The twins quickly entered the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm and accessed the system to see it.
[Breaking Bounds: 01]
[Restrictions can be checked with the AI]
As they looked at that, Sister Orb took the chance to explain. After all, they would definitely ask her. [It's pretty similar to the title's name itself. It allows you to break free from one bound as long as it's not related to the bounds imposed by the system. However, you can only use it once!]
"Breaking one bound once...this is quite a generic explanation, Sister Orb. Can you give us an example?" Rean asked, wanting clarification.
[It's quite simple. Let's say you fall into a trap and have no way out. If you use this skill, the system would intervene and take you out of there. That's not all, of course. It isn't only related to dangerous situations. Let's say you try to fly out of the planet, but its gravity is too strong for you to succeed. As soon as you use Breakers of Bounds, you will break free from the gravity and escape the planet.]
She then warned the twins, saying, [However, you can't ask it to do anything too big. For example, there's no way the system can break the bonds of time so that you can become immortals. That far surpasses the level of what it can do. Do you understand the concept?]
Roan nodded in response as he could not help but say, "That's a useful ability."
Rean agreed with him. "Indeed. No wonder it has only one use. If we could use it all the time, even if it cost a lot of Destiny Points, it would still be too overpowered. A single-use skill will force us to think well on where we should utilize it."

Right after, Rean looked at Roan and asked, "Do you think we should keep it for safety measures or use it in some other field?"
"If you're asking about other fields, that means you have an idea on where to use it, right?" Roan asked back.
Rean smiled in response as he replied, "I do have an idea." Rean then looked at Sister Orb before asking, "Would we be able to use it to break the bonds of a cultivation realm? For example, can we break through to the highest level possible straight away?"
Roan had to admit Rean had a very good idea. If they headed straight into the highest cultivation realm in existence, wouldn't they be able to finish the system's task straight away? There would be no more enemies for them.
Unfortunately... [Of course not! If it's just a single realm, I believe the system can support it. And that's because you're only in the Nascent Soul Realm. If you were in the Elemental Transformation Realm and wanted to break the bounds to enter the Transition Realm, that would be impossible due to the energy difference. If you want to use it to make a breakthrough, the best moment would be now. I can't guarantee that it'll work between the Soul Transformation and Saint Realm either.]
Roan couldn't help but add, "As I see it, it seems that the System's level is deeply rooted to our cultivations."
[You're right. However, the Breakers of Bounds skill was acquired while you were in the Nascent Soul Realm, so it's useless if you think you can keep it for later. The skill itself won't get stronger. Its strength is fixed at the level you acquired it.] Sister Orb also mentioned, [You better not complain about the restrictions. In my eyes, this is already a very overpowered skill as it is.]

"Tch...seems to be too good to be true." Rean obviously lamented at the restrictions. Well, the system itself mentioned that it had restrictions when they first entered the Dimensional Realm.
Rean and Roan began to ponder after that. They were still in the Middle Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. If they used it to break through into the Soul Transformation Realm, that would save them at least a few years of hard cultivation. However, they wouldn't have it in case an emergency comes up. Now that the Soul Gem System was barred from being used in dangerous situations, that might be their only life-saving method.
[You can take your time to think about it. Don't forget that breaking the bounds of a trap or the bounds of a cultivation realm aren't the only types of bounds that exist.]
In the end, the twins reached the same conclusion. "Let's keep it. Be it for safety or anything else, I believe there will come a chance to use it in the future. Besides, it's not like we aren't confident about our chances in entering the Soul Transformation Realm anyway."
[Smart decision.] Sister Orb was satisfied with their answer. [To be honest, using this skill to enter the Soul Transformation Realm would not be a good idea. After all, the Soul Transformation Realm requires one to find their own path. If you entered it through brute force, you would be severely lacking against other cultivators at the same level.]
Those words immediately made Rean fall into deep thought. "I wonder what exactly my path is. Unlike the previous realms, I can't simply accumulate enough energy to break through, right?"
[That's correct. The Soul Gem System's Dark and Light Element Cultivation Technique will help you with everything related to the rest of the breakthrough. But the thing about path can only be found by yourself. It's beyond the system's ability. Well, it's not because it's too powerful, but because the system can't choose a path for someone else, no one can.]
Roan snorted after hearing those words. "What's the big issue with it? You just need to follow whatever you believe, right? As long as you truly do that, the breakthrough will happen normally."
Rean looked at Roan with surprise written all over his face. "Do you already know your path?"
Roan looked back at Rean as if he was a fool. "You should know what kind of path I would take better than anyone else."
Rean put a hand on his face, seeing how idiotic his question was. "Forget it. What else could you follow if not something related to death?"
Roan nodded, not putting much thought into it.
[Well, only Rean doesn't know what to do, but he has a lot of time. Anyways, you have a total of 34402 Destiny Points. What will you buy this time?]
