The Daoist Ceremony was over, but the aftermath was still there. As the people of the various cosmic realm states left Will Heavenly Palace and returned to their respective sects, the news continued to spread along the way.
For a time, the entire Void was talking about this matter.
Many cosmic system states also received the news from various channels and were very curious about it. First, Will Heavenly Palace had always been very mysterious. Many forces were curious and wanted to know more about it.
Second, the Daoist Ceremony wasn't a small matter. The more they knew, the better they could avoid offending the Daoist Ceremony unknowingly or carelessly.
Yiyuan Sect, Yiyuan Star System.
"The third Daoist … Chen Zong!" The Sect Master of Yiyuan Sect and the other upper echelons were shocked when they heard the news.
"Is it the same name?" A Vice Sect Master couldn't believe it.
The Daoist of Will Heavenly Palace was like the godson of Yiyuan Sect. Of course, this was only a representation of the status within a faction. When it came to the true level, the two were very different.
It was like the Young City Lord of a small city and the Crown Prince of a dynasty. In the small city, the Young City Lord had a very high position. In the dynasty, the Crown Prince also had a very high position. It was a relative position.
However, the young city lord of a small city couldn't be compared to the crown prince of a dynasty.
The people of Yiyuan Sect couldn't believe it. The Chen Zong they knew was indeed a true disciple of Will Heavenly Palace and was indeed very talented. However, a Daoist and a true disciple were two different concepts.
Therefore, they couldn't believe that the third Daoist, Chen Zong, was the Chen Zong they knew.
"I have a feeling that this should be the Chen Zong we know." Su Luan smiled. Although he didn't believe it himself, he still had a feeling.
"How shocking." The Sect Master of Yiyuan Sect sighed. He didn't know what to feel.
Back then, Chen Zong was only at the Dao Manipulation Realm, which was a relatively low level among the Dao Manipulation Realm.
But now, according to the information he'd gathered, not only had Chen Zong become the third Daochild of the Heavenly Will Palace, he'd even fought with the third Daochild of the Purple Extreme Hall of Juyuan. Despite being at the same level of cultivation, he wasn't the slightest bit inferior to the third Daochild.
Based on what they knew, both sides had used high-level Yuan Underworld cultivators in that battle.
If this was really the Chen Zong they knew, it would be too shocking. It had only been a few years since he had gone from the low-level Dao Controlling Realm to the high-level Yuanming Realm. They couldn't imagine how he had cultivated.
Thinking about himself, even though his fighting prowess had increased over the years, he still hadn't achieved a breakthrough in his cultivation. In comparison, he felt so ashamed that he could dig a hole and hide in it.
Such discussions took place everywhere in the Yiyuan Sect. For a time, the name Chen Zong became famous in the void.
"Haha, what a coincidence. My son was just born, so I named him Chen Zong." Some people took advantage of the situation and named their children Chen Zong, hoping that their children would be as outstanding in the future.
"My son has already been named Chen Zong." Someone else snorted, his tone full of bragging.
"Your surname isn't Chen."
"Who said that one can't be named Chen Zong just because their surname isn't Chen? Remember, my son's name is Chen Zong."
This was also normal. Whenever someone became famous in the void, there would always be many people who would give their descendants the same or similar names, hoping to borrow luck and place their hopes on a beautiful wish.
Chen Zong didn't feel much about becoming famous in the void. No matter how great his reputation was, if he didn't have enough strength to support it, it would be like a castle in the air. Without a foundation, it would become a burden.
During his seclusion, Chen Zong had completely grasped the mysteries of the great path that he had comprehended at the Path Disciple Ceremony. He could also control the Heart Sword Domain and the Realm Domain with ease. The Sixth Sword of the Heart Refining Sword Art and the Boundless Vast Ocean of the Great World Sword Art had also been perfected to the extreme.
When the Realm Domain was stronger and filled in, the power of the sword moves would also be stronger.
However, Chen Zong didn't come out of seclusion. Instead, he continued to cultivate. The next step was the main focus of this seclusion.
Sword World!
First, he had to compress the Realm Domain.
The insights that he had gained during the Path Disciple Ceremony allowed Chen Zong to find the clue to compressing the Realm Domain. It was easier to get started.
Everything was difficult at the beginning. Once he got started, he would have to keep trying. Even if he failed again and again, every failure was preparation and accumulation for success.
In addition to his own efforts, he also had the help of the Demon Heart Divine Spirit, so the probability of success was even higher.
Cultivating Sword World, the Realm Domain replaced the Realm Core and compressed the Realm Core into the appearance of the Realm Core.
The Realm Core was the core left behind by the world, where the essence of the world lay.
It was the same principle to compress the Realm Core into the appearance of the Realm Core.
Chen Zong released the Realm Domain. The Realm Domain of 12,000 meters was fully activated. In an instant, the illusory image in the Realm Domain rapidly solidified.
Forests, mountains, rivers, swamps, and everything else were becoming real.
