Let's start by analyzing the sun

#1001 - 【984】Dark Ages

"The void is about to shatter!"

The sudden arrival of General Lan Yun, dropping such a sentence, made Cheng Han's mind buzz, and his whole being was greatly impacted.

Because the void is a vast, boundless area, almost equivalent to a plane, and all worlds, large and small, are surrounded by the void.

He had never imagined that the void would one day shatter.

This completely subverted his understanding.

If General Lan Yun hadn't personally come to deliver the message, he would never have believed it.

Cheng Han recalled the strange feeling he had just experienced, and a thought suddenly surged in his mind. He repeatedly asked, "May I ask, is this the work of 'Calamity'?"

This guess was immediately confirmed.

General Lan Yun nodded: "Yes."

Cheng Han sighed: "As expected."

He had already thought of this when the deduction failed, because only existences at the level of Supreme Gods can circumvent the deductions of the Omniscient Law.

General Lan Yun then explained in a serious tone: "According to the information gathered by His Majesty, at least four Calamities are working together to tear apart the void, and possibly more."

Cheng Han was greatly shocked: "So many?!"

He instantly thought of another matter, and asked: "May I ask, was the Eleventh Calamity some time ago just a pawn to attract the attention of various races?"

Judging from the current situation, this looked very much like a feint attack.

That is, on the surface, the Eleventh Calamity was stirring up trouble in the Nanli Star Cluster, while the other Calamities were secretly doing something big.

General Lan Yun's beautiful face looked quite heavy: "Their Majesties also believe so."

She paused, and added: "Their Majesties also have another point of view. They believe that the Tenth Calamity hunted down by our race, and the Twelfth Calamity that destroyed the Celestial God Star Sea,"

"And the swarms of Calamity insects wreaking havoc everywhere, are all roles to attract attention. Their role is to cover up other Calamities shattering the void."

Cheng Han nodded, and echoed: "Indeed."

General Lan Yun concluded: "Including the Wan Hao race, all races have been greatly deceived, and have overlooked the real danger."

She sighed again: "Emperor Rong also said that the real Calamity of the Era has only just begun."

The goddess general's expression faintly revealed a sense of pessimism.

Cheng Han had a very bad feeling in his heart, and asked with a last glimmer of hope: "May I ask, is all of this unavoidable?"

General Lan Yun shook her head: "It is too late now, Their Majesties are powerless, and the Supreme Gods of all races can do nothing."

The general did not explain specifically how they were "powerless".

Cheng Han did not pursue the matter, because matters that even the Supreme Gods could not handle must have far exceeded his current limits.

He thought for a while, and asked: "May I ask, what might happen after the void shatters?"

General Lan Yun did not answer immediately, but looked up at the sky without blinking.

Cheng Han was a little strange, and also looked up.

But he saw nothing.

Only the smoke and dust created by the large-scale bombing drifted to a high place with the wind.

General Lan Yun's face was very bad: "The Tian Rong Light Shuttle has not arrived, it seems it has already begun."

The "already begun" that the general was talking about obviously meant that the process of the void shattering had already begun.

She then turned to look at Cheng Han, and answered his previous question: "The plane laws have been blocked by Calamity, the Tian Rong Light Shuttle cannot be activated, and many people may never be able to return."

The goddess general's eyes contained a strange meaning, as if to say: You may not be able to return either.

Cheng Han's heart skipped a beat.

He had just guessed that the general had hurriedly descended to the Scarlet Realm, and had also brought such shocking news, probably wanting to urgently take him away.

The general had been babbling non-stop, and it turned out that she was waiting for the Tian Rong Light Shuttle to arrive.

Judging from the information revealed by the general, the problem seemed to be more serious than expected.

Cheng Han couldn't help but ask a question: "May I ask, is it not possible to forcibly cross the void?"

General Lan Yun shook her head again, and explained: "I do not know what will happen in the void, but since the Tian Rong Light Shuttle cannot pass through, then crossing the void must be impossible."

Cheng Han was immediately silent.

On the other hand.

His heart was full of confusion. If he couldn't go back, what should he do?

