Chapter 288 Annihilation Essence, Ancient Dragon Legacy
As spatial barriers are closed one by one, the Beach, long isolated from the real world, returns, and the Time Rain will reconnect the two dimensions, causing the order within Paradise to begin to crumble.
However, this was ultimately just a seed; before it could grow, it was nipped in the bud by Mordy and Pandora together.
Whether Paradise is in chaos or not is up to the two of them.
"They actually dared to try and destroy the central tower! This isn't just some ordinary troublemaker; we must take decisive action!"
"Team One, move out!"
"After dealing with those troublemakers, we'll lock their digitized souls in the terminal for a while, and they'll probably calm down after that."
"It doesn't matter if they don't want to calm down, I'll help them calm down." Modi tossed a palm-sized amber crystal, a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"The research on symbiotic crystals is nearing completion and will soon be put to use."
The amber crystals reflected the light, appearing sparkling and difficult to associate with "information storage devices" or "symbionts."
But in reality, this is something that can indeed change the fate of humanity.
"The chiral crystal is beautiful no matter when you look at it." Pandora gazed at the symbiotic crystal, a hint of amber reflected in her pupils.
"It not only has artistic value, but also scientific research value. If it were not made of chiral material, it would be a treasure bestowed by God."
Modi agreed with her, and he also thought that the chiral crystals were beautiful, that kind of beauty in terms of numbers.
"In two days, we'll implant it in the first batch of subjects. I'm sure they will..."
...to go a step further.
Pandora took the symbiotic crystal back to examine it. At the same time, the anomalous weather sensor in Paradise hummed, and the screen showed that a time rain was about to break out nearby.
This is the first rain of time to fall upon the world after the spatial barrier disappears, and it will also form a passage connecting the Beach.
Upon receiving the warning, Modi, like a wind chaser, went to the scene to witness firsthand the process of the Time Rain summoning the Beach.
Dark clouds loomed over the city; a storm was brewing.
Modi stood on the wasteland, gazing up at the dark clouds overhead, and could feel the chiral content in the air surging.
The chiral matter is resonating, emitting a signal that calls to another dimension.
"This is the Beach of the Dead? This is the first time I've ever touched it with my own hands."
The raindrops pattered down to the ground, and in an instant, a black, tar-like substance surged up from the ground.
The entire ground instantly turned into a tar swamp. These black substances were restless; after sensing Modi's presence, they climbed onto his trouser legs and tried to continue exploring upwards.
"How restless." Modi lightly stomped his foot, shaking the black tar off and clearing the land within a three-meter radius.
If he were a different gender, given his grotesque, black tar-like nature, he might be able to create some kind of indescribable storyline.
"Are these the stranded ones?"
Modi looked on with curiosity. Not far in front of him, some humanoid creatures crawled out of the tar. Their bodies were covered in black tar, and in general, they looked like they were prone to breeding mold.
Similar to the nature of black tar, they would drag their half-eaten bodies toward Modi after only crawling halfway up their bodies.
He didn't tolerate them and casually cast a restoration spell, restoring the nearest stranded creature to a pile of chiral crystals.
"After they are reduced, all that's left is chiral matter, and nothing else?"
Modi, refusing to believe it, cast a restoration spell on the pile of crystals again, wanting to see what the origin of chiral matter was.
After casting a restoration spell, the crystal remained completely still; this was the first time his restoration spell had failed to work.
He remained expressionless and fired a second, then a third...
A faint green light lingered around the crystal. Finally, with a cracking sound, the crystal shattered and melted, transforming into something intangible and insubstantial.
Modi paused for a moment, then reached out and touched the thing.
A moment later, a feeling of unease welled up in his heart, and he jumped outward without hesitation.
boom!
Flames soared into the sky, and even though Modi had already teleported far away, he could still feel a slight tremor.
A word suddenly popped into his mind.
"Annihilation." His expression was serious. "That invisible and intangible thing from just now should be the cause of the annihilation."
That thing gave him a very bad feeling; touching it was like shaking hands with death.
Looking back in the direction where the explosion had occurred, Modi became increasingly curious about what that substance was. After a moment's thought, he put aside his concerns and jumped back.
Anyway, it's just one Blood God Child dying. How can you conduct a high-risk experiment without any accidents? Just go for it.
