Chapter 635: Sudden Changes
FIZZ! FIZZ! FIZZ!
Strange sounds kept coming from Zhao Shanling’s void realm as it started to shine with bright light.
The sinister, ghostly claw Basto had formed with his Blood Essence and soul power seemed to be slowly going through layers of space in an attempt to rip Zhao Shanling and Nie Tian out from the space where they were hiding.
Underneath them, the Bone Blood Demon was struggling vigorously, hoping to break free from the meridians that had shot out of the Nethersoul Saber.
Thick meridians busted from time to time as the Bone Blood Demon struggled with all its strength. However, the busted meridians rapidly reformed and continued to bind the Bone Blood Demon.
Meanwhile, countless evil spirits continued to fly out of the Nethersoul Saber and into the meridians, providing the meridians with new power.
Hua Mu, who was finally relieved of the pressure from Basto, looked up, and an exclamation escaped his mouth, “Nie Tian?!”
Standing on his ancient bronze bell, he bolted up without hesitation. Unleashing dazzling golden light that was mixed with his soul power, he charged directly into the ghostly claw.
The golden light and his soul power twisted into extremely resilient strings that pierced right through the enormous claw.
Even so, the gruesome claw remained in its motion of grabbing towards Nie Tian and Zhao Shanling.
As Zhao Shanling let out a cold harrumph, unfathomable changes occurred in the depths of his eyes. “A Thousand Void Illusions!”
Immediately afterward, Nie Tian was hit by a feeling that was as if the void realm he and Zhao Shanling was in suddenly started falling farther and farther away from the Realm of Mystic Heaven towards some unknown space.
Images of numerous realms flashed rapidly before his eyes.
The large claw that was grabbing towards him seemed increasingly distant and illusory.
He glanced down at the ground and felt that he was separated from Hua Mu by endless void. In his eyes, Hua Mu looked like a reflection in the water that could disappear at any moment.
Subconsciously, he looked behind him and saw concentric rings gradually appear and spread.
There seemed to be a portal at the center of the rings. Glorious light could be seen flashing across within it, as if it led to some mysterious heaven and earth where no living beings would survive.
Nie Tian gasped with astonishment upon seeing it.
He had heard that Zhao Shanling had been banished to some distant space disruption zone and had his connection with the Domain of the Falling Stars cut off.
It was a place full of dangers and bereft of any spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. However, after a few years, he had miraculously found his way back.
Therefore, no one in the Domain of the Falling Stars knew that heaven and earth better than Zhao Shanling.
It seemed that if he escaped to that heaven and earth, no one would be able to catch him again.
“Is he going to take me to that heaven and earth?” he thought to himself.
While Nie Tian was overwhelmed by what was happening, he suddenly found to his surprise that he seemed to have stopped moving backward.
The enormous, ghostly claw that was coming at him a moment ago was also nowhere to be found.
He glanced around and discovered that Hua Mu and the fierce battles were also gone.
Not just that, but even his connection with the Bone Blood Demon was cut off.
Zhao Shanling let out a sigh of relief. Looking somewhat tired, he jerked his head towards Nie Tian and said, “Such powerful soul magic. It almost pierced through my seven layers of space. I’ve consumed a significant amount of power to protect you from that attack. You’d better remember what you’ve promised me.”
“Of course I will,” Nie Tian said without hesitation.
“Alright, Basto has probably refocused on Hua Mu and the other two from the Spirit Condor by now. We can go back now.” As soon as Zhao Shanling uttered these words, Nie Tian was hit by a feeling as if the distance between him and the Realm of Mystic Heaven was being rapidly shortened. The void realm he was in seemed to be traveling through space at an alarming speed.
It wasn’t long before he found himself floating high over the battlefield again.
At this moment, the Bone Blood Demon had already shattered the meridians that were binding it and broken free. However, after losing its connection with Nie Tian, it was now attacking a Demon that had activated Ancestral Awakening.
Basto was now holding his Nethersoul Saber and swinging it at Hua Mu, though the light in his eyes seemed a bit dimmer than before.
However, Hua Mu seemed to be in a worse condition than Basto. With an insecure and uneasy look on his face, he seemed to be worrying about something.
The moment Nie Tian returned, the connection between him and the Bone Blood Demon was reestablished, and he made Basto its primary target again. “Go!”
The Bone Blood Demon instantly ended its battle against that Demon expert and bolted towards Basto.
Basto burst into a flaming rage. “You actually dare to come back?!”
“Go, Nie Tian!” Hua Mu shouted at the top of his lungs. “Get out of here!”
With these words, fine veins started to become visible and bulge up on Hua Mu’s face, as if they were tiny slithering snakes.
At the same time, a mysterious light could be seen flickering in the depths of his eyes, as if something was about to charge out of him.
