Xu Qing had an epiphany. He understood that the pitch-black tentacles were an invasion from an enemy, meant to corrupt the eleven fundamental Rules of the Profound Yellow Realm. The moment these eleven fundamental Rules were completely corroded and collapsed would be the moment the Profound Yellow Realm was destroyed.
Xu Qing opened his eyes, having withdrawn from that special state. He took a deep breath. 'I can't believe the pillars of the Profound Yellow Realm's eleven fundamental Rules have already started to corrode. Thankfully, while the Pillar of Gold's Rule has been eroded, the damage isn't even a drop in the bucket compared to the entire pillar. Of course, I still have to take this seriously.'
However, Xu Qing's strength was still insufficient. He had only just stepped into the Soul Transcendence Realm and was in no way qualified to participate in a struggle of this magnitude.
