Everything in the image was exactly the same as what Wang Baole had seen in his previous life on the Celestial Fate Planet!
It was the Dao Annihilation Battle between the Vast Expanse Dao Domain and the Never-Ending Dao Domain. The Vast Expanse Dao Domain had gone all out to resist and unleashed a secret technique to awaken the Laozu statue and fight it out with the Never-Ending Dao Domain.
In the image, all the living beings in the Never-Ending Dao Domain were worshipping the starry sky. They were chanting complicated incantations, as if they were praying and summoning.
As they prayed, countless lightning bolts appeared in the starry sky, as if they wanted to cover the entire void. In the center of the countless lightning bolts, there was something that looked like a crack and a vortex.
It was called a crack because its appearance was irregular, as if the starry sky had been torn apart. It was called a vortex because outside the tear, countless nomological laws were drawn in. They collided with each other and canceled each other out, creating a storm-like situation. Like a halo, it kept spreading in all directions. Therefore, from afar, it looked like a vortex!
There were also waves of earth-shattering pressure that caused the starry sky to tremble and the universe to dim was being released from the crack and the vortex. It was as if the level of the pressure was too high, so much so that the void universe, which was strong enough to give birth to a Dao Domain, could not withstand it. It was as if the universe was about to collapse as the pressure spread out.
It shook the mind!
Wang Baole's mind was trembling. Although he had seen the same image in his previous life, he had not been as good as he was now, whether in terms of cultivation or mobility. The difference between the former and the latter was not small. As for the latter, because he was in the illusion and had a clear mind, he could decide whether to stay or leave!
Soon, in the midst of the overwhelming pressure, he saw a huge piece of wood slowly descend from the crack and the vortex. One foot, two feet, three feet …
The wood fell three feet, the Vast Expanse Dao Domain collapsed, and the Laozu statue collapsed. Countless roars and screams erupted in the starry sky. Countless living beings were torn apart, and countless lives were forcibly wiped out. There was no bloody slaughter, but the reality of death was happening!
Wang Baole's spirit was shaking violently. When he saw the scene again, he was still extremely emotional. However, he knew that he could not hold on for long. Even if the woman in red had amazing powers and could create all this, she could not sustain it for long. He was afraid that in the next moment, she would not be able to hold on and see something she should not see, causing all this to disappear in a flash.
Therefore, Wang Baole suppressed the shock in his heart and, without hesitation, continued what he hadn't been able to do in his previous life, which he had realized in his previous life!
His silhouette dashed out instantly, his speed unleashing the maximum of his physical body, Divine Soul, and cultivation. His entire body was like a shooting star leaping through the cosmos of the battlefield, heading straight for … the vortex in the rift where the three-foot-long black wood had fallen!
The familiar and warm feeling continued to surface in Wang Baole's mind as he neared the vortex rapidly. As his consciousness grew stronger, he got closer and closer to the vortex!
At the same time, the world formed by the illusion began to destabilize. It began to tremble slightly, but within the space of a few breaths of time, it began to shake violently. Then, it began to show signs of collapsing!
Thunderous booms reverberated in the air like never before. Vaguely, Wang Baole even heard a scream that seemed to come from the void. He instantly realized that the scream came from … the woman in red.
"The illusion can't hold on for much longer!" Wang Baole panicked. He increased his speed again, getting closer to the vortex of the rift. However, at that moment, the illusion world began to collapse.
The first to collapse was the void below. The void of the starry sky shattered at a visible rate. It was as if the entire scene was being rapidly wiped away by an invisible hand from below.
In the next moment, the collapsing Vast Expanse Dao Territory disappeared. The same happened to the Never-Ending Dao Territory. They were rapidly dissipating, and the entire world was rapidly turning into nothingness.
Wang Baole's speed had reached its limit. The power of destruction and erasure continued to pursue him. As the world rapidly disappeared, Wang Baole finally … charged into the vortex of the rift just as the will of destruction and erasure closed in!
He took a step forward, and his body followed the vortex into the rift. The instant he entered the rift, his vision blurred, as if there was a layer of fog covering it. He couldn't see clearly. Although the rift was the entrance, due to the different rules and laws, and the Daos of two different worlds, or perhaps two different universes, Wang Baole would never be able to see the moon in the water unless he was completely used to it!
At this moment, the erasing force caught up with the figure behind him, dissipating along with the surrounding void. Even the vortex outside the crack was the same. In the entire illusory world, only the crack was still there.
However, it couldn't continue. It wasn't because the rift's power wasn't enough. On the contrary, it was because its level was too high, beyond the scope of the red-robed woman's abilities. It was as if she had seen something she shouldn't have, as if a mortal had seen an Immortal God. Everything that shouldn't be seen … suddenly exploded.
The rift … disappeared!
However … in the instant it disappeared, Wang Baole stepped into it. His vision slowly began to clear, but in the end, he couldn't see everything clearly. He could only see things through the fog.
Within the blur, Wang Baole seemed to be able to see that beyond the rift was another universe. There were no stars, only numerous illusory figures of various sizes, sitting cross-legged in the starry sky.
There were men and women, young and old, as well as wild beasts. There were a total of 108 of them, and all of them emanated shocking Dao Will. All of them were sitting in meditation with their eyes closed, and it was as if … there was a world inside of them, and there were living beings inside of them.
Shockingly, above the 108 figures in the vast universe was an enormous figure that surpassed all of them. It was so large that even if the 108 figures were added together, they wouldn't be a tenth of its size.
The figure was like an emperor, and emanated the aura of a sovereign. Its eyes were not closed, but rather, they were open, and it was looking at Wang Baole!
The instant its gaze fell upon Wang Baole's eyes, Wang Baole's entire body shook violently. It was as if a sharp blade had pierced his mind and soul. His eyes exploded, and he lost all sight. The world grew blurry and then collapsed!
A moment later, in the Underworld River, in the temple, in the world of the woman in red, Wang Baole's consciousness returned to his body. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his eyes, nose, mouth, and mouth roared as if they were about to explode. Tears of blood streamed down his face, and cracks spread across his body. It was as if he was about to be torn apart. He staggered backward several steps.
As he staggered backward, wisps of red mist spread out from his body. After they flew out, they quickly gathered together to form the figure of the woman in red. She was screaming miserably.
"Who are you? Who are you?!" The woman seemed to have suffered an indescribable injury. She coughed up blood as well, and her body was about to break apart. She covered her only eye and retreated rapidly. She didn't even want her beloved wooden puppets. In the next instant, she disappeared from the world.
As she disappeared, the world grew blurry. A moment later, the world dissipated, revealing … the real place inside the temple.
It was an ordinary temple, and the place of worship was the statue of a woman in red. However, at that moment, countless cracks appeared on the statue. Blood flowed out of its eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, and an entrance appeared on the ground in front of the statue.
As for Wang Baole, he was beside the entrance. His eyes were closed, and his breathing was rapid. Around him … lay a large number of Underworld Sect cultivators. All of them were in deep sleep, but there were obvious fluctuations in their auras. They seemed to be about to wake up.
After a long while, Wang Baole finally managed to calm down. He wasn't excited because his spirit had advanced to the hundred steps of the great circle of the Stellar Realm. Instead, he was shaken by the huge waves that had surged up in his heart. This was because … he wasn't blind. Although it still stung and tears of blood flowed down his cheeks, in the instant that the gigantic figure looked at him in the illusion, he had also seen … a black piece of wood nailed into the center of the figure's brows!
That black piece of wood … was not unfamiliar to him!
