Mystical Journey

Swoosh!!

Large amounts of black roots in the ball shot in all directions. With a click, the black roots exploded out and grew to ends of the air.

At the same time, a shadow just beneath the monster towered to the sky, knocking the back of it.

Bang!!!

The airspace where the monster hung erupted in a mist of yellow fog.

“Four Directional Winds!!” A hysterical scream of coldness, anger, viciousness with a tinkling of silvery-white glow blazed within the yellow fog.

Clang clang clang clang!!

With four flashes of the silvery-white light, the yellow fog dispersed.

Yuria held a dagger as he hung in midair. A vast forcefield was lugging him straight into the air.

A few meters opposite him was the monster with clear dagger scars. Yellow blood was seeping from the wounds.

“You!!” The monster staggered backward and stared at Yuria with disbelief. “How could you be this strong!!??”

Yuria raised his arm where the back of his right hand bore a sarcoma glistening in white light.

“You’re not Qin.”

“Parasitism breed… I should have thought so… Should have thought so earlier!! Hahahaha!!” The monster burst into laughter. “Qin? That trash that suppressed me all those years? If I knew then, I wouldn’t have birth you!!! Ruining my plans!”

“What’s the point of bringing it up now, Father?” Yuria’s face was filled with never-before-seen coldness and composure.

Rings and rings of white ripples spread beneath his body. It was a basic way using overwhelming energy and vibrations which allowed him to levitate in midair.

“That’s true. Everything is a foregone conclusion now. I will personally rectify everything!!!” The monster was not the original Qin Jinqin but the source of all their sorrows, their father.

Swish!

Both of them disappeared on the spot and repeated close to each other.

Bang!

The blade and the monster’s arm intertwined in a collision. Yuria’s movements were like lightning, they contained heavy force but yet, they were violently swift.

Each collision of combat brought about them in mid-air exploded dynamically, releasing blast after blast in the air.

Those who were slightly closer had their eardrums rumbling from this noise.

The strength of these two were from the same source so they were basically equals. Nobody had the upper hand.

The real deal breaker would be the technique they used.

“Four Directional Winds, Reverse Trace!” Yuria held his blade with one arm and swept past the monster. In the high velocity of combat exchange, the dagger ripped several white lines backward in a flash, spreading to the back of the monster.

Shhh!

Blood spurted out.

The monster howled in pain. Yuria was a researcher who spent all his days studying techniques, after all. This monster could not keep up with Yuria who received killing techniques directly from Garen himself.

Moreover, Yuria’s memory recovery coupled with Garen’s technique and his personal killing experience birthed a new secret technique of his own.

“Windless.”

Yuria pressed on his blade with one arm. His body was burning in white flames. He had realized Garen’s move.

This was the distillation of the Sword Master state that Garen forcefully upgraded with his Soul Power.

With his current identity as the Four Great Cornerstone, he started to borrow the power of those around him.

On the ship, the remaining survivors were watching the ground-breaking fight from afar. This level completely surpassed any stage a human could achieve.

This included the transmigrators. A calm and peaceful voice appeared in everyone’s awareness at the same time.

“Are you willing to lend me your strength?” It was Yuria’s voice.

Any and all information was immediately exchanged from Yuria. His will, his hopes, his desires were transmitted out, into the hearts of these survivors.

At the same time, more than eighty percent chose yes.

The majority of them only had one thing in mind, one consensus.

Streams of air current naturally gathered by Yuria, rotating around him, forming a windless ball.

He pressed on the blade and raised it high. Large amounts of air current accumulated behind him, becoming a close transparent giant blade.

Hiss…!

All the air current and air were sucked into this transparent large blade, compacting together.

The monster was forced back from the strong currents. His face reeked of fear.

“What technique is this!!??”

It could sense that all of Yuria’s energy was focused onto this point. This sort of technique at this level exceeded the stage of pure body combat.

The energy gathered on that blade was enough to destroy it.

It was seemingly tiny yet harbored all of Yuria’s mind, body and spirit.

“Windless!”

Yuria’s dagger was raised high.

Swoosh!!!

With a flash of blade light, the giant blade cut the air open with an explosion. Yuria’s body was gone without a trace as if he had vanished into thin air.

Everything resumed to its peacefulness, leaving only the monster in midair. It was holding the black ball without moving an inch.

A clear blade cut stretched from its head to its abdomen blossomed in a dim white light.

Its entire body was ripped apart by this cut and separated in half.

