The River Ji Dragon Seal, having absorbed the spirit essence from the death of Prince Ji Du, had already shed its former crude appearance akin to a stubborn stone, undergoing a drastic transformation.
This dragon seal is no longer a mere symbol, but a true imperial seal capable of controlling the ancestral source of the River Ji.
As Shen Yuan took the River Ji Dragon Seal out from his Storage Ring, the seal started to furiously absorb the Spirit Energy in the Secret Realm, like a traveler in the desert who finally found a source of water.
In between the consumption and release of Spirit Energy, a mist rose from the mouth of the carved Divine Dragon, seeming ready to break free from the seal's restraint and take flight, returning to the River Ji waterways thousands of miles away.
However, this Secret Realm was detatched from the real world and could not allow the River Ji Dragon Seal to re-establish connection with the River Ji waterways.
