Chapter 243: Fragments
“So… did we miss something?”
A black projection loomed above like a pillar supporting the skies, while fierce, icy-blue flames burned in its cavernous eye sockets. Though the air was still, its thick black gown shifted and swayed.
As if responding to some unseen command, the projection slowly raised its head, its withered skeletal hands firmly grasping its scythe.
“Whoosh!!…” A powerful surge of [magic] erupted outwards along with its movements, unleashing an anguished howl as the wind whipped into a frenzy and sinister cracks began to tear the earth asunder.
The sky lost its glow in that instant, the air turning heavy and still as the ground began to tremble without pause.
The area turned deathly silent and still, as if holding its breath, bracing for the onslaught of the incoming storm.
Despite their varied complexions, a collective astonishment was written all over their faces.
It was unknown what Lin had sensed, as she gazed fixedly at the projection looming in the boundary between heaven and the earth. Her eyes narrowed, as her lips moved — murmuring words that no one could understand.
Through the slits of his cross-shaped helmet, Ji Bai had also locked his gaze onto the astonishing figure in the air.
