Chapter 623: The Aftermath
Three days later, the continent was still recuperating from the destruction caused by Tarius. Many were repairing broken structures or rebuilding what had been destroyed. At this moment, the people across the continent stood united, working together to regain their vitality after the calamity.
Although many mourned the loss of lives during the calamity and war, life had to go on.
The continent also experienced peace and order during this time. There had been no open acts of evil in the last few days. Bandits and those with malicious intent did not dare to act as recklessly as before. They were afraid that, somehow, their evil deeds would become known to Aldrian.
At this moment, many already knew that Aldrian’s cultivation was above everyone else on the continent. His battle with a god had been visible to all, after all. Because no one knew the true extent or limits of Aldrian’s ability, many rumors began to spread among the populace.
Some said that Aldrian’s senses could cover the entire continent, making it pointless for anyone to try escaping if he decided to pursue them. There were also rumors that he could send a long-distance technique and kill anyone across the continent without even having to move an inch.
These rumors strongly deterred anyone who might have been tempted to test their luck by committing evil acts as they had in the past. Thanks to this, the continent had entered a period of order unlike anything before, where people no longer feared bandits or anyone who might disturb or kill them.
There were also other things that had happened in the past few days.
What Aldrian had said to the alliance forces had already spread across the continent, sparking widespread discussion, especially among those who still knew little about the world beyond their continent.
The news that the limitations placed on the continent for so many years had been lifted brought great joy. With those restrictions gone, cultivators could now break through to realms far beyond the peak emperor stage. Those who possessed divine techniques could finally begin to comprehend them, which would greatly benefit the continent’s overall strength in the long run.
As for the Devil Territory, or what it used to be called—Aldrian decided to give that land to the beastkind of the continent. The others simply followed his decision, as he held the greatest authority when it came to matters concerning the continent.
