Gu Lan was unsure about the exact nature of the Divine Path Essence, but he absorbed and refined it each time he received it. He knew it was a substance that could enhance his physical condition, similar to the Buddhist Dao Essence he had previously obtained. However, since his physique was already exceptional, the improvements from consuming the Divine Path Essence were less dramatic than before. Nevertheless, absorbing and refining it made his understanding of Rule Power more acute.
Though he had yet to reach the Main God Realm, he was already able to control some of the Rule Power. If he faced the Snow Clan Divine King's trial again, he could use his mastery of the ice and snow Rule Power to navigate the challenge more swiftly.
