Maria felt an enormous amount of pressure bearing down on her, but it was unlike any sort of oppression she's ever felt before. It's not like how she can suppress weaker beings while flaring her aura or how Mira can bring people to their knees with her killing intent.
If she were to try and explain it properly, it'd feel more like what she's feeling right now is the world suppressing her or more specifically the Laws that make up the world. She can feel and sense all sorts of mysteries about the Light Law surrounding her, but her comprehension and strength are too weak to resist it.
Maria guessed that even if she were to spend the next decade in this Light Pillar, she wouldn't even scratch the surface of the mysteries contained within this Light Pillar.
Another thing she noticed is the Qi in this Light Pillar is so dense that she can almost see it.
"Sigh… If only there was somewhere here with me to spar with, then this would be the perfect place to cultivate."
Just a few more chapters and they'll be out of the Secret Realm! Yay~
