Mystical Journey

A white ray of light burst to full bloom above White Crab Island.

It was a white light that not everybody could see. It was a huge ripple triggered by the Soul Energy Force.

With White Crab Island as the median point and at a range of tens nautical miles was a hazy view as if a white mist had spread out.

Snap!!

In the vast clear skies, a lightning struck by.

Sea God crashed its head onto White Crab Island. However, its massive collision force was stopped by an unsighted resistance several hundred meters from the island.

The large force counteracted against a boundless barrier before Sea God. They were in a standstill.

“How??!!”

Sea God roared violently. Its giant black tail was wagging so ferociously that it swept up ripples of waves towards both sides behind it.

Many of the warships were rocking from the man-made tidal waves. They rushed to distance themselves.

“Idiot.” Right in the center of White Crab Island, the white mist evaporated, revealing a piece of vast white open space. The surface of the open space cracked open into a pitch dark hole and a voice was heard coming from it.

A giant monster almost ten meters tall slowly erected from the hole.

The monster was brown all over as though it was wearing a leather dress but with closer inspection, it was actually naked and its body naturally grew brown flesh. Its head was triangular in shape as if it was wearing a hat and bore three eyes but no mouth. Its trap was on its abdomens and blisters densely formed above and below the cavity. Yellow pus was oozing out of the blisters.

“Why do you want to protect this filthy world?” The monster flew up and looked at Sea God at a stalemate with the barrier.

“Filthy?” Sea God retreated back. “In the eyes of the filthy, there is only filth in the world. In the eyes of the kind, they will see the world as kind. The problem is yourself.”

It took one swirl with its tail.

“Fossil Sand!”

At the sound of its voice, Sea God’s muscles began to expand rapidly. Lines of a Red Cross stretched out from his back to the front of its head.

Sea God’s already massive body expanded to at least twice its original size.

Large amounts of seawater were pushed away from both sides. Just the movement of its body caused the surge of a huge wave.

Boom!!!

Sea God violently, crazily charged at the barrier. It opened its mouth wide, chomping at the barrier with its razor-sharp teeth.

With a rustle, the barrier could not withstand such strong force and broke. Sea God’s massive figure took flight and was smacking down onto White Crab island. Its large body was almost as large as White Crab Island, forming a black shade blocking the sunlight and descending from the sky.

The triangular-headed monster lifted its head. Compared to Sea God’s massive body, it was as tiny as a sesame seed.

“The world is born again from destruction.” It vaulted up and both arms projected sharp stakes. It began to twirl with a high velocity, forming a spinning grey shadow in midair.

Swish!

It suddenly paused before raising the sharp stakes with its arms and charging at the large black figure in the sky.

Very minimal sound could be heard.

The monster soared to the sky and the moment it was about to collide with Sea God, no noise was made or could be heard. All the sounds were covered up by the roaring of the waves and Sea God.

Slosh!

A round of black ripples burst open between heaven and earth, oscillating around in a frenzy. Everything the ripples touched became a black and white world.

Anywhere the black light swept past would turn dim. The black ball of light extended in range of several thousand meters, wrapping all the warships around before shrinking.

Everything resumed to its peacefulness.

“Hahahaha!!!”

A roar of laughter rung Sea God and the monster met.

Boom boom boom!!

The warships around started to fire cannons. They were all aimed at White Crab Island at both the monster and Sea God but it could be seen that a majority of the cannons were directed towards Sea God and not the monster, which was rather strange.

Shells after shells exploded on Sea God’s back, bursting into red flames and blazing black smoke.

The transmigrators on board who were wearing items that could prevent manipulation of heart and mind instantly exploded. Apart from a minority of transmigrators and experts with strong Willpower, the remaining soldiers and officers on the ships were all controlled and treated Sea God as their biggest enemy and therefore, opened fire.

Rounds of cannons were fired nonstop. The soldiers numbingly closed their eyes to execute the firing the same as they would with their eyes opened.

Clang!!

A white line far from where the sea and sky met shot over.

An old man with white hair and a beard held a silvery-white long sword and crossed the ocean from afar. The sea water beneath his feet was a shallow stream as it never went past his ankles.

His blade drew a white line as it stabbed at the monster beneath Sea God.

Swoosh!

A white imprint made its mark on the monster.

Not wasting a breath, the old man moved at lightning speed. Striding a few thousand meters with just a few steps and crashed into the monster like an arrow. Both parties were in close combat.

Sea God hung in the air and opened its mouth to take a bite down.

Kaboom!!

Breaking noises were heard as the boundless barrier keeping it out broke once again. Sea God’s massive body came crashing down with no resistance.

A cloud of dirt and fog towered to the sky. Dirt, trees, broken rocks as well as pieces of buildings, everything under Sea God was crushed to nothingness.

Bang!

