Only upon entering the Golden Core Realm does one truly become a cultivator.
The Justice League comprised eighteen sects, with more than 20,000 Golden Core Monks, over sixty in the Nascent Soul Realm, and at most, a mere seven in the Divinity Transformation Realm. Except for Luo Xue, the remaining six were all puppets Lin Bai had made.
Typically, each sect would have one or two Divinity Transformation Realm elders as figureheads.
However, to reach the Hollow Realm, Divinity Transformation required Soul Condensation. Most of the heavenly treasures needed for this were monopolized by leading sects like the Seven Orthodox Sects. Therefore, Divinity Transformation Realm cultivators wouldn't stay in their sects but would venture out, seeking opportunities.
Wild, suitable heavenly treasures were exceedingly rare, and finding them often required exceptional luck.
