Chapter 260 The Supreme Being
"Star Performance!"
This was his first time trying the [Star Evolution] trait since advancing to Sequence 4.
Now is the perfect time to test its quality.
As a slight burning sensation arose between his brows, the scene before him rippled like water, and countless fragmented images flashed rapidly through his consciousness.
The desert itself was nothing unusual, except for its indescribable stillness and seemingly eternal heat.
but……
"Something's not right..." he muttered to himself.
"Stop the car, Luo, activate the psionic barrier!" Xu Si's voice came through the walkie-talkie to everyone's ears.
The convoy traveling through the desert came to an abrupt stop.
"What's wrong, Brother Dao?" Xiao Luo responded using telepathic communication, sounding nervous.
"Don't speak... Something is 'descending'." Xu Si's voice was unusually solemn.
However, even faster than him was the crow, which crashed down from the sky as if it were being chased by a predator once again.
The moment the convoy stopped, Xu Si used Star Guide to move a sand dune, burying the entire convoy.
"Red!" Fu Xiaojian's voice came through the walkie-talkie, filled with an indescribable urgency.
"System, purify the human presence of the convoy."
Purification Points: -200, Remaining Purification Points: 29300
[Time Limit: 10 minutes]
The convoy fell into a deathly silence.
If he could, he would definitely want to open the 'Starry Sky'.
However, his current condition does not allow it. Although he can drive for a short while, it's almost the same as not driving at all.
Buried beneath the sand dunes, all sounds from the convoy vanished, and even breathing was deliberately suppressed to the lowest possible level.
Everyone looked at the darkness coming from the roof of the car.
However, the oxygen in the car wouldn't last them long, so they could only hope that the guy hadn't come specifically for them.
"Sizzle..."
Just as everyone was on edge, a piercing scream came from the sky.
Xu Si seemed to hear the chirping of cicadas in his ears, but with a different kind of mental pressure.
Liu Ting, Xiao Wu, and other ordinary people screamed in agony and then fainted.
Under Xu Si's life force perception, a huge, dark purple phantom in the sky was pulled out by an unknown entity.
To be precise, it should be described as tearing.
At this moment, time seemed to be gripped tightly by that invisible giant hand.
Xu Si's star pulse suddenly contracted to its limit, fearing that he would be targeted if he was not careful.
However, the horrifying images forcibly imprinted on the star veins were clearly visible.
The sky, which had been hanging low and churning with an eerie crimson hue, was pierced by a shrill cry that defied description by any earthly syllable, a cry somewhere between the chirping of cicadas and the collapse of laws.
Like a layer of inferior oil paint canvas, it was forcibly torn off from the "nested" space by a tyrannical and unreasonable force!
The dark purple "sky curtain" is, in other words, the manifestation of the vast and illusory true form of the [Viphan].
Like a startled jellyfish, it convulsed and contracted wildly, trying to escape.
Countless twisted tentacles, seemingly made of despair and spatial folds, materialized from the void, struggling desperately and lashing at the non-existent barrier, producing crackling sounds that froze the soul.
Then, it was easily "torn" out like duct tape.
It wasn't forced out, nor was it driven out; rather, it was like a child swatting a beetle out of a sand pile, with a casual yet absolutely controlling cruelty.
A "hand," or rather a "mouth," whose shape cannot be described, whose size cannot be defined, and whose distance cannot be perceived, seemingly composed of pure "rules" and "appetite."
Exploring from a higher, more ethereal dimension, it has no color, no substance, yet it casts a shadow more despairing than the deepest night in the consciousness of all who witness it (even if they cannot actually "see" it).
"How dare you! Playing tricks on my turf! You dare break His agreement? Even if I devour you, He won't blame me!"
That thought was cold, ancient, and carried a kind of indifference that looked down upon ants.
It explodes directly in the core of the minds of all living beings, regardless of their hierarchy or any defenses.
It wasn't a sound, it was a declaration, it was a judgment.
The next moment, the devouring occurred.
There was no earth-shattering explosion, no dazzling showdown.
That "hand of rules" gently "grips" or "inhales".
【Vifu】That which can cover a whole world, weave deadly illusions, and trap countless living beings in despair.
It didn't even manage a decent wail before it melted, collapsed, and vanished completely.
The sky, the true, blood-red sky that belonged to this desert, carrying the meaning of scorching heat and death, reappeared.
The dark purple that filled the sky seemed to have never existed.
The Level 5 anomaly that had just filled them with despair was easily wiped away by a higher-level being, leaving not even a trace.
The convoy was deathly silent.
Everyone froze in their seats, their hands that had just been gripping the steering wheel, and their muscles tensed in preparation for an attack.
My mind was completely blank.
"Heh...heh..."
After a long, long time, heavy breathing sounds rose one after another under the deathly silence of the yellow sand, first a few scattered breaths, then a continuous sound.
Xu Si seemed to have thought of something and quickly moved the sand dune above his head away.
They're clearly suffocating from lack of oxygen.
When the convoy finally saw the light of day again, Jiao Jiao covered her mouth tightly, her big eyes filled with tears, but she even forgot to cry.
"Ahem, everyone... report the situation." Fu Xiaojian's voice came through the walkie-talkie, hoarse and unlike his own, each word sounding as if it had been ground out on sandpaper.
"The warriors... are all present." Yang Fan's voice trembled, and the silver spear in his hand made him feel completely unsafe.
He had thought that after awakening his sequence, he would be able to control his own destiny, but now he realized how insignificant he was.
"Doubao fainted, but he's alright!" Shao Bing's voice was relatively steady.
"The pickup truck is normal."
"Everyone... is normal too." Yao Yao also fainted, but she was also fine.
……
Yi Yi's tiny hands tightly gripped a strand of Xu Si's red hair, her wings folded, and her body trembled slightly.
That higher level of "deterrence," even if it was just an aftershock, made her feel a fear that stemmed from her very survival instincts.
Xu Si reached out and gently touched her cold wings with his fingertips, conveying a silent comfort.
Everyone unconsciously looked up at the sky, even though the sky had returned to normal.
But the fear stemming from their biological instincts still left them feeling uneasy.
The feeling is like a mayfly seeing the blue sky, or a firefly illuminating the vast world; without seeing the grandeur, one does not feel insignificant.
For the first time, Xu Si had a deep doubt about humanity. If the earth were now covered with such beings, what hope would humanity have of turning the tide?
The slight satisfaction and complacency that came with being promoted to Sequence 4 have all vanished in an instant.
