Xu Qingxiao slowly opened his eyes.

During this time, he had read all of Sage Zhu's books and grasped many truths. His state of mind had also improved enormously.

Supreme and unsurpassed.

The more Xu Qingxiao learned, the more he understood why the people of the world revered Sages.

As for why First Rank experts like Wu Ming said Sages were not that powerful, it was mainly because people did not understand them. Sages had rarely taken action, and even when they did, it was to vanquish demons.

Naturally, people believed that Sages enjoyed the favor of Heaven and Earth and held absolute supremacy when it came to vanquishing demons.

The Pill Deity Ancient Scripture sounded rather disgruntled.

"How long was I in meditative absorption?"

Xu Qingxiao looked at the Pill Deity Ancient Scripture as he spoke.

"About a month, all told."
