Getting Stronger By Fighting

As time ticked by, minute by minute.

In the blink of an eye.

It was already half a year later.

And Wang Zhan and the others had spent a full half a year amidst these ruins.

Suddenly, with a loud bang, Wang Zhan and the others instantly opened their eyes, and beside them, the body of the Hexagonal Golden Snake emitted a bizarre light that soared into the sky, instantly tearing apart the entire ruins.

It must be said, the power of the Hexagonal Golden Snake was truly terrifying.

Now it directly tore the space apart...

Even Wang Zhan and his group combined couldn’t face the Hexagonal Golden Snake.

The others were also awakened by the commotion. During this time, Wang Zhan and the others had gradually awakened but made no moves, because it was the Hexagonal Golden Snake that had sealed off this space. If they wanted to leave, it required the Hexagonal Golden Snake’s help, and now, as the Hexagonal Golden Snake was still in retreat, they could only wait quietly.

Time cannot be wasted like this; they must do something meaningful, so they kept doing cultivation to enhance their strength.

But now it was good, the Hexagonal Golden Snake had burst out of the ground, eliminating all worries.

They now had a formidable ally, which made Wang Zhan feel relieved. Even if facing the Dragon Clan, Wang Zhan had no worry at all, as the presence of the Hexagonal Golden Snake had significantly bolstered their overall strength.

"To think, during this healing time, the Hexagonal Golden Snake’s strength has once again increased, far beyond any comparison to mine. If I could reach his level, it would do justice to our Qilin clan’s name!"

The Fire Qilin spoke lightly.

"Unfortunately, there’s such a great gulf between me and the Hexagonal Golden Snake, like a chasm. Crossing this chasm would surely take me decades; otherwise, I absolutely can’t keep up with the Hexagonal Golden Snake’s pace, it’s truly regrettable..."

The Sword Spirit next to him just smiled but said nothing.

Wang Zhan walked to the side of the Fire Qilin, patted his shoulder, and comforted him: "Back when you followed me, you were just a little boy hiding in my arms. In just a few years, your power has advanced to this level, showing your terrifying prowess. With the Qilin Bloodline in your body, your cultivation speed is surely faster than most of us. You shouldn’t worry too much about it, I believe you will soon overtake the Hexagonal Golden Snake."

"Also, understand one thing, the Hexagonal Golden Snake is much older than you are, so there is no direct comparison between you two. His starting point is much quicker than yours, so don’t compare yourself to him, just focus on what you need to do."

Of course, Wang Zhan was worried about the Fire Qilin’s physical condition, and any psychological changes could impact the Fire Qilin immensely.

After reaching Wang Zhan’s level of strength, he gradually understood one thing, everything must go with the flow, and maintaining a good state of mind is crucial. If one’s mind isn’t stable, it would lead to many troubles, potentially causing stagnation in cultivation, which has no benefit at all.

Xiang Tian is experiencing this very issue, his strong sense of competitiveness brings advantages, ensuring he doesn’t stagnate, constantly pushing himself beyond those around him, but it also causes significant troubles.

He not only inherited the violent temper of the White Tiger Venerable but was willing to sacrifice his life for strength enhancement. Without Wang Zhan’s assistance, Xiang Tian would have been dead long ago, unable to be standing here.

The Fire Qilin revealed a slight smile, saying: "Don’t worry; nothing in the world can change my character nor my mindset. Even if I’m not a match for the Hexagonal Golden Snake now, our Qilin Clan stands unmatched in the Beast Domain, above the Dragon Clan. You must have heard the Dragon Clan is one of the four Sacred Beasts, but above them is our Qilin!"

The Fire Qilin was not boasting.

The Qilin Clan undoubtedly possessed a noble and supreme bloodline, granting them a natural advantage, evident in the rapid advancement of the Fire Qilin’s strength in such a short time, which indeed is shockingly impressive.

Even Wang Zhan found himself awed, the Fire Qilin’s prowess far exceeded his expectations.

