Outside of the chaos that was taking place inside the territory of the Star Shattering Sect, the rest of the powers surrounding the Onyx Empire managed to deal with the situation without a lot of problems. The only power that experienced a worse situation than the Star Shattering Sect being the empire that bordered both the Onyx Empire and the Frozen Wasteland.
In the end, this empire was forced to deal with an influx of demonic cultivators from two different directions at the same time.
If not for the timely arrival of cultivators from the Blue Sea Empire, it wouldn't have been out of the question for this empire to end up in a similar state as the Onyx Empire.
At the same time, the first existence in the Dao Seed Realm also appeared a few days after the fall of the Star Shattering Sect branch.
