Time flew by, and before long, it was already August.
After nearly a month of secluded cultivation, Ning Wangshu had finally trained the Eighty-Nine Mysterious Skill to the peak of the Seventh Realm, Ninth Transformation. He was only one step away from breaking through to the Eighth Realm!
However, after reaching the peak of the Seventh Realm, Ninth Transformation, Ning Wangshu had not been able to break through to the Eighth Realm as quickly as he had before.
This left him somewhat astonished.
After all, ever since he had obtained that drop of Essence Blood from an ancient Wizard Clan powerhouse, the Eighty-Nine Mysterious Skill had never presented him with a bottleneck. His progress had always come naturally, like water flowing to form a channel.
But this time, even after reaching the peak of the Seventh Realm, Ninth Transformation, Ning Wangshu had spent another four or five days without managing to break through.
The situation was rather unusual.
It also gave Ning Wangshu a vague suspicion. Perhaps... the power in that drop of Essence Blood from the Wizard Clan powerhouse can only help me this far, allowing me to quickly train the Eighty-Nine Mysterious Skill to the peak of the Seventh Realm, Ninth Transformation.
But to advance further and enter the Eighth Realm, I'll have to rely entirely on my own cultivation and break through myself.
Considering the commonalities between the Eighty-Nine Mysterious Skill and the Wizard Clan's Nine Revolutions Yuan Skill, perhaps the owner of that drop of Essence Blood—that Wizard Clan powerhouse—had only trained the Nine Revolutions Yuan Skill to the peak of the seventh transformation, and never reached the eighth or higher.
So, naturally, that drop of Essence Blood can't help me break through directly to the Eighth Realm or beyond...
Although it was only a guess,
