Chapter 1670 Song of Calamity
Chapter 1670 Song of Calamity
Dum! Dum! Dum!
The Jai Empire rumbled. "Are rank 2s fighting?" Eshala muttered with a confused expression.
"There are no traces of aura explosions." Varian said and expanded his perception with a solemn expression. It'd have been fine if he didn't do it. But when he sensed what's actually happening, his heart sank and he nearly yelled in shock.
The curvature of space-time in Jai Empire began to shake, as if it was beaten by a drum stick. Dum! Dum! Dum!
The space-time curvature which held an entire galaxy began to sway to the whims of something. Something didn't even appear.
Dum!
From outer space to inner space, from inner space to core space, everything began to shake. Independent spaces turned unstable. Alternate time fields went shaky. Blackholes' gravity faltered.
Dum!
The whole of space-time was thrown into a turmoil.
Varian's face paled. "Sh*t! Let's get out of here first!"
The formation was withdrawn right away and the power of space-time enveloped the two. It was much harder to teleport in this situation than any other time. If Varian hadn't broken into the threshold of strength that he did, he'd have been helpless in the situation, unable to teleport despite the ability to do so.
Eshala poured out all her power into him without hesitation. Even then, their teleportations didn't work well. The space-time was so twisted that they ended up circling around the same regions more than a couple times.
"Argh, damn it!"
Varian used the shards to reinforce the teleportation. Dum!
The shards helped in the chaotic space-time and the wrong teleportations drastically decreased. In a few blinks, the two reached the boundary of the alliance. Varian's tense heart relaxed as did Eshala's.
But that's only for a moment. The rumbling grew louder and louder, changing its tone from earlier.
Dum! The center of Jai Empire, the supreme palace, glowed with a brilliant light. The purest strands of divinity emerged from the castle and started to coalesce into a form.
Eshala spat out blood without warning and Varian blanked out for a moment. Dum!
The rumbling of the empire was like a song of something that couldn't be expressed in mere words. It was more primitive, more raw and more real.
The song stirred emotions in their hearts they didn't want to face. "They should be able to help!" Varian took out Aphosis' badge and contacted the rulers of the alliance without delay. Almost instantly, five auras rose from the alliance.
Keman and Yami. Aphosis, Equilius and Aridam.
Dum! Dum! Dum!
"Almost there!"
Even though nothing seemed to change, not even the concentratin of aura, Varian felt incredibly strained, as if even existence was exhausting.
His clothes were drenched in his sweat and his heart thrashed as if it was about to break out. Dum!
His instincts screamed, begged and prayed like never before. What's happening? What's about to happen? He had no idea!
But his soul screamed as if it realized before he could.
Dum! Dum!
The brilliant light of the stars across the alliance and the empire began to dim. Aura itself started to stagnate. Dum!
Varian and Eshala entered the Genesis Empire.
At that moment, a phantom was formed at the top of the supreme palace. Dum!
Keman and Yami along with the Nexus trio appeared in front of them with a solemn expression.
Dum...
The song ended, sighing of what's about to come.
Eshala's breath stopped as despair filled her face. Turning to Varian, she begged. "Take care of her."
Boom!
A humanoid phantom appeared soundlessly in Genesis Empire. Aphosis' always stoic expression collapsed into one of panic and he stood in front of Varian. "Take him and leave!" Keman and Yami grabbed Varian before he could utter a word and took him into a far off space. Their main bodies remained there along with Aphosis, Equilius and Aridam.
The phantom, glowing in a brilliant silver light, snapped his fingers.
A light flashed and Varian felt something in the world being cut off.
He didn't even know what it was but Aphosis' badge vanished. And so did the connection Varian had with him.
Before he could even think any further, the avatars of Keman and Yami threw something into his body before throwing him into a separate space.
Varian couldn't bear their speed of travel and fainted as he crashed into the land. The next moment, the phantom appeared outside the region, carrying a dying Eshala in his hand. Keman and Yami had pale faces and their bodies trembled as the unseen injuries piled up. Equiluis and Aridam stood together, their faces ashen. Everyone prepared for a terrifying battle. The phantom stared at the forbidden region of life and death. Any form of entry to rank 2s was forbidden. That meant even if he created a rank 1 phantom, he couldn't enter. "Bugs." A cold voice rang across the alliance and every non-divine ranker fainted right away. The phantom clenched his fist and Eshala's soul dissipated without resistance.
Without any warning, the phantom raised his hand. Everyone at the scene prepared for the fight. But the phantom merely swung his palm.
The milky way split into two. The terrible void that opened up due to the destruction of space-time fabric began to rampage the galaxy.
Several satellite galaxies were swallowed into the void and were destroyed.
The age-old formations of milky way kicked into action, stabilizing the broken halves and slowly pulling them together.
The phantom raised his palm again and the hearts of the ruler sank.
The galaxy wouldn't be able to take on one more hit.
But instead of slicing his palm, the phantom clenched it into a fist.
A barrier formed around the forbidden region of life and death.
"Touch it if you want to die."
When Keman and Yami wanted to act together, the phantom vanished, as if it never existed. But the glowing red barrier around the region was evidence enough.
Almost at the same time, a voice rang in God's Eye.
"It's about time."
