"Naturalist!"
"It's the Naturalist!"
"A Naturalist has appeared in Beixuan Jizhou!"
Even the Lingxiao Realms of other continents used all sorts of secret arts to watch the upheaval on this land from afar. Though the Dao fluctuations from the Haotian Mirror and the Three Lives Mirror locked in opposition kept them from seeing clearly, everyone could unmistakably feel that sense of closeness, of being "favored by Heaven and Earth"!

Everything made sense now. An Jing's so-called "first Divine Fate of Huaixu" was a complete lie. They had the first Divine Fate of Huaixu in their grasp, but its strength was nowhere near An Jing's.
At first, even the Shangxuan Sect's Divine Fate had been confused.

It wasn't their fault—the other one was Heavenly Fate!
For Heavenly Fate, location didn't matter. Even if they were born in the Undersea Ruins, devoid of resources and left behind by the ancient war between the Dao and Demons, they could still twist cause and effect, activate an extermination weapon left behind by the Ancient Dao Court in its battle against the Great Heavenly Demon Lord, shatter the ruins' stagnant state, and restart creation from nothing to form a Spirit Land. They could even destroy the Return to Ruins Ocean Royal Court, which had planned to use the ruins to devour the sea veins of the Ten Continents!
