This cataclysmic disaster served as a wake-up call. Many of the remaining Earth Immortals began to question the validity of their path, reflecting on the gains and losses of their civilization over the years.
The two great powers had also suffered devastating losses from the Grand Emperor's focused counterattacks during their campaign to eliminate him, leaving them unable to maintain complete control over the situation. Furthermore, the Fruit Positions of fallen Earth Immortals no longer returned upon their deaths. While one could devour and assimilate their corpses, a true qualitative transformation was impossible; the will of the previous Earth Immortal would always linger in the flesh and blood.
The struggle for the Earth Immortal Fruit Position was now a thing of the past.
Thus, the disputes ceased, and the world entered a rare period of peace.
