Lu Yu unfolded the Earth Ranking and in that instant, felt his heart merge with the list, entering that peculiar state where one neither revels in material joy nor wallows in personal sorrow. At this moment, his eyes could see the grey Calamity Qi permeating between heaven and earth. With a gentle push of his hand, the Calamity Qi that enveloped the entire Great Chen flowed like water. Under his deliberate guidance, it descended upon the cultivators' heads.
After obtaining the Earth Ranking, he had learnt that this Divine Enthronement served two purposes, one was to select City Gods for the Underworld and to test the strengths and weaknesses of the City God system. The second reason was because Great Chen's Immortal Path flourished excessively, the inflow and outflow of Spiritual Energy were unbalanced, and a great calamity was needed to settle the account, sending those cultivators with superficial roots and virtues unworthy of their positions into the cycle of Reincarnation.