“I…” The monster opened its mouth but was unable to finish his last sentence.

Boom!

It exploded into raining white liquid, splattering everywhere.

No one would have thought that within the monster was a smaller sized giant monster. It had the head of a little girl but its lower body was a distorted being with octopus-like tentacles.

Yuria stood behind the monster. He gently pointed the tip of his foot, spreading waves of white ripples, knocking off the splattering yellow liquid.

He calmly stared at the little girl that appeared from inside the monster.

“Brother.”

The little girl slowly turned around and calmly stared at Yuria. One of her tentacles grabbed the black ball and hung beside her.

“I’m finally able to meet you face to face… in this form.”

The dagger held by Yuria was gently put down. His hair wavered at the wind that it covered his eyes. He lowered his head.

“Just how did we, end up like this?”

“Why?” A confusion streaked past Zhi Jinqin’s face. “I really don’t know but is my own brother going to stop me?”

Her eyes fumed of innocence, “Isn’t it alright if we eat this entire world, together?

“Have everything belong to us.”

“What is the point?” Yuria gazed at his sister. Pain flashed past his eyes.

“The point?” Zhi Jinqin smiled. “This filthy world brought us nothing but pain.”

“Sometimes I feel like I am sent from above to create a new world. ”

“Everything was going on fine and there was no stopping.”

“This is the general trend!”

All her tentacles spread open into a round wheel and slowly rotated behind her.

A peculiar forcefield encircled her. For a moment, she looked like the descending demon in the legends.

“General trend?” Yuria looked at his sister who had become unfamiliar.

“Come, brother. We will create a new world together.” Zhi Jinqin reached out to her brother with one tentacle as though she was reaching out her arm.

“I have an Immortal Body, Everlasting Body.”

“If I can’t die or change myself, then I can only change this world.”

Zhi Jinqin carried a smile.

Yuria looked at the tentacle extended before him.

“We will be the Adam and Eve of the new world.”

“The origins of Eden.” Zhi Jinqin’s face was flushed with excitement as though she could see the far future.

“I…” Yuria extended his arm, “reject!”

With a smack, he knocked away the tentacle before him.

The smile on Zhi Jinqin’s face froze.

******

White Crab Island was far in sight.

Garen stood at the bow of the ship while looking at the ruined island from afar. There were large amounts of shipwreck floating around.

“What about Sea God? And the Three Countries’ Allied Forces?”

“Looks like it is all wiped out.” Nine-Tailed Fox walked by him with a stunned face. No one could have predicted Zhi Jinqin of White Crab Island would be this strong with Three Countries’ Allied Forces, top experts as well as Sea God and Yuria together. Under these circumstances, Yuria’s powers as Saviour would be overwhelmingly terrifying once he lent everyone’s strength.

“Is this world going to end?” Kong Xinxue walked behind the duo, looking at White Crab Island from afar.

“Contact Sea God.” Garen remained calm. The Energy Machine Imprint could reenact the earlier battle scale in a matter of seconds and such a scale and level surpassed his expectations.

Kong Xinxue and Nine-Tailed Fox beside him immediately contacted Sea God with a communication device.

“I’m sorry, I have retreated to beneath the sea.” Sea God’s voice came from the communication device and automatically translated to a common language. “The opposition is far too strong.”

“The world of humans will be over before we know it.” Sea God’s voice carried a sense of helplessness and fatigue.

“This level…” Garen’s arms pressed on the railings, “surpassed the peak that this world could accommodate.”

“I have informed the specialists of the special team.”

“The situation will soon be conveyed to the highest members of Lighthouse.”

“Perhaps here, only Suppressor could resolve everything,” Sea God spoke in a deep voice.

“Suppressor…” Nine-Tailed Fox covered her mouth as she raised her voice.

“Illusionist is currently blending Savior into one,” Sea God swiftly explained. “Once she succeeds, the world is done for good.”

“I am not used to putting hope on other people.” Garen cut him off. “Just because you guys couldn’t do it, it doesn’t mean I can’t.”

“You have no reason to risk it,” Sea God advised. “I know you killed Slayer and most probably are stronger than me but the opponent this time is different. We transmigrators don’t have to take a risk. We just need to wait for Suppressor and everything will stabilize.”

“My disciple is there.” Garen lifted his long blade. “I will always personally take care of my people. Always had been and always will.”

He carried his long blade and gently leaped towards the frontal ocean surface.

Swoosh.

The moment he had almost fallen into the water, Garen vanished.
