After nearly twenty years of secluded cultivation, Ding Huan's cosmic Sea of Consciousness haz interlinked star systems via the Star Bridge, expanding the Sea of Consciousness several-fold while the True Yuan within the stars of his Dantian surged tumultuously.
However, as Ding Huan continually absorbed the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, his strength steadily increased, but he could never perceive the next realm.
Being unable to sense the next realm meant that continuing cultivation would only enhance his foundation and True Yuan without enabling him to advance.
Ding Huan knew that even with his Great Universe Technique being against the heavens, his foundation was still insufficient.
He ceased his secluded cultivation.
Upon stepping out, Ding Huan saw Jia Baihe.
"Haven't you been cultivating?" Ding Huan asked, looking puzzled at Jia Baihe.
Jia Baihe smiled, "I've reached Earth Immortal Perfection, further cultivation won't help me advance to the Immortal Bridge Realm."
