Time slipped past like a shuttle, and time flew like an arrow-no expressions could better describe the years immortal cultivators spent cultivating.
Ever since Li Xiaoya had unleashed his might in the Enchanted Mountain Range, killing more than a dozen Golden Core Stage cultivators from the Fire Dragon Palace and even defeating a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, his reputation on the Great Illusion Continent had become no less impressive than on the Origin Continent. His past exploits at Spiritlight Lake, the Southwestern Ancient City, and the Demon-Sealing Mountain Range gradually came to light as well. But people merely repeated what others said, and the stories strayed a hundred and eight thousand miles from the truth. With every retelling, they grew more exaggerated, until Li Xiaoya was practically described as an immortal reincarnated into the mortal world.

People said that, having killed so many of their cultivators, he feared their revenge and was hiding on Divine Path Mountain to cultivate. Some even claimed that the Fire Dragon Palace cultivators had already killed him.
