(Over 4,500 words—this counted as a big chapter, so give me some rewards!!!) Speaking of which, Yuan Tian's first and only divine ability, the Illusory-Extinguishing Star Eye, had reached the realm of Great Accomplishment. What effects would the Illusory-Extinguishing Star Eye have upon reaching Great Accomplishment? Let's leave that as a suspense for now and discuss it later.
For now, let's continue with Yuan Tian's secluded cultivation this time.
As mentioned before, a person's strength was not judged solely by cultivation. Divine abilities, secret arts, formations, pill refining, artifact refining, and a whole series of other things could all be considered part of one's strength.
Now, Yuan Tian's cultivation had advanced greatly, reaching the Quasi-Sage realm, while both his divine abilities and laws had advanced as well. This could be called three joys arriving at once.
Secret arts? Couldn't divine abilities be regarded as a special kind of secret art?
As for formations, Yuan Tian truly had no way to improve further for the moment. Although the reason he had gained so much this time was because of formations, his attainments in formations had already reached a certain height—and not an ordinary height at that. Moreover, such things would not improve simply because one's personal strength increased.
Even if Yuan Tian's cultivation reached the realm of a Sage now, his attainments in formations would not improve much. They might not remain exactly the same, but they would be close enough.
By the same principle, pill refining and artifact refining were more or less the same as setting formations. If there was any difference, it was that pill refining and artifact refining required practical operation and verification even more. They were not merely theoretical work, but practical work as well.
With theory alone and no practice, one could forget about improving
