Chapter 675 - Nothingness (2/2)

At the thought that Nothingness could very likely be in Osric’s mausoleum, Lin Li even felt a strong urge to return immediately because Nothingness meant more to him than just another piece of the debris of the stars. Although he did not get Raging Flames and Polar Snow, he was already confident that he would get them. If he were to obtain Nothingness too, he would really possess the seven pieces of the debris of the stars again.

The significance of gathering the seven pieces of the debris of the stars was more than the possession of seven powerful arrows. The seven would bring about more than just an increase in combat techniques or upgrade in power. Instead, it was a drastic change.

Each of the seven pieces of the debris of the stars contained different nomological powers, and they were all bred in different environments. However, Lin Li, who truly used all of them before, knew that the seven pieces of the debris of the stars would form a whole new ent.i.ty when pieced together.

Although the separated debris of the stars also had ma.s.sive power, and was certainly above the Legendary-level, the pieces could only exert their true power when they became one in the hands of the same person. The kind of power that they exerted was beyond what an ordinary person could master.

Moreover, as the former owner of the Stars of Fury and the debris of the stars, Lin Li also knew a secret that no one else did. The Laws contained in the seven pieces of the debris of the stars contained all the rules of the basic elements in the world, including all sorts of derived rules. Hence, when one mastered all seven pieces of the debris of the stars, it would be equivalent to mastering all the elements of the world at the same time. The seven basic Laws of the world represented by the seven elements of earth, water, fire, wind, light, darkness, and chaos would also be exposed to the master.

When Lin Li had been a hunter, he might not have benefited much from it, but he was now a Legendary-mage, and Holy Light and Gloomy Dark that he’d obtained previously had brought him great benefits. He’d created the Light and Darkness Domain based on his understanding of the Laws of Light and Darkness. If he a.s.sembled all the seven pieces of the debris of the stars, he would be able to gain a deep understanding of them all. To a Legendary-mage that was already extremely far away from the base Legendary-realm, the benefits were definitely hard to imagine.

Lin Li even felt that when he was holding the seven pieces of the debris of the stars in his hands, he would break through the Legendary-realm, being about to enter the Sanctuary-realm[1]. It was definitely not a delusion, because no one knew the power of the debris of the stars better than he did. Besides, the promotion of a Legendary-mage to the Sanctuary-realm did require a complete mastery of the seven basic Laws to create the World Domain.

However, it was not an easy task to enter Osric’s mausoleum to obtain Nothingness. Lin Li had always thought that Osric being a disciple of the Immortal King was just a legend, and he even thought at some point that the Immortal King had at most given Osric some tips and pointers. However, there was now clear evidence to prove otherwise; hence, Osric’s mausoleum might be more complicated than this Sky Castle.

Indeed, there were various indications that Osric’s mausoleum was very likely to be a threat full of fatal dangers. Hence, Lin Li decided that he had to first study it carefully so as not to accidentally fall into a trap. Lin Like didn’t want to fail in obtaining Nothingness because of his own negligence and even ended up losing his life.

Seeing that he could not obtain any valuable information from Connoris, Lin Li decided to temporarily put this aside in order to avoid arousing the suspicion of Elder Randy. He quickly left the Immortal King’s laboratory.

Lin Li thought that Elder Randy and Cheyenne would have entered the sixth floor by now and begun searching impatiently. However, when he arrived at the sixth floor of the tower, he saw that Cheyenne and Elder Randy were waiting for him and had not entered first.

That really surprised Lin Li. Although everyone had some kind of tacit understanding before, he didn’t think that they would be willing to wait for him there, especially since each of them represented their own forces. When interests were concerned, there seemed to be no need to save any face for others.

However, when he got closer, Lin Li discovered that the people waiting in front of the door of the sixth floor did not seem annoyed or impatient because of waiting, but rather all looked sad and worried.

“Elder Randy, Master Cheyenne, sorry to have made you guys wait,” Lin Li said smilingly, but he did not mention anything about Osric’s note.

[1] It’s a vague part, it could’ve referred to his level as a Hunter before the novel started.
