Having people watch you comprehend the Dao was like having people watch you bathe.
It was as awkward as could be!
He Pingsheng kept up this pretense of comprehending for about a month before he simply could not stand it anymore!
He sprang to his feet.
"What are you doing?"
"Where are you going?"
The moment He Pingsheng stood up, the witch and another Dao Lord beside him hurriedly questioned him.
He Pingsheng gave a wry smile. "Seniors!"
"Why don't you try having people stare at you while you comprehend the Dao?"
"With the nine of you sitting here, all eyes fixed on me as I comprehend the Dao, how could I possibly comprehend anything?"
"How about this? The ten of us will just sit here doing nothing from now on. You watch me, and I'll watch you!"
He Pingsheng sat right down in the void, neither comprehending the Dao nor doing anything else, and simply stared wide-eyed at the nine Dao Lords!
Now the nine of them could not stand it either.
"Fine, fine..." The old man was the first to wave his hand. "Stay here and comprehend, then. I'll be leaving!"
The others left one after another as well.
Once they had all disappeared from sight, He Pingsheng sat cross-legged on the ground again and began comprehending Daoist law.
Finding somewhere to hide and comprehend the Dao in this First Heaven was almost impossible.
The terrain here was so utterly flat that one glance took it all in. There was nowhere to hide.
Perhaps those people would still observe him secretly with their Divine Sense, but that was better than having them stare at him wide-eyed right beside him.
He Pingsheng deployed more than a dozen layers of seventh-grade formations in one go, then began comprehending the Dao.
