Chapter 468 – The Great Dragon Formed By Souls of Nothingness

The shadow of the black mountain seemed as if it held up the entirety of the heavens . Even though it was an endless distance away, one could still clearly feel the horrifying oppressive feeling that it emanated . This was a type of despair and dread that a person would only feel when the rivers and mountains were breaking and the world was collapsing .

At this time, atop the shadow of the mountain, two giant beasts were engaged in slaughter with each other . Their angry roars were like 3000 thunderbolts striking down in unison . Rocks were sent flying about, filling the skies like stars at night . Every drop of blood that splashed out was like a blood lake, smashing into the earth .

Frightened by the terrifying struggle occurring between the two great beasts, the monster beasts that lived in this mountain range began to flee in all directions . Even if they were much smaller, the weakest of these monster beasts were still tens of thousands of feet tall .

Suddenly, with a heaven-shaking rumble, the shadow of the black mountain broke apart and countless fleeing monster beasts were smashed into goo by the titanic rocks that came falling down .

At this moment, one could only see the shadow of that black mountain turn its head and open its jaws wide, swallowing up the two giant beasts that were fighting each other .

Chewing sounds came out, as loud as mountains falling into the sea . Rivers of blood flowed down the sides of its mouth . It was like a red torrent falling down from the heavens, billowing as it struck the ground and creating a sea of blood in the blink of an eye .

The black mountain shadow lay back down on the ground once more . With another heaven-shaking rumble, the entire world quaked and countless terrifying canyons tore through the earth in all directions . But soon, the torn earth began to restore itself to how it was in the beginning . The black mountain shadow rapidly secreted a layer of mucus that covered its body . When this mucus came into contact with the air, it rapidly hardened into a thick layer of rock .

Strong winds swept out through countless ancient trees, even uprooting them before they were smashed apart by the wind into countless bits and pieces that sprinkled down onto the surface of the black mountain shadow . Then, these bits and pieces of ancient trees took root at a speed visible to the naked eye . They began to germinate, becoming thick and strong saplings that sucked up nutrients from the earth and wildly grew .

Perhaps only several days of time would be needed for this area to return to how it was before .

…

The galloping river was like a moving sea . On the banks of it were terrifying willow trees that were hundreds of thousands of feet tall and radiated a divine light . By relying on their impossibly thick roots, they drilled deep and firm into the earth, fixing themselves stably onto the banks of the river .

But today, these incomparably terrifying willows were easily crushed and broken apart by the waves of water . They were pulled out from the river banks, forming giant pits in the ground that were hundreds of miles deep . In the blink of an eye, these massive pits were filled back up with water .

A giant golden fish was swimming through the river . Its size was astonishingly large, so large that the water couldn’t fully submerge its body . On its back were fins that seemed cast from pure gold . Beneath the light, they reflected millions of rays of sparkling divine light . Every time the large fish swung its body around, it would cause the river to emit groans of pain, followed by waves that were capable of destroying all .

The path ahead of the river suddenly narrowed, blocking the path of the big fish . A roar came from the water as a horrifying vortex appeared from thin air, sucking out all of the river water .

The galloping river was unexpectedly severed at this moment, exposing what lay beneath the surface of the water . The giant golden fish’s head was actually that of a dignified and majestic dragon . Its golden eyes were ice cold and shined with infinite honor and glory . It opened its mouth and all of the river water it sucked in was blown out in a column of water . The earth shook and the narrow river passage was blown open .

The giant golden fish swam underwater and continued forward, completely disregarding the river that had just been torn open . Endless river water rushed out, flooding the region for a thousand miles around .

…

After being in this different world for half a day, Qin Yu’s outlook on life was thoroughly torn down and renewed . This was simply a Land of Divinity and Demons that was enlarged a thousand times, ten thousand times over . What was enlarged was everything within this world . Have you ever seen ants that were dozens of feet tall, frogs that were thousands of feet tall, or wild boars that were hundreds of thousands of feet tall? These beasts were everywhere here .

Qin Yu even saw a terrifying giant ape who had three heads on its shoulders and stepped over mountain ranges . The top of its head reached through the skies and the upper half of its body was wreathed in clouds . Every breath that this giant ape took had the potential to stir up wind and thunder!

