Chapter 441 - 443: Lide’s Breakthrough to Legendary, the Beginning of Reaching the Peak (9200 words)
Time flowed ceaselessly, and under the rifts in the sky, the situation of Glory further deteriorated.
The breath of ancient days seeped into the Main Plane through those rifts, much like water leaking from a dam. As time progressed, the ancient powers grew denser, leading to more and more lives being corroded by this ancient force, making the situation increasingly unmanageable.
Crops failed, rivers were polluted, plants began to wither, and the worshipers of the Evil God became increasingly rampant, with order collapsing step by step.
The servants of the ancient Evil Gods and the creatures corrupted by the ancient days rampaged across the Main Plane. These chaotic and brutal monsters, knowing only slaughter, left ruins and desolation wherever they went.
Compelled by necessity, small cities began to converge towards larger cities, and the large cities also actively retracted their powers from beyond their outskirts.
The final scenario had the large cities as cores, forming isolated "islands" on land, with the traffic between cities resembling navigation at sea, always vigilant of the storm of ancient monsters that might strike.
But the worst had not yet ended, with the formation of city-islands, a major event shook the entirety of Glory.
The Sun Goddess, transformed into a saint, used her Divine Arts to convey a message to her followers—the fragments of the Destiny Tablet could dispel the breath of ancient days and restore normality to the rules.
This message, jolting countless forces, immediately captured everyone’s attention.
At such a critical moment, the omnipresent erosion of ancient power had become a nightmare in everyone’s minds.
Because no one knew if they would be the next person affected by the ancient power, or if their relatives and friends were being corrupted.
The fragments of the Destiny Tablet could restore everything to normal, which was a lifeline for everyone.
