With 105 kinds of Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures at their disposal—and, more importantly, a steady supply of Origin Power and all kinds of strange energy left behind after saints fell—Ling Tian, Chi Xue, and the others had advanced rapidly. Ten thousand years ago, Ling Tian had broken through to the middle stage of the Twenty-third Heaven of Near-Saint.

That gave him even more confidence in defeating the Demon Slayer Alliance.
