When Vaan sensed the incredible murderous aura emanating from the central region of Crown's Nest, he realized it was the source of all ominous and sinister feelings exuded from the upper half tree region.
They did not come from the Death Eaters at all.
While Death Eaters were indeed dangerous beings tied to the death attribute, they were not innately evil-or rather, they had no concept of good and evil.
It was just their deathly nature that made other lifeforms instinctively fear them and label them as evil.
'I wonder how far I can reach...' Vaan silently mused as he gradually drew closer to Crown's Nest with Emerald.
He didn't expect to reach the inheritance location in a single attempt; he just wanted to grasp the difficulty and dangers. He needed to measure his limit and plan ahead.
However, Vaan soon realized that the Death Eaters were far more docile than he had imagined. None of the Rank 6 and Rank 7 Death Eaters made any trouble for him; they kindly moved out of his way as he approached Crown's Nest.
At the very least, Emerald's radiant presence made sure he didn't look like a tasty snack to the Death Eaters.
Nevertheless, according to the Elder Spirit, there was also a potential Rank 8 Divine Lord among the Death Eaters dwelling in the upper half tree region. Such a powerful being couldn't measured with normal standards.
As such, he couldn't blindly trust Emerald's influence to affect it as well.
More importantly, not knowing where the Rank 8 Divine Lord Death Eater currently was made Vaan more wary and cautious.
After all, if a Rank 8 Divine Lord wanted to attack him, he wasn't confident he would be able to react in time. Fortunately, the spatial laws within the upper half tree region didn't appear to be sealed.
Thus, it was still possible to escape with spatial shift if things went south.
Right in front of him, a Death Eater materialized into being-or rather, it shed away its stealth and revealed a pointed dark needle just inches away from his forehead.
The Death Eater had approached him soundlessly and without warning. Even his Fourth- Dimensional Sense had not been able to detect it.
Sure enough, a Rank 8 Divine Lord was not to be underestimated, especially for someone at his level. His Fourth-Dimensional Sense was not absolute against beings at a much higher level of existence.
Fortunately, his sharp instincts saved him.
Had he chosen to flee, the dark needle would have pierced his forehead before he could fully slip through space.
Although he had a vague feeling that his Boundless Sea of Sky Aura would have some influence on the Death Eaters, he was still surprised to see it in effect. After all, while the Death Eaters were aerial beings, they weren't organic lifeforms; they were spiritual beings. Thus, the Boundless Sea and Sky Aura shouldn't apply to them.
However, Vaan's surprise only lasted a moment before his pupils suddenly flashed with understanding.
He realized he had overlooked a detail regarding the Boundless Sea and Sky Aura. During Varuna's long voyage through the endless sea of nothingness, he had stayed in a remnant chaosverse, where he was even able to tame aerial and marine fourth-dimensional beings.
Varuna's cultivation didn't increase at all during his long voyage through the endless sea of nothingness.
However, his authority over the sea and sky must have improved during that time.
Since the Boundless Sea and Sky Aura could even affect beings of a higher dimension, why couldn't it surpass the boundary of flesh and blood and influence spiritual beings?
After Vaan's outburst of Boundless Sea and Sky Aura paralyzed the Divine Lord Death Eater, it soon retracted its dark needle-like limb before retreating a respectable distance. Shortly after, the Divine Lord Death Eater and the rest of the Death Eaters in the area lowered themselves to Vaan like they were bowing and paying respect to him.
"We have waited a long time for your arrival, Lord," the Divine Lord Death Eater surprisingly
