Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a year had passed.
Zhao Rui had successfully refined his Power, systematically sorting through his once-disordered Divine Techniques.
During this time, he rarely returned to the secular world, living in near-total seclusion.
Now that his work was complete, he naturally felt a yearning for the mortal realm.
With a jolt of his True Qi, he shook off the dust that had accumulated over the past year. In a flash, his body vanished from the mountaintop.
The Qingcheng Mountain Range stretched on, vast and unending!
The moment Zhao Rui appeared, he caught the attention of the few Mountain Guardian Beasts. They shot out from the mountain ravines, moving like soaring dragons and leaping tigers, circling him and roaring incessantly.
"Haha, you've all learned your lesson. You're actually acting like proper Mountain Guardian Beasts now."
Zhao Rui couldn't help but laugh as he looked at Chi Hu and the other top-tier Exotic Beasts.