Yet the gap between the Hexagonal Golden Snake and the Dragon Clan remains significant, prompting the Snake to enhance his strength, even braving the potentially fatal Heavenly Tribulation in hopes of becoming a dragon!

But even if he becomes part of the Dragon Clan, there remains a gap with the Fire Qilin.

Sacred Beast above Sacred Beast.

The Fire Qilin’s bloodline supremacy can profoundly impact the Hexagonal Golden Snake.

However, Wang Zhan and the Hexagonal Golden Snake have become friends, so they won’t have a conflict, there’s nothing to worry about.

Meanwhile, the Sword Spirit stepped forward, saying: "Have you noticed Xiang Tian is missing? Before our retreat, Xiang Tian was always with us, and now he’s suddenly gone? Even after checking this space thoroughly, his presence remains untraceable. Could he have left on his own?"

But this speculation was quickly dismissed.

The barrier around this ruins was created by the Hexagonal Golden Snake, and even the Fire Qilin and Sword Spirit couldn’t break it easily. Any attempt to face the ruins would require significant effort.

Although the Fire Qilin and Sword Spirit are strong, their abilities don’t compare to Xiang Tian’s. How could he possibly leave here easily?

Could it be...

Wang Zhan’s expression changed dramatically, his gaze became much more serious, as he bit his teeth and spoke word by word: "Could Xiang Tian be in trouble? I warned him several times not to wander these ruins, in case he encountered something he couldn’t handle, risking his life unnecessarily. Staying with us to enhance cultivation is surely important?"

The Sword Spirit nearby squinted slightly but said nothing.

Wang Zhan’s relationship with Xiang Tian is excellent, allowing him to reprimand Xiang Tian.

But their bond with Xiang Tian was only friendship, so naturally, they wouldn’t comment much.

Zhao Feiyu approached, smiling as he spoke: "Now that the Hexagonal Golden Snake is gradually recovering, we just need to wait for it to emerge from retreat, then ask about Xiang Tian, and everything will be resolved, right?"

"So no need to worry, this entire space is under the Hexagonal Golden Snake’s control, it’s perfectly safe, Xiang Tian likely wouldn’t encounter any danger."

Though Zhao Feiyu said so, Wang Zhan remained concerned.

After all, Wang Zhan and Xiang Tian are life-and-death brothers, so he naturally doesn’t want Xiang Tian to face troubles.

For now, all he can do is wait for the Hexagonal Golden Snake to emerge, then get some information.

Given the Hexagonal Golden Snake has merged with the ruins, he could easily sense any changes within, finding someone wouldn’t be a difficult task.

In an instant, the Hexagonal Golden Snake slowly opened its eyes, simultaneously retracting its aura.

Now, they don’t need its help to open the ruins, Wang Zhan and the others can leave on their own.

Because, when the Hexagonal Golden Snake erupted its aura, it instantly broke the barrier of the ruins!

Wang Zhan and the others could leave through this gap without worrying about anything.

But they weren’t eager to return to Sky Pavilion quickly, they wanted to reunite with their companions.

Wang Zhan fixed his gaze on the Hexagonal Golden Snake, and asked directly: "Please check the surroundings, since awakening, I’ve gotten no news of Xiang Tian, and the Sword Spirit has searched thoroughly, yet found no trace of him here. Now we need your help to find my friend!"

Wang Zhan and Xiang Tian’s relationship is strong.

He couldn’t tolerate Xiang Tian getting into trouble.

The Hexagonal Golden Snake nodded, still grateful to Wang Zhan for saving him; without Wang Zhan’s help, the Snake would have perished against the Thunder Tribulation, unable to withstand it.

There’s no way it would stand steadfastly here if the Hexagonal Golden Snake hadn’t survived by Wang Zhan’s intervention.

Then the Hexagonal Golden Snake slowly closed its eyes again.

Clearly, it began searching for Xiang Tian’s traces.
