Sha Chen's expression was also somewhat grave.
He had not expected that after Lord Yuan Shi stepped into the Saint Realm, he could enhance his cultivation strength so rapidly. Even more so, he had ascended to another level right before his eyes.
It had always been Sha Chen who, during combat, would comprehend profound truths and thereby grow stronger. Yet, he had never seen anyone improve further while battling him, especially when their strength already surpassed his. This was simply inconceivable. When a stronger being fights a weaker one, there is little enlightenment to be gained. This is even more true after reaching the Saint Realm, where each small advancement is extremely difficult.
But he hadn't expected that Lord Yuan Shi, during their fight, would threaten the Heavenly Dao with his power, causing it to react by becoming stronger.