Until this moment.

He truly understood why the first God Emperors were so worried about the Calamity of the Era.

At the beginning, the Wan Hao race successively eliminated two Calamities, and severely damaged another Calamity, and the situation was very good.

Cheng Han felt more or less that the "Calamity of the Era was nothing more than that".

He always felt that, if the current momentum continued, eliminating all the Calamities from the Twelfth Calamity to the First Calamity was only a matter of time.

Now he suddenly realized that the previous Calamities had not used their full strength at all, they were just playing around, and now they had released their real big move.

The "bigness" of this big move also completely exceeded his limits of imagination.

He underestimated Calamity.

Everyone underestimated Calamity.

Cheng Han asked in a tone of seeking advice: "May I ask, what should we do next?"

This time.

General Lan Yun did not respond immediately.

After a few seconds.

She sighed: "The plane laws are about to change drastically, and the Supreme God Court does not have more information. Everyone can only adapt to the circumstances."

The general's expression was even more pessimistic: "The future of the Wan Hao race is destined to be extremely difficult. I hope that the God Emperors can lead the Wan Hao race through this calamity."

Cheng Han was silent, feeling very complicated.

He had known General Lan Yun for many years, and it was the first time he had seen the general show such a pessimistic side.

Cheng Han's gaze turned to the distant battlefield.

It was still full of artillery fire.

The four-race coalition was still fighting bravely, unaware of the terrible disaster that was about to come.

Just then.

Cheng Han suddenly heard a strange sound.

"Crack!"

This was a phantom sound, it sounded like something was breaking.

At the same time.

An extremely obscure wave swept across in an instant, and the entire Scarlet Realm was shrouded in it.

General Lan Yun also heard this sound, and her ears moved almost imperceptibly.

Cheng Han was stunned for a moment, and asked subconsciously: "Has the void shattering begun?"

General Lan Yun's expression was a little nervous: "It should be."

Cheng Han hesitated for a moment, and silently performed a deduction.

Originally, he did not expect the deduction to have results, after all, this major event was directly related to Calamity.

However.

Unexpectedly.

This deduction actually had results.

After a while.

Countless stars twinkled.

A halo emerged.

Layers of ripples surged in the very center. When the ripples subsided, a blurry picture appeared.

What came into view.

This was a boundless darkness, with a large number of twisted ink colors floating in it.

Each "ink color" was actually each large world and small world.

The world laws of each world interacted with the destructive energy in the void, that is, the endless void turbulence, to produce this visual distortion.

At this moment.

Cheng Han vaguely saw strange gray lines emerging from nowhere, rapidly extending in the void.

He naturally understood that these gray lines were definitely the work of Calamity, and they were likely to be the rifts that divided the void.

And the void was an area filled with endless violent energy. Calamity could forcibly divide it, which showed how terrifying their power was.

After a dozen breaths.

Countless fissures had already covered half of the dark area in the halo.

Cheng Han was shocked.

Although the dark range did not seem too large from the picture.

But he knew better than anyone how vast the void was. Using the phrase "boundless" to describe it was definitely a "realistic" description.

And several Calamities working together could stir the void into such a state, it was really too terrifying.

He did not doubt at all that each Calamity involved in it must be more powerful than the Twelfth Calamity.

Cheng Han swallowed hard, and asked: "May I ask, which Calamity is the most powerful among those participating in the shattering of the void?"

General Lan Yun's divine eyes flickered, and she said the answer: "Emperor Rong said that the First Calamity is very likely to have appeared."

The implication was that the First Calamity had taken action.

Cheng Han murmured to himself: "No wonder!"

The First Calamity was obviously the most powerful Calamity, and also the number one "BOSS" of this Calamity of the Era.

Since the First Calamity had personally taken the field, it was not too strange to cause such a thing.

After another second

A shocking change suddenly occurred.

The halo picture trembled, and then collapsed into snowflakes.

This was undoubtedly the Omniscient Law being interfered with by a very powerful force, causing the deduction to be hindered.

However.

Although he could not see it.

