"If I refuse, you'll kill me?"
Grave Fiend looked pale. He could clearly feel a chill rising in his heart.
It was an unprecedented sense of oppression.
That oppression came from locking eyes with Deep Sea.
That blurry shadow merely watched him calmly and coldly, yet a bone-chilling killing intent crossed the vast, distant Mental World and descended upon him.
He knew Deep Sea had not lied to him.
"The torrent of the times will not stop because of a grain of sand standing in its way. I advise you not to make a foolish choice."
Deep Sea said softly, "Even if you die, I still have other ways to accomplish this... The only reason I haven't killed you outright is because that isn't the optimal solution."
That was also why he was willing to speak with Grave Fiend.
"Now it's time for you to make your choice."
Deep Sea left the chance to answer to Grave Fiend.
In truth—
Grave Fiend no longer had a choice.
Boom!
A violent crash suddenly soared into the sky. The stone stele carried by the Black Snow Mountain Giant began to tremble violently.
"What's going on?"
Silver Fox frowned. The sense of foreboding in his heart had reached its peak.
The shadows hanging over the Calamity Barrier suddenly began to ripple with dense radiance.
Countless Bone Winged Beings circled beneath the dome of the sky. They shrieked and roared, their Mental Seas covered by an invisible connection.
Silver Fox felt a hazy illusion arise within him.
He felt as though he stood within an enormous Mental Network, countless tiny, feeble streams of mental force spreading outward with the Black Snow Mountain Giant at their center.
And the transcendent beings continuously descending around this land became nodes weaving that great net.
No.
