Chapter 1274: Chapter 603: Mourner
If the “Mourner” knows his “ti” and “space,” can he find his “coordinate” in the endless layers?!
[When the Black Moon withers, the Mourner returns from the endless deep sea.]
He shivered, if the “Mourner” is that strange unit from the distant black ocean depths calling to him, does their return signify a… world-level disaster?
“Is it deceiving , trying to obtain the ‘left side’ of the real world from ?”
Lin Yi dared not be careless and slowly fabricated a ssage: “It should be… the year X999.”
The year X999 is said to be the true start of the Grey Mist Invasion; he’s vouching for a past established fact, which should be fine, right?
[The year X999… then the ‘school area’ you ntioned, where is it?] the “Mourner” slowly asked. Its tone beca calm and gentle, like the intimacy between old friends, filled with a seductive flavor.
“In Xiaoriji… you might not even know this country,” Lin Yi said slowly.
Xiaoriji was destroyed by the “Snake Nest” in the year X999, and he’s using a place that has already been destroyed to vouch, he really is a genius.
[I see… X999… Xiaoriji… school…] the “Mourner” slowly said, [I will co to find you… wait for , Lin Yi… I’m already… impatient…]
The “Mourner” is clearly just a crystal skeleton, but at this mont, Lin Yi distinctly felt its bones shaking with a “rustle, rustle, rustle” sound, and the golden light in its eye sockets flickered, filled with an ominous and bizarre flavor.
It laughed softly, causing the entire wooden ship’s cabin to shake and tremble continuously. The already decaying wooden planks could not withstand the burden and shattered one after another.
With the damage to the planks, the light outside grew brighter…
But as the decaying planks crumbled, he gradually discovered the light source outside the cabin… it was actually coming from a giant eye!
Outside this sunken ship, a terrifying giant creature beyond words was coiled around. While he was communicating with the “Mourner,” that deep-sea giant creature had been watching him through the gaps in the rotten ship cabin planks!
The light in the cabin was emitted by that deep-sea giant creature’s eye in the cold sea!
“Glug glug… glug glug…”
The waves in the sea flowed through the rotten ship cabin, slicing through Lin Yi’s will like blades, nearly suffocating him.
In a daze, he saw through the gradually brightening light, the root of the “Mourner’s” chains—grasped in a skeletal hand of stark white in a dense, impenetrable darkness corner!
That skeleton, even to death, clutched the “Mourner” tightly!
The skeleton’s body bore traces of a tattered dark green robe, identical to the ragged cloak previously draped on the “Mourner.”
In other words, the cloak draped on the “Mourner” could very likely have peeled off the owner of this skeleton!
“It’s not the ‘Mourner’ at all! The real ‘Mourner’ has long been dead! This is a soul born after death… or is it a forbidden existence, always confined here?!”
“Glug glug… glug glug…”
Outside the wooden ship cabin, the deep-sea giant creature’s eyeball rotated slowly, slowly, and fixed its gaze on Lin Yi.
At this mont, Lin Yi essentially did not exist, yet he clearly felt himself being targeted!
Targeted by that deep-sea giant creature!
His will shook violently, like a wooden house during an earthquake, about to shatter at any mont.
But at the crucial mont, he felt the surrounding light fade again…
His will left the layer, sinking once more into the endless waters of the black ocean.
[You are right… a real lie only needs to mix one or two falsehoods into a complete truth to be effective…]
[X999… Xiaoriji… school area…]
[Don’t overdo it…]
[Let the ‘Snake Nest’ probe a little…]
Not knowing who it was conversing with, the deep-sea giant creature did not respond at all. It just calmly floated in the cold dark sea as always, continuing to release its ripples…
“Glug glug… glug glug…”
…
Lin Yi’s will floated continuously in the black seawater. He initially wanted to look at ti.
He knew that as long as he wanted, he would certainly be able to see ti.
But he was very grateful he did not check the ti.
Others wouldn’t notice his watch, but a presence like the “Mourner” in the layers would definitely not miss it. Once he checked the ti, the “Mourner” would certainly notice his anomaly.
Then what might happen would be hard to say.
He continued sinking… while he tried to sense his bone fragnts.
He tapped into his perception.
His bone fragnts seed to be undergoing so kind of change, continuously absorbing sothing in the seawater. The fibrous tissues increased in amount, and from a distance, felt like a clogged drain brimming with disgusting hair and greyish fibers…
Each of his bone fragnts was undergoing this transformation. He couldn’t discern whether his bone fragnts were absorbing the fibrous, bizarre substances or if these strange things were progressively adhering to his bone fragnts.
“Can you co back a little…?”
He had such a thought, and surprisingly, the nearest bone fragnt gently oscillated.
“Huh? It actually worked?”
Lin Yi was initially delighted, the ability to control indicated the possibility of reassembling the Bone Golden Body.
Then, however, he felt a chill, because he discovered a certain lack of control over the bone fragnts!
It seed that not every bone fragnt was entirely under his control.
A portion of them was already in a numb state.
“This is bad…” There’s no ti to dwell on the “Mourner” affair, Lin Yi realized the fibrous absorption was not driven by his bone fragnts but rather these bizarre things were approaching of their own accord.
For recovery, he had to first clear out these fibrous, hair-like substances!
Thinking of this, Lin Yi decided not to procrastinate and took imdiate action.
Since he couldn’t decide whether to sink or float in the black ocean, at least he had to safeguard his Bone Golden Body, right?
After all, his foundational strength couldn’t be lost, the ancestral thods couldn’t change!
So he began attempting to gather back the bone fragnts using his will, but after trying, he realized his will was insufficient to accomplish this. He could sense the bone fragnts but could not control them.
The root of the problem was that the fibrous substances were too bizarre, covering the surface of his bone fragnts like a mbrane, creating a blocking effect against his core will.
“I have to find a way… to clear those fibers, or I’ll never be able to reassemble the Bone Golden Body!”
But this wasn’t sothing easily resolved, Lin Yi attempted for a long ti yet couldn’t inflict any substantial harm to the fibrous substances with his will.
Just as he was almost at his wit’s end, he suddenly thought of sothing, had a flash of inspiration, and first turned his perception towards his left arm bone fragnt.
On his left arm bone, the little girl’s golden Secret Mark was imprinted!
Even though the golden Secret Mark had collapsed with the shattering of the Bone Golden Body, he still unfolded a summoning through so recent fragnts.
“This is it, let’s see if this works!” he shouted lowly, “Co!!”
