Most of the tribesmen from the Soul Race, Devourer Race, Dark Demon Race, and Ancient Demon Race were eternally sealed within that amber space, instantly tipping the scales of what should have been an evenly matched battle!

If this battle were to continue, the outcome was predictable: it would end with the annihilation of the four races!

Especially since the supreme leader of the Ancient Demon Race, Beifuri, one of the Ten Domain Ancestors, was also sealed. Without her presence, the highest level of combat saw Eijar, Youyu, and Rupert at a distinct disadvantage.

"Splash!"

A gurgling sound came from the sea. The Primordial Creature, the "Yuan," rapidly shrank within the black waters. As its body contracted, the seawater of that black ocean was little by little absorbed into its terrifying form.

In the blink of an eye, the Yuan vanished, and the Human Race avatar, Yuan Zu, reappeared, stepping out on a flowing river.

He looked up toward the shadow of the Celestial Serpent deep in the firmament, observing the purple radiance emanating from the Celestial Serpent Master. His expression was grim, his face cold. "There is no need to continue this fight. We are leaving this place."

Eijar, Youyu, and Rupert wore heavy expressions, their brows deeply furrowed as they looked at their clansmen beside them.

After this battle, their people had suffered devastating losses. Those sealed were their main forces; if they remained like fossilized ice sculptures, they might never emerge.

In contrast, the morale of Hantian and Xiluo’s side was soaring, their killing intent like a rainbow. The fierce and ferocious aura, eager to eradicate their enemies, signified an intense hunger for battle from those people.

The fight was no longer something they could control. If they insisted on persisting, their clansmen might all be buried here.

Eijar, Youyu, and Rupert nodded one after another, tacitly agreeing to their people's retreat and defeat, preparing to follow Yuan Zu and withdraw from this battlefield, thus concluding the engagement.

"Leaving so calmly won't be so easy." Xiluo of the Bone Race materialized like a gleaming golden sword, his sharpness and unparalleled aggressive aura firmly locking onto the three.

Hantian and Judy also sneered repeatedly. Extending a hand, Judy made a gesture, and numerous members of the Profound Heaven Race gathered. Soul Altars materialized in the sky, emitting vast and endless energy fluctuations.

"None of you have reached the Third Heaven of the Domain Ancestor realm. Do you think you qualify to intercept me?" Yuan Zu snorted.

The black river beneath his feet suddenly extended, flowing deep into the Void Sea. The profound meaning fluctuations emanating from the surging currents carried the most exquisite energetic aura of the Water Profundity. As long as the clansmen of Eijar, Youyu, and Rupert stepped into that river, they were immediately protected by his power.

The endless, winding stream, resembling a black ribbon, pulled everyone except Eijar, Rupert, and Youyu, drawing them away at extreme speed toward the distance.

Yuan Zu and the three great powerhouses stood guard at one end of that river, solemnly watching.

Hantian, Judy, Xiluo, Mantis, and the others felt the terrifying aura emanating from Yuan Zu and the stream. They were inwardly shaken and did not act immediately. Instead, they looked toward the purple radiance in the sky and the rocky outcrop not far away...

The Purple Radiance sat enthroned within the Amethyst Royal Seat, looking down from on high with indifference. "Let him go."

Everyone then turned their gaze to the rock formation. The rock formation grinned, a smile wicked and cold. "Let them go..."

Hantian and the others said no more. With grim faces, they watched the enemy depart, and no one moved to intercept them.

Soon, the tribesmen of the four races were carried away into the depths of the void by a black stream. Yuan Zu and Youyu’s gazes swept over the remaining group, and then they too stepped onto the stream, gradually moving further away.

When the stream completely vanished, the Celestial Serpent's true form of the Purple Radiance condensed into a cyan point of light, sinking into her brow. She slowly descended from the void, her graceful figure infinitely beautiful. "The Yuan’s strength is formidable. It did not participate in the final bloody war of the Primordial Era and thus bears no grave injuries. After accumulating power for so many years, its strength is terrifying. Unfortunately, its talent is insufficient; it is skilled in conspiracy and forbearance but dares not truly risk its life in cultivation and combat. As a result, while its divine power accumulation is incredibly deep, its realm has seen little breakthrough..."

The Purple Radiance looked at the others. "If we do not force it into a corner, its threat won't be particularly large. But once it feels its life is threatened and unleashes all the power accumulated over these eons, then everyone on our side, except those who have reached the Domain Ancestor realm, will have their souls scattered and spirits dispersed."

Upon hearing this, Hantian and the others looked sheepish, their confusion resolved.

"The Third Heaven of the Domain Ancestor realm is already the zenith for living beings of this heaven and earth. Moreover, it is a Primordial Creature. The power stored within its divine body is enough to destroy dozens of Domain Realms. If it explodes all at once, unless facing an equal in rank, very few can withstand it," the Purple Radiance stated calmly.

Everyone nodded secretly, then ceased speaking. They realized they had been intoxicated by the fruits of victory, letting their judgment slip.

"The victory in this battle has been sealed. The next step is to secure as many benefits as possible." The Purple Radiance smiled charmingly, her bright eyes fixed on the rock formation, speaking softly. "The Rock Formation will lead you to harvest more spoils of victory. A master of Spatial Profundity who has reached the Second Heaven of the Domain Ancestor realm will be the nightmare of all enemies!"

