Amid the chaos, the Spirit Race formed the Myriad Spirits Great Formation under Donghua's command. Donghua stood at its heart, the phantom of the World Tree unfolding behind him, its trunk like a pillar holding up the heavens, its roots like a spreading net, and its branches and leaves like clouds hanging from the sky.
