"I nearly lost myself." Li Yuan sighed inwardly, "Is just the first Soul Pillar this difficult? Sixty million years of ti have subtly influenced my self-awareness."
"And this is the weakest among the 136 Emperor Realm beings, ford from the soul origin."
"What about the Soul Masters of other stronger Emperor Realms?"
"My will is indeed weaker compared to those ancient Emperor Realms." Li Yuan pondered to himself.
The soul and will are different.
The strength of the soul is primarily nourished by the Dao and the Divine Power of the flesh, the stronger the Eternal Dao pioneered by the strong, the stronger the Divine Body, and the soul will naturally beco powerful in its growth.
Just like in the mortal world, a healthy body naturally exudes vitality.
Like Li Yuan, in terms of Dao Realm, flesh, and Divine Power, he is no less than ordinary Emperor Realms, making his soul as strong as theirs.
Will, on the other hand, is more ethereal... Generally speaking, the stronger the soul, the longer the cultivation ti, the stronger the will is gradually tempered.
But so who are extrely weak also have very strong wills.
Just like a rare few among mortals, who can endure endless torture and tornt, they are people with extrely strong willpower.
And Li Yuan is actually very skilled in Soul Will, and his will grows rapidly.
Upon reaching the Purple Mountain and obtaining the Ancient Universe... it was due to his strong will, and gaining Little Tomb’s approval was largely attributed to his willpower.
Even though he has only cultivated for a few thousand years, in terms of willpower, even so powerful Quasi-Saints like Long Ya Quasi-Saint and Purple Fire God King find it challenging to surpass him.
But compared to those ancient Emperor Realms who have lived for tens of millions or even billions of years... Li Yuan’s will does not have the advantage, it is even at a disadvantage.
No way around it!
Many ancient Emperor Realms, perhaps not as powerful as Li Yuan, but their cultivation ti is incredibly long, and their True Bodies have long stayed inside the Eternal Relics. Although the progress of the Eternal Dao is slow, under the grind of ti, their will is constantly improving.
"Besides, sixty million years of endless tornt."
"And sixty million years of normal life, indeed, there are so differences." Li Yuan thought.
If it were normal life, with the simple passing of ti, not to ntion sixty million years, even six hundred million years wouldn’t cause Li Yuan’s self-awareness to collapse.
But endless loneliness, endless tornt... that’s a world of difference.
Ordinary people probably can’t endure two or three days in such an environnt.
"Even though it was painful tornt, it couldn’t break this Soul Pillar’s shackle, but the two consciousness possession journeys, spanning over sixty million years of experiences, have indeed brought considerable gain." Li Yuan smiled again.
Sixty million years of nearly real, endless tornt experiences.
After this round of consciousness return, the convergence of the Nine Great True Bodies’ consciousness also benefited Li Yuan greatly.
Not to ntion, amidst the endless fla’s tornt, Li Yuan’s will continued to strengthen, compared to a hundred years ago, it has beco much stronger.
"Compared to true Emperor Realms, just on will alone, I guess now I’m not much lacking." Li Yuan was imnsely satisfied.
"But likewise, this kind of experience is also invisibly influencing myself." Li Yuan nodded slightly.
How long have I truly been cultivating?
The so-called soul consciousness, at its foundation, is composed of countless mories of oneself... experiencing such a long span of ti, it’s no wonder it affects one’s self-awareness.
"Going through this Soul Master can rapidly hone and strengthen the will, but if one is not strong enough, one should not attempt it lightly." Li Yuan realized the pros and cons of the Soul Pillar: "If one can’t handle it, it will result in the disaster of losing oneself."
He also understood Jin Yuan’s words, only by growing fast enough can the root of passing the trial quickly be attained.
"At least."
"Before removing various distracting thoughts, I can’t go through the Soul Pillar again." Li Yuan gently closed his eyes.
Hoo!
His True Body still sat cross-legged, closing his eyes once more, entering quiet cultivation.
Not far away.
"Indeed as I expected." Jin Yuan, with his towering body, gently shook his head.
"How was it?" Little Tomb imdiately asked, his Cosmic Realm Holy Spirit Body had been waiting nearby throughout this century.
"Failed." Jin Yuan sighed, "Being able to persist for a full hundred years with a God King Realm’s body before failing is terrifying enough, and as you said, his cultivation ti hasn’t even reached ten thousand years, making him truly remarkable... but wanting to pass the 136 Soul Pillar trials left by the master is still far off."
"Is it that difficult?" Little Tomb frowned.
He knew the power of Li Yuan’s will.
"Naturally it’s difficult, as per the master’s plan, it was intended for him to reach the Emperor Realm before coming." Jin Yuan explained as a matter of course, "These trials are specifically for Emperor Realms."
"However, since he can awaken under the first Soul Pillar, he shouldn’t be in any life-threatening danger, just needing an extrely long ti to slowly improve his will." Jin Yuan said.
"So, you’re saying his True Body will remain trapped here?" Little Tomb frowned.
Although Li Yuan has the Nine Great True Bodies, each True Body is very important.
For contemporary strong beings, cultivating in Cosmic Space-Ti and in the Eternal Relics involves entirely different efficiencies.
In Li Yuan and Little Tomb’s plan, after obtaining the treasure in the Supre Hall, all True Bodies would return to the Heart Dream Universe for cultivation.
Unexpectedly, such a change happened.
"This depends on the speed at which his other True Bodies deduce the Eternal Dao in the outside world." Jin Yuan said, "I estimate that he probably needs to step into the Emperor Realm to have hope of escaping."
Little Tomb frowned deeply.
Jin Yuan, as an Emperor Puppet under Supre Hong Ying, has a very high perspective, and since he said so, there must be reason to it.
Suddenly.
"Buzz~" An ethereal and vast aura emanated from Li Yuan, making his entire presence beco mysterious and vague, his figure even taking on a slightly unreal quality.
