Too late?
The old hag's words caused the protectors' hearts to completely sink.
They already started to smile as if they just solved a massive problem. After all, the appearance of the Divine Years Tortoise suppressed the expansion of the Endless Sea. The traitors were not able to do anything much either. Even though the Unrivaled was yet to make an appearance, the Nanan and the others were still in the Door of Wonder. The moment they came, the battle was basically won.
However, the old hag's words definitely dampened their spirits.
"Let me deal with you!"
Old Dragon decided to attack himself. He appeared in front of the old hag as his tremendous power emanated without any reservation. He decided to suppress the old hag, not allowing her to do anything.
The only variable at that moment was the old hag.
"Roar!" Yet, the old hag let out a roar that shook the skies, as if mocking them as her body suddenly exploded!
Boom!
No one expected that the massive beast actually contained endless sea water inside. With its explosion, the sea started to surge, forcing the Endless Sea to expand another hundred miles!
That hundred miles caused the Endless Sea to expand to precisely where the Golden Lake was!
In the air, the old hag's final cry could be heard, "Welcome back, my master!"
"O-oh no!" Everyone widened their eyes as their heads went numb.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"This old hag was actually a part of the Endless Sea!" The drunkard's expression sank and turned dark. He fought against the old hag for countless years. He thought that she was a cultivator that was corrupted by the gray mist, but he never expected that she was actually a part of the Endless Sea itself. No wonder she never died as long as the Endless Sea existed.
She hid it for so long all for the sake of that final moment.
The Golden Lake was suddenly filled up by the Endless Sea. After that, it linked with the altar.
Buzz!
The heavens started to shake, as Wisdom itself trembled. It was as if they could not withstand the existence that was about to arrive.
The Endless sea and the beasts that were within the sea frantically charged into the altar. At that moment, the altar became the center of a storm. It was like a bottomless pit, absorbing the Endless Sea within.
That seawater was enough to cover up over half of the Origins Realm. It was hard to even fathom how much the volume was. Yet, it was constantly being absorbed into the altar. The terrifying vortex transcended the limits of the world. In just a flash, it was completely absorbed.
Everyone stared right at the altar, and could not help but shudder at the sight.
The altar already disappeared, and the figure of a person took its place.
That person was incredibly large and seemed like the center of the world. The person exuded waves of shocking power.
Crack!
Without him even moving, the space around him started to crack, unable to withstand the pressure. The skies suddenly turned dark as lightning moved into the sky like dragons, covering the whole sky, and falling around that person.
The heavens themselves were furious!
"H-h-he's Madman Chu?!"
"How's this possible? Madman Chu really revived."
"Everyone, look, the Door of Wonder is disappearing."
Everyone looked up to notice that the Door of Wonder's light, which was at the highest point, was already dimming. It started to blur, and the cultivators within were sent out one by one.
Madman Chu's appearance threw Wisdom into chaos. Even the Door of Wonder could not be maintained anymore.
"Huh, why were we sent out?" Dragin was a bit confused. She was on the forty-fifth step and worked hard to break through. Yet, the Door of Wonder suddenly disappeared.
Nanan had a stern look on her face as she quickly fixed her gaze on Madman Chu. Her face sank as she said, "That person is very dangerous… Incredibly so!"
"What happened? This pressure… Did Madman Chu really come back?" Qin Mnayun looked at that person in alarm. Her hands held her guqin as she prepared to attack at any moment.
"Drunkard, strong man, Undying, Unrivaled, and the others. You managed to survive from the last lifetime to this one. It mustn't have been easy," Madman Chu spoke slowly. His voice was calm and strong, and his form got clearer and clearer.
He wore a red light armor, and his hair was shoulder-length. His feet were on a black cloud, and he looked cold and handsome. He looked like a natural-born protagonist that everyone had to look at.
"M-Madman Chu…" The drunkard clenched his fists. Even he felt his heart wavering at that moment, as he started to lose his composure.
As for the Unrivaled, he remained silent.
Facing Madman Chu, he suddenly realized how naive he was to try to plot against Madman Chu and Wisdom. Even if the two of them fought until both sides were heavily injured, he would still not have a chance.
Madman Chu's strength was indescribable. Just by standing there, the Unrivaled could feel how insignificant he was.
The Undying took a deep breath as he said, "Don't be afraid, everyone. He just revived himself. His strength is definitely not stable at the moment, so he'll be much weaker. It's not like we don't have a chance."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was incredibly sensitive to life and death and could feel that Madman Chu was still hovering between life and death. His body was empty as well, and could not use too much power.
"You're right, but I've already prepared the nutrients for myself."
Madman Chu's mouth curled up into a smile as he slowly raised his hand, saying, "Come, my power!"
Woosh!
The gray mist in the air surged toward him from everywhere. At the same time, those white-haired monsters and the gray mist cultivators were all sucked toward Madman Chu.
"Ah, no! My power is weakening. How can he absorb my power?"
"I was wrong, I shouldn't have been greedy for the gray mist. It was all Madman Chu's plot!"
"Help, save us. Madman Chu is absorbing us all!"
"Madman Chu, please have mercy. We are your loyal supporters. We are on your side. We're willing to go against Wisdom with you."
…
The scene was far too shocking. Madman Chu controlled billions of lives. In a flash, they were destroyed by him. His power surged horrifyingly.
"You overestimate yourselves. I don't need anyone to help me," Madman Chu smiled coldly.
"Quick, everyone attack. Stop him!" The drunkard shouted.
Of course, they did not just stare as Madman Chu got stronger. At practically the same time, all of the cultivators attacked at the same time.
"Breath of the sword, slash!" Xiao Chengfeng held his sword with both his hands as his eyes glinted sharply, launching a supreme being slash that exceeded Wisdom itself.
He managed to get to the fortieth step at the last moment and learned the breath of the sword.
Qin Manyun played her music, The world itself seemed to turn into a guqin as music was heard, "Musical language, rise!"
Shu Tuqin held a brush as she drew around Madman Chu, the dark ink seemed to rip open, separating Madman Chu from everything, "Painting world, rip!"
