"Did they catch up!?"
Qin Feng murmured under his breath, stopping his cultivation and getting to his feet.
He'd seen that his talent had reached its limit and wanted to burn through his own lifespan to improve it. But he hadn't expected to be interrupted after completing Rebirth of the Dead Wood more than thirty times.
"This talent is really hard to improve!"
Qin Feng sighed helplessly.
Once his talent reached its limit, it would normally take hundreds of years to deduce his cultivation technique up to Emperor Rank.
But even after Rebirth of the Dead Wood more than thirty times, he still needed another two and a half years to deduce and upgrade it. There was no way he could finish the process in an instant. That showed just how poor his original talent had been.
"Ha... snore..."
Xiao Bai was still sprawled beside Qin Feng, fast asleep. Its snot bubble rhythmically swelled and shrank.
A few points of starlight circled around its body, clearly showing that it had leeched quite a bit of experience this time.
"They've come right to our door, and you're still asleep!"
Qin Feng rolled his eyes and lifted Xiao Bai up.
"Huh!?"
Xiao Bai rubbed its eyes in confusion, looking as if it had only just woken up.
Before it could figure out what was going on, Qin Feng carried it out of the room. When they reached the main hall, he saw everyone gathered there, their faces grave.
"Senior Brother Qin!"
Murong Jing, newly married, looked at him with bashful eyes.
"You're finally out!"
Mengyao Fairy let out a long sigh of relief when she saw Qin Feng.
She'd been afraid someone would interrupt his cultivation and hurt him.
Rumble!
Before either side could exchange a word, a deafening boom rang out.
