Inside the foggy space in the 'Stone of Time', Shun Long opened his eyes and exhaled once, before he turned his attention to the 12 golden balls of qi that were hovering above his head.
After breaking through to the Dao King realm, Shun Long truly realized how much more qi his 'Monarch's Hourglass' required compared to other cultivation techniques.
During this past month that he had spent in seclusion, Shun Long had spent nearly 10.000 high-grade spirit stones before he finally reached the early rank 2 of the Dao King realm.
If it was any other early-stage Dao King who had absorbed all of this qi, they would have certainly reached the middle stages of the Dao King realm.
However, Shun Long still knew that the benefits of the 'Monarch's Hourglass' far outweighed the disadvantage of needing to absorb enormous amounts of pure qi.
