A large amount of Spiritual Qi surged, gathering into a small vortex, pouring downward.

The cultivators discussed amongst themselves, their expressions full of emotion. They did not disturb him but waited collectively for Zhang Yao to emerge.

Zhang Yao sat cross-legged, breathing deeply, completing the final step of his breakthrough.
