The River of Time released an immense power, and this tremendous lock that seemed to have bound everything between Heaven and Earth, started to become illusory or transparent. The lock fought back as the sounds of chains rattling echoed across the world. Everybody listened to the sound, wondering whether it was good or bad news, and the answer was soon revealed.
Volcanoes started erupting, releasing an inferno in the world. Worlds or universes of water flooded other areas or domains, drowning buildings and voices of despair. Vacuum zones appeared randomly, including in highly populated areas. The earth shook, destroying everything in its path. Forests suddenly lost all their vitality, turning into dead zones. Ores started growing uncontrollably from the earth, ravaging everything in their path.
The world felt the wrath of Mother Nature, starting with the Five Elements losing control and their balance. But this was just the beginning. The Five Elements Laws were not the only ones affected. The moon and sun rose and fell as Yin-Yang laws were broken. Tribulations and Divine Punishment descended out of nowhere on random cultivators as the Thunder Laws trembled. Gates from Samsara opened, releasing ghosts and unknown Yin creatures as the Laws of Life and Death became the next target.
People had their lives instantly drained from them as the secrets of fate became transparent to them and they could not resist peeping. Some areas suddenly reverted to ancient times. Space portals opened, connecting random areas or domains. All these disasters were catastrophic to cultivators, but the one who suffered the most, as always, was the mortals.
However, Wang Wei was not in the situation to care about that. After swinging that sword, he felt his stamina and power draining at an alarming rate. Luckily, he allowed his body to bear all the brunt of using this artifact, or his soul would probably explode if it were part of the equation. He observed the result with great concentration.
Wang Wei's plan was inspired by how the universe dealt with isolating Time Mark and killing someone from the past. He used the authority of the Time Beast to send the lock and its effect to an alternate timeline. The primary purpose of the blood and sword was to boost his strength to that level and boost the power of the Time Beast.
He also chose to use the River of Time because it was Maitreya's domain and where Supreme Unity had the least control or authority. Wang Wei concentrated to provide ample power to his sword. Time was running out, but he knew that as long as the lock was weakened to a sufficient level, Maitreya could use her authority from the River of Time to accelerate the process. So, the only issue was whether he could last long enough to reach that point.
The lock continued fighting and became even more transparent; new changes happened in the world. People started to regain connection to the Grand Dao Source and other Grand Constructs, such as the Source Qi Space. The Immortal Path cultivators almost cried as they saw hope for their Immortal King Path. The others also did not hide their excitement. Unfortunately, the weaker cultivators were too busy surviving to care about such a thing.
'Almost there,' Wang Wei thought as beads of sweat dripped from his forehead. However, things would never go so smoothly. A cry echoed from the lock before a shadowy figure with a pair of cold eyes appeared. Wang Wei stared at those cold eyes with furrowed brow: 'This should be his last protective measure.'
"Sage Lin Qi, it's your time to shine," Wang Wei muttered as his breath became more rugged. A golden scroll appeared in the distance, and after a few seconds of releasing its holy light, it transformed into the gentle and kind Sage Lin Qi. The latter nodded to Wang Wei before rushing to confront the lock's spirit.
The battle was instantly intense, but Wang Wei also immediately knew Sage Lin Qi had no chance. His brow furrowed deeper. This [Timeline Banishing Spell], cast using a semi-completed transcendent artifact and false transcendent power, was draining him at an exponential rate. If not for Xun Junyao's spirit helping him manage things, he wouldn't have lasted more than ten seconds. But on top of everything, he still has to worry about other things.
Wang Wei's mind went on overdrive, trying to think of a way to deal with the situation. But before he could come up with a solution, a Golden Body of Merit flew from the north and fused with Sage Lin Qi. 'Tong Ruobing?' Wang Wei thought as he recognized that golden body. Following her actions, a few more golden bodies showed up to aid Sage Lin Qi, proving that more of them hid themselves and did not answer to Wang Wei's previous call.
