Turbulence Unceasing, the Lost Portal

"What exactly were they looking for?"

Some cultivators who had only recently emerged from seclusion were at a loss.

Someone immediately answered them.

"What else could it be? Nothing more than that Supreme Treasure."

"But this is far too strange. They were searching for a Supreme Treasure, yet right under the noses of so many Heavenly Prodigies, that Son of the Human Emperor actually escaped."

"Hehe, you underestimate what it means to be a Son of the Human Emperor. Since ancient times, the Humanity Fate Allotment upon a Son of the Human Emperor has been far more exaggerated than that of ordinary Heavenly Prodigies. Normal Heavenly Prodigies possess providence that lets them Turn Calamity into Fortune in the unseen. A Son of the Human Emperor would only be more outrageous than them."

"But I'm also curious. How exactly did he escape?"

"Exactly. And how did they suddenly end up in Dharma Combat?"

"What else could it be? That place had too many tangled fortunes. It wasn't just our Immortal Path Heaven's Heavenly Prodigies who showed up. Even the Demon Domain, which had been quiet for a long time, sent forth a Primordial Era powerhouse who crossed Northern Heaven Continent to get there. Not only that, the Demonic Path, which everyone thought had gone low-profile, also appeared there openly."

"Eh, those old thieves of the Demonic Path showed up too? Aren't they afraid someone will slay demons and eliminate devils?"

"Dao Companion, you must be joking. In times like these, Variable Fates are growing ever more numerous. Every family sweeps the snow before its own gate. Things are no longer as they were in the Primordial Era."

An old cultivator spoke to himself.

And the scene within this tavern was not playing out in just one place.
