Alex turned around, looking to the west with a slightly confused look on his face. No one around him seemed to sense the fluctuations at all, but he did. He could sense it already.

His eyes narrowed and he zoned out everything around him, focusing only on the feeling he had right now.

Space.

As the feeling got stronger, he managed to figure out that it was indeed space that was being manipulated in the distance. And the manipulation was so vague that he could tell that it was not close at all, and strong enough that it was a manipulation on a massive scale.

He stared in disbelief wondering what was happening. The last time he had felt anything similar to this was when…

‘When Bai Jingshen left for the Immortal lands!’ Alex realized. What did that mean? Was someone leaving for the immortal lands? It was definitely not Scarlet as the feeling had come from the west, but then… was it the Black Tortoise?

Was he not supposed to leave some thousand years later when it was time for them to leave? The Snake wasn’t even there yet.

‘Is someone entering the Immortal realm then?’ Alex wondered. If so who could it be?

He wondered what was happening, and many saints around the world wondered along with him. Most didn’t even know that what was happening had to do with Space being manipulated. 

Every other Saint could only wait in fear as they tried to figure something out.

In a certain location, a girl sat somewhere unknown to her. She knew she was in a room, but wasn’t sure if the room was dark or bright. She couldn’t tell if the temperature was hot or cold. She couldn’t tell if it was a quiet location or loud, or if she smelled anything.

She couldn’t even sense any cultivation bases despite being strong herself. Her sense of Qi was completely gone.

All she could sense was touch, and that too was very vague for her, as if it were a mortal’s senses.

That had been her normal for so many years now that she wasn’t even bothered by it now. She was used to having to rely on someone else for the past few decades.

No medicines helped her, not the ones she ate all those years ago or the ones she ate yesterday. At this point, she had completely given up on the idea of ever gaining her senses back.

However, for the first time today, she could sense something. Whatever it was, it was too strong for her to ignore. However, she could only wait for someone to tell her what was going on as she herself couldn’t tell that at all.

* * * * *

Kings and Queens all stirred around the continent, each looking to their guards for answers. The strong members of the Head Legion, however, could provide no answers.

They themselves were just as befuddled as everyone else.

* * * * * *

The beasts in the Beast Paradise were scared, each trying to understand what was going on. The Lizard had some idea of what could be happening, but even that was way too vague.

A feeling alone wasn’t going to confirm what he thought was the truth.

* * * * * *

The Aquatic beasts ran in fear, the stronger ones hiding in the deep. On an island, an old man walked out, looking in the direction of the north wondering to himself what it was that he was sensing.

He could not come up with an answer and as such, he could only stare.

* * * * * *

In a bright room, sitting in front of an Alchemy cauldron, the Dragon Emperor diligently made different pills. He had not only learned the recipes that could give him perfect pills, but he also had so many of them now that he believed he could understand the mystery behind the perfect pill.

He wasn’t willing to wait for Alex to give everything to him if he could use this opportunity to learn it all himself.

He thought he understood what was going on, but needed a few more years for certain.

He was preparing to make another batch when suddenly he sensed the disturbance. He felt it deep in his blood.

‘Is that… space?’ he wondered. He could sense space, and thus he sensed the disturbance more clearly than most other saints. Not to mention, as someone who was a simple intention away from trying to break through to the Immortal realm, he had the strongest senses of all who were of this land.

And as such, he knew to fear what was happening. Something big was happening, and he did not wish to be a part of it until he knew he was safe. Until he was in the Immortal realms, he was not going to risk anything at all.

He told a few of his subordinates and had them check to see what was going on by giving them an accurate estimation of where it was happening.

Scarlet sat on the platform made out of Sunstone in the center of the Sunborn Sanctuary. The stone still retained the sun’s heat, glowing, giving back what it had absorbed.

She had been diligently cultivating for the past 3 years and had managed to break through some more times, now in the Saint Transformation 3rd realm, getting close to 4th. 

Her eyes suddenly opened, looking around for a bit before focusing her senses in a certain direction.

She could feel what was happening and could tell it was big. However, her Saint realm senses were nowhere near strong enough for her to tell accurately what was going on.

She could only tell that whatever was happening was not in her continent at least. Given the direction thought… was it the Eastern Continent?

‘I hope this has nothing to do with you, Alex,’ she thought. ‘I can only hope.’

The Black Tortoise was sleeping inside the secret realm in the Domain of the Ruler when he woke up to the commotion as well.

His long head came out from his shell, looking to the east curiously.

“What is going on?” he wondered. It was a little difficult to tell exactly what was going on for him. Being inside a secret realm where the spaces were separated, he couldn’t tell properly what was happening outside.

“Is someone breaking through to Immortality?” he wondered for a second. However, a moment later, he threw out the idea. There was nothing of what he was sensing that gave him the idea that someone was breaking through to Immortality.

Whatever it was though, he could tell was way too big for someone of this realm. “Are the other beasts moving?” he wondered. 

He could only wait and see if he could get more answers.

* * * * * * 

Bai Jingshen opened his eyes inside his room looking to the east. His senses were strong, stronger than anyone else in this world aside from a single person.

As such, he had a lot more information than the other Immortals in this world. 

“My lord,” one of his wives spoke in somewhat distress. “What is going on?”

“This… I want to say someone is ascending,” another wife of his said. “But this is wrong.”

“I can’t sense what is happening clearly,” Ren Xiao said worriedly and looked toward Bai Jingshen. “My lord, are my senses correct? Is this happening in the Eastern Continent?”

“It is,” Bai Jingshen said with a serious look. He tried to sense what was happening as well, but it was somewhat difficult to paint a full picture.

“I’ll try to see what is happening,” he said and disappeared from there. Not long after, he appeared outside the Beast realm and looked toward the East.

His first instinct was to fly to where it was and see what was happening. However, after appearing outside, he was confident that whatever was happening, was happening in the Eastern Continent.

As a result, he could not go there at all. 

He frowned a bit and wondered what it was that he could do, but there really was nothing he could do.

He could only hope that Alex and Pearl were safe from here.

His wives came out not long after as well, looking to the east. “What is happening, My Lord?” one of them asked.

Bai Jingshen grimaced at the question and finally answered. 

“Someone has descended to this realm,” he said. “And they have done so in a continent that has no protector at all.”

* * * * *

“Senior!” Xuan Luhei, the snake, crawled out of the lake, quickly assuming the body of an adult man as he made his way toward Senior Yang in somewhat distress.

“Am I sensing it correctly?” he asked. “Is someone really descending to this realm?”

Senior Yang looked troubled at the situation. His eyes darted around, trying to figure out what to do. 

The snake looked at him and was confused for a moment before realizing why he was troubled.

“Are they… here to take you?” the snake asked.

“I… I would assume so,” the man said, not knowing what to do.

“But that would be breaking the Heavenly pact that the beasts have made with the humans and demons to bring peace to the lower worlds,” the snake said.

“I fear the consequences of leaving me be here is far more than what they would have to suffer from breaking the treaty,” Senior Yang said. “They are certainly more than happy to do it as if that means finding the World Tree’s seed here.”

“They are happy to do it so they can rekindle the flames of war.”

“But how can they come here?” the snake asked. “Do they not fear this location?”

“I fear…” Senior Yang spoke with a solemn look. “I fear that they may have already figured out that the Godkiller is no longer here anymore.”
