[Responding King].
Lu Yang paced with his hands behind his back, studying this secret realm he had not visited in a long time with great interest. Looking at it now, he only felt that the place had been utterly renewed.
Was it because I had refined my Primordial Spirit?
Once the Primordial Spirit was achieved and the Golden Core perfected, one would be rejected by the [Heavenly Remnant Consciousness] and could no longer enter it. Not even Chu Sheng could escape this restriction.
Yet accordingly, when he observed the [Heavenly Remnant Consciousness] again through the eyes of his Primordial Spirit, he saw an entirely different scene from before. In a daze, he seemed to see a shattered staircase—and a Footprint standing upon it, reducing every step to fragments.
"It was the World Honored One's Footprint."
He remembered that after the World Honored One attained enlightenment, a single enormous foot had stomped the once-unified [Heavenly Remnant Consciousness] into scattered pieces, each occupying its own domain thereafter.
There was clearly something wrong with that.
Even a Dao Lord could not damage the [Heavenly Remnant Consciousness] from the outside. At most, they could make minor adjustments within it.
Let alone the World Honored One.
The World Honored One could shatter the originally complete [Heavenly Remnant Consciousness] not because he himself was so powerful, but because the [Heavenly Remnant Consciousness] was meant to be broken from the start. Some external force had pieced the seven fragments together, and what the World Honored One crushed was actually that external force!
Then came the question.
