The orb remained in its previous position, and from where Lin Yuan stood, he could only see an indistinct, blurry shadow.
But its voice had not diminished in the slightest, as if Lin Yuan were still at the altar from just a moment ago, unfettered by the distance separating them.
It explained, "This is not my doing. Haven't I just explained it to you? This Outer Domain Space originally had an entrance and an exit, but they have been completely sealed by the lingering intent of the Heavenly Dao; there is no chance of escape. In fact, if there was any opportunity to leave, I would have taken it already. I now possess the identity of the current Heavenly Dao. As soon as I leave this place and touch the real world, I would be as free as birds soaring in the sky or fish diving in the sea. With the vastness of the world at my fingertips, I could accomplish great things. Why would I choose to remain sealed here, playing the role of the chief god?"
