Chapter 2012 - 2043: No Other Choice
While Yuan Tian resisted the pressure on his mind and heart, he took in every gaze cast at him by the others.He continued, "I'm sure you all see clearly that this virtual shadow appears because of the Rule Power laid here over time."
"Of course, the key point is that around these forces, there are Fierce Beasts aiding them, providing the most pure energy and strength, causing the shadow to appear."
"If we gather everyone's strength and divide it into two forces, one to attack those beasts providing the energy and the other to target this shadow, perhaps we can achieve twice the result with half the effort."
"Everyone, if, at this point, we are still scheming against each other, in the end, we will all surely die here. With your abilities, this should be crystal clear."
Yuan Tian's words were filled with indifferent coldness, and a hint of warning as his gaze swept across those around him.
All the cultivators who met his gaze nodded heavily.
Subsequently, the Cultivation Power was divided into two forces; one bombarded the open-eyed Fierce Beasts while the other struck the shadow opening its eyes with full force.
As these two forces launched their attacks.
The roars of the Fierce Beasts echoed loudly, and when these roars spread through the world from here, an unprecedented wave surged within the chamber.
The sound caused every cultivator present to tremble, and those whose cultivation had not reached the Lord Realm spewed blood repeatedly, not dead, but rendered powerless.
Those with Lord Cultivation, under the impact of the waves, trembled incessantly, and their gaze at the beasts turned utterly terrified.
Luckily, when the second force landed with all its might upon the shadow, everything shifted drastically.
This shift barely appeared when the speed of the shadow's eyes opening suddenly accelerated.
Though it sped up considerably.
The power and lethal gaze contained within those eyes diminished significantly.
Thus, it seems this round of attacks was extremely effective.
Even when the shadow fully opened its eyes, and the blood-red light in them was striking, the former power was no longer there.
The appearance of such a phenomenon brought a sense of relief to all present.
They clearly felt that even though the shadow was still formidable, it was now much weaker than they anticipated.
At least, no matter what power the shadow unleashed, it was within their capacity to withstand.
As the cultivators there stared intently at the shadow, its eyes, bloody and devoid of any human emotion, turned toward them.
There was no trace of emotions one might see in a human, and even the emotions a Fierce Beast might possess were entirely absent.
The cold hue filling those eyes was absolute, the chilling indifference penetrating to the bone, suggesting that sense of coldness was the epitome of frigid.
The luster emitted from those eyes could make anyone without enough cultivation or Heart Realm die on the spot.
As these eyes swept around, the shadow's hazy, indistinct lips moved slightly.
"Those who dare to awaken me deserve to die, deserve to die, deserve to die, deserve to die, deserve to die..."
As the intermittent, lingering voice spilled out, a storm of waves spread madly from the shadow.
Within these waves, an immense destructive power was concealed.
As soon as they surged forward, a decaying effect was released, and these auras fell.
The bodies of the cultivators there began to decay visibly, and in a thousandth of a breath, their Cultivation Power and Life Span were reduced by five hundred years.
Feeling this, all present were greatly shocked, realizing such loss resulted merely from a casual wave of wind from the shadow.
What if it launched a full attack?
If the eyes were naturally opened in accordance with the cosmic order rather than being forced by their power?
This kind of attack would likely be beyond the capability of anyone here, wouldn't it?
Such thoughts arose in the minds of all these cultivators, making each swallow secretly, regardless of their cultivation level.
Their gaze at the shadow changed once again.
In every eye, there was profound fear.
Witnessing this scene, even Ye Feng felt a sense of acute terror.
Moreover, Ye Feng inferred from this that in such a place, there could be such powerful beasts and such a formidable shadow.
This suggests that the Elixir guarded by these beasts must be incredibly precious, possibly far exceeding all the elixirs he had obtained so far.
Reflecting on this, Ye Feng felt a rare sense of exhilaration.
"Attack! Combine all our forces! Attack! We mustn't delay any longer. We mustn't let it fully awaken, or we shall all perish." At this point, Yuan Tian suddenly roared.
This shout immediately roused all the cultivators from their previous state of immersion.
Every cultivator launched another round of attacks, and as these assaults landed on the shadow, much of the energy surrounding the shadow diminished once more.
However, it seemed the task of erasing the shadow entirely, given its form, was no small challenge. After the cultivators' combined power had left the shadow's form,
the shadow's lips moved once more.
"Provoking my might, regardless of cultivation, regardless of origin, regardless of position, leaves no path but destruction."
Boom.
As this voice fell, the daylight sun across the cosmic heavens swiftly changed, becoming the Eternal Black.
