Entering the Second Rank was even more painful than when he had first become a Transcendent.
His body felt as if it had melted away, pain almost driving him insane. His gushing blood formed small rivers, flowing outward in every direction and trickling down at the edges.
This pain was even greater than what he had experienced when he transformed from a mortal into a Transcendent.
If Xu Shu were still a mortal, he would have certainly given up long ago, passing out completely and thus unable to even do sit-ups, resulting in death.
But now, he was a Level 20 Transcendent, his body was no longer the same, his resistance much stronger!
"So it turns out that every step after becoming a Transcendent is incredibly arduous, definitely not easy. No wonder so many people have fallen on this path."
"Even I, with the slightest carelessness and a momentary lapse in concentration, would be gone forever."
