Reunion

'Now that that's over, I should go ahead and check out how my disciples are doing!' Ling Tian said with a slight smile.

He peered into the Extremity Pagoda with his divine sense and noticed that all of them had massive breakthrough sprees.

Xun Luoyang already reached the peak of Core Formation after absorbing the massive amounts of dense powerful blood qi that was released from the powerful experts he slain.

Yang Kai also reached the peak of Core Formation after absorbing the massive ball of fire that held an abundant amount of Pure Yang that was perfect for Yang Kai.

Gu Fang reached the 8th stage of Core Formation and not the peak because he split his time into cultivating and studying the poison arts. He was only one stage off because he also absorbed the Immortal Grass that basically gave him an undying body when applied to his Death Emperor Body physique.

Bai Feng reached the peak of Nascent Soul after he absorbed the gigantic iceberg with grueling efforts that even caused his skin to break and be reborn.

Gui Di, the assassin disciple, reached the the 7th stage of False Immortal, he only broke through two stages because the higher cultivation you're at, the slower it gets.

All of their attributes such as weapon intent realms, Dao, battle sense, skills, techniques, and more drastically increased in every way.

Ling Tian planned to have the weaker disciples catch up to Gui Di and then have them work together and even fight in a formation to be one of the strongest people in the future.

But first, he would need to change how time worked in the Extremity Pagoda. They were still inside the pagoda at the moment, so he announced to them his thoughts.

"My hardworking disciples, I have a big announcement for you all. I will be closing the realms you guys are in after one day. Finish what you were doing before and gather together." Ling Tian said with a loud voice that caught everyone's attention in their respective training realms.

After one day, all the disciples were teleported around the same area and they all gathered together at once.

"I am going to change the time ratios to have all of you guys reach around the same cultivation realm. The goal is to at least reach the 5th stage of the False Immortal realm. It may seem like a grueling task, however, I will provide you all rare cultivation resources that are beyond this world. I will bend the laws of this world and make you all age slower and suit the training realms to your need. As for Gui Di, since he's already at the 7th stage of False Immortal, I will pause time for his body so he doesn't get ahead anymore. Bai Feng shall have a faster ratio of time since he's a whole realm above the rest of you, besides Gui Di." Ling Tian explained further.

"Master, will we really be able to reach the 5th stage of False Immortal realm with just those? I mean, we need to fight, cultivate, reach enlightenment, understand the Dao further, and more! Can we really do all this?" Bai Feng dreadfully asked with wide eyes at the mountainous task.

"Do not underestimate me. These cultivation resources are not your typical things you would see everyday, they include the Holy Buddha Lotus, Nine Enlightenment Ginseng, Sacred Dragon Herb, and more! All of them, including the improved training realms that has dense enlightenment qi scattered around to increase your understanding and improve cultivation speeds!" Ling Tian grinned.

"Master, is there another purpose?" Gu Fang intelligently asked, he felt something was up.

"Good question, Gu Fang. Yes, there is another purpose after all this. At the end, you all are going to work together as a team and complete various difficult missions that require the upmost teamwork and smarts. Of course, there will be separate individual missions that you all have to complete on your own." Ling Tian explained.

"Alright, I won't be too difficult on you all, you may all get a week's time of rest outside the Extremity Pagoda before suffering extreme training regimens!"

"Thank you, Master!" All of them said at the same time.

They were all tired of fighting and cultivating constantly in the Extremity Pagoda after so long. Even just one day was tiring. Before, they were excited and fired up to train in the pagoda but afterwards, they realized it wasn't all that great, even though they were getting stronger at breakneck speeds.

"Before you go, I will give you all only one life-saving talisman and that's it. If you die, that's your fault of being too weak and not smart enough. I'm already nice by giving you a life-saving talisman that can save you from anyone. Only Gui Di is going to the Immortal Yuan Continent since he has a high enough cultivation and he was born there." After saying that, Ling Tian sent them all out of the Extremity Pagoda to a random location in their respective star.
