Ling Tian had spent so long in the Immortal Realm that his cultivation had become firmly established. With all that foundation built up, his strength rose quickly. Just one or two thousand years after ascending to the God Realm, he faced the tribulation marking the second major realm of Godly Beings. He passed it without danger, and was now a Partial God cultivator.
Feeling the far more vigorous energy within him and his much stronger body, Ling Tian's lips curled into a smile. "The early stage of Partial God is indeed much stronger than the Mortal God level. My cultivation isn't even stable yet, and I'm already this strong. Once it settles, won't I be even more formidable?"
"Heh, you've always been a freak. Your cultivation defies the heavens, so every time you break through, your strength makes a huge leap." Po Qiong chuckled. "I'd say that once your breakthrough is fully stabilized, ordinary late-stage Partial Gods—and even those at great perfection—won't be your match."
"You don't mean Partial God experts without Order Divine Artifacts, do you?" Ling Tian teased. "Those people wouldn't be a problem."
"Even if your opponent had an Order Divine Artifact, they might still be unable to do anything to you. You might even be able to kill a late-stage Partial God. But someone at great perfection would be difficult. If you run into one, you'd better flee." Po Qiong's tone was half joking, half serious.
"I really want to test myself against someone like that. After all, I haven't had a proper fight since ascending." Ling Tian sounded eager. "Only a real battle can show me how strong I am now."
Although he had tricked Xue Yang and the others and been hunted by Xue Jian and his companions, Ling Tian had never faced them
