Chapter 257: Chapter Thirty-Two: The Collision of Worlds
In the surface layer of the Dream World, Hall, with brown hair and golden eyes, holding a pure black great sword, leaned against a light purple Moon Tree with his eyes closed, resting his mind.
He had actually noticed the sudden appearance of the foreigner earlier, but chose not to interfere with it in any way.
Because the content of the trial was not his concern, he was only responsible for preventing external disturbances and ensuring that no accidents or casualties befell the Trialists.
Just as Anvis and the others were answering the final question, a small Dream World shrouded in grey mist suddenly appeared from the void of space outside the world.
It was not until the approaching small blurry world from the depths of the Dream Space was re seconds away that Hall finally noticed it, and his expression suddenly changed drastically.
His hands grasped the hilt of his sword, and he imdiately raised his blade, prepared to alter its trajectory by creating a super large-scale spatial deflection, thus forcibly preventing it from colliding with the Trial World.
But as he was about to make his slash, a phantom of an hourglass suddenly flashed through the void. A pitch-black domain appeared out of nowhere, swiftly engulfing him within it.
Ninth Rank Rule Magic—[Ti Freeze]
This was a one-ti-use Mysterious Object made with the precious Ti Sand, a special material ford with great difficulty by Ninth Rank Limit powerhouses using Rule Power, capable of maintaining this ti-stopped domain for one minute.
However, Hall was an old Ninth Rank after all. After various resistances weakened the effect, the duration the domain could bind him was reduced by nine-tenths, which is to say, around six seconds.
But, there were less than three seconds left until the collision of the two worlds.
Without Hall’s obstruction, the grey-mist-shrouded small world continued on its original path, with the massive weight of a whole world, silently bearing down on the Trial World ahead.
From the outer layer of the world, the scene resembled two massive, hard yet fragile, hollow glass spheres slowly colliding in slow motion.
Accompanied by a blaze of white light more dazzling than the sun, all sounds fell silent.
At the point of impact, the flickering crystal walls on the outer layer instantly fragnted. The material of the Dream Realm from the world’s interior scattered from the cracks, drifting into the dark and serene depths of the Dream Space, like a colorful, shimring nebula.
This sight of astonishingly rapid material turbulence, when scaled up to the size of the entire world, seed eerily slow and quiet, like smoke curling around you.
And within the world itself, the most direct sight was:
The sky was falling—
Like spider webs, pitch-black cracks tore across the entire sky. Whether it was the faux purple full moon or the black hole-like stars, they were all swallowed by the dark fissures.
The land and forests began to drift upwards, the ocean’s waters spiraled into a huge waterspout as if whirled by a tornado. Nurous panicked mid and low-rank Dream Creatures were swept up, dragged into those abyss-like cracks.
At the mont of collision, all feedback images from the external world dimd down instantly.
The many mbers of the True Knowledge Society looked at the walls with so confusion, unsure of what had happened.
Within Moon Castle, Duke Carrot’s complexion changed, and he imdiately prepared to open the spatial channel once more to inquire about the situation. What faced him this ti, however, was the violent spatiotemporal turbulence caused by the shattering of the Dream World.
This caused the spatial channel’s exit point to shift as it opened, not appearing beside Anvis but falling into so unknown part of the deep Dream World.
An anxious Duke Carrot hurriedly repositioned, while using his own Rule Power to forcibly stabilize the channel.
However, the newly reopened channel dissipated just as it was about to activate once more.
The spatial coordinates on the other end, at this mont, had vanished without a trace.
.….….
In front of Anvis and the others, the teleportation room underwent a violent shaking. The Array, which had already lit up and was about to teleport, suddenly dimd, its light becoming extrely unstable.
“What happened!?”
Alisa instinctively tightened her grip on the hilt of her sword, asking with so tension through the ntal link.
“This must be the disaster Anvis ntioned. Can we stabilize it?”
“I’m trying.”
Casu’s ntal fluctuations were still calm; at this mont, he turned towards Saphia.
The latter was already controlling the Magic Cube to emit inscriptions that rged into the Array’s light, urgently maintaining the stable operation of the Array to avoid its collapse or loss of control, which could engulf everyone in spatial torrents.
But for her, not yet at Third Rank, to urgently maintain the normal operation of this special Teleportation Array that spans worlds, it was clear that she was sowhat overstrained.
Anvis imdiately did one thing: he activated the eggshell and used its power to completely envelop the Array.
Almost the instant the white crystal Protective Shield covered the Array, a pitch-black crack split open from the void, cleaving onto the Shield’s surface like a sword’s edge.
“Crack—”
The sound of a real sword hacking into the Shield rang out, accompanied by an unpleasant friction noise, as the crack was temporarily held back by the defensive film.
But upon closer inspection, one could still see that the pitch-black crack hadn’t truly stopped; it was extending into the Shield at a slow pace.
And at this rate, the ti for the Shield to be penetrated and collapse would not exceed two seconds.
Afterwards, Anvis glanced at the flickering Teleportation Array and the urgently-maintaining Saphia.
Due to the severe space-ti turbulence, the Teleportation Array, although fully charged, could not initiate the teleportation due to severe interference with its positioning.
As an almost Seventh Rank Transformation Master Mage, he could see that with Saphia’s current strength, there was absolutely no way to stabilize the operation of the Array before it collapsed.
Relying on his powerful spiritual power, Anvis, to Saphia’s astonished gaze, quickly embedded multiple inscriptions into the Array and forcibly modified parts of the Magic Circuit, directly changing the Array’s target destination.
If fixed-point teleportation was not possible, then random teleportation would do, as long as they could return to Yar Continent.
“Are we going to die?”
In the last mont, clad in robes whiter than snow, she looked around at the drastic change in the environnt, her expression one of surprise.
“You might….”
Before he finished speaking, Anvis forcefully activated the Array, teleporting the five of them away in an instant.
The next mont, a huge pitch-black crack violently opened, completely engulfing the pale Protective Shield and the entire Array within—
…….
“Ugh….”
Due to the intense disruption of the space-ti turbulence, the teleportation process was quite uncomfortable. Even with Anvis’s current Constitution, he felt slightly unwell.
Touching his forehead slightly, Anvis slowly looked around.
He was currently located in a rock canyon, surrounded by so fresh bones, as well as brownish-yellow fur, feces, and huge paw prints shed by a Magic Beast, seemingly near the den of a large magic creature.
After careful observation, Anvis realized it was likely a Fourth Rank Earth Roaring Tiger.
However, that tiger had been startled by the huge space fluctuations when he appeared and had already fled.
