Once the master of a space departed, it would automatically collapse after lasting for a period of time. A space created by a Dao Integration True Lord, however, could endure for hundreds of thousands of years.
A space left behind by a Heavenly Lord could endure for ten million years.
A Spatial Ring, on the other hand, could last forever. Its internal space could never collapse, because it was made using the exceedingly precious material known as spatial ore.

No one knew how many years separated the beginning of an era from its decline. From the decline of the Ancient Age until now, it had already been at least hundreds of millions of years.
