Moreover, as he elevated himself to his ultimate state and returned to the seat of Heavenly Dao, a perpetual consumption of his essence ensued—this continuous drain was the most torturous.
If he lingered too long in the seat of Heavenly Dao, his entire consciousness would be sacrificed and become blank. By then, even if he detached himself, it would be meaningless. A soulless, detached, blank entity was still meaningless.
Once the decision was made, there was no turning back.
The cost was indeed too heavy!
If he were not pushed into a corner with no escape, the Fourth Dark Giant would never choose such a path.
Therefore, every moment he had left was incredibly precious.
Once he returned to the seat of Heavenly Dao, he would need to instantly complete all the necessary arrangements, not wasting a single moment.
