Lu Qing was at the nascent soul realm level two.
In fact, he could have reached this level long ago.
He had long since reached the great circle of the original infant stage level one and only needed a period of quiet cultivation to complete this breakthrough that was not considered a bottleneck.
However, the White ghouls heading south had indeed interrupted his plan.
After all, Chaohe, Yan Ling, and the others were planning to kill a peak golden elixir realm cultivator. Lu Qing was more or less worried. Hence, he had to put in some effort and keep an eye on the situation.
After that, he went to the ice field and obtained a new ancient series ability.
After that, he finally had the time to properly cultivate.
As expected, he completed this breakthrough in just two months of cultivation.
The whole process seemed to be quite smooth. He didn't encounter any other difficulties and passed it smoothly.
