With Zong Tianqing's notes to help him, Lin Hao now understood more about how ordinary people broke through in the Golden Body realm.
When he heard that the Laka Tribe had discovered an untapped cavern and struck it rich in one go, Lin Hao was rather speechless.
"They really were being spoon-fed by heaven..."
In theory, someone with exceptional talent could break through the first three revolutions of the Golden Body realm without natural treasures such as stone stalactite, but doing so might leave hidden injuries that damaged their foundation.

But Thousand-Year Stone Bell Milk was truly something one could only encounter by chance, and existing supplies were exceedingly scarce.
