Lind had no further contact as the pair of aliens returned to their holds. It was only then he realized he had no idea where any of them had come from. What kind of movement technique was that?
There had not been a ripple in Path, Intent, or Qi!
How did they do that? It gave him a clue that there was more. He thought he had been at the peak but there was more to reach for!
The weakness of the Eternal Realm also gave him hope. If the Bastard was forcing his cultivation by brute force, there was a chance he had not formed a Harmonic Core. Fiend cultivation broke so many rules yet that was under Heaven and Earth.
Eternal Realm cultivators were not bound by those rules. Lind understood it was about achieving something else. He felt like he was on the cusp of grasping something but it slipped away.
He noticed a few changes. His mind felt more solid but his Harmonic Core was no longer purely emerald. It had gained color!
