Although Ancient One had lost the right to use the Stone of Time, she still existed in the main world, which meant that although the situation was deteriorating every day, the barrier that separated the main world and the Mysterious World still did not fail and was still stubbornly working.
The formation of the Dark Sky was almost exactly the same as the birth of the hybrids hiding in various parts of the world. It was the same method of spiritual possession. The only difference was that the method used by the shadowbeasts seemed to be more mysterious. This allowed the carrier of the Dark Sky to not experience any weakening even when it was active in the present world. But as a matter of fact, there were definitely more than just benefits. The downside of this matter was that:
Black Sky must maintain contact with the Shadow Realm at all times in order to continuously obtain power from the remaining Shadow Beast. Of course, in Prinster's words, it was symbolic, which sounded like a very high-end word. In short, this shortcoming was simply fatal to the current Erica of Black Sky.
"Bang!"
A heavy punch knocked Erica, who was trying to avoid it, to the ground. The rune chain from Kamar-Taj was tightly grasped by the four ninja turtles, fixing Erica in place. Like an accomplice helping a villain, Saber's fists hit Erica's body one by one.
This strange feeling made the turtles a little uncomfortable, but they were not really idiots. They also knew that this tyrannical method was also a last resort.
"You're using someone else's body to show off …"
Saber lifted Erica from the ground and lifted her into the air. He looked at the pair of still indifferent eyes and lowered his voice. "You're disgusting, just like a parasite, but now you're trapped. You disgusting worm, what are you going to use to stop me?"
The ring of flame in his eyes lit up again, and he looked straight into her eyes.
"Your domain has opened the door for me!"
"Hum!"
Under the radiance of the Eyes of Penance, Seiber once again felt like he was squeezing into a sponge filled with water. It was very narrow, as if his will was being forcefully stretched. However, this time, it was no longer as unshakable as before. After a difficult breakthrough, Seiber felt like he had entered a new world as he suddenly jumped into the soul of the beast.
But to his surprise, this place was not a dead and chaotic place as he had imagined. It was more like another world, a place … that looked like a European castle and fields under the sun.
If one had to describe it, then one could only say that this place was like an idyll.
This strong contrast made Saber look back at the place where he came from, but he could not find the connecting entrance. There was only another quiet and peaceful scenery.
"What the f * ck!"
Saber took a deep breath. He had no time to waste. Princeton could only seal the body of the Shadowbeast for less than a minute, so he did not have much time to waste on thinking. He rushed to the house in the field ahead, which was the only building nearby. He broke the door and saw Catherine, who was holding a piece of dried fish and putting it into her mouth. Her mouth was covered in a variety of colors, like a little kitten.
Finally, the person sitting in front of her was someone Seiber didn't expect.
"Who are you? Why did you break into my house? "
The girl who looked like Erica slammed the table and stood up. She quickly shielded the confused Catherine behind her and looked warily at Saber, who did not look like a good person. The latter was stunned for a moment. He saw his hands, starting from the fingertips, crumbling rapidly, which meant that the Shadowbeast was expelling him from this world. The monster was about to wake up!
"There's no time to explain!"
Seber rushed towards the two girls and knocked them out with a punch each. He carried them on his shoulders and the house began to collapse. Seber had no choice but to carry them out of the house. When he rushed out of the house, he could feel the pressure from his soul. He couldn't help but shake his head. In the next moment, his consciousness seemed to have been thrown into a sewer. He spun crazily and didn't know how many times he spun in a second. Finally, his consciousness returned to his body. His legs gave way and he fell to the ground.
He stretched out his trembling hand, and a small orange-yellow shard shone in his palm.
He sensed Catherine's presence from it. He held it tightly. Opposite him, Black Sky rubbed her head and stood up. Saber quickly grabbed the war hammer and pounced on her. But in the next moment, a trace of panic that did not belong to a Shadowbeast appeared on Black Sky's face. She stretched out her hands and shook frantically.
"Don't! Don't hit me! It's me! Erica! It's me! "
"You've recovered?"
Suspicion flashed in Seiber's eyes. However, in the next moment, Master Sprint's voice sounded.
"The statue! The statue has recovered! "
Seiber turned around abruptly and saw that the statue of the Chaos Beast, which was only two-thirds of its original size, had been restored. When Seiber saw the eyes of the giant elephant, he saw a flash of light in the statue's stone eyes. The next moment, the entire Shadow Realm shook violently. A black halo flashed in front of everyone's eyes as if it was the end of the world.
In the flash, everyone fell to the cold ground. Saber looked up and saw that the walls were covered in black runes. Even the stones under them were covered in runes.
"This is the basement!"
Erwin pushed his glasses and recovered from his demonized state. He looked around and said with certainty, "This is the basement. The size is right. I can't be wrong!"
"Unbelievable!"
The Big Mouse Ninja stroked his beard and whispered, "The Shadow Realm has appeared eight times in history, and every time it appeared, it would cause great suffering. It has never disappeared on its own like this time … This, this is really unexpected."
He then turned his gaze to the girl lying on the ground.
"And Black Sky … This is probably the only Black Sky who survived the eight times."
