As a cultivator at Level 6 of the Great Vehicle Stage, Xu Que had sensed a great growth of his strength compared to what he had had at the Crossing Calamity Stage! This was the last threshold to the Half Celestial Realm. Cultivators at this stage would focus on accumulating their strength as they were about to cross this threshold. They used to call cultivators at the Half Celestial Realm Celestials.
However, Bai Cailing, the Holy Virgin of the Jade Lake, told Xu Que that the name of Celestials was incorrect! Cultivators at the Half Celestial Realm, the Human Celestial Realm, or the Earth Celestial Realm were not real Celestials. Real Celestials had to be immortal, which was still impossible for people in the World of Near Celestials!
Undeniably, cultivators at the Half Celestial Realm or higher stages were much more powerful than cultivators at the Form Synthesis Stage, Crossing Calamity Stage, and even the Great Vehicle Stage.
