Chapter 1563: Is it doomsday? Sigma_ Hitesh_
In a remote corner of the Sea Domain of Nihility...
It was a place where red clouds gathered, many volcanoes growing on that sea of clouds. It looked bright from a far distance due to the sparks and fire because each volcano here was actually a furnace.
Many warriors cultivating Fire power Upanishad were scattered by the mouths of the fiery volcanoes. They inhaled and exhaled smoke and fire to quench their bodies or weapons. They all had skin like the burning red rocks, their hair red and bodies average.
They were the typical members of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan.
This place was called the Volcano Cloud Sea, a unique area in the Sea Domain of Nihility. Most of the blacksmiths of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan would stay in this area to cultivate and forge weapons as this volcano area was the natural furnace that could melt even the hardest metals, allowing them to make them exquisite weapons.
At the beginning, members of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan had considered this area was their only workshop. However, as they got stronger and grew further, they found more suitable areas in foreign territories in the Sea Domain. Gradually, many experts of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan had scattered.
No matter what, the Volcano Cloud Sea was still one of the biggest workshops of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan until today. This workshop wasn’t far from the White Bone Clan and the Phantom Clan. The leaders of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan here also wanted to establish good relationships with the Phantom Clan and the White Bone Clan. They had lived and cultivated in peace and harmony with the other two clans for so many years.
Tahm was a warrior at the Third Sky of Immortal Realm, also an excellent blacksmith of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan. He was in charge of this workshop, teaching the members of his clan how to forge and protect this place.
At this moment, Tahm was sitting on a red-iron crystal platform above the mouth of a several-thousand-meters tall volcano, his entire body burning vibrantly.
Between his hands, a beautiful ice-blue hammer was spinning inside smoke and fire.
The scorching flames flew up from the volcano underneath and twirled around Tahm’s body like snakes, which increased his fire power.
Slowly, many tiny patterns appeared on the hammer. Although the little patterns were still changing and their final forms hadn’t confirmed yet, the hammer was emitting a strange coldness in the fiery flame. It was so strange, indeed!
Around one hundred young members of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan were watching their Grandmaster’s techniques. They concentrated so hard that they didn’t dare to breathe loudly.
“Oh look! Look at the sky!”
All of a sudden, a member of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan screamed as he couldn’t help it.
His area was only filled with the ‘boop boop’ sounds of the burning flame; thus, his scream was ear-piercing. The hammer in Tahm’s hands shivered as if it was affected.
He was angry and wanted to scold the young man who had just screamed. However, he was attracted by the fearful eyes of the man looking at the sky.
Tahm lifted his head, looking at the sky. His face changed, and he also shouted, “Madam Montecie!”
Deep inside the flaming red clouds several thousand meters above their heads, a petite body appeared. It was Montecie!
Her entire body was gory, and she had some small cuts on her little face. At the same time, her clothes were torn like rags
She was Montecie, the strongest expert of the Phantom Clan, one of the Ten Territory Ancestors of this sea of stars. Her name could shake the sky. Many creatures were frightened when they saw her instinctively.
But today, she seemed to have run helter-skelter, and appeared to be badly hurt.
Tahm was startled. He pondered for a moment and then shouted, “Get lost, y’all!”
Pausing his forging, Tahm asked the others to move away. He stood respectfully by the mouth of the volcano, talking anxiously, “I’m Tahm of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan. Greetings, Madam Montecie! I wonder what do you need us to work on for you?”
“I want to borrow your teleport formation at the core of the volcano.” Montecie’s voice was weak. She answered him and immediately aimed at the volcano by Tahm.
Tahm was filled with fear.
The Heavenly Craftsmen Clan had spent a lot of efforts to build a teleport formation that connected directly to a secret place of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan. They had kept this secret for years, and only the core members of the clan knew about this formation. Why did Montecie know about it?
Moreover, that teleport formation led to a remote area, which was so far away from the Phantom Clan. What happened to Montecie that she wanted to use the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan’s teleport formation to that concealed area?
“Teacher! Teacher! Hurry up! Look at the sky! What’s going on?”
The members of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan all lifted their heads to look at the sky, their faces utterly frightened and their bodies quivering.
Battleships emerged, packing their sky. There were tens of thousands of battleships, each of them carrying one thousand warriors. Thus, the total number of warriors on those battleships was extremely terrifying.
It wasn’t what had frightened them. They were petrified when they saw the brocade flags on those battleships, which were the drawings of giant monsters, dark abysses, packed soul seas, and the sky-reaching demon auras. Those were the battleships of the Devouring Clan, Ancient Monster Clan, Soul Clan, and Black Demon Clan.
The four clans had arrived; banners with Serene Prison, Edgar, Rupert, and Beverly’s crests hovered in front of their fleet. It meant that the strongest experts of the four clans were here!
The earth-destroying auras came from the sky, shaking the fellows of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan. They didn’t know what was going on.
This place was relatively rural, and the blacksmiths here didn’t pay attention to the general situation of the galaxy out there, or what had just happened in the Sea Domain of Nihility recently.
