Re:Immortal

Chapter 117

Two orbs of light were blazing in the sky as they crossed the 'Underworld'. Throughout the entire flight, Lu Lu's eyes constantly darted towards Omis, as she sneaked glances at his face.

Something was wrong, something was terribly wrong. She didn't know what exactly it was that her master saw during his breakthrough, but it didn't seem to be anything good.

Him breaking through with his cultivation base advancing should have without a doubt been a joyous occasion, yet as she peeked at his dazed face, Lu Lu felt a stabbing pain in her chest.

"Master..." She called out softly, but no reply came.

Omis's gaze was distant, his body seemed to move almost automatically as they flew to catch up to the celestial from 'The Immortal'.

The silence was almost deafening to Lu Lu, she had never seen her master make a face like that before, his eyes seemed lost almost vacant with his gaze blank.

"Just what did you see, master..." She muttered to herself as she closely followed behind him.

Looking at Omis's figure flying next to hers, Lu Lu could discern a few prominent changes, the first being his hair color, it was now completely raven from one side and white from the other.

The second change was his eyes, though his gaze was distant, the glint in his eyes was impossible to miss, one turned Scarlet, simply looking at it gave one the feeling of staring at the abyss itself, a mad air surrounded it.

The other one was now golden, it exuded a holy aura that strangely reminded Lu Lu of the previous untainted state of the heavenly realm.

The contrast between the auras of each eye was very large, yet each seemed to be able to strangely complete the other as if it was meant to be in the first place.

Lu Lu had to retract her gaze from Omis, his eyes seemed to be able to draw her in, she gasped as her cultivation base began to go out of control before forcefully looking away.

"What realm did master break into?!" She wondered in shock, a mere gaze was enough to send her cultivation in chaos. This was far above a normal God rank.

"Master, we are almost there." She spoke, as the group from 'The Immortal' soon came into their view in the distance.

Omis did not seem to care, not bothering to reply as he simply picked up the pace and flew faster, causing Lu Lu to grit her teeth and attempt to keep up.

"My lord, the Immortal Mentor came back!" Reported Eva, as she flew closer to Tizzy.

"En, he made it." Answered Tizzy with a sigh of relief.

Stopping in mid-air, Tizzy watched as two orbs of light cut through the air before stopping in front of him, the glow slowly disappearing to leave behind a blank-faced Omis and a tired Lu Lu.

Tizzy had a smile on his face and was about to speak when his gaze fell on Omis's vacant gaze, then at Lu Lu's dark look.

"You broke through." He said as he moved closer to Omis.

"En," Omis replied, yet his eyes continued to stare at the blank void.

"You got some of your memories back." Added Tizzy.

"En," Omis answered once more without looking at Tizzy, his gaze still at the ceiling of the 'Underworld'.

Tizzy let out a sigh, a sad expression on his face before he brought Omis closer to a hug.

"I'm sorry my friend." He said softly.

"En." Answered Omis, a single tear falling from his eye.

Patting his back, Tizzy grabbed Omis by the shoulders as he forced him to look at his eyes before speaking.

"You have to be strong my friend!" He said in a somber tone.

Omis's eyes then moved to gaze back at him, causing Tizzy's heart to start beating wildly in his chest, a sensation he hadn't felt in a very long time washing over him, fear...He gulped as he forced himself to meet Omis's eyes before speaking.

"Trust me when I say that understand my friend."

Letting out a tired sigh, Omis raised his head to gaze at the 'Underworld' ceiling once again without saying anything.

"It takes time, but time is something we got a whole lot of." Added Tizzy with a pat on his back before turning around.

"Come on, let's go." He said, causing Eva and the cultivators that were watching the entire interaction with bated breath to snap back into reality, before hurriedly bowing to Omis and resuming their flight after Tizzy.

"My lord, is okay to leave him like that?" Asked Eva as she kept glancing at Omis's figure.

"He needs time to process everything, and he is in good hands." He said as his eyes moved to look at Lu Lu who was rushed towards Omis.

"Master, remember what you told me when I just woke up? She asked as she gently grabbed his hand and held it closer.

You said that you were here and that you werent going anywhere. She said with a smile.

That made me very happy you know? She added before pulling Omis into her embrace.

Now, I'm here for you master, and Im not going anywhere. She whispered as she held him tighter in her embrace.

Thank you. Softly replied Omis, his hands returning her hug.

After a while, the two finally parted. Omis then spoke.

Lets go, we cant let them fly alone. We dont know when the glowing bastard might appear. He said, though there was a bit of light back into his eyes, the deep sadness within was still clearly visible causing Lu Lus heart to hurt in her chest.

Right after you master! She answered as she forced a cheerful smile onto her face.

The duo soon turned into two orbs of light that shone into the distance, quickly catching up to the group.

As soon as they appeared, countless eyes fell on them or more specifically on Omis, the people gathered around were a mixture of Originals, their servants, and their descendants.

One thing they all had in common however was the gaze full of respect as they looked at Omis, to the servants and descendants, he was an existence way above theirs, a God realm Original on par with the master of the city himself.

They did not know the details about his power, only rumors as the legend of the Immortal mentor was one that almost everyone knew, and by looking at how close he seemed to the master, that was more than enough to tell them everything. This was a figure to be respected.

To the Originals however, Omis was an entirely different figure worthy of their respect for a whole another reason, not to mention his high cultivation base, every Original had already heard the news from Tizzy, how Omis had managed to uncover a glimpse of the truth behind their summoning.

He was also a man that dared brave forward through the God realm, fully knowing the risks that followed, if he did not deserve their respect, no one else would!