Then, a few minutes later, bursts of fire shot into the sky, and the earth trembled incessantly.
Pandora, far away in paradise, also noticed this unusual situation and tilted her head in confusion.
"What does this mean? Why would annihilation occur out of nowhere?"
Considering that this was Modi's private matter, and that the annihilation had not affected Paradise, plus that she had other things to take care of, she did not inquire about it, but kept a watchful eye on the situation there.
After more than a dozen annihilations, a disheveled and covered-up Modi emerged from the ground, wiped his face, and looked thoughtfully at the ground that had been sheared off after the relentless bombardment.
He sighed, thinking that his guess was probably pretty accurate.
"That substance—no, it can't even be called substance, but rather some concept related to death and decay—could it be related to the 'death ray' I'm looking for?"
It's not impossible, since they both involve the word "death".
Thinking of this, he was in trouble again, because that kind of concept was difficult to collect, at least he didn't have any way to do it now, but he was able to erase it by using a fatal blow.
"Never mind that for now, let me take a look at the Beach of the Dead in the distance."
He raised his head, his gaze piercing through the rain, looking into the empty space, landing on the beach where reality overlapped with the sky.
In fact, when the Time Rain fell, the Beach had already intervened in reality, and the tar covering the ground was the best proof of this.
This also makes entering the Beach much easier.
Modi took a step, and in a flash, he entered the Beach of the Dead.
The presence of the living on the beach stirred the stranded creatures lingering there, and like sharks smelling blood, they pounced on Mordi.
And then... boom!
After the annihilation, a large crater appeared on the beach, and many stranded people were wiped out, leaving only the figure of the young man walking on the beach.
"The local residents are so rude."
Modi patted his clothes and looked around. In front of him was a vast ocean, the water as black as ink, as if there was an abyss at the bottom.
Behind him lay the true form of the Dark Beach, a pitch-black sandy beach, where a stranded whale lay at the distant confluence of the sea and the beach.
Perhaps due to the annihilation attack just now, there weren't many stranded creatures around Modi, with only a few scattered on the beach.
"If the water is dark, then it is abyss. Since there is the Nether Beach behind me, then the sea in front of me must correspond to the concept of death in this world, right?"
That pitch-black sea did give him a bad feeling, but the more he felt that way, the more it proved that it was unusual.
"Oh, right, and that stranded whale, maybe there's something strange about it too."
With one step, Modi arrived at the stranded whale in the distance and carefully observed whether it had undergone any changes.
This is a humpback whale that appears to be dead, but its body is neither rotting nor swollen, suggesting that a whale explosion is unlikely to occur.
But what caught Modi's eye was the black tar seeping from the whale's body, a characteristic of stranded whales, which often means... this whale is also a stranded whale.
"Woo-yi"
A deep whale song began, then grew louder and louder; unsurprisingly, the sound came from the whale beside him.
Although Modi couldn't translate its words, he could hear the call in the whale's song; in other words, the stranded whale was calling for its companions.
The whale, which should have been dead, trembled uncontrollably. Its massive head turned, and its murky eyes stared intently at Modi, revealing an unusual longing.
The next second, it slapped its tail and, contrary to common sense, leaped high into the air from the ground.
"Even you can fly?!" Mordy exclaimed in surprise, his entire body enveloped in the shadow cast by the whale.
The whale leaped into the air, adjusted its body, turned head down, opened its mouth wide, and finally crashed heavily to the ground.
As if falling into water, the whale splashed black tar all over the ground as it crashed to the ground, and the whale itself darted into the tar and disappeared with a flick of its tail.
Not far away, Modi emerged from the gap, carefully sensing the tremors underground, trying to locate the whale.
Before long, he found it, but there was not only one abnormal fluctuation, but several others, which came in groups from afar.
Those were the whale's companions.
Tar gushed from the ground, and several enormous humpback whales emerged from the earth, all wanting to swallow Mordi whole.
"Useless, useless." Mordi sat on the frozen throne, which was suspended in mid-air, easily dodging the attacks of the whales.
Before they hit the ground, he raised his right hand and gently pushed out a palm.
The intense heat gathered on his right palm, enveloped by a thin layer of eerie green light that radiated death outwards.
After a mushroom cloud rose into the sky, the Beach fell silent once again.
