Although Ling Tian's Golden Core cultivation would need ten or twenty thousand years to recover to its peak after he reversed his Golden Core for the eighth time, his Nascent Soul level and the scale of his Small World would not decline. In fact, his Nascent Soul was likely to improve after enduring the violent energy baptism of the reversal, and would improve further during the later tribulations. As for his Small World, it would grow even more vast by absorbing the immense energy released during the reversal.

For Ling Tian and the others, his greatest use was controlling the Myriad Sword Demon Extermination Grand Formation to hold back invading enemies. At least, that would be the case until he broke through to the middle or upper grades of the Quasi-Saint Ninth Order. So even if the Outer Realm Cultivators or Chi Xue's group attacked while he was reversing his Golden Core for the eighth time, it wouldn't be much of a problem.
