Chapter 667: Golden Silkworm Scripture (1/2)
Feiyun got out of the rift and found himself in the cave back in Endless Land again. The seven-colored barrier behind him crumbled and turned into chaotic space.
These rifts required refinements and consolidation. Otherwise, even a Giant would be crushed to death inside.
The formations to stabilize the rift have been damaged. The rift itself was still there but couldn’t be used. A master versed in space would need to repair it for future usage.
“The ice palace broke down so these rifts and formations are done for too.” Feiyun stared at the rift and wondered who was the person who found and strengthened it.
Even an Enlightened Being might not know the methods to find spatial rifts and make passageways out of them.
It must have been the Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess. He recalled that during her departure, she pointed at the void and opened a portal - clearly indicating her mastery of spatial formations.
The ice in the cave has melted as well. The ice essences were gone too but this wasn’t surprising to Feiyun.
The cold energy here clearly had something to do with the ice palace. Now that the latter was gone, the energy has lost its source so it would naturally melt. Feiyun even speculated that the ice here wasn’t frozen water because it disappeared way too fast.
He took out an item. It had a golden brilliance with a Buddhist aura. It looked quite sacred as well.
This was the thing he got from the ice palace - a seven-inch golden statue of Maitreya Bodhisattva. The round, bald head made it look like a goose egg. This statue was happily laughing and sat cross-legged on a twelfth-ranked lotus seat. He wore a string of beads around his neck and had his palms placed together.
His robe was open, revealing his big stomach. However, the most noticeable thing for Feiyun was the golden silkworm on his back.
In the beginning, Feiyun thought that it was an egg.
On the second look, it looked like a baby silkworm.
On the third, it matured a bit more.
On the fourth glance, it turned into a silkworm.
On the fifth focus, it was releasing strings in a magical manner, almost like a golden dragon spewing out water.
On the sixth, the worm turned into a golden cocoon. The strings seemed to be heavenly laws intertwined together, resulting in a golden ball.
On the seventh attempt, the silkworm broke the cocoon and turned into a golden moth. It raised its wings with an aura comparable to a phoenix.
The seven transformations resembled seven rotating images. However, they had changes each time.
For example, the first one was just the shape of an egg. Alas, it was different every time in terms of shape.
Feiyun instantly recognized that the seven images were a supreme merit law with profound transformations. Just the first one with the egg had 1,800 variations.
