Asura Realm Wu Jian

Wu Jian sat in the middle of the cultivation zone with his legs crossed, hands forming a seal as he began circulating his chi. He took several deep breaths. In. Out. In. Out.

The battle with Sǐwáng Hou had forced Wu Jian to push past his limits. He had exhausted all his chi in that battle, and then he had dredged up even more than he should have been able to use for that last push.

Wu Jian knew he was lucky. Exceeding his limits like that could have resulted in a sequelae, but instead, it had given him the push he needed to finally break through his bottleneck. He had been unable to break through the last time because the battle of him against Hou Jingshu, Zheng Yawen, and Wu Yong had not been a true life and death battle that forced him to his limits.

Things were different now.
