บท 1828: Staying Behind

Yan Yating stared in awe at the tumultuous aura that fell from heaven, directly onto the Dragon Emperor. He watched as the Dragon Emperor pulled himself out of the rubble and sat down to cultivate in the aura.

"Did he… did he do it?" he asked, somewhat unsure about the current situation. He had never seen or read about any Immortal breakthroughs, so he was unclear on a few of its aspects.

"He did it," one of Alex's elders who were standing next to him said.

Yan Yating turned around to see that it was Ren Guanting who had spoken. "Is this it then?" he asked. "Is he an Immortal now?" 

"Pretty much," she said. "He has entered the Immortal realm. All he has to do now is cultivate for a few more minutes to gain back all the Qi he expended while breaking through."

Her words were a grim reminder of the truth of the situation for anyone who hoped it to be something else.
