"What's happening!?"
"What the hell was that sound? My ears are aching!"
The people present all heard the cracking sound that made the very air tremble and strike their eardrums harshly. It wasn't something that could be easily done to Immortals unless the sound was very loud or was close to a sonic boom.
The experienced among them though, sensed more than just the harsh sound. They sensed the intense Spatial Fluctuations that went beyond the common ones that they would feel in their daily lives.
"This… how can the Spatial Fluctuations be this intense!?" Daoist Chu was stunned.
"This is beyond the opening of a Teleportation array." Ziran assessed. "Because this is more than that…" Lady Kang pointed at the sky. "The World's Spatial Fabric… it's breaking." She watched with wide eyes.
A fine black line could be seen spreading across the Rust colored sky. It extended from the easter end of the horizon all the way to the west, looking endless.
Lin Mu who was observing this with his Spatial Perception though saw a lot more.
'The Spatial Lock has disappeared but now the Spatial Fabric is collapsing on its own? How's this happening?' he was confused. Breaking the Spatial Fabric was not something that could be done easily, especially on a large scale like this. It was one thing opening Spatial Rifts and portals, but tearing open the Spatial Fabric around an entire world was something that was immensely difficulty.
Even for a Transcendent Immortal it would be beyond their limits unless they were Spatial Master. For Lin Mu, this was still way beyond his capabilities which meant that this was blind done by something or someone that was very strong.~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~
The crack started to expanded and the darkness gave way to something familiar. Instead of the Rust Colored Sky, everyone in the World could see a dark landscape above them!
There were large rivers of black water flowing on it that stirred with ominous energies. Just looking at it gave one chills and made them feeling like it was something unnatural.
Everyone was confused by the appearance of the landmass which was now expanding more and more.
"It's growing?" Crown Princess Shang furrowed her brows. "No… It's coming closer!" Crown Prince Feng Shun replied observing the expanding landmass.
"Amithabha… That's all Baleful energies and Death Qi." Monk Hushu could sense them all the way here due to just how intense they were. "That's the Bridge plane." He recognized.
His words struck true as everyone soon began to match the landmass with what they had experienced before. There was no mistaking it, for they had spent eight years surviving in that place.
~SHUA~
"It really is…" Just to be sure Daoist Chu took out his old Chimeric Beast Radar tool and activated it.
As soon as he did, the projection of the map of the bridge plane appeared, perfectly matching its outline with what they were seeing on the sky.
"How is the Bridge Plane appearing here?" They were confused.
~SCREEECH~SCREEECH~SCREEECH~
They didn't get to think about it long though, as a foul yet familiar cry could be heard coming from the sky.
~WHOOSH~
The group soon saw a dark mass moving towards them, seemingly 'falling' from the Bridge Plane. As the dark mass got closer they finally saw what it was.
"Chimeric Beasts! Millions of them!" Daoist Chu saw the radar light up brightly in red.
There were so many of them that the Radar couldn't even register them beyond a point and simply painted the entire map red!
"Dammit! PREPARE FOR BATTLE!" Lin Mu declared knowing this was probably going to be the worst battle that the entire Rust Sky world will face.
~SHING~ SHING~
He preemptively attacked, slashing out at the sky with his Sword Skills.
"Great Slaughter Pine! Great Ocean Rake!" Lin Mu used them to take out as many Chimeric beasts as he could before they reached the world's atmosphere.
The distance between the Bridge Plane and the Rust Sky World was still over a hundred kilometers but it was quickly getting closer. "Don't hold back! This will be a war for our lives and the world!" Crown Prince Feng Shun shouted, directly summoning his Dao Embryos. ~RUMBLE~
~WHOOSH~
Wind and thunder was heard as the two Dao Embryos manifested their powers with Dao Traces combining into a single entity, turning into a Flag Spear.
"Storm King Immortal Arts! Dao Skill: Fulgarian King's Wrath!" Crown Prince Feng Shun threw out the Flag Spear.
~BOOM~
The spear soared faster than the speed of sound, arriving in the midst of the Chimeric Beast swarm and exploding.
It was as if a storm had been born, as it started to devour all that stood in its path. The Chimeric beasts were torn apart by the beasts and blasted into smithereens by the lightning. Crown Prince Feng Shun's Dao Skill was strong, but it was still just a drop in the ocean. They weren't just facing one of the Chimeric beast swarms from twenty five years ago, they were facing all the Chimeric Beasts that lived in the Bridge Plane. While they had certainly killed a lot of them, their numbers had grown back in the twenty five years they were away.
The others also joined in, using their strongest skills.
"Looks like it is finally time to use it." Daoist Chu's expression grew serious.
He then took out a hundred thousands talismans and talisman flags, and began setting up a large array. Four talisman flags each arranged themselves according to the four cardinal directions, while Four Talismans arranged themselves perpendicular to the Talisman flags, forming a Three Dimensional Cross.
But that was just a singular formation unit, as more such formations began to form. Eight such formation units combined into a large scale unit, and eight large scale units combined in large array unit. These array units kept on repeating over and over, until they covered an area of a hundred kilometer at once!
When all of them were in position, Daoist Chu took out a small dagger from his storage. The dagger was rather crude and was covered in rust. But a few characters could be seen written on it's blade.
If one looked closely they would be able to see that it read 'Annihilation'.
Daoist Chu held the dagger firmly with his right hand and cut his left palm decisively.
~SLICK~
Vibrant red bowled flowed out of it that was quickly absorbed by the rusty dagger.
"Grand Qi Annihilating Talisman Array!" Daoist Chu commanded, raising the dagger at the sky and pointing it at the Chimeric beasts.
~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~
At his command, each of the individual formation units fired out small rays of pure Qi. These small rays intersected at a certain distance combining into a small beam, which further intersected with other smaller beams and turned into a massive beam that covered an area of five hundred meters.
"Annihilate!" Daoist Chu was like a conductor in an Opera as he directed the beam with the rusty dagger.
~BOOM~
The large beam streaked across the sky, destroying the Chimeric beasts that were in its path. It was like a flaming hot knife, cutting through butter, as it cleaved through the Chimeric Beast swarms. It was so strong that even the ground of the bridge plane was getting destroyed by it, leaving large ravines.
"DIE YOU ALL FILTHY BEASTS! THIS IS THE FRUIT OF MY LABOR!" Daoist Chu shouted as blood dripped down his eyes and ears.
It was clear that using the array was highly taxing on the man.
All those who saw Daoist Chu's Grand Qi Annihilating Talisman array were left astounded.
Even Lin Mu couldn't help but marvel at it.
"It's power is almost at the Peak of the Immortal Realm, reaching the Transcendent level." Lin Mu assessed. 'When did he prepare this?' he wondered.
But he couldn't afford to think much about it as he had to focus on the fight again.
His other companions also activated their strongest skills without caring for how much Qi they would need to expend.
Crown Princess Shang threw out seeds after seeds as if she were planting an entire forest and poured out half of her Qi stores in them.
"Shang Imperial Art: Blooming Forest!" She chanted as the seeds all sprouted, rapidly turning into a massive forest.
The roots of the trees grew towards the ocean, greedily sucking up the water and nutrients while this trunks reached for the skies. Trees that were over five kilometer tall each grew within a handful of minutes, as they extended their branches leaves to create a defensive fortress for everyone.
"I'll help you!" Ziran assisted the Crown Princess, providing her with Wood elemental Qi so that the skill could be sustained for long term.
He didn't have any large scale skills like others, so this was the best way he could help.
But nothing could compare to what Lady Kang was about to do.
