Chapter 772 - The Awakened Realm Spirit

"T-this is…!"
The Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon stared in shock at the distorted space surrounding Leon as it uttered words that implied as if it knew what it was seeing.
However, it shortly utters, "W-what is this power?!"
The threatening aura emanating from Leon's body filled the Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon with dread, causing it to retreat several paces and distance itself from him with narrowed eyes.
The invisible power tore down the space like tearing down a sheet of wallpaper as it disintegrated into particles of True Grandmist Energy and was quickly absorbed by Leon before it could be erased into nothingness.
But as the secret realm's spatial dimension was getting torn down, what was revealed on the other side of the torn space was not the chaotic sea of nothingness but another space that could lead everyone out of the secret realm.
However, Leon did not find this surprising as they were inside a secret realm, an independent subspace from Gaia.
'It seems like I can use the Nihility Law to create an exit and leave the secret realm forcefully,' Leon briefly thought.
Seeing that the Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon wavered, Leon immediately prepared to chase after the Evil Eye Arch Demon when he was suddenly locked onto by a powerful spirit with divine sense.
"Hm?"
Leon quickly frowned.
In the next instance, the omnipresent spirit tried to suppress Leon with its mighty Divine Will, but it immediately retracted its Divine Will upon contact with Leon's Nihility Barrier.
"Ahhh!" the spirit squealed in pain.
Evidently, its spirit has taken substantial damage after coming into contact with Nihility, something that can break down the very building blocks of the world and disperse souls with a single touch.
Nihility was the bane of all existence, let alone souls, which are not even composed of material substances.
"S-stop! I'll do anything you want! I beg you, please don't use that power anymore! It's killing me—Ahhh!"
The spirit's mature and feminine voice entered Leon's mind where only he could hear, pleading for him to stop using his Nihility Law after it failed to suppress him with force.
"Then stop that Arch Demon, and do it quickly!" Leon conveyed his message with a demanding tone while suppressing his goosebumps and hair from rising.
Although the spirit's spiritual voice was feminine, it was also undoubtedly the voice of a male spirit.
"Y-yes, sir!" the male spirit complied.
…
"Miss Aria, be careful!"
The One-Eyed Venerable Shaman quickly warned as the Evil Eye Arch Demon shot past him in a flash, aiming for Aria some distance away.
"Hm?"
Aria reacted to the warning, sweeping away the dozens of Mid-rank and Low-rank Greater Demons in the area with waves of Sword Intent before quickly turning to face the incoming threat.
However, by that time, the Evil Eye Arch Demon had already entered within attacking distance to thrust its damaged Tier-5 Rapier at Aria, forcing her to block it directly.
But just as their weapons were about to make contact, a powerful Divine Will suddenly bore down on the Evil Eye Arch Demon and suppressed it, drastically reducing its movements to a snail's pace.
That window of opportunity allowed Aria to dodge the Tier-5 Rapier and make a clean swipe at the Evil Eye Arch Demon's neck, decapitating it with her Tier-7 Divine Sword.
The surrounding demons immediately froze as the Evil Eye Arch Demon's head was lopped off with its eyes opened wide in horror and disbelief.
"L-lord Arch Demon has been slain! We don't stand a chance against the humans! Everyone, run!" a Low-rank Greater Demon cried.
The Greater Demons plunged into chaos shortly after, breaking formations and scattering about to flee the battle.
At the same time, Aria and the rest of the humans were also stunned.
She did expect to kill the Arch Demon as easily as she did, nor did the rest of the humans believe she was capable of such feats either.
"What happened just now?"
Aria muttered with creased brows as she recalled the short instance in which the Arch Demon suddenly slowed down its movements as if it was trying to throw away its life.
However, looking at the disbelieving and horrified look on the Arch Demon's face, it didn't seem like it was trying to suicide.
…
Meanwhile, the Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon immediately decided to flee as soon as it saw the Evil Eye Arch Demon's head fly.
"Ah! Lord Arch Demon is fleeing! Wait for us, Lord Arch Demon!"
Chaos also broke out in the army of Lesser Demons before they began chasing after the Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon and fled in the direction of the Bone Sea.
"The demons are disorderly and panicking. This is the perfect opportunity to finish them all off. Please give us the order to pursue them, chief!" an Extremity-rank Battle Master from the Sky Sword Tribe requested.
However, Chief Skyhawk shook his head.
"It's too dangerous to give chase to a fleeing enemy; forcing them into a corner will only lead to unexpected variables. You haven't fully recovered yet. No need to take on unnecessary risks."
"But…"
"No buts."
The Extremity-rank Battle Master wanted to argue, but Chief Skyhawk left no room for negotiation.
As such, the Sky Sword Tribesmen forcefully endured the looks of contempt thrown at them as the other three tribes chased after the fleeing demons.
Aria and the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman also gave chase, cutting down as many fleeing demons as they could without getting too far away from the central forest region.
The opportunity to reduce the demon's numbers wasn't easy to come by.
While that was happening, Leon remained standing in the same spot with a frown on his face due to the unknown male spirit's presence, which seemed omnipresent in the secret realm.
"Sir, I did as you asked…" the male spirit reports respectfully.
"That's good..." Leon acknowledged with a nod before interrogating it, "But, what are you?"
"I am the Realm Spirit of this Eternal Night Secret Realm, sir…"
The male spirit truthfully answered with a slightly pitiful tone, causing Leon to raise his brows in surprise.
"A Realm Spirit? But that would mean…"
