What worries Lin Yu is that he is currently unable to ascertain the status of the system.
He didn't know whether the system was blocked by the power of the Heaven-Mending Fragment, or whether the system was unaware of the Heaven-Mending Fragment's existence and had also succumbed to this power.
During the time Lin Yu was pondering, he suddenly felt the gray-black platform beneath his feet change once again.
The once calm and still platform suddenly began to undulate, and the entire area was filled with a rumbling sound.
Meanwhile, everything in the world seemed to have changed.
The entire platform began to shake uncontrollably, but it wasn't because of the platform itself; it was because the entire earth was trembling uncontrollably!
Immediately afterwards, Lin Yu saw that similar high platforms had risen up in the area surrounding the high platform.
The platforms rose and fell, bobbing incessantly like a keyboard from a past life.
Clearly, the trembling of the earth was caused by the constant shaking of these high platforms.
The black iron chains rattled violently as they clashed together, creating a deafening sound that sent chills down one's spine.
"Click... click... click..."
It was a series of sounds that made your teeth ache.
And in mid-air, the light emitted by the fragments of the sky-mending structure still did not diminish.
All these changes are clearly the result of the fusion of the two fragments of the Heaven-Mending Patch. Even Lin Yu had never heard of or seen anything like the fusion of the two fragments.
"No wonder that fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone could unleash such immense energy, even I, the Palace Master, was able to be restrained by it." Lin Yu suddenly realized.
"So, from the very beginning, this wasn't caused by a single fragment of the Heaven-Mending Fragment, but by two fragments!"
Looking at the light in mid-air, Lin Yu was also somewhat uncertain whether the two fragments of the Heaven-Mending Piece could be successfully fused together.
Especially given that another fragment of the sky-mending piece has already developed some intelligence.
However, although the other fragment of the Heaven-Mending Piece already possessed some intelligence, the Heaven-Mending Piece in Lin Yu's hand had a much stronger overall spiritual power.
After all, Lin Yu had been using his pure spiritual energy to nurture this fragment of heaven-mending material during this period. It could be said that the increase in the fragment's strength during this short time by Lin Yu's side had already surpassed the energy gained in the previous year.
Therefore, Lin Yu felt that the fragment containing some intelligence might not be able to control the fragment in his hand; everything was uncertain.
Although the other party was solely focused on plundering and becoming the consciousness capable of dominating the fused fragments, the attributes of the two Heaven-Mending Fragments were not entirely the same!
In other words, the two are the same in their most basic aspects, but there are fundamental differences in their "superstructure".
Now, there are three possibilities for these two fragments of the sky-mending artifact.
The first, and worst, scenario is complete fusion, where the intelligent fragment of the Heaven-Mending Piece takes the lead and completely seizes the energy of the fragment in Lin Yu's hand.
However, Lin Yu believed that the two types of Heaven-Mending Fragments had fundamentally different attributes, and fusing them would not be an easy task, so the possibility of this happening was not high.
As for the second scenario, the fusion is completed, but the other fragment of the Heaven-Mending Piece will be affected by the fragment in Lin Yu's hand and lose part of its consciousness.
In this situation, Lin Yu obviously couldn't control how much consciousness the other fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone lost; he could only submit to fate.
If he's lucky, the fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone will lose its "plundering" intent, and everything will be fine. Lin Yu is confident he can take the fragment back into his hands. If he's unlucky, Lin Yu can't guarantee it.
Of course, there is a third possibility: that the two fragments of the sky-mending technique could not be fused together at all.
While Lin Yu was still pondering the ultimate fate of the two fragments, an even worse situation arose.
It was as if a sticky substance had appeared out of nowhere on the platform beneath Lin Yu, like glue, pressing Lin Yu's body tightly against it.
Originally, Lin Yu could adjust the distance between himself and the platform based on his own strength, but the appearance of the gel made it impossible for Lin Yu to do so.
His limbs were tightly bound by iron chains, and his body was pressed firmly to the platform by a gelatinous substance.
The current situation was extremely sudden and clearly took Lin Yu by surprise.
Since arriving in the fantasy world, Lin Yu has always overcome obstacles and made everything go exceptionally smoothly.
However, ever since entering this new era, everything seems to have suddenly entered a difficult mode.
Lin Yu's previously improved strength suddenly became less useful, and he was restricted multiple times.
Right now, this has become the biggest problem Lin Yu has faced since entering this fantasy world, a situation he had never anticipated.
Moreover, this situation is trending towards getting worse.
Lin Yu discovered that if he remained still, the glue-like substance would seep into the interior of the tower.
It wasn't a problem that the glue seeped in on its own, but it was still stuck to Lin Yu's body, which caused Lin Yu's body to move closer and closer to the inside of the platform.
For a moment, Lin Yu even suspected that this high platform might also possess its own intelligence and consciousness.
Was the suddenly appearing sticky substance something Gao Tai wanted to use to completely absorb Lin Yu, thus making Lin Yu's body a part of Gao Tai?
Realizing this, Lin Yu knew he couldn't just sit and wait to die, so he immediately began to struggle desperately.
However, the glue-like substance was extremely firmly attached, and Lin Yu's attempt to break free was tantamount to trying to peel off his own skin.
But Lin Yu couldn't care less about that now; he just wanted to break free of these absurd chains as quickly as possible.
Just as Lin Yu was trying to break free, the sound of flowing water came from somewhere.
Even in this panicked situation, Lin Yu's perception of his surroundings was extremely sharp. Almost the instant the sound appeared, he sensed that something was wrong with Diffan.
It's like a person in the dark. Because they can't see anything clearly, their hearing becomes exceptionally sharp, and they can easily detect the slightest sound.
Lin Yu discovered that the flowing sound he heard was not the sound of water at all, but a sound with a density greater than water, and heavier and more profound.
"What is that sound?" Lin Yu wondered.
