[There… There are fifty swirl pools of black fog appearing on top of fifty peaks… This…] Ibra paused, getting shocked by what he was seeing.
"Just say what's coming out from these swirl pools," William could guess part of what was going to happen. And what Ibra said next made him confirm his worst guesses.
[They are humans… But they got something weird… It's like a crystal, a diamond shaped crystal on their foreheads… What the hell is this?]
"Let's cut down all of the talk until I contact you," William's tone turned dead serious, "don't move, don't release a single speck of spirit power. Even if you are using arrays and your darkness element, it won't help. Just stop your concealing technique and lay low like you are dead."
[You are scaring me…]
"I told you to stop talking, do as I say, and wait for my signal when the time is right. Don't move no matter what happens, got it? Go now and do as I say if you want to live…"
William stored away Ibra's Bullet, turned his eyes up to the peaks of these mountains. Each mountain was grand as if it was an entire island on its own. And their peaks were so towering to penetrate the cloud layer and hide behind it.
"Mutants… I never expected to meet any of you here…" William's tone was low, but it held tons of hatred and enmity towards those beings.
William already met the Transformers before back at the Scorching Lands fort. He still couldn't find them after their disappearance, but he knew they weren't as scary as Mutants.
Transformers could get the blessing of being a spirit master, a human, but just in the form of spirit and spirit power grade and training. Their biggest weakness lay in their inability to move, as they were linked and imprisoned towards statues.
But that wasn't the case of Mutants. They could overtake a spirit master's spirit, infusing themselves with it, kill the consciousness of that master, and end up controlling their bodies.
In return for that, they could gain both the benefits of being a spirit master, with a much smoother path to rise in grades and ranks, besides the benefits of being a scary monster before.
Monsters got to know tons of things that humans didn't. They knew how to rise up in power, how to train, where the most precious ores and treasures were, even knowing the places that could get them out of this world.
They got good relations with monsters and dark masters, not to mention they could infiltrate the spirit master world like they were one of them.
The only difference to tell if one was a Mutant or not was that crystal at the forehead. At normal times, these crystals wouldn't appear shining like how Ibra saw them just now.
Normally these crystals would look like part of skin, as if someone got an ugly scar or something. But under certain conditions, these Mutants would activate their crystals, exposing their weirdness to others.
One of these situations was when they'd rise up from one grade to another. Another situation was when they were using their monstrous spirit form. And that was what William suspected them doing right now.
Fifty Mutants, getting summoned here, just in the middle of such a scary formation, was for one purpose in his eyes; to fuel up and help that dark master to control the entire formation.
"A dark master who is just at the early stage of the dark gold grade is able to call up fifty Mutants isn't a normal master at all…"
William knew more than anyone else about how truly scary this current situation was. First of all, these Mutants were different from normal spirit masters.
As they got a unique spirit from merging theirs with spirit master's, ending up controlling the spirit masters and not vice versa, their new spirit got a scary ability to it, spirit power sensitivity.
Such ability was enough to make tons of trouble for anyone hiding and spying on their actions like Ibra. That was why William didn't even hesitate to cut all connections with Ibra, stressing on the latter to even cancel his technique.
These Mutants could merge their spirit power sensitivity with their spirit sense, able to scan a grand area and see if there are any hidden masters around or anything.
In addition to that, they could work as spirit power magnets, concentrating tons of spirit power in a small area around them. But to do so, they had to use their monstrous spirit, showing their true colours to the world.
William knew the purpose of their sudden call. As they came prepared, he also got that they were informed previously about the usage of this grand formation.
"That means… These Mutants are connected in some way with this formation… It means they are the true master of this dark master… Damn! Don't tell me they got wind of the interworld portal and did all this to secure it!"
William was shocked the more he thought about all this and jumped to conclusions. And then the world rumbled again before the dark purple clouds started to change.
"The Wheel of Fate and Destiny… It's truly getting activated…" William's face got darkened the moment he spotted the faint shimmering purple lights at these clouds.
This formation was indeed quite scary. The Black Purple Reign of Darkness formation worked by affecting fate, destiny, and time powers all together. It was a scary formation, one that could affect the current reality and heavily impact it.
The first thing to appear in this formation is the cloud appearance. Then it came down to the Wheels of Fate and Destiny to appear next.
This formation worked simply like this; all the areas covered up by the clouds would get affected by the Wheels appearing up there.
These wheels would affect time, fate, and destiny. The ones controlling them would rewind time to a certain moment in the past, based on how much spirit power they got and infused in the formation.
