Chapter 99 - Separation (1/2)

Jean raised an eyebrow and asked. ”How do you not know? You are strong, aren't you?”

”I don't know! I just don't know! That 'Thing'... He doesn't have any Profound Energy! It is like the same as sensing the area around yourself, you just can't sense anything!” Jasmine answered with a worried gaze.

It was alright to a certain level for a cultivator to hide from a Divine Master, who stands at the peak of the world and is able to destroy suns with a swing of their hands. But to be able to perfectly hide one's Profound Energy from her, who is also a specialist on this subject, is impossible!

And yet, here the impossible turned to a certain thing…

This… Glitch… was able to freely walk in front of her, and completely conceal his Profound Energy… The Glitch-like figure let out a chuckle and looked directly at Jean, no, he seemed to be looking even deeper. ”L̷i̸t̵t̴l̵e̷ ̸J̸a̸s̶m̵i̷n̷e̴…̵”

(”The fear without reason is what is called True Fear, it's like countless insects climbing on your body and entering inside you… This is why everyone would prefer having fear for a reason, at least you have an idea to stop having fear.”)

Jasmine finally understood what it was like…

Just by calling her name, she finally understood that the entity was looking past Jean and gazing directly at her eyes.

Just by calling her name, she finally understood what the entity wanted to say.

Just by calling her name, she felt like centipedes and spiders were crawling all over her body, entering inside her through the mouth, nose, ears, even eyes… All the entrances she had.

She couldn't stop shaking and twitching until the entity lost interest on her… When he did, Jasmine squatted down and hugged her body, while her body kept twitching.

Meanwhile, Jean panicked. Clearly, the entity was able to see through the Sky Poison Pearl and find Jasmine. But the entity didn't seem to be here for her…

Now the entity was looking directly at Jean…

Suddenly, Jean found Cang Yue and Fen Juechen standing in front of him, acting as shields, even though it was useless…

”We won't let you get a step near!”

The figure chuckled again, and called out. ”C̸a̷n̸g̶ ̷Y̷u̶e̶,̶ ̷F̷e̶n̶ ̴J̸u̸e̴c̶h̴e̷n̷…̴ ̴Y̴o̵u̸ ̴t̵w̸o̴ ̷s̵h̷o̸u̶l̵d̷n̷'̴t̵ ̶i̶n̶t̷e̸r̶f̵e̵r̷e̶.̶ ̶T̴a̷k̸e̵ ̵c̷a̵r̸e̸ ̴o̵f̵ ̸y̷o̶u̶r̵ ̷o̸w̷n̴ ̵p̵r̵o̸b̵l̸e̴m̸s̴…̷”

”T-This…”

Jasmine's trembling voice echoed in Jean's mind, and words that surprised him a bit came out. ”H… He didn't interfere with the Laws of Space in the slightest… Like it was natural for the universe to teleport people…”

Not interfering with the Laws of Space?! That's just a lie! Any attempt at teleportation or something at that level such as creating pocket dimensions will show some distortions in the Laws of Space, it was impossible not interfering with them, it is like saying that to create iron with bȧrė hands one needs paper, it can't be done no matter how strong you are!

The Evil God was specialized in interfering with the laws, no matter what he does, he could achieve something that goes against nature. Like using fire and ice at the same time at their fullest, however it will interfere with the Universal Laws to a certain point, but doing that without interfering the Universal Laws can't be done.

Jean understood what Jasmine meant when she said to run away as fast as possible. He immediately used Star God's Broken Shadow to escape, but he was unable to move of a single inch…

”D̶o̷n̷'̷t̴ ̸r̵u̸n̵ ̷a̴w̴a̶y̴,̵ ̴J̵e̵a̷n̵…̴ ̴T̷h̴e̴r̵e̴ ̷a̴r̸e̵ ̴t̷h̵i̵n̶g̸s̵ ̷t̸o̵ ̵d̸o̶.̸.̶.̶”

The glitched entity spoke again. Jean blinked, before the scenery changed instantly, like as if he was watching two different frames that were attached to each other.

He was inside something that looked like a square arena with walls surrounding the arena and a ceiling over his head.

He didn't know what happened, but he was suddenly inside an arena that popped out from nothing. he looked around the arena, and only saw a timer and a number under the timer. It was for quite a time that he saw it, but how could he not recognize modern technology?

It was a digital timer with 1:00 written over it, and was slowly counting down every second. under the time, there was a 0/100.

There was a familiar feeling that this place was giving him, but he couldn't put a finger on it….
