Chapter 300 Half-Step Divine Realm
Lu Jiuxuan’s aura gradually stabilized, and his eyes took on a disdainful dominance, as if he were looking down upon the world. There was a faint sense of transcendence about him.
Chen Fan watched Lu Jiuxuan intently, his heart filled with surprise. He could see traces of a true Cultivator in Lu Jiuxuan.
"Half-Step Divine Realm? It seems that the ultimate realm for Cultivators is indeed this so-called Divine Realm. Martial Arts and the path of cultivation really do converge in the end. He has only reached the Half-Step Divine Realm and yet already possesses the feeling of a Cultivator. Could it be that this so-called Divine Realm is where one truly becomes a Cultivator?" Chen Fan muttered to himself.
Lu Jiuxuan took a step forward, looking down at Chen Fan, and said indifferently, "I have been cultivating for over eighty years, reaching the Nine Revolutions True Person Realm ten years ago. I thought that was my limit, but a few years ago, I was fortunate enough to obtain a treasure. With this treasure, I was able to step into this realm that countless people yearn for."
"Although I am only at the Half-Step Divine Realm and my Lifebound Golden Core is only just taking shape, the power that this realm has given me completely surpasses my past understanding. The Divine Realm is so named because at this level, one possesses true strength comparable to that of celestial beings."
Hearing Lu Jiuxuan speak of the Lifebound Golden Core just beginning to take shape, Chen Fan suddenly had an idea, "Could it be that this so-called Divine Realm corresponds to the Golden Core Realm in the path of cultivation?"
After Foundation Establishment, Cultivators will condense a Lifebound Golden Core within their bodies, elevating the layer of their inner strength, making exhaling like a dragon and shattering mountains and rivers with a single punch seem effortless, not to mention living for several hundred years, indeed appearing no different from Immortals in the eyes of ordinary people.
However, Lu Jiuxuan was currently far from being on par with a strong practitioner in the Golden Core Realm, even though he was only at the Half-Step Divine Realm. If there were a Golden Core Realm practitioner whose Golden Core had just taken shape, they would certainly be far stronger than Lu Jiuxuan.
"Could it be because Martial Arts and the path of cultivation which evolved due to the lack of Spiritual Energy are inherently weaker than the true path of cultivation, thus making the Divine Realm essentially a weaker version of the Golden Core Realm?"
As Chen Fan was pondering, Lu Jiuxuan posed a question, "Boy, do you know the true difference between the Half-Step Divine Realm and a true person of the path of cultivation?"
