After reaching a bottleneck, many cultivators would be stuck at the bottleneck for a long time. It was normal for them to be stuck at a bottleneck for tens of thousands of years, unable to break through even when at the end of their lifespans.
After reaching a bottleneck, Meng Chuan had cultivated for more than 1,000 years! He had opportunities like Clear Spring Island's cave abode, the Great Seal, and White Avian Hall's manuals. Even with his perception, it took him a long time to break through. This was a testament to how difficult it was to break through a bottleneck.
Many cultivators are stuck at a bottleneck for too long, causing their mental state to be unbalanced. They begin to feel anxious and think of all sorts of solutions. The more anxious they are, the harder it is to break through.
