Nightmare's Call

Chapter 573 Rescue: Part 1

“Well, then the question now is, who’s going to save her?” –Swordweb.

“I don’t have the time, you guys go.” — Processed Jewel.

That person just outright refused it straight off the bat.

“I want to go but I can’t. I’m not a big boss like Jewel, and have totally no idea how to go there...” — Ascension.

“This is a trivial matter. You just need to be quick. You don’t need much strength. I can sponsor a teleportation just this once.” — Processed Jewel.

“Can that be done?” — Ascension.

He was a little shocked. If this could be done, then what he had been doing previously was simply to make a fool out of himself before big bosses like Jewel here!

“Yes, it’s a bit of a drag, but overall still quite simple.” — Processed Jewel.

“I’m really envious at you big bosses being able to travel so freely.” — Holy Light Shines Upon You.

“It’ll be damn nice if we could go and in out of other worlds someday.” — Ascension.

“Yeah, yeah, but we are just ordinary people, and we are weak. If we cannot return after going over then we’ll be in trouble.”– Holy Light Shines Upon You.

“It’s okay, we have Big Boss Jewel here right?” — Ascension.

“The only trouble is, there may be powerful folks in Giving Hope’s world that detects our teleportation. If this sort of teleportation gets detected, it will cause a lot of trouble.” — Swordweb.

“Let’s decide who to go first.” — Red Whale.

“Forget it, I’ll go.” — Ascension.

“Okay. Get ready. Find a place to stand by, and don’t let anyone see you.” — Processed Jewel.

Lin Sheng looked away from the chat and felt something new.

At the same time, he had some doubts about that big boss called Processed Jewel.

“This Spectral Light thing sure is something. They used to say that it is not possible for teleportation, but now someone appears and mentioned they have developed a way to do so...”

Lin Sheng did one final inspection of the God Summoning Ritual on the ground before standing up.

If he had time, he would not have minded trying out how this so-called positional teleportation would feel like.

After all, this was an opportunity to travel to another world. Although he had been to different worlds in his dream, it was still different from going there himself.

After making sure there were no discrepancies. Lin Sheng motioned to the staff outside the isolation chamber to turn on the switch.

*Snap!*

The patterns on the ritual matrix lit up in blue light one after another.

A thin mist started to appear and enveloping Lin Sheng in the middle of it.

Lin Sheng settled down, as he lowered his hand and started to recite the summoning chant for the God of Shadows.

No one knew what the chant meant, and the director that played the instrument only knew the pronunciation.

As the syllables continued to be chanted, the ritual matrix on the ground became brighter and more dazzling.

Gradually, to his surprise, Lin Sheng began to notice his shadow was twisted and squirming like a living being as it expanded.

A whisper-like chant echoed in his ears. He was clearly alone in the room, yet this echo was getting more and more pronounced.

As time passed, Lin Sheng looked at the shadow in the middle of the room as a black oval gate slowly opened.

There were black spiky bird monsters by the sides of the gate, and the middle looked like a stream of flowing water that constantly rippled.

“The gate is open...” After obtaining the memory fragments of one of the four directors, Lin Sheng knew this was the time to summon the God of Shadows.

As long as the gate was opened, he needed to recite the name of the god, before removing any distractions from his mind, then there would be a great possibility of success for the ritual.

He calmed himself down as he looked at the black gate on the ground.

“Angula Enqeavis...” He started to recite a long and bizarre name.

This was the God of Shadow’s true name, and even if he only knew the pronunciation, it was enough.

As he finished the incantation, the round-arched gate made out of black shadows began to quickly stabilize.

Yet about half a minute after he had chanted the name, while the ritual still maintained its massive power consumption, yet there was no reaction from the gate at all.

Lin Sheng had questions and once again recited the name of the God of Shadows.

Yet the situation remains unchanged.

There was nothing within the opened darkness.

“??” Lin Sheng narrowed his eyes, as he took a few steps forward. And just as he imagined, the shadow arched gate remained firmly affixed to the ground and did not move with him.

Soon, he placed a foot into the black gate.

“Oh? It can be entered into?” Lin Sheng suddenly found that one of his legs had actually gone into it.

“The God of Shadows...” Lin Sheng had a thought in mind, and instead of raising his feet away, he instead continued forwards.

*WHOOSH!*

In an instant, he seemingly descended into a hole as he fell through the gate.

His vision blurred as he suddenly went from being in the Holyspirit Palace into somewhere else.

He now stood before a massive spherical wooden house door.

All around him were massive roots that grew and spread out from around the wooden house.

It was as if the roots had grown straight out of the house itself.

Lin Sheng looked around and made his way to the wooden house door.

The door itself was open, and within it was a black idol altar.

The idol on the altar had the form of a thousand-handed god, and at first glance, a powerful aura of wickedness rushed to meet him.

But the thousand-handed idol had fine cracks all around it.

Lin Sheng then looked to the sky.

It was nothing but gray with no clouds nor blue skies.

Even in day time, deep within the roots, he could see a think layer of black mist floating about.

“So this place had also been afflicted by the black mist huh?” Lin Sheng walked into the wooden cabin.

There was a thick layer of blood plasma-like thing on the ground, and it was difficult to imagine how much blood was needed for it to coagulate to this point.

“This God Summoning Ritual, it would have been fine if nothing had come out of it, but now for me to come in here myself...”

Lin Sheng looked around the wooden house, and quickly found a tiny white bottle.

Within it was fine milky white sand, with a black pearl-like bead in the middle of it.

Lin Sheng scoured the wooden cabin for a long while, and there were many fine cipher text carved on both the inside and the outside of the cabin.

But sadly, all of the ciphers had long lost their effectiveness.

And this house had seemed to be abandoned for a long while now.

“Even the gods had gone missing?” Lin Sheng frowned as he postulates.

Suddenly, he raised his hand and pointed towards the large roots in the distance.

*BAM!!*

A scorching white beam blasted out and tore into the sea of tree roots before disappearing.

Lin Sheng could still sense the existence of the holy light beam, but it was getting farther and farther away.

*PUFF!*

Suddenly, the entire beam abruptly disappeared, as if it was swallowed by something.
