The Demon Emperor gathered everyone gifted with space-time power together. After a careful count, he found there were nearly thirty thousand of them.
Most were of Human Race bloodlines.
It could not be helped. The Human Race had passed down its bloodlines through so many generations over the years that thirty thousand was actually a small number.
The Human Sovereign's lineage held an exalted position, and its members lived long lives. Gradually, although their bloodlines branched out more and more, their desire to have children also dwindled considerably.
Thus, their descendants numbered only a little over thirty thousand.
Demon Emperor Daochen housed these people separately in the Demon Emperor Palace, then trained them individually. Not only did he explain the Dao of space-time to them, but he also supplied vast quantities of resources so they could improve as quickly as possible.
Across the Primordial World, everyone worked feverishly to raise their cultivation.
Meanwhile, new changes had come to the Endless Abyss.
As though sensing the arrival of the Spacetime Warriors, after several days of successive assaults,
the Dark Beasts finally changed their strategy.
They halted their attacks from the Endless Abyss, and the entire abyss became utterly quiet.
No one felt relieved. In fact, everyone's nerves were stretched to the breaking point.
It was the calm before the storm. Everyone knew the real crisis was about to arrive.
After nearly ten days of quiet, when everyone was mentally and physically exhausted, the Great Void World faced its true crisis.
Hundreds of Abyssal Rifts appeared throughout the Great Void World.
Dark Beasts poured madly out of them, devouring the lives of the entire Great Void World.
Each life devoured produced a new Dark Beast. Calling it devouring was not quite accurate; it was more like transforming living beings into Dark Beasts.
