Lin Heng took the Pangu Axe with him.
The powerful figures from Four Seas on the ninth level of the Eternal Ruins also departed one after another.
Hermoz was the last one left.
He glanced at the other cultivators heading towards the eighth floor, a smile of enigmatic meaning playing on his lips.
After the people from the other three sea areas had left.
Hermoz glanced back at the bronze cauldron that was nurturing a top-tier spiritual treasure.
"Unfortunately, this is the last time a top-tier spiritual treasure will appear in the Primordial Chaos Universe."
The powerful figures from the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea who were still present were somewhat puzzled by Hermoz's words.
But before anyone could ask...
Hermoz had already led the way towards the eighth floor.
Seeing this, the people of the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea had no choice but to follow.
Although the Pangu Axe already has an owner.
But the Eternal Ruins did not disappear immediately.
One month later, the strongest warriors from Four Seas will be summoned here once again.
At that time, perhaps a new powerhouse at the Eternal Ages Cosmic Origin Realm will be born.
Hermoz after leaving the Eternal Ruins.
He led the people from the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea directly back to his palace.
In the past, this time not only did we not gain any benefits, but we also lost manpower.
Hermoz will definitely be furious and give his men a good scolding.
But it seems that after what happened in the Heavenly Star Sea Region...
Hermoz's entire state of mind has changed considerably.
This time, not a single person was reprimanded.
Instead, Hermoz offered some words of comfort to his men.
They were then given some treasures as a reward before being allowed to leave.
After leaving Hermoz Palace.
The powerful figures of the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea gathered in twos and threes, all feeling quite puzzled.
"What's wrong with the lord? He didn't reprimand us and even gave us a reward?"
"What's wrong? Aren't you a shameless wretch? The lord is treating us better now, aren't you used to it?"
"However, I also wonder, could it be that Lin Heng Dijiang really gave you too much of a shock, which led to your change?"
Don't overthink it, it's not a bad thing anyway.
"Although we failed to obtain the Pangu Axe this time, the rewards from the master are quite good, and I am content."
"Indeed, isn't it good that you're like this, my lord?"
After that final remark, no one pressed for further questions.
After all, Hermoz in the past could only be described as brutal.
I worked under him back then.
The powerful figures of the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea were all trembling with fear.
Now that Hermoz has changed, it won't do them any harm.
Naturally, no one wanted to think about it too much.
On the other side!
Inside the main hall of the palace.
Hermoz sat alone in the palace.
Before long, the space in front of him began to distort.
In just a few seconds, a figure emerged from that distorted space.
But the people who changed Hermoz were not Lin Heng Dijiang.
The real mastermind behind it all is the person who has just appeared.
Hermoz looked at him, a smile playing on his lips.
" Fate, you've finally arrived."
That's right, the person who came was none other than Fate, bearing Mu Chen's appearance.
Hermoz received a message from Fate in the Heavenly Star Sea Region, which caused the change in his state of mind.
He then returned alone to the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea, also to meet his Fate.
When Fate intervened, it smiled and squinted at Hermoz.
Is things developing as I told you?
Hermoz chuckled softly upon hearing this.
"Indeed, Lin Heng had a backup plan."
"He also seized the Pangu Axe this time."
"Now that he has gathered all three spiritual treasures of the Pangu Axe..."
"It seems I will break through to the Eternal Ages Cosmic Origin Realm in a month."
Before Hermoz could finish speaking...
But Fate refuted his words.
"It's not Lin Heng who will break through to the Eternal Ages Cosmic Origin Realm in a month."
Hermoz was stunned.
Lin Heng obtained all three Pangu Axe, yet he wasn't the one who broke through to the Eternal Ages Cosmic Origin Realm?
Fate, however, offered no explanation, only stating calmly:
"The course of the universe is predetermined, and no one can change it."
"Just as I told you, you will replace Hongjun in the future and become the strongest lord of the Four Seas. This is destiny."
Hermoz's initial shock turned into delight.
This caused such a change in his mindset.
It was Fate that said he would replace Hongjun.
Having reached that level, what else could he possibly care about?
At that moment, Hermoz immediately became a little fanboy.
He rose and stepped down from the seat of honor.
When he came before Fate, he respectfully bowed with his hands clasped.
I don't know what to do next.
Fate did not speak, but simply passed over him and sat down on the highest throne above.
It's a pity that the place that was originally meant for me was taken by Fate.
Hermoz, however, showed no sign of displeasure.
After sitting down, Fate rested his right hand on the armrest, his palm supporting his chin, and glanced indifferently at Hermoz before speaking.
"During this time, get as close to Lin Heng as possible."
"Then, during your casual conversation, you can tell him more about the things Primordial Chaos has done in the past."
"Anything can be said; there's no need to target anyone."
Hermoz was somewhat puzzled.
Is it enough to just chat with Lin Heng about Primordial Chaos?
He simply couldn't understand what fate was trying to achieve by Fate this.
Then, Fate stood up!
"Some things you don't need to understand too clearly."
"You just need to remember."
"Just do as I say."
"You will naturally become the one Lord of the Four Seas."
The opportunity is before you; the choice is yours.
As the last word of Fate was uttered, his figure slowly disappeared from the hall.
Hermoz frowned slightly after Fate disappeared.
Choose to cooperate with Fate.
He always had a sense of unease.
One can face the conditions that Fate presents.
He simply couldn't refuse.
After standing there for a while and thinking it over,
Hermoz gritted his teeth and made the decision.
Just by going to chat with Lin Heng, he could replace Hongjun.
Why not do something like that?
Heavenly Star Sea Region!
After leaving the ninth level of the Eternal Ruins, Lin Heng and his group returned here.
This is a matter of great importance, especially considering the acquisition of the Pangu Axe treasure.
Lin Heng and the others naturally wanted to celebrate.
During the banquet!
Dijiang and the others also inquired about Lin Heng regarding the Pangu Axe.
After all, Lin Heng had used the Pangu Axe once before in the Eternal Ruins.
The power of that attack is something that Dijiang and his companions still cannot forget.
Lin Heng seemed somewhat helpless about this.
He recounted how the Pangu Axe extracted energy.
After hearing Lin Heng's account, Dijiang and the others stared wide-eyed.
Even with Lin Heng's current strength, he couldn't even use the Pangu Axe to attack a few times.
Was the Pangu Axe tailor-made for powerhouses at the Eternal Ages Cosmic Origin Realm?
With this in mind, everyone turned their attention to Dijiang.
Isn't there an ideal test subject right here?
