Perfected Layer Four Mortal Transformation,
for the cultivators of this Spirit-Deprived Lesser World,
was already a realm attainable only by the most outstanding geniuses among them,
yet for Lin Xuankong, Perfected Layer Four Mortal Transformation was merely the beginning of the path of cultivation!
Layer Four Mortal Transformation already required slaughtering such a terrifying number of living creatures. By Mortal Transformation Layer Five and Mortal Transformation Layer Six, he would probably have to slaughter every living thing on this planet apart from humans—those that flew in the sky, ran upon the ground, and swam in the water—before he could reach them! This Blood Spirit Great Method raised one's strength with astonishing speed in its early stages, but in the later stages, without the vast numbers of powerful living beings found in the Immortal Realm, advancement was truly far too difficult!
After all, Mortal Transformation Layer Six was still far from the level where one could cross the void in the flesh. One simply could not rely on one's own strength to reach the other life-bearing planets in this Spirit-Deprived Lesser World! Once he reached Mortal Transformation Layer Six, further advancement would become extremely difficult. He would have to slowly endure it, or forge some powerful artifact capable of crossing the void. The problem was that, in a Spirit-Deprived Lesser World like this, heavenly treasures and materials for refining artifacts were extraordinarily difficult to find. Moreover, with his realm insufficient, even if Lin Xuankong's artifact-refining skills were frighteningly high, without spiritual materials, sufficient strength, and condensed true qi, refining artifacts would still be a problem!

These one hundred and eight half-real, half-illusory runes had just been condensed
