During Ye Xiao’s intense battle against the fearsome ‘Shadow’, something extraordinary occurred in a distant, unknown part of the vast void. This event sent shockwaves through several Lands in Chaos.
Suddenly, in this remote void, an enormous crack tore open, breaking through the previously undisturbed darkness. It was like a tear in the fabric of the void itself, as if the Chaos had been wounded unexpectedly.
Woosh~
From this ominous crack emerged a dark red eye, a hideous and unsettling entity that blinked open in the depths of the void. Its appearance was surreal and nightmarish, radiating an aura of malevolence and unimaginable power.
It seems to survey the entire Chaos with an inscrutable gaze.
This emergence of the crack and the dark red eye triggered a strange and unsettling phenomenon across all the Lands. The once calm and azure skies transformed into an eerie and foreboding color, as if even the Chaos was reacting to this malevolent intrusion.
The atmosphere that was once teeming with life and tranquility, became heavy and oppressive. A sense of malevolence hung in the air, like a thick, suffocating fog that settled over the Lands. It felt as if the Lands themselves were holding their breaths, aware of the sinister force that had appeared all of a sudden.
The phenomenon extended beyond the skies and the air of Lands. The very earth responded to the dark red eye’s appearance. Several Lands that were closest to the red eye started reacting. Once vibrant and beautiful landscapes on these lands soon transformed into grotesque forms. Trees withered, and rivers ran dark and ominous. The essence of the Lands seemed tainted by this otherworldly presence.
People in all the Lands felt an unsettling unease, a sense of impending doom that gnawed at their hearts. It was a collective fear, a recognition that the dark red eye announced something unnatural and malevolent, something beyond understanding.
While Ye Xiao battled the ‘Shadow’, he remained unaware of the sinister events unfolding in the void. Because he had sealed his cultivation, he was unable to sense the appearance of the crack and the malevolent gaze of the dark red eye upon the Chaos.

╠ Sacred Forbidden Land of Azure Skyline ╣
Sacred Forbidden Land of Azure Skyline is the only Sacred Forbidden Land in the entire Chaos. This Forbidden Land is controlled by the Spiritas Race.
In the Sacred Forbidden Land of Azure Skyline, ‘Queen’ could be seen sitting in serene contemplation with her eyes closed atop a mountain that seemed to touch the sky. She was a figure of grace and power, her presence radiating an air of ethereal authority. It was a moment of tranquil solitude in the midst of the Sacred Land.
However, the tranquility of this sacred place was shattered when an unprecedented event unfolded. In the vast void beyond, a colossal crack tore into existence.
The moment the crack appeared, ‘Queen’ sensed it. Her eyes snapped open with a suddenness that mirrored the startling occurrence in the void. She raised her head and looked at the sky.
As she looked at the sky that was welcoming an unwelcomed phenomenon, her eyes underwent a profound transformation. They transitioned from their usual hue to a mesmerizing shade of green, with continuous ripples shimmering within.
Her profound gaze pierced through every obstacle and directly looked at the giant red eye that appeared in the crack of the void.
“Azure Serpent Monarch!” Queen whispered, her voice carrying a weight of recognition and concern. At the same time, a tinge of absolute coldness flashed in her eyes that seemed to hide the strength to freeze the entire Sacred Land.
Without hesitation, she vanished from the mountain, reappearing in front of the colossal red eye that gazed from beyond the fractured void.
Even Ye Xiao, with his teleportation ability, could not traverse the distance Queen just covered in an instant.
Queen was like an ant in front of this giant red eye.
However, her sudden appearance also attracted the giant red eye’s attention.
As the giant red eye looked at ‘Queen,’ a curious expression crossed its unsettling visage. It seemed to be taken aback by her sudden appearance. Then, as if it recognized Queen, a hoarse voice resonated through the vast Chaos, “Eternal Queen, Zhiwu Nuwang.”
If Ye Xiao had been here, he would have definitely been shocked.
It is because this Queen is definitely not the Queen he knows, however, their names were exactly the same.
