When a cultivator works hard to cultivate without much improvement in their cultivation base, it might be because of insufficient cultivation or erroneous cultivation practices.
But if one has been cultivating diligently for a long time without any change, it may not be a lack of effort but a penance, atoning for past laziness.
Bei Yan is indeed atoning.
Among the disciples of Four Treasures Peak, perhaps the least diligent in cultivation are him and the Renowned Enemy, whose path differs as the Renowned Enemy does not focus primarily on combat.
After obtaining Qiao Jingyao's promise, he cultivated frantically but remained distanced from the other disciples of Four Treasures Peak, especially Ling Xi, Xiang Ziyu, and the others who seemed to notice.
Fortunately, he persevered, and after relentless cultivation, he finally sensed a glimpse of the threshold to the True Immortal Realm.
