After this battle, the hearts of the people in the Great Ling Empire had become more united. The only issue was that Ling Han's body could only bear the power of ten Stars of Shattering Void Tier. Hence, there wasn't much increase in his power.
His cultivation had been increasing all this while, but compared to the power of ten Stars of Shattering Void Tier, it was still negligible. Only stepping into the Shattering Void Tier would bring about a qualitative transformation in his power.
Without realizing it, another few months had passed.
Ling Han had already reached the ninth layer of the Heaven Tier, and was beginning to switch to cultivating the Extreme Yang Technique. Although there wasn't any bottleneck, to begin cultivating a new technique still needed to be done cumulatively. He reckoned that breaking through to the Shattering Void Tier would take about a year's time.
