“The most important task now… is to summon the Sea of Time Principle. If I can’t even summon it down, how could I even speak of fusion…” murmured Yu Zi Yu, as he came to understand the present challenge.

*Hoooo…* Taking a long breath, calming his heart and mind, Yu Zi Yu decided to stake everything.

*Booooom…* A resounding roar echoed, shaking the very Heaven and Earth.

At the same time, an unfathomable and mystical aura began to rise around Yu Zi Yu.

It was Enlightenment, a state where one become one with the world. In this state, one could rapidly comprehend the Great Dao.

Thanks to his Evolution Points, it was not difficult for Yu Zi Yu to enter such a state…

In fact, he could go deeper! Falling into a prolonged state of Dao Comprehension.

…

Time passed silently, and in the blink of an eye, several years had gone by.

A few years…it was a very short span for cultivators.

To the strong, it was no more than a short closed-door cultivation session. And for ancient beings, perhaps just a nap.

However, for Yu Zi Yu… these years marked a complete transformation.

And on this very day…

*Booooom… Booooom…* As the thundering roars grew increasingly terrifying, a vast sea emerged from the void itself…

And not far from this vast, majestic sea, yet another had quietly appeared.

Though they both resembled seas at first glance, a closer look revealed that both were utterly profound and mysterious.

One sea rippled gently, with layers of overlapping dimensional spaces surging within it. Also, the Space seemed to have taken on solid form, manifested as countless diamond-shaped crystals shimmering throughout it.

This was Space as perceived by Yu Zi Yu.

He used diamond-shaped crystals as the medium to embody Space.

So naturally, the Sea of Space Principle he perceived was made up of endless crystal facets.

The other sea was no different than the other.

Countless illusory clocks floated within it, and scene after scene flowed like memories through its depths.

Rather than a Sea of Time Principle, it was more like a fragment of the River of Time itself…

And it was vast. So vast that it blotted out the skies, blanketing most of the Nine Realms.

And now… to his left and right, one dark, one pale. There were two boundless, unfathomable seas floated silently above Yu Zi Yu’s head.

“It’s time… to fuse them. Then, shoulder the Supreme Chaos Sea to become a Hegemon,” murmured Yu Zi Yu.

He acknowledged that he had spent far too long preparing.

To other cultivators, this span might not seem excessive, it might even be considered short.

However, as far as he was concerned, as someone who had only lived for just over two centuries, it felt like a near eternity.

In the past, Yu Zi Yu would never have believed he’d spend a century in seclusion… and even sit still for a decade just for a single breakthrough.

And yet now…

*Haaaa…* Heaving a sigh, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes suddenly sharpened.

Then, within them, a Divine Eye emerged.

His left eye, the Eye of Time…

His right eye, the Eye of Space…

As his Divine Eyes gleamed, the two vast Seas of Principle floating above his head began to stir, unleashing crashing waves.

*Splaaaash… Splaaaash…* The roar of tides surged across the Nine Realms.

And not only that, its echoes began to bleed beyond the realms, into the Void outside.

However, this… was only the beginning.

*Booooom… Booooom…* Amid the ever-deepening roars, the two vast seas began slowly converging, right before the stunned eyes of countless beings across the Nine Realms.

Though only separated by a mere ten thousand meters, the gap between them felt like an unbridgeable chasm.

For ten years, the two seas had not moved even an inch closer, but now, they were slowly drawing closer.

Fearsome waves swelled within each as the two seas closed the distance, bit by bit.

But suddenly, to everyone’s surprise…

*Crack… Crack…* One crisp cracking sound followed another, as the sky that lay between the two seas suddenly shattered, unable to withstand the strain.

Like a broken mirror, countless shards of Space floated into view…

*Booooom…* In the next instant, a violent shockwave swept across the sky, uprooting countless towering trees in an instant.

The entire world began to tremble.

“What is this?”

“No good! Master’s breakthrough… it’s too terrifying!”

“You’ve got to be kidding. This kind of storm…”

…

One alarmed cry after another echoed through the Nine Realms, as fear spread like wildfire.

It was like the end of days.

The terrifying shockwave engulfed everything in its path. Forests, mountains, everything turned to dust in an instant.

The swirling storm carried the debris, and surged forward at an unimaginable speed.

Even some Tier-5s couldn’t react in time, and were swallowed whole by the roaring tempest.

“Stop the spreading shockwave! Or the Nine Realms will be in grave danger…” A thunderous roar resounded from one of the realms.

A figure, its origin unknown, issued a command with authority.

“Yes, Second Brother!” Responding in unison, the entire Nine Realms sprang into action.

And then…

*Booooom, booooom, boooooom…* One explosive roar after another erupted across the realms, as countless overwhelming auras shot up into the Heavens.

They were the strongest powerhouses of the Nine Realms, each one a Tier-6 Overlord.

Now, at the command of Bull Demon, they all sprang into action.

*Rooooaar…* A majestic draconic roar reverberated from within the Realm of Ice, as a 10000 feet long creature soared through the sky. Its body was long, elegant, and breathtakingly beautiful.

It was Little White.

Having ascended to Tier-6, the former Flood Dragon had undergone a complete transformation, becoming a True Dragon of the Ice Element, a creature of extreme cold, absolute frost, and pure Yin.

Now, staring down the terrifying storm sweeping in from the edge of the world, she let out a long and piercing Dragon’s roar.

Then…

“Ice Age!” As she shouted aloud, an overwhelming chill surged outward, transforming into a seemingly endless, ice-blue tsunami, crashing toward the oncoming storm, freezing everything along the way.

*Crack… crack… crack…* With every crisp sound, the monstrous, all-consuming storm began to freeze before the naked eye, until it solidified at the very edge of the Heavens…

“Venerable White is… truly terrifying.”

“Of course. That’s the strongest being of our Realm of Ice.”

In awe, countless creatures of the Realm of Ice gazed reverently at the elegant figure dancing in the sky.

The Ice Dragon, also called Venerable White, was the most dreadful existence of the Realm of Ice.

At this moment, not only the Ice Dragon, other Tier-6 Overlords within various realms spring into action one after another…
