Chapter 1868 Visions of Death

"...Then let us continue," his grandmother remarked. She conjured up a barrier separating them as she once more unleashed her full power, activating the Eye of Prophecy at full power.

Rui narrowed his eyes as her Martial Embodiment washed into his mind.

The world changed once more.

Visions of the Beast Domain continuously sprung up in his mind, showing the many fantasies and horrors of the domain of beasts.

He saw a large landscape extending into the horizon with all manners of flora and fauna living there. The bedrock of the land glowed with a spectrum of lights, indicating the presence of rich esoteric substances.

The very next moment, the vision shifted, showing an icy land with an extraordinary blizzard.

The very next moment, it shifted to a region in the sky filled with floating islands similar to the Ajanta Floating Island of the Floating Sect.

It shifted to a ruined forest ravaged with destruction. It shifted to a a sea that stretched far beyond the eye could see.

Countless visions flashed through his mind.

Then, his vision shifted to the Divine Doctor once more. The man stared at him with an intrigued smile, almost as if he were watching an interesting experiment unfold.

"Welcome to my prison," the man remarked. "I came here looking for clues regarding the illness of my latest patient, but alas, I was only shown that this world was even more fantastical than I had ever expected."

Rui tried responding to him, but alas, this wasn't a conversation.

"The Beggar Sage never noticed; what a fool," the Divine Doctor grinned at Rui with glee. "He always misses the most important stuff because he operates from the shadows."

Rui didn't know what he meant, but he stared right into Rui's eyes when he uttered those words.

"Eternal Dream disease?" He murmured, bored. "Trivial. Has the medical community not figured that one out yet? Tsk tsk."

The vision distorted once more as Rui gained another vision of the man; this time, it was more broken and incoherent.

"So what —— he's the ———-r of a Sag————erhouse?" The Divine Doctor yawned with a lazy drawl. "My current —— is infinitely more imp——— any individual person. You could br————ry single emperor of humanity, and they w————l be less important than my curr————, you know?"

It was a prediction of the future.

Did that mean that his grandmother predicted that he would find himself in front of the Divine Doctor?

"That is but one possible future," she remarked. "The ideal one; let me show you more realistic ones."

Rui's eyes widened as his vision changed once more.

Rui froze as the waters around him began churning in a spiral into an enormous whirlpool that began drawing him in with an unstoppable force.

At the center of the enormous whirlpool was a circular mouth with endless that sucked in all the water while chomping down on anything that came near the mouth, drawn in by the currents.

It was a charybdis.

Rui gritted his teeth as the unstoppable force drew him in. The vision changed once more before the jaws could clamp on him.

He suddenly found himself standing in the sky, surrounded by clouds. Strangely enough, the sky was purple instead of the usual blue that he was accustomed to. He sky-walked peacefully across the entire sky, alone.

Until he no longer was.

WHOOSH

Clouds morphed into birds larger than him, quickly surrounding him. Their bodies retained a smoky exterior, allowing them to camouflage as clouds extremely well.

They converged on him with lightning-fast charges. His vision shifted just as their beaks impaled him from all directions.

This time, he found himself in a cave. Inside it was a powerful serpent that towered over him, staring into his eyes. Its eyes seemed to have a hypnotic effect, boring into his mind as it scoured around, peering at things it shouldn't have.

HISSSSS

Rui understood what it was trying to convey.

|Alien|

WHOOSH

It lunged forward at speeds he could not even fathom. His vision shifted just a moment before he was swallowed whole. He found himself in a desert that was empty in all directions.

There was nothing but sand.

Unfortunately, that was bad news.

Rui froze as grains of sand began moving in his direction, swallowing him up and crushing him under their weight.

Rui struggled in vain as he realized the very desert around him was alive. Not only was it alive, but it was a predator that fed on anything that entered its sands. Alas, he realized this too late.

"Enough," Rui squeezed out with a strained voice. "That's enough."

The visions were dispelled as Matriarch Nephi stared at him with a calm expression. Rui narrowed his eyes, staring at her.

"Why did you show me futures of me dying?"
