Crossing

Chen Fei re-entered the mountain peaks of the spiritual treasure, only to find that the simply restored energy within did not offer the profound insights he had experienced earlier, nor could it be absorbed by the Dragon-Elephant Induction Point's technique.

Clearly, only the power refined through the broken ruler would provide substantial assistance to Chen Fei's cultivation.

The broken ruler was now akin to a small wooden bucket, capable of holding only a limited amount of water. Only the water within the bucket had a special effect on Chen Fei.

As for the energy flowing outside the bucket, the broken ruler was powerless.

Of course, the elements that had been simply stored away would gradually accumulate some clever insights over time, which would still be beneficial for cultivation, much like the original Elemental Tide.
