"Whew..."
After nearly three days of secluded cultivation inside the Dragon-Trapping Tower, Xu Taiping opened his eyes and let out a long breath of stale air that had accumulated in his chest.
Then he looked inward at his Golden Core once more.
Within his Golden Core, five Azure Luans soared above the towering Snow Mountain manifested from True Essence.
These five Azure Luans had manifested from the five strands of Dao Essence Xu Taiping had tempered.
Xu Taiping immediately withdrew his inward gaze, the corners of his lips rising slightly as he said:
"In less than three days, I tempered five strands of Dao Essence from that fragmentary Xingtian divine intent. My chances of dealing with the final Xingtian Divine Intent should increase by at least another ten percent."
At this thought, Xu Taiping felt considerably more at ease.

"Xu Taiping, how did the tempering go?"
Xu Taiping immediately stood up and said:
"Immortal Elder, come in and talk."
Immortal Elder Wuji pushed the door open and entered, looking at Xu Taiping with a smile.
"Judging by your expression, you must have had some success?"
Xu Taiping smiled.
"Nothing gets past you, Immortal Elder."
Immortal Elder Wuji immediately asked:
"How many strands of Dao Essence did you temper?"
Xu Taiping spread his hand and said:
"Five strands in all."
Immortal Elder Wuji's eyes immediately lit up, his face full of excitement.
"With five strands of Dao Essence, together with Yundaozi's seal, you should be able to deal with that Xingtian Divine Intent this time even without my help."
Over the past two days, Immortal Elder Wuji had learned the full details of Yundaozi's seal
