Jiangnan City.
The night was cool and quiet.
Bai Jingchuan sat cross-legged in his room, cultivating.
His aptitude was limited. Ever since he broke through to the Sixth Level of the Forming Yuan Stage several years ago, his cultivation had advanced very slowly. After all these years, he had only reached the middle phase of the Sixth Level of the Forming Yuan Stage.
He knew that he was unlikely to reach the Ninth Level of the Forming Yuan Stage, the realm of a Grandmaster, in this lifetime, let alone become a Golden Core Great Grandmaster!
He had originally thought that even if he continued to cultivate diligently, breaking through to the Seventh Level of the Forming Yuan Stage—or at most the Eighth Level—would be his limit.

After all, the Zengyuan Pill worked on anyone below the Golden Core stage, and a single pill could raise one's cultivation by a whole level in a short time.
As long as he broke through to the Seventh Level of the Forming Yuan Stage, he could use the Zengyuan Pill's effects to reach the Ninth Level of the Forming Yuan Stage directly and become a Grandmaster!
