"It really happened?!"
Zhou Sui's eyes narrowed.
Indeed, the Cultivation World is very dark, and even those with outstanding talents may not survive.
On the contrary, if one's talent is too high, it might attract the covetousness of other cultivators, making them an even easier target.
"Yes, it indeed happened."
"Some Nascent Soul elders in the Sky Demon Sect did something similar."
"Their own talent isn't very good, only Third-Grade Spirit Root."
"It's just that by flukes, they advanced to Nascent Soul."
"But after becoming Nascent Soul cultivators, their cultivation stalled."
"Even after cultivating for hundreds of years, they couldn't break through to the Mid-Nascent Soul Stage."
"So they targeted some disciples with Heavenly Spirit Root aptitude, hoping to seize their bodies to gain the talents of the Heavenly Spirit Root and take their cultivation to a higher level."
