In the end, Di Tou had made it in time and blocked the devastating attack with his own body! Thereby preventing Mu Di Bai's arduous efforts from being wasted.
Of course, seeing as he was also the one who sent out the attack, this self-sacrificial move seemed, in a way… less noble.
In any case, after blocking the attack, Di Tou stared at the lines in the sky, the Realm Fracture that was gaping and opening and tried to peer through it all to see the sun to no avail. And then he fell from the sky like a brick.
In a somewhat fortunate, but also unfortunate manner, his fall was cushioned by the vines, but a few moments after he was once again groped by the vines. But this time, seemingly sensing something strange on Di Tou, the vines quickly recoiled In fear, only leaving a few red dots on his skin where they had tried to pierce through before retreating.
