Chapter 1494 Dark Waters Spread...
Standing on top of the small floating island that had what little was left of the ancient tower on top of it, Chu Yang was about to look around for other floating islands outside of the one belonging to the ancient city ruins on the other side of the Dead Spirit Canyon-
Crack~
When a cracking sound suddenly echoed out from beneath him. Alerting him to the fact that the small floating island had begun to show signs of breaking apart.
Though surprising, it wasn't that unexpected considering that most of the ancient tower had already been destroyed and fallen into the Dead Spirit Canyon since his last visit to the secret realm.
The shocking thing came when he looked down towards the ground again and discovered that the ground that should have been beneath him had already been flooded by the dark waters of the Dead Spirit Canyon.
Not only that, but in the short time it had taken him to ascend into the sky, the dark waters of the Dead Spirit Canyon had already spread all the way the desert that was barely visible in the distance at this point in time. Meaning that his original plan of jumping down after a quick look around was no longer viable, as he would end up in the middle of the dark waters with several days of travel before, he could reach the desert.
Not to mention, he could clearly see that the boundaries of the dark waters were still expanding. Slowly encroaching into the desert and flooding it as well.
By the time he got to the desert, it would most likely already have been flooded. Making it even more difficult for him to try and figure out what direction to move in to reach the forest with the gate out of the secret realm, as he couldn't see the forest from where he was at the moment and would have to pretty much blindly guess the direction if he got to the desert and it had changed compared to the last time he had made his way through it. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Craaaack~!
However, as he heard the sound of the small island beneath his feet breaking apart even further, as part of the small island directly broke off and fell into the waters below, he understood that he wouldn't have much of a choice in another few minutes.
How in the world did the dark water end up flooding the place so fast in the first place? Are the ancient ruins ascending towards the sky perhaps a trigger for this? Did they serve some kind of function in suppressing the dark waters of the Dead Spirit Canyon?
Frowning to himself as he thought about this while looking down at the dark waters below him with a somewhat helpless expression on his face, Chu Yang decided to take what little time he had left before plummeting into the dark waters to look around for any other ancient ruins that had similarly ascended into the sky and turned into small floating islands-
"Huh? So... So many of them..."
Whoosh-!
For this reason, after ensuring that he could walk on the barely visible bridge of light, he didn't waste any time as he rushed off in the direction of the small tower island that it was connected to. Understanding that staying any longer on his own collapsing island would be nothing more than a death sentence.
Not to mention, he also feared staying too long might result in the bridge connecting the two floating islands disappearing, something that would completely cut off this path of escape and seal him to a fate of having to find a way out by navigating the dark waters and having to inevitably dive into said black waters in an attempt to find the gate leading out of the secret realm, something he felt was nothing short of a death sentence after feeling the countless terrifying energies that emerged from below him as the dark waters began to occupy more of the secret realm.
Thump-!
Only when he found himself on the other side of the barely visible bridge that seemed to have been made out of light, did he feel a sense of relief washing over him as if he had just survived a life and death battle.
Even more so when he saw the bridge he had been on top of start disintegrating silently without a word before disappearing a few seconds later.
Turning and looking back in the direction of the small island he had been standing on only a few seconds earlier, he quickly discovered why, as the small island had already reduced in size by half and begun plummeting towards the dark waters below-
SPLAAAASH-!
CHOMP-!
However, instead of the expected crash into the water that he had expected to see, a giant mouth suddenly emerged from the dark waters and swallowed the remaining bit of the tower and small island plummeting towards the dark waters before slowly retreating back beneath the surface. Returning the dark waters to their original state like nothing had happened.
"At least Dao Seed Realm..." Muttering this to himself as he finished watching what had just happened, Chu Yang could not help feeling a shiver run down his spine. Understanding that he would have likely ended up dead if he had decided to stay back at the floating island and tried to traverse the dark waters in search of the gate leading out of the secret realm.
At the very least, he is safe on top of the floating island for now.
More importantly, this floating island also seemed to be connected to other floating islands, but for now, he didn't intend to go over and see them, as the most important thing was to first explore the tower on this new floating island.
After all, it was in a far better state than the broken one he had been to before and could still have some treasures or other valuable things inside of it.
