"Although you cannot sense the breakthrough, it is important that you keep gathering energy."
Lan was looking at the frustrated expression on Xue Wei's face as he once again had spent a whole day cultivating with no signs of breaking through to the next realm.
Xue Wei, who had been feeling listless, looked at Lan, waiting for him to explain what he meant.
"As I said before, the King rank is not one where you can enter just due to you amassing Qi to no ends. When you go from having a mortal body to having a spirit body, you will be reborn. While it is a higher realm, it is also considered a reset. Everything you have gained prior to this rank will be washed out, and you will have to start all over, in a way.
"This does not mean that the energy you are gathering now is useless, quite the opposite. There are even some who wait with breaking into the King rank for the sake of gathering as much Qi as possible before the breakthrough.
