The two rays of divine light were emitted by none other than Thousand-Mile Eye and Wind-Listening Ear.
These two immortals possessed unremarkable magic power, yet each held a unique, heaven-bestowed ability: one could see across the nine heavens, and the other could hear across the ten earths. As the Immortal Realm governed all major heavens and earths, these two were indispensable. No movement could escape their eyes and ears.
Under normal circumstances, Thousand-Mile Eye and Wind-Listening Ear would not constantly monitor the movements of every corner of the heavens. After all, most of the time, nothing of consequence happened in those realms; keeping a constant watch would be exhausting. Moreover, apart from the various mortal realms, each major Immortal Realm was overseen by a Sovereign Immortal, each possessing the cultivation level of a Daluo Golden Immortal. With such figures governing the Immortal Realms and their subordinate mortal realms, the Immortal Realm generally did not need to intervene. It was much like how the Immortal Realm was the central government, while the various Immortal Realms and their constituent lands were the provinces; local affairs were naturally handled by local officials, and nothing reached the heavens unless it was a major crisis.
