Spirit Immortal

Chapter 570 The Allfather Strikes Back 2

Up in the stratosphere, Shin stood on top of the Azure Dragon’s Lord’s back, watching in horror as cracks formed throughout the entire continent. Dense light-green particles escaped from each one of the cracks, filling at atmosphere with an abundance of spiritual energies one, unlike anything Shin had experienced before. It was as if... The Terre Continent was losing all of the spiritual energy that it had accumulated for years now.

Shin felt like he was in a simulation, watching the world’s greatest disaster unfold in real-time. The darkness of space above his head had nothing on the overwhelming power that was erupting from the centre of the earth. And that wasn’t all... The light-green particles that emerged from the core of the continent seemed to trigger an innate response within Shin’s soul. No, it had sent the Celestial Dragon into a frenzy and Zishen into a maniacal state of panic.

"Earth... Fire... Lightning... Wind... Darkness... These elements are..." Being the patriarch of the Celestial River, Shin was far more attuned to the natural elements than anyone his age. He could instantly tell that the light-green particles that emerged from the Terre Continent boasted several different elements. However, the strange thing was... All of those elements weren’t the Celestial Dragon’s speciality. They were...

"Mmmm... The elements of the Terrestrial Dragon..." Zishen finished Shin’s sentence with a grim tone. "Mmmm... The Allfather... That lunatic..."

"Senior Zishen, do you know what’s happening?" Shin asked, his face still flushed with concern.

"Mmmm, I can roughly guess."

Before the age of humans, before the age of Spirits even. Elemental Titans ruled the entire realm. No living creature could hold a candle against the Titans, and they reigned supreme for millions of years. Amalgamations of power, the Titans were virtually invincible for aeons. However, the most powerful race in history, the Dragon race, sought out to change that. Generations of natural selection and millions of failed breeding experiments finally bore fruit at the end of the Titan era.

Two Dragons were born, dragons that surpassed any being that came before them. They possessed an innate ability once unheard of in the ancient era... The two dragons had the ability... To consume all Titans.

One by one, the overlords of the ancient world fell. Slain and eaten like livestock by the two mighty dragons. Each time the dragons ate one Titan, their elemental affinity would rise exponentially, and their powers would peak to levels never seen before. Eventually, the aged and dying Titans were all consumed by the relentless hunger of the two dragons.

The two dragons of myth... The two hegemons of the new age... Were precisely the Celestial and Terrestrial Dragon. However, even dragons had their own unique taste buds. The Celestial Dragon ate all the Titans that possessed the Water, Light, Mind, Space and Time elements while the Terrestrial Dragon preferred the Earth, Fire, Lightning, Wind and Darkness elements. Using the power of the Titans, they were unparalleled in their era, and no living creature on the planet could even lick their feet. However, as long as there was life... There would be death. No creature, no matter how powerful they were in the mortal realm, could outrun mother time.

Therefore, to escape their impending death, each one of the two Primordial Beasts decided to attempt to solidify their legacy to form their own kind of immortality. The Celestial Dragon looked to humanity and formed a pack with the Lady of Water, ensuring that it could revive somewhere down in within the River of Time. The Terrestrial Dragon, on the other hand, took a drastically different approach. It merged with the immense landmass that stood underneath it called home and collected even more smaller islands to form one single continent.

Its lifeforce, which was said to be the strongest in the world’s entire history, kept the single landmass in one shape, never separating even throughout the passage of time. In Memorium of the Terrestrial Dragon’s accomplishments, the single continent, the place where billions of humans called home... Was named the Terre Continent.

It was a homage to the ancient monarch, one of the two strongest beings to have ever graced the planet. It didn’t matter what natural disaster struck. Earthquakes, tornadoes, tsunamis... Nothing could destroy the colossal continent. Not even the war to end all wars that the humans had waged... The war that created three Spirit Immortals... Had an effect on the Terre Continent. However, on this day... History would be made.

The Terre Continent... Was breaking apart.

"Mmmm, the Allfather must have found a way to unbind the Terrestrial Dragon’s spiritual energy from the continent!" Zishen’s voice sounded apathetic, but his actions showed a different side. Anger and fear struck his gorgeous eyes as he carefully moved away from the dense particles of the ancient beast. The Terrestrial Dragon was, without a doubt, a legend in the mortal realm. To see that its legacy was spat upon by the Allfather, made the Azure Dragon Lord’s blood boil. However, he was also afraid. For someone to affect the power of the Terrestrial Dragon, even though it had been weakened... What kind of level would that person have reached? Rank 99 wasn’t going to cut it... The Allfather had to at least be... A step into the Immortal Realm.

