Chapter 1200 Pull Of The Weaver
The dark sky looked ominous, and the voice that came from it was even more ominous.
But when it spoke to Lin Mu, the people of the Xiaofan world were left stunned.
"W-why… why is that… that being speaking to Lin Mu? Why does it know him?" The Sky Precepts Ancestor questioned.
The others had similar thoughts and wondered why something so powerful and otherworldly would talk to Lin Mu, that too something that had destroyed the world"s barrier and even shattered the skies.
Lin Mu was supposed to be protecting the world and now he was acquainted with someone that was destroying it?
This only made everyone confused.
"What is happening in this world? First the invader, then the Immortal Skeleton, and now the ten golden eyes? What secrets are hidden in this world?" Master Bell Mountain who was lying on the ground thought.
His cultivation base had basically been dispelled, and his body had aged greatly. Even now, he was only holding on through sheer will. If it were not for the fact that he was still within the range of the ancestral Bell and was being protected by it, he would have died from the mere appearance of the invader and the great being in the sky.
"That thing you all see in the sky… that is Lin Mu"s backing… That is his master!" Jing Wei answered.
"His master?!" each and everyone was left speechless.
To them, an immortal realm expert was already something beyond their understanding, but now there was a new being that could easily exceed the immortal realm. Just from the mere pressure it was exuding on the world, it was evident that it was strong beyond the limits of this world.
"Observe and learn Lin Mu." Xukong instructed.
Lin Mu nodded his head, knowing that this was an opportunity that was very hard to find.
~HONG~
The ten golden eyes that reigned in the dark void shone brightly and illuminated the expanse. Soon, the surroundings of the golden eyes became visible. The first to appear were ma.s.sive white pillars that flickered in and out of existence.
They even shone with a prismatic light, looking beautiful. The white pillars were of various sizes, some looking like mere hair compared to the larger ones that were like mountains. These pillars were seemingly holding up the very void itself.
Covering these pillars and attaching them at the base were intricately woven threads. Only those at the Immortal Ascension realm could even see them somewhat clearly since they were too far.
Once the entire background became visible, the people realized that the vast and dark expanse in the sky wasn"t just empty; it was actually a giant temple!
And within that temple stood a being bigger than the entire Xiaofan world. Bit by bit, the body of Xukong was revealed. His ma.s.sive head with ten golden yellow eyes and long fangs that alone were enough to pierce through the world.
His colossal body that could eclipse the sun and the moon and long bony white legs that were like the legendary pillars that held up the heavens. Each and every thing was awe inspiring and at the same time struck a fear that was carved into the souls of everyone that watched.
Gu Yao trembled nonstop, feeling twice the amount of fear that others were. Not only did he feel his own fear, but the fear that came from his master. The worst part of it all was that, his master the Shadow Gloom Bone Lord, seemed to be even more scared than him!
"What realm is that being in, master?" Gu Yao couldn"t help but ask.
Unfortunately, he received no answer at all. Or even if he did, there was a great chance he simply might not be able to comprehend it at all.
~SHUA~
While everyone trembled in fear, and the immortal Skeleton continued its attacks, Xukong made his move. One of his legs moved slightly and pointed towards the Xiaofan world. A thin thread detached from one of the pillars and shot towards the world.
It seemed to be coming from very far and yet covered the distance in the blink of an eye. And when it pa.s.sed from the void into the border of the Xiaofan world, it suddenly enlarged by several times.
It was like a hair had turned into a bamboo!
But that was simply an illusion. It wasn"t that the thread had enlarged, but rather it was always this size. It was simply looking small due to how far it was compared to the Xiaofan world, just like how a sun seemed small, even though it was exponentially bigger than a planet.
The large thread looked like it would fall upon the Xiaofan world, but when it got close it seemed to have pa.s.sed through everything.
It turned ethereal and directly pa.s.sed through the Immortal Skeleton as well as the large body of the Invader, even going beyond that and reaching into the Forbidden continent!
An ominous feeling filled the minds of Gu Yao and the Invader, while Lin Mu"s eyes turned sharp as they observed everything. Merely the movement of the thread from the void into the Xiaofan world had already taught Lin Mu a lot more than he had comprehended on his own.
He could sense the changes in the s.p.a.ce as well as the movement of the void. The fabric of s.p.a.ce reacted differently too and the fine intricacies of the s.p.a.ce were shown to him. His eyes continued to track the thread until it could no longer be seen.
Millions of fine threads spread out from the main thread and covered the area. They directly entered the spatial fabric and wove themselves into it.
It was at this point that it felt like the thread had come to a stop, but then… Xukong"s voice was heard once again.
"Pull of the Weaver: Unraveling the Void!"
The main thread suddenly retracted and disappeared at a moment"s notice.
~SCREECH~
Then… it happened.
The s.p.a.ce around the immortal skeleton and the invader started to unfurl.
