Let's rewind time a bit.
When Gu Qing Shan was still hiding in the wreckage of the ship, only to be summoned by Wang Cheng.
On the other side.
Outside the Strife Zones.
The world of the Spire.
An unprecedentedly intense war was coming to an end.
Boom — — — —
Far away, the Spire that connected heaven and earth broke apart.
The Spire of Knowledge of the Old Gods had been destroyed!
A high-pitched female voice resounded across the entire world: 『Living beings created by the Old Gods, you know nothing of despair』
A deranged male voice rang out, "Your only value is the nutrients contained in your souls!"
』 A high-decibel chant erupted from both the male and female voices at the same time: 『Souls! Offer your souls to me, ahhh — — –』
With an ear-piercing scream, the monster stood at the center of the battlefield with its mouth wide open.
Everyone who was fighting fell to the ground.
Their souls flew out from their bodies and were sucked into the monster's mouth.
Countless souls on the battlefield flew towards the monster.
Only the people of God Institute weren't afraid of this soul-sucking attack. Other than them, everyone else had fallen into unprecedented despair.
The Combatants who ruled the 900 million World Layers couldn't do anything about it.
They abandoned their opponents from God Institute and unleashed their strongest attacks to attack the monster.
But their attacks were completely useless.
The monster stood there unscathed, continuing its soul-sucking attack.
Even quite a few Lord-class Combatants couldn't resist this suction force. Quite a few of their souls left their bodies on the spot and were sucked into the monster's mouth.
As for those who had the ability to resist, they were also in an unprecedented desperate situation.
With every passing second, their bodies were being destroyed by an invisible force, their souls no longer having anywhere to go.
In just a few breaths' worth of time, their bodies were destroyed by an invisible force, their souls no longer having anywhere to go.
At this point, their souls were no longer able to resist the monster's soul-sucking attack and were directly sucked away and eaten.
The number of people still alive on the battlefield was slowly decreasing.
The end of the 900 million World Layers seemed to be right in front of their eyes.
All of a sudden, an ocean-like blue light enveloped the entire battlefield.
Under the illumination of this blue light, the souls suddenly regained their freedom.
The monster's soul-sucking technique was interrupted.
『Who is it! Who dares to interrupt my meal!?
』 The male and female voices angrily shouted at the same time.
The people who were still alive on the battlefield let out cries of surprise and joy.
"Lady Black Sea!"
"Miss Black Sea, you're here!"
"We're saved."
"Please lead us into battle!"
Hearing the voices of the crowd, a sigh echoed in the boundless void.
Lady Black Sea's voice resounded in the ears of these lucky survivors: "I will send you into the Strife Zones, the divine barrier that the seven Gods had set up there will soon be activated, the entire Strife Zones will be hidden"
"No matter what, do not leave the Strife Zones, because within the entire 900 million World Layers, the Strife Zones are the only ones that are safe for now!"
"You have to preserve your strength, survive, and find a way to deal with it."
The survivors were bathed in the azure light, and a layer of deep blue ice crystals quickly condensed around their bodies.
The layer of ice froze them, and then —
All the ice crystals rose into the air and disappeared in an instant.
The monster silently watched this scene.
It tried several times, but found that it was unable to block this divine technique.
Only when everything was over did it look towards a certain spot in the void.
The monster's female voice chuckled and asked slowly, "Where did these people go?"
There was silence all around.
No one answered her.
But the female voice appeared even more triumphant: 「 Even I couldn't stop these living beings from escaping, I'm guessing that only Divinities would be able to do that — — - who would've thought, other than the seven Daemons, there were still Divinities that remained here and didn't escape from the 99 billion World Layers 」
The male voice spoke with a frenzied tone: 「 If you didn't escape, then your fate has already been decided!
」 They roared in unison: 「 You won't be able to escape, your fate has already come to an end 」
Within the boundless azure light, a woman suddenly let out a sigh.
She spoke: "Today, I will die, but not by being eaten by you"
As she spoke, the entire world began to collapse.
…
At another location.
All the remaining soldiers were sealed in a layer of solid azure ice crystals, teleported through countless worlds and arrived at the Strife Zones.
Like a meteor shower, the ice crystals quickly scattered across the 200 million World Layers of the Strife Zones.
The meteor shower ended in an instant.
A second later.
The figure of light's voice slowly resounded across every world in the Strife Zones.
With a solemn and sacred tone, the figure of light declared: 「 Announcement: The first follower to light the Tree of Divinity has been born 」
「 The path to Godhood has officially opened 」
「 The Divinity barrier set up by the Divinities will be activated 」
「 The Strife Zones will be hidden from the 900 million World Layers 」
「 From now on, anyone who leaves the Strife Zones will not be able to enter the Strife Zones again! 」
Within the 900 million World Layers, the entire Strife Zones slowly disappeared.
Everyone could no longer find the 200 million World Layers, nor did they have the means to travel between those worlds.
At this time, in the Strife Zones.
One of the countless azure ice crystals flew through the space vortex and landed in Greyhan world.
Around the ice crystal, countless mystical divine runes occasionally manifested.
— — these divine runes would ensure that the ice crystal wouldn't be disturbed or detected by any power.
Without a sound, the ice crystal flew through the sky and landed in a secluded desert of Greyhan world.
The ice crystal sank into the ground and was completely surrounded by darkness.
A while later.
A female voice resounded from within the ice crystal.
"Blade … Blade … Vow"
Oong!
An invisible ripple spread towards the outside of this world.
The dark underground.
The female voice coughed intensely, as if chanting that incantation just now had used up all of her power.
After a while, she finally managed to speak: "Who … is on the other side?"
An anxious voice resounded from near the ice crystal.
"Is it Yun Ji? Cloud Maiden of Calamity, lady Serena? "
This was Gu Qing Shan's voice.
…
Time quickly passed.
Greyhan world.
Dawn hadn't arrived yet, so this was the darkest moment of the day.
Far above the sky, the sound of flapping wings could be heard.
A bird flew through the darkness, descending straight down from the sky.
This bird didn't give off any powerful presence, so no matter what method they used to sense it, they could only come up with the same conclusion.
It was just an ordinary bird.
The bird descended like a bolt of lightning, flapping its wings as hard as it could.
— — -but it was still speeding up.
At a certain point.
The bird had already descended from the sky, about to reach the ground.
Then it disappeared.
A man wearing black armor and a golden mask suddenly appeared.
The man hovered in the air, staring down at the vast desert below.
He flashed and disappeared from where he stood, traversed a large distance, and landed on the ground.
Holding a piece of black cloth in his hand, the man released his inner sight and quickly found the location.
He ran forward, slowly crouched down in the middle of a sand dune.
He formed a hand seal with one hand.
Bzzt!
His spirit energy manifested as a gust of wind, blowing the sand and pebbles in front of him away.
A deep blue ice crystal appeared in front of his eyes.
Inside the ice crystal, a beautiful woman covered in blood had her eyes closed, in a deep coma.
The injuries on her body were horrifying. She was on the verge of death, and she was practically in a dying state.
