According to what Wang Yu knew, after reaching Foundation Establishment, cultivators could not nurture a magical artifact's spirituality within their spirit soul as Golden Core cultivators could. However, they could use a secret method to merge a wisp of their spirit soul into a magical artifact, making it their life-bound magical artifact.