But, Tahm knew something.
Seeing the fleets coming like clusters of black clouds that were stretching thousands of miles in the void, and connecting it to Montecie’s wounds, he immediately knew what had happened to the latter.
“Tahm, if you let her escape through your teleport formation, your Heavenly Craftsmen Clan will be erased. All the members of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan scattered around the universe will be hunted down. We won’t spare a single fellow of your race!” Behind Edgar was the endless darkness where the members of the Devouring Clan were hidden. He observed while talking coldly.
“This is the battle between the seven clans, so you guys better not interfere. You don’t want to know the consequences,” said Rupert.
“Anyone who dares go against us will have to die!” Beverly said in his coldest and harshest voice.
Serene Prison didn’t talk to the members of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan. He only gazed at Montecie landing on the mouth of the volcano, talking indifferently, “You can’t leave. On the way here, we’ve killed all of your companions. You are alone now. You could come here because of your Time power Upanishad. As you are engaging in a battle of attrition with the four of us, how can you defeat us?”
On the way to this area, every time they were about to catch Montecie, they would feel dizzy, and their souls would get flustered. After they had recovered, they would find themselves at the location they used to be forty seconds ago, which would lengthen the distance between them and Montecie.
Every time Montecie used her power to bring them back dozens of second ago to stretch the distance between them, she could run a little further.
Serene Prison and the others knew that even if Montecie was strong, she couldn’t endure using her power for a long time. They knew this from the wounds on her body.
Actually, those wounds weren’t created by Serene Prison. It was the price she had to pay for rewinding Time. She had to use her energy significantly.
They weren’t hurried but happy as Montecie did that. What they were afraid the most was that Montecie, in her frustration, would accumulate her best power to fight against them. Once Montecie exploded her soul altar to use Time power Upanishad for the last time, she would distort the time current, which could make them pay a terrifying price.
Rumors said that the ultimate Time power Upanishad could bring the enemies to the past when they were the most vulnerable.
As Serene Prison and the other three were at the Second Sky of Territory Ancestor Realm, they had accumulated for years to reach their current attainment. If Montecie took risks and neglected her life to rewind time to thousands of years ago, Serene Prison and the others would have their realm reduced.
Tens of thousands of years ago, Serene Prison and the other three were at the Incipient God Realm or Immortal Realm. If it ended up happening, they would vomit blood in anger. They would need tens of thousands of years to accumulate energy to re-reach their current realms.
It wasn’t the result they wanted to see.
For this reason, they didn’t dare to force her. Quite the contrary, they hoped that Montecie had some hope to continue to consume her soul energy and rewind for a short time like she had done. At the moment her soul pond was drained, they would join hands to control her or even kill her directly.
They were cautious to plan thoroughly, and they thought that they could carry on their plan for a while. However, Montecie came here with the plan to use the secret formation of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan to run away. This would destroy their plan completely.
They had to stop her. If Montecie left, the consequences would be terrible.
“If Montecie leaves, your Heavenly Craftsmen Clan will be obliterated,” Beverly coldly reminded them from the sky.
All the members of the Heavenly Craftsmen Clan here were screaming and screeching in fright. They had stated clearly that they wanted to obliterate the entire Heavenly Craftsmen Clan, and not just the members of this clan in this Volcano Cloud Sea.
If Montecie left, their entire race would be burned. They couldn’t afford this price.
The strongest experts of the Soul Clan, Devouring Clan, Black Demon Clan, and Ancient Monster Clan, the four Territory Ancestors had said that!
They did have the power to erase the entire Heavenly Craftsmen Clan!
After Tahm was bewildered for a while, he found that Montecie had entered the volcano. As his fellows were screaming frantically, he didn’t have another option.
“No!”
The fire blended with his blood flew in the air and then sprinkled on the volcano.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The teleport formation inside the volcano was triggered and created a connection with his soul.
“Madam Montecie, I can’t let you go! My Heavenly Craftsmen Clan can’t be obliterated because of me! I’m sorry!” Tahm screamed and forcefully pulled one of his arms off! Crack! Crack!
The teleport formation inside the extinct volcano was refined with his blood, so it had a magical connection with his body. After he had torn off one of his arms, the teleport formation inside the mountain exploded partially.
At this moment, a teleport formation hovering above a lava pond had a corner of its exploded.
Montecie had come to this place already. But before she could step on the teleport formation, it had broken. Moreover, the broken part was so big that she couldn’t fix it.
She pulled a sad face, her eyes desperate as she mumbled to herself, “Is it true that God wants to destroy me here...?”
If Tahm had cut only five of his fingers, this teleport formation wouldn’t have been shattered that much, and she could have fixed it with her power. But to save his race, Tahm had dismembered one of his arms, which had broken one-fourth of the teleport inside the mountain!
She couldn’t reverse it!
“Is it my fate?” Montecie lifted her head to look through the mouth of the volcano. Through the thick, red flame, she saw countless battleships and the four of Serene Prison’s group, but couldn’t find any hope.
