The Witch Hunter System
chapter-655

Although it was generally accepted that all of the most primal divine energy in the universe was spurred into existence from nothingness and formed the current Divine Realm, it was also acknowledged that divine energy couldn't created nor destroyed, only transformed from one form of energy to another.

However, this didn't mean that it was absolutely impossible to create or destroy divine energy, only that the power of law required to do so was beyond people's understanding and currently unreachable.

Vanitas and Scarlett were hopeful that all the divine energy, even the most primal form of divine energy, devoured by the Divine Abyss of Absolute Beginning since the beginning of time, had not been destroyed by its unimaginable crushing force.

After all, if such divine energy had not been destroyed but had been accumulating all this time, it would most likely be the key to elevating their heavenly god power to a higher realm of power.

That said, even though Vanitas and his wife, Scarlett, had decided, they still couldn't help but feel apprehension and fear as they approached the Divine Abyss of Absolute Beginning. No matter how lofty their statuses or high their power was, they still felt small and insignificant in the face of such an enormous, crushing force of space.

"It's not too late for us to turn back now if you feel the slightest hint of uncertainty in being able to break us through the countless layers of crushing space," Scarlett softly said, feeling a little nervous.

However, Vanitas tightened his grasp on her hand and shook his head with a smile, replying, "Have you forgotten who your husband is, my love? I am Heavenly God Divine Void, the foremost expert in the law of space."

"I have full confidence in taking us inside the Divine Abyss of Absolutely Beginning. My apprehension and fear mostly comes from the unknown that awaits us within its depths. This is an uncharted region, never explored by any man, god, or devil."

"We don't know what to expect inside, so its dangers could be beyond our wildest imagination," Vanitas sighed.

"Finding out the secrets of the Divine Abyss of Absolute Beginning has always been our wish. Since we have decided to explore it together, I won't have any regrets whether we live or die through this," Scarlett smiled.

They weren't just husband and wife but also lifelong dual cultivation partners.

One was the Peak Heavenly God of Space, and the other was the Peak Heavenly God of Fire. With their individual power, they stood among the top ten strongest Heavenly Gods in the Divine Realm.

However, few knew that when they worked together, the synergy of their combined might would allow them to stand at the apex of the Divine Realm. Even the other eight strongest Heavenly Gods wouldn't be their match if they fought together.

Most heavenly-matched couple and foremost leading figures in the Divine Realm – it was also because of their reputation that they had their responsibilities to be trailblazers of the unknown.

"You really won't regret, even though I could be taking you into a region of death?" Vanitas asked.

"With you to accompany me, what is there to regret? If it's life, we'll seek it. If it's death, we'll accept it," Scarlett firmly answered before softly laughing, "Even if we do die, it also wouldn't be too bad to explore the secrets of the afterlife together."

"I don't fear anything as long as I'm with you, Vanitas," Scarlett added intimately.

Vanitas smiled back at her with a gentle gaze, full of affection, before his eyes flashed with determination.

"Then let us be on our way."

With those words uttered, Vanitas curled the terrifying crushing force of space ahead with his heavenly divine power and constructed a spatial tunnel that drilled into the depths of the Divine Abyss of Absolute Beginning.

However, the crushing force of the Divine Abyss of Absolute Beginning wasn't something that could be tamed by a Peak Heavenly God of Space. Not even a full breath passed before the spatial tunnel deformed, fragmented, and then swept away by the flow of crushing space.

Even so, Vanitas was only testing the waters and had yet to use his full power. He knew the path ahead wouldn't be smooth. After he confirmed the viable route ahead, he wrapped his arm his wife's waist.

"Hold on tight, my love. It's going to be a rocky ride ahead," Vanitas stated.

Scarlett nodded, embracing him tightly like it had been practiced millions of times. Shortly after, while holding his wife, Vanitas dived through a newly constructed spatial tunnel with unimaginable speed.

The new spatial tunnel easily deformed and fragmented like the first, but with Vanitas's power of space, the new spatial tunnel continuously repaired itself. Even so, it didn't stop the terrifying crushing force of the Divine Abyss of Absolute Beginning from slipping inside like gusts of wind.

Each sliver of crushing force had the power to rip gods and devils to shreds.

Despite the dangerous journey ahead, Vanitas was still the Heavenly God of Space; he knew the Law of Space like the back of his hand and skillfully evaded all the spatial turbulence and fractures within his spatial tunnel.

Even so, he was no different from a small boat sailing through a storm of strong wind, heavy rain, and rocky waters – the slightest mistake would cause it to capsize.

One breath turned into ten breaths, and ten breaths became a hundred breaths – the coupled passed through thousands upon thousands of layers of crushing space with breakneck speed, and yet there didn't seem to be an end to it.

Ten thousands… Hundred thousands… Millions of layers of crushing space later, Vanitas frowned without losing focus.

Given his speed and the passage of time, the distance he traveled should have been enough to loop around the Divine Abyss of Absolute Beginning three times!

And yet, there were still no signs of entering into the inner depths of the Divine Abyss of Absolute Beginning!

More alarmingly, Vanitas sensed the Divine Abyss of Absolute Beginning growing bigger as he dived deeper into it with his wife. It was to the extent that he felt the space within the Divine Abyss of Absolute Beginning was even bigger than the Divine Realm itself and not by a small margin!

Given his affinity with space, what he sensed shouldn't be an illusion.

However, even he, the Heavenly God of Space, couldn't remain calm when he felt the space grow to an infinite number of Divine Realms.

The world within the Divine Abyss of Absolute Beginning was so large and boundless that it was mortifying, completely incomprehensible, and beyond his wildest imagination. Nothing prepared him and his wife for what they discovered.

When the final layer of crushing space was breached, Vanitas and Scarlett immediately felt their souls screamed with danger, making their hair stand on end, and their hearts turn chilly cold.
