Fortunately, the earth-shattering God-Demon War seemed to be drawing to a close.

After narrowly dodging a Lava Waterfall pouring down from the sky, Huo Yuhao and Ice Empress Tian Meng finally witnessed the end of the battle with their own eyes, from the edge of a relatively stable stretch of Broken Land.

The Mysterious People had slaughtered the monsters, working together to kill the last enormous fiend before sealing the swirling Scarlet Gate.

Once the earth-shaking battle finally ended, they witnessed another miracle beyond imagination.

The Mysterious People gathered together to tend to their wounded companions.

Their leader, meanwhile, waved his arms and formed strange hand seals. At his gestures, the shattered sky and the mountains and land spun and danced before coming together again.

When all fell still, the Broken Mountains had reunited, the scattered lava had returned underground, and the fractured crust had joined back together.

It was like a Divine Miracle!

Huo Yuhao stared, dumbfounded, at the sight of one person reshaping the world through sheer power.

When that world-restoring power faded and everything returned to calm, the Mysterious People naturally noticed Huo Yuhao standing there.

"Hmm? What's that boy doing here?" their leader asked.

"I'm not sure. This area is a Forbidden Zone on this continent. Normally, there shouldn't be any humans here..."

"This isn't about whether he's human. How did he get into the Illusion Space?"

"Perhaps the Spatial Fluctuation had some unusual effect. It's an exception; the Sacred Hall Classics have records of similar cases."

After a brief discussion, one of the Mysterious People raised a hand and drew a circle.

In the next instant, a ring of Golden Red Flowing Fire appeared before Huo Yuhao. The Mysterious People stepped through it and appeared in front of him.

Brother Sky Dream, who had already retreated into Huo Yuhao's Sea of Consciousness, could only stare and exclaim, "Holy crap!"

There were Space-Type Soul Skills on Douluo Continent, but very few were this absurd!

And if this wasn't a Soul Skill, but an ability anyone could learn, then it was even more incredible!

"Boy, how did you get in here?" one of the Mysterious People asked.

"I... I was looking for my companion, then I accidentally ran into something that seemed like Spatial Turbulence, and it sucked me in..." Huo Yuhao answered honestly, then asked hesitantly, "May I ask... are you gods?"

The Mysterious People exchanged smiles. Then the one who had spoken before answered, "If you mean the prisoners trapped in that so-called Divine Realm, unable to live freely, then no."

The Mysterious Person's casual words left Huo Yuhao utterly stunned. It took him several seconds to recover.

Then he asked urgently, "Then what should I call you?"

"Just call us Guardian Mages..." After answering Huo Yuhao gently, the Mysterious Person continued before he could say anything else. "All right, boy. Your adventure ends here."

"We're not gods. You may have something to ask of us, but we can't grant it. Goodbye, little one."

With that, the Mysterious Person pushed out a hand. Huo Yuhao's view changed, and he tumbled out of a swirling Golden Red Fire Ring.

Once he steadied himself, he hurriedly tried to speak again, only to realize he was back on a small mountain. Snow and wind howled around him. Before his eyes lay an enormous crater and a Giant Ice Bear crying in grief.

"No! Don't!" Huo Yuhao spun around in a panic, but the Mysterious People were nowhere to be seen.

"Please, I'll pay any price! I'm only asking you to bring my mother back to life!"

"Please!!!"

His pleas mingled with the wind and snow and carried far away, but no one answered.

After a long while, Huo Yuhao fell to his knees on the snowy peak, sinking into despair.

A little later, Tian Meng's voice sounded in his mind. "All right, Yuhao. I know what it's like to see hope only to lose it, but you have to stay strong!"

"So what if those people ignored you? Today they don't give you the time of day. Tomorrow, we'll make them look up to us!"

"You can't lose heart like this. I'm still waiting for you to Become God in three years and take me to the Divine Realm to live in Eternity!"

Even Ice Empress offered a rare word of comfort. "Things don't always go as we wish, Yuhao. We can't expect everyone to answer our prayers."

"Don't give up. If this chance is gone, then all it means is that we have to walk the Path to Godhood in Three Years again! Wasn't that what you planned to do before you met them?"

"Never give up hope! Give it everything you've got! Keep going until you succeed! Isn't that what you believe in?!"

"I know, Ice Empress, Brother Sky Dream." Huo Yuhao sighed and slowly got to his feet, brushing the snow off himself. His voice was low. "I haven't given up hope. I'm just disappointed that the chance slipped through my fingers..."

"You're right. I'll keep going until the day Mom wakes up again!"

He gave one last look at the Giant Ice Bear in the crater, still letting out occasional cries of grief, then tightened his collar and turned to leave.

Just then, a faint voice reached his ears:

"Interesting boy. Go and seek it out. When you're steadfast enough, when your resolve is strong enough, the Sacred Hall's doors will naturally open to you..."

Huo Yuhao froze midstep. A flush of excitement rose to his face, and he clenched his fists instinctively!

The next moment, he took a deep breath and started walking again, heading toward the distant snowy plains.

Though he mourned Snow Empress's fall, he couldn't stop moving forward!

The boy's figure slowly disappeared into the wind and snow on the Heavenly Screen.

In the real world, this terrifying sequence had left the Worldview of every audience member across Douluo Continent shattered!

People still remembered the previous grand spectacle: Snow Empress's self-detonation, and the Heavenly Screen showing the soul-shaking sight of a snow avalanche and storm turning into Heaven's Wrath through Huo Yuhao's eyes!

The spectacle before that had been Ice Empress's Sacrifice to Huo Yuhao. A jade-green pillar of light had shot into the sky, turning the entire heavens into an upside-down emerald!

After being struck by those two successive spectacles, people's capacity for shock had been pushed to its limits.

But no one had expected the battlefield Huo Yuhao stumbled into through the Spatial Fluctuation on the Heavenly Screen to be so awe-inspiring!

Mountains danced through the air, lava poured down like waterfalls! Snow rode the winds, the earth hung upside down! And there was the Crimson Gate, deep and terrifying as a vortex!

Every sight went beyond anything people could imagine!

Even in their dreams, most people could never picture such wondrous and bizarre scenes!

And when each of these unimaginable sights appeared before everyone, they delivered the purest kind of visual impact!

The moment the Image Dimension Battlefield came into view, most people across the continent—even most Soul Masters—reacted just like Huo Yuhao on the Heavenly Screen!

They were so stunned that their minds went blank and they lost the ability to speak!