The warships around on the ocean started to blow up in flames. The scarlet red flames rocketed. The remaining warships were caught in the fire after the first report of cannon ignition.

No one was bothered by the flames of the explosions. Even though there was a fire, the soldiers that were controlled by illusions still operated the cannons at Sea God with their eyes closed.

A few of the transmigrators jumped ship but most of them took off with the warship’s escape bot.

The battle situation here was beyond anyone’s expectation.

It was only one White Crab Island, yet, it was hard to infiltrate a White Crab headquarter. Not only did the people that entered lost their lives, those on the outside were somehow controlled and firing cannons at their own people.

Amidst the raging waves, a few figures were tossed high and far. It was chaos on White Crab Island. Broken pieces of unknown substances scattered around.

Dirt and seawater splattered so high above that it wasn’t clear what they actually contained.

Yuria had two people pressed under his arm as he rode a wave out of the water surface and climbed up a warship.

Cough cough!

He coughed with intensity, spurting sea water as he bent down.

“It’s been tough for you.” Vulture No. 1 and Red Nation’s Prince whom he rescued were at the verge of death but maintained their consciousness.

The warships rocked violently and pushed far in the ocean by the waves.

Roar!!

Sea God’s enormous howl echoed large ripples on the ocean.

Yuria carried himself emotionless as he leaped into the waters and fished up a figure. It was Parakeet who was with him.

Whizz…

A fighter plane descended from the sky and two missiles were launched, tailing a white smoke as he shot to the core of White Crab Island, detonating at the monster below Sea God.

Yuria lifted his head to look at the fighter plane.

“There are still people that are conscious,” he muttered.

He then shifted his head to where the battle was most intense. Waves of tens of meters whirled and stirred everything outwards. Nothing could be seen standing on such a warship.

Yuria saw this horrifying end-of-the-world scene.

“The parent virus is in Zhi Jinqin, which is your sister’s hands.” Red Nation’s Prince smiled coldly. “What do you plan to do?” He wasn’t kind to Yuria who just rescued him.

“You just came like this? No backup plans?” Yuria’s voice clearly traveled to their ears despite the waves.

“Sea God was our biggest trump card, we thought it could be done with ease but now it seems…” Vulture No. 1 frowned and looked around. Waves were whirling to the point where the ships could not be sighted. It was unknown how many ships had sunk or remained from that pounding surf.

“Our final plan is if we come up empty or are left fruitless attack in half an hour, the outside world will use the final strategy nuclear weapon to destroy everything here,” Vulture No. 1 continued, answering Yuria’s question.

“It’s useless.” Red Nation’s Prince calmed down. All the bones in his body were broken. He lost his arms and his legs were twisted beyond recognition. The wounds on his body were soaked to paleness in sea water.

“Strategic arms with GPS would still be affected by Zhi Jinqin.”

“Then what do we do now?” Vulture No. 1 asked. “What about the world?”

Yuria was silent for a moment. Standing on a heavily rocking ship, the three were lost for words. They had given it their all up to this point yet they reached the limit of their resources. Whatever that could be used had been used.

“I’ll go.” Yuria was expressionless as he turned and leaped into the waters without waiting for the two to respond.

“Is it right to force a young man like this?” Red Nation’s Prince smirked at Vulture No. 1.

“Force?” No. 1’s face was cold as ice. “No one forced him. Everything is predestined.”

“How??!!”

Suddenly, Sea God let out a painful screech. Its large body was tossed and smashed on a nearby ocean surface.

Wham!

Countless waves surged as Sea God laid in a pool of blood and hissed in pain. There were spider-web scars all over its body and there wasn’t one spot that was intact on its gigantic black build.

On a large wound, there were even yellow blisters on it.

“Retreat!!” On Sea God’s final struggle, it turned and wiggled its tail away. Rumbling like the sound of thunder, its large body sprung away.

It just pulled away like that!?

Vulture No. 1 and Red Nation’s Prince both stood in shock as they watched Sea God make its escape.

The other old man’s whereabouts were unknown but it bodes ill rather than well.

Hiss…

The sky burst open a black and white ring. This ring was several thousand meters in circumference before swiftly shrinking back to the monster hanging on top of White Crab Island.

It grew a long brown tail, wagging it slowly like a lizard as though the center of gravity of the world was concentrated on its body.

“Watch,” the monster said with a sharp shriek.

“Selfishness, hatred, anger, pain… This sort of world should not exist in the first place.”

It extended its arm and in its palm was a large yellow blister. The blister burst open and out came tree roots growing in a ball.

The round ball twirled on its own as the roots within intertwined as complicated and sophisticated as a metal instrument.

Ding…

A beautiful harp sound was heard from the twirling of the ball.

“The last world…” The monster’s voice went from shrieking to a hoary man’s.

“The last anger.”

It lifted the ball up in a position of giving an offering.
