Every swing of the sword, every effort to regulate the world's Yin and Yang, could not be done in secret.
Instead, it required the full mobilization of the Nine Countries for a grand ceremony of sacrifice to Heaven and Earth.
By now, the sword was being swung as frequently as once every twenty years.
For Cultivators, twenty years passed in the blink of an eye, and performing the ritual so frequently was naturally exhausting.
But for most Mortals, a lifetime might only span two or three such twenty-year intervals, so they never grew weary of it.
On the contrary, they found it deeply ceremonial and were utterly devout.
Thus, in recent years, the Power of Human Dao that Master Hui Feng could command had actually been growing stronger.
Unfortunately, her own power was limited. Even if she could command a greater Power of Human Dao, it wouldn't be enough to reverse the fact that Momenan's Spiritual Qi was on the verge of vanishing completely.
