Chen Lan left the Cyan Wood Realm, where he had stayed for over ten thousand years. In the outside world, only a year had passed. According to the memories of the avatar he left on Blue Star, there had been no significant dangers during this period.
The Evil Race did not attack; only some invaders from other planets appeared, which Nuwa and the others could easily handle.
A year to a cultivator is equated with just a day or two, something that passes in a closed-door cultivation session.
What surprised him was that the Elder of Destiny had been waiting outside. As soon as he exited, he saw the Elder of Destiny.
"You actually came out?!" The Elder of Destiny was shocked and surprised at the first sight of Chen Lan. "How did you come out so early? You've only stayed inside for ten thousand years; could it be that you've already reached that realm?"
Chen Lan nodded slightly, "Yes, I have reached the pinnacle of the Dao of Time."
