Gu Yan had indeed said that among the four realms of Immortals, there was an extremely large gap between each layer of heaven, and the Old Swindler had confirmed this point too, but to say that an existence from the Creation Third Layer Heaven could annihilate one from the Creation First Layer Heaven with just the aftershock of an aftershock was simply too much!
When Zhou Heng was breaking through to the Divinity Transformation Realm, he had once seen the golden patterns that filled the entire world!
That was very likely the grand Dao of nature!
Zhou Heng had thought that if one day he could reach the level of breaking those golden patterns, it was very likely that he would stand above the Heavenly Dao and truly be free from the constraints of life and death.
Could it be... that Huo Tian and the original owner of Black Sword had already reached this realm?
