The entire Trial Ancient Land had descended into utter chaos with the emergence of the source of the Dao. Bloody battles raged everywhere.
Although Lu Chen had slaughtered a group of powerful cultivators with ruthless force that day, intimidating many, wave after wave of other formidable foes still came for the legendary source of the Dao in the days that followed. He mercilessly cut them all down.
In the end, the fighting truly caused the earth to sink, the sun and moon to lose their light, and mountains and rivers to shatter.
