Zhu Ximen himself was a genius among the younger generation. During the time they had been apart, he had successfully broken through to the fifth level of the Qi Sea Realm and risen to the rank of True Disciple.
Such progress was already considered extremely fast, and deep down, he had even believed he was beginning to catch up to Li Yun.
Now he realized how laughably mistaken that thought had been.
The instant he saw Li Yun, he had instinctively tried to sense the depth of Li Yun's current cultivation. Yet with his own fifth-level Qi Sea Realm strength, he could not perceive anything at all.
Li Yun felt like a bottomless abyss.
Unwilling to accept it, Zhu Ximen focused harder and finally caught the faintest trace of qi that Li Yun had unintentionally allowed to leak out.
That tiny trace of energy struck Zhu Ximen's senses like a divine mountain crashing into his soul.
