519 Empyrean Scarletsea's Expectation

"I don't know," Empyrean Scarletsea shook her head and said, "I have never encountered such strange yet seemingly almighty existences before. That's why I cannot confirm whether they come from Chaos."

How could she confirm whether the unknown beings, which invaded the Divine Realm, came from Chaos when she didn't even know what existed in Chaos?

"All I can tell you is none of our powers and laws worked against them. Neither the energy we cultivated nor the universal laws we comprehended produced any effect. The unknown invaders nullified all of our attacks effortlessly no matter what we threw at them," Empyrean Scarletsea stated with a helpless look.

For a once mighty Empyrean God to make such a helpless expression, the person must have been truly powerless during the Great Calamity.

"They wield the Law of Nihility?" Vaan casually guessed.

However, Empyrean Scarletsea shook her head with a bitter smile.

"If only it were that simple," Empyrean Scarletsea sighed, acknowledging, "The Law of Nihility is indeed impressive and extremely rare. Perhaps only one person in the whole chaosverse would ever comprehend it."

"However, what those unknown invaders used to nullify out attacks didn't feel like the Law of Nihility but was still equally impressive in its effectiveness. It was as if they had completely read through our attacks and reversed their processes, rendering them useless. Or perhaps they were using some unknown law that is beyond our understanding."

"All I can say is we were completely outmatched and overpowered. To make us, Peak-stage Empyrean Gods, feel utterly powerless, I can only believe these unknown invaders have achieved a realm of power even beyond the True Divinity Realm," Empyrean Scarletsea guessed.

No one in her era had ever advanced past the Peak stage of Empyrean God. Thus, the legendary Beyond True Divinity Realm was only an illusion they could dream about.

However, the appearance of those unknown invaders made them start to believe such a realm truly existed.

"Why did they invade the... Divine Realm? What did they want?" Vaan asked with a frown.

"That's the problem," Empyrean Scarletsea replied with a deeper frown.

"No one knows the answer to that question, not even the other Empyrean Gods and I. They just suddenly appeared out of a dimensional rift and started killing everyone. Even the celestial bodies weren't spared."

"Before their appearance, no one had ever seen existences like them. Their forms were unclear and ever-changing but always radiating with rainbow light. Such a unique life form would have been recorded if they had ever appeared in the past."

"However, they haven't. It's impossible for any grudge to form prior to their appearance. As such, I cannot understand why they would try to destroy everything as soon as they appeared. They even seemed intellectually capable," Empyrean Scarletsea added.

"Well then, why are you telling me all of this?" Vaan suddenly wanted to understand.

"Because I figured if it's you, you might have a greater chance at reaching such a realm of power than my disciple, Henrietta. Although she is talented, she is still lacking. Such news would weigh down on her heavily and affect her cultivation," Empyrean Scarletsea coolly stated.

"On the other hand, you are different. I have heard and seen what you have done, Vaan Raphna. You have grown very fast and reached a level of power that many could only describe as unthinkable for a man, given the unfavorable conditions this world has for men."

"Furthermore, the speed of your law comprehension and control of the universal law puts even someone like me to shame. I have never seen a more talented person than you in my entire history of life."

"It's like the heavens had used all of its last remaining powers to create a heaven-defying talent for you and leave behind a seed of hope - hope that one day you can stop—"

"Stop." Vaan interrupted Empyrean Scarletsea with a hand gesture and

indifferently said, "I don't care about becoming a hero or savior of the entire chaosverse, so don't try to put me on a pedestal in hopes of making me one."

"My life is more important," Vaan firmly stated.

He wasn't even a Rank 6 divine being yet.

It was utterly ridiculous to assume he would have a chance to reach such a distant realm of power, no matter how talented he was. Even if he had confidence in his talent, he still lacked the knowledge to reach it.

As such, to assume it was possible for him would no longer be confidence but sheer arrogance.

"I understand that," Empyrean Scarletsea acknowledged before saying, "I just wanted you to be aware of the current dangers in the seemingly vast sea of stars, lest you blindly venture out there and get yourself killed by such beings."

"At the same time, I also wanted to earn your goodwill by helping you become strong faster. I believe you aren't one to repay gratitude with enmity. Also, I didn't expect you to be able to do anything about this chaosverse's situation with your current strength. You are still far too weak."

"Even so, it also doesn't hurt to leave behind a seed of hope and have some expectations for the future. I just want you to understand that," Empyrean Scarletsea expressed her sincere thoughts.

"Note taken," Vaan acknowledged.

"Alright then, shall we return the discussion about our offers in exchange for one of your divine energy crystals?" Empyrean Scarletsea suggested. Without waiting for Vaan's response, she continued, "I don't think you understand the value of a True Divinity-rank energy cultivation method. So, I will explain that first."

"No need. I agree," Vaan straightforwardly agreed to the exchange, somewhat surprising Empyrean Scarletsea. "I have received enough of your goodwill. It would be wrong of me not to return the favor."

"I trust you won't go back on your words after the exchange," Vaan calmly added with a charming smile.

"Oh my..."
