Boom — the Dawn Ark's fluctuation came again, this time bursting outward, flinging the two of them away, crushing them until they seemed to have become round balls.
Just then Shen Mu saw a sword light cleave the sandstorm open. Imperial Preceptor Jingping walked onto the Dawn Ark amid the dreadful fluctuations, and his sword light split open the skull of the Old Mother of True Heaven at the center of the four pillars — yet the Old Mother of True Heaven wore a cruel smile, for the huge black sun was rolling down upon Imperial Preceptor Jingping from behind.
That black sun crushed nearly everything on the Dawn Ark and rolled off its rear, flying out, dragging the enormous Dawn Ark tumbling backward, heaving it up, rolling it, until at long last it settled.
Shen Mu was flung away by the terrifying storm.
The storm surged madly, sweeping up and devouring more of the Flaming Desert; even Long Qilin was caught up in it, struggled feebly a few times, then resigned himself to fate and lay still, letting the storm blow him away.
