For example, those whose lifebound spiritual treasure is made from the most ordinary spiritual material, even if refined slowly over dozens or hundreds of years, can suppress and evolve no more than six law paths, and their cultivation level cannot break through to Star Monarch.
In the later stages, they might even resort to re-integrating innate spiritual materials and innate treasure materials to make up for it, and each item refined just adds one more evolved and suppressed law. The main material determines its limit.
If lifebound spiritual treasures are made of treasure material, the limit is twelve law paths. As for integrating innate treasure materials later, it only increases the limit by one.
If lifebound spiritual treasures are made of innate spiritual material, the maximum number of evolved and suppressed law paths is eighteen.
This is also the standard configuration for many geniuses.
