What replaced it was a suddenly expanding vortex-shaped dark cloud, with a speed that took no more than a few seconds, and in an instant it covered the whole sky of the dream's Cuckoo Terrace.

"What… is that?" she inevitably froze.

Booming and howling sounds assailed the ears without cease.

Thick bolts of lightning, like snakes and dragons, wound through the heavy black clouds, serving as the sole light between heaven and earth, and also illuminating the successive storms that appeared, connecting heaven and earth.

Yes, it's "those".

One, two, three, four… In that instant of brightness, there were nearly a dozen tornadoes covering almost the entire city, like gray pillars linking heaven and earth, turning the whole Dujuan Terrace into a storm's cloud courtyard.

Or more accurately, Dujuan Terrace no longer exists.

Here only ruins remain, along with a few "Merit Steles" left by the overly conscientious project.

In the center of this ruin's cloud courtyard stands a colossal beast dotted with iridescent, deep blue, and Hei'an.

Its upright humanoid body, a ferocious yet majestic dragon head, scales like armor covering its whole body, and the jade-like azure crystal on its chest extending into countless mysterious patterns with metallic sheen,

Its ancient, solemn dignity harmonized with the mystery of its mechanical framework, and in the next flash of lightning it opened its angry red pupils.

At that instant, a piercing whistle sounded, like the booming voice of an ancient priest, followed closely by a storm winding in with the thunder.

As if a myth had returned, as if heaven and earth had descended calamity.

Even as It merely stood there, the entire city simultaneously faced hurricanes, downpours, lightning, and even the collapse from earthquakes.

Even the city's groundwater was rising; otherwise, the downpour alone could not have submerged half of the surface vehicles.

And she had never heard of such a thing!

"Nijikalis."

"What?"

Hei Qian abruptly turned her head, staring at Xin Tiao Qian's complex gaze, unable to make out the other's sudden utterance.

The other didn't mind repeating that explanation.

"Heaven's Authority Judgment. Nijikalis."

"When It appears, even if that world is your masterpiece, it will become only Its heaven and earth."

"Because It is precisely heaven and earth."
