"Fellow Daoists, let us leave first."
"The Eternal Immortal Spirit is strange. We may have been tainted by the Immortal Realm's great Ominousness."
"We should prioritize inscribing our marks upon the Great Dao Ranking."
"Indeed!"
The moment their words fell, their gazes turned serious as they prepared to flee.
But at that very moment!
—Rumble rumble rumble!!!
From beyond the Boundless Northern Desolation Realm, an inconceivable immortal radiance struck down like heavenly tribulation.
It was a colossal Heaven and Earth Phantom emerging from the chaos, spanning the universe and obscuring the entire Star Domain. Its sheer size was beyond naming, beyond imagination!
It had not truly descended. It was merely the guidance of a wisp of will, a gleam from a Dao realm. Yet in an instant, every formation, barrier, and seal in the Immortal Realm collapsed.
"Ah?"
"Th-That is?!"
"Not good, a great calamity! Retreat!"
The phantom slowly descended into the world.
It resembled an ancient great realm that did not belong to the entire Immortal Realm. Chaos was its soil, myriad Daos its mountains, and billions of stars flowed within it like dust.
Amid the hazy Heaven and Earth, great powers seemed to vaguely discern boundless immortal cities upon it, all formed by innate creation. There were Undying heavenly steles engraved with the Life Immortal Source, and blurry immortal figures standing atop mountains, seas, and clouds—each one an Ancient Great Dao Immortal!
Just at that instant.
Boom!
The sound of heaven collapsing rang through Heaven and Earth.
The entire universe suddenly dimmed!
Even the blazing suns of the Ninth Heaven abruptly went out, turning into ashen twilight.
A colossal shadow spanning the Star Wilderness seemed to slowly step into this Immortal Realm Era!
It was not a mountain, not the heavens, not a continent, nor anything
