Chapter 893: The Blooming of the Void Orchid (Part 2/2)
MW Major spoiler: This might start to become quite a spoiler for Martial World, but not till somewhere much further in the future for Martial World.
When Yi Yun's consciousness connected to the ancient Fey God Stone, he felt that everything around him had vanished. The young elites who were meditating around the Fey God Stones, as well as the lingering nebulous fog of Chaos had all disappeared.
Yi Yun came into a completely unfamiliar world.
Wherever he looked, it was the deep depths of the universe. And beneath his feet were brilliant spiraling galaxies with breathtaking beauty.
And in front of Yi Yun was the Purple Crystal Origins with shimmering purple light. It was suspended in the void and it was slowly spinning.
After Yi Yun came to this alternate world, he tried to look into the Purple Crystal that was embedded in his heart countless times, but the Purple Crystal was as mysterious and clear as it ever was. Looking at it made it seem transparent, but Yi Yun had no idea what profound mysteries it possessed.
And today, the Purple Crystal that Yi Yun saw was completely different…
The feeling of not knowing anything had disappeared. In Yi Yun's vision, the Purple Crystal range extended out limitlessly. It gave Yi Yun the a feeling that there was a universe in the Purple Crystal.
The Purple Crystal expanded as it revolved, as it became ethereal. It slowly spread throughout the universe, clouding Yi Yun's field of vision with a misty purple color.
And amid this emanated color of purple, Yi Yun saw a figure with its back facing him.
The person was a man with long hair. He wore a black suit of armor, and he held a spear in his hand. Yi Yun felt that this figure was a good distance away from him, but the moment he saw this person, Yi Yun felt his heart quiver intensely. He felt like he was facing the Universe and the primordial stars.
As the figure slowly turned around, a terrifying pressure surged at him. There was intense killing intent with worldly laws trembling. Amid such magnificent pressure, Yi Yun felt like he was a tiny boat in a storm, and he could be swallowed up at any time.
Who was this person?
Yi Yun found it hard to think. The pressure from the figure and the impact of the nomological forces around him made Yi Yun feel like his body and soul were separating!
At this moment, Yi Yun felt an extremely familiar aura from the man with long hair.
It was… the Purple Crystal!?
A purple crystal body shimmered in the man's chest, almost identical to the feeling that Yi Yun had with the Purple Crystal.
Yi Yun did not believe that this person was the future him. Could it be the past owner of the Purple Crystal?
Suddenly, the man with long hair waved his hand, sending the spear flying.
The spear constantly expanded in size while it traveled through the universe. It kept expanding and finally, it became an incredulous size. It could string up hundreds of stars!
When the large spear landed beneath the man's feet, there was land, oceans, plants, animals, including Fey beasts and humans growing on the spear.
A spear had transformed into a narrow world strip?
Yi Yun was alarmed. He did not know what sort of concept this was. The man had transformed his weapon into a world!
The world expanded under the man's feet as Yi Yun felt like he had set foot on the narrow piece of land.
In the hazy world, the clouds hung low. There was lightning flashing through the sky, as worldly laws seem to transform into endless fragments. The world seemed to present its Origins powers.
"These are nomological fragments!"
Yi Yun felt his heart skip a beat. He knew very well how valuable all these fragments were!
These were laws of Origins. The 12 Empyrean Heavens had been formed for eons, and the Universe had long taken form. The laws had evolved into a maturity. Could he gain insights of the Origins from such complete laws?
That would be impossible!
This was also why many mighty figures from the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven had their eyes set on the Primordial Empyrean Heaven. After all, the laws in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven were not complete, making them easier to grasp.
However, the Primordial Empyrean Heaven's laws were chaotic and trivial. It was easier said than done to search for the laws of the Origins from such complex laws!
No one knew if a fragment of the laws of Origins could be obtained, even after an unmeasurable amount of meditation.
But now, in front of Yi Yun, there were fragmentary laws of Origins flying everywhere. Such fragments were easy to absorb. Even Supremacies from the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven would probably go crazy when they saw such a scene!
"I… I want to meditate!"
These nomological fragments made Yi Yun covet them. However, he could only see them but not touch them. These laws were too far from him. He could barely see some of what was in there, but the immense pressure that this world emitted made it hard for him to maintain his calm.
He could not meditate over them!
Yi Yun felt his heart bleed for all the fragmentary laws of Origins. It was equivalent to receiving nothing after entering a treasure mountain.
Who was this spear-wielding man in the phantom image? What was his relationship with the Purple Crystal?
This person felt more terrifying than the Pure Yang Sword Palace's owner!
Boom!
At this moment, it sounded like there were countless thunder booming in the spear-wielding man's body. The fragmentary laws of Origins in the sky began to flow into the man's body. A series of runic patterns condensed around his body!
The runic patterns shimmered and there was a phantom image in every runic pattern.
They were either gods or demons.
Some of the phantom images looked dignified, with lotuses beneath them and a hazy halo behind them.
Some of the phantom images looked ferocious, with blood-stained weapons in hand, as they stepped on countless bloody skulls.
The phantom images were arranged in a circle, and together with the runic patterns, they eventually formed a circular wheel.
10000 Demon Wheel of Existence!
For some unknown reason, this name appeared in Yi Yun's mind.
The man with long hair held the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence that sealed gods and demons while standing in front of him. Yi Yun took in all of the laws in the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence.
Yi Yun suddenly understood that the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence was most likely a frightening divine mystical art.
And what he witnessed was the scene of the spear-wielding man's formation of a world and his creation of the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence. It was most likely an imagery relic of the Purple Crystal. This man was indeed a former owner of the Purple Crystal!
Yi Yun looked up into the sky. There were still remnant fragmentary laws of Origins. However, Yi Yun no longer wanted to look at the fragments anymore. He tried hard to widen his eyes as he tried to look at the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence clearly.
However, the pressure that the man emanated was too powerful. As Yi Yun resisted the pressure, he attempted to study the laws, but he felt that his own will was on the brink of collapse.
He tried his best to memorize and comprehend, but his mental energy quickly reached its limit.
Boom!
The spiritual world suddenly shattered as everything in front of him vanished.
The scene suddenly changed. Yi Yun had abruptly returned to the Primordial Space. His surroundings were still pervaded with the gasses of Chaos, and in front of him, the three Fey God Stones were still suspended in the void.
Yi Yun felt a coldness across his forehead. It was dense beads of sweat that oozed off his forehead.
It was astounding!
Yi Yun never knew that there were such memories left behind in the Purple Crystal.
And furthermore… it might not be limited to these memories.
However, Yi Yun's mental strength was limited. He could only see up to this point before not being able to persist on.
Yi Yun knew without thinking that the Purple Crystal had existed for an extremely long period of time. What about the images it that were recorded within?
Now, Yi Yun had only seen a tiny glimpse of them. Just the fragmentary laws of Origins that formed into the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence were enough to thrill Yi Yun.
What if he could grasp a tinge of the charm of the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence through repeated observations?
How high would his strength increase?
"Senior Brother, are you alright?" At this moment, a sweet voice echoed in Yi Yun's ears.
Yi Yun followed the source of the sound and he realized it was his 'neighbor'. It came from the blue-haired young lady who was meditating in front of the twenty-seventh Fey God Stone.
She was younger than him.
"I'm fine."
Yi Yun waved his hand. He was extremely excited!
Although there was still a dull pain in his soul, Yi Yun could not care about the expenditure of his mental energy after catching a glimpse of the endless treasures sealed in the Purple Crystal. All he wanted to do was recover his mental energy before entering the Purple Crystal again to meditate over the laws of Origins and master the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence.
