Since half a month ago, ever since the ten suns rose into the sky over Genesis Continent, these ten enormous fireballs have never set again. They have remained firmly suspended in the sky, scorching the earth and mountains until cracks appeared, and the rivers lost their former flow.
Now, one of these ten enormous fireballs is moving! It is moving toward the nearest sun.
The moment the two suns in the sky just touched, a thunderous roar shook the entire continent.
Henry Carter stared blankly up at the sky, witnessing this soul-shaking scene, even forgetting the blinding brilliance of the ten suns. One sun actually devoured another sun right before his eyes!
That's right! One sun ate another sun!
Before Henry Carter could recover from his shock, the sun that had devoured another sun began moving toward the next nearest sun.
What... is it trying to do? Could it be planning to eat another one?
As Henry Carter thought this, the sun in the sky acted just as he guessed, swallowing yet another sun.
The sun that had devoured the second sun continued forward, its target firmly locked on the next sun...
Ten... nine... eight... seven...
Just like the bizarre scene when the ten suns first rose over Genesis Continent, the number of suns in the sky was decreasing one by one, all being eaten by a single sun!
Nine suns! In an instant, all were swallowed by another sun!
The magnificent sight of ten suns in the sky, in the blink of an eye, returned to just one sun!
The scorching weather, too, began to cool as the suns disappeared. The once cloudless sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, blocking out the only remaining sun.
The next moment! The torrential rain that people had longed for finally arrived!
Henry Carter stared blankly at the sky as rain washed over his face. On the parched ground, the withered yellow grass and plants that had long since died sprang to vibrant green life the instant they touched the rain.
The plants that had been scorched and bent by the blazing sun began to lift their heads under the nourishment of the rain, bursting with new vitality.
In the courtyard, in the fertile field where the family had tried to improve their rice crop, the rice that had already withered and died from the sun’s heat not only regained its vibrant green color under the soaking rain—
Right before Henry Carter's eyes, it began to sprout! To seed! To ripen!
In just a few breaths, the rice went from death to revival, and then to full maturity!
Is this a miracle? Henry Carter shivered, suddenly sensing that the rain was filled with an abundance of heaven and earth energy! The energy of heaven and earth, which had been wilted by the sun, was now—at this moment—far, far denser than ever before.
“This is... how can the energy of heaven and earth be so abundant?”
In the underground shelter, the elders of the The Carter Family gathered together, staring blankly at the tremendous changes outside. At last, they exchanged glances, secretly astonished in their hearts. With such abundant energy of heaven and earth, could an even greater era for martial artists be arriving? Such rich energy would bring countless benefits to the cultivation of martial artists.
“This isn’t the time to worry about these things. Brother is still waiting for the water from the Pure Cold Spring.”
Henry Carter raised his hand to wipe the rain from his face, hurriedly recovering from his shock, and quickly ran back to the shelter, raising his hand to knock on the thick stone door.
“Open the door, it’s me, Henry Carter.”
Henry Carter’s voice passed through the door into the shelter, startling the elders standing near the entrance. How did Henry Carter get out? When did he leave? Didn’t he know that ever since the great catastrophe half a month ago, the entire The Carter Family had moved underground, and no one was allowed to leave the shelter?
“Open the door.”
Standing on the outer edge of the crowd, Edward Carter heard the familiar voice. His already gloomy face became even colder. His gaze passed through the gaps in the crowd, looking at the one who gave the order—the head of the The Carter Family: Frank Carter!
Frank Carter’s build was not tall, just average height, and his appearance was also quite ordinary. Blending into the crowd, he was hard to notice.
Edward Carter had always felt that this seemingly mediocre man was unfit to be the family head. Under his leadership, the The Carter Family had hardly developed at all, merely maintaining the status quo. If the family had been handed over to the second brother, the former head who had been expelled, Samuel Carter! Perhaps the family would have already dealt with the other two great families of Lanhai, leaving The Carter Family to dominate Lanhai alone.
With a grinding sound, the stone door slowly opened. The people inside the shelter squinted their eyes; even though the sun outside was blocked by clouds, the light was still far brighter than inside, making it hard to adjust at first.
Henry Carter entered the stone door with his water bag on his back. Seeing so many elders gathered and staring at him, his face immediately tensed up. Ever since the great catastrophe, the family had set strict rules—even as the second son of the family head, he could not break them, as it could bring unknown danger to the family. But seeing his brother in such pain...
