In the future, with every additional True Immortal in the two palaces, there will be one more to guide Shi Ze.
To this day,
only he remains without having proven the Dao in the Dongqi and East River palaces, already surrounded by eight True Immortals.
Shi Ze sometimes mocks himself, that throughout history, no other fourth-order cultivator has received such treatment.
But the Great Dao is elusive, and even with the help of eight True Immortals, Shi Ze still hasn't grasped that thread of spiritual light and has yet to prove the Dao. He is two thousand one hundred eighty years older than Chen Jichuan and is now forty-five thousand five hundred years old, with not much time before his ultimate limit.
Up high,
the eight True Immortals' Dharma Domains flourish, intermingling brilliantly.
Shi Ze sits solemnly among them.
