*Roooooaar…* Suddenly, a thunderous and majestic roar echoed, shaking the entire Realm of Void.

Looking up, a Lightning Dragon could be seen stretched across the sky, with a body so long that it resembled a huge wall that bridged the world together.

And this was Yu Zi Yu’s Innate Talent — Mastery of Lightning, which allowed him to give the formless lightning a tangible shape, ultimately manifesting in the form of a Dragon.

Lightning was the most tyrannical of forces, and Dragons were the most domineering of races.

Their natures aligned perfectly.

Thus, Yu Zi Yu’s Mastery of Lightning manifested as a Lightning Dragon.

In fact, the fact that Yu Zi Yu possessed both Purple Dragon and Azure Dragon had also played a huge role in it.

His deep understanding of the Dragon Clan had guided the transformation toward the Lightning Dragon and also enabled him to wield it with even greater mastery.

However, all of this was not important.

Now that the Lightning Dragon had descended, it was time to mould it.

With that thought, Yu Zi Yu’s Spiritual Energy surged, and he murmured softly, “Body Formation Art…”

The moment these words left his lips, his entire being trembled, for at that instant, an indescribable sensation enveloped him. He felt as if his body was being guided by an unseen force.

The next moment, one branch after another extended from Yu Zi Yu, reaching deep into the vast thunderclouds that had spread over half the world.

And now, as countless branches plunged into them, the entire stretch of thunderclouds quivered.

Faintly, it was as if two invisible hands were kneading the boundless storm.

Upon closer inspection, one would notice that the thunderclouds were indeed compressed into a singular mass, a sphere of pure lightning.

Meanwhile, Yu Zi Yu’s countless branches had transformed into hands of creation, for at this moment, Yu Zi Yu had begun using the Body Formation Art, molding the thunderclouds into a living being.

It was akin to the legend of Nuwa molding Humans.

However, unlike Nuwa, who used the Primordial Earth Essence—Celestial Breathing Soil to shape Humans, Yu Zi Yu was using the Nine Realms Lightning Tribulation to forge a Tree.

Perhaps, the Nine Realms Tribulation Lightning could not compare to the Primordial Earth Essence. However, that hardly mattered, for the formless spirit, the Lightning Dragon, was the manifestation of Yu Zi Yu’s Innate Talent.

*Roooooaar…* Suddenly, a majestic Dragon Roar reverberated across the sky.

Looking toward the source, one would see the silhouette of an immense tree taking form within the storm-wrought sky. And coiled around it was a Lightning Dragon, entwining around its trunk.

In just a few breaths, the Dragon had wrapped itself fully around the Colossal Tree.

Yu Zi Yu’s Innate Talent—Mastery of Lightning was an intangible spirit.

Whereas this Tree, born of the Nine Realms Tribulation Lightning, was a tangible entity.

One tangible, and one intangible, yet, together, they were in harmony with the Great Dao, just like the Soul and the body.

*Booooooom…* Suddenly, a thunderous explosion erupted, and the Lightning Dragon, coiled around the Tree, began to turn illusory, and slowly merged seamlessly into the Towering Tree.

Yu Zi Yu could not help but grin.

He had not expected things to go this smoothly.

In fact, he had forgotten that the Nine Realms Lightning Tribulation was born of the Nine Realms, and the Nine Realms themselves were but an extension of his own power.

Fusion with the Nine Realms Lightning Tribulation was just a matter of his will.

Thus, the fusion process was destined to proceed smoothly.

In fact, the true challenge had yet to begin, and that was where Yu Zi Yu’s real troubles lay.

*Hoooooo…* Taking a deep breath, Yu Zi Yu gazed at the tree of lightning that now floated silently in the sky, his eyes flickering with anticipation.

Arcs of lightning slithered around its branches, and if one looked closely, they would see a Lightning Dragon resting upon the tree.

Its head raised high atop the thickest branch, and its tail merged with the primary root.

