Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1440

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.

After what felt like a lifetime, Leland finally felt the uncomfortable pulling force die down.

He felt as though he had set foot on a soft grassland. Slowly, he opened his purple eyes, only to find that there was nothing around him.

Leland was surrounded by an empty space, completely devoid of light.

Crack!

Streaks of thunder and lightning suddenly passed through the void.

Soon after, countless flames roared to life and danced in front of him. However, majestic waves came out of nowhere and extinguished the flames. In the distance, Leland saw bloody red clouds rolling and abysses suddenly appearing then vanishing just as quickly.

Leland was stunned.

What the hell was going on?

In the span of a mere second, he saw nearly a thousand laws appear, riot, vanish...

"Laws... This must be the Source of Laws!"

Leland shouted in disbelief. His body stiffened and he felt as though he was about to explode from excitement.

There was really a Source of Laws, and he had seen it with his own eyes!

Whoosh!

A gust of breeze swept over, carrying with it a familiar aura. All of a sudden, a person emerged and stood by his side.

The man was dressed in white and transparent runes flashed along his cold face. However, what was most striking was his piercing, silvery eyes.

"It's really you..."

Leland whispered. He suddenly felt calm, knowing that one didn't come by happiness so easily. The Source of Laws was already discovered by this peerless human, just like he had expected.

"I must admit that you are the greatest creature I have ever seen in my entire life,"

Leland declared, sighing deeply.
