Time waited for no man.
In September 1234 of the Ziyun era, Zhou Donghuang had left the Ziyun planet and finally arrived at the Hengliu galaxy. He entered the Autumn Valley of the Lightning Sword Sect.
In September 1237 of the Ziyun era, Zhou Donghuang took part in the Alliance Hunt of the Hengliu galaxy, and three months later, which was December 1237 of the Ziyun era, he successfully won the Alliance Hunt.
In the blink of an eye, it was now the end of the year 1238 of the Ziyun era.
At this point, it had been more than half a year since Liu Pingsheng had left, and Zhou Donghuang had also been training in isolation for a full six months.
In the six months, with the help of the Qi-Gathering formation produced using his spirit stones and the Divine Dharma technique, Zhou Donghuang finally reached the Primordial Soul stage successfully... of course, it was not the Primordial Soul stage recognized by the Lord of the Four Supremes.
