Zhou Xing wasn't asleep yet. He was currently in his courtyard performing the Standing Pile, gathering his Qi and Blood as he built up power for a breakthrough.
Yes, he wanted to break through.
...More than ever before!
His helplessness over the past two days made him realize that his current cultivation was falling behind. Only by breaking through to Anjin as soon as possible could he regain some measure of control.
So he planned to make some adjustments and then begin his third attempt at a breakthrough...
'How on earth did Junior Brother do it? It's only been a little over half a year since he started cultivating, yet he's already reached Anjin...'
'Doesn't he face any bottlenecks?'
At this thought, Zhou Xing could only feel a sense of resignation.
But just as his mind wandered while he held his Standing Pile stance, building power for his breakthrough, a frantic pounding suddenly erupted from his courtyard gate.
