Chapter 552: 551: Envious Talents

"I was just checking to see if your body has fully recovered or not..." 

"Why do you need to check? Can't I check myself? If I didn't wake up in time, would you have peeked under my skirts for your so-called 'inspection' too? Animal." Duna coldly snickered. 

Leon's eyes and lips twitched like he had just taken critical damage. 

It was not the first time he was called an animal by Duna, but why were her words so jarring that it shot straight through his heart this time around? 

"Of course not! You are falsely accusing me!" Leon defended his honor, "I would never do such a thing, not without receiving consent!"

"Hmph!" Duna did not plan on listening to his nonsense and coldly asked, "How long are you planning to hold onto my arm." 

Once Duna spoke these words, Leon immediately released his hands with an embarrassed and awkward expression. 

"Ahem, I forgot." 

"Sure!" Duna rolled her eyes before getting up into a seated position. After shooting Leon a fierce glare, she spat, "Don't bother me."

Shortly after, Duna closed her eyes and entered a state of meditative focus, performing introspection. 

Leon smiled wryly and scratched his cheeks before standing up. However, he suddenly felt lightheaded and staggered. 

"It seems spiritual intimacy with Duna wasn't exactly beneficial for me..." Leon furrowed his brows before we went to find a spot on the grassy fields outside of the herbal garden and sat down in meditation. 

Shortly after he began self-introspection, he entered his sea of consciousness and sailed directly towards the Black Vortex Space with his condensed spiritual avatar. 

Nothing seemed to have changed inside the Black Vortex Space—nothing except his Soul core looking a little fainter than usual. 

"My Soul Energy has been drained..." Leon was momentarily silent at this realization before he broke into cold sweats, "No wonder my divine sense felt weaker. If we had continued going at it for a few more rounds, I might have been put into eternal sleep..."

"Now I know how Duna was able to recover their body. My body and soul were reforged into the Five-Element Body and Soul from practicing the [Hegemon of Primal Chaos] technique..." Leon muttered.

As such, pseudo-Grandmist Energy traces were incorporated into every part of his being, and they are further enhanced after pseudo-Grandmist Energy tempering through Primordial Body Cultivation.

"I didn't expect Duna was able to absorb the Soul Energy and pseudo-Grandmist Energy integrated into my spiritual avatar... Did Duna know about this--that's why she stop?" Leon thought. 

However, after a moment, he felt like an idiot for thinking that and shelved the thought, "Nah... probably not..."

Nevertheless, Leon could not help but frown. 

He thought Duna's recovery was attributed to the benefits of dual cultivation, but it seems dual cultivation benefits did not apply to spiritual pleasure. But then again, Leon felt like that made even less sense, considering the nature of the benefits.

So then, where was the problem? 

Leon's frown deepened, thinking that perhaps, Duna's Devil Soul Fragment really did belong to a powerful succubus demon in the distant past. 

"Hm?"

Suddenly, Leon notice traces of soft white lights flowing out from his spiritual avatar before they were directly devoured by the Black Vortex. 

Shortly after, streams of Law Fragments were spat out after completing their refinement.

Among the Law Fragments, there was Darkness Profound Laws, Temporal Laws, Destruction Laws, and Death Laws.

Leon was surprised at first before he became ecstatic.

"Looks like there were benefits after all!" 

Leon quickly sent the Law Fragments into his soul core for absorption before a stream of law comprehension was relayed back to his consciousness inside the spiritual avatar. 

Shortly after, Leon returned his consciousness before his eyes snap open with a bright flicker. 

If he continued to gain more Law Fragments from Duna and study them, it was only a matter of time before he comprehended the Profound Law of Death. 

And with the [Divine Book of Life] in his possession, the Profound Law of Life was also guaranteed. 

Once he has both, he can practice the third stage of [Hegemon of Primal Chaos] to refine Profound pseudo-Grandmist Energy, bringing him one step closer to refining True Grandmist Energy!

It was not farfetched to say that Duna's laws helped him save a great deal of time. If she had not told him to not bother her, he would have run over and hugged her, giving her many pecks on the cheeks in joy.

Of course, he would also get slapped if that does end up happening. 

As if sensing Leon's peculiar gaze, Duna briefly opened her eyes before furrowed her brows and coldly spat a single word, "Disgusting!" 

Shortly after, she closed her eyes and resumed self-introspection.

On the other side, Leon froze like a wooden block for some time before he smiled wryly while rubbing his forehead with distress.

"Haiz..." Leon issued a prolonged sigh before he, too, closed his eyes and focused on comprehending the Profound Law of Death.

Just like that, the two entered a serene silence as they cultivated within the Worldspace. 

... 

Time quickly passed in the outside world. The thunderclouds never stopped crackling with lightning in the night sky. 

While Elizabeth was discussing important matters with Supreme Elder Haldir within the Elder Tree's crown, the increasing rumbles of the heavens caused her to turn her head for a look. 

"This thundercloud isn't normal." Elizabeth frowned while gazing into the night skies as it flashed with lights of blue and white.

Supreme Elder Haldir chuckled lightly before he nodded, "Of course, it's not normal. Miss Aria is cultivating up there." 

"Oh?" Supreme Elder Haldir's words caught Elizabeth by surprise before she resumed watching the thunderclouds in the sky with amazement, "So, that's where that girl was. She's quite the diligent one." 

"Un. She sure i—" Supreme Elder Haldir nodded with a light smile before his expression stiffened. 

Sensing the surging power of lightning and frost gathering towards a focal point in the thunderclouds, Supreme Elder Haldir suddenly asked, "Do you know how old Miss Aria, Your Majesty?" 

"She should be turning 18 this year. Why?" Elizabeth responded with doubt, uncertain of the Supreme Elder's discovery. 

Supreme Elder Haldir's expression quickly turned to wry helplessness as he muttered, "A Seeking Insight Transcendent below 18 years old... such shocking talents."