In the sky, wisps of clouds were growing, condensing into white clouds that fluttered in the sky. A great sun rose, blooming with boundless light that illuminated the earth.
When the blazing sun continued to revolve and set in the west, another cold moon rose in the eastern sky. It traversed the sky and emitted a faint moonlight. It was gentle, cold, and deep.
Sparse starlight dotted the sky as if blinking eyes.
The sun rose and the moon set. The moon set and the sun rose. Day and night alternated.
Immediately, the white clouds seemed to be dyed by thick ink and turned into a cloudless sky. It was gloomy and oppressive. Thunder rumbled and rain fell from the sky.
Clouds and rain fell, and the sun shone.
The leaves gradually turned yellow, and the air was filled with desolation. Autumn had arrived.
The leaves fell and returned to their roots. The temperature in the air dropped, and gradually, white snow fell.
Autumn went and winter came.
Then, spring thunder rumbled, spring rain fell, and new shoots sprouted.
This was winter going and spring arriving.
There was a rainstorm and a scorching sun in the sky. The shoots grew into dense branches and leaves. Summer had arrived.
The sun and moon alternated, the cycle of day and night, and the rotation of the four seasons.
This was the appearance of a complete world. This was also the limit that Chen Zong could achieve now.
It was time to compress.
The world domain of 12,000 meters began to compress inwardly under Chen Zong's extremely tyrannical spiritual will, with Chen Zong as the center.
This was compression, not contraction. Compression was to make the world domain more condensed, and contraction was to put it away. The concepts were different.
At first, the compression speed was very fast. 12,000 meters became 11,000 meters, and then it quickly became 10,000 meters.
Although the domain had shrunk, its power did not weaken at all. Instead, it became stronger. The rivers, lakes, forests, mountains, the sun, the moon, and the stars in the world domain became clearer and more condensed.
9,000 meters!
As it continued to compress, the speed became slower and slower. This was because Chen Zong could feel that the resistance of the compression was getting stronger and stronger. It seemed that there was an invisible force growing inside and constantly growing, preventing him from compressing the world domain.
This was inevitable and also existed in the deduction.
Chen Zong was also very clear that as it continued to compress, the resistance would become greater and greater, and the difficulty would become greater and greater.
But in any case, he had to face the resistance and compress the world domain to the limit.
What was the limit in the deduction?
One meter!
Only one meter!
It was amazing to compress a world domain of 12,000 meters to one meter. The gap was 12,000 times, but the difficulty was not as simple as that.
8,000 meters!
7,000 meters!
The world domain was constantly being compressed.
When it was compressed to 6,000 meters, the shadow inside was almost condensed into a real substance, and the aura it emitted gradually became obvious.
At the same time, Chen Zong could feel that the power of the world domain had more than doubled. Its suppression power was appalling.
5,000 meters!
4,000 meters!
3,000 meters!
2,000 meters!
1,000 meters!
When it was compressed to 1,000 meters, the resistance soared more than ten times, and Chen Zong began to feel the pressure.
At the same time, when Chen Zong was compressed to 1,000 meters, suddenly, a terrible force erupted directly inside the world domain. This force was so sudden and so abrupt that Chen Zong did not notice it for a while and had no time to guard against it.
In an instant, the world domain of 900 meters directly exploded under this force.
At the critical moment, Chen Zong quickly released the world domain and quickly restored it to its original state. All the rivers, mountains, sun, moon, stars, and so on inside exploded under the force and turned into chaos.
That was close!
Chen Zong couldn't help wiping away the cold sweat on his forehead. If he hadn't reacted in time, the World Domain would have exploded and directly injured him.
Fortunately, he was fast enough.
After calming down, Chen Zong adjusted his breath, recovered his essence, and compressed again.
With the experience of the first failure, Chen Zong paid more attention.
Not long after, it was compressed to 1,000 meters again. This time, he was prepared. Chen Zong immediately strengthened his control, resisted the sudden violent force impact, and stabilized the compressed world domain.
He continued to compress.
900 meters!
The resistance soared, but there was no sudden explosion.
800 meters!
700 meters!
In this way, time continued to pass.
At first, the speed of compression was very fast, but now the speed of compression was greatly reduced. Chen Zong felt that a long time had passed before he succeeded in further compression.
300 meters!
200 meters!
100 meters!
Suddenly, a force more violent than before suddenly emerged and erupted directly, more than twice as strong as before.
Even if Chen Zong was prepared, his control was still broken. Chen Zong immediately released the world domain and restored it at an amazing speed. Everything inside was shattered, and the counterforce swept inside like a destructive storm. That kind of terrible aura shocked Chen Zong.
If he fell into it, he was afraid that it would be very dangerous.
Exhaling a long breath, Chen Zong first recovered his essence, qi, and spirit. When all the consumed power reached the peak, he did not continue to compress. Instead, he got up and practiced swordsmanship as a way to adjust. After that, when he completely recovered his essence, qi, and spirit, he released the world domain again and compressed it again.
