The war was brutal. The swarm had made many breaches in the south and east sides of the Southern Continent.
The Great One monitored the situation as he hid in the north. He found a weakened area to breach the barrier without alerting the enemy. The swarm had far less success in the north so the majority of their enemy forces were not there.
He sneered as he slipped through. His crew was already dead. He was no longer their leader but they were still food to him. They might have regained their alternate memories but he still knew all the ways to kill them.
He was far short of his needs. In fact, even if he was the last being standing in the war, he could not ascend! His original self had cut off that path just as much as Lind Frey had! His anger was all used to fuel his revenge.
He abandoned his artifact craft and consumed the energy from it as well. No traces of Fiend Qi were left behind.
