After breaking through to the Ninth Layer of Saint Martial Realm, Qin Hao did not continue using the Great Dao Spirit-Seizing Art to refine Spiritual Qi and raise his cultivation.
One step beyond the Ninth Layer of Saint Martial Realm lay the Venerable Martial Realm.
For one thing, entrants in the Azure Flame Grand Tournament had to be below the Venerable Martial Realm. Even if Venerables were allowed to compete, it would be nearly impossible for Qin Hao to break through in such a short time.
One of the greatest differences between the Venerable Martial Realm and the Saint Martial Realm was that Venerables had mastered Origin Laws.
Unless Qin Hao could immediately master either the Destruction Origin Laws or the Life Origin Laws, he could never break through to the Venerable Martial Realm.
After all, countless Ninth Layer Saint Martial Grandmasters across the True Martial Continent were stuck at that bottleneck, unable to break through.
Jiao Hong and Lei Yunkui had been among them. The greater the leap between realms, the higher the bottleneck and the steeper the difficulty of breaking through.
With no need to spend energy on his cultivation, Qin Hao channeled all the Boundless Flower Fruit's energy and Spiritual Qi into his Little Sword Jian Wu Martial Soul.
As a result,
His Little Sword Jian Wu Martial Soul devoured Spiritual Qi in a frenzy. Like a bottomless pit, it swallowed without pause.
Like a bottomless pit, it swallowed without pause.
At first, his Little Sword Jian Wu Martial Soul seemed about to burst. But that feeling soon vanished like smoke, replaced by... hunger.
It needed more energy!
"Mystic Tier Sixth Rank!"
A day and a night quickly passed.
The next morning,
a sixth ray of Mystic Yellow Light appeared.
Two-thirds of the Boundless Flower Fruit's energy
