Above the high sky, a pitch-black sphere blocked the midday sun’s radiance, shrouding the entire Ancient Cyan Sea in a darkness akin to the Ghost Realm.
The darkening of the skies was tolerable, but what was deadly was that this environnt was deliberately crafted to exert imnse suppression on the four True Spirit Races while greatly boosting the demons from the Demon Realm!
In the blink of an eye, the Demon Venerables who had just been pumled by the True Spirits made a strong coback, launching frenzied attacks on the four True Spirits now reeling in severe discomfort.
The second battlefield, among ordinary cultivators and demons, was encountering a similar scenario, with the balance breaking instantly into a one-sided massacre.
In such perilous circumstances, it could be concluded that if this persisted much longer, the side of the Mieyue Clan would face total defeat or even complete annihilation.
After all, in such an environnt, the escape abilities of the four True Spirit Races were severely weakened.
"Quick! Faster, still faster!"
At that mont, high above the sky, Wang Zhifan felt the burden on his shoulders was extrely heavy. He had to destroy the black sphere and break the impasse in the shortest ti possible, for any delay would be futile.
Thus, he activated the Wind and Thunder Heaven-Treading Skill at maximum intensity, rocketing vertically like a missile towards the pinnacle of the sky where the black sphere hovered, rushing towards what was likely an artifact of the Demon Lords.
His extrely conspicuous intention naturally attracted the attention of the Demon Venerables below, about seven or eight of whom imdiately ceased their assault on the True Spirits around them, and almost simultaneously launched into the air from the sea surface, aggressively pursuing him.
The reason these Demon Venerables pursued him wasn’t on a whim—they were adept in speed and teamwork, having assigned themselves the task of intercepting the enemy before the battle began.
However, they realized that the more they pursued Wang Zhifan, the further he seed from them, their speeds not even in the sa league.
This was due to Wang Zhifan’s strategic maneuvers. He was simultaneously using the ice source power to slow down several pursuing Demon Venerables below while drawing the Thunder Dragon Fury with his left hand, activating its "Thunder Flash" skill, along with the Warrior class skill "Sprint."
Both skills provided him with short-term explosive speed, especially Thunder Dragon Fury’s Thunder Flash, which offered a 200% speed boost for 60 seconds, enough to elude the Demon Venerables below within a single breath.
"Why haven’t I reached it yet? How high is this black sphere positioned!"
Nevertheless, Wang Zhifan noticed an anomaly—no matter how overwhelmingly fast he accelerated, the black sphere seed fixed at an infinitely distant high point, with no apparent sense of approaching it.
"Could it actually be overlapping with the sun?"
For a mont, Wang Zhifan harbored this dread, frowning tightly.
For if that were true, it would indeed be troubleso.
From his understanding of this world, the sun of this realm existed in a faraway outer heaven, countless tis more distant than the Nine Heavens, a place even the pinnacle cultivators found hard to reach.
"Impossible... If the Demon Realm possessed such power, the Calamity Realm would have long perished. It’s surely only at a relatively distant high altitude!"
Thinking through, Wang Zhifan quickly dismissed this notion.
The current tactics of the demons were clearly aid at the four True Spirit Races, and it wouldn’t make sense to wield an extraordinarily high-level Supre Skill of Heaven and Earth just to deal with these dozens of super-innate True Spirits.
It’s worth noting that the Demon Lords were currently at the world formation arrays clashing passionately with the Saints, leaving them no attention for this place; without a Demon Lord-level presence, powerful magical artifacts couldn’t perform heaven-defying feats.
"Could it be so sophisticated Blinding Skill? Or a Space Law restriction technique?"
After rapid and thorough consideration, Wang Zhifan ford so hypotheses and began verifying them without hesitation.
He first retrieved a white plastic dicine bottle from his personal space, uncapped it, and swallowed a pure white tablet.
This item, known as a "Battle Tablet," was a reward from clearing a Paradise City instance in the past, classified as a rare-grade item, but very suited for the current situation.
[Battle Tablet (Rare)]

From its item description, the Battle Tablet offered comprehensive short-term amplifications, particularly its overbearing effect of boosting sensory perception by 50%, significantly aiding Wang Zhifan in overcoming the current predicant.
After consuming the tablet, Wang Zhifan swiftly perceived a notable physical response.
The surrounding world seed to decelerate slightly; previously inaudible sounds and unnoticed movents erged from all directions, imnsely enhancing his information intake from the surroundings. The once desolate high sky quickly buzzed with activity.
Under this significantly heightened perception, when he observed the black sphere high above, things he hadn’t noticed before ca into view.
