Two years and a month passed.
Grimm traveled back and forth between the various coordinate points of this world. Occasionally, he would meet one or two maverick World Lords, or World Lords who had become the guardians of the tribe, just like Grimm in the past.
As for the Fallen Hound, after following Grimm for half a month, it was released by Grimm and returned to the mountains to continue being the King of Fallen Hounds.
Now, Grimm had explored more than half of the more than a hundred coordinate points. Doubts and worries were also constantly plaguing Grimm.
Could it be that he was wrong?
On this day, Grimm, whose expression was getting more and more solemn, came to a bamboo forest. According to the more than a hundred coordinate points that he had calculated, the next coordinate should be here.
This was a strange kind of bamboo that was like a tall tower. It was different from the bamboo that grew in the warm temperate climate of the Sorcerers World. Although the bamboo here was also segmented, the interior was not hollow. Instead, it was occupied as a nest by a kind of soft mud monster. Although it was strange, whether it was the bamboo or the mud monster, there was nothing worth studying. Therefore, as a Stigmata Sorcerer, Grimm did not care.
Squeak squeak squeak squeak …
Occasionally, he stepped on a bamboo shoot, and the young mud monster inside would scream. After Grimm walked past, these mud monsters that were trampled would regroup and crawl to another place.
After walking a few rounds in this large bamboo forest, Grimm felt extremely strange. He could not find the coordinate point that he had calculated!
It was like drawing a circle, and Grimm had obtained a coordinate within the circle. However, Grimm had been circling around outside the circle to search, so no matter how hard he searched, he would not be able to find the accurate coordinate.
It was also like a donkey cart with a piece of vegetable leaf hanging in front of it. No matter how the donkey that pulled the cart chased, it would never be able to catch the food that was right in front of it.
"Wonderful law, it seems that … the secret should be here!"
Under the Mask of Truth, Grimm's tri-colored eyes searched in all directions. After confirming that there was no valuable information, he suddenly took off the Mask of Truth, revealing a face full of vicissitudes of time. The dual-colored eyes accumulated erudition and wisdom, full of insight and calmness. It was an overlook that stood at the top of knowledge and law.
"In that case …"
Sitting on the ground, Grimm gradually let go of all distracting thoughts and entered a meditative state.
After about half an hourglass, Grimm, who was lying on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes. First, he opened the Book of Truth with a clattering sound. The Forgotten Runes combined with the light of the rainbow to form a seven-colored rune. Under Grimm's special arrangement, the rune sealed his body's sixth sense and touch.
Grimm muttered "Dissimilation Spell". The blue eyes that represented the water element and the crimson eyes that represented the fire element squirmed under Grimm's eyelids.
Suddenly!
With a "pop" sound, Grimm's two eyeballs actually grew arms and legs. They scrambled to crawl out of his eyes, leaving behind two pitch-black eye sockets that emitted the black smoke of the Origin of Darkness. It looked extremely terrifying.
"Hehe, next time, I'll be the left eye, and you'll be the right eye!"
"I don't want to. Grimm always sleeps with the right half of his body at the bottom. I don't want to be at the bottom."
The two eyeballs quarreled and fell into the palm of Grimm's outstretched palm.
"Woo …"
Immediately afterward, Grimm made a "woo" sound and spat out his tongue. This wriggling tongue was like a loach, swimming along the two eyeballs and falling into Grimm's palm.
"Hey, Grimm, next time when you wake up in the morning to clean your nostrils, can you not use your little finger directly? It's very disgusting!"
Grimm's nose shouted, but an ear that was crawling toward Grimm's palm laughed and said, "He can't hear it. If you don't believe me, you can call him an idiot."
With that said, both of Grimm's ears fell into Grimm's palm one after another.
"Call him an idiot? Scolding him is the same as scolding myself, you idiot. "
…
Having lost all his senses and even the distracting thoughts in his heart, Grimm, as a living being, had a perceptual barrier with the Endless World, which was equivalent to isolating and conserving his own energy. It was impossible for such a living being to survive in the balanced rules of the Endless World.
"According to the coordinates, if I use the current coordinates as a reference, I should retreat 725 steps."
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight …
"Squeak!"
"Ah …"
When Grimm completed the calculations in his heart, he opened his palm, and the eyeballs, nose, tongue, and ears returned to his body again. At the same time, the colorful runes that sealed the perception on the surface of his body also returned to the Book of Truth. Immediately, Grimm heard strange and horrified cries from all directions.
Not sensing any danger, Grimm didn't even open his eyes and put on the Mask of Truth. Then, his tri-colored eyes slowly opened!
There were terrified mud monsters everywhere, and they seemed to have a certain level of intelligence. They were a social group. This was a depression, and there were a few volcanoes around it. However, what was spewing out wasn't magma, but smooth mud that flowed down like a waterfall.
The sky was like a huge funnel that distorted space-time, and the space-time in all directions collapsed.
These mud monsters were not fixed in size, and they all escaped into the distance. However, not far from Grimm, there was a large mud monster that was holding a bamboo fishing rod. Its single eye was trembling as it stared at Grimm who was in the center of the pond.
Below Grimm was the center of a clear pond.
In the clear pond, there were endless white bones and a gray sky. Wasn't that the Dimensional Food Path's Backtracking World?!
"Please, please don't kill us. We are willing to sacrifice everything for you!"
The mud monster holding the bamboo rod tried to communicate with its will in horror.
It was merely a level-1 creature. Grimm floated above the pond and looked down at it indifferently. He said in a low voice, "What are you doing here?"
"We … we are in charge of saving those lost creatures at the bottom of the well according to the inheritance of our ancestors. We will pull them to the Boundless World and escape from the Bitter Well."
Pull?
Grimm stared at the fishing rod in the mud monster's hand with an expression of disbelief. Was he pulled into this black ball by something like this?!
Originally, he had even planned to use the Balance Lever to connect with the other party if the other party was a ruler or an existence that he couldn't defeat.
At this moment, the Light of the Balance Lever only had one ability. No matter how strong or weak the enemy was, as long as they were under the influence of the Boundless World's Balanced Law and didn't break away from the Balanced Law, once both parties reached an Equal Balance, then any damage suffered would be equivalent on the life essence of both parties. It wouldn't be offset by any special abilities or laws.
For example, if an Equal Balance lifeform with Grimm died, then Grimm would also die completely. He wouldn't be reborn because of the Nightmare Physique. This was Equal Balance.
However, at this moment …
Grimm couldn't believe it. He had once feared the black ball in the Dimensional Esophagus. He had even prepared here for more than 500 years to deal with the mastermind behind the scenes, but it turned out to be this group of mud monsters!
Saving lost creatures?
Perhaps these mud monsters didn't understand their situation yet. They were just creating a shelter in the Spectral World of despair.
Suddenly, Grimm remembered that in the Dimensional Esophagus, the black ball had suddenly appeared from the endless quagmire. It seemed to be somewhat similar to the environment here. Grimm frowned and asked, "What was the name of your ancestor?"
"Gujacques."
The mud monster's answer made Grimm's eyes widen in disbelief. This was actually the relic of the ancient civilization that Mickey Mouse had been pursuing in the Lamp of Time!
