Chapter 226 - A New Identity

Chapter 226 - A New Identity

[Devouring]!
A vile energy that caused seeps of darkness to roil around the area erupted out, acting like a voracious mouth that went forward to swallow the remaining figures of cultivators in the skies.
Senior Brother Carl was the last of the cultivators beneath the Transcendent Realm to be swallowed as his Martial Uncle frantically fought off the voracious darkness trying to swallow him whole.
"Otherworlder, you cannot kill us! Our people will find out and chase you to the ends of the world!"
The moment that Martial Uncle Dan felt the restrictions of the mental skill that made him neglect and disregard this deadly enemy lifted and his mind return to normal, he tried various methods to teleport out of the formation that he himself created, but nothing was working!
He could not even destabilize and turn off the formation to allow the outside world to peek into the events occurring in this isolated space as everything seemed to be locked in place.
The many eyes of the Nine-Headed Dragon voraciously looked at the Martial Uncle, and one could even observe the expression of avarice as they looked at the Transcendent Realm cultivator with a gaze that had already determined the fate of the being in front of it.
A thundering voice erupted out from all directions as the jaws of the many heads opened and shot out tremendously fast blasts of energy that looked like beams of plasma of a variety of colors.
BOOM!
"AHH!"
The sands protecting Martial Uncle Dan were ripped apart as many holes ruptured throughout his body, Noah not giving him a single chance as the &123;Sin of Gluttony&125; was activated once again and the once arrogant Martial Uncle was swallowed whole.
The next instant after that, the formation that isolated the space began to destabilize as it was not getting any more energy. Noah observed this as his thoughts moved rapidly, &123;Parallel Thought&125; and &123;Hasten Mind&125; working in full throttle as he put aside the many [Skill Book]s and [Core]s dropped as loot from the cultivators and simply focused on the feature of [Library] from the &123;Sin of Gluttony&125;
The entire life of the Martial Uncle, the Senior Brother that had called him here as well as the posse that he walked around with all the time, all of their lives were playing out in the form of memories that were rapidly integrated and memorized in Noah's mind.
VOOM!
His large form of the Calamitous Leviathan disappeared as he returned to his human form, but even that did not last long enough as his facial muscles began to change and bones could be heard reshaping, his body gradually changing to that of a particularly confident Martial Uncle of the Time Immemorial Sect.
POP!
The moment that the formation became destabilized enough and was wiped away, a brand new and improved Martial Uncle Dan made an appearance to the outside world.
He was in the skies not too far away from the road he took away from the Rainbow Spirit Mountain. None of the commotions from the formation or what happened in it leaked out as the area returned to normal. But something monumental had occurred.
Noah was reveling in the memories of Martial Uncle Dan as this cultivator was a high ranking member of the Time Immemorial Sect, and Noah received the memories of how they were already moving for the same goal he held, the tomb of the Devilish Time Unveiler!
He recalled the memories of Martial Uncle Dan hurrying to quickly wrap up the issue his nephew had brought up before he began his preparations for the journey that could begin at any moment.
Not a single soul in the World of Cultivation knew when the Treasure Abode of the Devilish Time Unveiler would open, they could only glimpse the possibility of its appearance and location, and just this was making many nearby sects go crazy to get their hands on the treasures of a being from the Void Fimmerment Realm.
The many memories continued to play throughout his head as he affirmed how to move from now on with his new identity as the Martial Uncle of the Time Immemorial Sect, as well as how to handle the disappearance of Senior Brother Carl and his posse.
All of these things could be put in the back of his mind currently though, as the spectacular attacks that Martial Uncle Dan, the face of the cultivator he was currently wearing, had truly gifted him with a tremendous set of skills.
The first one was a Phantasmal skill that the cultivator had used the moment he pulled Noah into the formation, the skill called [Earthly Revival]
[Violet Immemorial First Stage- Earthly Revival] :: The very earth you look down upon becomes a source of strength that can be transferred into a plain attack or used to reinforce your defenses. An incantation is required- "A glimmering darkness that never ages. Rise and turn the earth asunder, Earthly Revival!"
It was a powerful skill that matched some of the highest damage dealing Phantasmal skills that Noah currently held, but the skill he obtained next was one that made him even happier. It was a skill at the TRANSCENDENT rank, making it his second-ever skill of this rank.
[Violet Immemorial Second Stage- Sands of Time ] :: Aged and forgotten, the history of the sands in the surroundings come under your command as they corner your enemy. Unless one is proficient in the power of time, the attacks cannot be evaded. An incantation is required to initiate the skill- "Shimmering earth filled with sinless grains of time. Suffocating dreams asphyxiate thy own will. Obey, revile, and overwhelm! Sands of Time!"
A feature repeated itself similar to the first stage of these skills from the Violet Immemorial set where one had to call out a specific incantation to cast them, but their power spoke for itself.
The surprises should have stopped here as Noah prepared to move towards the Rainbow Spirit Mountain to assume his new role as Martial Uncle Dan before following the forces of the Time Immemorial Sect into the extremely dangerous tomb of the Void Fimmerment cultivator, but when he moved on from the memories in the [Library] and into the skills he could choose from the beings he devoured using &123;Sin of Gluttony&125;, he was met with the most stupendous selection as something new he had never come across before appeared.
Among the skills he could choose from the devoured origin of Martial Uncle Dan was a skill that was the first of its kind, a skill holding the tag of TRANSCENDENT+. This came as a huge surprise as he always had to combine his current skills before he reached the mid-rank between one level to another, yet one of the skills he could obtain right now was already halfway there. His eyes shined as he peered through the appearance of this new skill!
TRANSCENDENT+ [Violet Immemorial Third Stage- Cage of Time] :: A cage filled with the darkness of time sunders upon a single target. Only those with great strength or proficiency in the Law of Time can break out of this terrible cage filled with nothingness. An incantation is required to initiate the skill- "The ebb of corpses flows and flutters, yet a single prison stalls in the river of time. Simmer in the sea of turbidity, reflect the embers of age, and extinguish all hopes of victory, Cage of Time!"
