Finally, with one last sigh of unwillingness, the last bit of black qi dissipated.
Chen Yan did not step forward immediately. He watched quietly as the black qi completely dissipated, then nodded and said softly, "Your talent is indeed remarkable. In this world, you were able to cultivate to the Ascension Realm and even reach the stage of breaking the tribulation with such an incomplete Cultivation Technique. This kind of talent is truly astonishing."
He stood still, his fingers shooting out two Finger Swords at the tree trunk. Though there was no visible movement, he patiently waited for a full ten minutes.
Finally, Chen Yan slowly walked to the tree trunk, reaching out his hand. A [Six Yang Righteous Qi Talisman] was imbued with Primordial Qi and hit the tree trunk!
This time, a flash of golden light flickered and disappeared, but the tree trunk had no reaction.
Only then did Chen Yan confirm: this unknown old ghost cultivator was finally gone.
