The One That Got Away

The Lord of Tongtian saw through the Heavenly Dao and discovered it was actually an invisible web. The Great Calamity of Investiture of the Gods was nothing more than a purge within that web. Leading the Jie Sect in defiance, he wielded the Four Swords of Zhu Xian as blades and struck straight at the root of the primordial world's illusion. This path would either tear open the firmament and reveal the true world, or plunge him forever into the abyss to become ashes of calamity. A cold flame, mingling absurdity, fury, and the sting of betrayal, blazed in the chest of the Sage Tongtian. He, the Lord of Tongtian, an undying Primordial Chaos Sage, was actually just a... "Heh..." A low, cold sneer, like metal scraping against metal, escaped his throat. High above Biyou Palace, invisible data streams fell into disarray, and the simulated stars flickered strangely several times. If this world was fake, then what did the so-called order of the Heavenly Dao and the so-called destined calamities even matter?
