Even with the assistance of his idle slot, Chen Fan still lagged far behind Thunder Peng in cultivating lightning arts.
At this moment, even after breaking through to the third level of the Longevity realm, Chen Fan's idle progress and cultivation efficiency had improved considerably. Yet he had only just barely advanced from the thirty-first level to the thirty-third.
Thunder Peng, meanwhile, had already cultivated his lightning arts to the thirty-sixth level.

Even if it far surpasses those of the same level, it can only barely compare to the fourth level of Boundless. My true spirit's resistance is far inferior to Thunder Peng's..."
