A millennium passed in the blink of an eye.
Ao Jiugai's body had grown a hundred zhang in size, providing ten portions of Original Divine Qi, of which Li Cheng used seven, and together with refining King Grade True God Pills, his cultivation had reached Complete True God a hundred years ago.
He was only a step away from entering the Divine Monarch Realm.
The remaining three portions of Original Divine Qi were naturally prepared for Yin Yue, Duan Shuiliu, and Ao Qing.
After emerging from seclusion, he saw that the Blunt Empty Residence had already expanded to cover two hundred li. Ao Jiugai was, as always, gnawing at the edges of the Chaos zone, but hadn't unearthed anything in the past millennium.
Ao Qing was still in slumber, taking longer to awaken than Li Cheng anticipated, yet her aura was several times stronger than it had been a thousand years ago, and it seemed she was at a critical moment.
