In the following months, Sect Leader Jiang led a rarely regular life.
Every day in his Wise Palace, busy refining the Secret Void Holy Sand, enhancing his Profound Pattern Realm.
After spending a few days advancing to the Sixth Layer, he would visit the Descent Spirit Hall again to obtain a new Profound Pattern.
Gradually, this beca a cycle.
The stewards and the guard captain of the Descent Spirit Hall treated him like an old acquaintance upon seeing him.
The only thing that displeased him was that he had to die once every ti he obtained a new Profound Pattern.
Calculating for these 1000 Profound Patterns, he would have to die 999 tis.
However, compared to his massive number of resurrection counts, it was a trivial matter.
While he was joyfully advancing his Profound Patterns, the high-level officials of the Divine Hall were not quite at ease.
Five months had passed, yet the three Palace Masters sent out with their guardian stewards had almost searched the entire White Profound Race territory.
But they didn't find any trace of the 'Otherworldly Evil Demon'.
"Could it be that he has already left our White Profound Race?"
"Maybe he is imrsed in secluded training and doesn't intend to cause trouble?"
"If that's the case, that wouldn't be too bad."
"We can't let our guard down!"
The Great Hall Master couldn't be so optimistic.
"Enemies hidden in the shadows are the most terrifying!"
"Imagine a late-stage Quasi-Emperor who has comprehended the Profound Essence hiding in the shadows, isn't that hair-raising?"
"As long as we can't find his whereabouts, it's unsettling!"
The other Palace Masters all nodded in agreent.
The Divine Hall even entered the highest state of war readiness for a ti because of this.
Especially around the Wise Palace, where the most guards were specifically assigned, to prevent the 'peerless genius' from being the first to be hard.
Unfortunately, Brother Cheng was still oblivious to all this.
If he knew, he might find it all laughably absurd.
I am the demon they are searching for, how could I harm myself?
"By the way, how is Sage Jiang's cultivation going?"
Due to being busy dealing with the major issue of the Otherworldly Evil Demon, the Great Hall Master hadn't had ti to oversee Brother Cheng recently.
He only knew that he often went for Spirit Attachnt, but knew nothing else.
With Brother Cheng's status as a Great Sage, he could actually participate in the Divine Hall's conferences.
But he was so lazy about managing even the Feixian Sect's affairs before, let alone the Divine Hall, so he never attended.
And the other Palace Masters were happy to let it be so.
"Right, right, right, why not call him over and ask?"
"No..."
The Water Spirit Hall Master smiled and shook his head, "That's not good, in case we disturb the Great Sage's seclusion."
"It's better to call soone from the Wise Palace to ask."
Soon, Ren Hong, a protector from that side, was summoned.
"What realm is your Great Sage in now?"
"Has he reached the First Layer of the Extre Profound Realm?"
"First Layer? Fire Spirit Hall Master, who do you take him for? With Sage Jiang's talent, he should at least be in the Third Layer by now!"
"I wouldn't be surprised if he's reached the Fourth Layer. That young man must have kept it from us to give a surprise, right?"
"Hahaha, indeed, indeed..."
Seeing the hopeful eyes of the Palace Masters, Ren Hong almost didn't know how to begin.
"Well..."
"The Great Sage, he..."
The Great Hall Master's phoenix eyes slightly squinted, "What's wrong with him?"
The other Palace Masters were also panicking inside. Sage Jiang was currently the Divine Hall's greatest treasure; nothing could afford to happen to him.
"Did sothing happen to him?"
"Why didn't you report it sooner!"
The Palace Masters' tone suddenly beca stern.
Ren Hong quickly said, "He's fine, no injuries or illnesses, it's just his realm... still in the First Layer of the Extre Profound Realm."
"What?"
"Still the First Layer?" Everyone was imnsely shocked.
The Great Hall Master also found it extrely unbelievable, "With his talent, that's impossible!"
"Yeah, could you have made a mistake?"
Ren Hong said, "There couldn't be a mistake. He goes to the Descent Spirit Platform every other day, and I et him every ti he cos out."
The Extre Profound Realm couldn't hide its power level in front of him.
"How can this be?"
The Palace Masters couldn't comprehend it, the result was far from their expectations.
A slightly more talented individual in the Extre Profound Realm would have nearly advanced to the Second Layer in five months.
Moreover, Sage Jiang's talent was peerless, and he received the full support of the Divine Hall.
"Could his talent not be high after all, did we misjudge?"
"Impossible, the Purple Gold's Profound Pattern is right there, you and I saw it with our own eyes!"
"With such an advanced Profound Pattern, it shouldn't be like this..."
The Palace Masters discussed incessantly, and Ren Hong had to explain for Brother Cheng, "As far as I know, the Great Sage hasn't undertaken any Profound Power cultivation."
"He hasn't even collected his share of the Profound Origin Fruit and Profound Stone."
"So that's it!"
The Great Hall Master finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it's not a talent issue, neglecting cultivation is just a small problem.
"So how is his mastery of Profound Techniques?"
"I have never seen him practice Profound Techniques, and have never seen him use a Profound Artifact either."
"Then what is he busy with every day?"
Ren Hong replied honestly, "Spirit Attachnt."
The Earth Spirit Hall Master looked puzzled, "Spirit Attachnt at most takes two hours, what about the rest of the ti?"
"I don't know either."
Ren Hong said, "Besides Spirit Attachnt, he spends the rest of his ti in the quiet chamber deep in the Wise Palace and has instructed others not to approach."
"This..."
"He doesn't cultivate his Profound Power Realm, what does he do hiding in the quiet chamber every day?"
"He can't be sleeping, right?"
The Palace Masters frowned greatly.
The Water Spirit Hall Master looked full of worry, "Even a peerless genius would beco ordinary if neglected!"
"This can't go on!"
"We must make him diligent!"
The Great Hall Master couldn't remain seated any longer, and the whole group quickly rushed to the Wise Palace imposingly.
Upon checking his realm, indeed, it was still the First Layer of the Extre Profound Realm.
"Great Sage, this won't do!"
"Yes, how can you be so negligent in cultivation?"
"You can't rely on being a genius and be lazy..."
The sudden visit from the group of Palace Masters left Brother Cheng stunned.
All of you at the 'Immortal King Level', coming to teach , a Quasi-Emperor, how to cultivate?
This elder has indeed been quite lax about cultivation since starting out, preferring to lie down rather than stand.
But the thing is, this ti is different, he's been very diligent recently.
He's been in seclusion every day, refining the Secret Void Holy Sand, which is really hard work!
"Who says I haven't been cultivating?"
"Then why is your realm still at the First Layer of the Extre Profound Realm?"
"Too lazy to advance." Brother Cheng answered boldly.
If I advance the Profound Power Realm, and the mall's Profound Patterns turn grey and unpurchasable, I would regret too late, wouldn't I?
Even ti reversal wouldn't help then, as it retains his power level and realm.
Such a bold answer made the Great Hall Master infuriated for the first ti.
"You child, this is ridiculous!"
In her view, Brother Cheng was just a young person who didn't understand.
"You must train well from now on; I will assign soone to oversee you!"
Brother Cheng chuckled, "You can't say that, my Great Sage status is exalted, you can't control ."
So you took this Great Sage position just to be lazy?
The Palace Masters were heartbroken. Such talent wasted, it's a pity.
The Great Hall Master's tone beca stern, "Even if you are a Great Sage, you must participate in assessnts; it is the rule of the Divine Hall."
