This time, Huo Hai had spent a full year outside. As his strength rose, his sense of time seemed to have grown ever fainter. Not to mention one or two years—even a few decades no longer meant much.
Only those whose lifespans were limited felt time pressing down on them. Once one's lifespan became endless, one would feel from the bottom of one's heart that time was abundant. Huo Hai knew that this feeling was not good, yet he simply could not suppress it. Fortunately, his resolve to improve himself had never slackened. No matter how idle he was, he would always place cultivation and advancement first.
Over the course of that year, Huo Hai had no idea how many Secret Realms he had searched. He had discovered more than a hundred Secret Realms of all sizes that had never been opened. On average, he found one every few days. Such speed was already astonishing.
Around the Heavenly Soul Domain, Huo Hai had searched the various forbidden lands and regions large and small countless times. After absorbing such an enormous amount of Origin Spiritual Energy, his Spirit Bat Soul had finally reached the Venerable Grade Realm.
Yet after reaching this realm, further absorption had little effect. If Huo Hai wanted his Spirit Bat Soul to continue improving, he either had to use Spirit Marrow, or he could only find a way for the Spirit Bat Soul to absorb pure spatial power.
Huo Hai could tear open space with a wave of his hand and even wield a certain degree of spatial power. But that purest spatial power, the kind that could be directly absorbed, was beyond his ability to command. Only experts whose Origin Essence possessed the Spatial Attribute could achieve it after reaching Spirit Venerable. Huo Hai sighed helplessly
