Ordinary True Martial Realm beginners utilize Heaven Rank Lower and Middle Grade martial techniques; Earth Level Martial Arts no longer enhance their strength.

Although Han Li’s realm is only the first level of the True Martial Realm, his Divine Spirit, Spiritual Sense, and True Yuan reserves are equivalent to an ordinary True Martial Realm Sixth Heaven Emperor Wu.

Let alone Earth Level Martial Arts, even Heaven Rank Lower Grade martial techniques can no longer enhance his combat ability. Fortunately, with the embryonic form of his Omniscient Martial True Intent boosting him, most of the martial techniques he has mastered are between Heaven Rank Middle and High Grade, and even Supreme Grade, which can still elevate his combat power.

After the previous trials, Han Li had a clear understanding of his own strength after his breakthrough.

With the boost from the embryonic form of his Omniscient Martial True Intent, all the martial techniques he now wielded had risen by three grades, bursting forth with much more formidable might.

The Divine Desolation Prison Finger and the Seven Kills Blade were Earth-grade Middle Grade Martial Arts; after the boost, they were comparable to Heaven Rank Lower Grade martial techniques. Having cultivated them to perfection, Han Li could unleash combat power equivalent to half a step into the True Martial Realm Seventh Heaven.

The God Slaying Sword Technique was an Earth-grade Superior Martial Art; bolstered, it rivaled Heaven Rank Middle Grade martial techniques. Han Li had reached major accomplishment in it, able to release the combat power of the True Martial Realm’s Seventh Heaven.

The Five Elements Giant Palm Print, also an Earth-grade Superior Martial Art, when boosted, rivaled Heaven Rank Middle Grade martial techniques. Han Li had perfected its practice and could release power akin to half a step into the True Martial Realm Eighth Heaven.

The Xuantian Punch and the Yin and Yang Palm Seal were Earth-Level Extreme Martial Arts, and post-boost, they matched Heaven Rank High Grade Martial Techniques. With major accomplishment in these, Han Li could unleash the combat power of the True Martial Realm Eighth Heaven.

The Sealing Heaven Sword Scripture was an Earth-Level Extreme Martial Art; after the boost, it matched Heaven Rank High Grade Martial Techniques. Perfected by Han Li, it could unleash power akin to half a step into the True Martial Realm Ninth Heaven.

When deploying the Sealing Heaven Sword Scripture with the Heaven Rank High Grade Sword, Dragon Abyss Sword, its might could be further elevated to rival the combat power of the True Martial Realm Ninth Heaven.

The Six Harmonies Eight Desolations Fist and the Buddha’s Prison Seal were Heaven Rank Lower Grade martial techniques; post-boost, they matched Heaven Rank Supreme Grade martial techniques. With them perfected, Han Li could explode with the pinnacle combat abilities of the True Martial Realm.

The peak of the True Martial Realm, the fully realized True Martial Realm Ninth Heaven, represents a unique state.

Each realm is divided into Nine Heavens, and further categorized into the early, middle, late, and peak stages—first to third heaven as the early stage, fourth to sixth heaven as middle, and seventh to ninth heaven as late.

Those who perfect the Ninth Heaven stand at the peak, a half-step from the next Big Realm, and also bear another moniker.

For instance, the peak of the Myriad Phenomena Realm is called “half-step True Martial Realm,” the peak of the True Martial Realm is referred to as “half-step Divine Yuan Realm,”…; the peak of the Saint Abyss Realm isn’t called “half-step Heaven Imperial Realm” or “half-step Great Emperor,” but “Great Saint.”

Though the Great Saint and the Heaven Imperial Realm seem only a half-step apart, in reality, the difference is quite substantial. Cultivators who reach the Great Saint must ascend to another domain and then elevate once more to step into the Heaven Imperial Realm.

The intermediate domain is known as the Quasi Emperor Realm. To become an Emperor, one must first become a Quasi Emperor, a challenge that has vexed countless Great Saints, not to mention the arduous transition from Quasi Emperor to Great Emperor.

Originally, there was no Quasi Emperor Realm between the Great Saint and the Great Emperor, but forebearers discovered a vast gap between these two realms, blocking numerous Great Saints, leading to the creation of the Quasi Emperor Realm.

First stepping into the Quasi Emperor, and then into the Great Emperor, is relatively much easier.

Directly transitioning from Great Saint to Great Emperor is extremely difficult, but if one first steps into the Quasi Emperor, then attempting to enter the Great Emperor becomes more than ten times easier.

“Half-step Emperor Wu, how strong I truly am,” Han Li mused to himself as he stood up and looked at his hands, never before feeling them as powerful as they were at that moment.

He was, after all, only at the first heaven of the True Martial Realm but already possessed the peak combat power of the realm. Although it was just ordinary peak True Martial Realm strength, who would believe this if it spread? It would certainly cause an uproar.

Han Li found it quite normal, for he possessed the ultimate Martial Way and a King Grade Pill. His True Yuan, Divine Spirit, Spiritual Sense, and others were comparable to those of the Sixth Heaven of the True Martial Realm, not to mention his mastery of many Heaven Rank High and Supreme Grade martial techniques.

Heaven Rank High and Supreme Grade martial techniques are of the caliber of the Divine Yuan Realm. With Han Li having cultivated them to major accomplishment and perfection, the boost to his strength was immense.

“I wonder, if I stimulate my Divine Sense, could my strength climb to the level of the Divine Yuan Realm and compete with those Emperor Wu?” Han Li stood with his hands clasped behind his back, pondering this question.

Han Li didn’t hold much hope.

He had never seen an Emperor Wu of the Divine Yuan Realm, but he had recently accessed information on them, documenting the combat ability of Emperor Wu from the Divine Yuan Realm.

For one at the Myriad Phenomena Realm peak to step into the True Martial Realm, they must condense their Martial Way True Intent into a Martial True Pill, and then they qualify as an Emperor Wu of the True Martial Realm.

If an Emperor Wu of the True Martial Realm wished to elevate their cultivation, they must continually refine their Martial True Pill until it reaches primal unity, signifying the True Martial Realm peak.

The peak True Martial Realm cultivators aspiring to step into the Divine Yuan Realm and achieve Emperor Wu must base their efforts on the Martial True Pill, nourished by Martial Way True Yuan and unified with the Divine Spirit. All three aspects must cultivate together to foster the Martial Primordial Spirit.

Once the Martial Primordial Spirit has formed, strength soars tremendously. With a wave of a hand, one can harness the Power of Heaven and Earth, converting it into their own mighty force, capable of plucking stars and shattering large planets with a single strike.

Upon reaching the Divine Yuan Realm, Spiritual Sense evolves into Divine Sense, undergoing a qualitative transformation. Divine Sense can attack and kill foes, even materialize into weapons, and if merged with weapons that have been personally refined, their might significantly increases.

To attain the Divine Yuan Realm…

Even a newly promoted Emperor Wu of the Divine Yuan Realm is far beyond the realm of an Emperor Wu at the True Martial Realm peak in terms of strength—a casual palm strike could kill multiple ordinary True Martial Realm peak cultivators.

Han Li estimated that the gap in combat abilities between the True Martial Realm peak and an Emperor Wu of the Divine Yuan Realm was likely much more significant than just tenfold; perhaps dozens or even a hundredfold.
