Chapter 504: A Broken World (6200 Supplement)

~7 min read 1,335 words

The sky was a hazy gray.

It was not that clouds were obscuring the sun and moon, but rather that it had been this way for a very long time.

"The radiance of the sun and moon has been extinguished... This dim light... seems to be emitted by glowing, suspended creatures active in the atmosphere..."

Aaron stood before a ruin, where a road sign reading 【Welcome to Romani】 could be vaguely seen.

This place should have originally been the border between Green Forest and the Romani Principality.

But at this moment, he only saw a stretch of desolation; the empty, gray earth was boundless, without even a trace of vegetation.

The original checkpoint had also turned into ruins piled high with bricks and rubble.

"Since when did the descent of Mythical Creatures from the Spirit World become so easy?"

Its thousands of arm-like leg blades writhed rapidly, kicking up a cloud of dust on the gray earth, sweeping toward Aaron like a long dragon.

Even a Mythical Creature of the Eighth Primordial Substance might not be able to withstand the combination of him and the 'Sword in the Stone'!

This was an Extraordinary Ability from the Sixth Primordial Substance of the pure 'Darkness' path—the 'Nine-Headed Evil Thing'!

The flesh-colored, thousand-handed centipede suddenly stood upright, and eyes abruptly opened in the centers of countless fair, rough, or twisted, disabled, and deformed palms.

"A true Eighth Primordial Substance creature... descending directly into the Mortal World!"

At this moment, he suddenly looked toward a certain direction on the gray plain.

Otherwise, those Epoch Lords would have long since descended into the Mortal World using stronger vessels, teaching him a lesson in minutes.

"Hiss hiss!"

"No... that's not right, its strength? Eighth Primordial Substance?"

Crack!

"This has caused the probability of those Spirit World creatures coming to the Mortal World to increase significantly, and mortals can even easily fall into the Spirit World along with their bodies?"

"Spirit World Creature?"

The reason was simple: because Aaron had stopped the 'Secret Source Power' from reshaping and drawing the worlds closer, maintaining it at the critical point where the Mortal World could barely accommodate an 'Immortal'!

The danger in this layer of history could potentially cause him to fall!

It was even possible to run into the true form of an Epoch Lord in the Mortal World!

"It is the situation I least want to encounter... but without a doubt, if I want to ascend to a true 'Immortal', I must endure such danger!"

Seeing the charging thousand-handed centipede, he revealed an indifferent expression on his face.

Motula was worthy of being the Epoch Lord of 'Mystery'; in the First History, he had quickly found the coordinate and key to the Eighth Layer of History.

According to his observations and research, the current Spirit World and Mortal World were in a state of 'twin star' spiritual entanglement.

"When the apocalypse arrives, the two broken worlds have instead intensified their fusion? Even forming a stable passage?"

And his true form could actually instantly replace any one of these nine figures.

These heads had the same face and aura as him, and they quickly separated from the torso, forming eight identical dark avatars!

But it was very unwise to expose his strength and intelligence when he was not yet familiar with this layer of history.

This was the most favorable situation for him.

Yet, this scene, which could be seen everywhere in the Eighth Layer of History, surprised Aaron greatly.

Encountering the current Aaron, there was naturally only one outcome: being driven away.

There, the void fluctuated faintly, and finally, it tore open with a boom.

"Courting death..."

Aaron was currently dressed in noble hunting attire, with the 'Sword in the Stone' hanging at his waist.

"If the Epoch Lord had used an Eighth Primordial Substance holder in the Mortal World as a vessel back then, I probably would have only had the option to run, and I might not have even been able to escape..."

"Is this the Eighth Layer of History... the arrival of the apocalypse?"

A total of nine Aarons immediately broke out from different directions.

Crack!

Amidst a teeth-aching sound, one head after another grew out from around his neck.

Aaron's expression changed immediately.

"Not only that, the intersection of two incomplete worlds will inevitably breed some even more bizarre things..."

Aaron looked at a piece of rotten bone in his hand, lost in thought.

"The Mortal World in this world..."

Aaron casually grabbed a handful of gray soil from the ground; he could not feel a shred of Vitality, yet he faintly saw some glowing, crystalline substances contained within, appearing eerie and illusory.

While crawling, its head split open, and rays of crimson light began to interfere with the void in this area, preventing prey from escaping via 'Spirit World Teleportation' or other means!

Thinking of this, Aaron twisted his neck.

It was because the strongest limit of power in the Mortal World was at the level of the 'Son of Dawn'—a 'Worldly Immortal' who walked a special path; they were still the Seventh Primordial Substance themselves, but their combat power was comparable to the Eighth Primordial Substance!

Compared to the 'Son of Dawn', even the perfect avatar of an Epoch Lord was a bit weaker.

This feeling was something he had encountered a thousand years ago: "Spirit World-ization of the Mortal World?!"

"Hiss hiss!"

It was just that... the 'key' this time was a bit special; that history-traveler had long since died, and Aaron could only take a piece of the other's bone to make up the numbers.

As the Creator behind the scenes of the world, he was the one with the most say regarding the birth of the Spirit World and the approach of the two worlds.

"But... why did the world of the Eighth Layer of History encounter an apocalypse?"

Then... their bodies melted like ink, emitting a fishy, foul odor...

A deep black hole emerged, from which rushed a centipede-like Spirit World Creature composed entirely of human bodies.

Aaron felt that this mystery could not be solved for the time being: "First... I need to find survivors!"

At this moment, that flesh-colored, giant centipede Mythical Creature also noticed Aaron.

Those countless arms formed the thousand feet of a centipede, looking exceptionally creepy...

The distance is very close, but they have not completely merged, and the connection between the two worlds is also very stable, which is why Extraordinary can dream-travel to the Spirit World through methods like entering dreams!

Some Spirit World Creatures can also descend after paying a certain price!

But after all, they are two different worlds, so Spirit World Creatures will be suppressed in the Mortal World! This is an iron law that even a Crown cannot violate!

Although the Mortal World has been nourished by Spirituality and gradually become extraordinary, giving birth to what the Hidden Realm calls "Spirit Tide Revival," this step has already stagnated after the Mortal World became able to accommodate "Worldly Immortal"...

Three Darkness avatars suddenly stopped in their tracks, and dense, crowded eyeballs began to grow all over their bodies.

Fortunately, with the full support of the Crown "Motula," and because their natures were compatible, they didn't even need to hold a large-scale Ritual to open the Gate of Multiple Histories, achieving Secrecy to the extreme!

Not only that, Motula would also use the authority of "Secrecy" to disguise the appearance of Aaron still being in the First History, buying enough time for the plan.

Aaron felt a bit of a toothache.

Every avatar of the "Nine-Headed Evil Thing" is actually equivalent to a Crown, but in front of an "Ascendant" of the Eighth Primordial Substance, it is still too weak!

The speed of the Mythical Creature thousand-handed centipede accelerated once again, its head split open, revealing countless dense, crowded teeth, as if it wanted to spew some kind of large-scale attack.

Just at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
