’Damn, it’s all or nothing now,’ Bruno spat, breaking his thoughts. There was no more time for reflection; it was time to act. Either they did something now or they’d lose their chance forever.
As the golden power covered everything, the runes of the Holy Light Law pulsed with growing intensity. Something very strange was happening, and these laws seemed much more powerful.
"Coltia, use all the power you have. With a beam of light, transport us to that Phantom Calamity," Alm ordered with relentless coldness.
Coltia and everyone else heard the order, and their hearts froze. Transport everyone to that terrifying entity in the sky?
Coltia, experienced and aware of the gravity of the situation, didn’t hesitate. Immediately, her runes began to pulse with full force. A white light enveloped everyone around, forming a brilliant pillar.
Alm and Bruno clearly felt the auras of the heroes approaching; they would cross the channel in five seconds. Their fists clenched with tension. Then, with a powerful jolt, the whole group shot into the sky at an impressive speed.
The power to even penetrate spatial gaps of this law was already powerful before; now, in the presence of that Calamity, it seemed terrifying and easy to use.
It took two seconds for everyone to be a few meters from that colossal entity. The whale snorted, and then its eyes lit up, casting an intense glow that seemed to cut through the surrounding gold.
All of their divine soul power was burned without mercy, as if every fiber of their existence was being consumed. Laws and Qi didn’t work, but their souls were above anything. The whale’s tattoos pulsed violently with the burning of this energy, glowing with a spectral light.
A connection formed between everyone in the group and the whale; through the array, they felt something within them moving toward the supreme entity. The whale roared with a chilling and overwhelming aura that made the air around tremble. Taiji, the Supreme and Extreme state, was activated.
They were getting closer rapidly.
At that moment, the Calamity, a colossal presence the size of a sun, turned toward the pillar of light. Everyone gulped, feeling insignificant before that titanic creature. Their hearts hammered in their chests, and fear paralyzed them.
It was above even the celestial laws; instinctively, everyone felt a primitive fear. But the whale gestured, and with its movement, the entire world seemed to turn.
A sacred and extreme power exploded around, making the space vibrate. Everyone felt their bodies warming up, then turned to that immense figure radiating an overwhelming power. Their fists clenched until the knuckles turned white; why were they so afraid?
Alm and Bruno were sweating cold, feeling a heroic sense approaching like a tidal wave. They had two seconds. Then, the colossus facing the whale let out a low, deep, and threatening growl.
It was as if they were being tested by a force beyond comprehension. At the same time, everyone clearly realized that the creature was not alive. It was like an illusion, but an illusion with real weight and presence. It wasn’t real, but they couldn’t say it didn’t exist. It was confusing and strange.
All the creature’s heads displayed mocking smiles, a grotesque and sinister sight. At that moment, its gigantic wings flapped.
THUNDER!

Time and space collapsed, distorting and writhing as if reality itself were being torn apart. If before this Calamity had flapped its wings randomly and nearly killed them, now it did so with intention, and the movement was a thousand times more powerful.
"Coltia, ADVANCE!"
The whale roared, its voice reverberating like thunder, as that heroic sense was swept away by the Calamity’s movement.
The heroes about to cross the channel suddenly stopped, feeling an extreme and suffocating danger.
A wave of destructive power spread in all directions, a power capable of destroying worlds, far beyond anything divine cultivators could achieve. The wave advanced slowly toward them, like the shadow of death.
But Coltia and the entire group just narrowed their eyes, determination firm in their gazes. The whale ordered them to advance, and they would follow him to hell without hesitation.
The pillar of light narrowed and pierced ahead even faster, like a divine spear. The apocalyptic wave approached, the space writhing with the intensity of the destructive energy, until...
Crack!
A crack appeared in space when the pillar of light touched it. They penetrated, as if crossing a glass barrier. Everyone held their breath; they had made it.
Then, another low growl echoed, and everyone faced the Calamity before them. The creature seemed to snort, and then, with a ghostly movement, turned its body...
Then, everyone’s eyes widened. It just disappeared, as if it were really a ghost.
Suddenly, all the ripples around distorted and vanished. Everything disappeared, as if they had awakened from a strange and illusory nightmare.
The light enveloping them went out, and then everything around began to become clearer. It was like emerging rapidly from the dark depths of the sea to the surface, where reality awaited them.
As they stabilized, the whale and the entire group quickly looked around. Everyone sighed in doubt; they were no longer in that solar system. They were in the middle of empty space, and a distant sun could be felt, but it was clearly not the same as before. They were in a completely different place.
’Did we get taken to another place? Did it help us, or was it a coincidence?’
Alm and Bruno spoke at the same time. They felt the laws around them. They were in the queen’s universe, but they no longer felt those intense and subtle demonic fluctuations coming from the galaxy’s core.
’We were taken to another galaxy by that Calamity. If it really had any intention, it’s hard to know. Maybe it’s just a reflection of the past, but its power helped us,’ Alm concluded dryly.
Bruno snorted heavily. ’Everything was going too well, we almost got completely screwed. And it was totally unpredictable, as always.’
Everyone in the group felt the Qi and the Laws circulating again in their bodies, as if a mountain’s weight had been lifted from their backs.
"Are we in another galaxy?" Kaiyka was the first to notice, surprised.
Alm and Bruno adjusted the two women on their backs. Strangely, both were just sleeping like babies, not caring about anything, and showed no sign of wanting to wake up.
"Yes, let’s go. Since we’re here, it might be fate," the whale said lightly, and everyone nodded. It was madness from start to finish, and as expected, the round figure solved everything.
Their fate was clear, there was only one nearby point to go. Alm and Bruno were already moving, convinced that Heaven’s Will was plotting something sinister again.
