Lin Wu felt far more powerful than before after breaking through but realized that his spirit Qi was the same overall. It was a strange feeling, and he didn't know what to think of it fully.
Only when he looked at the spirit Qi needed for the next upgrade did he realize something.
"Huh? The amount needed didn't increase?" Lin Wu questioned.

ANSWER: The Shell Initiation stage is the shortest stage of the Dao Shell realm and as soon as the cultivator starts to use spirit Qi to form the Dao Shell, they would reach the Shell Genesis stage.
The Shell Initiation stage is mostly a realm for stabilization as the cultivator or beast decides what shape do they want their Dao Shell to be. The shell outline can still be modified in this stage and once the shell starts to form, it is hard to change its shape.
