Dao Lord Taichu let out a breath of relief, then picked the Golden Sun Sacred Lotus and flew toward the distance.
He needed to find a secluded place to refine the Golden Sun Sacred Lotus.
Before long, he arrived in a forest and found a hidden spot.
Dao Lord Taichu exhaled deeply, sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and composed himself as he prepared to refine the Golden Sun Sacred Lotus.
Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, seven days went by.
On this day, Dao Lord Taichu opened his eyes. His aura had grown even more powerful, and his eyes shone as brilliantly as the sun. Flames appeared around him—the Solar Divine Fire, scorching the heavens.
"I've finally absorbed the Golden Sun Sacred Lotus completely. My strength has improved by quite a bit!"
He murmured to himself before continuing to cultivate cross-legged.
About five more days passed, and dazzling radiance erupted from Dao Lord Taichu's body. His aura soared like a rainbow.
Over these days, he had continuously refined the Golden Sun Sacred Lotus until he had finally refined and absorbed it completely. His cultivation had risen another level.
He rose to his feet, assessed his strength, and revealed a satisfied expression.
He then set off once more. Before long, he arrived at a towering great city.
It was evening, with the setting sun painting the horizon orange and bathing the entire land in twilight. The view was exceptionally beautiful, creating a peaceful and pleasant scene.
This was a great city, more prosperous than any commandery Dao Lord Taichu had visited before. All sorts of people lived within it, and every one of them possessed respectable cultivation.
Dao Lord Taichu did not linger and walked directly into the city, searching for an inn.
