"With our strength, we'd likely expend all our power before even traversing the Wind Sea."
"You speak wisely. We lack the Origin Power. Once we enter the Wind Sea, our strength will deplete rapidly."
Not only did Qin Hanchu deem it too dangerous, but several other Divine Emperors also opposed entering the Wind Sea.
Rumble...
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the churning grey mist rapidly approached.
And behind this grey mist was the golden Divine Fire of Destruction.
This Divine Fire of Destruction was precisely the power of the nine Great Sun Golden Crows.
After reaching the divine realm, these individuals had never paid attention to time.
But at this very moment, they once again felt the torment of days passing like years.
They were now like lambs awaiting slaughter, watching the butcher approach with a cleaver in hand.
A thousand years later, the explosion aftermath from the Divine Realm finally surged.
Despite the passage of a millennium, this explosion aftermath remained terrifying.
Rumble...
The dreadful explosion aftermath impacted Qin Hanchu and the others' divine formations.
This defense, comparable to that of an Ancestor, vibrated wildly as Qin Hanchu and the others roared, pouring their strength into the divine formations.
If the divine formations shattered, death awaited them.
Boom boom...
The explosion aftermath not only struck Qin Hanchu and the others but also rushed towards the Taiyin Divine Realm.
The explosion aftermath collided with the power of the Wind Sea, igniting countless more explosions.
Rumble!
At this moment, the Taiyin Divine Tree of the Taiyin Divine Realm suddenly emitted a brilliant azure light.
With the appearance of the azure light, the temperature of the entire Taiyin Divine Realm dropped by tens of thousands of degrees.
The fierce wind, mixed with the Taiyin chilling energy, spread outwards.
Under the invasion of the Taiyin chilling energy, even the void was frozen.
"How could this be? Hurry, escape!"
Within the Taiyin Divine Realm, Ancestor-level powerhouses like the Divine Nourishing Tree and the Myriad Demon Ancestor were filled with terror.
They had originally believed that the Taiyin Divine Realm would block the attack of the Great Sun Divine Fire, but they never expected the Taiyin Divine Realm itself to undergo such a mutation.
Two Ancestors, unable to evade in time, were directly engulfed by the Taiyin chilling energy.
They were instantly blown into ice shards by the chilling wind.
The Divine Nourishing Tree and other Ancestors fled outwards in panic, but their speed could not match the Taiyin chilling wind.
Ancestors fell one after another amidst the Taiyin chilling wind.
Even ancient Ancestors like the Divine Nourishing Tree perished unwillingly in the Taiyin chilling wind.
At this moment, Qin Hanchu and the others were still resisting the explosion aftermath of the Divine Realm and had no time to notice the mutation in the Taiyin Divine Realm.
Boom...
With a loud bang, the divine formations could no longer hold and exploded.
With the explosion of the divine formations, Qin Hanchu and the others lost their strongest protection.
The Divine Emperors in the outermost layer directly bore the brunt of the explosion aftermath.
These Divine Emperors lasted only a few minutes before being annihilated by the explosion aftermath.
Qin Hanchu hastily activated the protection of the Five Elements Divine Banner, struggling to hold on.
Five minutes later, the explosion aftermath from the Divine Realm finally passed.
Qin Hanchu was already extremely weak. If the explosion aftermath had lasted a few more minutes, he would not have been able to endure.
Seeing that the explosion aftermath had ended, he quickly took out divine pills to replenish his divine power.
"It's over. Our resistance was futile."
The last survivors were in despair because the nine Great Sun Golden Crows had arrived, carrying the world-ending fire.
Even though the Great Sun Golden Crows were still far away, that world-ending fire had already surged forth.
It was at this moment that Qin Hanchu suddenly turned around.
He saw the Wind Sea behind him suddenly churn.
Immediately after, Qin Hanchu felt a bone-chilling cold.
Qin Hanchu quickly moved towards the direction of the world-ending fire.
Ah!
As soon as Qin Hanchu left, more than a dozen Divine Emperors died in the Taiyin chilling wind.
Amidst the screams of terror, the Divine Emperors around Qin Hanchu died one by one.
Some were turned to ash by the world-ending fire, while others were blown into ice shards by the Taiyin chilling wind.
Qin Hanchu knew he was doomed, but he still made a final struggle.
However, some had already given up their futile resistance, perishing in despair within the sea of fire.
Soon, only Qin Hanchu remained.
On his left was the surging sea of fire, and on his right was the howling chilling wind.
Qin Hanchu's eyes lit up: "In the instant they clash, is there perhaps a glimmer of life?"
With this thought, Qin Hanchu intently focused on the movements of the two forces.
Based on their speeds, he quickly adjusted his position.
The clash between the power of the sea of fire and the power of the chilling wind indeed made the middle area very safe.
At least, Qin Hanchu was not dead so far.
Although he was alive now, he knew this balance would not last long.
Qin Hanchu forced himself to calm down, wanting to find a ray of hope.
Just then, he felt that the surrounding power was somewhat different.
This power seemed to be generated by the collision of the contemptuous fire and the Taiyin chilling wind.
Qin Hanchu now had no other choice but to try any possibility.
He sat down cross-legged and began to absorb this special power.
As this power entered his body, Qin Hanchu discovered that his divine seal was undergoing a change.
In less than three minutes, Qin Hanchu's divine seal melted into liquid.
Even though the divine seal had melted into liquid, Qin Hanchu felt no discomfort whatsoever.
Although he did not feel any increase in strength so far, Qin Hanchu did not give up.
At this moment, he had no other path to take.
Qin Hanchu absorbed the special power with all his might, hoping to survive against all odds.
As the special power increased, Qin Hanchu's divine seal gradually transformed into a sphere.
And at this very moment, the balance between the world-ending fire and the Taiyin chilling wind was broken.
The arrival of the nine Great Sun Golden Crows directly destroyed Qin Hanchu's physical body.
Rumble...
Amidst the explosions, a sphere was knocked flying.
This sphere was the transformation of Qin Hanchu's divine seal.
Because of that special power, Qin Hanchu's clone divine seal was not destroyed.
Although the divine seal still existed, Qin Hanchu had lost consciousness.
The collision between the world-ending fire and the Taiyin chilling wind stirred up earth-shattering explosions.
The entire universe was affected by the power of this explosion.
The clash of the two forces lasted for hundreds of thousands of years.
Only when the nine Golden Crows had exhausted the Great Sun Divine Fire did the universe gradually return to calm.
The current universe was a vast expanse of gray, like the primordial chaos.
The difference was that now, the universe contained the Great Sun Divine Realm and the Taiyin Divine Realm.
Tens of billions of years later, the gray universe transformed into an endless starry sky.
Stars of various shapes floated in the starry sky.
Initially, these stars were dim and lusterless, but as time passed, they began to emit a soft glow.
This light was not from the Great Sun Divine Realm but was emitted by the stars themselves.
After countless eons, on a planet within the starry sky.
Whoosh whoosh...
Qin Hanchu suddenly sat up straight, as if waking from a nightmare.
"Where is this?"
Qin Hanchu looked around in confusion. Hadn't he died in the world-ending catastrophe?
Could it be that he had survived the world-ending catastrophe by virtue of that special power?
