The battle came to an abrupt halt.
As the raging divine power storms slowly dispersed, the all-heaven army found themselves unable to accustom themselves to the sudden peace for a time.
An all-heaven Saint expert asked in an uncertain manner, “The battle has ended?!”
Jin Luo, Cang Yuan and the other prime sovereigns cast their gazes over, peering into the distance and saw the giant divine crystal egg glowing dazzlingly amidst the darkness.
Zhou Yuan’s figure was silently standing some distance from the giant egg with his head lowered as if he was an inanimate puppet.
“The Sacred God has entered the transformation phase,” said prime sovereign Jin Luo with a complicated expression. Although the Sacred God could no longer pursue them, he would emerge much stronger once his transformation was complete. When that time eventually arrived, there would be no change to the all-heaven’ fate.
“What’s going on with Zhou Yuan?” Cang Yuan felt somewhat suspicious. Although the Sacred God had entered his transformation phase, there was no movement from Zhou Yuan. There seemed to be something fishy about this situation.
The other Saint experts shook their heads.
Prime sovereign Chi Ji asked, “Should we go over and see? He’s currently our only god stage expert. Although the Sacred God has entered his transformation phase, this might also be a chance for us.”
The others’ eyes brightened. With the Sacred God currently encased in divine power crystals, they might be able to do some damage to him if they managed to hinder his transformation.
However, the spreading divine light from the giant crystal egg made it impossible for Saint experts like them to approach. Hence, only an existence who also possessed divine force like Zhou Yuan could destroy the divine power crystal.
However, the cautious prime sovereign Jin Luo ultimately shook his head and said, “Let’s wait and observe for a while. The warning he shouted earlier makes me feel somewhat uneasy.”
The crowd nodded as their expressions grew somewhat solemn. All of them had clearly heard Zhou Yuan’s final warning. He was not someone who spoke without thinking, and there must be a reason for him to have said that.
Hence, the most rational choice would be to first observe the situation.
As such, the all-heaven army stopped and watched from far away.
This situation, however, did not last for long. The all-heaven army soon saw Zhou Yuan’s still figure suddenly begin to tremble.
He slowly raised his head and looked towards the all-heaven army.
When they saw Zhou Yuan’s gaze, all-heaven experts instantly felt a chill surge out from the bottom of their hearts, their entire bodies turning ice-cold as fear filled their faces.
Zhou Yuan’s eyes were filled with craziness and chaos, no longer any trace of the calmness and intelligence they once held.
He resembled a wild beast without reason that made others shiver in fear.
Roar!
Zhou Yuan opened his mouth and released an explosive roar. Saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth, his expression terrifyingly sinister and his eyes filled with chaos and madness.
Boom!
His figure suddenly shot forward like a lightning bolt, pouncing straight at the all-heaven army.
Cang Yuan, Jin Luo and the others felt a chill rush through their entire bodies. Soon after, they powerfully roared, “Quickly retreat! Quickly retreat!”
Zhou Yuan clearly no longer had any shred of rationality. If they allowed him to reach them, he would surely start a merciless massacre.
Cang Yuan and the others did not know why Zhou Yuan had suddenly become like this, but it was clearly the Sacred God’s work!
The all-heaven army frantically withdrew once more, streaks of light scattering in all directions.
However, Zhou Yuan’s speed was more frightening than they could imagine. In a single step, he crossed the rivers of stars and appeared behind the all-heaven army, before thrusting his palm, sending out surging divine power that shattered space itself.
Jin Luo, Cang Yuan, Di Long and Chi Ji immediately released their full power without hesitation, sending out four Saint force torrents in an attempt to buy some time for the escaping army.

Boom!
The four mighty Saint force torrents instantly crumbled upon impact as the four prime sovereigns were flung backwards amidst sprays of blood.
Even the four of them joining forces could not hinder Zhou Yuan for a moment.
Zhou Yuan’s crazy eyes glowed red as divine power transformed into a giant palm that viciously swatted at the four prime sovereigns.
Thud!
However, a giant purple-gold beast suddenly appeared and ruthlessly charged into Zhou Yuan’s body, sending him flying over a ten thousand miles.
Roar!
Tuntun released a deafening roar at Zhou Yuan in an attempt to awaken him.
Swoosh!
However, Zhou Yuan had clearly already lost all rationality. His scarlet eyes stared at Tuntun and he took a step forward, crossing ten thousand miles in an instant as a punch infused with churning divine power pierced through the air and smashed towards Tuntun.
Tuntun felt a fatal danger from the punch.
However, it did not move away and stubbornly continued to roar at Zhou Yuan.
Just as the punch was about to land, Yaoyao’s figure appeared on Tuntun’s head. She gazed into Zhou Yuan’s crazed eyes, her own turning red as she loudly shouted, “Zhou Yuan, please wake up!”
Rumble!
The fist infused with powerful divine force froze above Tuntun, stopping only a thousand feet from Yaoyao as terrifying fist winds unfurled like a storm, rippling the surrounding space.
The scarlet-eyed Zhou Yuan stared at the figure on Tuntun’s head, as the chaos and madness in his eyes began to flicker in a struggling manner.
Yaoyao’s eyes were red as she called out, a never before heard tenderness in her voice, “Zhou Yuan, no matter what happens, there must be a solution to this. Please believe in me. So please wake up!”
The madness in Zhou Yuan’s eyes flickered even more frantically as torrential killing intent erupted from his body. The floating divine fist began to shake as if about to fall apart.
In the end, Zhou Yuan howled before turning around and fleeing.
Yaoyao gritted her teeth and urged, “Tuntun, follow him quickly!”
Tuntun immediately responded, turning into a streak of light as it shot forward in pursuit of Zhou Yuan.
Behind them, the panic-stricken all-heaven experts were paralyzed in place, breathing deeply with deathly white complexions.
Jin Luo, Cang Yuan, Di Long and Chi Ji gathered again and looked at each other, seeing the others’ agonized expressions. No one had expected their final hope, Zhou Yuan, to end up in such a state.
“It seems that Zhou Yuan’s breakthrough has also left him with many problems...the Sacred God also did something earlier, causing him to lose his rationality and fall into this state of madness.” Cang Yuan smiled bitterly.
Prime sovereign Chi Ji sighed and asked, “What do we do now?”
Prime sovereign Jin Luo’s old face was filled with exhaustion. The many twists and turns had left him mentally and physically drained. In the end, he could only say in a low voice, “We’ll bring the all-heaven army back first. Yaoyao has already gone to pursue Zhou Yuan, and we can’t help much either way. We can only hope that she can somehow awaken him, or else…”
He did not need to complete his sentence, because everyone knew what he meant. If Zhou Yuan failed to regain his clarity, the all-heaven final hope would be gone. If that was the case, they would only wait for them to be erased when the Sacred God completed his transformation.
The all-heaven experts silently stared in the direction Zhou Yuan had fled in. In the end, they retreated in a dispirited and lifeless manner.
The area once again became quiet after the heaven-shocking battle. Only the giant egg made from divine power crystal was left, the boundless divine light spouting from it turning the originally cold and desolate domain gorgeous and dazzling.
Like the final blossoming of brilliance before destruction.
