"Only one step remained before Mahayana..."
Several months later, once his Nascent Soul had completed its transformation, Wei Tu gazed at the jade box containing the Nine-Aperture Immortal Embryo, a glint flashing in his eyes as excitement gradually welled within him.
For other great cultivators of the Integration realm, that single step might have been an impassable chasm for their entire lives.
Yet for him, that step was no longer insurmountable.
