Chapter 255 - Traversing the Myriad Worlds (1/2)

Celestial Plane, within Kurohana's plane.

A couple of days have passed since Kurohana's plans of enhancing her power to break through the Immortal Verdict Wielder level had started. At this moment, not much of a difference could be seen on the two people that resided within the confines of the pure white cube, which were Kurohana and Shirohana respectively. But if one peered in closely through the auras that they exuded, one would be surprised that their power had improved by quite a significant amount when compared to a few days ago.

Since Shirohana had most of the power that Kurohana had, she was tasked by Kurohana to master and control more of the Greater Law of Reincarnation. For the past couple of days, she had not moved from the corner of the white cube she positioned herself in, maintaining a calm and composed expression while she sat cross-legged, her body still attuning to the laws of the universe.

Comparing the movement of the laws around her right now from before, the movement of the laws right now was a bit more vigorous and forceful, allowing one to feel an impending sense of danger from the aura emitted by her alone. In actuality, the improvement in the movement of the laws was more or less minuscule, but this minuscule improvement that resulted from two continuous days of assiduous pondering was more than enough for Kurohana to shatter 4 galaxies instead of 3 with the move she used back then to test her power.

As for Kurohana, she still sat on the white chair she had conjured, with the orb reflecting Aurus's condition hovering in front of her. Throughout these past few days, the image that was on the orb had been the same. It was that of Aurus in his unconscious state. Although the sight would look boring to a layman, to Kurohana, who had a decent amount of knowledge of the laws in the universe, even Aurus's evolution process gave her some insights on what she could do to improve her prowess over the Greater Law of Reincarnation, which she would share with Shirohana from time to time by exchanging pointers.

”It has been almost four days since Aurus has started his evolution process,” she muttered to herself as she focused on the flow of energy around Aurus's unconscious body. Surprisingly, there was a hint of a greater power, which differed from the laws gods and goddesses use, coursing throughout the cocoon where he was encapsulated as well. After a few more minutes, she decided that looking at Aurus's evolution process became quite boring.

With that in mind, she decided to shift her point of a view to Aurus's clone, Argentum, for a short bit.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the image on the orb, which used to be that of a green translucent cocoon gradually pulsating every once in a while, had changed to that of a humanoid made out of green energy and a humanoid made out of blue energy.

”Oh?” Looking at the current image on the orb, Kurohana's eyebrows could not help but slightly raise with interest, wondering how Aurus's clone had gotten to this current situation. ”Judging from the aura exuded by the humanoid made with blue energy, it seems to be the owner of the inheritance Aurus's clone is in.”

”I wonder why his clone would be in a place that's not of the same element,” she muttered to herself in a slightly curious tone, her brain working on overdrive for a few seconds as multiple thoughts and conclusions surfaced on her mind. Eventually, she discarded all of it as she remembered that Aurus's clone was not a part of her plan in improvement at all, deciding to just look at him for a while to stave off a bit of the boredom that came with the plan.

”It's not like I care anyway,” she said a few seconds later as she shrugged her shoulders in indifference. Whatever Aurus's clone would do did not have anything to do with her at all. If his clone reached the Divinity-level, which would be the ideal situation in her mind, then it would be great, allowing the birth of a god that could surpass the gaps in existence level. But if his clone did not reach it, although she would be disappointed since she had influenced his clone quite a bit in order to give Aurus's clone an edge, she would not go out of her way to manipulate fate to save his clone.

Letting out a sigh of boredom, she infused her energy into the orb to return the image on it to that of Aurus's cocoon once again. After that, she stood up from her chair and lightly stretched her body for a bit before hastily making a clone that was made out of pure energy. She then tasked this energy clone to watch over the orb in case anything special happens before going ahead and heading towards where Shirohana was.

As she sat cross-legged in front of her clone, Shirohana opened her eyes to briefly look at what her original body was doing. Closing her eyes soon after, she asked in a hushed voice, ”Exchanging pointers?”

In response, Kurohana closed her eyes as well as she attuned her body to the laws of the universe. A few seconds later, a connection between her and Shirohana had been formed, with a connection from far away attaching to the connection the two had as well. Sensing that every clone she had was now connected as one, she then replied to Shirohana's words, saying, ”More or less. But this time, let's use Haihana's current senses as a reference to improve our understanding of the Greater Law of Reincarnation. Once we improve it, her power would improve as well, thus allowing her to head to more treacherous worlds.”

A deafening silence soon covered the two just as Kurohana was finished talking, only for it to be broken as Shirohana responded, ”Alright.”

Whoosh! Whoosh!

After about half a minute or so, the aura radiating from the two of them had gradually merged, forming into a singular entity as their thoughts and senses were connected. This fusion allowed them to obtain a better perception over the laws of the universe, with their rate of improvement now becoming somewhat visible as the movement of the laws surrounding them became more vigorous after a certain amount of time.

…

While Shirohana and Kurohana were expounding upon their understanding of the Greater Law of Reincarnation, Haihana, which was Kurohana's latest clone to be made, was following her original body's orders to a T. Currently, she was inside a world that had a power system extremely different from the one that the world Aurus was in had. Although the end goal was the same, which was reaching the level of Divinity, the method this world used was more focused on the refinement of their bodies and the lengthening of their lifespans, allowing them to live carefree lives as pseudo-immortals.

The name of the world where Haihana was currently in was Changliang, a world filled to the brim with immortals and beings that were quite close to the level of deities. At the very instant she had entered this world, the first thing she made sure of was the amount of power she could exert in this world.

After a few attempts, she was quite surprised that the amount of power she could exert in this world was around half of the power she had in her body as a whole. Fortunately, after scrounging through the memories of a few natives that eyed her body with lascivious gazes, she was able to estimate that her power was on the same level as someone at the Soul Unity realm in this world.

Although the Soul Unity realm was not a level of power wherein one would achieve pseudo-immortality, it was still a realm that was incredibly hard for people in this world to achieve, allowing Haihana to have more confidence in obtaining more experience without being hindered by strong opponents.

Just as she was about to start traversing throughout the world of Changliang, a thought surfaced on her mind. 'Now that I think about it, if I were to traverse the world alone with this current appearance of mine, not only would I have multiple people chase me for my beauty, they would also try to coerce me to join their organization as much as possible, seeing as how much power I currently wield.'

Whoosh! Whoosh!
