Dusk was like blood, staining the land for thousands of miles.
The setting sun hung halfway below the horizon, tearing the clouds into tufts of crimson-purple fragments suspended above the firmament created by the Purple Ring World Stabilizing Mirror.
The wind wailed, sweeping up countless layers of sand and withered grass.
Outside Reverse Fire Castle.
A tall figure clad in pitch-black battle armor slowly appeared. He strode through the howling air like a drawn blade.
Behind him.
The Magnetic Storm Thunder Prison, already expanded to a hundred miles in diameter, slowly floated along behind him.
More than four thousand Thunderball Creatures flickered with crackling arcs of electricity as they drifted through the air.
Eight satellite gun platforms, fourteen laser turrets, forty spider-shaped machines, and thirty-six Reverse Fire Soldier Remains lay in wait, ready to strike.
Qi Fan and thirteen other Creation Realm cultivators from Great Xia followed close behind Chen Yan, each of them silent as a mountain.
With every step Chen Yan took toward the front, waves of Internal Force rippled beneath his feet. The ground began to vanish inch by inch, and the void split open, as if he were treading a path through nothingness.
Chen Yan's gaze was as deep as an abyss, concealing an invincible majesty powerful enough to shake heaven and earth.
He surveyed the world, faint golden radiance flowing across his Divine Armor.
Then, it suddenly burst forth!
Hummm!!!
Blinding golden light spread for thousands of miles, tearing through the layered clouds and eclipsing the setting sun.
He was the center of the world, a towering banner from Great Xia, seeming as if he would never fall, never collapse.
The Ancient God Beasts' howls from the Dark Devouring Mother Nest seemed to be suppressed by the golden light, reduced to whimpers.
