The third Shade Stone appeared less than a month after the second one had appeared.
The people in the Source World and the Pear Hill began to worry at this.
There was only one possibility they could think of why the Shade Stones were appearing so frequently: the end of the chaotic era was near.
But this round of chaotic era seemed to find itself in worse situations with every passing hour.
In the past, at the end of a chaotic era, only one primitive land like the Source World existed and only one civilization ruled this primitive land. When the era ended, this ruling civilization would gather the power of the entire civilization to resist it.
This didn't mean that every era had a ruling civilization. It was also possible that there were anywhere between three and five superpowers that could also join hands to fight the coming of the end. In the face of the oncoming destruction of the chaos, all the past hatred between these superpowers was to no avail.
In this chaotic era, not only had there been no ruling civilization, even the various super forces had fallen into a state of disunity.
Even the Pear Hill, which usually attached the greatest importance to the Finale Way, had to worry about their own fate as they hid in Zen's primitive land.
At this point, no one had the time to think about the end of the chaos.
About twenty days later, the fourth Shade Stone appeared, and another grain of sand went missing from the hourglass.
Simultaneously, a bloody cocoon cracked open on the blood red sky of the primitive land, and Zen crawled out of it.
"Is this blood cocoon the last skill to strengthen my physical body?" Zen asked.
"For the time being, it is," the ancestry-level bloodline replied.
"Then it's time to set out to do what I have to," Zen said, his jaw set in determination.
Zen's figure flashed before falling down like a meteor. It wasn't long before he landed on the jadeite platform of the Pear Hill.
The Primeval Lord of Heaven had, during this time, descended onto the jadeite platform several times. He had some news to give Zen, but every time he had come, Zen had been cultivating in seclusion. So he hadn't usually stayed long and left quickly on discovering that Zen wasn't present.
Today, however, the Primeval Lord of Heaven got lucky with the chance to meet Zen, having waited here for a long time.
"The Grandmaster of Heaven has come to the Night View Island three times," the Primeval Lord of Heaven said, going straight to the point.
"What did he come there for?" Zen said, feeling it strange that this had happened.
"The Bird Masters are anxious to let us ascend to the Jade Pure Realm."
The Jade Pure Realm had resumed its usual peaceful state as the war between the Bird Spirit Sect and the Snake Spirit Sect had finally stopped for a period of time. But the Bird Masters were still in a constant state of panic, given that the Snake Spirit Sect was like a ferocious tiger waiting to pounce on them.
Zen thought about this for a while before saying, "Even if we go up to the Jade Pure Realm, we won't immediately attack the Snake Spirit Sect."
His goal had always been to reach the altar on the Jade Pure Realm.
The Primeval Lord of Heaven smiled. "If we bring the Monkey Spirit Sect into the Jade Pure Realm, we can deter the Snake Spirit Sect. This will ease the pressure on the Bird Masters."
Zen looked at the primitive land that had grown bigger and said, "Then it's time for us to go."
At the north of the Supreme Pure Realm...
Thousands of gulls with beaks like those of cranes, were crawling up the sides of the mountains.
These gulls looked comical in their appearance, their big beaks looking like pickaxes. Their bodies weren't too big, but they were notorious among the Other Shore creatures in the Supreme Pure Realm. They were smart, cruel, and great in number. The prey they targeted always ended up facing a miserable death.
They had been here for several days and nights in order to capture the bone worms crossing the border.
And now, they suddenly felt the aura of living beings coming up the sides of the mountains.
The gull in the lead stretched out its head and looked around, only to see people emerging from a cave in the distance.
"Coo, coo..."
"Goo! Goo! Goo!"
The gulls began to discuss this development with each other.
According to what they remembered, human beings were weak and were excellent food, but the number was too small.
