Otherworld Bone Dragon Operation Guide

Chapter 363 Eden
As night fell, after dinner, everyone continued their research on the ruins.

Zijin discovered another collapsed mural, this time completely destroyed by geological changes.

She summoned Su Ming and said, “The spell ‘Reverse Object Reversal’ seems to be quite useful.” She pointed to this area and said, “I’ll teach you how to practice it in this area.”

Su Ming did not refuse.

The structure of the Rewind spell is quite complex, but Su Ming is no longer the novice he once was; his strength has improved significantly. Under Zi Jin's hands-on guidance, he attempted several times and finally succeeded in constructing a complete spell formula model.

“Very good, now direct your spells at this collapsed wall!” Violet instructed, as she herself had already gathered the light of her spell and set up the imprinting array, ready to record the scene of the past at any time.

Su Ming followed his instructions, raising his hands to the sides and concentrating his mind to guide his magic. However, the condensed magical light did not shoot steadily toward the broken wall as he had expected. Instead, it rippled and spread uncontrollably, like a stone thrown into water.

"The spell failed!" He chuckled self-deprecatingly, preparing to ask Zi Jin for guidance. "It seems I haven't grasped the essence yet. Explain it to me in more detail, and I'll try again..."

But before he could finish speaking, he realized that there was complete silence around him.

Su Ming subconsciously turned his head to look, only to see that Zi Jin's figure had become blurry and indistinct. Her expression was frozen in shock, as if she wanted to reach out her hand, but in Su Ming's eyes, her movements became extremely slow, as if she were sinking into a quagmire.

Su Ming turned around abruptly, and the scene before him had drastically changed! The collapsed wall instantly returned to its original state, now covered with densely packed, clearly defined, brightly colored patterns and obscure characters.

The Rift Clan's writing system has developed considerable complexity and expressive power; it cannot be understood from pictures alone without careful interpretation.

Above the mural, the huge ouroboros totem, symbolizing the gods, suddenly opened its originally closed eyes without warning!

Those were eyes so deep they seemed capable of devouring souls. In an instant, an irresistible and terrifying suction force forcibly dragged all of Su Ming's spiritual power into them!

The surrounding scenery shattered and disintegrated with a deafening roar! Suddenly, a cacophony of noise erupted around me!

Su Ming was shocked to find himself in a completely different time and space: the cave walls were intact, covered with primitive rock paintings, and countless huge torches crackled and burned, illuminating the entire cave as if it were daytime.

Thousands of Rift Clan members, dressed in ancient attire, were gathered around the ancient altar where he stood, engrossed in a frenzied and primitive collective ritual! They were barefoot, dancing and leaping wildly, stomping their feet on the ground with all their might, creating a deafening roar.

Could this be... a recurrence of a scene from ten thousand years ago?
Su Ming sensed something and suddenly looked up at the extremely high place in the void. He immediately perceived that there seemed to be an indescribable great being looking down at the tiny altar and crowd below from an unreachable dimension.

Is it a being from the realm of Eden? Such a condescending, overlooking posture... is it in a higher position?

A clear realization suddenly arose in Su Ming's mind: there are differences in energy levels between spaces!
The energy level of the Eden Realm is significantly higher than that of the Taiya Realm!

For objects from the Eden realm, entering Teya is like falling from a high waterfall into a deep pool. Conversely, objects from the Teya plane cannot simply compensate for the enormous energy difference required to travel upstream into Eden.

This is the fundamental reason for the Rift Clan's one-way teleportation array! The next moment, a tiny point of light was pushed into the entrance of the spatial passage in the void. Immediately afterwards, on this side of the Teya plane, a colossal dragon, as large as a mountain range, crashed down like an out-of-control meteorite!

The dragon had clearly suffered unimaginable trauma the moment it passed through the passage. Its enormous size had been severely injured in many places within the extremely twisted, unstable, and narrow passage; three of its limbs had been completely removed, leaving only a lone, scarred hind paw.

Even so, this dying behemoth still unleashed a frenzied slaughter on the terrified Rift Clan! In an instant, sharp screams and the sound of bones shattering intertwined, corpses littered the ground, and blood flowed like rivers.

Something even more terrifying appeared at the other end of the passage. Su Ming involuntarily looked up—an indescribably enormous, indifferent eye occupied the entire sky at the other end of the Eden Realm! It was boundless, yet seemed to exist in an infinitely distant dimension, its gaze as cold as an abyss.

In those eyes was an absolute indifference to all things, and an extreme sense of detachment as if observing dust and ants.

Just from that gaze, Su Ming felt as if his soul was being torn apart, and a violent headache struck like a tsunami! His vision suddenly went black, and he completely lost consciousness.

****
Violet noticed the anomaly immediately.

"Reverse Reversal" is a universal spell. Regardless of the element used to drive it, the effect is largely the same, with only minor differences in the light or image clarity.

Su Ming's conceptual-level magic is indeed different from pure dark energy, but at most it is just that the color is lighter.

However, this time, his spatial power resonated strangely with a certain energy remaining in the ruins!
The change came suddenly. The energies that had been stirred up surged and swept over. Violet reacted very quickly and tried to set up a barrier in front of Su Ming, but she was horrified to find that the magic shield was useless and was instantly penetrated.

The energy swept past without even causing a ripple.

What level of power is this?!
Fortunately, the "Dawn and Dusk Bracelet" on Su Ming's wrist suddenly glowed, and a thin but tough energy membrane appeared, barely blocking the strange impact!
However, the impact did not stop! As the price for resisting, the Dawn and Dusk Bracelet was frantically draining the magic power from Su Ming's body!
If this continues, he'll be drained dry first!

Violet had a sudden inspiration. Since the "Dawn and Dusk Bracelet" could block it, she immediately raised her hand and summoned the Divine Blessing Scepter!

A pure white and sacred staff materialized in his palm, and golden light suddenly spread out.

"May the divine protect you!"

This time it finally worked; with the scepter's blessing, the all-pervasive attack was finally blocked.

"Ugh!" Violet groaned, a metallic taste rising in her throat. This energy was not only chilling to the bone, but also possessed a penetrating power that ignored all defenses! Even with the Divine Favor Scepter sharing the impact, the aftershocks still felt like a heavy blow to her.

This energy is unprecedented. Could it be a god-level existence? Zi Jin pondered to herself.

As a Saint-level mage, Zi Jin's magical reserves far surpassed those of Su Ming. After a brief moment, the inexplicably surging power finally subsided completely.
