As Blood Purgatory Venerable Chaos shattered a patch of space, the others followed suit and departed one after another, without lingering here. Those at the Heaven Lord level had never been in the habit of gathering in groups. Accustomed to coming and going alone, they each dominated their own domain wherever they went. Once they left this place, none had the slightest intention of traveling alongside another.
Naturally, this was also because they could not trust one another, lest some accident arise.
Even Candle Dragon, whose body had been stiff and rigid, slowly recovered at this moment. The Five-Decline Qi around him grew ever denser, yet his complexion improved somewhat instead. He stiffly turned his neck, glanced at Qiu Yan and Black Wind, then said nothing. With a wave of his hand, yin-yang power erupted, forcibly shattering the surrounding space, and his entire body fell into a black-and-white interwoven expanse.
With his departure, few people remained here. At a thought from Qiu Yan, Black Wind, refined into an External Incarnation, moved in accordance with his will. It turned in place, and Black Wind shot forth like a shuttle, piercing through space and plunging into a pitch-black realm of constant change, where fierce winds never ceased and the air was filled with corrosive, decaying, destructive auras.
Through the External Incarnation, Qiu Yan sensed this strange power and understood that this was a rare heaven-and-earth realm. Its nature already resembled the artistic conception of the External Incarnation, and after merging with the incarnation's aura, the attributes of the entire space began to change anew.
The next moment, the External Incarnation did not hesitate. Opening its mouth, it inhaled, and the surrounding space was actually drawn over like flowing water, streams upon streams falling into its mouth. Its aura steadily solidified and rose!
