One night had passed in the blink of an eye. Timothy, Sharon, and Fabian had been frantically searching for Zachary the entire time, but their efforts were futile. No matter where they looked, they still saw no signs of him. Their hearts sank as they thought of the worst case scenario.
"Is Hodge going to be okay? This is all my fault! I let him risk his life for something I should have been doing!" Fabian scolded himself. If anything happened to his friend, he wouldn't forgive himself.

And their strength would have to be at least close to the Divine Level. Hence, if you can cultivate a core with your current strength, this would be good for your future cultivation. Once your core is formed completely, not only will you have an invulnerable body, but you will also improve your strength to a higher level," Anne confidently informed him.
