"You heard me right. The greatest value of the Wood Ya Crystal is in opening the Qi Sea. For a warrior at the Qi Transformation Realm to break through and become a powerful expert of the Qi Sea Realm, the first step is to expand their vortex into a sea. The gap between a 'vortex' and a 'sea' is immense; most experts at the peak of the Qi Transformation Realm spend their entire lives unable to complete this step. The reason they fail is not merely a lack of time, but that the vortex is too fragile. Every bit of expansion is like carving intricate patterns onto an eggshell—too little force, and you cannot carve it; too much, and the egg shatters."
Old Yang continued slowly, "The Wood Ya Crystal not only possesses vast amounts of energy but also contains potent life force. Using it to open the sea eliminates the worry of damaging the vortex, as the life force automatically repairs any harm. Nor is there any need to worry about insufficient Spiritual Power, as the crystal’s vast energy provides an endless supply for the pioneer."
Xu Chen’s eyes were locked onto the Wood Ya Crystal in Old Yang’s hand. At this moment, the crystal acted like a magnet, pinning his gaze firmly.
