Yuan Tian vs. the Qilin Clan (Part One)

(Third update!!!) Luohou founded a cult and even received Merit. What could Merit do? As mentioned before, it could raise one's cultivation.

In terms of sheer amount, Yuan Tian probably had the most Merit in the Primordial Wilderness. His Merit grew every day, after all. But he never used it to improve his cultivation.

Luohou was not as foolish as Yuan Tian. The moment he received Merit, he eagerly went into seclusion to raise his cultivation. Nothing mattered more to him, and now that he had a chance to grow stronger, everything else could wait.

As for the Devil Cult he had just "founded," Luohou irresponsibly dumped it on a few subordinates. Wasn't that what subordinates were for? That was how he saw it.

Luohou gained a great deal from this seclusion. With Merit's help, he raised his cultivation to Late-Stage Quasi-Sage in one leap and consolidated it there. He became the strongest cultivator in the Primordial Wilderness, one step closer to the path of a Sage. For Luohou, it was certainly cause for celebration. For Yuan Tian and the Qilin Clan, perhaps not.

Of course, Luohou had already been the strongest cultivator in the Primordial Wilderness before this breakthrough.

It was worth taking a moment to look at the cultivation levels of the top experts of that time.

Luohou, of course, was a Late-Stage Quasi-Sage and ranked first. Next came Hongjun, whose cultivation was roughly that of someone who had just reached Peak Mid-Stage Quasi-Sage. Luohou had also been at that level before his breakthrough, though he had reached it before Hongjun. Now a real gap had opened between them.

After them came the ancestors of the Dragon-Phoenix-Qilin Tribes, all of whom had only recently entered Mid-Stage Quasi-Sage. There were differences among the three: Ancestral Dragon was the strongest,