With each breath the Lightning Dragon took, the entire tree inhaled and exhaled thousands of bolts of lightning.

This was the embryonic form of the Divine Lightning Tree, but it was not yet complete, because it lacked true vitality.

It was not yet alive, and breathing life into it was the greatest trial of the Body Formation Art.

However, after his initial experiment with Ling Er, Yu Zi Yu had some confidence.

With a faint smile, he prepared to take the final step—The hardest step of all…

…

Time flowed like a river, and in the blink of an eye, six months had passed.

During this time, the Demon Court, the Society of Demons and Fiends, and other Forces under Yu Zi Yu remained eerily calm.

Perhaps due to the Void Clan’s last incursion, the Major Forces of the Western Sector had chosen an unprecedented silence.

With an external threat looming at the borders, none dared to act recklessly.

After all, if they were to fall into disarray, they might suffer the same fate as the Angel Clan, their home invaded by the Void Clan, a tragedy beyond words.

Not every Force could withstand an invasion led by a Void Emperor.

Not every Force had a monstrous powerhouse like the Fifth Seraph, Alarion.

Thus, for the first time, the great Forces chose unity over conflict.

Even the Angel Clan, spearheading the resistance, saw the Holy Light Alliance grow stronger in its efforts to repel the Void Clan Invasion.

In other words, the five strongest Forces of the Western Sector, namely the Angel Star Domain, Titan Star Domain, Elemental Clan, Demon Court, and the First Tower of the World, had allied against the Void Clan.

And for the weaker Forces, this was nothing short of a catastrophe.

After all, while the Western Sector may not have been mapped by anyone, it was extremely vast, so vast that galaxies were scattered like dust across the cosmos.

While many of them were barren wastelands, a significant number harbored thriving civilizations and powerful Forces.

Among them were second-tier forces like the Centauri Race, Crystal Race, and Beast Clan.

And third-tier powers like the Blood Demon Clan, hiding away in the remote Kadar Star Domain.

The number of such factions was innumerable.

But now, with the top Forces uniting, one could imagine the consequences for the weaker Forces.

…

At this point, it should be brought to attention that the Blood Demon Clan had rarely attracted the attention of other Forces because it had been cowering in the relatively remote Kadar Star Domain.

In fact, most Forces were completely unaware that the Kadar Star Domain, the Society of Demons and Fiends, and even the Heavenly Court had been waging war for the past six months.

And speaking strictly in terms of power, aside from the Void Clan, the Society of Demons and Fiends was already a Force comparable to the Major Forces, yet no one truly grasped its strength.

The Society of Demons and Fiends was a force of darkness, one of the Supreme Evil Forces of the Western Sector. And such Forces were not few.

However, most remained hidden deep in the shadows, for in the Western Sector, survival for Supreme Evil Forces depended on one thing and one thing only—secrecy.

And why? Because this Sector was home to the Angel Clan, a race that preached ‘the eradication of evil’ at every opportunity.

If one did not wish to wake up the next day and find countless Angels descending from the skies, chanting ‘purge the filth,’ then keeping a low profile was a necessity.

Of course, that did not mean that the dark and evil Forces had vanished.

Quite the opposite, the more they were suppressed, the more terrifying their resurgence would be.

The darkness of the Western Sector had long been nurtured in silence, growing, strengthening.

Whether it was the ever-expanding Society of Demons and Fiends or the unfathomable Dark Expanse, these Forces lurked like predators in the shadows, their eyes fixed upon the entire Western Sector.

And interestingly enough, the so-called Heavenly Court, condemned by all, was itself a dark Force.

After all, the Heavenly Court thrived in the shadows, unseen by the world.

Thus, one could only imagine just how fearsome the dark Forces in the Western Sector had grown.

To put it simply, the Five Emperors of the Heavenly Court alone were terrifying beyond words, for among them, four were Tier-6 Overlords.

Dark Expanse, previously mentioned in 926, but considering the division of the entire universe in Sector, I’ve decided to change it to Dark Expanse.}
