Half a year had passed.
Of the hundred and seventy-six True Domains in Northcloud Prefecture, Qin Shujian had cleared out every evil fiend in a hundred and fifty-three.
Among the remaining True Domains,
only twenty-three were left.

Only after Qin Shujian killed the Moon-Swallowing Demon King in Falling Moon Prefecture did other cultivators realize that someone who had condensed the four cosmic heavenly locks could rival even a mighty expert within a True Domain.
Some also speculated
that condensing the four
