MTLNOVEL Chapter 1018: Annihilation of the Interface
Whoosh!
The golden arrow pierced Chen Yu's heart, accompanied by intense stabbing pain, and blood dripped from the wound.
Chen Yu did not die.
The arrowhead carried a force of golden lightning, which exploded. Although the mysterious heart endured most of it, the remaining force still spread throughout the body, breaking the defense of the Star Pattern Robe and leaving a scorched patch on Chen Yu's skin.
Fortunately, the injury was not severe.
Moreover, Chen Yu felt that this powerful golden lightning might allow him to open up more than a dozen Star Acupoints after stimulating his whole body.
"Huh?"
The Great Commander was preparing to enter the pit and seize the treasure, but was surprised to find that the golden arrow did not penetrate Chen Yu.
This made him very curious.
That golden arrow was a top-grade profound weapon he acquired during a mission in the first forbidden area, but unfortunately, it was a one-time-use item.
With his ability to activate this profound weapon, it was sufficient to kill two or three Chen Yus.
Yet at this moment, the arrow had pierced Chen Yu's heart but didn't penetrate through, which was abnormal.
The even more abnormal thing happened in the next moment.
Whoosh!
With the arrow still stuck in him, Chen Yu suddenly dashed out like a burning meteor, arriving beside the Great Commander in the blink of an eye.
"You..."
The Great Commander was full of shock, barely uttered a word before Chen Yu punched him.
Bang!
A large hole appeared in the Great Commander's body, destroying his internal organs.
"Ah..."
He glanced down, and with extreme resentment, fell back, dying with his eyes open.
After killing the Great Commander, Chen Yu pulled out the arrow from his heart.
The arrow had lost its luster and become ordinary scrap metal, which he discarded.
"Interdimensional Core!"
Chen Yu muttered in excitement and rushed into the pit.
Inside, was a dark and chaotic space, with occasional space cracks tearing open.
Upon entering this space, Chen Yu found himself severely hindered, moving sluggishly, and his Spiritual Sense was disrupted, making it impossible to use space Profound Meaning.
This chaotic void space was extremely fascinating.
Whoosh!
The Interdimensional Core sensed Chen Yu's arrival and swiftly retreated.
In such a situation, even if Chen Yu wanted to catch it, it would be somewhat difficult.
No wonder the thin veiled merfolk transmitted a call for companions.
But Chen Yu had a mysterious heart that was already eager. The moment Chen Yu stopped suppressing it, the heart began to beat violently, generating a strong suction force.
Buzz buzz!
The Interdimensional Core trembled slightly, its light dimming, feeling awe as it drifted toward Chen Yu.
It resisted internally, holding unknown fear, but found it difficult to resist the powerful suction of the mysterious heart.
Ultimately.
The Interdimensional Core approached Chen Yu and was caught in his hand.
It resembled a perfect, flawless round jewel but was missing a piece and had a few cracks.
Even now with the Interdimensional Core in hand, the suction from the mysterious heart hadn't disappeared, and it seemed even more eager, as if it would absorb Chen Yu's hand as well if he continued holding it.
"Since it's that important, I'll give it to you."
Chen Yu let go of his hand.
Such a precious Interdimensional Core, if he could keep it privately, he certainly wouldn't hand it over.
But he truly didn't know what use it had besides producing Profound Meaning crystals.
Since that's the case, he gave it to the mysterious heart.
He eagerly anticipated what changes would occur after the mysterious heart obtained the Interdimensional Core.
Buzz!
The Interdimensional Core left his palm, seemingly trying to merge with Chen Yu's heart within his body.
Just at this moment.
Whoosh!
A shadow not far behind suddenly shot out, appearing as a dark, deathly figure resembling a merfolk.
"Kid, the Interdimensional Core is mine."
An evil soul's voice resonated.
"You are... Old Black Fish?"
Chen Yu responded, his hair standing on end, his soul trembling.
It turned out that Senior Lai from the Merfolk Clan wasn't dead!
"I'm quite curious, with such an injury, yet you didn't die, otherwise, my current opponent would be your Great Commander."
"He and my soul will's strength is not much different, maybe there's a surprise, but you... heh heh."
It turns out earlier, when facing the combined might of Chen Yu and the Great Commander, Senior Lai had a plan. Somehow, he entered a "feigned death" state, letting Chen Yu and the Great Commander fight to the death, then seized the opportunity to strike, becoming the victor.
He also had the idea of monopolizing the Interdimensional Core and then fleeing far away, living freely.
Whoosh!
The dark, deathly merfolk figure plunged into Chen Yu's body.
"This is Body Seizing?"
Chen Yu discerned.
Inside the Soul Sea, another immense deathly soul will appeared, immediately pouncing on Chen Yu, emitting a boundless deathly soul aura, intending to suppress and kill Chen Yu's soul.
But Chen Yu's soul will wasn't weak either and wasn't something that Senior Lai could easily overwhelm with a single strike.
"Futile struggle, you might as well give up resistance and hand over your body to me."
Senior Lai let out a sinister, evil laugh.
Suddenly, upon entering this body, he noticed something unusual about it.
At the heart, there was a colorful, crystal-like heart slowly "devouring" the "Interdimensional Core."
"What... is going on? Your heart... My Interdimensional Core."
Senior Lai was utterly shocked when witnessing this scene, becoming incoherent.
