Time flowed like water; days and months flew by like a shuttle.
Long years were enough to completely change a person.
Back then, the Great Sage had been so proud that, aside from the Sea Calming Divine Needle in his hand, he had disdained using any other weapon.

The simplest and most direct method of combat, carrying out the purest form of strength.

This was combat technique!
Within the Sea of Consciousness, Lin Yi was deeply shocked.
