breaking through the Five Cosmic Realms is a slim hope.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Unless they’re forcibly pushed upward by vast resources, or blessed with a stroke of luck.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I happened to have both—a bit of resources and a bit of luck—and ultimately broke through to the Five Cosmic Realms.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I even regret it now; if I’d known, I’d have waited for you, Younger Brother, to obtain the Star Seed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, I’m just joking.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi nodded, not paying it much mind, his eyes fixed on the information on the large screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vast numbers of geniuses are stuck at the Fourth Cosmic Realm, unable to break through—and they are by far the most numerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many of our Senior Brothers and Sisters are among them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with the Star Seed, their futures have changed—they are no longer part of the first group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Second Senior Brother Houdun took a sip of hot tea, savored its flavor, then continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next is the second category: Star Region-level geniuses.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Their upper limit is higher, with a high probability of breaking through to the Fifth Cosmic Realm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As long as nothing goes wrong, they’ll almost certainly break through.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But even so, it’s not easy—it demands immense time, resources, and cultivation points.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Master Lei Zun also spoke up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Breaking through to the Fifth Cosmic Realm is a transformation of life itself, tied to the comprehension of cosmic laws.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It also relates intimately to the Source Core and one’s personal will.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To break through, you must first master a complete cosmic law, or three true meanings of spatial law.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the simplest part—most Star System-level geniuses can achieve it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi nodded; he estimated over 90% of the peak Fourth Cosmic Realm cultivators in the Tai Chu Sacred Ground had already mastered a complete cosmic law.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Zun continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then, your will must reach the required standard.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Will is related to spirit, but it is not the same.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“High spiritual power does not mean strong will.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“During the breakthrough, each member endures the impact of cosmic will—if your will is insufficient,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You may die!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Therefore, to break through to the Fifth Cosmic Realm, you must pass at least ninety levels of the Dream Bridge!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In the later levels of the Dream Bridge, spiritual power becomes less effective; only an extremely strong will can carry you through.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is unlike comprehending laws or cultivating bloodline—it requires considerable time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi nodded, feeling he had learned something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never known that breaking a major realm required a will threshold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The impact of cosmic will—just imagining its power sent a chill through him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Breaking a major realm could actually cost your life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder the Fifth Cosmic Realm is a watershed—so few ever break through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once you do, you soar beyond all others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You become a pillar of the entire human race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the weakest Fifth Cosmic Realm being is far stronger than a Fourth Cosmic Realm cultivator, with a vastly extended lifespan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Zun poured himself another cup of hot tea:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Beyond law comprehension and will, you also need the aid of heavenly treasures and earthly essences.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Breaking through the Fifth Cosmic Realm is a holistic transformation—soul and body merge, soul core and source core unite as one.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This process requires heavenly treasures and vast amounts of energy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You must purchase a set of these treasures; each costs exorbitantly, starting at several billion cultivation points.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Spending tens of billions of cultivation points is perfectly normal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s why Star Region-level geniuses remain stuck at this stage—it’s unavoidable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And you, Lin Qi, as a Legendary-level genius, will spend even more.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi exhaled slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never realized breaking into the Fifth Cosmic Realm would cost tens of billions of cultivation points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But once he broke through, his combat power would skyrocket—it wouldn’t be wasted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially as a genius of his caliber—he felt he could instantly gain the strength of an Invincible after breaking through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He silently noted it down; though he sensed he was still far from breaking through, he prepared early just in case.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Second Senior Brother Houdun pointed to the third group on the large screen:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s a third category—the final type of genius.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They are the fewest in number, all top-tier geniuses.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Besides preparing the three requirements for breaking through the Fifth Cosmic Realm,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They must also continue to comprehend cosmic laws.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They must keep comprehending, until they reach their own limit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Lin Qi asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have a question: why push so hard to comprehend cosmic laws?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even to boost combat power, there’s no need to spend so much time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“With their talent and earning ability, top-tier geniuses could break through to the Fifth Cosmic Realm in just a few thousand years.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Once they break through, their combat power transforms—becoming even more terrifying.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So why linger at the Fourth Cosmic Realm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Zun set down his teacup and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll explain this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He organized his thoughts:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The difficulty of comprehending cosmic laws before and after breaking through the Fifth Cosmic Realm is entirely different.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When our human race was weak,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Countless ancestors frantically cultivated, raised their bloodline, and comprehended cosmic laws.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They broke through one realm after another.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In their understanding, once they broke into a new realm, their senses improved, and cosmic laws became clearer in perception.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Comprehending laws became easier.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They were exceptionally gifted—the earliest Legendary-level geniuses.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Soon, some broke through to the Fifth Cosmic Realm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But they discovered they were wrong.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Once they broke through to the Fifth Cosmic Realm, though they gained far greater power,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The cosmic laws in their perception didn’t become clearer—they grew hazy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Their affinity with all laws actually decreased.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After years of research, summarization, and synthesis, they reached a conclusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Once you break through the Fifth Cosmic Realm, you fully mature.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your affinity with cosmic laws plummets drastically;
