"How do I do this?" Chen Tong muttered to himself. He's technically dead, and taking action while in Limbo will cost him more than using other means. As such, he wanted to use other means to help or intervene.

"Oh, I know," he said before raising his hand to condense a blue crystal. "This is a purified Void Heart from a Tier 11 Void Beast."

"Such a thing exists?" Wang Ju asked instinctively.

"Not in the lower dimension, but higher-level Void Beasts exist," Chen Tong calmly explained. "Back to the topic: fuse this heart with your World Tree, and it should be more than enough to seal and teleport the Abyss Gap."

"Thank you very much," Wang Ju swiftly said, bowing deeply once the crystal was in her palm. She now had hope with this thing; nothing was more important than that.

"One more thing," Chen Tong added before she left. "You should be aware that you're in terrible shape and won't survive long?"

"I am," she replied calmly.

"Since I'm already being nice, why don't I go all out? I don't mind healing your injuries."

"And what do you want in exchange?"

"You said your master loves you enough to fight Grand Dao itself? All I want is a promise from you that our debt is cleared from now on."

"I'm sorry."

"Are you still worried about him paying for your actions? You should understand that if he wishes to save you in your current state, he will have to pay a steep price, and even then, there is a chance he will fail. Are you really prepared to separate from him?"

"No, that's not it."

Chen Tong frowned, thinking she was just being stubborn. However, he saw the clarity in her eyes, and something dawned on him. "I see. I'll help you one last time, but you owe me a small favor, and I mean you - not your master."

Wang Ju opened her eyes, sensing the blue crystal in her cracked Sea of Consciousness. She no longer hesitated, summoned the World Tree holding the Heavenly Court, and fused the crystal. The towering grew in size until it was as big as the best Heaven Will Worlds before stopping, and Wang Ju used all its power to seal the Abyss Gap.

The creature in the Abyss did not like this new change and roared even louder. It tried something for him, but this time around, it was useless, and not just because of the tree's power. Wang Ju predicted he would not so easily accept defeat, so she summoned the Qi Luck of the entire Heavenly Emperor Era to complete the final seal.

Once the gate closed, Wang Ju did not waste time and used one of the branches of this new World Tree to open a channel directly to Samsara, sending it to the afterlife. She ensured it was another branch not connected to Li Jun.

"Damn it," she heard a voice roaring, followed by a deep and scary gaze. The gaze felt even scarier than Chen Tong, but Wang Ju was prepared for this. However, to her surprise, the gaze slowly faded. She was confused, thinking maybe Li Jun did anything. But after checking, he was only observing the situation from his throne.

Wang Ju's body suddenly trembled, followed by her complexion became paler than paper, and her aura drastically decreased. She almost failed from the void - that's how weak she was.

"Are you alright?" Someone appeared next to her, holding her body.

"Sect Madam? I'm fine."

"Here, take these pills."

"It's alright."

"You need to hold on until Wei'er returns so he can heal you," Yu Yan persuaded.

"I'm fine, really," she said but still took the pills to reassure her. Yu Yan looked at her before glancing at the situation. She sighed: "I never expected things to become so out of control."

"Indeed."

Void Battlefield:

Wang Wei was in a precarious situation. He managed to contain the explosion from the Nether Monarch Sword with strength from his future self. He condensed and dealt with all the dead and Yin Qi to prevent them from turning the lower dimension into a ghost world. He even went as far as dealing with the situation as swiftly as possible by suppressing his desire to preserve the sword; his instinct warned him of the possibility of worsening the situation.

However, right as he was about to succeed, the contamination contained in the explosion started to act. It formed into this weird phantom-like creature with no legs, humanoid shape, no arms, and tentacles coming from its chest.

'Been waiting for you,' Wang Wei thought as he condensed his Willpower into a potent blade and slashed the creature. His current strength meant he now had less limitation to use the full extent of his willpower. So, the creature had no chance of resisting and evaporating from the world, or so he thought. Wang Wei watched in surprise as the creature rapidly reformed before rushing to him.

'An Immortal creature?' He immediately tried to seal it, but this creature soon proved extremely proficient in dealing with Sealing Dao. Unless his wife was here, there was no way to seal this creature as fast as he wished to.

'The next step would be to deal with him how I killed Yi Lianxiang,' he thought as he found the creature's connection to his master. However, he did not find the connection, no matter how much he pushed his Karma Dao.

'This thing was created purposely to deal with me,' he immediately concluded. The Abyss Gap must have been preparing for this escape for a while, and that thing even took him into account to ensure success. 'If that's the case, the creature's purpose is to buy time. So, how do you break this game? Huh? Wang Ju?'

Wang Wei sensed something and was forced to redirect his focus. He opened his mouth to spit a drop of bright red blood that condensed into a talisman. He attached a piece of Spiritual Particle to hit before sending it away. However, his slight distraction almost made him lose control of all the explosion energy he was still containing.

'If I want to deal with this creature as fast as possible, I need to use a tactic I've never used before.' He immediately condensed a clone that opened countless breaches from the Source Qi Space. Then, with his [Force Control Skill], he controlled these Qi like he was a veteran Insurgent Immortal Sovereign, placing layers upon layers of Qi Seals around the creature.

As expected, this tactic worked. The Abyss Gap's owner might have developed its ability to deal with seals after spending so much time in the Abyss and passing that knowledge to this creature, but it was obvious that he was not as competent when it came to dealing with Energy Seals. Additionally, Wang Wei's main body did not stop destroying this creature with his Willpower to prevent it from analyzing the seal.

"Done," Wang Wei said as the last Qi Seals completely rendered the creature useless. However, his danger senses suddenly went overdrive, so he instinctively gathered all his powers into the explosion before sending the thing into the Source Qi Space. However, the danger did not stop since it originated from the sealed creature. A symbol ignored all his seals and rushed toward him.

'Another fucking mark? Do you want me to become the vessel for your master?' Wang Wei thought with an ugly expression. "Why the fuck do these Outer Worlders like marking people so much?" He clapped his hand, and the River of Time manifested behind him briefly before turning into a mote of light that entered his hands. Wang Wei raised his right hand, which now contained a symbol of its own. The symbol rushed toward the upcoming attack, overwhelming it in an instant. After all, this [Mark of Fate] was condensed from the power of the River of Fate itself.

"I just had an idea: Wouldn't fate be interested in turning an Outer God's servant or creature into its puppet?" He muttered with a sneer. "Since you people like to mark people so much, let's see how much you like it being done to you?"

He controlled the mark to enter the sealed creature's body and heard it roar in defiance. However, it was pointless as this was a great opportunity. The River of Fate does not like uncontrollable things, and these foreign creatures were one of those things outside its parameters. But now, with this mark, it had a chance to analyze these invaders better and maybe take a closer step at dealing with their masters.

As such, no matter what this creature did, it was pointless as the mark embedded in its very existence rapidly corroded it on a fundamental level. Wang Wei watched this with bated breath, and right as the thing was about to succeed, another power began to resist. Sadly, the creature suddenly disappeared and he could not tell the final outcome between fate and Cthulu.
