The information about the Sea Calming Seal completely disappeared from Zhong Heng’s mind.
Looking at it again, Zhong Heng still had no clue, watching the Sea Calming Seal was like looking at a Celestial Book.
At the same time, as the complete state of the Sea Calming Seal dissipated, the immortals also found it difficult to locate Zhong Heng.
Their gazes were set more upon that Light of Reception.
A long time ago, around Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm, there was a good circle of Lower Realms, where cultivators often ascended to Jiuzhou after passing Thunder Tribulations.
These ascended cultivators were viewed as excellent cultivation seedlings by the major sects of Jiuzhou.
But with the great change twenty thousand years ago, many Lower Realms shattered and integrated into Jiuzhou.
Fragments of worlds further influenced the original myriad Lower Realms.
Thus, Jiuzhou has not emitted a Light of Reception for over twenty thousand years.
This leads many to speculate whether the Heavenly Dao would continue to create Lower Realms in the future.
The Lower Realms serve as a means for Jiuzhou to enhance itself.
It’s akin to the feudal system in Zhong Heng’s distant past life.
The Void around Jiuzhou is dispensable, yet drawn by Jiuzhou, the void energy in these places is not weak.
Normal circumstances prevent creatures from absorbing void energy.
These Lower Realms are numerous worlds ’enfeoffed’ by Jiuzhou as an Upper Realm.
In a sense, these Lower Realms are opening territories for Jiuzhou.
It is said that in the ancient times of Jiuzhou, there were no shortages of high-quality Lower Realms like Small Thousand Worlds and Middle Thousand Worlds around it.
However, for unknown reasons, the Small Thousand Worlds and Middle Thousand Worlds disappeared.
Still, the power of Grotto Heaven Worlds was strong, but even ordinary Lower Realms vanished after the great change twenty thousand years ago.
This situation reflects the current state of Jiuzhou.
Seeking stability, with no intention of expansion.
Or perhaps, Jiuzhou is still healing from injuries of the last great change.
Thus, the Light of Reception attracts the attention of the immortals.
"Emperor Yu’s method, huh..."
Some immortals even sensed a familiar aura within, their eyes harbored reverence or longing.
Only a few immortals familiar with Zhong Heng recognized his identity.
The Five Elements True Immortal opened his eyes, gazing across countless spaces, looking at Zhong Heng.
"Making nice progress on the Path of the Five Elements."
In the Star River Grotto Heaven, the cold female Sword Immortal opened her eyes, gazing through the endless space, her eyes held a slight softness when looking at Zhong Heng.
Then she looked in another direction.
In a world of blood seas, with blood sea waves surging, the Void Whale Immortal also sensed the aura of Zhong Heng.
"Boy..." the face of the Void Whale held some gloom.
Zhong Heng’s actions back then angered the Void Whale. Although an immortal, he was not a magnanimous elder. When facing such an ant provoking him, in his era or now, the Void Whale would choose to crush the foe, root and branch, to prevent the opposite from coming back for revenge in ten thousand years saying ’the East flourishes for thirty years, the West for thirty years’.
But alas...
He seemed to notice a gaze from somewhere else.
"Hmph," he could only give a cold snort.
"How did Kong Xuan return? This seat learned the same Secret Technique as him and also left behind maneuvers, yet the outcomes are vastly different..." A slight sigh came from above the blood sea after a long while.
In the Bright Square Grotto Heaven, Zhong Heng naturally was unaware of the commotion attracted by the Light of Reception.
A grand ceremony was happening in the Bright Square Grotto Heaven.
The enemy of the Ten Thousand Realms Alliance for millennia was destroyed, and naturally, the Ten Thousand Realms Alliance was celebrating with champagne.
Though they lost quite a few main forces this time, Master Purple Cloud and others also brought back many resources from the Luoshu World after the war.
And they completely annihilated their foes.
The joy of the entire Ten Thousand Realms Alliance overshadowed some sadness.
Zhong Heng was naturally seated in the highest position.
His fame spread throughout the Ten Thousand Realms Alliance.
Numerous cultivators wanted to witness the demeanor of this legend who suppressed the Dual Saints single-handedly and shattered a world with one seal.
Zhong Heng sat cross-legged in the cultivation treasure land with the densest Spiritual Qi in the Bright Square Grotto Heaven.
Absorbing Spiritual Qi and nurturing his spirit body while inventorying his gains.
The most evident were his cultivation level and realm.
Through this battle, Zhong Heng had walked a long path in the early stage of Divinity Transformation.
He initiated into the Hongmeng Divine Origin Refining Realm Skill, Taihe Five Elements Profound Gang Secret Technique reached minor success.
Each realm in the Divinity Transformation Three Realms took at least a thousand years to cultivate.
Many cultivators exhausted their immortal fates reaching Divinity Transformation, only to be stuck in the early stage for ten thousand years.
Zhong Heng broke through Divinity Transformation for just a thousand years, his cultivation was about to approach the mid-stage Divinity Transformation.
Moreover, he experienced the immortal-level power through the Sea Calming Seal, gaining rapid insights in his realm.
Then there was array cultivation, Zhong Heng could now set up Tier Ten Arrays, using Immortal Artifacts as the array core to completely suppress ordinary Divinity Transformation cultivators.
In addition, Zhong Heng acquired three Cosmic Star Pearls.
Seventy-two Cosmic Star Pearls could barely compare with the River Map and Luo Book.
Individually, they surpassed ordinary Immortal Artifacts.
And the Cosmic Star Pearl was very compatible with Zhong Heng, working well with the Hongmeng Divine Origin Refining Realm Skill, and serving as a versatile array core.
Now, Zhong Heng did not lack for artifacts, possessing five Immortal Artifact level treasures, with various offensive, defensive, and protective means, the Five Elements Divine Light and arrays equipped for both offense and defense.
Currently, Zhong Heng is on par with some senior Divinity Transformation cultivators.
Zhong Heng’s greatest gain is the re-unlocking of the River Map’s permissions.
Now Zhong Heng’s River Map talent has
