After four hundred years, the power of the Swordsmith once again descended upon this dead silent city.
The Emperor's Hand controlled everything, ignoring the rampant shadow of the Tower, even cooperating with all that he desired to accomplish.
Fei Gong's correction reconstructed everything, the spreading flames of the burning fortress flowed through the countless spiritual circuits like spider silk, rejoicing and soaring endlessly.
The invisible net had already been woven.
In the song that seemed to come from Hell.
"What is this?!"
Wuyou's pupils contracted, the shadow underfoot surged like mud, Puppets and corpses crawled out from within. One after another, souls dissolved within it appeared in wailing, constantly questioning.
In the end, the once-called craftsman's fragmented skull lit up its eyes, staring blankly at the vague symbol on its shell.
Thus, former fears and nightmares seemed to be awakened.
"Jian... Jian..."
The puppet shuddered, screaming mournfully: "Jian Yuan!!!!"
Pop!
At that instant, a crisp sound was heard.
"Almost time, it should begin."
Amidst the thick smoke and ruins, atop the incomplete tower, Ji Jue lowered his eyes, gazing at everything before him, finally, he raised his hands, guiding the myriad spiritual circuits.
Converge!
Instantly, what burst forth from the convergence of hands was a bell chime that resounded through heaven and earth.
High-pitched and sharp.
The vast Crack Realm suddenly shook, the collapsed Tower of Audience was restored under the pull of the Heavenly Essence Law, atop the five towers outside the temple, ten thousand beams of blazing light shot forth.
It was as if a hand slowly opened five fingers, once again bringing everything under control.
A piercing humming rose from beneath the nine lands, one by one massive devices began operating again, those broken devices restored to their original form under the catalyst of Mechanical Descent.
Once again, activate!
The earth trembled, the spiritual essence dormant beneath the temple surged again with the commands, flowing and operating rampantly. The sound of surging waves echoed in everyone's ears.
Then, one after another, dark beams of light shot up from the ground, surrounding the city where the temple was located like a cage, connecting heaven and earth.
Just above the sky and earth, bizarre emblems and scenes abruptly unfolded, ascending!
Within the upheaval of the collapsing heavens and earth, endless darkness opened from above, like an abyss with no end, in the blood-red flow, broken bones stacked like mountains, the frozen world left only pale frost, billions of creatures fused into writhing flesh...
They surrounded the shadow of the Tower, as if, they were born that way.
The beautiful scene imagined by the former Eternal Empire when creating the Heavenly Origin Tower appeared before the eyes of all the remnants yearning for national restoration...
With Tian Yuan governing Superior, eternal control over everything.
Unfortunately, what appeared at this moment was not Tian Yuan, but the cruel shadow cast by an incomplete tower, and what stood under the fractured tower was not Superior, but a matching Great Evil!
"This is right..."
Ji Jue, covered in the Shadow of the Soul, bathed in flames, looked down at the scene before him, unable to suppress his laughter: "Isn't this exactly the scenery you hoped for?
Make the Empire great again!"
Amidst the vast bell chime, the foundation was once again constructed.
The Great Evil was in place!
Then, the next step is... anchor the Vortex!
Boom!!!
The Crack Realm shook once more.
No, to be precise...the real world shuddered, within the distant ringing under the Vortex!
That was the resonance of the Great Evil and the Vortex.
Outside the Crack Realm, the deep, dark ocean suddenly boiled, a stream of light reached from within the Crack Realm, ascending to the sky.
All the aura of this place was no longer concealed, the power bound within the Crack Realm suddenly spread. With the roaring of the temple, it unleashed a storm that spread worldwide!
Federation, Empire, Thousand Islands, Central Earth...
At the moment this signal appeared, an entity known as [Lock] was once again triggered, issuing an alert.
Not just the detection by Lock, at this moment, anyone with perception and eyes, how could they not notice the abrupt changes appearing in the real world?
Countless people awoke from dreams and stupor, shocked and turning back amidst work and busyness, ear-piercing alarms spread from various institutions.
What's going on? What's happening?
What the hell is this?!
Upon detecting the stream of light rising from within the Crack Realm, once again, they couldn't help but feel hair-raising!
The balance between the Vortex and the real world was disturbed, breached, a new fissure was slowly unfolding... threatening to drag a Crack Realm into the abyss beneath the Vortex!
Wait, wait, damn it, wait!
This signal, this fluctuation, this aura... why does it seem so familiar?!
At this moment in time, just like that moment back then.
I'm still myself, but why the hell are you still the same you?!
Whether in the Federation's Security Bureau or the Empire's Secret Bureau, and even institutions of many Chosen Ones, now all Observers started sweating.
Kneading stiff faces, eyes wide open, confirming repeatedly—more than half a year ago, such a signal clearly appeared once more!
In the Federation, in Hai Province, to be precise...
In Spring City!
After comparing the past data and finding a 100% match, everyone was not okay.
This isn't right, this isn't right!
This is simply impossible!
But now, whether not right or impossible, looking at everything happening now, there were no words left to say...
