Chapter 4190 Caught Off Guard
Every stage on the Other Shore exerted great pressure on those who entered. Most warriors would suffer serious discomfort when they reached a higher stage.
Even Zen felt the pressure quite vividly when he came to a new stage.
But after being in the stage for a long time, he would get used to the pressure and no longer felt it.
Zen had imagined the pressure here would be unbearable, considering it was the core area of the highest stage of the Other Shore.
But when he arrived, he was surprised to find he did not feel anything.
What he saw before him was a vast, rolling grassland and a small lake in the distance. A breeze blew past and the water shimmered.
This didn't seem like the Other Shore but more like an ordinary world.
Soon though, Zen discovered that something was not quite right.
The Primeval Lord of Heaven, the real Fuxi and the others beside him all became stiff, as if someone had cast a spell on them. The Monkey Spirit King and the Monkey Masters not far away were dead still too.
"Primeval Lord of Heaven?
Master Fuxi?
What's going on?"
Zen's face was flushed with astonishment and concern.
It was impossible to freeze everyone, including the Monkey Masters and the Monkey Spirit King, by any sort of spatial means, no matter how powerful it was.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Just then, black cracks began splitting in the distance, extending towards Zen from afar, crawling along like numerous reptiles
and swallowing everything in their way. The lake and the grassland disappeared rapidly, in a seemingly impossible engulfment of the environment.
"Be mindful, Zen. This is the Space Devouring Technique!" The voice of the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord rang out in Zen's mind.
"The Space Devouring Technique has trapped them all?" asked Zen disbelieving.
"No, it's you who have been trapped," revealed the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord. "What you see are all illusions, and the Space Devouring Technique will tear you and these illusions to pieces."
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The black cracks surged closer and closer and had soon spread to the human heroes.
It was just as the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord had said; the Monkey Spirit King, the Monkey Masters and the human heroes were in fact not real. The ground bene
lderly Lord sighed in Zen's mind.
The Monkey Masters on the other side were faring much better than the human heroes.
As Treacherous Beings, they were capable of withstanding this onslaught. Although the Space Devouring Technique had cut them to pieces as well, they could be restored in the blink of an eye.
Meanwhile, the Monkey Spirit King stood motionless, his eyes focused dead ahead. No one knew what he was looking at.
A few moments later, the awful scene of misery finally came to an end.
Buzz!
The shadow of Snake Goddess flickered, and the once blurry line slowly became clear, returning to her body.
She had pushed her bloodline power to the limit to deal with the Space Devouring Technique. Her face was now deadly pale, and when she saw the blood stains on the ground, any color left in her face drained as well.
Splash!
Beside the Snake Goddess, a black and white Eight Diagrams disk rotated slowly. Fuxi's figure soon emerged from it. He was calm as he faced the Space Devouring Technique, but noticing the miserable state of the human heroes caused his face to darken.
Zhurong, Gonggong, and Eastern Emperor Taiyi then also recovered their forms.
Da! Da!
The emerald green fragments scattered all over the ground close by began moving. They continued shuffling and gathering together, forming into the Wing King, but much smaller in size.
"Only a few survived..."
The Primeval Lord of Heaven stepped out from a snow-white light, his demeanor gloomy and heartbroken.
Even Zen felt the pressure quite vividly when he came to a new stage.
