"Something felt off?"
Chang Sheng Yun frowned. He sensed something strange, but he could not put his finger on what it was. In the end, he could not be bothered to dwell on it.
Meanwhile, in the heavenly realm of this layer of heaven, some powerful Golden Immortals had also noticed that something was amiss.
The flow of time in the heavenly realm had been forcibly brought in line with that of the mortal world.
This was no small matter. The immortals and gods of the heavenly realm grew tense as they tried to find the cause of it all.
However, Chen Mu, the one responsible for all this, had already passed through a portal and arrived beneath the East Sea, in a vast underwater space.
It was the East Sea Dragon Palace.
Legend had it that the Dragon Palace resembled a massive crystal palace. Its walls, floor, and ceiling were all made of glittering, translucent gemstones, and under the sun, the entire palace shone brilliantly.
Yet this place was merely something like a cave. When Chen Mu arrived, he found it rather crude.
This was clearly just the crater of an undersea volcano. It was still vastly different from the legendary "Dragon Palace."
Perhaps it was because of this world. After the dragon race had pacified the Four Seas, the Heavenly Court cast them aside and made them guard the seals beneath the sea. These Dragon Palaces were the so-called seals.
While the Dragon Palaces suppressed demonic beasts, they also served as restraints upon the dragon race.
"Who goes there?"
Chen Mu did not conceal his presence, so he naturally drew the dragon race's attention.
In the dim undersea cavern, countless dragons raised their heads and glared fiercely at Chen Mu. For a moment, they looked quite imposing—frightening, even.
