Dimensional Descent
chapter-2986

Leonel's brothers looked toward him, but as expected, they were still a bit hesitant. They really didn't want Leonel to waste so much on them again. It just felt like a perpetual cycle that always led to failure.

First, they would end up in trouble that only Leonel could fix. He would then save them, then promise to make them stronger. Then they would be left behind him again because despite the number of resources he spent on them, it was all useless... they couldn't keep up with him.

Then, they would end up in trouble once again and could only wait to be saved.

This was the plight that they had to suffer through, and it was something they couldn't escape even when they wanted to.

Leonel shook his head, rising to his feet.

"This time... will truly be different."

His tears seemed to be burned away by a fiery heat.

"Let's go. Joel, you're up first."

They all exited the Segmented Cube at the same time.

When they appeared, they stood in an endless void. They couldn't see or feel anything.

"Holy trippy, what the fuck, Cap. Did you drug us or something?" Franco looked at his hands, feeling disoriented, but it somehow felt like they were a world away even though they were right in front of him.

Leonel smiled.

"They call this place the void. The laws of physics are shot here, so it's difficult to tell which way is up and down. Even if you try to walk forward, you might end up walking to the side by accident."

Joel blinked, looking ahead with squinted eyes.

"What is that?"

"An incomplete World," Leonel said with a smile.

They were taken aback again. Just what level of power had Leonel reached to be able to casually find something like this?

"Follow me."

Leonel brought them all inside, and almost instantly, they were attacked by the Regulator. The chains shattered before they could even take shape on Leonel's body, but when it came to his brothers, they were unable to fight back against such a thing.

That said, they were also far weaker in talent and strength than both Leonel and Aina. As such, their backlash was far less significant. After a few grunts, they managed to tank it. Their flesh was lacerated and their bones creaked, but in the end, they were able to stand tall.

"What do you think?" Leonel asked Joel.

Of the group, Joel was the one who received the least backlash, but that was definitely not because he was the weakest of them.

It was because Leonel had picked this world for him.

Joel looked around after Leonel asked his question and he seemed to realize the same things.

In the laws of this world, he could sense an endless sharpness. Without even seeing a single person in this world, he could tell that they must be littered with blade masters.

Every one of the small laws seemed to be perfectly in line with him.

Leonel grinned. Then, he suddenly slammed his palms together, unleashing a roar.

A violent pressure surged out from him, and all the stars of his incomplete World seemed to listen.

One after another, their energies began to connect, forming a sky that shook their hearts.

"You all have been practicing [Dimensional Cleanse], right?" Leonel asked with a smile. It was a perfunctory question. He could already tell that the answer was yes.

Still, Joel and the others nodded.

"It's time for it to come in handy for something other than cleansing and increasing your Force accumulation capabilities."

BOOM!

A Natural Force Art was completely formed across the entire Incomplete World. Then, Leonel's figure flashed and he appeared behind Joel, pressing a palm to his back.

Joel felt himself almost collapse as a great amount of power began to concentrate on him.

"Focus," Leonel said.

At that moment, Leonel's eyes began to glow with a fiendish violet light.

"[ASSIMILATE]!"

BOOM!

A crown of gold and violet appeared above Leonel's head. At the same time, fluttering violet winds appeared. Sometimes they would appear like gusts of wind, but at other times, they would morph into butterflies, dragonflies, and motes of light.

It was the picture of beauty.

Veins popped up all across Joel's body and he felt like a universe had exploded in his mind.

A single star appeared to Joel's back, and it even had rings like Saturn. However, these rings echoed with the sound of sharpening blades, slicing apart space as though it was a worthless sheet of paper.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Joel's aura skyrocketed and he entered the Ninth Dimension in a single bound.

It took several dozen minutes before the commotion calmed down. In the end, the group appeared back in the void, and Joel stood there, his eyes closed.

The aura he was giving off made the others shudder. It felt like they were watching the form of a slumbering beast.

And then this beast suddenly opened his eyes.

A sharp blade light soared through the void, vanishing into the distance in the blink of an eye.

Joel looked down at his body in astonishment, feeling as though he had just experienced something that was entirely unreal. None of it made any sense at all.

Leonel grinned. It had worked.

[Dimensional Cleanse] was the perfect foundation for [Final Destruction]. However, who said that Destruction was the sole and only foundation that you could use to practice this method?

Normally, there would be no way to take such a shortcut, but didn't Leonel have [Assimilate]? This absolute powerhouse ability of the Fawkes had even allowed him to give Tolliver the potential of an Infinity Beast... so why couldn't he use it to help his brothers reach a new level as well?

The trouble was that Tolliver was able to do that because it had the foundation necessary, not to mention the help of an entire Vital Star. But his brothers wouldn't usually... except for the fact that [Dimensional Cleanse] existed.

And then there was the final cherry on top...

Because he was a Wise Sea Order now, he could not only travel through the void, but he could find the perfect Incomplete Worlds for his brothers.

He hadn't been able to find what he needed... but that didn't mean that these last few months were wasted.