Fortunately for Qin Yu, his tiny divine sense was like a grain of sand in a vast desert . In addition, if he sensed the situation was worsening, he would flee for his life . Only by doing this did he manage to survive until now . But, the problem right now was that he couldn’t rely on his continued luck . If even a single accident were to occur, he would be thrust beyond any hope of redemption . This accident might be the breath of a great beast, or even an ant that suddenly decided it wanted to hunt him down .

In short, Qin Yu didn’t want to stay in this world for even a second longer than necessary . This sort of environment where the shadow of death loomed around every corner was simply oppressive enough to leave one gasping in despair .

But he still hadn’t found the trail of a soul of nothingness . This left Qin Yu feeling restless . This was because according to the Monster Raising Mystic Art, souls of nothingness were like rivers; they ran through every corner of this world . As long as his luck wasn’t too bad he would be able to find one quickly .

Souls of nothingness had no offensive capabilities . As long as he managed to approach one he would be able to capture it . Then, he could stimulate the strength of the soul leading altar and depart from this world .

Half a day passed . Relying on the speed of his divine sense, Qin Yu was able to cover an inconceivably large region and yet he wasn’t able to find a soul of nothingness .

Something clearly wasn’t right .

“Just what happened?” Qin Yu muttered beneath his breath, anxiousness rising in his eyes .

The strength of the soul leading altar could only be maintained for one day . In other words, if he couldn’t find a soul of nothingness within another half day, he could only leave . And once he left, the aura of his divine sense would be marked by the will of this different world . Then, if he tried to come here again, before his divine sense even descended he would be eliminated by the world’s will .

This was why it was said that a person only had one chance to enter this different world…if he failed, he would no longer be able to complete the process of the Soul Summoning Bell recognizing a master .

Rumble rumble –

A terrifying sound spread out . Qin Yu’s complexion changed and his divine sense immediately hurtled away, avoiding the eagle that flew up above . It had pure white feathers and its two wings blocked out the skies . Perhaps the great roc bird spoken about in the legends referred to such a creature .

Only after fleeing far, far away did Qin Yu’s divine sense come to a stop . He bitterly smiled . This terrifying giant eagle might not care about his existence at all, but the gales stirred up by the flapping of its wings were enough to easily tear apart his divine sense .

This wasn’t some mighty supernatural art . No, it was simply the winds stirred up by the movement of the eagle’s wings . This was because once strength surpassed a certain limit, it brought about a qualitative change that could also destroy a person’s divine sense!

Suddenly, a shrill cry resounded from afar . Qin Yu looked up and his pupils shrank, endless shock filling his eyes . He saw that incomparably large, roc-like white eagle he just fled from suddenly be pierced through with a sharp spike . It flapped its wings in a panic but it wasn’t able to escape the imprisonment of that spike .

With a wail, that giant white eagle was pulled to the ground . There was a thunderous heaven-shaking crash from afar, followed by sounds of feeding that were as loud as mountains and rivers crashing into each other .

Qin Yu paled . Although he hadn’t been in this different world for long, he still had some experience . That giant white eagle had a high degree of cultivation and even in this terrifying different world it could still be considered an extremely horrifying existence . But it actually wasn’t able to resist at all as it was pierced through by a spike and then swallowed up…according to what Qin Yu knew of this world so far, the more tyrannical a life form was, the larger it was .

To easily kill the giant white eagle…Qin Yu’s divine sense shivered and a sense of palpable fear gushed out from his heart . He wanted to flee, but at this moment a boundless aura erupted from somewhere deep below the earth . Beneath this aura, his divine sense froze and he couldn’t even think . Following that, the earth beneath his feet broke apart and a black mountain peak rose from the ground, lifting Qin Yu into the skies .

Hum –

A halo of light appeared, blocking out the wind from the outside . The terrifying oppression that Qin Yu felt vanished along with it . With his ability to move restored, Qin Yu looked around . His mouth subconsciously fell open and thunderous rumbles filled his mind, causing his vision to flash black .

Endless blackness spread out in all directions . The black color was uneven and bumpy, like hills rising up every so often . However, the true appearance of these hills were that they were scales stacked up upon each other . What he was stood on now was actually the back of an incomparably large spider . It had awoken from a deep slumber and its eight massive legs tore apart the earth beneath it .

