The crowd did not dare to make any sudden movements as they gazed down from the sky above. The endless rumbling sounds were as though an earthquake was occurring. The entire Ziwei Realm was quaking.

“Return immediately and protect the tribesmen,” the chief of the Dou tribe ordered the cultivators behind him.

“Understood,” acknowledged the cultivators as they left and returned to the Dou tribe.

The Clan Leader of Clan of the Seven Slayers also naturally realized this. He immediately gave the same order. They all sensed that something big was about to happen to the Ziwei Realm. The catastrophe this time would be even direr than what happened to the Shadow Realm last time.

In the endless space in the sky above, beams of divine light shone down onto the ground. The divine light resonated with things underground, causing the light to glow even brighter and radiate out into the vast space.

The cracks in the ground kept propagating outwards, followed by intense rumbling. The crowd vaguely sensed that the underground palace was about to break out through the ground. It seemed that it would destroy the entire Ziwei Realm as it emerged from below.

“A celestial force,” said Ye Futian as he looked up at the divine halos that were raining down.

“Hmmm, it is indeed a celestial force of heaven and earth,” commented the chief of the Dou tribe beside Ye Futian as he nodded his head. “Also, this is no ordinary power. It carries an air of nobility, as though it possesses a supreme aura.”

“That means that these powers correspond to the different powers of the Ziwei Realm. It seems that everything is secretly connected,” said Emperor Nan in a low voice.

At that moment, the hearts of the cultivators of the Ziwei Realm were trembling frenziedly. They were in a state of panic when they discovered that their entire world was changing.

The ground collapsed and shattered as cracks propagated outwards. There were even large chunks of land that were completely split off from the Ziwei Realm and floated in the sky.

What was happening? Many people did not even know what was going on. Panic was spreading frantically.

The Ziwei Realm was one of the Nine Supreme Imperial Realms. There were countless living beings and cultivators living in it. This panic seemed to coalesce into a mass of frightening emotion. Even across the vast distances, the top figures in the direction of the School of the Emperor Star could faintly sense it.

The figures of Emperor Nan, the chief of the Dou tribe, and other cultivators leaped into the sky. Their terrifying wills swept out and enveloped the vast space as they said, “The Ziwei Realm is about to collapse. All cultivators, take to the skies.”

“How are we going to deal with this?” asked the chief of the Dou tribe.

“The Ziwei Realm is full of cultivators. They should know what to do when they see the changes to the surface of the Realm. However, the small number of ordinary folk who have no cultivation will meet their end,” lamented Emperor Nan. As he gazed at the Palace Lord of School of the Emperor Star, there was a cold look in his eyes.

Right then, the Sound of Buddha filled the skies. An ancient buddha from the Mountain Realm descended with his hands together and a stern expression on his face. Sensing the situation in the Ziwei Realm, he said, “The Palace Lord of School of the Emperor Star will bear the consequences for acting in such a manner.”

The Palace Lord of School of the Emperor Star looked up at the buddha. It was Master Pudu. He replied, “I believe in fate, not cause and effect.”

Right now, he wanted to change his fate.

The major change in the world was an opportunity. There had always been an ancient legend in the School of the Emperor Star. He wanted to open this forbidden door to see whether the ancient legend was true.

Master Pudu chanted the Sound of Buddha. The Light of Buddha circled him, bearing an air of compassion.

The cultivators of the Dark World destroyed the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path. As a local force of the Original Realm, the School of the Emperor Star was also attempting to open this forbidden door. It would inevitably backfire on them.

Terrifying divine light burst forth from below. The crowd saw the cracks grow bigger and bigger. Gradually, the entire continent was splitting apart.

Rumble. Loud, intense rumbling could be heard. The people in the sky above still stood there watching. Underneath the dazzling light of the stars, huge boulders were flying towards them. However, the boulders were immediately destroyed and turned to dust before they could reach the cultivators.

The entire Ziwei Realm was falling to pieces. Countless cultivators from the Ziwei Realm were weeping.

Ye Futian stared down below. Huge boulders the size of mountains were crashing towards him. However, when they approached him, they were destroyed and shattered to pieces by the power of the Great Path. He gazed down below and secretly sighed. The disturbance this time was even more frightening than back then in the Shadow Realm.

Among the Nine Supreme Realms, the Ziwei Realm was most likely about to follow the footsteps of the Hidden Land Realm. It would end up being destroyed.

This frightening phenomenon persisted for a long while. The crowd still stood high in the sky above. However, it was as though they were standing in a vast empty space. They were no longer above a world. Around them, countless boulders were floating about. In the distance, it was as though large chunks of the continent had broken apart and were moving in different directions.

Beneath them, beams of blinding light shot up at the crowd. Starlight also rained down from the endless space. The lights intertwined.

Was the underground palace so big?

The crowd felt their hearts leap. Even the giant level figures felt their hearts tremble.

It was too big. It seemed endless, as though the underground palace that caused the Ziwei Realm to be torn apart covered the vast space.

Was this actually an underground palace?

It might be that, previously, the crowd had only seen the tip of the iceberg.

“Was there such a large underground palace?” the chief of the Dou tribe asked. “What do all of you think this looks like?”

The various cultivators in the sky were looking at the huge object that had appeared. An extremely frightening starlight was radiating from within it.

“A stone,” said Ye Futian.

“A stone?” the chief of the Dou tribe asked as he revealed a strange look. Was this a stone even larger than a city?

“If it was a different shape, doesn’t it look like a star?” asked Ye Futian.

The people around him revealed strange looks. This power and the starlight flowing around it did indeed make it resemble a star.

“Is it a meteorite left behind by a falling star?” suggested the chief of the Dou tribe.

“It might be a stone of the Heavenly Path from ancient times,” said Ye Futian. This caused the people surrounding him to reveal thoughtful expressions.

“Of course, this is all just simple speculation,” said Ye Futian in a low voice. “Such pure power of the Great Path birthed the Ziwei Realm after many years. It made the Ziwei Realm and now will also destroy it.”

“It might be as you say,” said the Dynastic Overlord of the ancient royal family of Duan. He felt that what Ye Futian said seemed very close to the truth.

“However, if it is a stone, why are they trying to open it?” asked Duan Tianxiong. Ye Futian revealed a pensive look when he heard him say this. He looked over at the Palace Lord of the School of the Emperor Star. The other party walked down towards the ground.

“It might be that this stone contains secrets?” Ye Futian guessed.

As they were speaking, an astonishing lightning storm appeared in the sky above. Terrifying divine lightning descended from the sky and directly struck the gigantic stone. However, the gigantic stone floating in the air did not budge. The attacks of the top figures could not move it at all.

If this was truly a stone, the stone itself was a very precious divine item.
