Once, Lin Yun had felt that the Supreme realm was impossibly distant, something he could only dream of but never reach.
He had not even dared think about breaking through to Supreme, because at that time it seemed far beyond his grasp.
Now, however, that realm lay right before his eyes. From this moment on, Lin Yun would have to seriously consider how to achieve it.
Of course, this was a major realm breakthrough, an enormous bottleneck.
There were many Void Dao cultivators in the world, yet only a double-digit number of Supremes. That alone showed just how terrifyingly difficult it was to cross this hurdle.
“If I ran into that Young Lord of the Nether Palace again now, I should be able to thrash him completely, right?” Lin Yun smiled with full confidence.
Last time outside Heart City, if Lin Yun had fought the Young Lord, the battle would have been fierce. As for who would win, Lin Yun had not been certain then, but it would definitely have been a brutal struggle.
After all, the Young Lord was strong, and Lin Yun had been one whole realm below him.
Yet within the same realm, Lin Yun’s confidence in himself was absolute.
What was more, he now possessed six divine veins and his body had already reached sanctification.
“Five thousand years inside, a thousand years outside. It’s time to leave.”
With those words, Lin Yun directly exited the One-Thought Illuminated Heart Tower and went to find Zou Dongsheng.
On the plaza of the cave palace, Lin Yun met Zou Dongsheng.
“Young Master, you summoned me in such a hurry. Is something urgent?” Zou Dongsheng asked as soon as they met.
He had been in secluded comprehension himself during this period.
“Zou Dongsheng, I have great news for you.” The moment Lin Yun saw him, he grinned and announced it.
“Oh? What good news?” Zou Dongsheng immediately pressed.
“I’ve successfully broken through. I’ve reached the Harmonisation Realm.” Lin Yun smiled as he spoke.
As soon as the words left his mouth, he released his realm aura without restraint.
“Har… Harmonisation Realm?”
“It’s actually real!”
Feeling that aura, Zou Dongsheng was stunned.
“Young Master, this… you were only in seclusion for a thousand years, weren’t you? How could it be this fast!” Zou Dongsheng’s face was filled with shock.
If he had not clearly sensed Lin Yun’s realm aura himself, he would never have believed it.
Take An Yun, for instance. She had been stuck at the Transformation Realm for hundreds of thousands of years and still could not break through to Harmonisation.
Some cultivators remained stuck there for their entire lives.
Even those who progressed smoothly usually required tens of thousands of years.
“It was thanks to the insights I gained on my last trip to the beastman tribe, and of course the three Sacred Nether Fruits you gave me helped a lot too. Without them, it absolutely could not have been this quick,” Lin Yun explained with a smile.
“Young Master, resources only play a supporting role. In the end, it still depends on oneself. No amount of resources helps if the person is incapable. The reason you broke through so quickly is mainly because of your own ability,” Zou Dongsheng said.
He continued, “And as I once told you, the geniuses of those great powers, people like the Young Lord of the Nether Palace, also pile up massive amounts of resources to achieve their cultivation.”
“I understand that. Still, I have benefited greatly from the Infinite Heavenly Palace,” Lin Yun said with a laugh.
“By the way, now that I’ve reached the Harmonisation Realm, I really want to know how to break through to the Supreme realm,” Lin Yun asked curiously.
This was naturally the question he cared about most right now.
Only by truly stepping into the Supreme realm could Lin Yun stand at the absolute peak and no longer fear anyone or anything.
Only by becoming Supreme could the difficulty of searching for the remaining Origin Hearts decrease. With sufficient strength, he could travel anywhere, even to the territories of other races.
Moreover, only by reaching Supreme could he open the second wooden box left by the Palace Lord.
“Young Master, stepping into the Supreme realm is impossibly difficult. I myself have remained stuck at Harmonisation all this time, unable to take that step,” Zou Dongsheng sighed with emotion.
“I know that step must be extremely hard. But concretely, what do I need to do?” Lin Yun asked.
“Naturally, it requires comprehension. Yet exactly how one breaks through, exactly what one must comprehend, I cannot point you to a clear path. Even I, to this day, have not comprehended enough,” Zou Dongsheng replied.
After a pause, he continued, “However, there is an opportunity in the Ancestral Land that can provide some assistance in comprehending the breakthrough to Supreme.”
“Oh? What opportunity?” Lin Yun immediately asked.
