In the short term, Lin Xuan would not be able to spend much more cultivation time, but the more of this thing, the better.
By now, the cultivation time within Lin Xuan's Soul Suppressing Pagoda had climbed to an entirely new height, reaching an astonishing 662.4 million years.
"What a pity. Of the twenty Transcendent Realm great demons, only eleven were Peak Earth Immortals and Near Dao Earth Immortals. The other nine were all Late Earth Immortals, so the cultivation time gained was halved. Otherwise, breaking through the 700 million mark would have been easy."
Lin Xuan shook his head regretfully and gradually gathered his thoughts.
At that moment, the Confucian Dao Celestials came before Lin Xuan one after another, clasping their hands and bowing in greeting.
"Young Master Lin Xuan!"
The eyes of the Confucian Dao Celestials all shone with adoration, like a group of... elderly fanboys.
It could not be helped. Most of these Confucian Dao Celestials were already advanced in years, their hair streaked with gray.
Of course, this was merely the appearance they chose to maintain. With Celestial Immortal cultivation, even after tens of thousands of years, they could still preserve a youthful appearance.
Lin Xuan did not understand their peculiar preferences. He only found it somewhat strange for a group of "old men" to address him this way.
"Everyone, the battle is urgent. Recover as quickly as possible, then head to the various regions to provide support..."
Leaving behind those words, Lin Xuan's figure burst apart into flecks of silver light and vanished into the distance in an instant.
"Uh..."
The Confucian Dao Celestials froze for a moment, then their faces filled with regret.
They had wanted to forge a close relationship with Lin Xuan, but unfortunately, Lin Xuan gave them no opportunity at all.
