Chapter 377 The Stain That Covers the Sky
Chapter 377 The Stain That Covers the Sky
Si Chun was bewildered: "Huh?"
If you don't run now, when will you run?
The two sides started fighting again in their sacred realms, ignoring the two or three kittens nearby.
If we don't leave now, something might attract our attention.
They will be easily refined, just like Qinxin and Qingyun.
Si Chun thought and thought, but still couldn't come up with a solution.
She said urgently, "Young Master Su, let's go quickly—"
boom!
Before he could finish speaking, the world suddenly changed.
Just now, the will of the world descended and suppressed everyone present.
Yet the world remained clear and everything was still in order!
While there may be turbulent changes, these are still changes within the natural world, part of the overall landscape.
But now, after a tremendous tremor, darkness suddenly appeared in the distance.
Darkness, like a vortex of lightless darkness, swallowed everything it enveloped.
Whether it's the sky, the earth, or the distant mountains and rivers.
Once shrouded in darkness, it falls silently.
Everything fell into that darkness and instantly became silent.
There was no earth-shattering explosion, nor any earth-shaking noise.
Everything happened so naturally, slowly, enveloped in darkness.
"What is that?" Si Chun asked blankly.
boom!
Zhou Nanchu had one arm blown off, which took the form of a blade of grass that could unleash astonishing sword energy.
It's hard to believe that this is a wood-attribute spiritual herb that can unleash such a fierce attack.
"Ugh!" Zhou Nanchu cried out in pain, clutching his severed arm, his eyes flashing with hatred.
Cheng Bi coldly said, "Surrender and I can give you a quick death."
She showed no mercy and had no need to deceive or let the other party go.
The situation is now overwhelmingly advantageous, and Zhou Nanchu has no chance of escaping.
If this had happened before, Cheng Bi would have had a hard time dealing with a strong opponent of the same level.
This place is not only Hongxingya's old lair, but Zhou Nanchu also has endless backup plans.
But he used up all his preparations just to deal with a few brats.
He also suffered injuries and a significant decrease in strength due to a conflict with Zhe Shawei.
Cheng Bi had all the advantages and was just waiting to kill him here.
boom!
At that moment, darkness unfolded on the distant horizon.
Zhou Nanchu turned her head and exclaimed in shock: "The world is collapsing!"
The darkness in the distance is the collapse of the Red Apricot Garden!
Darkness is nothing but nothingness!
Nothingness is absolute stillness, devoid of even spacetime, matter, and energy.
Everything that falls into it will lose all its characteristics.
The mountains and rivers no longer have rocks, and the water has lost its direction of flow.
The sun and moon have lost their light, and the stars have dimmed.
In absolute nothingness, there is neither existence nor disappearance, nor life nor death!
Falling into it is tantamount to being completely wiped out of the world!
So everything is so silent and stealthy; once you fall into it, you lose all trace!
"How could it be such a coincidence!" Cheng Bi's eyes flickered, finding it unbelievable.
She said she could leave Hongxingyuan at any time, unless the world collapses!
Not long after, the secret realm changed!
"Damn it, I've actually gotten addicted to this little secret realm!" Cheng Bi cursed under his breath, as a stream of light swirled around him.
The world's will is mostly peaceful, especially in large domains, and it generally does not participate in ordinary affairs.
Living beings grow and thrive, absorbing the energy of heaven and earth and comprehending the great Dao.
When death occurs, the power dissipates and always returns to the realm.
Certainly, some beings can absorb the power of the realm itself, such as mastering the Emperor's Way, thereby controlling the Heavenly Way.
However, in most cases, the growth of living beings is always beneficial to the realm.
Power from a wider world will gradually flow in through cultivation.
The realm is like a pond, and living beings are like the fish, insects, duckweed, and algae within it.
It gradually incorporates nutrients from sunlight and the atmosphere.
After death, they become corpses, decompose, and return to the pond.
Normally, the world's will does not participate in anything, but simply passes by calmly for millions of eras.
However, there are also some realms where the path of life and wisdom is too intense, which will generate likes and dislikes.