The phantom sound in Cheng Han's mind was becoming more and more frequent.

"Crack! Crack!"

It sounded like a piece of glass was constantly breaking.

General Lan Yun would naturally not be unable to hear it.

She sighed particularly often today: "The void seems to be accelerating its shattering."

Cheng Han came back to his senses, and responded a little absentmindedly: "I don't know what the void will become."

With the spatial laws he had mastered, he could clearly sense that a world-shaking super-change was taking place in the void.

General Lan Yun did not answer.

Because she did not know either.

After a few more seconds.

The general suddenly said a sentence: "Emperor Rong also seemed to say that the First Calamity has a name, called 'Dark'."

Cheng Han was stunned for a moment, and muttered softly: "What a strange name."

Soon.

He understood why the First Calamity had such a name.

"Buzz～"

The entire Scarlet Realm suddenly shook continuously, as if a small earthquake had occurred.

This was a shaking in the physical sense, and a clear tremor could be felt underfoot.

This was obviously the impact of the void shattering.

It was like a ship sailing on the river. If the river changed, the ship could not be unaffected.

The void was the river that had changed, and the Scarlet Realm was the ship on the surface of the river.

The entire battlefield was immediately affected, and the "boom boom" explosions decreased a lot.

Then.

An incredible phenomenon occurred.

The scarlet color that faintly appeared in the sky of the Scarlet Realm quickly faded away completely.

A darkness replaced it, and the sky was obviously dimmed a lot.

It was noon.

But it looked like dusk.

What was even more bizarre was that, when observing the surrounding environment with the naked eye, the air seemed to be filled with a faint black mist.

But after looking at it a few more times, the existence of the black mist could not be seen.

Cheng Han instantly thought of the name "Dark", and his face was full of surprise and uncertainty: "May I ask, is this the power of 'Dark' interfering with the Scarlet Realm?"

General Lan Yun nodded: "It should be."

She paused, and added: "I am afraid that the plane laws have been affected."

Cheng Han was greatly shocked.

To forcibly change the plane laws with one's own strength, what a powerful force this was.

He also looked in the direction of the battlefield, and muttered: "I am afraid that the war has been temporarily terminated."

General Lan Yun echoed: "The Council of Gods should soon issue an order to stop the war."

No one knew what kind of changes would occur after the void shattered.

To be on the safe side, military operations must be stopped, and then the army must be gathered to do defensive work.

After a few seconds.

Cheng Han tentatively did another deduction.

This time, the Omniscient Law was not hindered, and the result came out smoothly.

He only glanced at the halo picture, and was shocked again.

It could be seen.

The darkness representing the void had been completely torn apart, turning into scattered dark fragments, the number of which was difficult to count.

Each fragment contained several or a dozen small worlds.

Some larger fragments even contained hundreds of small worlds.

This was the literal meaning of "shattering".

The shattering of the void turned each race into separate "islands".

This was definitely the true intention of Calamity.

That is, to isolate the various races, making it impossible for them to unite together.

Cheng Han could not help but ask another question: "May I ask, after the void shatters, what kind of changes will occur in the area between different fragments?"

General Lan Yun immediately replied: "Emperor Xing said that the gaps between the void fragments will become eternal 'Lands of Nothingness'."

Cheng Han asked: "What are the Lands of Nothingness?"

General Lan Yun explained: "There is no law there, and there is no power. Once you enter it, your power will slowly dissipate, and you will also lose your way."

She paused, and said: "This will mean one thing, as long as you enter the Lands of Nothingness, you may never be able to get out."

Cheng Han was horrified.

"Dissipating power" was actually easy to understand, it was like salt diffusing from a high-concentration solution to a low-concentration solution.

But "losing direction" made Cheng Han a little difficult to understand.

He asked: "Why will you lose direction?"

General Lan Yun explained: "This may be the interference of 'Calamity'."

Cheng Han suddenly understood: "Could this be the power of Darkness?"

At this moment.

He finally understood why Jie shattered the void.

This was indeed a very vicious plan.

However.

Cheng Han's expression still held a hint of subtlety.
