Even if Xu Qing could spar with a master like Zhou Di every single day, it would still take decades of constant tempering to eliminate the side effects of the Devouring Demon Technique.
Unless.
Unless Xu Qing could undergo the tempering of life-and-death battles and attain enlightenment on the brink of death. That would drastically shorten the time needed to get rid of the side effects.
Obviously.
That was impossible.
Attaining enlightenment in a life-or-death situation.
The slightest mistake would lead to true death. It was far too dangerous, and the side effects of the Devouring Demon Technique were already perilous enough.
Therefore.
It was much safer and faster to honestly level up and cultivate.
It was best to avoid such shortcuts.
"You are indeed very strong."
