The people elevated their Escape Light a bit higher, hovering hundreds of feet above the ground, waiting for the massive entrance ahead — like a bottomless abyss — to greet the eruption of the 'Black Tide.'
The intense upheaval did not last long, ceasing in less than half an hour.
Then suddenly:
"Boom!!"
In the deadly silence, a sky-piercing black pillar erupted with a crash!
A massive black smoke, as thick as tens of thousands of feet, gushed out. From a distance, it seemed like a 'Celestial Pillar' supporting the sky and anchoring the land, truly awe-inspiring.
Such a magnificent black pillar could be seen clearly even from hundreds or thousands of miles away.
Upon closer observation:
This column of black smoke was composed of countless tiny black fumes, interspersed with shades of light gray, dark green, deep red, and more, ultimately forming a pitch-black hue.