They tend to use their superior strength to hunt living beings.
Those realms often have strange rules.
For example, one cannot look directly at the sun; that might be the eye of the realm.
Or perhaps the inability to enter the darkness is a claw of the realm.
The creatures in those realms live even more miserable lives, constantly struggling against their environment.
Another possibility is that it could be a small-scale domain like Red Apricot Origin.
The world's will can be communicated and guided to take various actions.
Or it can form a barrier to intercept outsiders.
Or to aid in battle and suppress the enemy.
The Holy Realm is powerful enough to contend with such a secret realm.
It's impossible to suppress the world's will without paying a price.
In order to fight against Cheng Bi, Zhou Nanchu sacrificed everything in Hongxingyuan.
The will of the world suppresses living beings, devours spiritual energy, and even decomposes the Great Dao.
I could actually taste it!
It was as if a carnivore had tasted blood and felt the beauty of those powers.
Even if it means destroying everything within the secret realm, we must preserve the most delicious food!
Even as the world collapses, it remains within the realm of secrets.
Those beautiful landscapes are simply in line with human aesthetics.
The world's will has no similar feelings; it will destroy whatever it wants, without caring.
It's all worth it if I can consume all its power!
Cheng Bi gritted her teeth: "Damn it, how could there be such a greedy thing?"
Her body was shimmering with light; it was time to retreat.
Although everyone was standing in the air, they were still inside the secret realm, essentially standing on a floor.
If the world collapses, it's like a floorboard breaking; those on top will simply fall.
Flying in the air is easy, but how difficult is it to fly out of space?
Swish!
Cheng Bi was surrounded by swirling light. She flashed away, trying to escape before the world collapsed.
Snapped!
Just then, Zhou Nanchu appeared beside Cheng Bi in a flash.
He frantically raised his remaining arm, forming a hand seal: "Trying to run? Too late!"
Swish swish!
Thousands upon thousands of vines shot out, instantly forming a dense primeval jungle in the space.
In the blink of an eye, Cheng Bi was enveloped inside.
"You old bastard, you want to die!" Cheng Bi roared, his body transforming into a phantom of Zhan Yincao, unleashing countless sword energies.
In just a moment, the dense primeval forest was cut down into pieces, with wood chips flying everywhere.
But Zhou Nanchu showed no sign of letting her go: "You want me to die? Then you're not leaving either!"
He made another hand seal, and the vines grew again, continuing to wrap around the plant in emerald green.
Zhou Nanchu was seriously injured and has now lost the ability to communicate with the world's will.
Since we can't escape anyway, we might as well drag the other person down with us.
Enraged, Cheng Bi unleashed a barrage of sword energy, slicing through the forest.
She was originally a wood-type demon, so she was not afraid of this kind of magic and could even destroy it easily.
Even though Zhou Nanchu was weak, he was still a Saint Realm cultivator. Despite her best efforts to stop him, Zhou Nanchu could only struggle to cope.
The sword energy could destroy the primeval jungle, but it also hindered her departure.
"You old scoundrel!" Cheng Bi roared, "If you want to die, then I'll send you on your way!"
"A mere trick, and you think you can stop me!"
"I can kill you before the world collapses!"
After saying that, the sword energy she released became even more fierce, and several of them even seriously injured Zhou Nanchu.
But Zhou Nanchu wasn't afraid; instead, she laughed even more wildly: "Too late, too late!"
Cheng Bi scoffed: "The world is far from collapsing; I'm afraid you won't live to see that day!"
Zhou Nanchu's eyes were filled with madness: "Early? It's no early, it's time to get going!"
Cheng Bi's heart skipped a beat; she sensed something was amiss and abruptly turned her head: "What..."
That darkness had somehow covered the entire sky.
The darkness was beginning to expand, very slowly.
With each breath, it rises only a little bit higher, obscuring a little more of the sky.
The near appears larger and the far appears smaller. Anyone who sees it would think it's just a speck of dirt on the horizon, nothing special and not worth paying attention to.
But when she got close enough, Cheng Bi suddenly woke up!
