A bolt of black lightning traveled within the dark air southward. This black bolt emanated a deep, calamitous sensation of endless death causing all to avoid it, including low-rank Yaoguai, like a plague.
This bolt was Yan Zaizen, traveling freely without hindrance. ”Will I be able to locate it in time without spatial shifting?” Asking himself, Yan Zaizen was somewhat doubtful. Despite lightning being unaffected by the Dusk Zone and death laws being amplified, the speed he traveled wasn't enough to cover the southern Dusk Zone, let alone the entire south part of the Twilight Region.
If space was unaffected by the strange rules of the Dusk Zone, he could shorten the time by thousands of times or more, making it overly frustrating. He even contemplated using the Twelve Regalia Spatial Array. However, after some consideration, he didn't do so.
The array was powerful, but it was taxing on the spirit. He didn't want to be in a vulnerable position because of that. Not to mention, even if he did, with the suppressed spatial laws in this zone, it'll be too stressful on the regalias themselves, who knows what might happen.
”If it's not in the Dusk Zone...If I can enter the Dawn Zone, and its there, it'll be easier than a thought to find.” While the Dusk Zone suppresses life, space, and other laws like light, the Dawn Zone was the exact opposite. It promoted those and denounced the ones the Dusk Zone beloved.
As for the Flux Zone...he just hoped it wasn't there.
”Faster.” The black lightning around his body expanded and formed a small storm, even clouds suffused of deathly aura shrouded his body as it sped forward.

In the black skyship with silver skulls on its hull, Yi Seo-Jun and his crew finally arrived at a particular spot. If Yan Zaizen were here, he would be surprised! This was his cultivation cave!
Park Ji-Hu exited the skyship with a group of similarly dressed subordinates. When they saw Yan Zaizen's cultivation cave, all of their eyes flickered with a strange light. This light contained an unfathomable essence of time.
After a short period, they all wore solemn expressions, especially Park Ji-Hu.
”...” Atop the skyship peering over, an ice-cold beauty remained silent, but her eyes revealed a hint of impatience. Every so often, she'd glance over to Yi Seo-Jun, who had a calm expression as if this was an average stop on an average day.
Park Ji-Hu finally returned after a while. His face was dark and even more devilish looking than before. ”It seems Hahm Eun-Jun was correct.” Those words felt like they were hurtful to say, almost to the point where one could feel as if Park Ji-Hu was on the verge of throwing up his insides.
However, he still relayed the information. Shockingly, Hahm Eun-Jun, this beauty, was unconcerned with that tone as if it was normal. Her eyes did hold a tinge of internal pride. If one looked even closer, they would see her chest ger slightly more pronounced as it was puffed out.
”Oh?” Yi Seo-Jun only replied with that.
”The temporal signature in this area has been tampered with deeply. Likely some type of reversion, it's somewhat consistent with a known anomaly. My subordinates are currently settling the temporal disturbance and find evidence of what happened.” As experts of time laws, the Oneuli Empire's men were most suitable to handle this.
Yi Seo-Jun briefly nodded.
A few minutes later, the group of men returned. They donned respectful expressions as they bowed towards Yi Seo-Jun. A single man stepped out, ”the anomaly was human-made, probably in an attempt to hide itself or its tracks. We've tracked its signature. It went south from this location.” After saying this, he withdrew back into the crowd.
Park Ji-Hu proudly nodded. He clearly wanted to showcase his men's ability without him, and it was a success. Even Yi Seo-Jun smiled, ”then, south we go.” He offered some praise as well, causing the men to be content while Park Ji-Hu held a soft, prideful smile throughout.
They immediately set off south, tracking the signaturem while unbeknownst to them that they were tracking someone, who was tracking someone, who was tracking something.
