The expressions of the God Emperor powerhouses present all changed drastically. The panic in their hearts surged up like a tide, and even their breathing subconsciously became stagnant.
All of them are beings who stand at the pinnacle of the world, and have seen countless bloody storms, but at this moment, facing this void crack across the starry sky in front of them, everyone is terrified.
With so many God Emperor gathered here, it is difficult to even initially suppress the expansion of the crack, let alone completely solve it.
What makes them most uneasy is that they don't dare to think deeply about it.
What level of existence can cause such horrific destruction?
The aftermath of the battle could tear apart the starry sky and shake the foundation of the world. Could it be that the legendary Hundun Saint Emperor took action?
Everyone subconsciously raised their eyes and looked around at the extraterrestrial starry sky.
Apart from this group of people, there is no trace of other living beings, and even the remaining energy fluctuations are quickly dissipating, as if the battle that caused the catastrophe never left any trace.
"Could it be that... two top experts passed by here by chance during a battle and left immediately after the fight?"
One God Emperor couldn't help but murmured, his tone full of uncertainty.
This was the only explanation they could reluctantly accept at the moment, but as soon as he finished speaking, he shook his head again.
Even just the aftermath of the battle can tear open such a huge crack in the void. Hundun airflow is still overflowing from the edge of the crack, as if it wants to swallow up the entire starry sky.
This kind of power has already exceeded their understanding of "strong men". Just thinking about it makes all God Emperor present feel a sense of horror from the bone marrow.
"There is no other way! We must take action immediately!"
Just when everyone fell silent, an old man in gray robes with white beard and hair spoke first, his voice echoing in the starry sky with unmistakable urgency.
"We can't really watch this crack in the void continue to expand and eventually swallow the entire world, right?!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pressed in the direction of the crack.
The light golden power of law flowed from the fingertips, rushing towards the edge of the crack like a stream, trying to slow down its expansion. However, as soon as the power of law touched the crack, it was instantly crushed by the Hundun airflow surging inside, without causing even a ripple.
"Don't be stunned!"
Immediately after, a strong man wearing a purple robe and surrounded by purple thunder and lightning also shouted sharply, his eyes swept over the people present, his tone was full of anxiety.
"Look further, when the crack completely gets out of control, your sect and your old nest will all be swallowed up by this void crack!!!"
Before he finished speaking, he took the lead in sacrificing his own divine weapon.
A halberd covered with thunder patterns was thrown towards the crack with his hand.
The halberd turned into a streak of purple lightning in the air and plunged into the edge of the crack. The power of lightning spread along the body of the halberd and condensed into a purple light network outside the crack, trying to block the pull of the crack to the outside world.
But as soon as the optical network was formed, it was slightly deformed by the huge suction coming from the cracks, making a crunching sound, as if it was about to collapse in the next second.
None of the God Emperors present dared to sit idly by.
This crack in the void is related to the interests of everyone. Once the world is swallowed up, no matter how powerful they are, they will have nowhere to stay.
After a moment of hesitation, everyone started to move.
Someone formed a seal with their hands and recited obscure magic formulas. Countless complex space-time runes appeared around them. The runes flew towards the cracks like living creatures, trying to repair the broken starry sky barrier with Spacetime Principle.
Some people directly activated their own original power, condensing the power into a huge light shield, blocking it in front of the crack, and resisting the pulling force of the crack. Ripples continued to appear on the surface of the light shield, and every fluctuation made God Emperor's face turn a little pale.
Others joined forces to perform secret techniques, and the power of several laws of different colors intertwined together and turned into a huge chain, wrapping around both ends of the crack, trying to close the crack bit by bit.
All of them frowned, and there were even beads of sweat on their foreheads.
Even God Emperor found it extremely difficult to control such a huge power of law. Everyone's eyes Divine Capital were extremely solemn, and they did not dare to stop the movements of their hands, for fear that if they were a little negligent, their previous efforts would be in vain.
Although there are many of them, and they are all God Emperor strong men who can stand alone, they still seem to be powerless in the face of this crack in the void that can swallow the world.
The Hundun airflow surging in the cracks was like maggots attached to bones, constantly impacting the defense and repair formations they had set up. Every impact caused violent fluctuations in the formations.
A few of the weaker God Emperor were even shocked and took a few steps back, with a trace of blood spilling from the corners of their mouths. It is obviously not that easy to completely solve this big trouble.
They stared closely at the dark crack in the void ahead, the solemnity in their eyes gradually replaced by anxiety.
