When the last load-bearing rock pillar in Guixu's heart broke in Crimson Gold Karma Fire, Fang Mo was stepping on the Nine Nether Floating Path paved by Nian Nu'er and sprinting towards the sea at a speed close to the limit.
What comes from under your feet is no longer a vibration, but a sense of overall collapse, like standing on the top of a tall building whose foundation is being taken away. All supporting structures have lost the meaning of existence at the same time.
"My Lord, the Third Layer structure has begun to disintegrate in a chain." Nian Nu'er's voice came from the side, and the faint blue light circulated rapidly on her body. Nine Nether Floating Path's extension speed has reached the limit of her current state. "At this speed, half a stick of incense will make it out of the sea, but the pressure wave below will catch up first."
Fang Mo did not look back. His Eye of Karma glanced down through the layer of sea water. The picture he saw made his mouth twitch slightly - the entire First Layer to Third Layer structure of Guixu Demon Abyss was collapsing inward in an almost aesthetically perfect symmetry. The embers of Crimson Gold formed hundreds of intersecting light strips between the collapsed rock walls, like a huge flower that was closing.
And at the bottom of the flower, in the deeper space exposed after the heart area completely collapsed, something was rising upwards.
Not one or two, but groups of Black Shadow.
Those Guixu Law of Disorder has suppressed the bottom existence for who knows how many thousands of years. After losing the restraint of the heart structure, it is spreading crazily towards the upper level like trapped animals whose cage door has been opened. Their sizes range from the size of a fist to dozens of feet, with various shapes. Different, the only thing they have in common is that they are covered with a turbid yellow-brown film - that is the pollution layer formed after the residual Annihilation Aura of Desolate Heaven spreads in the waters of Guixu.
Fang Mo pressed his right hand on his chest.
Deep in the palm of the hand, the Light Orb with a dark red background intertwined with yellow-brown lines is beating at an extremely regular frequency. Each beat is completely synchronized with the new Crimson Gold heart in Fang Mo's body, like a natural frequency lock between master and slave.
"Come out."
These two words are not meant for Nian Nu'er.
He slowly pulled his right hand away from his chest, and the Prison Suppressor Patterns in his palm bloomed with a two-color halo in the dark golden background light. In the center of the halo was an expanding crack, and the dark red light pouring out of the crack carried a heart-stopping sense of legal oppression.
Demon Embryo stepped out of the crack.
No, it can no longer be called Demon Embryo.
It was a body that was close to the size of an adult male. The whole body was covered with double Prison Suppressor Patterns and Five Senses with a dark gold background intertwined with tawny. Although the outline of Five Senses was still a bit blurry, the lines of the limbs had tended to an almost perfect power ratio. The dark golden light core as big as a fist in the center of the chest released stable Law Fluctuations every time it beat.
It was suspended beside Fang Mo. The pair of eye sockets made of dark golden light points were aimed at the group of Black Shadow that was coming up below. The two-color lines on the surface of the body began to flow faster at the same time.
Nian Nu'er's Nine Nether Floating Path made an overwhelmed buzzing sound at this time - the first pressure wave below caught up, and the impact force formed when the seawater backfilled the vacuum area created by the collapse tore a hole in the regular configuration of Nian Nu'er.
"My lord!"
Fang Mo's feet lost the point of contact, but his body did not fall.
Demon Embryo moved, its hands pushed downward at the same time, and the dark golden light core in the palm released a law barrier that mixed the attributes of Prison Suppressor Law and Desolate Heaven's extinction. The barrier spread out at Fang Mo's feet, replacing Nian Nu'er's damaged floating channel, and forced back the impact of the pressure wave.
Then it turned around and faced the rising Black Shadow group. There was no expression on that blurry face, but its movements were so simple that even Nian Nu'er was stunned - it pulled out a dark golden chain from the light core on its chest, in the shape of a chain. It is exactly the same as the Prison Suppressor Chains summoned by Fang Mo when using Record of Punishing Crimes, except that the size is several times larger, the color is darker, and the unique yellow-brown dying light of Desolate Heaven seeps between the links.
The chain fell down.
It is not a precise point attack, but a large-scale surface crushing. The dark golden chain links spread out like a giant python in the sea water. When sweeping over the rising Black Shadow group, every being touched by the chain stopped at the moment of contact. All movement stopped - he was not killed, but was forced to press the pause button by Divine Rank of Prison Suppressor Law, and then began to dissolve at an extremely fast speed under the Eroding of the annihilation attribute.
Fang Mo stood on the law platform paved by Demon Embryo, looking at this scene, he clenched his fist with his right hand.
"Okay." He said in a low voice, with a kind of satisfaction in his voice when inspecting the product, "It's not in vain."
Nian Nu'er regained his balance behind him, his blue pupils reflected the image of Demon Embryo crushing the Black Shadow group, "My Lord, its law output has stabilized at the Half-step Dharma Aspect level, and the attribute of annihilation has natural restraint on these bottom-level Old Gods remnants, and Guixu's things cannot stop it at all."
"Of course it can't be stopped." Fang Mo raised his head and looked towards the sea, Crimson Gold's veins and lines were beating slightly on the skin on the side of his neck, "Desolate Heaven was raised in Guixu For hundreds of millions of years, these low-level bastards have been suppressed by the breath of Desolate Heaven. Now I use the essence of Desolate Heaven to suppress them, which is equivalent to replacing them with Steward."
