Chapter 718

The Might of the Calamity of Mockery

Brand's face was as pale as paper!

In his pupils, the "human" walking out from the Red Paper eye of the storm was terrifyingly reflected... Although it possessed the outline of a human, it had no skin, nor did it have facial features. The naked eye couldn't even distinguish whether it was three-dimensional, like a pitch-black shadow that had stood up from the ground.

Brand felt the World-Ending aura on the other party's body. Although he had already guessed something in his heart, he still couldn't understand it... Fear made him continuously retreat, and the sky-high scarlet paper sheets reflected his face blood-red.

"You... what... are you??"

On the pitch-black face of that "human" figure, a pair of scarlet pupils slowly opened, like smiling crescent moons, staring at Brand in front of it.

It slowly stepped forward.

As it left the Red Paper, that sky-filling eye of the storm gradually gathered in its palms;

As if paper sheets without thickness stacked layer by layer, it ultimately turned into a Great Red Paper Umbrella. It gently rested it on its shoulder, opening it up in the black and white world, like a bright flower.

Having experienced the siege of the Hall Masters, and the Alchemy Array being damaged and causing backlash, Brand's Spiritual Power had long hit rock bottom. He didn't have the slightest intention of clashing head-on with this monster, decisively turning his head and retreating behind him!

The "human" holding the red umbrella didn't chase after him, just unhurriedly walking forward...

In the blink of an eye, the two separated by a distance of several kilometers!

The black and white world of ruins retreated before Brand's eyes. He turned his head and looked back, and that bizarre Red Paper Umbrella had already disappeared at the end of the horizon, and his hanging heart was finally put down...

At this time, he astonishingly discovered that the originally black and white world was actually gradually beginning to show color.

A smear of bizarre scarlet rose from the earth beneath his feet, flowing silently towards the sky like paint. The earth was stained red, and the sky followed closely behind. As that scarlet paint covered heaven and earth, Brand couldn't even distinguish for a moment whether he was in the sky or on the ground.

Brand's eyes turned red following the world's reflection, and his consciousness also gradually became blurry...

Brand suddenly felt his figure become light and agile. With a light leap, it was as if he could fly hundreds of miles. But because the red had obscured everything around him, including the buildings, ruins, and corpses, he fundamentally didn't have anything that could serve as a reference...

He felt that flying so fast, he should have already escaped the scope of the Main City, perhaps even going beyond the Red Dust Domain.

But why was everything around him still red?

Brand didn't understand, or he could no longer think. He just continued his fleeing movements, fleeing frantically in the red world...

A hundred miles, a thousand miles, ten thousand miles... Time and space gradually disappeared around Brand. Disappearing along with it were his Rationality and consciousness. He was like a puppet that lost its support, running endlessly in this red world.

...

Rustle— Rustle—

The handle of the red Paper Umbrella rested on the "human" figure's shoulder. With casual fingertip twirls, like playing with it when bored, he spun it on his shoulder...

And if someone were to look closely at this moment, they would be able to see that on the edge of the spinning Paper Umbrella, a flat human figure that looked like it was painted on was running rapidly like a hamster in a cage, but no matter how hard he tried, he could only stay on one corner of the umbrella surface, ridiculous and sluggish.

The edge of the umbrella spun, and he ran, like an interesting dynamic pattern trapped on the umbrella surface, never stopping;

That was Brand,

Or rather... it was his soul.

Woo woo woo—

The whimpering cold wind swirled above the ruins.

In the empty street, the "human" figure just played with the red umbrella like this, casually stepping over Brand's corpse.

That was a fragmented corpse. Brand's face still retained the decisiveness of turning his head to flee, but half of his body had already broken down into Red Paper, torn to shreds all over the ground... Fresh blood soaked into the black earth, spreading silently to the surroundings like paint.

The instant Brand decided to turn his head and flee, he was already dead.

The "human" figure didn't cast another glance at Brand, but slowly raised the edge of the umbrella. A pair of crescent-like scarlet eyes landed on the nearly rampaging Dust Dragon outside the sky.

Ever since this "human" figure descended, the Dust Dragon seemed to have gone mad. Its massive skeletal double wings directly tore apart the dimension where the Red Dust was located. A hideous crack visibly pierced through heaven and earth, and an endless hurricane swept towards the "human" figure through the crack!

As this hurricane brushed past, the order of the material world seemed to be completely thrown into chaos;

Gravity was inverted in the wind. All the giant boulders, corpses, and buildings in the ruins suddenly fell towards the sky, as if the end of the world had descended!

The "human" figure also rose along with it, but it merely gently turned the direction of the Red Paper Umbrella, and its entire person was like a light butterfly, stepping through the air in this inverted world.

The hurricane wind tunnel swirled in the dimensional rift. In the long and narrow ravine of chaos and disorder, a "human" figure and a giant dragon were rapidly approaching.

At the same time,

The "human" figure holding the Paper Umbrella seemed to have sensed something and turned to look behind it;

In the inverted and shattered world, a figure enveloped in the Aura of the ancient Way of the Soldier God was trampling the crushed stones in the air at an astonishing speed, flying over like a flashing black lightning bolt!

"Calamity of 'Mockery', Heaven and Earth shall execute you together!"

A thunderous loud bang echoed in the dimensional rift. A monstrous killing intent almost condensed into substance, surging over!

Even though this Killing Intent was strong, it wasn't at its peak state. Compared to the Calamity of Mockery and Cessation Calamity at this moment, it was still far lacking. But the Aura of the Way of the Soldier God winding around the Killing Intent was like that giant sword towering over heaven and earth in the Ancient Vault of the Military Path, inherently possessing the power of suppression against the Aura of Calamities.

The "human" figure glanced at him. One hand rested on the Paper Umbrella, while the fingertips of the other hand slid to the left in front of it, as if dragging some invisible thing...

"!rehtegot uoy etucexe llahs htraE dna nevaeH ,'yrekcoM' fo ytimalaC"

The monstrous Killing Intent rolled back into the black shadow's body like it was being played in reverse. Those imposing words were also swallowed back into his stomach one by one, and then crashed heavily onto the earth!

Boom—!

The earth trembled, and dust flew up.

The "human" figure withdrew its gaze. That Paper Umbrella figure in the black and white world suddenly flickered and distorted like a glitch, and in the next moment, it disappeared into the wind tunnel of the dimensional rift.

When it appeared once more, it was already placed in the Gray World.

"That is..."

The sudden appearance of that Great Red Paper Umbrella out of thin air instantly attracted Su Zhiwei's attention. She turned her head in astonishment, only to see that "human" figure standing above the Dust Dragon, slowly raising its foot...

And forcefully stomping down!
