Hence, after a certain stage, it would be impossible for ordinary Daoyuan realm experts to continue extending and expanding their Dao paths.
They were lacking in comprehension, and had to transcend nine Great Dao calamities in order to strengthen and perfect their Dao paths before they could become stronger again.
Although they could continue to extend and expand their Dao paths by severing the source of their Dao paths from the Great Dao, the resulting Dao path would be weaker than the Dao path that was created by relying on the Great Dao of the nine zones.
It was just that they were no longer restricted by the Great Dao of the nine zones. Once they ran out of comprehension, their growth would stagnate, and they would have to obtain new insights into the Great Dao and its laws to continue extending and expanding their Dao path.
