The towering Xun Mu, like a pillar propping up the heavens, suddenly faded away.
The blood moon vanished from the sky. At some point, the enormous pupil had disappeared without a trace, and the surging Tribulation Lightning was nowhere to be seen.
[Gazing at the Moon in a Cage, Line Between Immortal and Mortal], [All Living Beings, Ferry of the Sea of Suffering], and [Ten Thousand Feet of Red Dust, Fear Me as Heaven]—three immortal arts that defied Heavenly Law—seemed to have been erased from this world in an instant, vanishing completely.

In the void, translucent contours writhed like living things, squeezing inward from all sides. The entire world grew smaller and smaller.
