Especially for a practitioner who just ascended to the ninth stage realm, as compared to established ninth stage realm top experts, the difference between their abilities was like heaven and earth.
The reason was because when practitioners finished the process of forging their bodies and advanced into the ninth stage realm, it was equivalent to entering a brand new territory.
No matter if it was in terms of the flow of Profound Energy within the body, ability to connect between heaven and earth or actual combat style, it was totally different from when they were in the eighth stage realm.
