Free Web NovelChapter 226: Chapter 198: [True Reversed Celestial Spirit]
But right now, the Eye of the Gap was ignoring the physical pain.
’This is impossible!!’
’This fiend also cultivated Reversed Celestial Spirit?!’
This unbelievable scene made the Eye of the Gap’s very soul tremble. It shrieked in terror, its confidence shattered, and it almost broke down completely on the spot.
’Are you kidding me!’
The Great Divine Technique that it had spent ten thousand years, countless life-and-death trials, and endured endless hardships to cultivate...
And just like that...
...was so easily learned by some upstart who came out of nowhere.
’Are the heavens toying with me?!’
But it was overthinking things.
Of course, Wu Dao didn’t know that stupid Reversed Celestial Spirit technique. He had something far stronger, more potent, and more convenient: mastery over Magnetic Fields!
He didn’t need to absorb Power at all!
’Whatever you throw at me, I’ll just distort and redirect!’
His avatar had been too weak.
It truly couldn’t perform such a feat.
But his current Main Body...
"Surprise, surprise! Didn’t see that coming, did you? Hahaha!"
Wu Dao looked at the shocked and disbelieving Eye of the Gap, a grin splitting his face from ear to ear as he spoke in a Sen Leng voice:
"I called you trash. Was I wrong? Huh?! Answer me!!"
The Eye of the Gap couldn’t speak. It couldn’t answer.
Because...
...it was about to burst from the strain.
All it could do was reverse the rampaging Power within its body and send it back out.
But it had gotten smarter.
It didn’t attack Wu Dao.
Instead, it discharged the Power toward the Abyss below.
As long as it didn’t hit Wu Dao.
Wu Dao’s ’Reversed Celestial Spirit’ would be useless, and it would get a chance to catch its breath.
However...
The Eye of the Gap’s fleeting hope had just surfaced when it was overwhelmed by a new, even more profound terror.
RUMBLE!!
Power sufficient to annihilate hundreds of miles of the world had just shot out from the Eye of the Gap’s shriveled form.
Before it could even leave the sky...
...before the Eye of the Gap’s disbelieving gaze, it slammed into a wall woven from countless colorful lines.
Like a ball bouncing off a wall, it ricocheted back and poured into the Eye of the Gap’s body.
"AHHH!!!"
A miserable, blood-curdling scream rang out!
This time.
The Eye of the Gap’s swollen body finally split wide open, revealing countless shattered, crimson eyeballs within.
"Impossible! Impossible! How in the world did you do that?!?!"
The mountain-sized, swollen Eye of the Gap stared with eyes that seemed about to split, roaring madly at Wu Dao. Confusion, despair, terror—a chaotic storm of negative emotions drove it to the brink of insanity.
"My Primordial Magnetic Marvelous House. Do you like it?"
Wu Dao had no intention of explaining or showing off. He just grinned as currents of Primordial Magnetism formed a throne in the center of the world. He sat upon it commandingly.
At the same time.
The heaven-sealing, earth-imprisoning Primordial Magnetic Celestial Prison Cage fully manifested from the void. The landscape for hundreds of miles around vanished, replaced on all sides by colorful walls constructed from countless Magnetic Field lines.
"Come now, entertain me!"
Atop his throne, Wu Dao looked down on the swollen Eye of the Gap as if watching a circus clown. His two rows of perfectly aligned, shark-like teeth made him look like a Purgatory Demon God:
"The prize is an intact corpse!"
HUMMM~
As his voice fell.
Wu Dao flicked his finger, and a small, concentrated current of a Celestial Essence Magnetic Burst shot into the Eye of the Gap’s body, which was already at its Limit.
"AHH!!"
Another scream, so terrifying it could make a listener wet themselves, echoed through the ’Primordial Magnetic Marvelous House’.
The Eye of the Gap, which was already at its Limit...
...after Wu Dao injected yet another surge of Power, finally couldn’t hold on any longer. Even knowing it would suffer an even stronger backlash, it still reversed the Power out of its body.
And then...
Unsurprisingly...
...after the Power it reversed slammed into the wall of the Primordial Magnetic Celestial Prison Cage, it was redirected by the Magnetic Field and poured back into its body once again.
BANG BANG BANG—
The Eye of the Gap’s body rapidly inflated like a punctured rubber ball, covered in a dense web of cracks. The eyeballs within exploded into a liquid that gushed and splattered everywhere.
What was even more depraved was...
"Scream, you insect! I’m not feeling a thing yet!!"
Wu Dao shouted in displeasure, dissatisfied that the Eye of the Gap hadn’t screamed. He flicked his finger, and another blast of Celestial Essence Magnetic Burst poured into its body!
"AHH!! Just kill me!!"
The Eye of the Gap couldn’t take it anymore and roared in despair.
In era after era...
...it had been suppressed countless times.
But it had never encountered a monster, a madman, a Demon like Wu Dao, who made it despair from the bottom of its heart with his sheer brutality.
Now, all it wanted was to die.
With that drop of essential blood protecting its core...
...Wu Dao couldn’t truly kill it.
Although the aftermath would be grim...
...it could at least escape this Purgatory-like torture.
But was that even possible?
But Wu Dao was a very petty man.
’You just tortured me over and over. If I don’t return the favor, doesn’t that make me look weak?’
So.
