his enemy’s spatial ring would be destroyed.

Damien had a love/hate relationship with spatial rings. They were extremely convenient and useful, not to mention the high-level application of spatial laws necessary to create them. From this standpoint, Damien couldn’t help but admire the artistry and craft.

But at the same time, the “creation” aspect of space within the spatial rings that allowed them to sustain themselves didn’t agree too well with the “destruction” aspect of his own spatial element.

It wasn’t strange for a spatial ring to combust in on itself when it came into contact with his mana, not that this kind of situation occurred often. Instead, the most prevalent cause of destruction was elsewhere.

Whenever Damien fought, he had a tendency of dragging his opponents into the void to give himself a territorial advantage. And naturally, a rogue spatial ring would never be able to survive the chaotic spatial fluctuations in the void. The inner world within would directly collapse.

Luckily, Damien wasn’t materialistic at all. There wasn’t a single heavenly treasure or herb that could compare to his Void Physique and its benefits. And even if there were herbs that trumped this card, Damien wouldn’t be capable of using them.

Therefore, he didn’t mourn the lost spatial rings of the past, he only sighed at the fact that he wasn’t able to celebrate his harvest in the same way Elder Trinity could.

After all, not only did he not gain any treasure, he wasn’t even allowing himself to level up! Damien had essentially fought this harrowing battle for nothing.

But that wasn’t true at all. His gaze panned over the destroyed dimensional realm they stood within. The only ones remaining were disciples of Shadow Garden.

Damien had already helped these lesser disciples herd the weak Eclipsing Shadow Sect members and kill them, so that problem was also solved.

“I guess it’s time to go…?” Damien asked nobody in particular.

But as he got ready to depart, his eyes caught a sudden glint to the side.

“Not good!”

“Watch out!”

Elder Trinity and Damien yelled out at the same time, but they were already too late.

BOOOOOOOOM!

A massive explosion rang out from their side, the dust cloud that spawned from it rose into the heavens and blotted out the sky. A fierce shockwave spread, causing many weaker disciples to cough up blood and collapse onto the ground.

Xiu!

A shadowy figure shot out from the mushroom cloud, utilizing the smoke’s concealment to slip away. Its speed was incredible, crossing hundreds of kilometers every few seconds. But how could this kind of meager skill fool Damien’s eyes?

“Take care of the disciples!”

After leaving the order to Elder Trinity, his figure flashed away in chase of the one running. Although Elder Trinity wanted to take his place since she was much stronger, her words got caught in her mouth.

By the time she started formulating them, Damien was already thousands of kilometers away. When it came to long-distance speed, he wouldn’t lose to anyone.

Elder Trinity frowned deeply as she watched the two receding figures. Her brows creased and a dangerous aura leaked from her body.

Something wasn’t right. She knew that aura.

She clearly killed him, didn’t she? Not only did his life force vanish, but even his experience had also been transferred to her.

Their battle was incredibly fierce. Even if they didn’t use skills or techniques, they poured the entirety of their Law Comprehension into their attacks. This wasn’t something anyone could casually escape from. Even Elder Trinity herself was still in the process of recovering, though she’d rather die than admit it.

All the facts lined up. No matter what perspective one looked at it from, the situation simply didn’t make sense.

Just how in the world did Luo Tian manage to survive while still having enough power to escape so desperately?
