Chapter 233

After the black giant collapsed, the dark aura throughout the space suddenly receded like a rushing tide, as if a terrifying dream had been slashed away by a single blade. The surrounding air returned to normal, but Chen Haotian knew this did not mean the battle was over; if anything, it was merely the beginning of another trial. He took a deep breath, slowly opening his eyes with a surge of intense power coursing through his heart. He knew that although the core of darkness had shattered, it did not mean his mission was complete. The Abyss before him remained shrouded in a thick haze, the roots of darkness had not yet completely vanished, and the order of the entire world was still far from restored. Looking around, faint black mist still drifted through the fractured space. The once-silent realm felt as though it were tightly choked by an invisible force, terrifyingly still. Chen Haotian lowered his gaze to check his own body. Although the previous battle had nearly exhausted all his strength, the spiritual qi within him had quietly undergone a subtle transformation at that very instant.
