The wave of reverent voices at the summit of Supreme Mountain lingered for a long time.
Li Yun hung in the Void, calm in his white robes, his gaze turned toward the depths of Supreme Mountain.
There lay the Forbidden Land from which the Through-Ancient Dynasty's three Martial Gods had emerged.
The Bronze Portal, engraved with runes of the Hengwu Domain, still stood at the center of the Forbidden Land, its spiritual glow lingering.
It was the central hub connecting Blue Star to the Through-Ancient Dynasty in the Hengwu Domain.
It was also the dynasty's great creation, built to seize the fortune of Blue Star's people and nourish itself.
He had seen this kind of thing before on Imperial Court Mountain in the Purple Moon Continent. It held no secrets for him now.
At a thought from Li Yun, he lightly pinched his fingers together. His supreme will poured forth and spread straight into the Forbidden Land.
He did not destroy the Portal.
He intended to take complete control of it and put it to his own use.
To ensure nothing went wrong and leave no flaw that might allow the Through-Ancient Dynasty to make a comeback, Li Yun quietly analyzed it through the Gate of Myriad Wonders even as he seized control.

There was no difficulty to speak of.