His feet took a step on the platform of law, and Ember Emotion Soaring Step's Crimson Gold lotus bloomed in the sea water.
"Never mind, let it clean itself up, let's go out first."
Fang Mo no longer looked down. After receiving his will, Demon Embryo separated half of the chains and continued to crush the Black Shadow group. The other half retracted and formed a shield wall to follow behind Fang Mo, acting as a mobile defensive barrier.
The three of them went all the way up. Every time they passed through the collapse zone, Fang Mo could feel the surrounding water pressure changing. The water flow generated when the seawater backfilled the vacuum became more and more turbulent. It almost completely tore Nine Nether Floating Path of Nian Nu'er into pieces several times, but Demon Embryo's law barrier accurately appeared at the weakest position every time, diverting the impact force.
The light gradually expanded from a white spot the size of a grain of rice above the head to a round spot the size of a palm, then to the size of a human head, and then to the entire field of vision.
The moment Fang Mo rushed out of the sea, it brought out a water column up to a hundred feet high.
The water column reflects the afterglow of Crimson Gold in the sunlight, which is the refraction effect produced by the residual light of Ember Vein Burning Emotion law on his body surface and the deep essence of Guixu mixed in the sea water. From a distance, it looks like a Crimson Gold God of War breaking out of the water Abyss from the bottom of the sea.
Then, the sea began to rise.
It was not caused by Fang Mo. It was the chain reaction caused by the collapse of Guixu's heart that finally reached the sea surface. The sea level of the entire East Sea began to rise at a slow but irreversible speed within a hundred miles centered on Fang Mo. Seawater gathered in this area from all sides, forming a huge annular tsunami that was spreading to the periphery.
Fang Mo is suspended above the sea, and Demon Embryo is standing beside him. The double lines of dark gold and tawny are particularly eye-catching in the sunlight. The beating frequency of the light core in the chest is completely synchronized with Fang Mo's heart. The invisible law resonance between the two is as close as an umbilical cord.
Nian Nu'er landed on the other side of him, and Nine Nether Black Water formed a blue rosette at her feet. She looked around, and a strange color flashed across her blue pupils.
"My lord, East Sea is not at peace."
Fang Mo followed her line of sight.
Something is moving on the periphery of the circular tsunami.
A lot of things.
Tens of feet below the sea surface, densely packed figures are rapidly gathering in this area. Their sizes range from a few feet to hundreds of feet. Their scales occasionally flash in the light refracted by the sea water, revealing their respective positions - East Sea, Demon Race, and a large number of the East Sea Demon Race.
They are not attacking, but running away.
Escape from the direction Guixu.
The Law Fluctuations caused by the collapse of Guixu's heart is not only a tsunami on the physical level, but something deeper is spreading on the seabed. The aftermath of those Law of Disorder is a disaster for the creatures on the seabed. Driven by instinct, they frantically stay away from the source of the fluctuations.
But when they escaped near the suspended position of Fang Mo, all movements stopped.
It's not the kind of stop that is forced to stop by Prison Suppressor Law - it's an active stop driven by fear at an instinctive level, just like a group of wild beasts fleeing from a wildfire and suddenly discovering a more terrifying existence squatting on the road to escape.
Fang Mo looked down at the figures, large and small, under the sea. They stopped a hundred feet away around him. Some of the larger monsters had begun to sink slowly, expressing some kind of primitive surrender by exposing their abdomens upwards.
The light core of Demon Embryo's chest suddenly accelerated its beating frequency at this moment. Its dark golden light-spotted eye sockets turned to the distant sea, and Fang Mo followed its line of sight.
At the farthest end of the tsunami's spread, where the sea level and the sky meet, a light is slowly rising from under the water.
It is not natural light, but an emerald green light beam with an ancient atmosphere, penetrating from the bottom of the sea to the sky. At the top of the light beam, the outline of an upside-down island is gradually solidifying in the uncertain light and shadow.
Nian Nu'er's pupils suddenly shrank into two needles when he saw the light beam.
"What is that?" Fang Mo asked.
"Things that shouldn't appear." Nian Nu'er's voice changed, and the blue pupils were changing rapidly, as if a certain memory from hundreds of millions of years ago was being forcibly activated, "Guixu's heart is the base of the entire East Sea law structure. After it collapsed, the space interlayer pressed by it also cracked."
She pointed her finger towards the solidifying upside-down island, her fingertips trembling.
"That island does not belong to this sea."
Fang Mo stared at the emerald green light pillar and the outline of the island emerging in it. Record of Punishing Crimes automatically opened a new page in his Sea of Consciousness, and dark gold text quickly appeared on the page.
He only saw the last line of words and closed Record of Punishing Crimes.
"Prison Suppressor·Record of Punishing Crimes·Judgment: The unknown space mezzanine is opened, detected--"
The corners of Fang Mo's mouth curved in an arc, and Crimson Gold's flame flickered on and off between his breaths.
The outline of the island is becoming clearer and clearer, and Fang Mo can even see the misty fairy spirit floating on the edge of the island, as well as the emerald-colored palace standing on the highest point of the island.
