In the end, it came down to Dalvin's own patience. Both options had their risks and their dangers, all of which led to a painful death, so it was up to him to weigh in on it and decide which one was better for him.
Ultimately, he glanced at his system panel once more and decided to wait for daytime. In the meantime, he hastily absorbed 7% of his pills, leaving 13% of the total stock remaining and filling up the blood qi requirement for the realm.
While Dalvin would love to not have to sleep for one hour, he understood each of the system's functions, their 'whys' and 'hows' basically.
Why did the system need to accumulate blood qi or cultivation base to breakthrough? Because it skipped the sub-realm practice and smashed it into one breakthrough.
How does it do this? By gathering the equivalent energy you would have consumed/used while practicing normally and exploding it all at once in order to facilitate the breakthrough.
