In history, some freaks of nature possessed terrifyingly fast cultivation speeds in their early stages, advancing by a realm almost every year!
Of course, a large part of this was because these individuals were pouring their entire effort into breaking through realms.
They were not like Li Yunjing, who spread his focus thin and multi-tasked.
These freaks were even fully cultivated by the factions they belonged to.
They did not need to run errands or risk their lives in competition; the powers behind them provided everything they required.
The only demand those powers had for these freaks was to cultivate with all their might.
Thus, Li Yunjing reaching the Eighth Heaven of Foundation Establishment Realm at over forty years old was far behind.
At this age, some had even formed their Golden Cores.
However, in terms of combat power, Li Yunjing was the undisputed number one in history.
Killing a Seventh Heaven of Golden Core Realm cultivator while at the Eighth Heaven of Foundation Establishment Realm was absolutely shocking and unparalleled.
It was precisely Li Yunjing's repeated defiance of cultivation truths that made the sect's ancestors recognize his talent and willingness to pay a price to cultivate him.
Even the several suppressions by Qin Jiuxiao were intended to temper Li Yunjing's temperament.
From the day Qin Jiuxiao accepted Li Yunjing as his closing disciple, the trials were officially over.
From that day on, Li Yunjing took charge of Seven Stars Peak and commanded the Immortal Dao.
As long as Li Yunjing remained steady in the coming days, progressed smoothly in his cultivation, and handled sect affairs without major blunders, he had the highest probability of becoming the next Sect Leader of the Divine Firmament Dao Sect.
As for the infighting that arose from competing for the position of Sect Leader?
