"Daddy, you finally woke up."
The three Phoenix sisters immediately rushed over, cheering and jumping for joy.
Siti and Yaoyue also breathed a sigh of relief and also came close to Shachen.
Shachen smiled slightly, "How long has this retreat been?"
Bai Luan said, "Father, it's one year, three months, and seven days in total."
Shachen nodded. He didn't expect that this retreat would last so long. He was also glad that Yuanshi Tianzun did not appear again during this period.
"Do you know what has happened in the world during this period of time?" Shachen couldn't help but ask.
Several people shook their heads. They were all practicing in seclusion in the cave in Liusha River and had no intention of caring about the world affairs.
Shachen nodded again. If they didn’t know, that would be the best, as it would prove that they hadn’t left.
What happens outside is actually not important to them because it does not affect them.
Shachen took another look, and the eyes of the three Phoenix sisters lit up. "When did you achieve a breakthrough in your cultivation? You've actually reached the mid-level Quasi-Saint realm. Congratulations."
The Phoenix sisters finally received praise from Shachen and were extremely happy.
They were filled with excitement and joy, transforming into phoenixes once again, circling overhead before dropping back to the earth.
Qingluan said, "In fact, we broke through half a year ago. During this time, we have been consolidating our cultivation, improving our realm, and honing our magical powers and mana."
Bai Luan said, "Our strength is now incomparable to what it was before. Moreover, we have developed a Three Elements Phoenix Formation during this period of time. When we work together, we can unleash the power of a high-level Quasi-Saint."
The three sisters are all in the cautious intermediate realm, and they are also phoenixes. Their combat power is higher than that of strong people in the same realm.
And they also developed the Three Elements Phoenix Formation, and the power they could unleash by working together was naturally enough to contend with ordinary high-level quasi-saints.
Siti nodded and said, "I fought against the three sisters and found that their strength has indeed improved greatly. They can now fight me on equal terms."
Shachen was also very happy that the three sisters had made such great progress. For the first time ever, he praised them again, which made them very happy.
Then he looked at Siti again and said, "It seems that you have already overcome your inner demons. Although your magic power is still at the high level of Quasi-Saint, your soul has been able to transform into substance, surpassing the ordinary Quasi-Saint."
Si Ti smiled and said, "This is all thanks to you. If you hadn't led me to fight against Yuanshi Tianzun, I wouldn't have the confidence to fight against the saint."
"Although I was defeated in my fight with the Saint, over the past year or so, I have been constantly pondering, thinking, and researching, and I have discovered that Saints are nothing special."
Sha Chen nodded in approval and said, "You're right. Saints really aren't that great. Take Yuanshi Tianzun for example. His cultivation has reached the peak of a saint, but he still can't be defeated. I can imagine that he's nothing special."
"Earlier, I fought against the Saint Zhunti, and I also rejected him. I was completely different from who I am now. If I were to fight the Saint Zhunti with my current level of cultivation, even outside of the Great Xinjiang, we would be evenly matched."
Stephen nodded heavily and said, "Thank you."
She was truly grateful, because without the sand and dust, she would probably tremble when she heard the name of Zhunti, let alone have the courage to face it.
Because of Shachen, who took her to fight with the saint, she understood a truth: the saint was not truly invincible, and she could still compete with the saint as a quasi-saint.
It also made her heart open up, clearing away her inner demons. After countless years of accumulation, her Yuan Shen energy finally became real.
"Master, I'm sorry, I haven't made a breakthrough yet."
When it was Yao Yue's turn, she was the first to apologize because in the past year and a half, her cultivation was still at the high-level Quasi-Saint realm, and she did not break through to the peak of Quasi-Saint because of enlightenment.
Sha Chen looked at her and smiled, "Although your cultivation hasn't yet reached a breakthrough, your state of mind, aura, and momentum are already far superior to what they were before."
"After all, it's not so easy to break through to the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm, and you don't have enough cultivation resources as a foundation. It's not that simple to break through."
Yao Yue pursed her lips. What Sha Chen said was exactly what she thought, and it was also the truth.
In fact, if she had enough resources for cultivation during this year or so, she would have achieved a breakthrough long ago.
Because she had fought a life-and-death battle with the saint, and also received the Three Pure Ones Taoism taught by Sha Chen, she had already comprehended it to the point of mastery, and then fought with the saint to improve her skills.
It can be said that practice and theory are perfectly combined, and her talent is not bad either. She has also been blessed with Shachen's peaches and ginseng fruits, as well as various rare treasures, which continuously improve her ceiling.
In this case, what she really lacked was laying the foundation. A tall building is built from the ground, and building a tall building also requires sand and soil.
She practiced in seclusion in the quicksand and caves, and had the concept of building a thousand-foot-high building, but she did not have the sand and stones to build it.
Sha Chen said, "I should have let you leave a long time ago, but Yuanshi Tianzun happened to arrive, which delayed your trip."
"Your cultivation has reached a bottleneck. As long as you have enough resources, you will be able to make further progress. I will not delay your future. From now on, you can leave."
Yao Yue immediately knelt down and kowtowed three times to Sha Chen.
She pursed her lips and said, "Master, I am grateful for your teachings and the Taoist teachings you have imparted to me. I am also fortunate to be able to follow you and fight against the saints. This is truly a blessing."
"I originally wanted to serve Master for my entire life, but now I must leave. When I achieve something, I will definitely return to repay Master's great kindness."
Shachen nodded, "Where do you want to go? I'll use my spatial ability to send you there."
Yao Yue was silent for a moment, then said, "Let's go overseas. The Journey to the West catastrophe has arrived, and the Three Realms and Six Paths have all been blocked by the Heavenly Dao. Overseas is the most chaotic place."
"The more chaotic the place, the more opportunities there are. I plan to try my luck."
Sha Chen said, "This Journey to the West catastrophe may seem like a Buddhist catastrophe, but after my calculations, I found that this catastrophe is not much worse than the Conferred Gods catastrophe, so you must be extremely careful."
Yao Yue clasped her fists and agreed, then Shachen constructed a space channel and sent her overseas.
Stephen said, "It might be dangerous for her to go overseas. The Saint must already know that she has joined you. If she goes to a lawless place overseas, the Saint might personally take action to capture her."
Shachen said, "I understand, but flowers in a greenhouse are always beautiful but not useful."
