Beneath the distant vault of heaven.
A dazzling scarlet pillar of light shot up between the mountains, shattering the clouds and tearing apart the void.
The aura of that pillar was utterly terrifying. It had not been emitted by a cultivator, but was formed from some strange and bizarre calamity power!
That earthshaking boom from earlier had been caused when this scarlet pillar burst through the clouds.
"What a shocking spectacle!"
Cai Gou's heart clenched, and he blurted out, "No need to think about it—this place must be incredibly dangerous. We'd better keep far away!"
But Su Yi said, "Let's take a look."
He strode toward the distant mountains.
Cai Gou froze, his expression shifting several times. Yet in the end, he gritted his teeth and followed.
Given his ordinarily cautious and steady nature, he would never have approached such an unknown danger.
But now, he could only follow.
Compared to those unknown perils, he was even more worried that Su Yi, the Fate Official, might turn ruthless.
The mountains stretched vast and wild, with Chaos Mist billowing through them, presenting an ancient, primordial scene of savage desolation.
A scarlet pillar, red as blood, surged up amid the mountains, ripping through the sky and piercing the clouds, staining the heavens above the peaks an eye-searing crimson.
The pillar was far too strange, radiating an aura of taboo. Merely watching it from afar made one's mind feel oppressed.
Quietly, Su Yi flicked his sleeve, and a small boat appeared out of thin air, carrying him and Cai Gou toward the distant mountains.
The boat was only about ten feet long, scattering strands of dreamlike Chaos light rain.
Cai Gou was astonished to discover that, while aboard the boat, it was as though they had been cut off from every aura outside.
