By now, Chen Heng's identity was not as simple as before.
He was the Sect Master of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the ruler of this area. With a single thought, he controlled life and death for countless people.
His authority was many times greater than even emperors for mortals.
For a person like this to go on an inspection tour, it was no small matter.
As such, everyone paid great attention to this.
Some people wanted to take this opportunity to curry favor with him, while others purely wanted to show their respect. Some were also people Chen Heng had been familiar with in the past.
By now, after hundreds of years, most people from Chen Heng's generation had already passed away.
There would often be geniuses appearing, who had grown during the past hundreds of years.
Cultivators' lifespans were quite long, and they were extremely long compared to mortals.
Even an ordinary Foundation Building cultivator could live for hundreds of years.
Moreover, those with cultivation about Foundation Building would have even longer lifespans.
As such, there were still many people Chen Heng was familiar with in various places.
After hearing that Chen Heng was going on an inspection tour, they all wanted to go and travel with Chen Heng.
At first, there were only a few people, but soon, the group began to grow bigger and bigger.
Hou Juan, Zhang Ya, the Zhang clan's people, as well as some enemies from the past, all wanted to visit him.
Chen Heng did not mind and did not refuse them.
Right now, all he wanted to do was have a look at this empire he had built up.
The next month, an unexpected guest came to visit Chen Heng.
It was a tall and beautiful woman, who was dressed in a red dress. She had a voluptuous figure and was quite beautiful, and she wore a veil.
This was undeniably a very beautiful woman, and her aura was quite strong; she had reached the Profound Understanding realm.
She stood in the way of the group, as if she had been waiting.
"It has been quite a while; how is the Sect Master?"
Looking at the group, the woman smiled and walked up.
Zhang Ya and Hou Juan went up, not feeling too surprised to see her.
They had seen similar people during this period of time.
However, compared to those people, this person was quite special.
She was not someone from the Flowing Cloud Sect, and she was instead from the Rou Kingdom's royal family, Gao Yue.
"Long time no see. It seems that you've been doing well for yourself."
Within the massive imperial chariot, Chen Heng sat cross-legged as he looked at Gao Yue walking over.
"All thanks to Sect Master," Gao Yue said as he smiled.
Back then, Gao Yue had also been in the Flowing Cloud Sect and was a disciple.
She had asked Chen Heng to help her go to one of the Rou Kingdom's historical remnants.
Chen Heng had fulfilled his promise, and after his battle with the Divine Palace's Palace Master, he had headed with Gao Yue to the Rou Kingdom and found the historical remnant.
By then, all enemies had disappeared—they had either submitted or been destroyed.
The region of the Rou Kingdom also belonged to the Flowing Cloud Sect.
As such, Chen Heng had split off the Rou Kingdom's land and given it to Gao Yue, and he had made her the master of the Rou Kingdom.
By now, it had been a few hundred years.
After walking in, Gao Yue did not bow, and she just directly sat down and began to chat with Chen Heng.
They talked about many things, from current affairs to past events.
Only after a while, Gao Yue looked at Chen Heng and saw his increasingly pale face, and she asked, "Has it really become that bad?"
Looking at Chen Heng, Gao Yue asked earnestly.
Chen Heng's Dao Injury was no secret to them.
By now, many people had guessed at this.
However, she had never thought that it would be so serious.
For someone like Gao Yue, who understood the circumstances, Chen Heng's actions became even clearer.
He just wanted to have a look at this world before he died.
Hearing Gao Yue's words, Chen Heng paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "Indeed, it's about time. I'll be leaving first."
He raised his wine cup as he lightly laughed.
Gao Yue did not reply and only silently raised her wine cup, and she drank it in one gulp.
Happy times passed quickly.
To Chen Heng, spending time with old friends like Gao Yue was quite pleasant.
He knew that even if he did not really die, it would not be much different to this world's people.
After this simulation's body died, he would not be able to meet these people again.
Even if he could enter the Azure Heaven Realm again, he most likely would not be able to come to this world.
After all, it seemed that the Azure Heaven Realm was quite big, and there were many worlds within it.
Even if Chen Heng came again, the chances of him coming to this world were not big.
Given this, when this body of his reached its limit, it would be a permanent farewell.
Chen Heng was mentally prepared for this, and he did not feel too bitter about it.
He had been in similar positions before, and he was already used to it.
This was how things were: Even if he did not want this, what could he do?
Of course, Chen Heng wanted to stay for a bit longer and do more things.
However, even for him, wanting to continue on with his Dao Injury was impossible.
In actuality, for him to last until now was already his limit.
He had already held out for quite a while.
Based on his estimates, in about one or two years, he would begin to die.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng chuckled and gulped down the wine in his cup.
Time gradually passed.
Soon, one year had passed.
During that one year, Chen Heng travelled about, looking at the scenery.
During this process, Gao Yue and the others stayed by his side, as if they wanted to walk to the end with him.
Finally, they came to the Divine Mountain's historical remnant.
This had once been a forbidden area and a holy place.
However, after the battle between Chen Heng and the Divine Palace's Palace Master, the Divine Mountain had been obliterated and turned into ruins.
Even now, there were still remnant traces of magic energy from that battle.
Even after thousands of years, perhaps this would not change.
After coming here again, Chen Heng got off the imperial cart and slowly walked forwards, looking around.
The traces from before were still there.
As he walked, Chen Heng remembered every fight that had happened here.
However, all of that had passed.
Chen Heng spent some time under the Divine Mountain's ruins.
A few days later, a silver moon appeared in the sky, giving off dense light.
The ground trembled and the sky seemed to go through changes, and when cultivators in the surroundings sensed these changes, they felt a sense of suppression in their heart.
After the aura of suppression passed, it was replaced by great changes.
In just a short period of time, this place seemed to go through changes and became a holy land.
Rumbling spirit qi surged over, forming unique fruits.
In an instant, all kinds of signs appeared, looking quite extraordinary.
In the distance, seeing the various scenes, Hou Juan and the others could not help but sob in grief as they felt that familiar aura disappear.
Under the moon and night, a great genius had fallen.
Spirit light spread throughout the sky, covering this area.
Within the darkness, there was a hazy feeling.
There was absolutely nothing, like an eternal darkness.
After his consciousness crossed worlds, Chen Heng once again opened his eyes.
Following this, he saw the scenery around him.
