Outside the Dongfu:
Peng Yue Xian, Master Cang'er, Fairy Lichen, and other Foundation Establishment Cultivators waited for half a day, but the door remained tightly closed.
"Why hasn't he come out yet? It's been several hours."
"He must still be adjusting his magical power, let's wait a little longer."
The Foundation Establishment Cultivators exchanged a few words and patiently continued to wait.
Fortunately, they didn't have to wait much longer this time. As the array deactivated, the Dongfu's door opened with a rumble, and Zhang Yao emerged in his Daoist robe.
"The Association Leader has come out of seclusion!"
"Congratulations to the Association Leader on his cultivation advancement and significant increase in strength!"
"Congratulations to the Association Leader on another step forward in the Immortal Dao."
