But a sudden cracking sound jolted countless people awake!
"Crack... crack..."
The sound of things splitting rolled across the sky!
At that moment, the stunned Great Powers looked up again!
They saw cracks spreading across the Fourth Heavenly Dipper Layer like a mirror beginning to shatter!
By now, many Great Powers had seen this too often to be surprised!
After all, it had happened three times already! Three times the sky had shattered and fallen. They were almost used to it!
Now it was the fourth layer, so naturally they weren't surprised!
In the distance, Xuanming saw what was happening and whipped her head toward Ren, worry in her eyes!
She knew that Ren, who was refining the Heavenly Dipper Origin, would be affected whenever a Heavenly Dipper Layer shattered! The destruction of the first three layers had already wounded him badly. Now that he had refined ninety percent of the Origin, the fourth layer's collapse could do far worse!

Xuanming gazed at Ren. The meaning in her eyes was lost on everyone else!
But many understood that the Heavenly Dipper's collapse would inevitably drag Ren down with it while he refined its Origin!
Not long ago, Zhu Jiuyin had refined only thirty percent of the Origin, yet he had coughed up mouthfuls of blood!
Ren had refined ninety percent. How could he possibly escape injury?
Worse, someone had shared the backlash and the consequences of the Heavenly Dipper's earlier collapses. Now ninety percent of the Origin had entered Ren's body, and that backlash would not be easy to bear!
Knowing this, everyone turned to Ren to see what he would do!
Even Ruthless, who had just been contending with the Shen Ni Phantom, looked at him and murmured, "Are you sure?"
