Boom!
The previous epoch!
Those four words exploded in Jieyin, Zhunti, and Randeng's minds like a bolt of chaotic divine lightning!
Their pupils contracted to the extreme in an instant!

"And the 'epoch' you speak of is a complete cycle from this bubble's birth to its destruction."
These words completely overturned the worldview of every native being of the Primordial Wilderness within the tent.
They had always believed that the Primordial Wilderness was boundless
