Ye Chen used every third level as a checkpoint to nurture a Dao.
The more Daos one had, the stronger one's battle prowess would be.
The young geniuses of the same generation as him had at most nurtured a single Dao and produced the embryonic form of a single Great Dao. This was because nurturing a Dao required too much talent, resources, and time. Even the eight major sects could only allow their genius disciples to nurture a single Dao.
However, these elders were different.
Many of them had several Daos. After they reached the Supreme Emperor realm, they spent a lot of time and resources to nurture new Daos, turning them into embryonic forms of Great Daos. It was also because of this that they were much stronger than the geniuses who had also reached the Supreme Emperor realm.
Of course, some of the Supreme Emperor realm elders of some sects could not do it because they did not have enough resources.
"Ye Chen, that's enough!"
