To enter the Golden Core Realm, one must not only establish the Dao they cultivate.
But also have an exceptionally strong Divine Soul, for only with such strength can one avoid being invaded by Heart Demons during the breakthrough.
Although Tian Lin is currently at the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, his experiences at the Immortal Sinking Pond have made his Divine Soul nearly as strong as those in the Golden Core Realm.
As for the Dao—
He possesses two Dao Seeds obtained from the Fairy Cave, but unfortunately, these two Dao Seeds are useless under the current conditions.
However, Tian Lin knows how to obtain 'Dao Seeds'!
He recalls that during his first venture into the secret realm, Mei Xianfu bore a fruit, which only enhanced her Divine Soul. Yet, the conditions reveal to Tian Lin that for him, the fruit is a Dao Seed.
Thus, to obtain Dao Seeds and enter the Golden Core Realm, Tian Lin must ultimately focus on the secret realm.
