Chapter 29 - The Grand Scheme (1/2)
Somewhere within the deepest part of the Dark Forest, there was a dark, oppressive swamp filled with thick, wet fog.
The air around that area was filled with gray gas which greatly reduced visibility. Even the harshest sunlight would be unable to penetrate the low clouds and gloomy fog.
A wave of cold air blew by, accompanied by the rancid taste brought by the chilly wind.
If anyone who had less courage stepped in here, they might not even have the guts to take a step forward. Not only that, anyone walking through this area would feel a constant chill on their skin.
In that same place, where nobody dared to step a foot in, an old tattered palace loomed over the surrounding area. it was a tall palace made with some sort of black stones.
Maybe because of its ancientness or the lack of maintenance, there were a lot of grasses and vines intertwined in its lower parts.
” I swear, I will kill that old ghost one day and lay waste of his empire including everything he held dear.”
Suddenly, a loud angry voiced filled with hatred rang out from that same very palace. The angry voice reverberated throughout the whole area surrounding the dark palace.
The voice of that thing or person was like it came from space, its vibration made all the blood of the beasts or person living within the dark palace to boil.
At the same time, a dark oppressive aura that could make any living beings cower in fear was released from that place.
Within the dark palace, where the angry voice came from, there was a huge hall. The ground was covered with a bloody red carpet with a complex devilish design.
A dozen thick pillars of different colors were irregularly placed all over the main hall. Even though the main hall was very big, it was completely empty. Except for the huge shadowy image that can be seen behind the huge curtain at the very end of the Hall.
Soon, an old man walked into the main hall. Once he arrived in front of the huge white curtain, he kneeled down on one knee with his right hand on his left chest.
His long white beard almost touched the ground. he looked very ancient and his body was emitting an oppressive aura. from his aura alone suggested that he was a very powerful man yet in front of the person behind the curtain, that person felt like an ant.
” The Eye sees everything, The Eye controls everything, Nothing can escape the Eye, And everything under the Heaven and Earth belongs to the Eye.”
” The 7th Eye pays his respect to the Progenitor.” Respectfully said the old man to the person behind the curtain. If one could see his eyes, one would have noticed a light of worship in them.
” How did it go?.” This was none other than the voice of that angry person from earlier.