Everyone naturally looked toward the rock formation.

The rock formation grinned wickedly and spoke leisurely, "The gateway to the Soul Race's hinterland has been breached. Youyu’s three Domain Souls, painstakingly cultivated for ten thousand years, have already been seized. The Soul Race’s accumulated cultivation materials from tens of thousands of years should all be emptied by now. Elder Aimar and Mei Ji, they might have already started moving on the territories of the Dark Demon Race and the Ancient Demon Race..."

Hantian, Xiluo, Mantis, and the others were overjoyed upon hearing this and couldn't help but burst into loud laughter.

"Although Yuan Zu is powerful, he ultimately does not grasp the intricacies of Spatial Profundity. Even if Youyu and the others learn that their core has been plundered, it will take a considerable time for them to truly return," the rock formation’s expression turned wickedly cold. "But I can transport you instantly outside the territories of the Dark Demon Race and the Ancient Demon Race. By the time they return home, what we need to do should already be finished."

Everyone’s eyes lit up brilliantly.

The rock formation suddenly closed its eyes, and a shimmering spatial mirror flew out from between its brows. The spatial mirror rotated, reflecting different illusory spaces.

From those spaces, streaks of spatial light suddenly shot out. These lights slowly condensed and twisted, quickly forming two spatial tunnels.

"These can lead to the Dark Demon Race and the Ancient Demon Race respectively. As for whether you can break through the outer barriers, that will depend on your own capabilities," the rock formation roared.

Hantian, Xiluo, Mantis, and the others exchanged glances, letting out triumphant roars, and commanded their clan powerhouses to charge into the two void channels separately.

A large number of Profound Heaven Race and Bone Race tribesmen vanished into the tunnels. Through the ends of those tunnels, one could vaguely glimpse the blurred figures of Mei Ji, the Shark Emperor, and others.

Before long, in this region of the Volcanic Cloud Sea, only the rock formation and the Purple Radiance remained, apart from the amber-colored sealed space.

"This absolute seal of time and space is terrifying. Yuan Zu cannot break it, and neither can I," the Purple Radiance said thoughtfully, looking deeply at the site of the eternal seal. "This is a miracle, a true marvel created by the combined efforts of you and that girl. It can be revered by the living beings of later generations."

"To be honest, if we had to do it again, I wouldn't be confident in recreating such a miracle," the rock formation frowned. "Some things, aside from the resonance and communion of divine power and profundity, also involve opportunity and luck. I believe Mantis and I both know it's impossible to create this miracle again."

"You are absolutely correct. Many wondrous profound meanings require luck to manifest," the Purple Radiance agreed, then changed the topic. "How much energy did you collect this time?"

The rock formation did not answer, suddenly closing its eyes with a smile.

On the vast battlefield littered with corpses and suspended fragments of warships, seven colossal Devouring Abysses gradually emerged. The seven devouring black holes spun like hurricanes, surging with violent, unrestrained energy within them. This energy was highly mixed, containing too many impurities and negative odors.

All of it awaited purification, the removal of dross, and the refining of its essence.

Among them were many soul fragments, some appearing to be from the Profound Heaven Race and the Bone Race, and some from the Heavenly Craft Race. These soul fragments, due to the shattering of their souls, were left only with vague memories encased in energy, having lost the possibility of rebirth.

"Some of these were from the Profound Heaven Race and the Bone Race. Although they are utterly dead, if Hantian and Xiluo were to witness me absorbing them firsthand, they would still feel somewhat uneasy. Therefore, I could only wait until they left before gathering them one by one," the rock formation explained quietly.

The Purple Radiance smiled and nodded. "Yes, after all, they are their own kin. Even in death, they should rest well in their hearts. This is just their inability to let go. In this boundless heaven and earth, the dead and scattered souls will dissipate, transforming back into the energy of heaven and earth..."

Under the rock formation’s guidance of profundity, the seven devouring black holes slowly transformed into seven pitch-black spheres, successively vanishing into its brow.

His face twisted slightly, and he sucked in a cold breath. He roared, "Good fortune! This harvest is also substantial. It seems only bloody warfare is the fastest path for my breakthrough."

"What you can achieve, the Devourer... can achieve the same. With this era of great war beginning, it certainly won't remain quiescent," the Purple Radiance said with a look of worry. "Since returning to the Devourer Race's territory, its power has been slowly recovering. It must be that the Devourer clansmen are capturing the sentient beings of the realms they govern and handing them over for it to swallow and refine. If its power recovers to a certain extent, and it becomes confident enough not to fear the true powerhouses of the seven races, it will certainly leave the Devourer Ancestral Land and begin sweeping across the vast starry sea, consuming everything. I have a persistent feeling it will seize this chance to strike..."

"There will inevitably be a battle between it and me. My Devouring Profundity originated from it; only by refining it can I claim sole mastery of the Devouring Profundity!" the rock formation stated coldly.

"That ray of light within the Profundity Talisman Tower might be the key to your victory!" The Purple Radiance’s eyes shone brightly. "It is the light that helped you break free from Zhen Ru’s invasion. Legend holds that this ray of light was the very first light emitted when the Primordial Being opened its eyes upon awakening. One of the primary materials used to temper the Profundity Talisman Tower is the Eye of Primordium..."
