Xuandu Daoist's expression turned subtle.
Looking up, he saw layer upon layer of ripples spreading from every direction, arising in every minute corner and expanding toward the endlessly distant limits of the world.
This heaven and earth had originally been formed from the River of Time and Space. Once space-time stirred, the entire world trembled, yet no one could see where the tremors had originated.
Nor could anyone see where those ripples ultimately dissipated.

Xuandu understood clearly that although he had forced those two back with the Tai Chi Diagram, it was fundamentally because they had never intended to remain.
They believed that no one could trace the source of their methods.
Unless his master cast his gaze down and examined every living being within the range of the calamity, even every blade of grass and tree.
But his master practiced non-action and would certainly not do such a thing.

Nor did he fear the Old Lord
