I alone am the Honoured One!-Chapter 791: Ah shit, here we go again [8]
Chapter 791: Ah shit, here we go again [8]
"...The Fateless One."
Huh?
The soft, ethereal voice cut through the silence of the barren land, carried by the ever-present spatial wind.
Zhao Tian, who had been lying on the flat stone, jolted slightly, and his eyes snapped open as a faint ripple stirred the air.
He blinked, pushing himself upright ’Eleanor?’
As he stood up, the familiar shimmer of white light began forming in the distance... an elegant wisp of soul energy drifting towards them.
At this time, Yan Zijin also heard that voice and hurriedly stood up "Tian."
Looking at the soul shard flying towards them, she was dumbfounded.
Zhao Tian dashed forward to talk first, as he doesn’t want Eleanor to blabber in front of Yan Zijin.
"Eleanor."
Huh? Eleanor was surprised to see Zhao Tian easily recognizing her and looked at him in confusion.
But then she realized and muttered, "Seems like you have met another one of my shards from a rupture."
Zhao Tian gave a nod and spoke "Yeah, so please stay silent. I know what to do, and Eleanor and I already have a deal."
Yan Zijin quickly caught up and looked at the soul shard "Is this the Guardian Spirit you were talking about, Tian?"
Yan Zijin asked with excitement in her voice, and she also realized Zhao Tian wasn’t lying when he said that we have survived the rupture.
Guardian spirit? Eleanor glanced at Zhao Tian, and he gave a faint nod.
Elanor was quite amused, as she didn’t know what deal her other self had struck with Zhao Tian.
The soul shard shimmered faintly "I am."
Yan Zijin was relieved to hear this "We can finally leave this damned place?"
Zhao Tian smiled dryly and looked at Eleanor "Do you know a place where the spatial energy isn’t so densely concentrated? A stable point, even temporarily. If I can find such a spot, I should be able to manipulate the energy and tear open a channel."
"Through that, we all can leave and you too."
Her glow dimmed momentarily "You... can manipulate the spatial threads here?"
With a nod, he replied "I’ve been preparing for this ever since we entered the rupture. I’ve been studying the patterns, the density shifts, and the current flows. I can do it. I just need you to point me in the right direction."
Hearing this, Eleanor looked at him suspiciously, but seeing his friendly demeanor, she came to terms that her other self had done a good job.
’This is my chance too... if I stayed here any longer, I don’t know when will my soul shard fade away.’
She spoke "I have been roaming around here for years, and it is really a surprise to see you here, Fateless One."
"And yeah, I know such a place where you can try your luck."
"There’s a fold in the far western expanse... a hollow between three collision zones. It isn’t stable for long, but it thins the spatial layers enough for someone like you to attempt what you’re planning."
Zhao Tian sighed and glanced at Yan Zijin "Master, you go and bring that woman."
Yan Zijin hurriedly nodded her head "Ok."
She dashed toward the unconscious woman lying several meters away on the edge of the cliff platform.
As she left Eleanor looked at Zhao Tian in intrigue "Hmm.. I can sense the Maverick blood in you, but there is also another bloodline with you."
Zhao Tian nodded his head as he had already heard this from the other Eleanor "Yeah..."
Eleanor looked at him deeply "No... not two. Is it three?"
Huh? Zhao Tian was dumbfounded "Three bloodlines in my body?"
He thought Maverick bloodline should be from his mother and the second bloodline should be from his father.
Now, there is another bloodline?
Is that the Ravenscroft bloodline?
Eleanor looked at him deeply "Your Maverick blood is not as pure as Lilith Maverick, the First Honoured One."
Zhao Tian blinked ’That’s the First Honoured One’s name? Lilith...’
Eleanor muttered in a faint voice "I still remember her face, the same white hair as you and those gentle and fierce blue eyes..."
Hearing this, Zhao Tian’s eyes narrowed ’Then my mother inside me, she said she is not Maverick and her name is Raphaela Celeste Ravenscroft.’
’And my name is Vester Alden Ravenscroft.’
(A/n: This happened in Ch: 582 and 583)
’But the features of first Honoured one matches with my mother, who is inside me, so my mother is the First Honoured One after all?’
Zhao Tian spoke "Seems like you have some memories that Eleanor was missing."
She spoke in an indifferent tone "Hmm... true. Lilith’s slashes not only cleaved the space, it cleaved my soul, my memories, and my body."
"The Honoured Ones are really unpredictable."
At this time, Yan Zijin came there carrying the unconscious woman in her hand "Tian, let’s move."
He nodded his head, and Eleanor’s soul shard floated up in the air.
Zhao Tian and Yan Zijin quickly dashed up in the air following the soul shard.
"Follow me... Stay close. The path I take will wind through eddies in the spatial currents.
"One wrong step and you may be torn apart by the folds of this place."
Without further delay, she drifted forward.
They followed after the soul shard, streaks of light cutting through the dusky, torn sky.
The surroundings were as unnatural as ever; fragments of broken terrain floated like islands adrift in an ocean of chaos.
Spatial tears twisted like giant scars in the air; some closed, others slowly pulsing open.
They flew for what felt like an eternity.
Sometimes, it felt like seconds passed. Sometimes, hours. The mind couldn’t trust its own sense of time.
Zhao Tian didn’t know how long they had been flying.
He kept his focus on Eleanor’s glow ahead of them.
Her soul shard weaved through impossible geometries in the air, sometimes diving into narrow gaps between floating shards of rock, sometimes vanishing momentarily before reappearing a few meters away through a ripple in space.
Zhao Tian had to manipulate small threads of spatial energy around him to stabilize their passage.
Even now, he felt pressure building in his meridians, like the space is trying to crush him with every breath.
Behind him, Yan Zijin was silent, though he could feel the quiet strain in her aura.
She held the woman tightly, protecting her with a thin barrier of astral energy.
Zhao Tian exhaled and spoke, "How much further?"
Eleanor’s voice replied "Not far. We’re close to the Hollow Verge... a place where three spatial rivers intersect. The pressure there is unstable, but for a moment, they cancel each other out. That’s where you’ll have your chance."
Zhao Tian narrowed his eyes "How long will the calm last?"
"Minutes. Maybe less. Once it begins to shift, the hollow collapses and becomes a singularity. You’ll have to act fast."
Yan Zijin spoke for the first time during the flight, "Can you really do it?"
Eleanor was silent for a second before she replied "It’s about space energy. If anyone can... it’s the Fateless One."
’That name again.’ Yan Zijin forwned slightly and looked at Zhao Tian.
’Seems like they know each other very well. Tian indeed is quite mysterious...’
Zhao Tian focused, stretching out his senses, brushing against the chaotic spatial currents.
Then, he felt it.
Eleanor’s shard brightened suddenly, and she slowed her pace.
"We’re here."
Before them there is a vast, chasmic plain where the sky twisted unnaturally.
Three streams of raw space-energy flowed into a central point in the distance like rivers converging into a whirlpool of unstable light.
The Hollow Verge.
Eleanor turned toward Zhao Tian.
"This is your only chance."
