Chapter 4031
He swept through the scarred universe.
He wanted to see if there were still any signs of living beings.
Could it be that everything had perished?
Jun Xiaoyao knew this was impossible.
Because during that Great Calamity of the Vastness, the Vastness side had ultimately survived.
It was just that one could see from the scene before him.
Even if the Vastness continued, the price paid was extremely high.
Countless cosmic territories were destroyed and fallen, and the number of dead living beings was counted in the trillions.
Jun Xiaoyao's figure moved.
As far as his eyes could see, there were only broken and cracked continents, and fragments of ancient life stars split into pieces.
Under such circumstances, even those powerful cultivators found it difficult to survive.
Let alone those with lower cultivation realms, beings similar to mortals.
Jun Xiaoyao was silent upon seeing all this.
If he had not truly seen the Great Calamity of the Vastness with his own eyes.
It would be very hard to imagine what kind of destruction it would cause.
This was many times more terrifying than the previous invasions of the Foreign Realm in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, the Dark Turmoil, and other such disasters.
This was a world-destroying catastrophe that swept across the entire Vastness.
And such a catastrophe would descend once again in the reality of the future.
For now, letting Jun Xiaoyao experience it in advance was not a bad thing.
Under such circumstances, Jun Xiaoyao continued to travel through it.
Everywhere was ruins, and various places had fallen; it was difficult to detect traces of living beings.
Jun Xiaoyao employed the Kun Peng Art, traveling through the void at an extremely fast speed.
His vast spiritual sense turned into layers of waves, rolling and spreading outward.
At a certain moment, Jun Xiaoyao's gaze suddenly looked in a certain direction.
His figure disappeared from where he stood.
Within a certain realm.
This realm was incomparably vast, with many ancient life stars within it.
It looked somewhat primitive, with ancient trees reaching the sky, lush and green.
There were some tribes and living beings of various groups here.
Although this great calamity had a very wide range of influence.
But the entire Vastness was, after all, too vast.
Myriad realms stood tall.
No matter how the Dark Realm invaded, it was impossible to precisely destroy every cosmic realm.
There were still some realms that survived in the cracks.
Within them still lived trillions upon trillions of living beings.
However, this kind of luck was not common.
At a certain moment, in the void of this realm.
Black fog suddenly permeated, spreading to the four wilds, and began to shroud one star field after another.
"That is..."
The trillions of living beings living in this realm all felt panic and unease.
Among them, many mortals might never have left the ancient life star where they lived in their entire lives.
Let alone leaving this realm.
They also did not know what the Great Calamity of the Vastness or the Dark Realm was.
They only had an instinctive unease and fear.
As if the end of the world were about to arrive.
However, in this realm, some cultivators and powerful ones knew the situation.
Upon noticing the black fog that was spreading and permeating, their complexions all changed suddenly, turning deathly pale.
"Not good... that is Undying Matter!"
"Sure enough, was it still discovered by the Dark Realm?"
The many powerful forces of this realm concentrated all their strength.
Together, they set up a vast and boundless great array, hiding the entire realm.
They wanted to use this to avoid this calamity.
However, now, it was still useless.
That large expanse of Undying Matter black fog was permeating, beginning to submerge one star field after another.
There were powerful ones from many forces who took action to intercept.
Various divine abilities and great array methods were unleashed.
However, they were all like a mantis trying to stop a chariot; they could only delay, not intercept.
And just at this moment, above this realm's universe.
Within the large expanse of black fog, a group of Dark Realm beings emerged.
Their figures were all shrouded in hazy Undying Matter.
"I didn't expect there to be fish that slipped through the net."
"The scope of this realm is also extremely vast, with trillions of living beings within it."
"It just so happens that we can collect the souls of these Vastness living beings to help the King refine magic weapons."
The Dark Realm beings within the black fog were communicating.
Not long after.
Above the firmament of this realm.
Wind and clouds suddenly surged, and the universe was shaking.
Endless Undying Matter rolled and surged.
Within it, an ancient artifact unexpectedly emerged.
It was a pitch-black ancient lamp.
The ancient lamp was ink-black all over, carrying an ancient and vicissitudinous intent.
The lamp body was carved with ancient curse patterns, and every curse pattern seemed to be a living thing wriggling, looking exceptionally eerie.
On the lamp base, scenes resembling the eighteen layers of hell were carved, even more chilling.
Within the ancient lamp, there was a ghostly blue flame, flickering like a ghost's pupil.
Within it, it seemed as if ten thousand spirits were wailing.
Such an ancient lamp emerged above the firmament of this realm.
Making the many powerful ones of this realm all feel a strong sense of unease.
Afterwards!
Hum hum!
Within this pitch-black ancient lamp, the ghostly blue flame began to sway.
Waves of secret power spread outward.
In an instant.
This ripple swept across many star fields.
In those star fields, the living beings on many ancient life stars, including some mortals.
All simultaneously emitted wailing sounds of extreme pain.
Then their physical bodies began to crack and explode!
Wisps of weak souls rose like sparks, ascending toward the high sky, converging toward that pitch-black ancient lamp.
All things have spirits, and naturally, they also have souls.
It was just that they had never embarked on the path of cultivation, so they had not cultivated a powerful Primordial Spirit.
But under such circumstances, there was no longer a distinction between strong and weak.
Even some cultivators, when swept by this ripple, also felt their five senses confused and their six consciousnesses sealed.
And then their physical bodies began to collapse and crack inch by inch, and their Primordial Spirits were drawn out.
If it were only one or two people, three or four, or even hundreds or thousands, perhaps the scene would not be so shocking.
But right now, many star fields, many ancient life stars, and endless living beings were all perishing.
Countless dense souls seemed to have converged into a vast soul galaxy.
All were drawn away by that pitch-black soul lamp.
And what made the many powerful ones of this realm gasp even more was.
After those countless souls were absorbed by that pitch-black ancient lamp.
It actually made that ghostly blue flame become a bit brighter.
That is to say, the souls of these countless Vastness living beings had all turned into the lamp oil for that pitch-black ancient lamp!
Using the souls of trillions of living beings as lamp oil to light the world-destroying underworld lamp.
This was not even the action of a true Dark Realm supreme powerhouse, but merely one of their magic weapons.
The entire realm ushered in a destructive blow, with living beings suffering in misery.
"Hurry and take action to stop it, otherwise we will all die!"
In this realm, there were powerful ones emitting roaring sounds.
There were Emperor Realm powerful ones who appeared, emitting a monstrous aura, and unleashed various methods to suppress that pitch-black ancient lamp.
However, those Dark Realm beings took action to intercept.
There were Dark Realm alien powerful ones who emitted a cruel and sadistic sneer.
"Being able to sacrifice and refine magic weapons for the King is the honor of you ants; how dare you still resist?"
These Dark Realm beings took action, and various laws of the Dark Realm were unleashed.
This place was suddenly filled with blood.
How could the cultivators of this realm resist the slaughter of the Dark Realm aliens?
"Damn it!"
Many powerful cultivators had their eyes split with rage, all feeling a sense of despair.
Could it be that the trillions upon trillions of living beings in their realm were going to perish because of this?
Just at this moment.
In the distance, a brilliant sword light seemed to span across trillions of cosmic star rivers, sweeping over in a mighty and grand manner!
Many Dark Realm aliens were instantly reduced to ashes under this sword!
