Before long, attaining the Dao would mean reaching Great Luo, and tracing the source would mean reaching Primordial Unity.
In essence, there would be no other way to describe them, no other paths to follow.
Ever since the Heavens of Chaos had come into being, this aspect of cultivation had been chaotic and disorderly.
That chaos and disorder had brought little benefit.
Without a unified, clearly defined path whose every step lay plainly beneath their feet and ahead of them, Cultivators had always gone their separate ways. That made advancement through these stages far more difficult.
In a realm like Great Luo, aside from one's own fundamental Dao, some experiences and insights could help others.
Some could even lead directly to specific breakthroughs in understanding, saving those who came later time.
Each person's Great Dao was their own, but these Great Powers were also living beings. However one looked at it, they had things in common.
One of the greatest benefits of a clear, complete system was that those who followed its path could advance faster and more effectively.
They had already reached the level of the Great Dao. Cultivators might have endless time, but saving time where they could move ahead quickly still mattered.
It was better than wasting time for nothing.
Great Luo and Primordial Unity were both, in essence, the Dao. That alone said plenty.
People truly did have things in common, even things that were the same.
Those walking incomplete paths were still stumbling along, while those on complete paths were already advancing by leaps and bounds.
A chaotic, disorderly, disunified state of affairs wasted a great deal of the Great Powers' time and energy. Sometimes, it even left them "drawing their swords and looking about, hearts at a loss."
