Leo sensed the energy concentration in his hand and said after a moment, "The energy consumed by using the rules is energy from the Shadow Space. If you want to rely on the rules of the Shadow Space to fight, you must replenish enough energy."
"That's easy, just open the space and send it in from the outside," Yaoyao said.
"That would be too slow. Do you remember how the Seven Great Domains operate autonomously?" Leo asked with a smile.
"You mean if we bring all the opponents in and kill them, the energy they contain will remain in the Shadow Space?"
"That's right, this is the ability of the Energy Absorption Domain. After the Shadow Space evolves, it can store the energy of dead life within its own body in its own space. Once I need to use it, I can consume this energy to activate the Power of Laws to suppress the opponent," Leo said.
"Now that you mention it, it seems like it just adds a domain power, but I don't feel like it's any particularly strong," Yaoyao said, puzzled.
"How could it not be strong?" Leo looked at the Shadow Space with great satisfaction and explained, "First of all, in terms of area, the Shadow Space far exceeds the killing area of a Domain. The entire space is shrouded in the Power of Laws, so I can stuff all those enemy armies into the Shadow Space and then kill them all at once."
"Secondly, the energy here is accumulated. The more energy accumulated, the stronger the Power of Laws that can be unleashed. If energy is accumulated for hundreds or thousands of years, even if I encounter a level five opponent, my powerful Power of Laws will be weakened to a terrifying degree if I run into the Shadow Space."
"This will be my trump card against level five opponents,"
"Furthermore, I can manipulate the rules here at will. I can not only apply the rules to my opponents, but also... apply them to myself."
This is the biggest difference between the Shadow Space and the Domain Power. The upper and lower limits of rule adjustment in the Shadow Space are larger than those in the Domain, making it more flexible in adjustment.
Similar to Leo, who could reduce his own Gravity to 0 while increasing his opponent's Gravity by hundreds of times.
Furthermore, this is only the initial stage of evolution. When it evolves to a higher level in the future, it will be able to unleash even greater power.
Just imagine, if the Shadow Space were to evolve into a large world, any opponent who opposes Leo here would face the terrifying pressure of an entire world. Unless they are Supreme Lord, even defensive masters like those with Undying Body would likely be unable to withstand the backlash from the power of a large world.
Leo will be a great being who creates everything here; he can unleash several times his power here!
"Evolution requires the Planetary Core and World Lord. The Planetary Core is too slow; we need to find more World Lord to kill and bury their corpses in the Shadow Space. This way, the Shadow Space can evolve the fastest."
Leo carefully recorded the changes after the evolution of the Shadow Space. The evolution of the Shadow Space represented Leo's most powerful trump card, and he had to increase the speed of Shadow Space evolution as much as possible.
Returning to the demiplane, with no time to do anything else, Leo quickly entered his ocean of consciousness. He sensed that the two Soul Splitting Technique had completed their evolution and were completely merging with his soul.
Ocean of consciousness
The two Soul Splitting Technique that were constantly absorbing power from the Shadow Space to evolve have indeed stopped evolving.
When Leo appeared, the two of them were descending towards the sea of consciousness, trying to completely merge with it.
Above the ocean of consciousness, countless streams of water symbolizing the power of the soul and golden rays representing the power of the physical body swirled in a spiral structure. This was Leo's reliance when he was manipulating the Laws of the Microscopic World.
Leo wasn't paying much attention to the spiral structures right now; instead, he watched as the runes symbolizing the Soul Splitting Technique gradually merged with him.
He hadn't initially placed much importance on those two runes.
After all, aside from contributing when fighting the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard, these two runes were practically nonexistent at other times.
However, after obtaining the black cube module, the importance of these two runes became apparent.
Using that black cube module requires both shadows and souls. Leo has many shadows, but he needs to tear off a piece of his soul, which requires two Soul Splitting Technique.
As they fully merged with the ocean of consciousness, information appeared in their minds—information about the two runes, and more importantly, about how to use the Soul Splitting Technique.
This is indeed witchcraft specifically designed to deal with souls, but it is not the original template passed down from the Eyeless Spider civilization.
As they were absorbed and evolved by the feedback of the power of the Shadow Space, these two Soul Splitting Technique evolved in the direction of Leo's original will.
To Leo's surprise, the two runes fit Leo perfectly, unleashing their full power.
"Not bad witchcraft."
After receiving all the information, Leo smiled with satisfaction. His strength had already improved so much, and yet he still had this unexpected surprise—double the joy!
The Soul Splitting Technique is specifically designed to target souls. When there is a significant difference in their levels, Leo can rely on this sorcery to directly tear apart the opponent's soul.
