~Intermission~ Fateless and Fearless.

Eternal Lands.

To the north, there was the Divine Continent. Deep within this continent was the Sacred-Emperor's Domain.

Cloudcrest's Palace stood proudly at the far end of the Sacred-Emperor's Domain.

This stunning palace was made from divine crystal and glowed with holy light. The hall was grand, but it was also very quiet. Huge statues of ancient gods lined the walls, always watching over the throne room.

"Hm?" said Emperor Cloudcrest who sat comfortably on his golden throne.

A wave of dark energy rippled through the air, announcing the arrival of Emperor Heavenmind.

The cultivator emerged almost like a shadow, moving with a grace that didn't match his fearsome reputation. His dark blue and black robes flowed around him as if they were alive, and his white mask stood out against the luxurious chamber.

Cloudcrest narrowed his eyes as he watched Heavenmind's relaxed but authoritative demeanor.
