1070 Fourteen Law Fruits
After the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness and Leon's soul core were connected via the dark energy tree's roots, the tugging force on his Darkness Law disappeared.
Dark power freely flowed between the soul core and the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness, and the fruit of the Darkness Law was quickly born.
However, the fruit of the Darkness Law hanging on the branch of the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness did not feel like something new.
Rather, the fruit of the Darkness Law and the Darkness Transcendent Crystal within Leon's soul core felt like one and the same thing.
It was like one entity in two places, connected by an invisible cable.
Nevertheless, the fruit of the Darkness Law was just the beginning. Shortly after it was born, the rest of Leon's laws followed.
However, his law laws didn't channel their powers to the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness one at a time; it happened simultaneously.
Eleven different colored lights flowed through the roots, up the trunk, and to different branches like a rainbow magic circuit being activated.
It was quite a spectacular sight to behold.
From there, eleven new law fruits appeared on the tree's branches.
There was the Destruction Fruit, Temporal Fruit, Spatial Fruit, Death Fruit, Life Fruit, Earth Fruit, Fire Fruit, Ice Fruit, Wood Fruit, Metal Fruit, and Lightning Fruit.
Including the first fruit, the Darkness Fruit, there were twelve law fruits on the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness.
If not for the non-existent Nihility Law, there would have been thirteen law fruits.
Nevertheless, once the twelve law fruits were born, the grey energy ring orbiting Leon's soul core was channeled into the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness.
The grey energy ring disappeared, and its various energy flowed into their respective law fruits.
The fruits hanging on the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness weren't just the manifestations of the laws but also containers of their powers.
'This is…'
Leon was stunned by an unexpected sight while observing the changes to the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness.
Because he thought the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness was great storage for his energy, he decided to feed it with a thousand wisps of True Grandmist Energy.
However, it went beyond his expectations that the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness would also start to form a law fruit from the wisps of True Grandmist Energy.
'There was actually a law behind the True Grandmist Energy… No, it should have been obvious from the start. All forms of energy have a corresponding law. And yet, I overlooked this simple fact…'
Leon couldn't contain his astonishment.
Nevertheless, a thousand wisps of True Grandmist Energy was hardly enough to fully manifest the fruit of the True Grandmist Law.
As such, Leon made the decision to feed all his remaining wisps of True Grandmist Energy to the Truth Manifestation Tree to nurture the fruit of the True Grandmist Law in the making.
Thousands of wisps of True Grandmist Law poured into the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness.
Although the size was a bit disappointing, Leon succeeded in producing a small grey fruit that contained a glimpse of the True Grandmist Law's power and all the True Grandmist Energy he fed to the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness.
'What exactly is the True Grandmist Law? Is it existence?' Leon thought.
However, he quickly scrapped the idea.
'No, it shouldn't be existence. True Grandmist Energy is most desired and impressive indeed, but it is nothing against the power of nothingness. Nihility's opposing law should be able to cancel out nihility instead of being destroyed by it.'
'That means True Grandmist Law shouldn't be on the same level as Nihility Law. It should be weaker… On the level of Destruction Law and Creation Law, perhaps? Or maybe it is Creation Law…' Leon pondered with a frown.
However, no amount of pondering would give him an answer.
He could only wait to use the power of the True Grandmist Law. But even if he used its power, he might still not understand it.
After all, he did not comprehend it through awakening cultivation – or so he thought.
Perhaps because of the connection being shared between the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness and Leon's soul core, he could vaguely feel a seed of the True Grandmist Law forming in his soul core, albeit at a very slow rate.
Even so, it was better than nothing.
Nevertheless, Leon didn't fixate on the True Grandmist Law, nor was he done with his Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness just yet.
After feeding all his True Grandmist Energy to the tree, Leon still had a huge reserve of solar energy and law fragments of the Wrath Law to go through.
He quickly started with the law fragments of the Wrath Law.
However, contrary to his prior experience with True Grandmist Energy, the blackish-red fruit of the Wrath Law was formed very quickly.
Only a tiny portion of the law fragments was needed to form the Wrath Fruit completely.
After the Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness finished digesting all the law fragments of the Wrath Law, the Wrath Fruit had grown to a size that wasn't inferior to the black fruit of the Death Law.
Considering Leon had achieved the Acknowledge Paragon-stage Transcendent Realm in the Death Law, it implied that the Wrath Fruit was at a similar level.
Once the comprehension is transferred to his soul core to form the seed of the Wrath Law, he will eventually grasp the Wrath Law with minimum effort.
The notion of reaching the Acknowledge Paragon-stage Transcendent Realm in the Wrath Law simply by doing nothing except waiting was unreal.
'This Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness is truly heaven-defying… As expected of a tree that can manifest any law by eating its respective energy. It might as well be called the tree of enlightenment…' Leon mused.
He was amused by the thought of having a personal Bodhi tree.
Nevertheless, with the addition of the True Grandmist Fruit and the Wrath Fruit, Leon's Truth Manifestation Tree of Darkness had birthed fourteen law fruits.
'Now there's only the solar energy left,' Leon shifted his attention to the cluster of bright energy in the corner of the Black Vortex Space.