Saber did not care about this. He reached out and handed Catherine's soul fragment to Robin, then turned and left without a word. Robin looked at his back and shouted.
"Saber, where are you going?"
"I'm going to … confirm something, something very, very important!"
A moment later, in the New York Sanctum, Strange looked at Saber with a pained expression. He said weakly, "It's not that I don't want you to go, but you know the rules. Unless you're a Chosen One, Kamar-Taj can only go once in her life … You gave up that opportunity! You gave it up yourself! "
Saber was unmoved. He pointed to the ground under his feet.
"Then let Ancient One come!"
"That's even more impossible."
Strange sighed, "Mage Supreme is currently recuperating from her injuries. You know how serious her injuries are. She won't come all the way here just because of a single sentence from you."
"Tell her that I'll only wait for her for five minutes!"
Saber sat on a chair, lit a cigarette, and waved it in front of Strange's eyes.
"You know me, Steve … Do you think I'm an unreasonable person?"
"You really are!"
This was what Strange wanted to say, but he held back in the end. He shook his head, "Okay, okay … You're the boss, I'm really afraid of you."
After saying that, Strange disappeared in the light of teleportation. Saber smoked in an uncharacteristic silence, not saying a word, and his expression was very serious, as if he was thinking about a very important question. After a few minutes, a magnificent light appeared in front of Saber. He looked around and found that the place where he was had also become a starry sky. Opposite him, Ancient One was still wearing the robe, with his back to him, and seemed to be reading a book.
"I heard that you were looking for me?"
Ancient One's voice was very pleasant, but the sharpness contained in it was undisguised. "I should have used this time to sort out my injuries, but you interrupted me, Saber. I don't think the relationship between us is good enough, so you'd better pray that your reason is official enough."
Saber took a deep breath and flicked out the cigarette in his hand.
"Do you still remember what you told me about those stones? Especially the most mysterious one, it is said that the holder can manipulate souls, control the undead army, and create a massacre in an instant, but there is a greedy soul in the gem, and there is actually a hidden world entrance inside the gem … "
"Hmm?"
Ancient One's flipping of the pages paused for a moment, and Saber, who had always been fearless, said softly.
"I might have … found it."
"Bang!"
The book in Ancient One's hand that looked like a real antique turned into flying ash in an instant. Obviously, Sorcerer Supreme was also shocked by this sentence. She turned her head, and her beautiful eyes shone with dignity as she looked at Saber.
"You have to know … This is not a joke."
Saber nodded.
"I know, that's why I came to you immediately. When I fought the Shadow Beast, I weakened it and entered its soul. I might be the first person in history to do so, but I saw it. It was really as you said, an idyllic world. Most importantly, the Shadow Beast was cold, dead, and emotionless, but it was extremely greedy for souls."
At this point, Saber paused.
"But I didn't see any traces of the gem. The statue in the shadow, the stone statue, was very ordinary. I didn't see anything special about it."
"You mean, the beast? The ancient demon that the Hand worships? "
Ancient One looked a little surprised. She closed her eyes and thought for a moment, then said in a low voice, "If your guess is correct, no … from your description, there is a high chance that it is true, then I need to go to Kunlun.
"The earliest legend about the Shadow Beast came from Mrs. Gao, and she is already dead. However, the Crane Mother should still be in this world. If I can find her, I should be able to get some clues."
A smile appeared on Sorcerer Supreme's face.
"Very good, very good, there's finally a direction. Leave this to me, Saber … No matter what the result is, if your appointment with Domam is up and I'm still alive … I will help you."
She said solemnly to Saber.
"That's my promise."
"Then … what if you die?"
Saber heard a hint of something bad in Ancient One's words. He frowned and looked at Sorcerer Supreme in front of him. "Why did you suddenly bring up this topic? Did you predict something?"
"I just … sigh, I'm just preparing for a rainy day."
Ancient One wanted to explain, but when the words came to her mouth, she just shook her head. She nodded to Saber, and her figure became illusory.
"Grow up quickly, you, and this world … The storm is coming."
When Saber returned to the manor in Manhattan, it was already midnight. He first went to Catherine's room to see the little girl. The latter's soul had been repaired, but because she had been away from the body for too long, she now needed sufficient rest. Saber looked at the smile on Catherine's face, and a silent smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He stretched out his hand and flicked the little girl's forehead.
"It's all because of you …"
With that, he leaned over, kissed her gently, and then left the room. A few minutes later, he lay down on his bed, but the moment he lay down, a black shadow rushed onto him. Saber didn't panic. He just calmly looked at Erica lying on top of him in front of him. The girl was still dressed as she was when she was rescued, and she was as fast as a black panther hunting for food.
"In the middle of the night, a girl like you dressed like this and appeared in a strange man's bed …"
Saber smiled. "So, is the encounter I've been looking forward to finally here?"
"Shh!"
Erica made a shushing gesture to him, and he whispered in her ear,
"Our game isn't over yet … Baby, I'm just here to thank you for saving me … That's all."
Saber shrugged.
"But thank you needs a gift! Did you bring one? "
Erica straightened up, exposing her most beautiful body arc to Saber's eyes. She reached out and turned off the light, and her voice became blurred in the darkness.
"Of course, I brought the best …"
