In the vast, boundless Dark Universe, countless multicolored points of light like fireflies filled the space.
A dark crimson spaceship sped through the Dark Universe at ten times the speed of light.
Inside one of the spaceship's quiet chambers, Shen Mu sat cross-legged, his consciousness immersed in his Inner World.
A lake roughly ninety kilometers in diameter trembled violently. The crystalline mist energy filling the entire Inner World crazily converged and merged into the lake, undergoing its final transition.
The entire lake expanded at an astonishing rate. Waves surged and tides churned as it crashed outward in every direction.
