Several days later.
Inside Tiandao Palace's main hall.
Tian Yunzi, his hair and beard both white, fixed his imposing gaze on the Grand Elder.
"Grand Elder, has the sudden collapse of the Realm of Great Void been thoroughly investigated?"
The Grand Elder rose respectfully and said, "Judging from the investigation so far, the collapse of the Realm of Great Void was more likely caused by the disappearance of its spatial origin.
After questioning numerous cultivators who had been inside at the time, everyone said that before the Realm of Great Void collapsed, its spatial spiritual energy had been continuously and drastically declining.
Most likely, something had gone wrong with the spatial origin of the Realm of Great Void. Once it drained away completely, the entire Realm of Great Void was destroyed."
Tian Yunzi remained expressionless as he listened to the Grand Elder's explanation.
His voice followed at once as he continued asking, "Then does the Grand Elder believe that other cultivators were behind this in secret, seeking to target Tiandao Palace from top to bottom?"
The Grand Elder hesitated briefly, then slowly shook his head. "That possibility cannot be said to be entirely absent, but I fear it is very slight."
"Why do you say that?" Tian Yunzi asked.
"The Realm of Great Void was a small world space, and its area was limited.
Before it collapsed, quite a few cultivators had entered it to cultivate.
Every place visible within the Realm of Great Void should have been occupied by cultivators.
If there had truly been any unusual activity, it would have been impossible for everyone else to notice nothing at all.
Yet judging by the subsequent investigation, everyone had indeed been completely unaware of the changes within."
The Grand Elder spoke in quick succession, continuing his explanation.
