Although the Seed Condensing Realm corresponds to the Golden Core Realm, there are huge differences. The Seed Condensing Realm is the most important step in creating an inner world within one's Dantian. A Divine Tree will eventually be cultivated there, one that can touch the heavens, be entirely self-sufficient, and grant a long, eternal life. It would also possess terrifying Divine Skills. The Golden Core Realm, on the other hand, is merely the process of nurturing another self, which is more akin to pregnancy and far easier by comparison.
Therefore, the Seed Condensing Realm is more miraculous than the Golden Core Realm. Breaking through to this realm is harder than ascending to the heavens—far more difficult than reaching the Golden Core Realm. It could take decades or even centuries of diligent cultivation just to have a chance.
However, if one could accumulate a vast amount of virtue, it wouldn't take nearly as long.
