This restriction is the fundamental reason why there are relatively few strong men above the Immortal Realm in the world outside the world of mortals; and it is precisely because the first level of the Immortal Realm versus the second level of Immortal Realm cultivators, the gap is as big as
A newborn baby who is not yet a full month old is completely incomparable to a thirty-year-old man.
Let's use an analogy.
Breaking through the Lingyuan realm requires one cup of water. Breaking through the second level of the Lingyuan realm requires two cups. Breaking through the third level requires three cups of water... And when it comes to the next big stage, the overall amount will be doubled. Ninth
The first taste of the next stage requires not ten cups of water, but eighteen cups of water. The second taste requires not nineteen cups of water, but thirty-six cups of water.
Level three requires fifty-four cups... and so on.
Although each time you advance to a great realm, the required spiritual power base is a multiple of the highest level in the previous stage, but it is still much better than the immortal realm, because in the immortal realm, if you want to break through the current level, you need more spiritual power.
The accumulation of power is the sum of the previous one cup plus two cups plus three cups... plus fifty-four cups... plus tens of thousands of cups... all the way up to the latest level of water you have broken through...
The so-called metaphor of a glass of water is, of course, just a metaphor, but if we really calculate it using this model, everyone who comes to the conclusion will probably go crazy immediately!
In the past, it was always said that an astronomical figure is an astronomical figure, but if water is really used to describe the accumulation of spiritual power required for cultivators in the Immortal Realm to advance to a higher level, this accumulation is an astronomical figure in the true sense!
When entering the entry-level stage of cultivators, you only need a cup of water. Then, after reaching the first level of the immortal realm, if you want to break through the total water storage capacity of the second level, you will need almost the capacity of the Pacific Ocean!
Therefore, every time a cultivator of the Immortal Realm breaks through a level, it often takes tens of thousands of years of hard work to achieve a breakthrough!
Or should I say, this is the normal situation, the normal progress of a cultivator!
It is simply unimaginable to gather so much spiritual power in a short period of time. Even if you take Danyun Divine Pill every day to assist in your cultivation, you will never be able to complete it in a short period of time!
However, you can’t go out until you stop making breakthroughs. Ye Xiao has rules in place...
The three of them had just broken through, and it was the time of a new round of high spirits. They wanted to vent their current excitement, but they had nowhere to vent. You can imagine how depressing this was!
But no matter how depressed you are, you have to hold it in. Under the "Four Forevers" prohibition, there is another more terrifying summary prohibition: "Those who violate any of the above prohibitions will be expelled from the Sovereign Pavilion, and their actions will be prohibited, and their words will be followed."
!”
Compared with depression, the threat of being expelled from the Sovereign Pavilion was more terrifying, so everyone in the Sovereign Pavilion continued to practice desperately under Ye Xiao's strict orders and power.
As for going out to seize territory and expand power...
"If you don't have enough strength, even if you occupy territory and expand your power, what's the use?" Ye Xiao said this: "Just one Guizhen Pavilion will wipe out all your hard work for such a long time! All your hard work
Many of the men who were recruited and managed have been killed or injured! If we rush out to grab territory now, how can we know that we won’t end up with the same fate as the day before?”
"The Monarch Pavilion currently has a total staff of 4,100 people, and our upper limit is 5,000 people!"
Ye smiled and said: "The members of the Monarch Pavilion will not be expanded in the future. Five thousand people are enough!"
"As long as each of you becomes strong, you can go out, become kings and hegemons, and be released into the world as monarchs!"
"My original intention is for you to go out and become kings, not for you to go out and be slaughtered!"
"If you are going to face life and death crises from time to time after you go out, you might as well train yourself to death here!"
"This point is non-negotiable by anyone!"
"Exceptions are equivalent to giving up membership in the Sovereign Pavilion!"
Ye Xiao's four eternals have become a lingering chain for everyone in the Monarch Pavilion.
For example, those who have bad luck are not sure whether they are good or bad. They happen to be at the peak of the ninth level of the Saint Yuan Realm. By chance, they break through the Immortality Realm in one fell swoop. According to the rules, they can go out once.
Yes, feel free to get out!
However, when you come back, you will be banned again. You can't go out again until you reach the sixth level of Immortality Realm.
When you reach the sixth level, you have the authority to go out once again, but when you return to the Hall of Life and Death, if you cannot break through the immortal realm, you will no longer have the authority to go out!
When you break through the immortal realm, you will naturally go out again, but when you come back, if you don't break through the second level of the immortal realm, you don't plan to go out!
And so on.
This is a dead rule, which can be described as quite inhumane.
But this rule is for everyone, including the Lord of the Monarch Pavilion Ye Xiao himself, including Yueshuang Yuehan and Xuan Bing, all must strictly abide by it, no one can be exempted!
It is precisely because of this situation that a very strange situation inevitably formed.
The manpower of the Monarch Pavilion is always active outside; but the total number of people is definitely not large, and every once in a while, these powerful masters disappear one after another, and are replaced by some other people with the same extraordinary strength who are active in the arena;
Don't try to do anything against these people. On the one hand, these people in the Monarch's Pavilion who are walking outside are not only extremely powerful, but also extremely secretive, and their time in the world is very short. Maybe when you have laid out the comprehensive plan
, when you intend to catch all these people... you will find that these people have disappeared without knowing it...
What replaces them is another group of new people, and this new group of people is usually stronger than the original group, or even more than one.
Even if you still want to target it, it takes time to design a new plan, it takes time to measure the strength of these people, it takes time to gather enough people, and it also takes time to find a time and place that fits the plan, especially to capture the traces of these people and prepare for implementation.
It also takes time... No matter how good a layout expert is, it will still take one or two months to prepare a kill game...
And when you are fully prepared and confirm that the killing plan is complete enough, you will find that the people you want to target are gone again, and the people operating outside the Monarch Pavilion are not the same people as before.
This is often not the point. The point is that the strength of the new people may be abnormally strong. If the original plan you planned is still implemented according to the original plan, it is basically equivalent to delivering food to these people. The so-called seeking death.
It's like this outside...
Plans never keep up with the changes in the Monarch Pavilion!
This made all the opponents and enemies of the Monarch Pavilion so depressed that they almost vomited blood.
Especially Meng Wuzhen, who was so angry that he almost smashed his rudder to pieces!
This is the first time in so many years that I have encountered such a difficult opponent.
