In the Eternal Night, a breathtakingly beautiful, vast tableau in the sky was gradually unfolding.
Crimson Patterns wound upward, forming an exquisite design in the air. Within this pitch-black Eternal Night, it was as if a Vast Lighthouse had been ignited.
It was difficult to describe such a magnificent sight in words. It was no longer merely a visual delight, but a violent tremor that struck directly at the soul.
Anyone who looked over there for even a moment would feel their entire mind sink into it, unable to pull themselves free.
But none of that held any substance for Bai Zhi. Its allure was not even as great as that self-destructing Great Eyeball from before.
His attention was focused more on the enormous figure advancing toward the Graveyard through the darkness.
—It was the Anomaly known as the Cleaner in the Core Zone.
The Cleaner was accompanied by countless Monsters. They blanketed the sky and stretched as far as the eye could see, forming an endless tide of dark clouds.
"Let's go."
The Gravedigger gazed calmly at the Cleaner slowly approaching them, as well as the Graveyard being gradually devoured by those Monsters, and spoke in an equally calm tone.
As the earth shook violently, a card glowing with faint pale gold light flew out from beneath the Small Wooden House. As it passed by the two of them, a strand of light unfurled from the card, carrying them toward the Cleaner.
The moment that Puzzle Card entered the Cleaner's enormous body, the Shadow Puppet on the bus far beyond the Graveyard suddenly vanished.
A moment later, amid a deathly stillness like the Void itself, Bai Zhi opened his eyes.
A bright moon hung overhead as fireflies danced through the air.
—He was standing within a boundless Star Sea.
