?The destruction was slow, as it seemed it was not a result of Rowan’s action but the Realm shuddering in anticipation of a great change about to transpire.

A scream like a child in pain erupted from all around the Realm that could only be heard by creatures above a certain power level, and fear spread throughout the Mountain and Sea Realm, but the people here were hardy folk, Cultivators they were called, and they held back their fears by lifting high their weapons.

They believed in fighting against the heavens, a tenet passed from the first and only Supreme Ruler of this Realm, long after he had fallen. Sacred Lands opened their long sealed gates and countless Sects began to arm themselves, they did not know where the danger came from, but they all saw the skies turning dark and the suns vanishing in the sky.

“Stop him!”

The powerful figure with ten thousand swords cried out as a green web of lightning surrounded his weapons and an elaborate formation was created that began to drag the Essence from the entire Mountain and Sea Ruin to him, transforming all his swords into ten thousand extremely lifelike dragons with claws of lightning whose roars shook the heavens.

“Wait, stop your actions Ni Tian,” The female figure’s third eyes opened, “The path of Fate does not necessarily skew towards doom, but to an opportunity.”

The figure that resembled a Budha regarded the woman as a large golden palm held back the dragons released by Ni Tian, “Are you sure about this Sparrow, our only opportunity to strike is dwindling away”

She looked flustered for a brief moment before she nodded her head, “We should be aiding this entity, not stand against him, the more of our people who survive this change, the greater the benefits would hold for the future. This I see.”

Ni Tian surrounded by his dragons shook his head in disagreement, “No, it can not be risked, I say we stop them first, and then assess their actions to see if we can risk it.”

Sparrow sighed, “I cannot interpret the full readings of Fate, but all it points towards is true freedom Ni Tian, not the barest minimum we have been scraping with for millions of years, whether this change comes by destruction or transformation, all it points towards, is freedom!”

The three figures seemed to communicate more intensely between themselves for a few moments more before they all unexpectedly turned around and escaped into the horizon, each of them opened special treasures and began collecting every living being into them, whether it was animals, plants, or people.

The Great Sages quickly sent messages to all the powers inside the Mountain and Sea Realm to gather all their disciples and all the surrounding living creatures into their various Sects Treasure Lands and congregate at the Great Mountains.

The lady with three eyes abruptly turned to her side where the figure of Eva appeared, the Lady of Shadows opened both her palms as a sign of her non-aggression, before turning to spread out a dense wave of purple light that scraped away every living thing for a hundred miles and deposited them into her sleeves.

They nodded at each other and continued their actions, beside them the figures of tens of thousands of Angels began to spread throughout the Mountain and Sea Realm, collecting all the living beings they saw.

Except for the two Sovereigns who never left Rowan’s side, the rest scattered to all the four corners of the Realm and began clearing them out. It seemed their action had a positive effect on the Realm for the shuddering and loud cracks emanating from its core began to die down.

“Hey, Big Guy, what are you doing?” Lost appeared on top of the shoulders of the fat figure who turned to the little boy on his shoulders in surprise for he barely sensed his movement, he wanted to chastise the child for daring to step his feet on the Sacred body of a Great Sage but then the memory of the White Flames entered his heart and the horror he experienced when part of the Essence he had cultivated for fifty million years suddenly had one percent of it vanishing in less than a minute. 𝑖𝘦𝑎.𝗇t

Great Sages were used to battling for centuries and millennia, and for one percent of his Essence to vanish in a minute was intensely horrifying, before the last tethers between his Essence were lost to him, he had felt them being siphoned into this boy, and after he landed on his shoulders he could still distinctly sense the last embers of his Essence before it vanished forever, most likely it had been fully consumed by this little monster.

“I ask what are you doing, Big Guy?” Lost said again, “Everyone else is gathering all the living things inside this realm and you are collecting rocks and rivers. Also, why are you so fat? You are a being of profound energy and vitality, you don’t need all this lovely fluff… although you are very soft. Can I cuddle with you?”

Snorting in annoyance, the fat figure who did not stop his actions of gathering all the mountains and rivers in the Realm replied to the child, “First, my name is not Big Guy it is Han Li, and these are not just mere stones and waters but elemental life unique to our Realm… you cannot cuddle with me, except you pay a fee of course… of you wish you can become my disciple…”

“Okay Big Guy, my name is Lost and I’m two years old!” the boy interrupted him as he began to lose interest after Han Li introduced himself, except with Rowan, Lost had a very flighty character.

A passing Archangel that turned out to be Dora called out, “It’s one year and eight months.”

Lost looked away in disdain, “Humph… who is counting the small numbers, am I right Big Guy?”

“I told you, it is not Big… you know what forget what I just said, stop distracting me, and let me focus on my work before whomever that person is, destroys our world.” Han Li began to increase the range of his technique, dragging thousands of mountains and rivers into his Interspatial Ring.
