He had tried to turn his divine sense into a domain to rob other Sovereigns of their access to world power. But he couldn't because the law matrix was rejecting his inner world. The resistance jas loosened up now so he can utilize his domain completely.
Legion-7 provided an explanation. "It seems we can deploy it now because this Origin god has removed the suppression of the law matrix. She has replaced the suppression of the void universe with the suppression of her domain."
Legion-5 agreed. He would have smiled if he had lips. "How kind of her. Now let us see if her existence is enough to bear what the void universe didn't want me to do."
He wants to smile because the pressure of the void matrix can't compare to the pressure of a single Origin god. It has given him an opportunity to see what his complete domain could do. He is looking forward to it because it has to be powerful or the void universe won't suppress it.
He deployed it so the golden crown around his inner world expanded outwards. It grew out of him and into the world beyond him.
This world is the domain of an Origin god so the Origin god had to bear the burden of his domain. The two domains would clash and reach a balance based on power. The domain of the Origin god would collapse if it couldn't handle the new domain. Those are normal outcomes.
But his domain is not normal. Cosmic force filled the space within his domain immediately. The void froze and white strings appeared. These white strings appeared to be running through everything. They had no origin and no visible destination.
He said in admiration, "It is like standing on the small part of a large spider web."
This sight is something that is rarely seen in the world of manifestation. This is because the white lines are the threads of the law matrix but in a stripped form. The law fragments that should be present in them have been banished by his cosmic force.
Not only should the law matrix not be visible like this, but it shouldn't be stripped either. So this is a special sight. It is so special that Legion as a whole understood something about cosmic force when they saw the banishment of laws.
Legion-5 said in understanding, "I have been using cosmic force wrongly all along. Cosmic force can manipulate the world without laws so I shouldn't be trying to manipulate laws with it. That will cause the direct and fierce backlash of the void universe. I should have limited the use of cosmic force to the manipulation of manifested forces such as gravity, matter, energy, and momentum."
"Above them is the manipulation of space, time, and existence. Those will still bring backlash. But I have to start with the avoidance of laws."
He was enraptured by the sight. Unfortunately, he couldn't admire the view for up to a second. The void cracked along the path of the strings. The strings turned into crack lines that usually appear on glass. Then the frozen Shadow Lurker croaked.
She could finally move but what she did was to croak like a frog that has been forced to carry an anvil. That frog will be crushed and so was she. Her domain collapsed with a bang.
The void shattered completely and they returned to the plane. His base has suffered some damage but it is mostly intact. The roof is missing though. He can see through the gap in the roof that the sky is full of flames.
The flames are raining down on the plane and killing everything. The poor plane has just survived an ordeal but it is being put through another round of beatings.
The shadow Lurker appeared in front of him. She is still a dark shadow. The only difference is that there are many cracks running through her body. These cracks look deep. He can see a bright light shining through them.
Legion-7 observed idly, "It seems you have cracked her existence."
He is not wrong. The cracks run through her entire existence. Her soul, body, and Origin have been damaged. The crack is also spreading and expanding as he watched. She is shattering just like her domain.
She fell to the ground in pain. She didn't cry out not because she was mentally unfazed by the pain but because she couldn't cry. She was so weak that she couldn't cry. So she didn't try to resist when his base broke down and began to assemble around her.
He was left out in the open because his base sealed her into a metal cube. It is the same metal cube he was given at the start of the rite of passage.
Legion-5 was surprised. "Hmm. She was captured, not me?"
One of the hidden scouts appeared and took his base away. Another sent a message to him, "It seems you were lucky enough to survive. Unfortunately, your base has been requisitioned. You will be paid its value in full so you don't have to worry about that. You will also be compensated for the danger you just experienced. You can always trust the Supreme Alliance to have your back."
Then all of the scouts left his surroundings leaving him with his thoughts.
Legion-7 snickered. "I think you were bait. The Supreme Alliance has planned to trap her right from the start. The bases were traps and you were a bait. This whole rite of passage might just be a show to capture her. We were suspicious of the wrong things."
It turned out that Legion was not the only one with the idea to use him as bait. Legion's willingness to sacrifice him for the common good is not a surprise to him. The Supreme Alliance's willingness to sacrifice him also doesn't surprise him.
He expected worse from them so Legion-5 wasn't concerned about it. If anything, he is looking forward to the compensation they will give him to shut his mouth about using him as bait. It is welcomed because Legion won't give him anything for sacrificing himself.
