The light ring slowly solidified and as the barriers between the various worlds in the Netherworld Sea fell, the calamities in the Netherworld Sea became more violent.
Even Xiao Yan was affected as he felt his control of the Netherworld Sea slipping away from him.
The Netherworld Sea was inherently violent and chaotic. It was easier to increase the intensity of its calamities. On the other hand, cultivating and taming the Netherworld Sea was an act that defied the will of heaven. It must be undertaken carefully.
Before one mastered the Netherworld Sea, it was much harder for one to calm it than to make it more aggressive.
However, Xiao Yan's connection with Catastrophe was the deepest. After residing in the Netherworld Sea for many years, and cultivating inside, he was still able to control parts of the Netherworld Sea in spite of its violence. No one else could compare to him in this regard.
