Above the purple lotus.
Rules manifested, as though living beings were bowing in worship.
Hongjun's expression was calm. Beneath his feet, purple qi stretched for hundreds of millions of miles, gathering into clouds that seemed to cover the entire Great Thousand World.
"It has been a long time since I returned. So this is the Great Thousand World of this era. Compared to the First Era, it still falls far short!"
He was different from the others who had entered the Player World.
He had not entered by possessing a player.
Instead, when the Third Era was destroyed, he had entered the Player World in his true body, then gradually gone into hiding, waiting for an opportunity to enter an era once more.
Only now.
Had Hongjun truly returned.
The myriad Daos bowed in worship.
His divine sense swept outward.
With effortless ease, his divine sense perceived everything within the Great Thousand World.
"The myriad races of this world are feeble. Their strongest are only mid three levels true immortals, and even the number of true immortals has dwindled to such an extent—"
"Still."
"There are two half-step Dao Fruit beings. Hmm, so they are incarnations of the rules of heaven and earth. No wonder."
Although the Primordial World was connected to the Great Thousand World.
Even so.
Hongjun had been unable to learn much about the Great Thousand World from the players.
According to his expectations.
The Great Thousand World should have been teeming with powerful beings.
The Great Thousand World of every era had contained countless experts.
Even if Dao Fruit beings were few, the true immortals below them had always been innumerable. Never had they been so scarce as they were now.
Just as his divine sense expanded and reached the heaven and earth astral wind layer.