The Hundun airflow at the edge of the crack is still surging wildly, and the crack that originally spanned the starry sky is still slowly expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye.
With every additional expansion, the surrounding space vibrated more violently. Even the starry sky barrier under their feet was trembling slightly. An unprecedented ominous premonition made everyone's hearts sink to the bottom.
"This crack... is not an ordinary void crack at all!"
The voice of the old man in gray robe was filled with unconcealable fatigue, even a little hoarse. While struggling to maintain the brilliance flowing around him, he shouted to everyone, "Otherwise, with so many God Emperors working together, how could we not even be able to contain its expansion!!!"
Everyone looked at the sound and saw dozens of translucent glass fragments suspended between the old man's hands. The edges of those fragments were glowing with a faint golden light, and fine time and space runes were flowing on the surface.
This is not a refined magic weapon, but the form in which he forcibly embodied the Spacetime Principle he controlled!
Every fragment contains the majestic power of law, which is constantly flowing towards the edge of the crack, trying to fill the small gaps that keep appearing.
But as soon as the fragments touch the crack, a corner will be chewed away by the Power of Hundun inside, which is very heart-wrenching to watch.
The situation of other God Emperor is also similar.
Some of them were surrounded by silvery River of Spacetime shadows, and the river water surged towards the crack, but when it approached the crack, it was cut off abruptly, turning into light spots all over the sky and dissipating.
Some condensed Spacetime Principle into countless fine light filaments, trying to wrap around the edges of the cracks like a web. However, as soon as the light filaments were tightened, several of them would be torn off by the suction of the cracks. The moment of breakage, the shock would cause their blood to surge.
Despite everyone's best efforts, the expansion speed of the Void Crack has indeed slowed down significantly.
It was tearing visibly to the naked eye before, but now it seems to be held by invisible hands, and it seems extremely difficult to open every additional inch.
But no one God Emperor dared to let down their guard. They all knew clearly that this was just a temporary stalemate.
The Power of Hundun in the cracks seems to be endless, but their power of law continues to be consumed. If this continues, they will not be able to hold on for long.
Once there is a flaw in their defense, at least half of the entire world behind them will be swallowed up by this crack - at that time, countless living beings will be annihilated in Hundun, and everything they protect will be reduced to nothing.
"It really doesn't work..."
God Emperor, who was surrounded by an earthy yellow halo, gritted his teeth and spoke with a hint of determination in his voice, "The only thing we can do is push the whole world away! See if we can avoid this big crack in the void!"
His words shook everyone's minds - forcibly pushing the world would not only consume a massive amount of source power, but would also very likely cause space oscillations within the world. If not careful, it would even cause cracks in the world itself.
But right now, this seems to be the only way they can think of to save the world.
Everyone looked at the crack in the void that was still slowly expanding, and the anxiety on their faces was gradually replaced by powerlessness - most of everyone's power of law had been consumed, the brilliance around them had dimmed a lot, and even their breathing became heavy.
The previously condensed space-time runes began to show tiny cracks, and the defensive light network they jointly laid out was also crumbling under the impact of the Hundun airflow.
But the darkness at the edge of the crack was still swallowing up the starry sky inch by inch. They racked their brains, but could no longer think of a new way.
"Plan B... really need to be activated?"
Someone God Emperor whispered in a low voice, his tone full of hesitation.
The risk of forcibly pushing the world is too great. If you are not careful, it will be Ten Thousand Tribulations Beyond Redemption. But right now, this seems to be the only option.
Just when everyone looked solemn and prepared to discuss the details of launching the plan, a loud but somewhat casual voice suddenly sounded across the entire extraterrestrial starry sky without warning, exploding in everyone's ears like thunder:
"It's better for me to make up for the mistakes I made."
This voice sounded quite young, even with a hint of carelessness.
But the great power contained in the voice was like an invisible mountain weighing on everyone's hearts.
It was an aura that was superior to Spacetime Principle, as if the heaven and earth were trembling with this voice, making the God Emperor present subconsciously hold their breath, and there was an urge to bend down and worship in their hearts, and even the power of laws operating in the body almost stopped.
"Who?!"
The purple-robed strong man suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of vigilance and shock. The purple lightning around him suddenly surged, but under the suppression of that power, it suddenly restrained a bit.
Everyone looked around subconsciously, scanning the dark starry sky, the twinkling stars, and even the Hundun airflow at the edge of the crack.
But the sound seemed to come from all directions, and seemed to resound directly in everyone's consciousness. There was no source to be found, and they could not determine the location of the sound source at all!
