Chapter 2465: 2465 **Chapter 2465: So We Are All Just Tools** The sky collapsed, and huge holes appeared in the high altitude. The waters of the Realm Sea, mixed with countless rocks, fell from the sky. Not only rocks but even entire islands fell down as well. They plunged into the vast ocean, creating huge splashes before quickly sinking and disappearing. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢 Lin Moyu keenly observed that, besides the rocks, some cultivators were also being swept down with the waters of the Realm Sea. They were carried away by the splashes and quickly disappeared. These cultivators were either humans or demons, and every one of them was unconscious. He also noticed that there were origin crystals mixed in with the rocks, falling into the ocean. The collapses were not limited to one place. The Skeleton Generals exploring the space transmitted information that many places were collapsing. The sky looked like a torn sack, full of holes. Lin Moyu originally wanted to save some of the humans, but he found that the Skeleton Generals couldn’t get close. The waters of the Realm Sea formed a peculiar force field, blocking all the Skeleton Generals outside. This situation was different from what he had encountered with the altar before. In the distance, a divine dragon fell with the waters of the Realm Sea. Ao Lei let out a dragon roar and flew over. However, he was heavily repelled before he could get close, unable to approach. Ao Lei was visibly anxious, trying repeatedly but to no avail. He watched helplessly as his companions fell into the ocean and disappeared. He also tried diving into the ocean but found nothing after a search. Lu Fengyao asked cautiously, "Why is this happening?" This situation seemed different from their previous experience. When they fell from the collapsing altar, they were all fine. Seven divine dragons and three insect mothers, none were missing. But this time, those who fell were unconscious and then disappeared into the ocean. This strange situation made Lu Fengyao wary. Lin Moyu looked at the holes in the sky and then at the sword-shaped fish bone in his hand, "This time is different from ours." Lu Fengyao asked, "What’s different?" Lin Moyu explained, "I triggered the Dao Patterns in the altar, which can be considered as prematurely activating the altar or even destroying its original function." "They should have waited until the altar was fully activated, allowing its power to reach its peak, which is why they are more affected." As he spoke, Lin Moyu stared unblinkingly at a nearby hole, vaguely seeing a sword-shaped fish bone above it. In the distance, he saw members of the Hundred Herbs Alliance also falling from the sky. They were all large and varied in shape, but without exception, they were all unconscious. Finally, the Skeleton Generals made a new discovery. The people who had fallen with them finally appeared. This space was so vast that Lin Moyu had the Skeleton Generals explore for a long time without finding the boundary. Besides Lu Fengyao, the insect race, and the dragon race, he hadn’t seen anyone else. Finding Lu Fengyao was already extremely lucky. Now, seeing people from the same altar confirmed that the outcome of their altar was different due to his actions. At this moment, Lu Fengyao exclaimed, pointing at the whale, "It’s moving again!" The Dao Patterns on the whale were rapidly lighting up. Lin Moyu felt uneasy and shouted, "Let’s retreat!" Without hesitation, they moved far away, putting over a thousand kilometers between them and the whale. The Dao Patterns on the whale fully lit up, and its massive mouth opened, emitting a deep sound. Instantly, a terrifying suction appeared, drawing a large amount of seawater into the whale’s mouth. The waterfalls falling from the sky also rushed into the whale’s mouth. However, this time was different from before. The waterfalls turned into water dragons, carrying immense power, entering the whale’s mouth. The suction swept through the entire space, pulling everything towards it, no matter the distance. Lin Moyu saw many cultivators falling with the waterfalls, being sucked into the whale’s mouth and dying instantly. If he hadn’t accidentally activated the altar early, he might have ended up like them. Lin Moyu’s expression grew serious, "The King of the Realm Sea’s intention with the Realm Sea Token this time is to take our lives." "Fengyao, were the previous Realm Sea Tokens safe?" Lu Fengyao rolled her eyes, "Do you think I know everything? Information about the Realm Sea Token is rarely shared." "But it’s said that the casualties from the Realm Sea Token were not heavy. I don’t know what’s different this time." Lin Moyu murmured, "It’s indeed strange. If we all die here, offending so many people at once, the King of the Realm Sea would have to consider the consequences." "What’s really going on? Did I misjudge?" The soul fires had indeed disappeared, leading Lin Moyu to instinctively think they were dead. But were they really dead? Lu Fengyao’s words made Lin Moyu uncertain. After all, those who came to participate in the Realm Sea Token event were all powerful and influential. Even if the King of the Realm Sea was powerful, offending so many at once would have consequences. The waters of the Realm Sea were rapidly refined inside the whale, turning into ordinary water and flowing out from its back. The people it swallowed never reappeared. Moments later, the waterfalls were finally swallowed clean, and more than half of the Realm Sea water in the ocean was refined, greatly weakening its aura. The whale’s body emitted an indescribable, immensely powerful aura. At this moment, the whale’s devouring continued, and the suction grew even stronger. From the holes in the sky, sword-shaped fish bones flew out, heading towards the whale. The sword-shaped fish bone in Lin Moyu’s hand also buzzed, breaking free and flying towards the whale. The fish bones grew larger as they approached the whale, becoming incredibly massive. Lin Moyu suddenly realized, "I understand now. These fish bones are the whale’s spine." For many creatures, the spine is the core of the body. While the physical body may not be crucial, it is not entirely unimportant. Especially for Dao Sovereigns, the physical body is a vital component. Dao Patterns appear on the bones, significantly enhancing a Dao Sovereign’s combat power. After the physical body is destroyed and the flesh is reshaped, it takes a long time for the Dao Patterns to recover. For this whale to revive, the spine containing Dao Patterns is essential. Compared to the spine, other bones are less important. There were eighteen sword-shaped fish bones in total, connecting end to end, becoming incredibly large, matching the whale’s size. The fish bones combined, emitting a terrifying aura, and an invisible force swept through the space. The fish bones slowly sank and merged with the whale. Lin Moyu fully understood the situation. Lu Fengyao noticed his expression and asked, "Did you figure something out?" Lin Moyu didn’t hide anything, "After the whale died, its bones scattered across different spaces. Our task was to collect these bones and gather them in various altars. When the altars collapsed, we fell here with the fish bones. The sword-shaped fish bones in the altars are the whale’s spine, and the other fish bones we collected are from other parts of its body. During the whale’s revival, it will devour the people who fall in, along with the fish bones they collected." Lu Fengyao’s expression changed, "So the King of the Realm Sea used us as tools." Lin Moyu said, "Pretty much. But now I doubt those people are really dead. Killing us all wouldn’t benefit the King of the Realm Sea." Suddenly, Lin Moyu’s eyes narrowed as he saw a soul fire forming inside the whale. Roar! A deafening roar echoed through the heavens, and the entire space completely collapsed!
