Take controlling Upper Grade Magical Artifacts, for instance.
A normal Cultivator at the Peak of Qi Refining could only barely manage them.
But he, being at Half-Step Foundation Establishment, could control Upper Grade Magical Artifacts with ease. This was one of his greatest advantages.
The Spiritual Power of a Half-Step Foundation Establishment cultivator was more abundant, which not only gave them greater endurance in battle but also a better chance at their second attempt at Foundation Establishment.
However, there was one difference between the second attempt at Foundation Establishment and the first.
During a second attempt, one's foundation was more easily damaged.
'Therefore, if my second attempt at Foundation Establishment fails, it's highly likely my Realm will fall and my foundation will be severely damaged. But that's still better than perishing during the breakthrough attempt.'
