Lin Wu, who was unaware of all the happenings in the forest, continued to feel the increase in his power. The second Nascent Soul was now at the cusp of reaching the same level as that of the first one and would soon break through to the Adolescent Soul stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
While he could see the pillar of light that his body was releasing into the sky, he didn't care as much about the backlash. He now knew that he didn't really have much to fear in the forest.
Having spent time with the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle and witnessing the powers of stronger beings had allowed him to estimate his own power. Even the Aqua Dream Sea Lotus which was at the Dao Treading realm, was held back by the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle despite being weaker than it.
Lin Wu had been comparing himself to either very strong beasts or beasts that had powerful bloodlines like the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle. Having learned all that, he now knew where he stood.