"The Allfather can unbind the power holding the Terre Continent together?! How’s that possible?!" The same could be said about Shin. He frantically looked down at the continent being broken down, not willing to believe his eyes. However, the facts were laid bare. By some magic, the Allfather had done the impossible once again. Be it through his own power or by some contraption that Spirit Immortal Dream had left behind, the Allfather was now releasing the energy of the Terrestrial Dragon back to nature.

Zishen shook his head. "Mmmm, that monster sure is insane! Look at the plates moving!"

More and more dense particles flowed into the stratosphere, and it looked like a trillion fireflies were heading towards the endless void of space. Say what you would about the continents breaking apart, seeing the entire planet being filled with endless lights was, without a doubt, a breathtaking scene.

"S-Should we go down and help them?!" Shin screamed, worried about his immediate family and comrades that were still staying on the Terre Continent.

"Mmmm! It’s far too dangerous!" Zishen screamed back. "We must wait for the plates to stop moving first! Mmmm... If my guess is right, the only thing that the Allfather did was break the connection between the Terrestrial Dragon’s spiritual energy and the Terre Continent. Without the Terrestrial Dragon’s power binding them together, the tectonic plates are free to move as they please! There’s nothing that we can do but watch!"

Protecting Shin was Zishen’s utmost priority. The earth may be breaking apart, but the sky was still untouched. Not to mention, Shin’s Celestial Dragon was said to be the Hegemon of the Skies. It was far safer for Shin to remain airborne than to return back to the ground. Biting his nails, the only thing that Shin could do was to sit still and pray for the safety of his loved ones.

’It looks like the Lantis Republic isn’t that affected...’ Shin observed.

Originally, the Lantis Republic laid upon the Lantis Archipelago, a collection of islands that were separate from the vast Terre Continent. It wasn’t beholden to the Terrestrial Dragon’s mana and therefore, could escape the ordeal mostly unscathed. On the other hand, the other superpowers weren’t so lucky.

The first casualty to the change was surprisingly, the Uncharted Wilderness. As if listening to the calls of the oppressed Spirit Beasts, the fissures tore a line through the eastern part of the Uncharted Wilderness, separating the colossal landmass from the Terre Continent entirely. The Uncharted Wilderness was by far, one of the most magnificent rainforests to have ever existed. If not for its deadly terrain and an overabundance of Primordial Beasts, humanity would have conquered the land all for themselves to use for agriculture and overall development. However, the Uncharted Wilderness had stood the test of time and fought back any human armies, and with its separation from the Terre Continent, it would be even harder for armies to conquer the unknown land.

The fissures didn’t stop there, though. A humongous crack ran through the northeastern part of the Kori Federation, creating a considerable continent that was twice the size of Celestial Island. Almost immediately after the new continent was formed, multiple cracks created small islands that broke free from the western part of the Kori Federation, creating numerous small islands each one the size of a Baron’s land.

The Kori Federation wasn’t the only superpower to be affected by the recent change. The Himmel Empire once prided to be the premier nation in the south, now had been split into three parts. The region where the Capital stood became one colossal landmass. The Highgarden Duchy to the southeast was also starting to split off, coming ever closer towards the Lantis Republic and finally, the western regions where Aldrich’s Keep and Frie Mountain were, became the final continent to break free.

All in all, the once singular Terre Continent, was now split into six massive parts. The Uncharted Wilderness became the first new continent to be born. The Kori Federation divided in two, with one landmass being four times bigger than the other one. The Himmel Empire had broken into three near equal parts.

No... There was one more split... One more crack in within the Terre Continent... And that was...

"The Neutral Lands..." Shin gasped as he watched ardently at the centre of the once might Terre Continent. The Neutral Lands, the place where the Alliance Headquarters and the Black Masks’ Tree of Darkness laid... Had split off into its own continent, literally making it the middle point of the entire world.

The roots of the Allfather’s power had spread so deep that it could even rip the continent from its core! How could anyone have believed that?! He had even made the Neutral Lands into its own continent!

"T-That... T-That... How’s this possible?!"

"Mmmm... My Prince... Stay calm for now..." Zishen wanted to soothe Shin’s nerves, but the Azure Dragon Lord was in no shape to mentor others. There was a slight tremor in his voice as he remained petrified at the Allfather’s power, something that had never been seen before in the history of the world.

"Mmmm... We must be patient... To at least wait... Until the dust has settled..."

"..." Shin didn’t answer Zishen. All he did, was to helplessly watch as the Terre Continent, the most iconic region of history... Faced its final hours.