According to Leo's current simulation calculations, a level-three life form can be torn apart by him with just a glance when he initiates Soul Splitting.
Even those of the same level will suffer severe injuries from having their souls torn apart.
This ability is very similar to the one he received when attacked by those fleshy growths in the Black Tomb World. Back then, when those growths attacked him using the same method, they almost sent Li Leo to the crematorium. If it weren't for Yaoyao's appearance and absorption of the torn-off soul fragments from Leo, he would have been saved.
Don't even mention the grass on Leo's grave; he doesn't even have a grave mound anymore.
Now that he has two Soul Splitting Technique, it's Leo's turn to use the same method to attack his other opponents!
Immediately after the Soul Splitting Technique was fully evolved, Leo did not use the black cube module to Soul Splitting.
He still remembered what it looked like after the fusion with the Level-Five World Lord; even his own consciousness had become metallic.
Having lost its independent thinking ability and completely controlled by the Metal Module, it will remain inactive until the correct way to use it is found.
Even if this cosmic-level treasure is incredibly valuable, Leo wouldn't use it rashly!
"Come on, let's rebuild the domain system first, so that it can be integrated when the Shadow Space advances again."
There are too many things to do, but we can only do them one at a time.
Leo focused intently on rapidly integrating his post-advancement strength within the demiplane, aiming to unleash his own Stigmata power as quickly as possible.
The words of the Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard still echoed in his ears, and Leo ran frantically ahead as if someone was chasing him.
He didn't concern himself with external affairs, only using the teleportation Meng Jie to report to Leo on important matters.
Time passed quickly, and it seemed that no one cared about Leo, who had been promoted to Stigmata Wizard, and even his academy remained peaceful.
There has been no second Stigmata Wizard in the surrounding area, and there have been no conflicts between academies. The overall development speed of the academy is astonishing.
Ten years later, the Gnoll World was completely conquered, and all Gnoll level one and above were sold off. The money from the sales finally filled the empty academy warehouse.
Those low-ranking Gnoll were sent to the mines, where they would toil until they died.
Some of the apprentices from the New Earth went to the Gnoll World to develop it. The academy gave them excellent policies: no taxes were required on their output for the first thirty years, and all the output belonged to them.
This sparked a migration of apprentices, with large numbers migrating to the Gnoll World to earn their own fortune.
Through this Gnoll World, both the academy and every wizard amassed a great deal of wealth.
The most obvious manifestation of this is the surge in the number of people who have been promoted to Official Wizard, from only one thousand to three thousand, a full doubling!
Although no Level Two Wizard have appeared yet, the sheer number of Level 1 wizards means that Level Two Wizard will inevitably appear within three hundred years.
The Gulu Beast also entered the Gnoll World and demiplane in large numbers, where a peaceful and happy time awaited them.
They didn't need to worry about anything; all they had to do was give birth to the next generation. This was the best reward for the Gulu Beast, who had previously been strictly required to abstain from sex. Thousands of new Gulu Beast were born every Heavenly Capital, rapidly increasing the population of the Gulu Beast race.
After completing the Domain Combat System, Leo spent one-third of the academy's treasury's wealth to exchange for a large amount of Level 4 advanced knowledge from the Fate Wizard Book.
At this moment, Leo once again clearly felt the importance of wealth. Without money, he couldn't even afford the most basic knowledge of Level 4. If it weren't for the vast wealth provided by the Gnoll World, how could he have been so extravagant as to purchase so much knowledge at once?
Large-scale experiments were put on the agenda, but Leo paid no attention to anything else and focused solely on improving his abilities.
The Fate Wizard Book also contained news of the expeditions of the Stigmata Wizard, allowing Leo to see how they went on their expeditions.
In his spare time, Leo flipped through the Fate Wizard Book, and it gave him a strange feeling, much like watching a chat channel while playing a game.
When Stigmata Wizard is preparing to launch an expedition, they will first apply to the Wizard World. After approval, they will allocate a mothership and invite their close Stigmata Wizard.
Everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction, and Leo was adapting to the life of Stigmata Wizard.
Fifty years later, Leo received a message in his Fate Wizard Book from a Bitter Wind Stigmata Great Wizard, and everything changed.
"Greetings, Atomic Control Stigmata Wizard! I am a Level 6 Bitter Wind Stigmata Wizard, and I now invite you to join the Elemental Wizard Research Society!"
Almost simultaneously, Leo received another message from a high-ranking wizard known as the Qi and Blood Frenzy Stigmata Great Wizard.
"Greetings, Atomic Control Stigmata Wizard! I am a Level 6 Qi and Blood Frenzy Stigmata Wizard, and I now invite you to join the Body Refinement Wizard Research Society!"
