Chapter 1440 The Source Of Laws (1/2)

As the mine pit shook more and more violently, Leland's face turned paler and paler.

Merle narrowed his eyes and looked around, but he didn't feel as anxious, perhaps because he didn't use his brain as much as Leland did.

”Is it going to collapse? That'd be great! I'd finally be able to get out!” On the contrary, Merle was very excited. He had felt trapped and had wanted to leave this damned place a long time ago.

He longed for strength, but he never cultivated by himself, because he felt that the process was too slow.

”No! Something is wrong!”

Leland screeched anxiously.

He could feel that the force that was causing the quakes spread from the inside to the outside, rather than from the outside to the inside.

That was to say, this mine pit was not being attacked by any powerful fiend god from the outside.

If that was the case, where was the force coming from?

To Leland, the answer was obvious.

He lowered his head and looked at the Rule Soul Avatar, who was sitting on the ground, covered in a fine layer of dust.

Invisible law ripples spread out, striking the mine pit, yet he and Merle remained unaffected.

Leland frowned in confusion. He had never felt such a law before.

”How strange...”

Now that he knew there was no danger awaiting them outside, he heaved a sigh of relief. He then concentrated on observing the Rule Soul Avatar.

After a while, he felt as though something was swaying in front of him, which made him dizzy.

Then, a strong tearing force suddenly pulled him towards a black vortex.

The feeling could only be likened to that of a small boat being sucked into the vast sea, waves crashing all over it, as though he was about to be smashed into smithereens at any given moment.

Once more, fear seized Leland's heart.

Meanwhile, Merle seemed to not have encountered anything out of the ordinary. He was still curiously looking around, trying to figure out why the mine pit was shaking.
