Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 597 Cliffhanger

This time, countless more lines of power sprouted from the Grandmaster’s arms, all which brought the power of the new seals that he just unleashed.

These seals brought new and different effects on Alex, who just stood still as he received them head-on.

"Fizz..."

The second seal that the Grandmaster unleashed, which was promptly called the ETNROPIC PATHWAY, caused all the substances and materials around Alex to break down in the atomic level.

No matter what kind of materials they are or how sturdy they are, all of them broke down in the presence of ENTROPIC PATHWAY, as the laws of entropy was absolute here.

Even Alex’s current body was slowly breaking down too, and he had to do his best to not be destroyed quickly.

Because of this, Alex was rendered immobile again.

"Hahaha! Under the mighty presence of entropy, there is nothing in this world that can stay stable! Everything, no matter how powerful they are, will always be destroyed in the end!" As if he had already forgotten the failure of his first seal, the Grandmaster went back to his cheerful mood as he saw Alex’s immobilization again.

"Hahaha, how about that, Traveler Alex? Can you still break my ENTROPIC PATHWAY? Hmph, I don’t think so!"

"...."

If this seal was the only one that had its effect work on Alex, then the Grandmaster will already be happy enough. However, there are still 4 more seals that he had unleashed, and to the delight of the Grandmaster, these seals seem to have worked too!

The Grandmaster’s 3rd Seal, which was called as the Ancestral Summons, seem to pulse with the power of Time as it rained down its might on Alex.

"Hong~"

An ancient castle, one that can be praised for its sheer beauty, was summoned out of nowhere, which then proceeded to press down on Alex like a falling mountain.

This castle emanated an ancient aura out of it, as if it was something that was made in the past. This aura did not weaken the castle however, as it seemed to have even boosted its power!

With this boost, the ancient castle continued its assault on Alex, which just added more pressure on him.

"My ANCESTRAL SUMMONS is a seal that summons a powerful object in the past, and uses that object to suppress my enemies. In your case, Traveler Alex, I summoned the almighty castle of the Blight King." The Grandmaster said, with his bright eyes intently watching Alex’s current situation.

"’The objects summoned by my ANCESTRAL SUMMONS are not as strong as the original, but for now, the ancient castle that I summoned is enough to suppress you! After all, the castle of the Blight King was originally used to suppress Chaos itself! With that kind of power, even its duplicate is enough to seal you!"

"...."

Alex looked like he wanted to say something about this, but it was as this point that the 4th Seal landed on him.

"Shula!"

The 4th Seal, which was promptly called as the NETHER PRISON, was a seal that conjured a dark, metallic cage which Alex quickly found himself inside in. Chains then sprouted out of the cage’s body, which bounded Alex’s wrists, ankles, and neck.

This cage emanated the pure power of darkness and evil itself, qualities that the chains also displayed.

"Hongla!"

Once the chains had properly restrained Alex, countless dark runes glowed on their bodies, all which began to fly towards Alex like flies.

Each rune carried a heavy and depressing feeling on them, making anyone feel lethargic just by seeing them. This feeling intensifies the more runes are seen, and this effect seem to be greater if one touches the runes!

With this kind of danger, nobody will just touch these runes out of curiosity.

But right now, the chain-bound Alex was about to be swarmed by these runes, which might potentially bring his life into a greater danger!

"The people who lived in the NETHER REALM has the power to enslave beings and use them as their servants. They do that through their ’NETHER RUNES’, which contain the power to make any sentient being submissive. These runes are so powerful, that even I was affected by it." Like a chatterbox that won’ stop speaking, the Grandmaster continued his monologue, even when Alex appeared to be overwhelmed by his seals already.

"Fortunately for me, I was able to get free from these runes, and I was able to even study them. That led to my creation of NETHER PRISON, a seal which once successful, can turn its targets into my willing slaves!"

"..."

"Hahaha, now do you see it, Traveler Alex? You’re about to be my slave, just because you let me attack you! You idiot! You should have run away when you can!"

The Grandmaster, whose name was treated with respect and reverence by many in the Traveler’s World, now looked like a madman as he seemed to be perversely happy from what was happening to Alex. It was as if his cold, calculative nature from before was just a ruse, and his current bloodthirsty persona was his real attitude.

This change made the Grandmaster appear much more terrifying than he was before, although the man himself seem to not care about it.

"Boom!"

It was at this moment that the 5th Seal fell down on Alex, which also unleashed its effects on him.

This seal was called the CELESTIAL EDICT, and its effects appear to be straightforward.

