Bai Xuan slowly raised his right hand, his five fingers gently curling inward.
In an instant, the entire world fell into absolute stillness.
Time lost all meaning at that moment, and space froze into eternity in that instant. Then came silent oblivion, the ultimate destruction that transcended all comprehension.
The entire world seemed to collapse in an instant. Billions of stars fell like grains of sand, turning into dust of nothingness.
The Galaxy's dazzling radiance dimmed amid oblivion, and the Universe's vast starry rivers lost their brilliance. The structure of space-time, like a fragile glass artwork, shattered layer by layer beneath Bai Xuan's will, revealing the deeper Void behind it.
That terrifying figure let out a howl that shattered dimensions. Its roar pierced through space-time, sending ripples beyond the world.
Its countless tentacles danced madly, each containing the power to destroy galaxies. Every lash could effortlessly tear open the Veil of space-time.
Yet those attacks, powerful to the extreme, crumbled inch by inch beneath Bai Xuan's hand like fragile spiderwebs, turning into nothingness.
"Boom!!!"
The foundations of the Universe trembled, and the laws of reality wailed.
Darkness and Radiance lost all meaning at that moment. The boundary between existence and nothingness was completely blurred.
The resistance that figure unleashed with all its strength caused every eyeball to erupt with destructive energy, every tentacle to release matter-annihilating power, and its entire existence to burn away its final source of darkness.
But before Bai Xuan, all of it was as futile as a child's struggle before the vast sea of stars.
Bai Xuan's palm continued to close, calm and composed.
"Bang!"
A dull sound that transcended space-time echoed throughout the world, then returned to silence.
Absolute darkness lasted for a billionth of an instant. In that moment, too brief even for thought
