Chapter 387: Remnants of the Past

~7 min read 1,227 words

Childbirth warning!

Klein suddenly felt his Causality constantly shifting toward his stomach, where a faint heartbeat was sounding slightly, gradually intensifying, even threatening to replace him!

His life, his Spirituality, and even his Fate were shifting toward the owner of that heartbeat; it was about to replace Klein to become the "Fool," to become "Saint John"!

Klein had never seen such a thing, so he steeled his heart and pulled at all the Causality Threads on his body.

Under these circumstances, a certain Causality Thread that was gradually turning rose-colored appeared before Klein's eyes; Klein decisively grabbed it and severed it directly, cutting off the Causality Thread between himself and that heartbeat.

With the Causality Thread severed, in terms of Fate and reality, the two no longer had any connection.

The Sea God Scepter in Klein's hand swung once more, but this time it was not forward, but toward himself; he thrust the Sea God Scepter into his own stomach.

Boom!

A ball of Lightning exploded; Klein's spirit body manifested a hundred meters away. He had destroyed the strongest Angel Paper Figurine he was inhabiting and had also used a Paper Figurine Substitute once.

It was just that the childbirth warning had already left a great shadow in Klein's heart.

He did not even dare to wait for Mr. Azik here.

"I have to go!" Klein looked at his second Causality Thread that held a glimmer of survival; it pointed toward the depths of the Underworld.

"Go!" Klein made his decision, and then he took out his personal item—the "Dream" card.

After receiving the warning from Bishop Chumen, he had been carrying this card with him.

Mr. Azik's pupils constricted, and patches of snake feathers even appeared on his cheeks.

This "Death Consul" was stunned for a moment; how could the person holding his token encounter danger in the Underworld? This was unreasonable!

The expression of Azik Aegis suddenly became grave; he opened a Bronze Gate directly beside him, intending to teleport directly to Klein's side.

But he failed.

The next instant, Klein's body began to change; Angel wings that seemed substantial unfolded behind his back, and the formal attire on Klein's body also turned into a dark robe adorned with stars.

"He is no longer here." Stepping into the invisible Barrier, Azik only saw a scene of devastation, saw the land that had been ravaged by Lightning.

This time, he directly integrated the "Dream" card into his spirit body.

"There is something strange!" Azik Aegis locked onto the strange location at the first opportunity and shifted directly to the corresponding position.

The Underworld Authority he controlled fed back the anomaly to him immediately.

"Go!" After integrating the "Dream" card, Klein only felt his control over the Causality Threads becoming increasingly clear, flying rapidly within the tornado.

"Klein?" Azik Aegis finally received Klein's distress signal.

"Open!" He reached out and pressed into that invisible Barrier; the death aura of the Underworld turned into a solid in his hand, and after three breaths, it eroded the invisible Barrier away completely.

"Sua? 'Mother Tree of Desire'!"

On the other side, Klein, who was somewhat exhausted in Spirituality from being chased by the Undead Army behind him, raised the Sea God Scepter in his hand once again.

He did not dare to delay any longer and directly used Shanjian to enter the Underworld.

This was the I-don't-know-how-many-th time he had used Lightning Storm, but that mutated version of the Undead Army seemed to possess the physique of a "Living Corpse" and the recovery ability of a "Werewolf" individually, and supported by high-sequence power, they were getting closer and closer to him.

"Corroded Undead Army?" Azik learned of what had happened here and chased in the direction of Klein's flight.

This was the "Dream Angel" recorded in the Evernight Church.

Childbirth warning!

Klein did not know if the "Dream" card could resist the power of childbirth, but he really did not dare to take the risk.

"A chance of survival! A chance of survival!" Klein's Spirituality suddenly jumped; that Causality Thread pointing toward survival suddenly became vivid.

Klein reached out to grasp this thread and pulled it fiercely.

The dark canopy formed by the death aura seemed to be lifted, revealing the traces that had been covered for thousands of years.

That was a line, a line composed of Dream Phosphor, stretching straight across the entire Underworld.

Roar!

Upon seeing this line, the Dream Phosphor within Klein's body echoed from afar, appearing even more powerful, but the Undead Army behind him also went mad at this moment.

Klein looked back subconsciously, only to see that the Undead Army of unknown numbers suddenly aggregated into one, transforming into a strange tree composed of countless withered bones!

A rose suddenly bloomed on the strange tree, its colors vivid, unique in this Underworld with its dark background.

"Sherlock Moriarty!" Klein felt as if he had heard his alias on this strange tree.

At this moment, Klein's spirit body suddenly trembled, and it was cut off from the "Dream" card within his body, becoming ordinary, no longer possessing a certain quality.

The Causality Threads on his body were also being usurped by that strange tree!

"No!" Klein suddenly felt that his second child was about to be born.

He could only grasp the sole chance of survival before his eyes.

That thread formed by Dream Phosphor.

It looked very much like the Causality Threads in Klein's eyes, so Klein touched it using the same method.

Hum!

Klein broke free from the restraints; his perspective also rose sharply when he touched this line, and he saw the true appearance of this line reflected in his eyes.

It was no line at all; it was a hollow pillar of light, only it was so far from Klein that it had been mistaken for a line.

And just after Klein touched it, the Dream Phosphor of the same origin also responded to him.

A ray of light flew out from that pillar of light, flying straight toward Klein.

Klein's spirit body suddenly stiffened, as if locked by something, unable to move.

And this feeling was also quite familiar; after all, he had experienced it more than once.

"Spear of Destiny!"

Klein cried out involuntarily; that pillar of light was the trace left behind by the Spear of Destiny as it swept across the Underworld, which was why it was hollow, and why it pierced through the entire Underworld!

Chi!

That streak of Dream Phosphor pierced through his body like a true Spear of Destiny, and wisps of rose-colored light seeped out from him, only to be annihilated by the Dream Phosphor.

This was a hidden danger left behind from just giving birth... Klein's spirit body turned cold; if not for this streak of Dream Phosphor, even if he could escape this time, he would still be subjected to Corruption later!

"Ah!"

Seeing the annihilated rose-colored aura, the strange tree shrieked violently, and countless rose-colored tentacles coiled toward Klein.

If he were to be caught, it would truly be miserable!

Klein was just about to prepare to trigger that pillar of light once more, to draw in more Dream Phosphor.

But at this moment, a cold yet familiar voice rang out in Klein's ear.

"Death!"

This was the judgment of the "Death Consul," the fury of the entire Underworld!
