A martial soul was the cornerstone of a warrior's cultivation.
Only with a high-grade martial soul could one achieve greater things in the future.
For instance, the difference between a fifth-rank martial soul and a seventh-grade martial soul was enormous, both in cultivation speed and in every aspect of comprehension.
Qin Hao himself was proof of that.
His martial soul was now seventh grade.
Upon attaining a tenth-grade martial soul, one can cultivate the third chapter of the Great Dao Spirit-Seizing Art—the Heaven and Earth Chapter.
The Great Dao Spirit-Seizing Art was divided into nine chapters, but so far, Qin Hao only had the contents of the first three in his mind.
As for the remaining six, perhaps his cultivation was insufficient, or perhaps his martial soul's grade was too low. Whatever the reason, Qin Hao still knew nothing of them.
Then there was the prerequisite for cultivating the Heaven and Earth Chapter.
His martial soul had to reach tenth grade!
And unlike the first chapter, the Spirit-Seizing Chapter, and the second, the Sacred Embryo Chapter, the third chapter was not a cultivation method, but a divine ability!
According to the Heaven and Earth Chapter, divine abilities are a type of martial skill. Cultivation methods and martial skills are actually divided into several tiers.
The four grades—Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow—are merely the most basic. Above heaven-tier cultivation methods and martial skills are secret techniques, which are also divided into low, middle, and high ranks.

A sharp gleam flashed in Qin Hao's eyes.
Like martial souls, divine abilities were divided into ten grades!
Tenth grade was the highest, with first grade at the other end!
And the divine ability recorded in the Heaven and Earth Chapter was eighth grade!
An eighth-grade divine ability might