Qin Yu had no idea whether there was a larger life form in this different world . But, the spider below him was the most terrifying existence he had encountered thus far . Even that three-headed giant ape and the golden fish shuttling through the river were nothing but small and humble little brothers before this mind-boggling spider . With a single stab of a leg, this spider could pierce through ten three-headed apes or golden fishes .

Its eyes were dense and numerous, shining with the cold luster of intelligence . They were like stars neatly arranged in rows . Suddenly, the eyes swiveled about and the spider began to move . It left behind bottomless holes in the ground as it traversed the land, speeding away at an astonishing pace .

Whether it was grand and palatial mountain ranges or raging rivers that seemed to flow forever, any geographic structure flashed by rapidly beneath its body, unable to prevent its movement in the least .

Countless formidable monster beasts ran away into the distance in a flustered panic . There was even a giant pangolin that was millions of feet long which screamed out loud and drilled deep into the earth .

But soon after that, a leg stabbed into the earth, causing a pained roar to fill the world . The pangolin that ran away was forcefully pulled out . Then, the pangolin opened its jaws to reveal rows of sharp teeth . It bit down on the spider leg . The grating sound was like stars colliding against each other . Endless plumes of radiant fire gushed out . The teeth began to break apart as the pangolin wasn’t able to cause any damage to the spider at all .

The spider pulled out its leg . Its eyes were cold and indifferent . The two sides of its mouth opened to reveal a deep and horrifying darkness that seemed to go straight into the maw of hell . With the movement of muscles, a circle of sharp teeth began to wildly spin .

The entire pangolin was swallowed up a mouthful at a time . Along with the swallowing movements, one could clearly hear the sounds of flesh and bone being twisted and broken down . It was a low and dull sound, like a hundred thousand giant drums beating in unison .

Qin Yu’s divine sense instinctually trembled . This terrifying spider’s strength simply broke through the horizon . He attempted to flee, but although the halo of light surrounding him was only a thin and light layer, its defensive strength was actually incredible . No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t shake it in the least .

His only path was to stimulate the strength of the soul leading altar and directly leave this world, otherwise there was no way for him to escape . Uncertainty flashed in his eyes and all sorts of thoughts clashed in his mind . If he left it would no longer be possible for the Soul Summoning Bell to recognize him as master .

No!

He forcefully pushed down the fear in his heart and decided to wait for an opportunity to appear . Perhaps he would soon find an opening to flee .

But, what Qin Yu didn’t know was that once the spider activated its protective abilities, it was an indication that it was about to start fighting . And if there was something that could force the spider to be so cautious, it had to be an equivalent level existence .

Two hours later, Qin Yu finally saw the spider’s opponent .

In the boundless and endless sea…this was a genuine sea, the sea of a different world . It was truly vast and limitless, like the skies above the world .

A giant purple dragon was entrenched here . Its body was so majestic and grand that even the sea couldn’t submerge it . Its ice cold eyes stared at the spider that came rumbling towards it from afar, as if it had already been waiting here for it for a long time .

Qin Yu’s eyes widened . This wasn’t because he was alarmed or afraid of the giant dragon’s aura . No, it was because he discovered that this giant purple dragon was actually composed of countless tiny organisms . Of course, these so-called ‘tiny organisms’ were all at least ten feet in size . They were like purple jellyfish with their tentacles wrapped up around each other, thus forming this giant purple dragon .

At this moment, Qin Yu finally realized why he hadn’t encountered any souls of nothingness even though he had been in this different world for half a day . It was because they were all gathered here…yes, that was right, this incomparably dignified giant purple dragon was actually composed of trillions of souls of nothingness!

Rah –

The spider sent out an enraged roar . Its billowing voice was accompanied by a visible impact that swept out in all directions . Space collapsed and the earth shook and shattered . Immense waves were suddenly stirred up in the endless sea .

The giant purple dragon’s eyes didn’t reveal any fear . It reared back its head and responded with a dragon’s roar .

The dragon’s roar was like a sword . It came falling down from the skies, separating the tumbling water and cutting straight down!
