Chapter 1947 - Black Hole
Chew!
She let out a single chirp which seemed to contain some archaic quality before she shot toward the clashing center.
A second later, she reached closed enough for lightning bolts to clash against her, and she avoided them with the speed that was unseeable for me; it still kind of amazes me the speed she could fly with, but even with her speed, she could not avoid all the lightning bolts and finally, the first lightning bolt had struck her.
I nearly closed my eyes when I saw it happening, but I forced myself to watch, and it is a good thing I did that as what happened next was extremly surprising.
The thin lightning bolt that was about to clash with her slid past her without striking her body; it seemed like the runes had created some sort of field around her tiny little body that made it hard for anything to hit her.
The first lighting bolt was just a trailer; within a fraction of a second, tens of bolts struck her one after another, and each and every one of them repelled by the field created from those ancient runes.
The lightning bolts were just the beginning.
As she reached closer to the clashing center, her speed had slowed down considerably; the other two formations have finally started to affect her, the physical pressure to crush the physical body and soul hammer to destroy the soul, but these two formations two were only able to slow her down.
.Bearing the full power of all three formations, she soon reached the clashing center before diving right into it.
Seeing her dive into the clashing center, my heart stopped for a moment. She had done something extremly dangerous and foolhardy, and I had let her do it. There is a very high chance that she might not come back from that clashing center.
I had just thought that when the silvery head came out of the clashing center, which power began to weaken rapidly, and by the time her whole body came out, the clashing center all but disappeared, and something dangerous produced out of it.
Chew, Chew, Run!
Ashlyn's chirping, and my heart's warning rang into my mind same time, and I pushed hard against the already half-opened door and ran out with the highest speed; I even burned my blood which I had kept on standby after the warning she had given me before leaving for the clashing center.
Time seemed to slow down in front of my eyes as I saw tiny black holes produced from the clashing center getting bigger and bigger, swallowing everything that came in its way. Its swallowing force is so powerful that it is tearing the formation apart that could vaporize the Tyrants instantly.
Even I, who is halfway into the door, felt its swallowing force and couldn't help but feel horror; this black hole is extremly powerful that I am not in front of it. If I get caught in it, the only choice I will have is to get swallowed by it.
I can't imagine how Ashlyn is resisting the swallowing force, despite her being middle of the hall. It must be due to the runic formation; the formation of ancient runes is very powerful.
The way she is resisting, she will reach me soon. It should I who should be worried about my life; with her, the black hole would also reach me, and I won't be able to resist it.
In a fraction of a second, the swallowing force of the black hole had increased so much that its pull began to affect me, who had burned his blood for the power. Seeing that, I started to ways to search for ways to increse my speed further, and soon, an idea came into my mind.
I activated the swallowing rule at full power and covered my whole body with it, and as I did, I immediately felt the pull lessening considerably.
The relief had lasted for a fraction of seconds as the blackhole went closer; the pull had increased again. The black hole is the personification of the swallowing; how could my little bit of rule power contend against it.
I had already crossed the half step, and as long as I crossed the other half, I would be safe. In the boundaries of the hall, strong formations have been carved that could even contain the black hole. Even if their power regressed over time, it would be still able to stop it for a couple of seconds, which is enough for me.
Moments passed by, and my leg would reach closer and closer to its destination, but the pool would also get stronger and stronger.
As a few more moments passed, the horror began to appear on my face when I saw the pull of the tiny black hole had become strong enough to reduce 70% of my speed, and it had continued to reduce more, if this continued, it won't be long before I also got sucked into it like those formations.
I do not want to die just yet; there are many things that I hadn't accomplished. Hell, I did not even make a breakthrough into the Tyrant; I don't want to die before becoming Tyrant.
With those thoughts in mind, I burned even more of my blood and moved swallowing rule power and energy into every part of my body. I had never done such a thing with swallowing force, but I am doing it now to survive from the black hole.
The pressure eased a little but not much, and a few moments later, the eased pressed disappeared, and more pull of black hole had covered me that now my speed had reduced to 90% of the original.
Hun!
I was struggling hard while using every method I had in my arsenal when suddenly, the vast force eased up, and I was able to take a step; just as I did, Ashlyn came behind me, and I used all my strength to force the door shut.