The whale's remains were completely destroyed; this was an inevitable consequence of being engulfed by a nuclear fireball.
Mordi remained seated on his throne, not glancing at the devastation of the destroyed Beach, but staring intently at the direction of the sea.
On the other side of the sea, there is an enemy, or rather, something hostile to him, lurking on the seabed.
The thing was awakened by his Great Sun Palm. Its consciousness was still unclear, but it instinctively radiated hostility towards him, and its momentum continued to rise.
In just a few seconds, the thing's aura reached its peak and stopped increasing.
"Is it coming?" Mo Di reached into his sleeve and pressed down on the hilt of Yuan Tu's sword.
Under his gaze, waves suddenly appeared on the once calm sea.
The sea level suddenly rose, as if some deep-sea monster had surfaced, stirring up storms and waves.
"This aura... why does it feel somewhat familiar?" A question flashed through Mo Di's mind. Then, he saw a large number of tentacles break through the waves and pierce the sky.
The sea surged upwards, and a ferocious dragon head rose, its golden vertical pupils staring straight ahead, fixed on the frozen throne.
Then, the white dragon body was revealed, with rock-like dragon scales standing upright, resembling the Hakimi Spinning Back Dragon form, with its body arched and its wings spread wide, blotting out the sky.
Looking at the front part alone, it is undoubtedly a majestic dragon, but the whiskers on its lower body ruin this feeling and instead add a touch of eeriness to it.
It was staring intently at Modi, who was also staring back, murmuring, "Ancient Rock Dragon Scale... Is this an ancient dragon?"
This dragon was very different from all the dragons he had ever seen.
Its scales are of a rock-like texture, while its head is more slender and delicate, possessing a beauty distinct from that of dragons—of course, this beauty is only perceptible to the dragon race.
"No, this can't be an ancient dragon. Its bloodline is impure; at most, it's a hybrid. Besides, it's too weak."
Modi dismissed his previous guess.
Every ancient dragon possesses power comparable to an immortal, representing a certain degree of "eternity," and their scales are an unchanging symbol.
"Speaking of which, why is it looking at me like I'm its father's killer? I don't think I killed its parents, did I?" Modi was puzzled, but he didn't have time to think any further.
The hybrid ancient dragon had already opened its mouth wide and started panting at him.
"Roar!!"
For some reason, Mo Di felt an itch in his hands, and a Yuan Tu sword appeared in his hand.
A beam of light shot out from the hybrid's mouth, heading straight for him, clearly indicating that he had been identified as its target.
Yuan Tu was released from his hand and transformed into a vicious blue dragon, which fearlessly bit down at the pillar of light.
The evil dragon closed its mouth, completely swallowing the beam of light. A blinding white light emerged from the gaps in its scales, but it still rushed towards the hybrid.
As the evil dragon attacked, the hybrid's pupils shrank, and its huge wings folded together to protect its body, blocking the blood-red sword light that the evil dragon had transformed into.
A flash of red light, and the wings were torn open, leaving a thick bloodstain.
The hybrid let out a painful roar, suddenly flapped its wings, stirring up a storm and churning the sea.
Yuan Tu, who had just fallen into the sea, was forced out and had no choice but to transform into a vicious dragon again to fight it.
Its bloodlust was stirred by the evil dragon, and it became more and more engrossed in the fight, completely forgetting that it had another enemy lurking in the shadows.
A flash of white light brought the hybrid's attack to an abrupt halt, leaving it only time to let out a sharp, mournful cry.
On its back, the skin and flesh rolled outwards, and precious diluted ancient dragon blood gushed out.
"Looks like I need to add another thing to my assessment of you: your IQ isn't very high."
Abi flew back into Modi's hand, and he stretched out his right hand, which transformed into a giant radiant palm. He scooped up the hybrid and threw it heavily onto the Nether Beach.
The heavy object fell to the ground, and the beach shook twice. From a distance, it looked as if a mountain range had risen out of thin air.
"As expected of the ancient dragon lineage, even a hybrid like this has such a large size. It seems this trip to the Underworld Beach was worthwhile."
Modi cheerfully took samples, and after finishing, threw all the samples into the sea of blood for analysis.
Although this thing is much weaker than the Death Curse Avatar, its bloodline is more valuable.
This is especially true for Mordi.
