Terminus Valley lay in ruins, the lingering aura of power refusing to disperse.
Mu Jingfeng stood beside the cross-legged Lin Xuan, his brows deeply furrowed.
"Why do I have this feeling? Could it be that Junior Brother is not only recovering, but also improving at a frantic pace?"
No one knew that Mu Jingfeng's heart was already a storm-tossed sea.
He had been watching Lin Xuan all along. Clearly, Lin Xuan had only sat cross-legged for an instant, yet in the very next second, Mu Jingfeng felt Lin Xuan's power growing ever more profound.
That feeling was like when he had gazed upon the ink-black Starry Sky Mystic Realm within the mystic realm back then.
He had actually developed an instinctive fear of Lin Xuan.
"Even a breakthrough could not be this fast, could it?"
"Or is a true monster beyond my ability to fathom?"
In the end, Mu Jingfeng could only shake his head with a helpless sigh.
At the same time, as though to confirm his guess, Lin Xuan opened his eyes.
Ten thousand years within the Soul Suppressing Pagoda had passed in but an instant, while the outside world seemed frozen in place.
At this moment, not only had he achieved an enormous breakthrough and undergone an epic increase in combat power, he had long since fully recovered.
Thud!
Mu Jingfeng suddenly took a step back, his gaze turning horrified.
"J-Junior Brother..."
He spoke, his words stammering.
At the instant Lin Xuan had opened his eyes, Mu Jingfeng had caught sight of a terrifying sharpness that made him instinctively afraid.
"What is wrong, Senior Brother?"
Lin Xuan glanced at Mu Jingfeng in puzzlement.
Mu Jingfeng took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the panic in his heart before asking, "Junior Brother, have you broken through again?"
"A little."
