"Was it that Firmament Emperor?!"
The many Dharma Bodies were still stuck at the Human Immortal and Earth Immortal realms. Never mind Legend-even Heavenly Immortal was far beyond them. The only possibility was that transmigrated Divine Saint, the Firmament Emperor who ranked first on the Heavenly Rankings.
His rate of advancement could be called heaven-defying. Not long after attaining his Dharma Body and slaying Gu Erduo, he had broken through to Earth Immortal. Now that several years had passed, independently attaining Legend seemed quite reasonable.
Reasonable, my ass!
There was nothing reasonable or normal about this speed of cultivation.
In the cultivation system of Lifetime, every step was a heavenly abyss. A single realm often required decades of honing before one could break through. Even as a transmigrated Divine Saint, he should not have progressed so quickly.
Yet layer upon layer of mist-shrouded worlds emerged between heaven and earth, proving that what they saw was no illusion. This was the independent attainment of Legend.
Every layer of those worlds was filled with ruin. Toppled and collapsed pavilions and palaces were visible within them, emanating an ethereal sense of supremacy.
In a secluded chamber somewhere, Su Wuming, who had only recently attained his Dharma Body and was sending his spirit roaming through the myriad heavens to sense more Other Selves, opened his eyes. They were deep pools without the slightest ripple.
At Thrush Heights, Mister Lu set down his hoe and closed his eyes to perceive it, responding with his heart. He sensed the unique qualities of the Immortal Realm Spanning the Sky and the characteristics of Legend, using them to corroborate his own path.
"I wonder what manifestations this reincarnated Divine Saint will attain in this life." Holding the Demon Saint Spear, Taili watched the manifestation rising in the distance.
