Quiet months passed in the piece of the Immortal Lands.
Those months then became years, but the heroic existences inhabiting the new continent barely noticed that passage of time.
Black clouds though often appeared on the sky above it, and the crackling of thunders followed them every time.
Many rank 3 cultivators had been stuck on the last step before the heroic ranks, but the new environment and the help from strong organizations allowed them to cross it.
Something had become apparent to the three big nations when they realized how sharply the Hive had grown: The independence of the Coral archipelago could be the first of many successful revolutions!
Their internal issues had been exposed, and the fall of the piece of Immortal Lands further worsened their political situation.
A new land meant new hopes!
Of course, the rebelling forces didn't aim for the new continent, the environment there was simply too harsh for organizations that barely had heroic assets.
