The large, ancient hall was the same as it had been in the past. Those giant prayer mats remained in the same positions as they had for trillions of years.
Ning materialized out of nowhere within this main hall. He instantly saw an old black bull and a giant yellow bear, and he hurriedly said with respect, "Ji Ning greets you two, seniors."
"Late Wanxiang stage?" The giant yellow bear nodded slightly. "You've improved quite quickly as a Ki Refiner, but you have only reached the ninth stage as a Fiendgod. You are a bit slower."
"Already at the Wanxiang level?" The old black bull was quite surprised. He looked at Ning. "Ji Ning, kiddo, it seems as though you are already much more powerful than our fourth master, Rampart. Rampart died at the Wanxiang level, you know."
Ning just grinned. As for the giant yellow bear, he nodded. "Ji Ning is naturally much more powerful than Rampart; his talent is comparable to a reincarnated Immortal's."
