Chapter 739 - 12: The Other Side of the
......
"Strange, what is this feeling exactly..."
Step by step, approaching the location of the Great Holy Grail, Gu Mo walked in the darkness, one by one unraveling those ancient Techniques. Without much effort, he strolled past, and the Techniques along the way became tame, as if they had become his territory.
Behind this seemingly effortless manner, incredibly powerful Spiritual Power radiated out, transforming into invisible hands, perceiving various surrounding situations, effortlessly scanning the structures of those ancient Magic Techniques, pinpointing the nodes of Magic Power, and targeting them to unravel one by one.
On the surface, he appeared to walk leisurely, but beneath that was the result of super computational power and Spiritual Power that surpassed the Human Realm, working harmoniously together.
And as he approached the Great Holy Grail, Gu Mo felt a slight stirring in his mind.
The autumn wind has yet to move, yet the cicada perceives it first!
He paused slightly, gazing at the Great Holy Grail before him, and fell into contemplation. He believed in his Extraordinary Mind, after all, even if his current body only had 70% of the original value, his Spiritual attribute was at least around 33 Points, not to mention that when breaking through the 30 Points barrier earlier, he had chosen two additional enhancements—
One was "Thought Division," allowing him to multitask to an extreme, with the support of Human Intelligence Integration in the real world, it was further enhanced;
The other was "Mind Guidance," which could be considered as having top-tier Intuition, able to receive Revelation based on his instincts, allowing him to predict premonitions and choose the most favorable outcome for himself.
Especially the latter, this Spiritual transformation’s Extraordinary Mind Power, is an Extraordinary Trait that his projected clone would also possess, naturally allowing him the same treatment. Even due to the overwhelming power of the Mind and the exceedingly sensitive premonitions, he had to perform self-suggestion to selectively block out parts of lower-level forewarnings.
So, this strong alarm like an air-raid siren right now...
What could it be?
He quietly stared at the large protrusion resembling a mortar, as well as the main part of the massive Magic Circle in front of him. Can the Great Holy Grail threaten him?
That’s certainly impossible, and the premonitions he felt were not dangers or threats, but more like a premonition for something not yet confirmed but is indeed closely connected to himself about to occur. Although it wouldn’t endanger him...
However, this matter might be very large in scale, which would explain this level of intense premonition.
"Interesting, I suddenly became more interested..."
Gu Mo smiled lightly, reaching into his sleeve to pull out a paper cut, and directly stuck it in mid-air.
From afar, Medusa and Ilya saw the White-clothed Daoist raise a bright moon, illuminating the Great Void with its clear, bright light.
The paper cut formed a moon, and under the moonlight, Gu Mo stepped forward, the Power of Lies spread arbitrarily, sprawling across the entire underground space, rapidly altering the nature of this Spirit Vein Land, generating layers of Magic and Rituals, transforming this land into his domain.
In an instant, a workshop nearing the Divine Hall level had taken shape.
And it continued to spontaneously undergo modifications and enhancements, continuously reinforcing and advancing.
Ultimately, as he steadily moved forward, he consumed the space of the Dragon Cave from the outside to the inside, compressing the size of the Great Holy Grail’s Magic Techniques and Magic Circuits, completely surrounding the central one-kilometer-diameter Magic Circuit, the microcosm formed by human composition.
Gu Mo also paused before the Great Holy Grail, examining the massive Magic Circle.
Speaking of which, Emiya Kiritsugu also tampered with this place; the old man spent the last years of his life figuring out the structure of the Great Void where the Great Holy Grail resides, creating a tumor on the mountain, hoping to resolve everything in the next Holy Grail War.
If all went well, the tumor would need only thirty to forty years to cause the collapse of the void beneath the mountain along with the Great Holy Grail, indeed allowing to undo the foundation of the Holy Grail War before the next sixty-year cycle, destroying this already contaminated and distorted ritual.
Unfortunately, the old man hadn’t anticipated—
Because the previous Holy Grail War ten years ago hardly consumed any Magic Power, the Fuyuki Earth Vein accumulated just enough Magic Power over ten years to bring about the Holy Grail’s advent prematurely, triggering this Holy Grail War fifty years early, rendering the old man’s methods useless.
Gu Mo considered this not entirely unfortunate; his Intuition told him, to dismantle the Great Holy Grail physically in a simple and reckless manner wasn’t a good idea...
At least not suitable before the vast internal Magic Power is significantly consumed, as it could easily release that malignant vortex of power if destroyed hastily.
He sorted his thoughts, then extended his Spiritual Will, enveloping the entire main body of the Great Holy Grail with the highest level of precision.
With a thought, all the changes within this region were perceived, even the slightest Magic Power fluctuations or ripples at the space-time level. The Vast Spirit that only a Divine Body could bear precisely apprehended a certain obscure aura.
In the next instant, Perception rapidly immersed along the connection.
——Reverse Incarnation!!
...
The sky was red, as red as blood.
In the black mud rain, the dark Sun dominated the sky.
The wind was curses and grievances, all around was black mud rolling like ocean waves.
Successfully appearing inside the Great Holy Grail, Gu Mo’s body resembled a phantom, curiously surveying his surroundings, looking at "all the evils of this world" restrained inside the Holy Grail, then looked up towards the sky, where a black Sun resided.
An unfathomable darkness, like a black hole, its density seemed able to crush everything.
"That is the true Holy Grail, its entity is essentially a true ’hole.’ As for the Holy Grail manifested externally, it’s merely a vessel, a key to opening this ’hole,’ a device for fixing this ’hole’..."
A gentle voice echoed, a woman in a black dress appeared, her face was so beautifully sculpted like a doll, with a gentle and kind smile she said.
"Although you haven’t obtained a Servant’s Soul, your own capacity far surpasses everything, truly astonishing... Now, make a wish, you’re the only one worthy to command it, have you decided how to use your wish?"
"Alright then, fix my system."
Gu Mo glanced at the black-dressed Irisviel, casually expressing his desire.
"..."
"..."
"Huh?" The smile on the woman’s face in the black dress slightly froze, how could there be no reaction at all, could it be that this is an impossible request?
"Seems impossible..." The young man across showed a disappointed expression, then clicked his tongue, full of disdain, leaving her momentarily lost for words.
Gu Mo composed himself, feeling the connection becoming apparent, frowning as he stared directly at that "hole" in the sky, his eyes emitting even bluer radiance.
What’s on the other side? Or rather...
What is on the other side?
It seemed to be the source of his intense premonition?
With such interest, he intensified his Divine Star Pupil, injecting Spiritual Power and Magic Power into them, transforming the captured information of causation into near-visual information reception, and that bottomless darkness in his eyes gradually became clearer, like layers of dense fog being lifted—
He witnessed a seed of fantasy falling from beyond the sky, rooting into the blue planet.
It absorbed Magic Power from the Earth Vein...
Extending its roots from the sky.
