Not bad, the God Forger was very angry, but that was no reason for you, God Forger, to mock him. Suddenly, the screams of the God Forger echoed once again within this small space. Only after the Heaven Suppressing King had vented his frustration did he walk away with his hands behind his back, feeling quite pleased.

In just a few days, with the help of the Indestructible Substance, Li Zhen broke through Rank 7 rapidly and became a powerhouse at the Rank Eight Golden Body Realm. Consequently, Li Zhen left Zhenxing City; he was going to find Zhang Tao.

Upon arriving in Kyoto, Li Zhen entered Zhang Tao's home without the slightest bit of courtesy and shouted boisterously, "Zhang Tao, I've come to find you!"

Zhang Tao, who was cultivating in his room, stopped and told Li Zhen to come straight up. After all, if he kept shouting downstairs, he would disturb the cat, and Li Zhen would likely end up in bad luck.

Li Zhen jogged all the way to Zhang Tao's room and laughed, "Zhang Tao, you brat, you'd better thank me this time!"

Zhang Tao was stunned. Thank you? Thank you for what? He didn't understand what Li Zhen meant; it was completely out of the blue, and he had no idea what Li Zhen was talking about.

"Look at what this is!" Li Zhen took out the Indestructible Substance that the Heaven Suppressing King had given him and waved it in front of Zhang Tao as if showing off.

Zhang Tao raised an eyebrow. That was a lot of Indestructible Substance, about the same amount the Grey Cat had given him. Where did this kid get it?

Seeing that Zhang Tao didn't speak, Li Zhen assumed Zhang Tao was stunned, so he chuckled and said, "The ancestor gave this to me. Come on, don't say I don't look out for my brother. We'll split it in half; this will save us a lot of time on the path to Rank 8!"

Watching Li Zhen actually divide it in half for him, Zhang Tao was taken aback, then smiled. This Li Hanhan was still quite lovable, and when there was something good, he really thought of him. He was truly a good brother.

One had to know that originally, on the human side, the Heaven Suppressing King had laid out a plan intended for Li Zhen to walk the Human Emperor Path.

As it turned out, he had emerged out of nowhere and stolen the spotlight from Li Zhen. Yet, now Li Zhen was still willing to give him half of the Indestructible Substance. He was truly worthy of a friendship forged in life and death.

Zhang Tao pushed that half of the Indestructible Substance back toward him. Seeing that Zhang Tao wouldn't accept it, Li Zhen got a bit anxious. He thought Zhang Tao was just being too proud to take it and was about to say something when he saw a golden ball of light appear in Zhang Tao's hand, about the same size as his own. Li Zhen's eyes widened instantly.

He then realized what was going on. No wonder this stubborn rascal didn't want it. Damn it, he had been wondering when such a shameless guy like Zhang Tao had changed his nature. So that was it—this guy already had some. But where did this guy's Indestructible Substance come from?

"You... who gave this to you? Don't tell me you picked it up!" Li Zhen asked immediately. There was no helping it; this guy Zhang Tao's luck was bizarre. Sometimes, he really could just pick things up.

"The cat gave it to me. Otherwise, there's no way I could cultivate this fast!" Zhang Tao laughed.

Li Zhen realized. That cat was very powerful. He hadn't expected the cat to give Zhang Tao so many good things. Tsk tsk. Why did he feel a bit jealous? Thinking about how the cat had bullied him that day, Li Zhen silently decided he didn't want to talk anymore.

So, Li Zhen didn't hesitate and put his own Indestructible Substance away, saying, "Now that we're both Rank 8, we can't just cultivate every day. I feel like I've been cultivating too fast lately, and my control over my power has slipped. Should we go to the Catacombs to train?"

Zhang Tao shook his head and said, "For now, the priority is still to improve our golden bodies. As for going to the Catacombs, heh, how would we train? Unless the Catacombs launch a war, if we high-rankers act recklessly, it will cause trouble."

Li Zhen nodded; that made sense.

"Li Zhen, don't think too much for now. Take advantage of the lack of war recently to improve your strength as much as possible. As for power control, we can think about that later when our progress slows down!" Fearing that Li Zhen hadn't taken it to heart, Zhang Tao added immediately.

Hearing Zhang Tao's words, Li Zhen agreed, because what Zhang Tao said was reasonable.

Just then, the voice of Nan Yunping came from downstairs.

"Hey, Zhang Tao, come out quickly! I've already achieved the Unification of Essence and Blood; I'll be able to enter Rank 7 soon!"

Listening to Nan Yunping's excited voice, Li Zhen asked in confusion, "How is she cultivating so fast?"

He had to remember that he had spent two years at Rank 6 back then without much progress. How long had it been for Nan Yunping, and she had already achieved the Unification of Essence and Blood?

Zhang Tao laughed, "Need you ask? It must be because the Dean is giving her special treatment!"

Just as Zhang Tao said, after Zhang Tao gave his harvest from the Land of King Battles to Li Xianling, Li Xianling had found the Source-less Mental Power and allowed young talents in Kyoto like Nan Yunping and Nan Yunyue to come and cultivate. Their progress was naturally rapid.

Especially Nan Yunyue, who had directly sealed her Gate of Spirit, and her vital energy and blood were also sealed under the flushing effect of the Energy Fruit given by Zhang Tao. It could be said that in just a few days, Nan Yunyue had walked a path that took others years.

Now, Nan Yunyue, having achieved the Unification of Essence and Blood, was only one step away from the manifestation of mental power.

After calling Nan Yunyue up, she saw that Li Zhen was there too and laughed, "Li Hanhan is here too. You two really are best buddies, inseparable. Let me tell you, I'm going to catch up to you!"

Today, Nan Yunyue had come to announce that she, Nan Yunyue, would absolutely not be left behind by these two guys.

Li Zhen looked at Nan Yunyue with a dark expression, and golden light suddenly shone from his body.

The mark of the Rank Eight Golden Body Realm was revealed without a doubt.

Nan Yunyue's mouth hung open instantly, and she looked at Li Zhen in disbelief. She had been fast enough, even cheating, but what was she seeing? She saw that Li Zhen was actually Rank 8. Rank 8! That was Rank 8!

Nan Yunyue's heart was roaring wildly.

Zhang Tao also silently let golden light appear on his body. Nan Yunyue went numb. Li Hanhan was already Rank 8; how could this stubborn rascal Zhang Tao not be Rank 8? But this was unscientific! She had been cultivating so hard, even cheating to cultivate, so why was the gap getting even wider?

One had to know that although Rank 7 was a transitional stage for Grandmasters, and everyone even had mental power cultivation techniques, most Rank 7 Grandmasters would soon advance to Rank 8.

However, that still took time! Weren't you guys too fast? Do your mothers know you're this fast?

Nan Yunyue was speechless. But the more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Why?

"Ahhhhh, you two bastards, how exactly are you cultivating? I don't believe you're cultivating this fast naturally!" Nan Yunyue lunged at them immediately.

At this moment, Nan Yunyue didn't care about the boundaries between men and women.

Being pinned down directly by Nan Yunyue, Li Zhen and Zhang Tao were simply speechless. Was this woman really a woman?

Well, feeling the sensation against their chests, there was no mistake.

"Alright, get up first. I have a Heavenly Gold Lotus here; you can reach Rank 8 soon too!" Zhang Tao said helplessly.
