Ling Yishan nodded and said, "So it seems. After remolding my Dao Foundation, my cultivation has recovered, and my lifespan has increased significantly... This time, it seems you won't outlive me. It will be my turn to send you off."
"..."
Sun Chongli pouted, "Don't speak too soon. Perhaps once I've broken this grand array, I may ascend directly to the Ultimate Venerable by proving the Dao through the array..."
"Let's hope so." Ling Yishan smiled without retorting, then asked, "By the way, how is the progress in breaking the Eightfold Exorcism Array?"
Sun Chongli restrained his expression and said solemnly, "Thanks to Mr. Chen, who provided the array guide, it helped us pinpoint the position of the Array Hub, which significantly reduced the difficulty of breaking it. We've now dismantled the seventh layer of the array; only the last step remains..."
As they spoke, they walked over to the sand table.
