— A few days later, aboard Wei Chen's Flying Ark —
Within the flying ark's cultivation chamber, Wei Chen cultivated peacefully after buying a set of Underworld Qi Pills. He could already feel himself touching the threshold of the Soul Transformation Realm.
The silver-like membrane preventing him from advancing further could be brute-forced open, but he chose not to. This was not one of those life-and-death scenarios where a protagonist gets his ass kicked and needs to break through mid-fight, leaving a permanent flaw in his otherwise flawless cultivation and spending 200+ chapters fixing the damage afterward.
He was not that type of guy.
Plus, he was not some hot-blooded protagonist who would charge forward despite lacking the cultivation to match his opponent.
One might ask, what if the situation forces you to move forward, you idiot!? Are you going to let things get worse or run away like a coward!?
Of course not. Why would he do that?
