Although he felt he could break through at any moment, Huo Hai still did not want to do so now. Though breaking through on his own would leave him without weaknesses and improve him in every aspect, it still fell far short of enhancement from a high-level Source Spirit Treasure when it came to special abilities.
Moreover, without the help of high-level Source Spirit Stones, cultivation would be very slow, let alone reaching a higher realm. Rather than breaking through and then being unable to use Source Spirit Stones, it would be better to wait until he found high-level ones. He could use the Source Spirit Stones while drawing on his own spiritual power to break through. That might give him even greater potential for future development.
In fact, people had entertained such an idea before. They would cultivate themselves to the brink of a breakthrough, then break through while absorbing Source Spirit Stones. Unfortunately, no one had ever managed it.
It was not that it could not be done, but that it took far too long. Relying on one's own strength to break through, without the various spiritual cultivation methods of ancient times, was basically impossible with modern cultivation methods.
