"Before Mo Longfei arrives, I can’t kill any of the Four Great Immortal Masters or the Five Taoist Masters."
Gu Jinlai understood clearly in his heart.
He split part of his spirit to focus on Qing Lian.
There, the number of Clear Lights had accumulated to over one thousand four hundred again.
The next moment, one thousand Clear Lights were directly infused into the "Great Sun Eternal Method."
Suddenly, countless insights about this cultivation technique surged into his mind.
The stability of the Great Sun Core was raised another level.
It was only a moment before Gu Jinlai realized something.
Although every advancement in the Great Sun Eternal Method doubled his size, in reality...
When the Great Sun Eternal Method reached this level, the increase in his strength was not as significant as "double."
It wasn’t that the increased "size" had diminished, but rather his control over the force had decreased.
This situation had occurred during the last enhancement of the Great Sun Eternal Method.
The power had grown too much in a short time such that he could not fully utilize the increased strength.
And the main reason limiting this utilization was not only the lack of enough time to refine it, but also the True Spirit Realm’s influence.
"Above True Spirit is the transformation into a Spirit Realm Life, the trait of a Spirit Realm Life lies in the ability to completely ’co-spirit’ the surrounding matter and energy. The surrounding matter and energy are like a part of them, using it becomes second nature. In the future, all one needs is to continuously build up the size of the Spirit Realm Life, and the matter and energy they control will grow more and more, even freely achieving the transformation between matter and energy..."
Gu Jinlai had a moment of clarity in his heart.
A Spirit Realm Life is a life that transcends matter, transcends energy.
It is a Returning to Void Life that directly surpasses Refining Essence into Energy and Qi Refining and God Transformation.
To them, controlling matter and energy is like how humans control their own hands and feet.
Therefore, the former him, who cultivated the "Three Realms," did not need to worry about not controlling his own power well.
But now, because he was worried about irreversible drawbacks after the "Three Realms" spiritualization, or even drawing the attention of the "Evil God" hidden deep within the Spirit Realm, he did not become an incarnation of Spirit Realm Life but instead pursued the Great Sun Eternal Method, which involves endlessly accumulating matter and energy.
So, he had to act according to the rules of the world of matter and energy.
And to control matter and energy...
The most critical unit is Divine Thought!
That is, the strength of the Divine Sense!
"I can also continue to increase size, but ultimately this will lead to becoming increasingly ’bloated’."
Gu Jinlai had already felt this point.
A volume of one thousand eight hundred meters, in theory, should have a stronger explosive speed, but his current speed, compared to when he was one thousand three hundred meters, had hardly increased at all.
He even had a premonition that as his size continued to grow, reaching two thousand, three thousand, even tens of thousands of meters, despite the endless strength, the power he could burst forth would no longer see a significant increase, and his flight speed would instead start to decline...
Of course, due to his size, a Divine Power Immortal Skill that could annihilate a kilometer radius and instantly kill a Profound Immortal, when used against his body of ten thousand meters, would only leave a hole.
With him inhaling sharply and operating the Great Sun Core, this hole would also be quickly repaired.
The pros and cons of the Great Sun Eternal Method had become very clear after he had progressed beyond the "entry-level" and perfected the Fourth Level.
"So, either I enhance the ’Eighteen Layers of Heaven,’ this heart-mind strengthening cultivation technique to fully exert the power I gained from each advancement, or I take a risk, gather three to four thousand Clear Lights to perfect the ’Three Realms,’ becoming an incarnation of Spirit Realm Life, and then utilize the microcosmic Spirit Realm to become a Spirit Master in one fell swoop."
In the Clear Light State, Gu Jinlais’ thoughts operated at their peak.
There was even a telepathic sense...
Bringing the "Three Realms" to perfection seemed ill-advised.
It seemed that if he really did so, great terror would ensue.
Awakening the Evil God sleeping in the True Spirit Realm!
"Then there’s only one option left..."
Gu Jinlai’s gaze shifted to the Divine Thought Technique that he had been pondering and had entered the threshold of during this time.
Eighteen Layers of Heaven.
"Zhao Xi said, it took him over one thousand six hundred years to cultivate the Eighteen Layers of Heaven to the Sixth Layer..."
Gu Jinlai looked at the remaining four hundred-plus Clear Lights.
"Let’s assume my talent is only half as good as his."
One thousand six hundred years...
The next moment, three hundred twenty Clear Lights were infused into this Refining God Technique.
