...
Scarlet blood splattered across the earth and broken walls;
Seeing this, Brand's initially raised heart finally relaxed...
Brand also didn't know how he could have that feeling of his hairs standing on end when facing a mere Third Tier ant, but no matter what, he was already dead and no longer posed any threat.
"... Playing the fool."
Brand coldly snorted and turned to walk towards the other side of the road.
One step,
Two steps,
Two steps...
Two steps... Two steps...
Brand's figure was like a video stuttering due to a network disconnection, constantly repeating the motion of taking the second step on the street. The broken time and space flickered on the screen like green blocks, chillingly bizarre.
And Brand himself seemed not to have noticed the abnormality, still continuously stuttering the action of the second step. The colors of him and the world began to continuously fade and disappear, until the world turned black and white...
Like a broken, old-fashioned television.
And at this time, in this silent black and white TV, an extremely bright and scarlet giant pillar rumbled into the sky from the ruins behind Brand!!
...
"That... that is...?!"
Bursts of exclamation came from the Magic Hat. Jack of Clubs, who was still rapidly fleeing, couldn't help but look back.
He saw the distant city ruins flicker one after another, and in the next second, they completely turned into two colors of black and white, as if falling into some kind of color purgatory... And with a blink of Jack of Clubs' eyes, he found himself also placed in the black and white TV world.
This scene occurred instantly without any buffering, spanning hundreds of miles, as if a malfunction occurred in the world...
But faintly, Jack of Clubs barely saw this process clearly. It wasn't an instantaneous change in the world, but a terrifying Domain that enveloped the entire Domain in an instant at almost the speed of light!
"World-Destroying Domain?" 10 of Diamonds spoke in shock. "Isn't this spreading speed a bit too fast..."
"We ran like this, yet we couldn't even run out of that thing's range?"
"This is trouble now..."
Under everyone's horrified gazes, a scarlet giant pillar surged from the ruins towards the sky... That wasn't flames, but bizarre Red Papers, hundreds of millions of them swirling together, like the eye of a storm connecting heaven and earth, bright, hideous, and arrogant in the black and white world!
"Is that... Mister?" Kong Baosheng stared blankly at this scene, his entire person stunned in place.
He didn't understand what World-Ending was, nor did he understand the Calamity of Mockery, but at this moment, he could feel the terrifying Oppressive Aura brought by that Red Paper eye of the storm. In the center of that churning storm, it was as if something was about to break out...
"Scarlet Master of the Ghastly Mocking Abyss, Formless King Who Mocks Fate."
Chu Muyun furrowed his brows and slowly spoke, "He actually really released this thing..."
"It's been quite a few years since a World-Ending Calamity appeared, hasn't it? To think we could see two in one go today." Nine of Hearts tutted in amazement. "Now, there's truly a good show to watch."
"Both are World-Ending, so why do I feel... the Calamity of Mockery's Aura seems somewhat different?" Bai Ye was deep in thought.
"Spades... Spades?? What's wrong with you??"
Just as everyone's gazes were attracted by the distant Red Paper storm, Eight of Clubs' exclamation came from behind.
Everyone turned their heads and saw Jian Changsheng, who was just chatting and joking a moment ago, now had veins bulging on his neck. He stared fixedly at the churning Red Paper storm, and his pair of eyes were gradually stained with pitch-black...
An ancient Way of the Soldier killing intent surged out from his body like a torrent of rust from the Ancient Vault of the Military Path;
"Little Jian?!"
Seeing this, Chu Muyun's heart jumped. He suddenly remembered that in the Big Dipper Manor in Aurora City, Jian Changsheng had also experienced this kind of unforeseen event... And at that time, Chen Ling had also released a portion of the Calamity of Mockery's power.
Before he could speak again, Jian Changsheng turned into a black shadow and crashed out of the Magic Hat headfirst. Under Jack of Clubs' astonished gaze, he landed steadily on the ground. Then, in the next moment, he swept across the earth like black lightning, charging straight towards the direction of the Red Paper eye of the storm!
"One after another... what's the situation??" Nine of Hearts was completely dumbfounded.
The Aura exuding from Jian Changsheng just now truly frightened Nine of Hearts. This Six of Spades, who always made him feel perfectly ordinary without any bright spots, suddenly seemed to have changed faces... That kind of ancient and pure Way of the Soldier killing intent was absolutely not something an ordinary person could possess!
So in the end, there isn't a single normal person in the [6] generation??
...
Buzz—!!
Outside the Red Dust Domain, the Dust Dragon smelled that disgusting Aura carved deep in its soul. In its empty Wind Tunnel-like eyes, wisps of deep blue flames rubbed and burst forth!
It was like a thoroughly enraged tyrannosaurus, directly ignoring Su Zhiwei, who was still struggling to fight one against two. It flapped its skeletal wind wings and rapidly crashed towards the red flower hiding the Red Dust Domain!
Its giant mouth opened, and a dragon breath brewed within the bones. Under the Oppressive Aura that changed the color of heaven and earth, the sighing hurricane surged out!
This time, the Dust Dragon was obviously truly enraged. The power of the dragon breath simply wasn't something the previous two times could compare to. The most intuitive manifestation was that this time's dragon breath was no longer slowly diffusing like a gentle breeze, but as if compressing all the hurricane to the extreme, turning into a thick blue giant pillar!
This ball of dragon breath pierced through the dimensional rift and surged from the Gray World into the Red Dust. But before it could rush down from the clouds, that giant eye of the storm interwoven by hundreds of millions of Red Papers directly swallowed it!
The blue dragon breath churned within the Red Paper storm, like a living creature trapped in a cage, frantically crashing but unable to cross the slightest bit. In the next moment, the dragon breath was completely crushed within the storm, turning into a colorless ring-shaped hurricane that spread within the black and white world!
Buzz—!!
Swept by the aftermath, Brand, who was stuck on the "second step", was also like being forcefully squeezed out of the rift in time and space, staggering and falling headfirst to the ground!
"Just now, that was..." Brand stared blankly at his own body, his eyes full of terror!
He fiercely turned back to look, only to see that the churning Red Paper eye of the storm was actually gradually separating to both sides, as if some existence had torn open this curtain from the inside with both hands and slowly walked out...
That was a "human" figure.
It wasn't a creature like the Shadow Centipede, Toad, or Scorpion, nor was it a Dust Dragon like the Cessation Calamity... It was just a "human", a "human"-shaped existence that possessed limbs, a head, and could walk upright.
The instant that "human" tore apart the Red Paper eye of the storm and slowly stepped out, a World-Ending tier Oppressive Aura tore apart time and space, descending with a bang!
