Actually, as early as when he was promoted to Deputy Speaker of Dongye State, Qiu Tu had been contemplating his next advancement along the Cataclysm Path.
At the time of becoming Deputy Speaker, Qiu Tu's own strength had reached the Fourth Order. Later, the Speaker was at the peak Fourth Order.
At that time, Qiu Tu thought that perhaps he would only ascend to the Fifth Order after becoming the Sanctuary leader and would then have to find another path.
What surprised him a bit, however, was that after he became a Supreme Sanctuary Council Member (upper echelon), his power naturally rose to the Fifth Order.
Now, having become the Sanctuary leader, his own strength took another major leap forward, reaching the peak Fifth Order!
This is true strength, without any external false frame.
This meant Qiu Tu truly stood at the peak of power in the Northwestern Region.
Apart from the Sixth Tier Evil God, there would be none in the entire Northwestern Region who could rival him.
