Lin Mu sat down on one of the sofas that were placed in the room and began his story.

"After escaping from Gu Yao, I knew that returning was not gonna be an option for a while. At least until I was strong enough to fight him again. I thus went beyond the northern forest, all the way into the northern mountains.

There I cultivated in seclusion until I reached the peak of the core condensation realm. I reached a bottleneck and thus need to wait for the heavenly tribulation before I can continue forward.

I knew that the longer I waited the more dangerous the situation would get and thus finally decided to return. Thankfully, during that time I also experienced a growth spurt and my appearance changed enough that no one recognizes me now." Lin Mu spoke.

Wu Hei felt dumbstruck at his words.

'Reaching the peak stages of the core condensation realm in two years? That too from the peak stages of the Qi refining realm? Is this a joke?!' Wu Hei thought.

But the reality proved him otherwise. Wu Hei could clearly sense the faint spirit Qi fluctuations that were coming from Lin Mu and knew for sure that the man was at the peak of the core condensation realm.

'Wait… how old is this kid? Back then he was barely sixteen and now a little above eighteen?' Wu Hei wondered.

He couldn't help but compare Lin Mu with the other young geniuses of the Great Zhou empire. The crown prince was said to be the youngest person to have reached the core condensation realm at the age of twenty.

Sure, there were geniuses in the top sects that were able to do the same at an even younger age, but there was no one like Lin Mu. Not only had he broken through to the core condensation realm, but had also reached the peak and was now literally only restricted due to the heavenly tribulation.

Wu Hei had no doubt that if the tribulation came right now, Lin Mu would come out on top to become a Nascent Soul realm cultivator. This was a terrifying thought that even he did not dare to think of.

He couldn't help but remember the fact that Lin Mu's master was someone that was beyond the Immortal Ascension realm.
