So this was the reason for the Bottleneck.
It was the Heavenly Dao using this method to forcibly suppress a Cultivator’s Realm, all to prevent Cultivators from endlessly taking.
Thinking of this, Qin Xuan took a deep breath.
“If that’s the case, then Cultivators would never be able to improve their strength, would they? There must be a way to break this situation.”
Hearing Qin Xuan say this, Han Ye quickly explained.
“Yes, of course there is—it’s to comprehend the Heavenly Dao!”
“Comprehend the Heavenly Dao? This can make the Heavenly Dao stop suppressing?”
Qin Xuan was stunned.
“That’s right. When you comprehend a complete Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Dao will treat you as a part of this world. This way, no matter how much Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and essence you absorb, from the Heavenly Dao’s perspective, you yourself are part of the world, and whatever you absorb still remains within this Heaven and Earth.”
“For the Heavenly Dao, this is merely the transfer of Spiritual Qi and spiritual objects from one place to another. For the entire Heaven and Earth, it ultimately remains balanced.”
“Such is the Heavenly Dao!”
Han Ye explained, and only then did Qin Xuan realize.
So, it was by comprehending the Heavenly Dao that one could ‘disguise’ themselves as a part of Heaven and Earth, and in doing so, the Heavenly Dao would no longer suppress a Cultivator’s cultivation.
“Therefore, the standard for distinguishing Advanced Cultivators is the extent of their Heavenly Dao comprehension.”
Han Ye said.
“But what does this have to do with not being able to speak their names?”
Qin Xuan found it a bit strange.
“It’s simple. When a Cultivator cultivates to the peak of this world, their mastery over the Heavenly Dao becomes more proficient. At this point, the influence is bidirectional.”
“In other words, the most powerful Cultivators can now influence or even interfere with the Heavenly Dao, thereby disrupting the Laws of Heaven and Earth.”
“At this point, the Heavenly Dao they primarily cultivate will indelibly bear their mark!”
“As long as you live under this Heaven and Earth, as long as you are subject to the interference of this Heavenly Dao and the Laws of Heaven and Earth, once you speak the Great Figure’s name, the Heavenly Dao will be awakened.”
“You have a Chaotic Body, so the Heavenly Dao might not obliterate you, but your cultivation will definitely be restricted.”
“As for those with ordinary Physiques, they might even be directly obliterated, their Dao returned to Heaven and Earth!”
Hearing this, even Qin Xuan felt a lingering fear.
This was simply too powerful.
A person’s will could leave a mark in the Heavenly Dao, and then merely speaking their name would cause one to be erased.
Overbearing, it was truly too overbearing.
“A Samsara Realm Great Figure is actually this terrifying!”
Qin Xuan said, a little nervously.
Hearing this, Han Ye sneered.
“Samsara Realm? How could a Samsara Realm have such ability? Ordinary Cultivators think the Samsara Realm is the strongest Realm, but this is merely the limit that current Cultivators can reach. In reality, after the Samsara Realm, there are still the Saint Realm and Emperor Realm. Of course, for you, these are still too distant.”
“For now, it’s more important for you to honestly improve your own strength.”
Hearing this, Qin Xuan awkwardly touched his nose.
Indeed, he was only in the Tianxuan Realm right now, so considering those things was a bit too far-fetched.
“So, Bai Xiaohu didn’t lie; it really can’t just say these things?”
Qin Xuan asked, and Han Ye gave him an affirmative answer.
“Now I definitely can’t let Bai Xiaohu go. Putting aside everything else, Bai Xiaohu once followed such a Great Figure, so it will be of great help to me in the future. I need to find a way to keep it, but I can’t use force.”
With his plan decided, Qin Xuan lightly coughed and looked at Bai Xiaohu with a smile.
“Alright, since you can’t say it, then don’t speak the Great Figure’s name. But I remember you mentioned before wanting to go to Luo Feng Mountain. Where is that place?”
Hearing this, Bai Xiaohu felt a bit annoyed.
At that time, it thought it had already controlled Qin Xuan, and only wanted to manipulate him to go to Luo Feng Mountain.
It hadn’t expected Qin Xuan was just pretending.
“Before I fell into slumber, that Great Figure once left me a message, telling me to go to Luo Feng Mountain after I awakened. As for the location of Luo Feng Mountain, he left it to me through a message, and I just transmitted that message to you as well.”
The destination had already been sent to Qin Xuan, so even if it regretted it, there was nothing it could do.
“Luo Feng Mountain, this place seems very mysterious. However, according to the information transmitted, this place isn’t here.”
Although the mountains and rivers had undergone great changes, the location was directly marked in the message, so Qin didn’t have to worry about other things.
“How about it? I’ve said everything I should. Can you let me go now?”
Bai Xiaohu looked at Qin Xuan expectantly, speaking to him.
Hearing this, Qin Xuan’s eyes flickered for a moment, then he chuckled softly.
“How about this, I have a proposal. I wonder if you’d be willing to accept it.”
Qin Xuan said, his gaze fixed intently on Bai Xiaohu.
Feeling uneasy under Qin Xuan’s gaze, Bai Xiaohu grew a little nervous.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m not going to kill you or anything. It’s just a suggestion, see what you think. If you can accept it, perhaps we can cooperate.”
That’s right, for this Bai Xiaohu who had lived since the ancient era, Qin Xuan didn’t want to force it.
After all, this Bai Xiaohu had once lived with that unspeakable Great Figure for a period of time.
Clearly, this Bai Xiaohu was far from simple.
He genuinely wanted to reach an agreement with this Bai Xiaohu.
“Cooperation? What kind of cooperation?”
Bai Xiaohu looked at Qin Xuan warily.
Clearly, it didn’t think Qin Xuan genuinely wanted to cooperate with it.
“Don’t worry, I won’t harm you.”
Qin Xuan said with a smile, a hint of amusement on his face.
“Little fellow, how long do you think you can last in this world with your current strength?”
Qin Xuan calmly asked Bai Xiaohu.
Hearing this, a hint of hesitation flashed across Bai Xiaohu’s face.
“That’s nothing, I can use my Mental Energy to control some Spirit Beasts for my use…”
Before it could finish speaking, Qin Xuan raised an eyebrow, looking at the other party with a faint smile.
Qin Xuan’s gaze made Bai Xiaohu feel a bit uneasy.
“Controlling some Spirit Beasts will allow you to smoothly leave here and reach your destination? Things probably aren’t that simple.”
Qin Xuan said with a smile.
“Putting everything else aside, weren’t you almost caught by that guy just now? If it weren’t for me, do you think you could have escaped so smoothly?”
Hearing this, Bai Xiaohu wanted to refute but was suddenly speechless.
After mumbling for a long time, it stared directly at Qin Xuan.
“What do you want to say? Just say it, don’t hide anything.”
Hearing Bai Xiaohu say this, Qin Xuan smiled and nodded.
“Then I’ll say it. I have an idea that benefits both of us, it just depends on whether you agree.”
“It’s simple: until you grow stronger, I’ll provide you protection. You just need to occasionally provide me with some secrets from the Ancient Era and Ancient Era, that’s enough.”
“Of course, if you can help me identify some ancient era or ancient era texts or maps, that would be even better.”
