Above the Grand Supreme Amphitheater, the vaulted ceiling groaned with ancient celestial power.
Huge interlocking plates of star-iron and crystal glass slid into the golden walls, opening the entire dome to the open heavens.
The autumn sky above Central Sky-Jade City suddenly darkened.
Violet lightning crackled along the edge of the clouds. A deep, resonant hum vibrated through the earth-veins, so intense that teacups rattled on tables and cultivators instinctively gripped their armrests.
Space tore open like silk.
An immense spatial rift spanned ten miles across the sky, glowing with radiant purple starlight.
Descending slowly through the rift was the colossal silhouette of a floating primordial landmass.
HUMMMMMM.
