During dinner, it was only Xiang Yu and Elder Guo. Elder Huang and Li Yao were still busy as always. They chatted casually as they ate, with Elder Guo sharing stories and cultivation insights while Xiang Yu listened attentively, occasionally asking questions.
When he returned to the spirit vein, Xiang Yu removed his robes and stepped into the spirit spring, feeling the spiritual energy immediately begin to permeate his skin.
"This time, I'll push myself twice as long as yesterday," he thought. His eyes drifted to the two hundred eighth-grade healing pills he had refined earlier. "I've prepared properly. Tonight, I'm really going all out."
Xiang Yu took several deep breaths, clearing his mind and steadying his nerves. The anticipation of what was to come sent a shiver down his spine. After one final moment of preparation, he released his control over the bloodlines within him.
