After the battle at Shaolin Temple, Su Xin immediately went into seclusion. However, this time his seclusion did not last long. It took him only half a month to completely digest the insights gained from the clash between two True Martial Realm powerhouses. There were benefits for Su Xin, but they were limited.
These insights were not enough for Su Xin to touch upon the threshold of the True Martial Realm, but they could point him toward the direction of advancing into True Martial.
Refining his own rules of power—Su Xin had merely found a direction for this, but had yet to truly take that step.
