Chapter 994 - 446: Source!
It was none other than the mysterious orb containing strange energy he obtained after slaying that bizarre fierce beast!
At this moment, Yu Kong could no longer afford to investigate the origin and use of the orb!
He was relying on a kind of intuition!
A kind of insane intuition from the brink of death!
Pouring all his Spiritual Power inside him, even burning a portion of the Source!
Desperately flooding into this gray orb!
Buzz!!!
The gray orb began to violently tremble!
The twisted patterns on it seemed to come alive!
A breath that was indescribable, full of Deathly Silence, cold, yet containing some terrifying undertone of devouring everything erupted suddenly!
A gray ripple visible to the naked eye spread outwards from the orb!
Where the ripple passed, space seemed to "freeze"!
Time appeared to momentarily stagnate!
The Law Net, capable of destroying heaven and earth, made a sizzling sound the instant it touched the gray ripple!
It was as if ice and snow encountered a hot iron!
The violent Law Fragments forming the net began to melt at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Becoming dim!
Becoming sluggish!
Even the terrifying will it had burst forth, under the impact of the gray ripple, emitted a roar of anger and doubt like a wounded beast!
"What what is this Power?!"
The will seemingly could not comprehend why this Power, which appeared not to belong to this cosmic system, was able to restrain its proud Law attack!
Taking advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Yu Kong’s eyes flashed with sharp light!
He didn’t hesitate for a moment!
Suppressing the soul-wrenching pain and bodily weakness, using the final trace of power obtained by burning the Source, transforming into a streak of light!
Rushed ferociously toward the dark gold armor nearby!
His target was clear!
Not to seize the armor!
But to enter the shadow region of the Skeleton Mountains!
He gambled!
Gambling that the shadow could block the riverbed’s will attack!
Gambling that the lingering aura of the predecessors could give him a glimmer of hope!
Thud!
The gray ripple ultimately could not completely withstand the terrifying Law Net, and the remaining power still struck fiercely onto Yu Kong’s back!
The Divine Armor shattered instantly!
Yu Kong spewed blood frantically once more, his back a bloody mess deep enough to see bones!
But he took advantage of this impact, like a cannonball, smashing into the deep shadow!
Bang!
Almost at the instant he entered the shadow, the violent Law Net lost its target, rampaging mindlessly above the riverbed for a moment, finally dispersing reluctantly.
The terrifying will also emitted an angry roar.
Seemingly trying to rush into the shadow, but apparently blocked by some invisible obstacle.
Ultimately, with endless discontent and brutality, it returned to the depths of the riverbed in silence.
Everything returned to calm.
As if the apocalyptic scene just now had never happened.
Only the Law Crystal Stone still flickering with alluring light yet emitting a deadly aura silently narrates the horror of this place.
Within the shadow, Yu Kong collapsed to the ground, gasping for air.
Covered in blood.
His breath was weak to the extreme.
He felt as if all his bones had scattered.
The deep-seated soul pain continued to torment him.
The after-effects of burning the Source started to reveal themselves.
Yet his eyes glittered with the relief and excitement of surviving a disaster!
"The gamble paid off!"
"This shadow indeed isolates that ghastly entity’s attack!"
He struggled to raise his head, his gaze falling on the not far dark gold armor lying quietly.
Observing closely.
He could better appreciate the extraordinary nature of this armor!
Although broken, its material was neither gold nor jade, engraved with countless mysterious and ancient Runes.
Though most were eroded, the remaining ones still emitted heart-palpitating fluctuations of Power.
It seemed every Rune contained an entire great avenue!
Most crucially, that trace of aura belonging to the mysterious predecessor.
Here it became clearer!
As if the predecessor once stood here, gazed at this armor, possibly even touched it by hand!
"Who exactly are you, predecessor?"
"And what is your connection to the Celestial Fall Battlefield?"
Yu Kong muttered to himself.
His heart filled with endless curiosity and awe.
He braced his body.
Extended a trembling hand.
Slowly reached out to touch the cold dark gold armor.
Just as his fingertips were about to touch the armor.
Buzz!!!
The remaining Runes on the armor suddenly lit up!
A vast yet desolate thought surged into Yu Kong’s mind like a breaking flood!
It wasn’t an attack!
But a stream of broken, vague information!
Yu Kong’s brain seemed about to explode!
Countless phantasmagoric images flashed before his eyes!
He seemingly saw
A starry sky more vast than the Celestial Fall Battlefield by billions!
Countless strong, indescribable figures in battle!
Stars shattered like dust!
The cosmos tore like a canvas!
A figure clad in dark gold armor, like an indestructible War God, wielding a weapon of unseeable appearance, charged at the forefront!
His opponent was a terrifying shadow that covered the sky, was a grotesque unnameable thing!
Every strike shattered the galaxy!
Every roar deterred the ages!
But there were too many enemies.
Too powerful.
Blood stained the starry sky.
Armor shattered.
Battle to frenzy!
Finally, that dark gold figure let out a roar that echoed across the cosmos!
Carrying endless determination and resolve, transformed into a light piercing through time, crashing into the boundless darkness, and the scene abruptly halted!
