The storm triggered by the name "Xie Tian" didn't reach the lower realm at all.
First, because the news from Central State couldn't be known by the lower realm before the ancient battleground was opened.
Second, because most geniuses in the lower realm didn't know much about Xie Tian's past, only that he was a soldier of the death camp and was hunted by the Xie family like a stray dog.
But one person was very clear.
She had personally witnessed the series of defiant acts Xie Tian performed in the Abyss, defeating Dao Palace's Daozi, destroying the Dao Venerate's virtual shadow, forcing Lu Xian to use supreme Cultivation Techniques, comprehending ancient Dao troves in a blink, and mastering prohibitions...
More than two years since the Abyss's trip, it was by reflecting on these events that Xing'er derived the motivation for cultivation, diligently practiced, and thereby achieved Great Perfection in the Gangsha realm, and even secured an entrance-level sage fruit accomplishment.
