Time flowed swiftly.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
With only two days left before the Western Mansion qualification test, Ryan finally prepared to leave the Forest of Death. By now, his cultivation had reached the Nine-Star Exalt realm, just one final threshold away from becoming an Upper Exalt.
If time allowed, he was confident he could break through completely. Unfortunately, reality left no room for indulgence.
Still, this half month had transformed him completely.
Not only had his level skyrocketed, but his true combat strength had increased severalfold.
Heavenly Star Palm, Landslide, and Wind Blade all reached full proficiency, unleashing power far beyond their initial limits.
Phantom Step was also perfected, granting him speed surpassing most Upper Exalts below the five-star level.
Below that realm, Ryan was confident no one could even touch him.