Just when everyone was in shock, the old man in gray robe suddenly pointed at the crack in the void ahead, his voice trembled slightly with excitement, and shouted in disbelief, "Look! Something has changed!!!"
Hearing his voice, everyone hurriedly turned their heads to look.
The crack in the void that had been slowly expanding just now seemed to have been pressed on a reverse flow switch, and the dark crack was shrinking inward at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The surging Hundun airflow at the edge seemed to be smoothed by an invisible hand, and the originally ferocious cracks were quickly healing!
What's even more astonishing is that there is still a faint golden light in the healing area, and the torn starry sky barriers are like rebirth, recovering bit by bit, and even the remaining energy fluctuations are quickly dissipating.
This speed of healing shocked all God Emperor present and left them speechless.
More than a dozen of them God Emperor worked together and tried their best to barely slow down the expansion of the crack, and even continued to consume their own strength.
But this mysterious strong man just spoke out and easily caused the cracks to heal quickly before he showed up. Such a method was far beyond their understanding of a "strong man"!
"This... how is this possible?" a God Emperor murmured subconsciously, his eyes full of horror, "That mysterious strong man... what is his identity? Is he the legendary Hundun Saint Emperor?"
No one could answer his question. Everyone was staring at the rapidly healing cracks. In addition to shock, they felt deep awe in their hearts.
Being able to repair the cracks in the void so easily that even they were unable to do anything about, the strength of this mysterious strong man may have reached a level that they could not imagine.
Everyone was still trapped in the shock just now and had not recovered from the shock. Their eyes were fixed on the void in front of them - but in just a few breaths, the huge crack that had left them helpless and could swallow half of the world had been completely healed.
The original dark and ferocious crack disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a clear starry sky. The light of the stars filled the sky again, leaving not even a trace of Hundun airflow. Even the space that was previously chaotic due to the vibration of the crack was now restored to stability.
It was as if the thrilling crisis just now had never happened.
"Is... is this good?"
Someone God Emperor subconsciously stretched out his hand, tentatively releasing a ray of power of law. When he touched the starry sky in front of him, he only felt a warm space barrier, and there was no trace of any remaining cracks.
He opened his mouth, his face full of disbelief, and even his voice was a little wavy.
The catastrophe that a dozen or so of them had tried so hard to delay was actually so easily and completely solved by that mysterious powerhouse.
This gap is so huge that God Emperor, who are standing at the top of the world, all feel an indescribable feeling of insignificance.
The old man in gray robe looked at the calm starry sky in front of him, his lips trembled slightly, and he murmured in a low voice, "I'm afraid... I'm afraid Hundun Saint Emperor is taking action???"
His voice was not loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.
Hundun Saint Emperor is a realm that only exists in ancient legends. It is an immortal existence that is superior to God Emperor. It is said that it can control Power of Hundun and can reshape the starry sky and reverse time and space at will.
Apart from such beings, he really couldn't think of anyone else who could have such powerful means.
"Isn't this obvious?"
The strong man in purple robes on the side rolled his eyes at him, and his tone was a bit sure, but also a bit uncontrollable excitement, "If it weren't for Hundun Saint Emperor, who would have the qualifications to cause the scene of tearing the starry sky just now? And who would have the qualifications to completely repair this crack that even we are helpless to do in an instant???"
As he spoke, he clenched his fists subconsciously - Hundun Saint Emperor, that was a realm that they could never reach in their lifetime. Now it was possible to sense such an existence at close range. Just thinking about it made his heart surge.
Thinking that the mysterious strong man might be nearby, but had never shown up, the God Emperor people present suddenly became nervous.
Hundun Saint Emperor's power is unfathomable, even if the opponent just exudes aura randomly, it may make their hearts tremble.
But at the same time, there was unconcealable excitement in their hearts.
Since that strong man is willing to repair the cracks, he is obviously not a cruel and domineering person. If they have the opportunity to have close contact with such a being, even if they just take a look at it from a distance, it will definitely be a rare honor for them in this life!
If they can get some guidance from that senior, even just a word of advice, maybe they can break through the bottleneck and take a big step forward in their practice. This is undoubtedly a great opportunity for them!
But as soon as the idea came to mind, they all shook their heads in self-mockery - What is the identity of Hundun Saint Emperor?
Your vision has already transcended the ordinary world, so how could you easily stop for God Emperor like them?
Not to mention giving guidance on practice.
Such thoughts are, after all, just their wishful thinking.
Despite this, everyone's eyes continued to scan the surrounding starry sky, and there was still a faint expectation in their hearts, hoping to catch any trace of the mysterious powerhouse.
