After returning to Primordial Antiquity, Li Qiankun headed straight for the Fierce Realm. Before leaving, he thanked Han Yi. With Han Yi's support this time, he had been able to obtain the inheritance he wanted within that mysterious ruin space.
Then he added, "Even a newborn Grave Beast requires the two of us working together to barely kill it. If it's in its juvenile stage, our only path is to flee for our lives."
"Chaos is changing violently. Strength is paramount. I hope that the next time I see Fellow Daoist Han, you will have already stepped into the Heavenly Venerable realm."
Han Yi's brows twitched slightly. The implication in Li Qiankun's words was obvious: he was confident that by their next meeting, he would have advanced to Heavenly Venerable. That was why he spoke this way.
Han Yi cupped his hands. "Man proposes, Heaven disposes. Before a crisis, one must naturally risk one's life in a desperate fight."
He did not overstate things, but the confidence in his bones that he could advance to Heavenly Venerable was plain for all to see.
The two exchanged a smile, then parted ways and fled in different directions. Li Qiankun went straight for the Fierce Realm, while Han Yi headed toward the Great Luo Territory.
Though this invitation had lasted only a short time, Han Yi's gains had been considerable. Whether it was his broader understanding of Chaos's supreme powerhouses, obtaining a fragment of Ten Thousand Nether City, tempering his divine power, or his final battle against the Grave Beast, every one of them had been an improvement.
Of these, what worried him most was naturally the Grave Beast.
Though his battle with the Grave Beast had not lasted long and involved few moves, it could almost be considered his full strength.