Everything he did was for the Interdimensional Core, but now Chen Yu's heart was about to devour it.
No, Senior Lai suddenly realized.
The mysterious heart had been stabbed earlier by the Great Commander's trump card and remained unscathed, and now it could even swallow the Interdimensional Core.
This might be an even more precious treasure than the interface core.
I've struck it rich!
I must obtain this body.
Boom!
The mysterious heart that devoured the interface core began to tremble violently, emitting an ancient and forbidden aura that permeated out, causing the entire death world to shake, tearing numerous spatial fractures.
Chen Yu sensed that the interface core had fused into the internal space of the heart.
The previously dark red and grayish world suddenly glowed with light and color, and the space was no longer dead silent; life appeared.
Within the heart, it seemed as if an immense power that had slept for ages was awakening.
With each heartbeat, the whole external world trembled, layer upon layer collapsing, heading towards destruction.
And Senior Lai's soul was also suppressed by this supreme aura, trembling and prostrating.
Perhaps because Chen Yu had completely merged with the heart, he alone was unaffected, and felt his soul and body undergoing an unknown change at that moment.
"A good opportunity."
Chen Yu immediately launched a counterattack, his soul's will transforming into a giant black fist, pounding ferociously.
Senior Lai's soul howled in pain, repeatedly begging for mercy.
Boom!
At a certain moment, the mysterious heart violently shook, the entire dreamy crystal heart emitting ten thousand divine glows.
Under the glow of divine light, Senior Lai's soul dispersed like cloud and fog.
Chen Yu's consciousness also suffered a huge impact, as if a small boat in the ocean could be overturned by a massive wave at any time.
Rumble!
Cracks appeared layer by layer in the surrounding space, a spatial storm blowing and destroying everything.
"Leave here."
Chen Yu felt the collapse and destruction of the entire interface.
As soon as he generated the thought of leaving, the mysterious heart released a powerful force, allowing him to leave the place.
On the other side.
The Tower Stone King and the Flame Human Clan, continually heading upward, attempting to leave the waters and reach the sky, felt despair.
The edge of the sea was surprisingly also the edge of space.
They instantly realized that this was an interface on the verge of destruction, shrunk to a very small part, probably with the entire space filled with water, with no land or sky.
They were just about to leave.
Suddenly, enchanting divine glows illuminated from the depths of the interface, making them feel infinite reverence, as if seeing a deity.
Immediately after, the surrounding space tore apart, and both of their bodies were annihilated.
...
Chen Yu felt the surrounding space shaking, and in the next instant, he arrived at the Soul Burial Lake.
This place was affected by the space's destruction earlier, with spatial fractures twisting and spreading around.
Once an interface loses its core, it is bound to be destroyed, not to mention the changes in the mysterious heart have accelerated the destruction.
That interface nearing death, once destroyed, would produce enough force to impact the main world.
Whoosh!
The changes in the mysterious heart were not over yet, and Chen Yu's consciousness was a bit blurry, dragging his body, soaring upwards.
Rumble!
The space at the bottom of the Soul Burial Lake ripped apart, the storm of destruction continuously expanding, swallowing and annihilating everything.
Apart from Chen Yu, there was also an Earth Spirit Clan member and a Merfolk Clan member, who did not enter another space and were exploring the bottom of the Soul Burial Lake.
The suddenly erupting spatial storm instantly exterminated them both.
...
Above the Soul Burial Lake.
The high-levels of four clans were stationed there.
Suddenly, everyone felt a terrifying heart-palpitating force erupting from underground.
"What's going on?"
The crown-wearing Merfolk King, his heart skipped a beat, his Spiritual Sense probing into the Soul Burial Lake.
"What are you doing? Didn't we agree not to have any contact with them? Wait for everyone to come out and distribute the benefits according to what they obtained."
Nie Hua immediately shouted.
"Hmph, haven't you noticed something's wrong down there?"
The crown-wearing Merfolk King coldly scolded.
Nie Yuan remained silent, his face grim.
The others also sensed something, preparing to release their Spiritual Sense to check the situation.
But the force from underground was becoming more terrifying, even Nie Hua felt a strong crisis.
Suddenly.
Bang!
Something rushed out, directly colliding and scattering the Spiritual Sense of the four clans' various powerhouses.
Immediately after, they saw a figure, rushing into the sky.
That person was Chen Yu, emanating a suppressive aura, with a faint glow spreading from his heart area.
Nie Hua glanced at Chen Yu, surprised in his heart, what happened just now? It seemed something on Chen Yu's body blasted away his Spiritual Sense.
In the next moment.
"No good, retreat quickly."
Nie Hua's expression changed drastically, shouting suddenly.
The rulers of the other three clans also issued orders one after another.
"Retreat!"
...
Bang boom!
A chaotic spatial storm shot into the sky, shaking all sides.
The entire Soul Burial Lake was destroyed, countless vengeful spirits and blue lake water instantly disappearing without a trace.
Whoosh!
An area of several hundred miles was enveloped in storm dust.
The powerhouses of the four surrounding clans, all tensed up, held their breath, feeling a sense of surviving a catastrophe.
If they hadn't retreated in time just now, they feared everyone would have perished there.
The entire Soul Burial Lake vanished without a trace, the ground beneath deep and dark, like a bottomless pit, still exuding a destructive aura.
