While Bai Yue focused on Tieshan, Jian Mo and other disciples were shocked from what they heard. Because they are from a mid-continent sect. They are well aware of outside matters unlike the low continent people, so, when they heard that their elder Jian has the chance to reach that realm they were shocked and horrified. Because their sect has records that just mention that realm someone can be affected by the karma so, they never mentioned that realm and talked only till domain lord but the person in front of them is mentioning that without care. Jian Mo told them "Everyone return to your sect and mention today's events but avoid that person's appearance because it can cause an internal strike among the sect members and I'll meet you all after meeting that person under the waterfall."
All the disciples of the three sects listened to him and returned to their respective sects while Jian Mo stayed beside Bai Yue and introduced himself "I am Jian Mo, the youngest elder of all the three sects. I just turned 26. Thank you for giving me guidance just now but now your life is in danger because you mentioned…."
"I am unaffected by karma and they can't do anything to me." Bai Yue interrupted him. Suddenly a large figure emerged from the waterfall and jumped near Bai Yue while happily saying "A-Yue, I did that. I entered this realm and I am stronger than you while you entered in this realm in the past."
Jian Mo was stunned because looking at the appearance of this person and the wild and bloody aura he felt from him which caused his soul to feel the primal fear and he felt the threat to his life from this person.
Bai Yue ignored his shock and looked at Tieshan with a smile on his face and said "Bear, congratulations. Besides this breakthrough, I feel that you also have a clear understanding of the path you want to take in the future."
"Yes, I know how to take my future path but before that you still have to explain the future realms to me so that I can make some changes in them myself." Then he turned to Jian Mo and asked "Who is this guy?"
Jian Mo introduced himself again and they talked to each other for a while. Bai Yue said "Since we achieved what we wanted here, let's move to the next place and focus on our future path." Tieshan agreed immediately and they prepared to leave this place but Jian Mo stopped them and looked at Bai Yue and said with some emotions "Would you mind giving me some instructions, since you told me that I have a long future." After saying this he bowed completely.
Tieshan was about to reject but suddenly Bai Yue stopped him. He said with a smile " Since meeting with a person like you what fate. Let's talk while moving forward and then you can return and we will meet if fate ever allows it."
Looking at his smile Jian Mo was in a trance and he felt that this person would definitely become his heart taboo in the future and not just him many would be like him.
Bai Yue started talking and Jian Mo responded while Tieshan listened quietly.
"So, what do you understand about the core realm and the next few realms?"
"Core realm is the solidification of the spiritual energy and polishing it to perfection so that a soul can take birth and when it reaches perfection it breaks the core and reaches the freedom realm. In the freedom realm we explore the limitations of the soul by observing different laws and polishing the soul from different laws to achieve perfection. Then comes the transformation realm where we transform the fundamentals of a soul and transcend the limits after that comes void breaking…." Bai Yue interrupted him midway with disdain in his voice;
"Which idiot taught you this? If one of my family elders would have been present here, he would have slapped that person to death just by sprouting this nonsense on the cultivation realms. You have no knowledge of realms at all. These scrappy realms are made even worse by you all, no wonder that the cultivation path is never perfect when you match others from the central and high-level continent on the same level."
He continued "The core realm is based on the foundation realm, if you build a solid foundation, you can condense a golden core or even the different supreme cores. But you all just to become a powerhouse ignore this basic rule and try to reach the golden core in the least time. Can't you just wait till you build a solid foundation. With the formation of the supreme core, you can even reach that realm with ease."
"Then comes the core realm, you are right that it is the solidification of spiritual energy but it is not necessary to do that in this realm. It can be done in the foundation realm also. The thing that makes a core realm unique is the nurturing of this realm as a soul itself, not the building of soul."
Jian Mo asked "But if I condense the solidified energy in the foundation realm then how do I advance and what nurtures the soul?"
Bai Yue said "What the core realm represents was never the core itself. It is the vessel that is created to nurture our soul inside them and when we do that the soul gets the nourishment from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and it gains the perfect sentience. Each stage in this realm is about the perfection of the soul nourishment. And when that soul nourishes it breaks that vessel and achieves freedom."
Jian Mo felt that he had gained something. Meanwhile Bai Yue continued " Soul Freedom is the realm which the name suggests- freedom. The soul perceives the laws of the world and polish itself from the different laws so that in the future it can achieve transcendence. When it polishes enough by the laws of the world it finds itself the most compatible law and chooses to step on that path. For example, you are a sword cultivator. You polish your soul with different laws like sharpness, killing, evil, fire and so on until your sword soul is polished by nine laws to perfection and then you pick the most suitable law and transform your soul with the most compatible law and integrate this law into your soul to achieve transformation."
"In soul transformation realm, if you want to achieve the strongest strength to fight across the stages then you have to destroy your transformed soul in your soul space where it resides and reconstruct it with your mastered law till it became unbreakable and then to advance in this stage further you have to choose secondary laws that you polished your soul with and use the same process with them. When you reach the peak of this realm you condense a world around you with your mastered laws and imprint it under the world laws to get the blessings and the structure of this world we call domain."
"This is where you became a domain lord. In the domain lord you have to make the domain you mastered slowly integrated into your soul and achieve intent. When you achieve 9 such intents you will reach the peak of this realm and if you want to advance further in that realm then you have to completely integrate your domain and soul and destroy them and condense a king crown which represents the Avatar."
"When you fight, the king avatar appears behind you with a king crown above you. I won't be picking on this realm any more because it will taint you with karma and increase your difficulties for your future path. Now, let's part our ways and if fate allows we will meet in the future and I can sense you gained a lot after this so you should go back, free yourself and enter close door cultivation. I also know that you have doubts but you have to find their answers on your own."
By saying this he quickly departed with Tieshan leaving Jian Mo behind dazed. When he woke up, he silently left for his sect.
