Ling Pengyun's three senior brothers who followed the body refinement path, however, remained stuck at their Cultivation Bottleneck, still lingering at Golden Core Completion.
Still, their foundations had grown increasingly profound.
The powerful divine abilities they knew had also been comprehended to ever-greater heights.
Working together, they could likely contend with an ordinary first-layer Nascent Soul cultivator.
That was not bad at all.
Afterward, Ling Pengyun stayed there for several more days, catching up with his senior brothers before leaving and returning home. He resumed his secluded cultivation and continued deducing the Lingxiao Five Elements Gathering Yuan Grass.
He wanted to see whether there was still any possibility of enhancing this grass's effects.
Yet the grass's efficacy had already reached its peak. Improving it further was fraught with difficulties.
Even with the Yin Yang Primordial Scripture's power of deduction, it was somewhat strenuous.
But as time gradually passed.
After ten years of effort, Ling Pengyun and the Yin Yang Primordial Scripture once more improved the potential of the Lingxiao Five Elements Gathering Yuan Grass.
So long as enough time accumulated in the future, this grass would have a chance to advance to Fourth Rank Superior Grade.
And that meant that even after Ling Pengyun reached Nascent Soul Late Stage or even Nascent Soul Completion, this grass could still aid him.
Some time later.
His wife, Yan Siyi, emerged from seclusion once again.
This time, her body refinement cultivation had reached the lofty realm of Golden Core Completion.
Counting carefully, both her ordinary cultivation path and her body refinement path had reached the Consummation Realm.
By these methods alone, ordinary cultivators were no match for her.
If the several Spirit Treasure Prototypes in her possession were added to the equation, she could likely contend with several cultivators of the same rank.
