Dimensional Descent

1924 A Way

Leonel's gaze sharpened as he reeled in his Force, controlling it until the heat vanished entirely.

According to Adrin, entering the Half-Step Layered State placed him within the top percentile of Sixth Dimensional existences. However, Leonel didn't know whether this was a measure of the four Great Families alone, or if it was the entirety of the Dimensional Verse.

If it was the four Great Families alone, then it might be slightly more impressive. But if it was the Dimensional Verse as a whole, this likely meant that there were a few geniuses out there who could defeat him within the Sixth Dimension.

Leonel felt that it was more appropriate to lean toward the latter. As he had deduced earlier, stepping into the Layered State wasn't impossible so long as you had the patience and the knowledge, this was why the four Great Families wanted to hide its truth to begin with.

This more than likely meant that while it was rare, it wasn't exceptionally so to be at Leonel's level. The only advantage Leonel had was his larger Scarlet Star Innate Node which allowed him to touch the Second Layered State of Four, but using it was like a double edged blade.

At the same time, Leonel understood that in order to reach the level Wise Star Order had spoken about within a hundred years and save himself from being devoured by his own Innate Node, he would need to reach the Impetus Stage, only that way could he fully control his Innate Node. Beyond that would be the cherry on the sundae.

Leonel's gaze narrowed as he focused on his Spear Force and Weapon Force, trying to catch a glimpse at something. A mysterious feeling gripping his heart.

Suddenly, Leonel's pupils constricted. 'Second Layered State.'
