Metal qi hung in a mist.
The mysteries of Returning to Hidden and Formlessness resonated, concealing Xu Xuan's dharma form. In an instant, he seemed to become a speck of dust, dissolving into the incense offerings golden qi that filled the sky.
"Intercalation..."
Xu Xuan followed the Mystic Canon with his gaze and saw that it rested within a divine shrine, wreathed in thunderbolts and blazing silver light, precisely at the heart of this grand formation.
[Primordial Heaven Shrine]
The sky thunder divine being had departed without a sound. It seemed to have gained tremendous benefits from the earlier upheaval: much of its injuries had healed, and it could even manifest a human form now.
"Clear" continued to rise, drawing the position proof [Pure Capital] up into the heavens with it. All manner of pure, numinous visions of mountains and waters manifested, accompanied by an elusive, unfathomable aura of primordial heaven qi.
No one could stop this position proof from ascending. They could only watch it return to the fundamental Great Dao of clear.
By contrast, the [Mystery Chamber] grew ever more resplendent, resonating with the entire divine domain. It seemed intent on carrying this sacred land of the divine dao away, making the qi of incense offerings stream ceaselessly through heaven and earth.
Numerous lofty divine statuses descended here. Billowing gray-green winds abruptly arose, raging between heaven and earth and scattering the rising incense offerings.
"The one from origin wood is none other than Yuan Yan!"
Xu Xuan still kept his divine status concealed, remaining hidden, but he understood that some intelligence within this divine domain was likely preparing to depart with the entire heavenly realm.
