[Although the quantity had greatly reduced, the stream in this creek was no longer spiritual power, but immortal power!]
[The transparent and intangible immortal power seemed to be brimming with spirituality, flowing freely.]
[At this moment, you slowly opened your eyes, a flash of joy crossing your face.]
[The first stage of the Mana Pass, you had successfully completed it!]
[The endless stream of spiritual power within your body had been converted into immortal power!]
[Ordinary cultivators often had only a hair-thin strand of immortal power at its birth... but you were different!]
[Your vast sea of spiritual power made your foundation far superior to that of cultivators at the same realm... The first strand of immortal power born was much thicker!]
[And next came the second step of the Mana Pass!]
[To let the immortal power within your body grow as much as possible!]
[Thus, your tri-root Heavenly Spirit Root ran wildly, the seventh rank Minor Spirit Gathering Array at this moment exerting its full effect!]
[The speed at which you absorbed spiritual energy even surpassed that of an ordinary Super Spiritual Root!]
[You felt a thought stir within you, and a hundred drops of high-grade spiritual liquid were absorbed into your abdomen, quickly converting into spiritual power through your Spiritual Root!]
[This was the unique state possessed by cultivators who had passed through the Mana Pass!]
[Spiritual power and immortal power coexisted within your body...]
[Because at this moment you had not completely crossed this pass, you couldn't directly convert spiritual energy into immortal power; instead, you needed to first convert it into spiritual power, then continually compress it, eventually forming immortal power!]
[This process was long, and it was also an enormous drain on resources!]
[A hundred drops of high-grade spiritual liquid were equivalent to ten thousand drops of low-grade spiritual liquid... and were even more readily absorbed!]
[In just a moment, you had transformed the spiritual energy contained in these liquids into spiritual power.]
[You did not stop, more and more spiritual power being absorbed into your body, filling the once depleted sea of spiritual power...]
[And at the center of the sea of spiritual power, that single strand of immortal power stood distinct from the spiritual power...]
[All the spiritual power instinctively avoided it, as if encountering a superior.]
[Hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of drops...]
[Tens of thousands of drops of high-grade spiritual liquid were absorbed into your sea of spiritual power.]
[The depleted sea of spiritual power was refilled in half a day's time.]
[Then, you began the monotonous process of compressing, converting spiritual power into immortal power...]
[Because of the successful opening of immortal power, you had prior experience, thus increasing your efficiency several times over...]
[Ten days later, another strand of immortal power flowed into the creek, the tiny stream of immortal power subtly expanding.]
[But this change brought you a surge of joy, and you continued your efforts to convert more immortal power...]
[Thus, a year passed...]
[In the thirty-fourth year, the once thumb-thick stream of immortal power had grown to the thickness of a baby's arm...]
[The amount of immortal power within you had increased several fold in a year.]
[The cost was four hundred thousand drops of high-grade spiritual liquid!]
[At this point, you had reached the minimum requirement for the Mana Pass, the arm-thick stream of immortal power signifying the weakest of immortals.]
[Not to mention Human Immortal Realm cultivators, this level of immortal power was considered middle to low among rogue immortals, unable to successfully cast several immortal techniques...]
[Naturally, you were not content with this, so you continued to absorb spiritual liquid, filling the sea of spiritual power, converting it into immortal power.]
[With the continual increase in the limit of immortal power, your speed of converting immortal power grew faster and faster...]
[Thus, a year passed.]
[In the thirty-fifth year, the stream of immortal power that was once the thickness of a baby's arm expanded further, growing to the thickness of a wrist...]
[The cost was five hundred thousand drops of high-grade spiritual liquid!]
[The wrist-thick stream of immortal power was already comparable to the best among rogue immortals. If it further improved, it could reach the standard of the Human Immortal Realm!]
[Thus, you continued to expand the stream of immortal power...]
[In the thirty-sixth year, you expended five hundred thousand drops of high-grade spiritual liquid.]
[That year, the stream of immortal power expanded to a width of one inch, reaching the lowest level of Human Immortal Realm cultivators!]
[In the thirty-seventh year, you expended two hundred thousand drops of high-grade spiritual liquid and three million drops of mid-grade spiritual liquid.]

[The stream of immortal power expanded to three inches in width...]
[Three inches of immortal power, possessed only by newly transcended Human Immortal Realm cultivators.]
[Though only three inches wide, each strand of immortal power could be as light as a feather or as heavy as a thousand pounds.]
[One strand of immortal power could prolong the life of mortals, or cure all diseases in the mortal realm!]
[It could attack and destroy with power several times that of spiritual power... or it could prolong life, coexisting with the heavens and the earth...]
[This was, immortal power!]
[In the thirty-eighth year, you expended all remaining mid-grade spiritual liquid, increasing the stream of immortal power to the thickness of a bucket...]
[At this time, the stream of immortal power in the center of your sea of spiritual power was three feet wide, stretching endlessly, with immortal qi rising like mist within the sea of spiritual power.]
[You felt an immense joy, for at this point, you had reached the level of a genius within the Immortal Realm.]
[The thickness of your mana was nearly equal to that of a second or third layer Human Immortal Realm cultivator!]
[And at this moment, you still had over seventy million drops of low-grade spiritual liquid remaining, enough for further consumption...]
[Thus, you hesitated no longer, continuing to use the spiritual liquid to increase the stream of immortal power.]
[Thus, another year passed.]
[As the stream of immortal power within you continually expanded, you began to feel a slight bottleneck.]
[Before reaching the Immortal Realm, the growth of immortal power naturally could not be unlimited...]
[When you expended thirty million drops of low-grade spiritual liquid, the stream of immortal power grew to five feet wide.]
[When you expended sixty million drops of low-grade spiritual liquid, it reached six feet wide...]
[When you expended seventy million drops of low-grade spiritual liquid, it only grew to six feet one inch...]
[And finally, the stream of immortal power within you showed almost no change.]
[You sighed, knowing that this six feet one inch stream of immortal power was your limit at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage...]
