The figure of Hongjun Ancestor vanished.
Having merged with the Heavenly Dao, he had become part of it; though he disappeared, it could also be said that he exists in every corner of the world.
With the disappearance of Hongjun Ancestor, the Zixiao Palace also vanished.
The Jade Emperor knelt alone in the void, silent.
The Void Realm was originally a familiar place for the Jade Emperor, as the Zixiao Palace resided within it, and back then, as a Taoist Boy beside Hongjun Ancestor, the Jade Emperor naturally lived in the Void Realm.
But now, kneeling alone in this Void Realm, the Jade Emperor no longer felt any familiarity.
Instead, this nothingness of the Void Realm gave a sense of emptiness and solitude.
The Jade Emperor's eyes gazed into the pitch black, empty void; his vision suddenly became blurred, as if a thin film covered his eyes, making it impossible to see clearly.
Yet, in this haze, the Jade Emperor seemed to see a time long, long ago.
