The Darkness God's overwhelmingly domineering and ferocious aura left the nearby powerhouses of the Wizard Civilization and the Immortal Domain deeply shaken.
Saine himself had also been profoundly affected during the earlier sealing experiment.
After all, Saine was the Overlord who had stood directly before the Darkness God with the Sealing Divine Ring in hand, bearing more of his pressure than anyone else.
For Saine, the process of sealing the Darkness God had, in fact, been a form of cultivation.
Facing the pressure of a Level-9 Being head-on had elevated Saine's understanding of power and the life realm to another level.
Moreover, the Darkness God before him was completely different in both aura and strength from Gray Mist Level-9, whom Saine had encountered in the Time-Space Crack.
Although Gray Mist Level-9 had reached Level-9 much earlier and had hidden in the Time-Space Crack for countless tens of thousands of years, Saine would have judged that Gray Mist Level-9 was no match for the Darkness God.
"Did we finally succeed?" Once the sealing was complete, Saine flew out of the center of the formation, somewhat drained. Zi You flew forward at just the right moment to catch him.
What Saine had depleted was chiefly his mental energy, rather than his physical strength.
This sealing experiment had also given Saine much to reflect on. Once he returned to the Wizard World, he would need to carefully review it all and draw his conclusions.
Saine's weakened state, along with the other True Spirit Magicians of the Wizard Civilization looking as though they had just fought a great battle, prompted the Evil Tide Civilization to bring out quite a few more valuable items to reward them.
The Evil Tide Civilization was quite considerate. During this time, it made no moves that might invite misunderstanding.
