Even back in the days of the Ten Thousand Laws Palace, the cultivation of True Pill Masters required plunder from a domain of spirit treasures just to nurture less than a handful of True Men to achieve Core Formation Middle Stage, as for the Late Period Ascendants, they were even fewer.
In the ten years since Li Ji'an returned to Biyun Sect, relying on the Spirit Vein Land of the sect, he merely solidified his Early Golden Core Stage cultivation but couldn't progress by even a tenth.
If things continued this way, he would need at least a hundred years to advance to Core Formation Middle Stage.
As for the cultivation after advancing to Core Formation Middle Stage, relying solely on the supply of Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Vein Land would be even more challenging; without considering the bottlenecks, it would take probably two cycles of sixty years.
