"That is..."
The scene behind the stone wall left Chen Fan frozen in place.
An endless, dry riverbed stretched as far as the eye could see.
The riverbed was covered in scars.
These were the traces of battle, and everything spoke of desolation.
In the center of the riverbed stood a figure...
...
In the hollow eye sockets of the skeletal Chen Fan, divine light flickered.
That divine light was pure shock.
Someone.
At the end of the long river, behind the stone wall, on the dry riverbed, a figure stood.
Who could have imagined? Dafeng Novel Network.
"Hiss."
It was the sound of drawing in breath.
Even though Chen Fan was in a skeletal state, without flesh and blood, all his bodily functions were intact.
He was truly drawing in a cold breath in his heart.
He recalled what Kuang Di and Chu Lao Mo had said before.
"Scram."
On that day, Kuang Di had spied on this place and heard the word 'scram'.
Chen Fan guessed that this voice might have come from behind the stone wall.
Of course, it was only a guess.
And now, he saw a figure standing on the riverbed, a figure that had stood here for an unknown number of years.
Amidst the myriad scars, there was only one eternal, unyielding figure.
The body was as straight as a flagpole.
Although the face could not be seen, Chen Fan felt an boundless killing intent.
"Can... can you hear me?" he asked tentatively.
His voice pierced the stone wall and entered the riverbed.
"..."
Silence, stillness.
In his ears, there was only the whistling sound of the physical Great Dao blowing and flowing.
The figure remained motionless.
Like an eternal sculpture.
"Crack."
The crack in the stone wall healed.
From beginning to end, the figure did not move.
All that entered the River of Rules was the physical rules.
"Boom."
The vibrating River of Rules began to heal itself.
This time, the gap was quite large. The physical Great Dao, blown into the River of Rules, caused turmoil in the river.
The floating human physical Great Dao fell into the River of Rules like raindrops.
Everything was like a dream.
"Rumble."
The river continued to open.
This time, the rules of the physical Great Dao that poured in were more than several times larger than before.
The length of the River of Rules surged, instantly reaching twenty-five thousand zhang.
A full ten thousand zhang was added.
"Haha."
Lü Feng was swimming in the River of Rules.
It felt so good, such unadulterated joy.
At this moment, Lü Feng was like a favored child of heaven and earth, madly absorbing this hard-won opportunity and enlightenment.
As for Chen Fan, he fell into deep thought.
Who was that figure?
What did the riverbed represent?
The human physical Great Dao must be related to this.
But why was it here, at the end of his River of Rules?
Answers were never thought of, but found.
...
"City Lord."
Chen Fa, lost in thought, was startled by a call.
Within the long river, only those who had merged with the River of Rules could transmit their voice.
"Xi Qiu?"
It was Xi Qiu's voice.
If there was nothing, Xi Qiu would not have contacted him proactively.
There must be something.
*Shriiiik.*
The River of Rules unfolded.
"Boom."
The moment the River of Rules opened, an aura of Great Annihilation rushed into it.
"What is that?" Chen Fan was stunned.
This aura was different from destruction; it was of a higher intensity.
It was the aura of Great Annihilation.
"Buzz buzz buzz."
At the same time, from all directions, came a dense sound of wings flapping.
Chen Fan suddenly looked up and saw the shattered sun hanging in the sky.
At this moment, the shattered sun was already riddled with holes.
Dense cracks appeared on it.
In the sky, void rifts were constantly spreading.
Chen Fan was stunned: "How long has it been?"
Everything before him indicated something.
The Kuang Realm had begun to be destroyed.
"Rumble."
Throughout the heavens and earth, powerful auras crisscrossed the land.
The entire Central Domain was filled with countless surges of pressure and powerful auras.
Destruction had begun.
"City Lord."
Chu Lao Mo shot up into the sky, with the ethereal Kuang Di by his side.
Chen Fan was stunned for a long time: "How long have I been gone..."
"Ten days."
Chu Lao Mo replied, "City Lord, the destruction of the Kuang Realm has begun. What should we do now?"
The threat of the Four Emperors still lingered.
Both Kuang Di and Chu Lao Mo didn't know what to do.
It was fortunate that Xi Qiu had contacted the City Lord, otherwise the two of them would have run away.
"..."
Chen Fan did not answer immediately, but looked up at the sky again.
In the sky, the shattered sun had begun to collapse, and pieces of the sun were falling from the sky.
Initially, the fragments were only the size of a fist.
But as the fragments fell, their size gradually increased, eventually resembling mountains crashing down.
Each fragment was like this.
Outside the Central Domain, hundreds of millions of world-devouring locusts surrounded the Central Domain, madly devouring its vitality.
Everything behind them turned into chaos.
The world barrier of the Kuang Realm had already disappeared.
The aura of Great Annihilation permeated the heavens and earth.
"Ten days?"
Chen Fan never expected that it would take ten days to break through the stone wall this time.
"Boom."
In the north, above Anping Manor.
On a vast river, Dao River's figure appeared.
His voice resonated throughout the entire north: "Great Annihilation has begun. For the citizens of the Northern Realm, those who wish to live can seek refuge in my river."
As soon as the words fell, countless figures shot up into the sky and rushed into the river.
At the same time, from the east, the Broken Blade; from the west, the Giant; from the south, the Fierce Tiger... all sounded their calls.
The Four Great Powers began to gather their forces.
Figures, like a vast expanse, soared into the sky.
At this moment, anyone who could stand out was an ultimate powerhouse.
"Boom."
Suddenly, a colossal coffin appeared.
Zang Tian had arrived.
"Those who are unwilling to pledge allegiance to others can come to me for refuge." Zang Tian spoke.
He had not died last time and was now here to get his share.
"This guy."
Chu Lao Mo was eager to try.
He still remembered how the other party had escaped last time.
Who could have imagined that someone had actually merged into the coffin?
And quite a few people at that.
Regardless, the Central Domain was not a land of fairness.
There were always those dissatisfied with the Four Great Powers. Now that someone had stepped forward, they naturally followed.
Of course, more people chose to observe.
These people included outsiders and citizens of the Kuang Realm.
Figures flew through the heavens and earth, gathering together.
"City Lord."
In Anping Manor, no one left.
Everyone gathered around the City Lord.
Now, they were full of confidence in their City Lord.
Their City Lord was capable of fighting against 'Xi'.
The four strongest individuals in the Central Domain, Zang Shan, Chen Fan... along with the forces attracted by some outsiders.
In an instant, there were nearly ten places where people gathered.
"Rumble."
Great Annihilation continued.
At this time, no one made a move; everyone was waiting.
Waiting for what?
Waiting for the appearance of the World Origin.
"Hum."
Finally, the first wisp of destruction origin appeared.
Killing intent instantly intensified and then erupted completely.