A 12-winged angel was summoned by this seal, which proceeded to descend on Alex like a god.

The angel flapped its wings as it descended with considerable force, stirring winds that had the power to demolish nearby buildings.

On the angel’s hands, a scepter was present, which seem to emanate with the power of the Holy Order Realm.

"You are a sinner! Thus you must be punished!" The angel shouted as it pointed its scepter at Alex. "You are a sinner! You must be punished!"

"Shula~"

At the instant that this scepter was pointed, large amounts of Holy Energy poured out of the angel’s body, all which began to fall down on Alex like a torrential rain.

"Hiss..." Alex’s skin, which should be hard to damage these days, began to boil and melt when the Holy Energy made contact with it.

It was as if Alex’s skin was wax, and the Holy Energy was a brightly lit candle being hovered near to it.

"Hiss..."

This effect began to make Alex look like a melting statue, something that made those who saw him feel sick.

But to make matters worse, this effect seemed to have synergized well with the power of the ENTROPIC PATHWAY.

Now, the rate of destruction on Alex’s body has doubled, making it almost impossible for him to heal himself.

"Hahaha! I know all about your power as an Abyss Monster, so I knew that my CELESTIAL EDICT will be effective on you! After all, Holy Energy and Abyss Energy are two energies that are not mean to be together!" The Grandmaster cackled, as he appeared to be genuinely pleased with Alex’s suffering.

"If an Abyss Monster manages to contaminate an Angel with its Abyss Energy, that angel will be corrupted, and will die in pain. However, if it was the Angel who manages to contaminate the Abyss Monster first, then it will be that Abyss Monster who will die!"

"Hahaha, and that is the same thing that is happening to you, Traveler Alex!"

"..."

"Actually this CELESTIAL EDICT of mine is used to suppress those with great sins, as they can be affected by Holy Energy too. I can’t afford to let them be scot-free after all."

"..."

"If you were just a normal Traveler, Traveler Alex, then this seal of mine might not work on you. But you have affiliated yourself with the Abyss Realm, so prepare to receive great pain from this!"

"..."

"Oh, you can’t talk now, aren’t you, Traveler Alex? Well, with all the seals I placed on you, for you to be mute is just to be expected."

".."

"Oh, what should do now again? Should I torture you now? Wait, I’m still not done here. There’s still one seal left, so you must experience it too!"

"Boom!"

Alex’s current state should have been enough to make the Grandmaster stop attacking, but since he had already released his seals, he was unable to stop them from landing.

The first 5 seals had already been unleashed on Alex, and now it was the turn of the 6th and final seal to reveal its power.

"Hong long long~"

The 6th Seal, which was called by the Grandmaster as the Cosmic Descent, was a seal that sucked the power of the Astral Space and used it to suppress Alex.

"Boom boom boom!"

The ever-ethereal and mysterious Astral Energy of the Astral Space pressed down on Alex with the pressure comparable to that of countless stars, rendering him much more immobile compared to before.

His body, which was standing straight as a pole, went back to a hunched position from the addition of the COSMIC DESCENT, and it even appeared like he was about to be smashed on the floor.

This is how frightening the suppressive pressure that came from the 6th seal, and the Grandmaster seemed to have known it too.

"The last world that I was in was a world which had its residents practice manipulating Astral Energy. The way that they used it in so many ways was so fascinating, that I immediately wanted to learn it." The Grandmaster muttered. "Now, because of my talents, I was really not that good in manipulating Astral Energy. But with my expertise on sealing, I was able to create a seal which uses the power of Astral Energy to seal my enemies!"

"And that, Traveler Alex, is what you are experiencing now!"

"...."

"Hehehe, so how does it feel to be suppressed by five more seals, Traveler Alex? Do you now regret taunting me?" With all his 5 seals doing their work, the Grandmaster was naturally pleased, and he did not let this moment pass by as he continued taunting Alex.

"..."

"Tsk, I was really angry at you, Traveler Alex, since you’re one of the rare persons who managed to throw off my plans. I really don’t like people disturbing my well-crafted scenarios, and as long as they’re alive, I will not be appeased!"

"..."

"That is the reason why I look this unrefined now, Traveler Alex. As long as you are not beaten up by me, I will never be able to feel good. So please, just stay still there and let me beat you up. Oh well, even if you try to move, you won’t be able to do anything, hehehe..."

The Grandmaster approached Alex with his hands raised, making it obvious what he plans to do next.

With Alex now suppressed by his seals, the Grandmaster if free to make Alex suffer a lot. As for what this suffering-inducing techniques could be, it is up to Grandmaster to apply it.
