Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1190 - 576: The Secret of Advancing to Integration, Shaking the Heaven and Earth Laws

"Next, we must strategize on how to achieve a breakthrough into the Integration Realm."

"Ascending from the Refining Void stage to the Integration stage is by no means a simple feat."

Jiang Fan mused, stroking his chin.

The truth was, whether in the ancient Void Realm era or the current Spirit Ruins Realm, cultivators who reached the Integration Realm were exceedingly rare.

Even when blessed with an abundance of resources, the journey to the Integration Realm remained a formidable challenge.

If it were merely a matter of ease, the Spirit Ruins Realm would not host such a paucity of Integration stage cultivators.

With this thought, he immediately consulted the Primordial Talisman Pen for guidance on advancing to the Integration Realm.

As a relic of the Primordial Talisman Sect, it was undoubtedly the most knowledgeable about the intricacies of this advancement.

From the initial Qi Refining Stage all the way up to the Mahayana Realm, the Primordial Talisman Pen possessed comprehensive knowledge, akin to having a Mahayana Cultivator constantly at one's side.

"You have finally reached this pinnacle of Cultivation."

"I never anticipated you would advance to the Ninth Layer of Void Refining with such celerity."

"However, it is indeed time for you to commence preparations for advancing to the Integration Realm."

"After all, even for a peerless prodigy, the Integration Realm is not easily attained," the Primordial Talisman Pen declared with a hint of emotion.

Internally, it felt a profound sense of gratification that the individual it had chosen had finally attained this milestone.

Upon becoming an Integration Cultivator, both one's strength and lifespan would experience a dramatic enhancement.

At this level of Cultivation, death would become an incredibly difficult outcome to achieve, even if one desired it.

At the very least, one's capacity for self-preservation would multiply severalfold.

During the ancient Void Realm era, Integration Cultivators were considered the true elite.

Void Refining Cultivators, conversely, were merely considered elites, far from being figures of the highest echelons.

"What precisely makes advancing to the Integration Realm so arduous?" Jiang Fan inquired, his curiosity piqued.

"The Integration Realm, as its name suggests, hinges entirely on the concept of integration."

"To achieve this advancement, one must achieve the complete fusion of the primordial spirit and the physical body."

"The initial phase of this process involves tempering the primordial spirit. Prior to entering the Integration Realm, the primordial spirit must transform from its ethereal state to a solidified form, becoming a tangible entity."

"This single step has proven insurmountable for countless cultivators at the Ninth Layer of Void Refining, demanding a soul talent of exceptionally high caliber, a feat unattainable for the majority of Void Refiners throughout their entire lives."

"Furthermore, one must also fortify the physique to a degree sufficient to withstand the immense pressure of Void Power; otherwise, even if the advancement is successful, the infusion of void energy could result in catastrophic self-destruction," the Primordial Talisman Pen elaborated.

There was no doubt that to even contemplate advancing to the Integration Realm, both the primordial spirit and the physical body needed to attain a state of perfection, granting one the mere qualification to attempt the breakthrough.

"If these were the sole prerequisites, perhaps the ancient era would not have witnessed so few cultivators making the leap to Integration."

"Could there be another, more critical factor involved?" Jiang Fan pressed.

"Indeed, it appears you have already grasped a sense of it."

"The paramount element in advancing to the Integration Realm is, without question, the synergy of fusion."

"The unification of the primordial spirit and the body is far from a straightforward process."

"Should your primordial spirit prove too potent while the body remains too fragile, the body might fracture and perish during the fusion, unable to contain the overwhelming power of the primordial spirit."

"Conversely, if the primordial spirit is too weak and the body excessively robust, fusion would become an impossibility, trapping one eternally at this juncture, forever barred from breaking through."

"To be frank, in the ancient era, certain exceptionally powerful Body Cultivators found themselves perpetually stuck at the peak of Refining Void because their physiques were too formidable, lacking the equivalent spiritual power in their primordial spirits to facilitate any advancement."

"Only when the primordial spirit and the physical constitution are in perfect equilibrium can a successful fusion be achieved."

"Upon successful fusion, the cultivator's physique undergoes a radical and astonishing metamorphosis, evolving into a body composed entirely of energy, with their entire being constituted of immense power."

"Consequently, the physique of an Integration Stage cultivator can be regarded as an 'undying body,' capable of instantaneous teleportation and regenerating severed limbs—abilities far beyond the reach of flesh-and-blood bodies," the Primordial Talisman Pen explained.

It went on to briefly detail the various exceptional abilities that Integration Cultivators possessed.

The transition from Refining Void to Integration represented a fundamental shift in essence.

If Void Refining cultivators could barely be considered human, then Integration Cultivators utterly transcended mortal limitations.This marks the initial phase of transitioning from a mortal being to an Immortal. "Does progressing require harmonizing the power between the primordial spirit and the physical body?" "No wonder even the most exceptional talents struggle to ascend to the Integration stage." Jiang Fan's brow creased. He instantly grasped the formidable challenge of reaching the Integration Realm. For instance, his soul talent is exceptionally potent, and presently, his cultivation rests at the Ninth-Layer Void Refining. However, the might of his primordial spirit has already attained the Ninth-Layer Integration, vastly surpassing his current cultivation level. In contrast, his physical body and primordial spirit power are considerably weaker. The unparalleled geniuses of the Ancient Era must have encountered analogous predicaments. Some possessed formidable souls, while others boasted robust physiques. Achieving equilibrium between these two aspects would undoubtedly consume an immense amount of time. Should one's lifespan prove inadequate, success in advancing might remain elusive even with the complete depletion of their allotted years. This explains the extreme scarcity of Integration Cultivators within the Ancient Era's Void Realm. "Precisely, your primordial spirit is presently too dominant, while your physique is wanting."
