If the world were a painting, and all living things were the colorful strokes of human figures embellishing that painting,
then at this moment,
accompanied by the world-shattering collision deep within the nine layers of the Ominous Domain, boundless power pierced through heaven, earth, and the void,
and the world itself was torn open from the middle, like an entire painting being pierced through!
The living beings dwelling within it,
along with the shattered, unfurled paper of the painting, were flung away!
The same was true in the real world.
The entire capital split apart in an instant. Vast stretches of space were cleaved apart and sent tumbling dozens or even hundreds of miles away by the terrifying impact!
The land that had once been there was reduced to a vast abyss of nothingness that had swallowed all things, without the slightest glimmer of light.
It could still be counted as a blessing amid misfortune.
Because of the protection inherent in the world's power, the capital was not annihilated by that erupting force. Instead, space itself was torn apart and shattered, flinging the entire city dozens or even hundreds of miles away beneath the terrifying impact!
This kept the capital's millions of inhabitants from being reduced to ashes by that terrifying strike.
But amid the violent upheaval that split the city into pieces, houses collapsed, city walls crumbled, and the earth cracked open. The capital had nearly become a wasteland, and the countless people living there still suffered devastating losses.
Those who survived struggled to their feet.
Their gazes fixed upon the empty, dark abyss of nothingness ahead.
Their eyes were utterly vacant!
The enormous dark abyss stretched beyond sight!
That entire section of the world had caved in!
Not only had the light vanished—even sound seemed to have fallen
