After Nüwa left, the Sun Star fell silent once more.
Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Dijun each severed another corpse in succession and broke through to the mid Quasi-Saint stage. In high spirits, they emerged from seclusion and began putting Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiao Sisters through their training again.
Although Eastern Emperor Taiyi worked Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiao Sisters so hard that they never had a moment's rest, their cultivation soared by the day.
They broke straight through from the Profound Immortal realm to Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and even Great Luo Golden Immortal was now within arm's reach.
After all, only a few thousand years had passed since the four of them became Daochen's disciples.
Yet they had leaped straight from Celestial Immortal to Peak Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
Even disciples of the Three Pure Ones would have found such speed far beyond their reach.
Besides Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Dijun's attentive instruction, this progress was inseparable from Daochen's endless supply of Ginseng Fruit, Immortal Apricot, and Fusang Fruit from three supreme xiantian spiritual roots, as though they cost him nothing.
Especially after Daochen assembled the Innate Five Elements Formation and converted the ceaseless flow of spiritual energy from heaven and earth into chaos spirit, Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiao Sisters' understanding of the Great Dao grew by leaps and bounds each day.
At this rate, given another few hundred thousand years, all four could enter the Quasi-Saint realm before the Investiture of the Gods Calamity arrived. They might even attain the heights Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Dijun had reached.
Seeing their cultivation grow more in a few short millennia than it had through tens of thousands of years of arduous cultivation, Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiao Sisters' gratitude toward Daochen reached immeasurable depths.
