An unforeseen event

Shi Changxiao had already decided that he'd flee once he had gotten his hands on the Mystic Core. His cultivation level had already reached the peak of Spirit Mystic realm several years ago, but there hadn't been any progress ever since. However, he could attack the next bottleneck with the help of this Mystic Core, and could then reach new and insurmountable heights!

Shi Changxiao was confident that he would become capable of waging and winning a battle against Mo Wen Tian after he had succeeded in expanding his Mystic Qi further, and was sure that he could even challenge Li Juetian thereafter, which meant that he would rise up in the list of the 'Eight Great Masters'!

If he was successful in defeating Li Juetian, then his name would be spoken in the same breath as Yun Beichen!

He'd be at the peak of the world!
