This was not Fang Qianyuan's first breakthrough. Within Human Rank, each level and transformation represented another realm of the Spirit Taming Art.
But now that he had cultivated to the tenth level and reached a crucial bottleneck, he immediately felt that his Spirit Sea had already expanded to a limit it could scarcely surpass. Its once nebulous boundary seemed to have developed an invisible membrane that blocked any further expansion.
Under pressure, the Spirit Essence within it had begun to condense into liquid, like dense mist.
When he looked inward, he could almost feel the thick, damp fog shrouding the murky space of his Spirit Sea.
This was a sign that his Spirit Essence was on the verge of liquefying, but was not yet concentrated enough to undergo a qualitative transformation.
Fang Qianyuan had long prepared for this. He calmly waited for his Spirit Sea to replenish itself, silently circulating his art and regulating his breathing, before finally opening his eyes.
I've reached the limit of Human Rank...
At this point, expanding the Spirit Sea is extremely difficult. It's constrained by a mortal's root bone...
Although I have a powerful physique and abundant Spirit Essence, I won't surpass ordinary people by much in this respect. And even if I really had twice, three times, four times, or six times as much... others might still bridge that gap with their divine abilities, spells, and special skills...
The Spirit Formation Borrowing Art is an excellent example!
With their frail physiques and ordinary root bones, how could humans command countless spirit creatures and rule the world?
Why did desolate beasts, demons, and fierce spirits, which could easily reach a hundred or even a thousand feet in size, all have to bow their heads in submission?
The key lay in humanity's reserves and potential!