Wu Dao ignored the Eye of the Gap’s desperate roars. Listening to the screams that brought him such physical and mental pleasure, he smiled in satisfaction:
"Heh heh, you silly thing. Aren’t I killing you right now?"
"You... AHH!!"
BOOM!!
Before the Eye of the Gap could finish its terrified and despairing words, it was once again stuffed full of rebounded Power. Its humanoid form completely exploded, revealing the true form of the Eye of the Blood Moon.
This meant...
...the game had only just begun!
"AHHH!!!"
BOOM!!
"Spare me!"
BOOM!!
"I’m begging you!"
BOOM!!
"*Sob*... My fau..."
BOOM!!
...
Within the Primordial Magnetic Celestial Prison Cage that enveloped the world, the sounds of despairing wails and explosive expansions echoed ceaselessly.
Until the wails grew fainter and fainter.
Until they finally faded away completely.
Inside the Primordial Magnetic Celestial Prison Cage.
"Tch, is that it?"
Wu Dao shook his head, completely bored. For a Fierce Monster that had supposedly experienced thousands of life-and-death situations and lived for over ten thousand years.
’To think its mental fortitude was so poor.’
’How embarrassing!’
’Ah, no, it’s a disgrace to all Fierce Monsters!’
"Let’s see what secrets you’re hiding!"
Sweeping his Spiritual Perception through the remains of the Eye of the Blood Moon, which had been reduced to countless fragments of eyeballs, Wu Dao quickly located the core of the Eye of the Gap.
It was a stone-carved eyeball.
It was suffused with an incredibly ancient aura.
It seemed to be from a long-forgotten era.
The faith totem of some tribe.
But it was clearly some kind of Evil God.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have gained sentience, become a terrifying legend, and transformed into a Fierce Monster.
’There’s nothing special about it?’
Wu Dao deployed his full Magnetic Field perception, carefully examining the human-head-sized stone eyeball, feeling a little puzzled.
Because...
...he didn’t detect any ominous aura from it.
But, to be on the safe side...
...he didn’t touch it right away. He cautiously extended lines from his Magnetic Field, probing and approaching it little by little.
HUMMM~
Just as the lines of the Magnetic Field were about to touch the Stone Eye...
...something unexpected happened!
RUMBLE—
A monstrous sea of blood surged to the heavens, and the Star River itself seemed to plummet!
An ominous aura—one of slaughtering endless living beings, of massacring the Gods and Demons of All Heavens, of butchering its way to absolute supremacy across the universe—erupted violently.
An indescribable spiritual pressure...
...instantly made Wu Dao feel like an ant facing a True Dragon soaring through the Nine Heavens. It was the pressure from the absolute apex of the food chain, making him want only to submit and worship, unable to form a single independent thought.
Exhale!
Inhale!
Divine, Ghostly, Celestial Release!
Celestial Human State—no desires, no thoughts!
Any Heart Demon, any negative emotion!
All were cut down and erased as mere distractions!
HUM!
But in the brief instant that Wu Dao was suppressed...
...the Stone Eye seized the opportunity. It transformed into a streak of light and, empowered by that terrifyingly ominous aura, actually smashed through the wall of the Primordial Magnetic Celestial Prison Cage and shot toward the Abyss below.
"Trying to escape?!"
Wu Dao broke free from the pressure. His massive hand shot out, weaving a celestial net from his Magnetic Field to block its path, determined not to let his prize escape.
However.
The Stone Eye was as slippery as an eel. Even when enveloped by the massive hand of the Magnetic Field, it still managed to slip out.
RUMBLE—
Seeing that the Magnetic Field hand was useless, Wu Dao didn’t hesitate. He shattered the void, plunged into the Abyss, and gave chase, hot on the heels of the fleeing Stone Eye.
Beneath the collapsed Abyss.
Deep underground, where perception was impossible due to the influence of the Earth Evil Miasma.
Wu Dao had just burst in...
...when he discovered...
...that a vast, subterranean World lay hidden beneath the Abyss.
During the great battle moments ago...
...although much of it had collapsed and been buried, the remaining space was still vast. With his Spiritual Perception being interfered with, all he could sense was darkness upon darkness.
He couldn’t even ’see’ the boundaries.
Fortunately.
Although the Magnetic Field was in disarray...
...he could still track the direction the Stone Eye was moving.
RUMBLE—
Within the subterranean Dark World...
The moment Wu Dao locked onto the Stone Eye, he instantly exploded at full speed. He smashed through the obstructing ruins, crossed a hundred miles in the blink of an eye, and shot out his massive hand, snatching the fleeing Stone Eye.
"Running, are we? Go on, keep running..."
His large hand gripping the Stone Eye, Wu Dao gave a Sen Leng sneer. He was just about to swallow it whole and use his attribute panel to completely annihilate it.
But just then...
...the Stone Eye opened, like the eye of a ruling Demon God from a bottomless Abyss. It shot Wu Dao a mocking glance, and a profound, ominous, blood-red light shot from its center.
It pierced through all his defenses, even bypassing his precognitive sense of danger, and drilled straight into his soul through the space between his brows.
And with that one glance...
THUD!
All the color drained from Wu Dao’s eyes, leaving them vacant. Like an empty shell, his entire body went rigid and toppled to the ground.
RUMBLE—
The air compressed by his previous full-speed sprint expanded, creating a raging hurricane. Shattered stone pillars collapsed, and amid the tremors, the entire subterranean world was buried.
Endless darkness...
...swallowed everything whole.
