In the Ten Directions Island Domain, the surging Red Mist instantly beca countless tis denser.
And the sky truly cracked open, collapsing, as a crimson pillar of enormous size poured down from the very top of the Azure Sky, smashing the earth to bits and burying itself deeply within.
If there were experts skilled in long-range observation, they would discover at this mont that, centered around the crimson pillar, the land was gradually sinking into decay. Trees withered, dark red patterns spread, and corrupt vegetation flourished... It was a scene reminiscent of the Red Mist Land.
Of course, the vast majority of professionals couldn't glimpse such distant sights, but just the sudden collapse of the sky and the gigantic crimson pillar piercing the heavens and the earth were enough to strike fear into their hearts.
"This, what is this...?!"
"What in the world?!"
"The association released a notice saying that the army from Dragon Sleep Valley is about to arrive, but... the army shouldn't look like this!"
The Dragon Sleep Valley army was terrifying just to talk about, but in fact, at this mont in the professional teams venturing deep into the wilderness, at least a small number of top warriors had served in Battle Zones. Among them, so had even partaken in the wars against the Dragon Sleep Valley army.
Even though they also rely followed the lead of the top warriors, engaging in an exchange of blows with the Dragon Sleep Valley army, but... this was still them following the top warriors, victorious in countless battles.
Indeed, right now, they were also following the lead of the Lord of Tianyuan City, contending against the army from Dragon Sleep Valley.
The sa thing.
So the professionals were not cowed.
They weren't scared just before, but now...
"Can soone tell , is the Dragon Sleep Valley army supposed to look like this?!"
...
"I would also like to know."
Lord Shepherd gazed off into the distance.
His vision swept across the vast lands outside the boundaries of Tianyuan City, where he saw a torrent of crimson rain descending from the distant earth and sky.
As the raindrops fell, countless robust trees withered away, so disintegrating into mottled fragnts in the wind, while others twisted and turned nacingly claw-like.
They had already transford into corrupt creatures!
At the center of this region, an even darker red sprout burst from the earth, rapidly growing, with dark red patterns quickly spreading outwards from this center.
The sky turned somber, the Red Mist heavy as if clouds and rain, blanketing the region from above.
This was the Root of Corruption!
Similar Roots of Corruption were sprouting rapidly, one after another throughout the Ten Directions Island Domain.
"This is a bit beyond expectation."
Among the 192 scenarios he had predicted, not one included this.
Lord Shepherd could only reflect and learn from this.
His understanding of the thods of a top overlord was still far too limited.
Actually, not just him, but Tai Xuan was the sa.
The Tai Xuan Alliance was established only towards the end of the last great catastrophe and slowly rose. Tai Xuan Strongn were not the main force in the last great catastrophe, so naturally, it was difficult for them to understand the enemy's tactics.
Moreover, the thods of the top overlords were constantly enriching.
The Sky Rift Catastrophe was also a disaster that appeared in the Eternal World for the first ti.
Also, at this ti,
"Boom—!"
In the central town, within the World Tunnel that connected the various Great Domains, a sudden roaring sounded.
These spatial channels, which had never encountered a single incident since their establishnt, began to shake, as if fragnts were falling from the ceiling.
This was in the midst of infinite void; if the tunnel collapsed, they would fall into the spatial turbulence.
Even beings of the Legendary Realm would perish in the blink of an eye, leaving no bones behind.
"What happened?"
"What's wrong with the space tunnel?!"
The professionals traversing inside the tunnel were trembling with alarm.
The next mont, alarms sounded in the tunnel, accompanied by repeatedly played announcents.
"Notice, due to enemy interference with the island domain's space, the World Tunnel will close in 5 minutes, please orderly evacuate all travelers within the tunnel."
"Repeating, please orderly evacuate all travelers within the tunnel."
"But there is no need for excessive panic, the World Tunnel is still able to stabilize the space, and the Tunnel Alliance will ensure the safety of every passenger."
Even so, the passengers were still terrified, gasping for breath as they ran out of the World Tunnel in a panic.
5 minutes later,
"Buzz—"
The ripple that had ford the World Tunnel's gate gradually destabilized until it completely closed and disappeared with a 'pop'.
...
Tianyuan City, atop a mountain.
Mu Yuan stood here, gazing into the distance, as the voice of the "World Vine·Little World" reached his ears.
"Actually, it could still be barely maintained."
The Little World thus stated.
Mu Yuan, "No matter, simply close the tunnel, and conserve the power for when it is needed."
The Little World did not understand but followed his command.
Lord Shepherd's reason for directly closing the World Tunnel was simple—when the tunnel was unstable, people would rarely risk traversing it.
Moreover, he actually desired, for a while, to keep more transient outsiders within the Tianyuan City region.
Until the end of the great battle.
This was his own wish.
Of course, if Tianyuan City truly could not defend, he would strive with all his might to maintain the World Tunnel, forging a route for evacuation.
Furthermore,
「Beep~ You have a new ssage~!」
Mu Yuan opened the Sky Patrol Realm, and a cold voice ca through.
"Hey, can you hear ?"
"I can hear you."
"OK, it seems that communications haven't been completely disrupted. I heard the space of the Ten Directions Island Domain has been sealed, and the World Tunnel has also closed... Can this tunnel still connect two domains? Don't worry about the problem of safety."
Speaking was the Lord of Han Yue City, she said, "If the tunnel can still be used, then I'll co and slash a few High Dukes severely. Just so happens no battles are happening here, so I'm quite bored!"
