Re:Immortal

Chapter 108

"Master, something feels strange." Said Lu Lu with a frown as we looked at her surroundings.

The trio had made it to 'The underworld' without encountering any sort of problems whatsoever, which was a surprise since they were prepared to meet some of 'The hunters', yet the entire trip was eerily quiet and uneventful.

There was no sign of activities ever since they arrived into the nether realm. This would have been a pleasant surprise if not for the fact that an inter-plane war was on the verge of starting. The fact that they could discover no one could only mean bad things.

"Let's hurry." Replied Omis, his face betraying a hint of anxiousness he was feeling. Dina on the other hand had a frown on her face as she observed their surroundings.

"I hate 'The underworld'." She muttered under her breath, to which Omis paid her no heed.

Not long after, the bodies started to appear. The closer they got to the 'Immortal' city the more bodies they started to come across.

Omis and his group had first gone down to check the dead bodies, all of which seemed to belong to 'Originals' each with various cultivation levels, the highest being a Profound Immortal, with the lowest being an Ascension cultivator.

The creepiest part was that all corpses had their eyes dugout, their expressions were twisted in pain which was forever etched on their faces.

"This one is the same as well Master." Said, Lu Lu A she turned another dead body around.

"It looks like they dugout their eyes with their own hands." Said Dina as she examined the scratch marks on the corpse's face.

Hearing what she said caused a shudder to run down Lu Lu's spine before she asked in confusion.

"Why would anyone do that."

"I think the better question would be, what did they see that made them go so far to that." Solemnly replied Omis.

To that, Dina seriously nodded while Lu Lu had a concerned expression as she looked at Omis, seeing her troubled face, he flashed her a wide smile before patting her head.

"Don't worry, it'll be alright." He reassured.

*****

"We should be arriving soon." Noted Dina as the group came closer to the city.

Omis who was leading them suddenly raised his hand calling for a stop, as the trio stood unmoving in the air. Lu Lu looked at him with a puzzled expression, yet he spoke before she could say anything.

"The city has fallen." He said in a grave tone.

Hearing that, Dina's eyes widened, as Lu Lu's gaze hardened before she asked.

"Your orders, Master?"

"The barrier is down, it seems the fight was over a long time ago. We proceed with caution." He ordered, to which Lu Lu gave a firm nod while Dina still had a blank expression on her face as if unable to believe what he said.

"The city has fallen? But that should be impossible," she murmured under her breath unconvinced.

Their worries proved to be true when the trio reached the place where the city was once at. After the last fight against 'The hunters', a new cliff was created on its outskirts, yet what greeted them was an entirely different scene.

The entire land was caved in as if it was hit by a giant asteroid that leveled the whole city with its surrounding area.

"What the-," Asked Dina, as she gazed at the massive crater below.

"God realm. This is the work of a God realm cultivator." Answered Omis.

Turning around to look at him, Lu Lu asked with a grave look.

"From my knowledge, wasn't 'The Immortal' protected by an 'Original' God realm, powered by a formation of normal God realms?"

"That's right. Which makes this," he said while pointing at the crater below before continuing.

"All the more terrifying."

"I see no corpses." Added Lu Lu as she scanned their surroundings.

"There are two possible answers, either everyone was pulverized leaving nothing behind, or they escaped." Said Dina as she turned to look at Omis.

"It's hard to completely destroy a God realm's cultivator's body." Answered Omis with a thoughtful look as he raised his head to look at the horizon.

"En, I find It hard to believe that everyone has been wiped out. Tizzy was always very careful," added Dina.

"I can't scan the entire realm, something is interfering." Said Omis.

"What about the dead bodies? They didn't look like they belonged to 'The Hunters' they had no star on their faces after all." Asked Lu Lu.

"En, our best bet would be to follow their trail and hopefully meet our people." Answered Omis while rubbing his chin thoughtfully. The entire situation was too strange, he did not like it. The city was gone, in its place was a giant crater, no immediate signs of conflict besides the various corpses they found on the way.

And aura, he was able to sense a strange God realm aura in the area, it did not seem to belong to anyone from the city, nor did it seem I belong to anyone from 'the Hive'. That left 'The hunters' yet something was bugging him, the aura did not feel human?

"Master, are you alright?" asked Lu Lu as she approached him, her face full of concern.

Nodding he gave a forced smile before replying.

"Yes, don't worry. Let's go."

Quickly the group once again turned into three beams of light that flew towards the distance as they followed after the trail of dead bodies, hoping to encounter someone, anyone of that matter that could explain what exactly happened to the city.

Suddenly, Omis's expression became grave as his left eye turned blood red. He abruptly stopped and grabbed both Lu Lu and Dina in one arm before suddenly avoiding a rift that just appeared in their path.

"What-"

"Master!"

Omis paid no heed to their calls as he completely ignored the rift and spad away from it, his red eye constantly flickering as his expression turned grave. His second body was the first to react to the rift, whatever was in there was anything but good, his instinct screamed danger at him.

Glancing back at the rift, his eyes widened at the scene that greeted him.

"What the fuck is that!?" He cursed.
