It must be said that the Qingming Divine Fruit is truly miraculous, with its effects on aiding comprehension and breaking through realms being to an utmost degree.

Top-tier Ling Medicine!

Lin Chen and his three companions each leveled up without a single hitch, each one doing so even more effortlessly than the last!

Of the four people, aside from Yao Xuanji who had broken through realms the earliest and had only taken one Qingming Divine Fruit, Gu Yuexi and Shang Wenyao each used two.

Lin Chen was clearly the slowest of the four, requiring three!

Even so, the four people together had only consumed a total of eight Qingming Divine Fruits, with plenty of ripe ones still on the tree, enough for their subsequent use, as now they were only one realm away.

Overjoyed, the people shared their insights from this experience.

Lin Chen had been worried that he was the only one with such novel comprehension, but once he began to discuss it, aside from Yao Xuanji who had been the first to breakthrough, the other two women also indicated that they had similar feelings.

Yao Xuanji was baffled, "What is that?"

Lin Chen explained, "It's like when you were breaking through the realm, facing the Thunder Tribulation, I felt as though I had fused with Heaven and Earth, clearly sensing every part of your process of breaking through, as if I myself were undergoing the tribulation. And this process is very different from undergoing my own tribulation, it's very much like the observers have a clear understanding that those involved cannot see."

"Yes, that's the feeling!"

Gu Yuexi added excitedly, "I was shocked at the time. How could there be such a marvelous feeling? I thought I was mistaken, but it turns out everyone felt it!"

Shang Wenyao's eyes sparkled, "You two broke through the realm before me, so I was like partaking in two realm-breaking tribulations. When it came to my own tribulation, everything seemed much simpler, because I had a crystal-clear understanding of the entire process, even to the magnitude of the Thunder Tribulation's power, which I could sense very clearly."

"With that premise in mind, when I faced the falling thunder, I could use my spiritual power efficiently without wasting it, and respond accurately, making the whole process much more relaxed. It felt as if I had gone through it several times, like knowing the road well after frequent travels."

Lin Chen smiled slightly, holding up three fingers, "I'm the dullest, the last in line, so that makes it... three times!"

Yao Xuanji's eyes widened, "Ah, being the first to break through, I didn't get to experience any of what you're talking about. Doesn't that mean I missed out?"

Lin Chen said with a beaming smile, "From the perspective of comprehension, you really did miss out. I think this experience is special, incomparable to any before it. I believe this insight will be beneficial in later comprehending the Breaking of Realms to Quasi-Saint, and even further on."

Yao Xuanji had a resigned expression, "So you're saying that my earlier breakthrough was actually a disadvantage!"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "No worries, it can be remedied later on."

Yao Xuanji looked at Lin Chen in surprise, "How can this be remedied?"

Lin Chen shared his thoughts, "Since it's not just me who has experienced this, it indicates that the Qingming Divine Fruit truly does have this miraculous effect. That is to say, if someone is breaking through a realm within a certain distance while you are contemplating with the Qingming Divine Fruit, then one could engage in it from a unique perspective, having a special experience."

"We still have Qingming Divine Fruits, so in the future, when any of you reach a bottleneck and someone is about to breakthrough and undergo tribulation, we can just go to their side and enter closed-door cultivation, consuming a Qingming Divine Fruit and then entering that mysterious state…"

Everyone's eyes were wide open. Could it really be like this?

Lin Chen had already considered this matter and said with a laugh, "I've only heard that the Qingming Divine Fruit is especially helpful for profound understanding, but I've never heard of it having such a unique ability. After thinking it over myself, maybe we are the first to discover the miraculous effects of the Qingming Divine Fruit."

Gu Yuexi covered her mouth in astonishment. "It can't be, can it? The Blood Demon Palace has had the Qingming Divine Tree for a long time!"

Lin Chen explained, "Yes, the Blood Demon Palace has indeed had it for a long time, and quite a few people must have taken the Qingming Divine Fruit. But the fruit is extremely precious. To give away even one fruit, one must have made a tremendous contribution!"

"Ordinary people who obtain a Qingming Divine Fruit will definitely choose a quiet place to calmly contemplate. The effect of a single Qingming Divine Fruit doesn't last very long. In such a short time, the likelihood that someone else is breaking through their realm and crossing tribulation nearby the place of their contemplation is extremely low. So although they may have mysterious perceptions and breakthroughs, they would rarely have our realization."

Zhen Liuxue pondered, "Daluo Peak doesn't need to cross the Heavenly Tribulation to reach Quasi-Saint. Otherwise, when others break through to Quasi-Saint, you group of Daluo Peaks could each take a Qingming Divine Fruit, then observe the tribulation process nearby in this profound and mysterious way. Wouldn't that be akin to you yourselves breaking through to Quasi-Saint once? With such an understanding, how could you be afraid of failing to break through?"

Lin Chen frowned, looking quite regretful. "Yeah, if we could observe repeatedly like this time, even those with lesser talent would surely succeed!"

After pausing, Lin Chen, unwilling to let it go, asked, "Is there any great commotion when breaking through from Daluo Peak to Quasi-Saint?"

Zhen Liuxue answered, "There's no Thunder Tribulation, but after Enlightenment Path is comprehended, one directly fuses with the Heavenly Dao, and the Sea of Knowledge undergoes changes. Well, there are some other changes too, but these are internal changes and won't cause an earth-shattering response."

Lin Chen excitedly slapped his thigh, "That works too! As long as there's change, it's possible!"

Lin Chen turned his head to look at the three women, "The feelings you had before, did you feel as though you merged with the world, where nothing could be hidden from you?"

The three women, having understood Lin Chen's meaning, all had their eyes light up and nodded in joy.

Gu Yuexi said excitedly, "Although breaking through to Quasi-Saint doesn't involve Heavenly Tribulation, the changes brought about by Enlightenment Path are still traceable. After all, the transition from Daluo Peak to Quasi-Saint is a concrete change!"

"Since there's a change, in this mysterious state of perception, we can sense the subtleties of this change. Although I can't say it'll be as clear as the sensation of someone else Crossing Tribulation, it will definitely benefit us."

Lin Chen was also invigorated, "With a model to observe, even if we can't perceive every minute change of the other party with 100% clarity, it's still better than groping in the dark, right? If it doesn't work once, we'll try twice. After several attempts, we'll surely find the gate to Quasi-Saint!"

Zhen Liuxue listened to Lin Chen's words, her gaze subtle.

That was a Quasi-Saint!

Lin Chen had actually found a shortcut!

If Lin Chen's method really worked, then with the Qingming Divine Tree they had seized, how many Quasi-Saints could he create?

Even though it took a long time for the Qingming Divine Tree to flower and bear fruit, their lifespans were even longer!

As time passed and the Qingming Divine Tree continuously blossomed and bore fruit, maturing over time, Lin Chen could create Quasi-Saints in small batches!

And these wouldn't be counterfeit Quasi-Saints, but genuine ones!
