After reviewing current affairs and major world events, Wei Yuan looked once more inside Qingming. First was the cultivators of the Taichu Palace.
Zhang Sheng and Bao Yun were both in closed cultivation. Zhang Sheng was still nurturing sword spirits for over five hundred Immortal Swords, and had only completed half of them. Fortunately, the Heaven Rank and Earth Rank sword spirits had already been nurtured, leaving only the Human Rank ones which would take a bit less time. Bao Yun, on the other hand, was consolidating her Dharma Image. Her powerful and bizarre Heavenly Demon Miao Xiang required much more time than usual.
Also in closed cultivation were Ji Liuli and Feng Tingyu. Their Dharma Images were also Immortal Phases, requiring a substantial amount of time to consolidate before they could advance into the Transformation Realm.
