Darkness, endless darkness.
The instant the Annihilation Singularity erupted, time and space seemed to lose all meaning. It was ultimate destruction beyond light and sound, total obliteration at the level of laws. Every corner of the Douluo Continent plane was shrouded in that all-devouring darkness. The senses of all living beings were stripped away, leaving only the most instinctive fear and despair deep within their souls when faced with ultimate nothingness.
Heaven Dou City, Star Luo City, the Extreme Northern Icefield, the endless ocean... Everyone who saw that destructive singularity closed their eyes and waited for the final end. Ning Fengzhi held the unconscious Ye Lingling tightly. Tang Chen leaned on the Clear Sky Hammer and raised his head toward the heavens. Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing embraced each other. Bo Saixi and Gu Yuena gazed into the sky... Their eyes held despair and unwillingness, but even more than that, the resolve to live and die with this land.
Yet the complete annihilation they had expected did not descend at once.
At the very instant the endless darkness was about to devour everything, a faint yet incomparably tenacious Nine-Colored Light lit up stubbornly, like the last lone lamp amid a raging storm!
It was Ling Yun!
He burned the Chaos Dragon God's divine core, transforming his lifelong cultivation, all his insights into the Great Dao of Chaos, and his conviction to protect every living being of this land into his final strength! The Chaos Domain expanded to an unprecedented limit, like a fragile yet incomparably warm bubble, barely enveloping the entire Douluo Continent plane!
"Protect... Never... give up!"
Ling Yun's will exploded within the souls of all living beings like thunder! It was a cry that transcended life and death, transcended all limits!
Rumble—!!!
The destructive energy of the Annihilation
