All the people in the city were either rejoicing or panicking over the immense transition they were about to experience.
The vast emotional turmoil excited all the Evil Fallen of the city.
Yet nobody noticed that, in a dimension imperceptible to them, something infinitely vast and mysterious was descending.
Only Bai Wu could see it.
The yellowing sky began to emit a kind of sandy yellow light, as if the entire world had been immersed in a giant dye vat.
After a moment of distraction, Bai Wu suddenly realized... the world around him, the buildings, billboards, streets, the soil beneath his feet, street lights, and even the moths, had all frozen in time.
They were all covered with a layer of sand.
The massive curtain vanished in an instant, leaving only two grand and mysterious presences filling the space between heaven and earth.
"So it's confirmed it's him, huh? Why don't we prepare a bit more... This is far from being tough, isn't it?" said the sharp, mocking voice.
