Lin Yun continued, “Of course, this also has something to do with my cultivation method. From the first level of the Tongtian Realm to the third level, after all, it was not piled up with Haoyue Crystal Stones, so the process of shaping the Dao will be smoother.”
If Lin Yun had completely relied on Haoyue Crystal Stones to pile up his Tongtian Realm cultivation, even if he comprehended it thoroughly, the process of converting the Danhai in his body would be quite difficult. Lin Yun’s progress was very smooth, so he had not experienced this difficulty.
“In any case, Young Master breaking through to the Xu Dao Realm is a great blessing for our Wuji Heavenly Palace!” Zou Dongsheng looked very pleased.
“Now that I have reached the first minor realm of the Xu Dao Realm, ‘Shaping Dao’, then if I want to reach the second minor realm, ‘Transforming Dao’, how should I do it?” Lin Yun asked curiously.
“After reaching a realm like the Xu Dao Realm, one can say that in the ancestral land, they are already an extremely powerful existence. Even advancing a minor realm is extremely difficult, thousands of times harder than before. It is no longer possible to simply pile up resources directly,” Zou Dongsheng said.
Zou Dongsheng continued, “To advance to ‘Transforming Dao’, besides absorbing the essence of heaven and earth or cultivating internal energy, one also needs to continue comprehending the laws of the Dao and successfully transform the Dao. Only when both are achieved can one break through.”
“I see,” Lin Yun nodded.
“That is why, after reaching the Xu Dao Realm, even these minor realms will have bottlenecks. One might even get stuck at a bottleneck,” Zou Dongsheng said.
An Yun beside him said, “Young Master, I have been stuck at a bottleneck all this time. I have stayed in the Transforming Dao Realm for over sixty thousand years, always stuck here, unable to step into Merging Dao.”
“It seems that advancing further is not easy,” Lin Yun sighed.
No wonder, with such a terrifyingly large population in the ancestral land, there were still so few high-realm powerhouses.
In particular, Supreme Realm experts were even rarer.
If even the minor realms of the Xu Dao Realm were so hard to advance, let alone the major bottleneck from Xu Dao Realm to Supreme Realm.
That must be extremely terrifying, which is why Supreme Realm experts were so scarce!
Of course, what Lin Yun needed to consider right now was still advancing the minor realms within the Xu Dao Realm. As for breaking through the Supreme bottleneck, it was obviously still somewhat distant.
“Young Master, you have just successfully shaped the Dao, so there is no need to rush. Achieving Transforming Dao is not easy. Take it slowly. Our Wuji Heavenly Palace has been dormant for so many years. Even if we remain dormant for another hundred thousand years, two hundred thousand years, or even longer, it does not matter,” Zou Dongsheng said.
“I understand,” Lin Yun nodded in response.
“By the way, do you know what this thing does?”
With a flip of his hand, Lin Yun revealed the golden quality Lingxin Water Lotus.
“This… this is a Lingxin Water Lotus! And it is even golden quality!” Zou Dongsheng’s face showed shock upon seeing the Lingxin Water Lotus.
Zou Dongsheng exclaimed, “This Lingxin Water Lotus can only grow in places where the energy essence is particularly dense. Moreover, to grow to this golden quality, it not only requires an extremely long period of time, but also needs to absorb a large amount of energy essence during that long time. One can say the growth environment is very harsh. It is a very rare heavenly treasure!”
“Then what is its function?” Lin Yun pressed.
“What effect does using the Lingxin Water Lotus have?” Lin Yun pressed.
“This is a heavenly treasure that aids cultivation, and its scope of application is very broad. After using it, it makes the soul feel cool and refreshing. Not only does it make your mind extremely clear and bright, but it also puts you into a special state where you feel time slows down a lot. In that state, you might feel you have comprehended for a year, but in reality, you may have only comprehended for a day,” Zou Dongsheng said.
“Oh? That is somewhat peculiar. Is this not somewhat similar to the effect of the Saint Nether Fruit?” Lin Yun said.
Lin Yun had once obtained a Saint Nether Fruit in the Heavenly Fire Divine Hall.
Even in the Heavenly Fire Divine Hall, the Saint Nether Fruit was considered a fairly precious resource.
“The effect of the Saint Nether Fruit is far inferior to it. Although the nature is similar, the strength of the effect differs. Especially since this is a golden quality Lingxin Water Lotus, the effect is even stronger. Moreover, the Lingxin Water Lotus has a later-stage effect that the Saint Nether Fruit completely lacks,” Zou Dongsheng said.
Zou Dongsheng continued, “Furthermore, the sustained effect of this Lingxin Water Lotus is much longer. I suggest that Young Master use this Lingxin Water Lotus for comprehending realms. It will absolutely double the results with half the effort.”
“Alright, I understand,” Lin Yun nodded in agreement.
