The Great Void.
Skyblue lightning surged, with wind and rain following in its wake. From within emerged a man in a plain white robe, his features exceptionally refined, three strands of the Wind-Thunder Mystical Mark at his brow.
His breathing became wind and rain; his calls became thunder. Walking through the Great Void, he had scarcely used any divine abilities or spells. Through the resonance between heaven and man, the Great Void lent its own aid, allowing him to traverse space at will.
