The Immortal Thorn Sect Leader's avatar appeared to be a gaunt old man.
A strange black aura coiled around his entire body.
These auras seemed to possess life, shrouding the area within three feet of him.
His logic was contained within them, a logic so peculiar that it seemed to carry an unusual infective power.
Wherever the aura passed, countless roots seemed to extend forth, burrowing into the deeper spacetime nearby, while the surrounding void grew dim.
Only after he left the area would these mysterious roots silently vanish.
Yet in the places where these roots had grown, the spacetime layer had already begun to wither.
It was as though all the essence contained within that stretch of spacetime had been sucked dry by some force.
Only when power from other regions of the cosmic void flowed in to replenish this dried-up spacetime would these abnormalities return to normal.
The Immortal Thorn Sect Leader's avatar descended upon the Northern World Cluster, but the Northern World Cluster was no longer what it had once been.
First, its area had shrunk by countless times, condensed into ten enormous world clusters.
Some of these world clusters were moving toward the storm region, while the others were moving away from the Cosmic Storm Zone.
The Immortal Thorn Sect Leader had come this time to probe these world clusters and seek out any that might possess the Three Realms System.
The avatars of the Seven Sovereigns had already searched the universe for a long time, and they had investigated most regions of the Five World Clusters.
But the Seven Sovereigns had their own open and covert struggles as well. They would never easily trust anyone else's conclusions.
They would personally probe every world cluster, in order to prevent someone from discovering the Three Realms System
