Even with the most basic form of true essence, Luis's true vortex essence was far superior in quality to that of a late-stage foundation-building cultivator.
And that didn't even account for the added strength he gained from his ancient body-building technique.
For various reasons, Luis had now reached the level of a half-step Gold Core cultivator.
As he reflected on this, a Zhou family cultivator approached, trotting briskly. The man bowed respectfully and said, "Senior Luis, your seat is over there."
This Zhou family member, an early-stage foundation-building cultivator, had addressed him as "Senior."
Luis understood that this change in how others treated him was solely due to his strength.
If he were still just an early-stage foundation-building cultivator, he would be no different from the rest of the cultivators in the hall. He certainly wouldn't have been invited to sit on the high platform in the main hall.