This voice that called Queen’s name traveled through the entire chaos, however, strangely, no one heard this voice. It was as if the owner of that red eye never spoke anything.
However, Queen clearly heard those words.
The red eye’s surprise quickly gave way to cold laughter. It mocked, “Hahaha! I didn’t expect you to be hiding here. Is ‘he’ also lurking in this place, attempting to recover his injuries and strength?”
Queen frowned but quickly relaxed. She then responded to the owner of the red eye’s mockery with a disdainful snort.
Bang~
An overwhelming aura burst forth from her being, a terrifying force that rippled through the Chaos itself.
Crack~
Rumble~
Space fractured, and disaster struck countless Lands as a result of this unleashed power that Queen erupted with. Yet, Queen had little concern for the havoc her aura wreaked; her focus was solely on the red eye.
At this moment, she did not have the time to care about the disaster her aura brought to the Chaos.
With unyielding determination, she fixed her gaze upon the malevolent eye and issued a stern warning, “If you wish to keep that one eye you have left, I suggest you depart immediately!”
The entity known as the Azure Serpent Monarch, who was also the owner of that red eye, recalled something. His already red eyes immediately become redder due to the anger that flashed in his heart.
That incident was a mark that could not be erased from his heart. He clearly remembered how a giant spear and a blade blinded his two eyes, causing his strength to decrease by more than half. He had still not been able to recover his strength.
Fortunately, he had three eyes. Otherwise, he would have truly become blind.
This hatred, he will definitely quench his thirst for revenge by killing that person and only then his hatred will end. 𝘦𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.
Azure Serpent Monarch snorted coldly, and his voice echoed once more throughout the vast Chaos. However, just like before, only Queen heard his voice.
He taunted, “Do you believe that you ‘TWO’ can remain hidden here forever?”
“We have already breached the eighth barrier. Only the final barrier, the ninth barrier, remains. Once we shatter that last obstacle, hahaha… You know full well what will transpire at that time. No one can save him, not even you, the Eternal Queen!”
With those chilling words, the red eye gradually closed, and as it did, all the peculiar phenomena and unsettling changes that had gripped the Chaos came to an abrupt halt. Chaos seemed to hold its breath once more, returning to an uneasy stillness.
It was also at this time, the crack in the void started healing itself. In next to no time, the crack completely disappeared.
For Queen, this encounter marked a moment of profound tension and apprehension. Sensing the presence of the Azure Serpent Monarch had stirred complex emotions within her. She was both relieved and concerned about this looming threat.
She also noted down his words.
Eight barriers have been broken, and only the final barrier remains!
As she recalled this, her aura once again burst forth subconsciously.
The phenomenon resulting from Queen’s eruption of power was cataclysmic in its scope. As her aura surged, it triggered a chain reaction that rippled through the entire Chaos. Space itself quivered, and the fabric of reality strained under the weight of her immense power. Disaster struck the Lands below.
Queen, however, soon controlled her strength. She also retracted her aura and waved her hand.
All the Lands that lost their essence and were on the verge of destruction because of her and the Azure Serpent Monarch started recovering at a very fast speed.
Very soon, the Land recovered completely. It was as if they were never struck by any kind of disaster.
However, although the Land recovered, the lost lives did not.
Queen closed her eyes and sighed deeply. The next moment she opened her eyes, her ethereal green eyes had already locked on Ye Xiao’s figure who was still battling the Shadow, exchanging wounds for wounds.
“Lotus, we don’t have much time left. Tell him to deal with small matters quickly and obtain all the Rule Source Crystals as soon as possible.”
Her voice was very low, however, the Lotus of Chaos inside Ye XIao’s universe quivered in response. It was clear that it heard Queen’s words clearly.
Queen, on the other hand, disappeared once again, reappearing at the same spot on top of the mountain in the Sacred Forbidden Land of Azure Skyline.
At the same time, people living on every Land started talking about phenomena that just occurred.
Six out of seven Overlord Forces sent their people to investigate what had just transpired.
As for the Spiritas Race, the head of this race stepped into the Sacred Forbidden Land with many questions in his mind.
