The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 435 Rules

"This is somewhat interesting."

Lilith's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile that was both wicked and provocative.

In an instant, her eyes suddenly turned pitch black, like two deep black holes, ready to devour all the light in the world.

A dense, almost tangible darkness surged outwards from her center, spreading wildly like a raging tide.

In the blink of an eye, the once bright space became pitch black, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, as if the whole world had fallen into eternal darkness.

In this inky darkness, only a sliver of light flickering between Wes's fingers, like the only flame of hope in the darkness, stubbornly danced, illuminating a small corner of the world.

"Bloom!"

With a low shout, the tiny speck of light, originally the size of a bean, burst forth with dazzling brilliance, spreading outwards with an unstoppable momentum.

Light and darkness collided fiercely in that instant, like two equally matched giants engaging in a breathtaking and desperate battle.

Light and darkness intertwined and entangled, constantly distorting the surrounding space and emitting muffled rumbling sounds, as if the whole world was trembling under the impact of this powerful force.

As a veteran deity, Lilith's descent this time was merely a wisp of consciousness.

Under normal circumstances, it requires 13 vampire elders to perform an extremely complex and mysterious ritual in order for her to descend in a relatively complete form.

The body that temporarily housed her consciousness was simply unable to withstand her overwhelming power.

In the fierce battle with Wes, as the power was constantly consumed and collided, fine cracks began to appear on the surface of the body, just like broken porcelain. The cracks spread outwards at an extremely fast speed.

"I'll remember you, little guy."

Lilith sensed her body was about to collapse and realized that her arrival had failed. After leaving behind this threatening statement, her consciousness returned to her body like a wisp of smoke.

As consciousness faded, the body reverted to its previous statue-like form, only now it appeared even more dilapidated.

Wes was breathing heavily, a hint of wariness in his eyes. He slowly extended his finger and gently placed it on the statue's forehead.

With a slight exertion of his strength, the seemingly solid statue shattered into countless tiny particles, like fragile powder, scattering across the ground.

Once he was certain that Lilith had completely left without leaving any hidden dangers, Wes finally relaxed and let out a long sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, the battle outside was gradually coming to an end. The vampire elders, under the powerful onslaught of the seraphim, were ultimately defeated.

The seraphim mercilessly defeated them one by one, then tossed these vampire elders into the pre-prepared transmutation circle as if they were trash.

As the mournful cries of the vampire elders echoed through the castle, a strange and terrifying light rose from the transmutation array.

Under this light, all the vampires in the castle, regardless of their strength, were drawn by an invisible force and transformed into Philosopher's Stones that radiated a mysterious light.

After the battle, Kingpin entered the arena with his men.

These people, like hungry wolves, began to plunder the castle.

Before long, they had found quite a few good things.

Among them are various magical items with unique shapes and mysterious magical fluctuations, each of which contains powerful energy;

There are also many rare herbs, which are essential materials for making various magical elixirs, and their value is immeasurable.

In addition, there are a large number of precious alchemical materials, which are treasures that alchemists dream of.

According to the prior agreement, all the looted items belonged to Wes.

In addition to these, they also found some money, including cash of various denominations, as well as financial assets such as bonds and stocks.

Kingpin has plenty of ways to launder that money.

This operation can be described as a great success.

However, Weiss was not happy about this.

During his intense battle with Lilith, he realized something profound.

In such high-level battles, it is not just a contest of simple strength and skill, but more importantly, the understanding and mastery of the laws.

Wes had only recently become a demigod, and compared to established deities like Lilith, his understanding of the laws was worlds apart.

Laws are the origin of the universe and the fundamental principles governing the operation of all things in the world.

It is mysterious and powerful, containing endless mysteries.

In this vast universe, no one, whether mortal or deity, dares to claim that they can completely master a single law.

The problem Wes is facing now is that he must choose a direction and determine which law he should cultivate.

It's important to understand that the time and effort required to comprehend a single principle is countless.

Moreover, a preliminary understanding is far from enough; to reach a level of mastery is extremely difficult and cannot be achieved overnight.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Therefore, Weiss needs to calm down and carefully plan his future path of spiritual practice.

Inside the mysterious and tranquil interior of the mage tower, soft magical light twinkled like stars all around.

Weiss floated in mid-air, sitting cross-legged naturally.

The four Infinity Stones—Power, Mind, Reality, and Time—surrounded him, each radiating a unique and dazzling light, intertwining and reflecting each other to form a strange and powerful energy field.

Wes slowly opened his eyes, a determined glint in them, his mind already made up.

The law of power is the foundation of everything. Looking at all the powerful gods and demigods, none of them have mastered the law of power to varying degrees.

This is the most primal and direct force.

Based on the Law of Power, Wes decided to focus his cultivation on the Law of Light.

He hadn't forgotten that, in the shadows, besides Lilith, this veteran deity, there was also Mephisto, the powerful being who ruled Hell, watching him intently.

The laws that Lilith and Mephisto control are mostly related to darkness and evil, while the laws of light are precisely the weapons to restrain them.

Wes devoted himself wholeheartedly to the cultivation of the laws, and with the help of the Power Stone's vast and pure energy, his understanding of the laws of power progressed by leaps and bounds.

The boundless power contained within the Power Gem, like an inexhaustible wellspring of inspiration, opened one door after another for him, leading to the depths of the laws of power.

Whenever he channeled his magic and resonated with the Power Gem, a surge of power would flow through his meridians.

He could clearly sense the patterns of the laws of power slowly unfolding within his body, like a vibrant living organism, constantly growing and expanding.

However, in stark contrast, the path of cultivating the Law of Light is progressing exceptionally slowly.

Unlike the laws of power, the laws of light are not as intuitive and direct. They contain more of a spiritual purity and sublimation, requiring practitioners to comprehend the true meaning of light from the depths of their hearts.

Weiss tried various methods, searching for the source of light in meditation, attempting to capture that pure radiance, but often found himself lost.
