As vast amounts of resources were concentrated on supporting Jiang Lin and the others, their cultivation progressed at an astonishing pace.
The Origin Qi Continent never lacked cultivation resources capable of helping someone swiftly break through to the Nine-Star Dou Emperor Peak. What it truly lacked were genuine prodigies among Super Dou Huangs. At the Super Dou Huang stage, resources were no longer important; one's personal realm and comprehension mattered most.
To Super Dou Huangs, Source Qi was like "01" code, while their bodies and Transcendental realms were all manner of bizarre, imaginative software programs written using that Source Qi code.

To put it in more modern terms, the world's underlying code did not contain a program called "Super Dou Huang." Normal people cultivated from Dou Huang to Dou Zong by following the Dou Qi power system step by step. Once their energy accumulation reached the necessary point, they could break through. That was one of the "underlying codes."

It was impossible for "drinking too much soy sauce" or "getting too much sun" to cause massive, "reality-defying" mutations in an infant's traits.
Yet the "Super Dou Huang" path pioneered by the Origin Race of the Origin Qi Continent was even more heaven-defying than the
