The Forbidden Lands trembled, blood-red light suffusing the entire realm.
An enormous opening seemed to have torn through the void above the Forbidden Lands, a breach as vast as its entire sky.
That blood-red radiance was like a wound across the whole Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, shrouding the entire Forbidden Lands in bloody light.
An elderly man in black slowly walked into the Forbidden Lands. At that moment, even its restrictions seemed to have vanished because of the Calamity of the Nine Heavens.
The black-clothed old man held a massive sword, looking somewhat desolate and lonely.
The entire Forbidden Lands was as silent as night, without a soul in sight.
He alone had come to stop this Calamity of the Nine Heavens.
The few remaining people of the Difficult Realm throughout the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths had all disappeared or become trapped where they stood before the Calamity of the Nine Heavens arrived...
The Black-Clothed Elder looked around, but in the end, said nothing.
The bloody light above the Forbidden Lands churned ceaselessly as the Black-Clothed Elder waited in silence, alone with his massive sword.
It was as though the entire Calamity of the Nine Heavens had fallen upon his shoulders alone in an instant...
"Am I the only one?" The Black-Clothed Elder gave a faint, desolate smile and let out a deep sigh.
"The Calamity of the Nine Heavens ten thousand years ago wasn't like this..."
The Black-Clothed Elder smiled, tilted his head back to gaze at the blood-red firmament above, and murmured to himself, "I promised my master that I would protect the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, whatever the cost."
"Even without reaching Sainthood Entry, I can still do it."
"Even all alone, this little Peng Bird can surely do it..."
Boom!
Heaven and earth
