Ascending to the Heaven Realm

Dragon Whisker's true form has fallen into slumber, but his "claws" remain active near Yinling Valley.

The Planetary Will's will sealed away the Dragon Whisker, and as compensation, it would not interfere too much with the various hunting activities of these vines.

At most, we'll intervene when they wipe out a species or cause irreversible damage to a planet.

Just like the Dragon King, who didn't intervene when the Human Race fleet was initially attacked.

In a sense, the Planetary Will of Ruolan Star can be considered a semi-laissez-faire approach.

"Boom--!"

With a loud bang, the Dragon Whisker's beard vines twisted and turned.

They formed a gigantic fist, or perhaps a raging python.

It slammed into the solidified wall of mist with unparalleled force.

This attack contained half the power of the Heaven-Controlling Realm, making it incredibly powerful.

However, the defense formed by Feather Powder is not so easy to break through.

After being compressed, the fog quickly released some of the pressure and then rebounded with tremendous force.

At the same time, the moment the fist touches the wall of mist, the Radiant Feathers hidden within will also shred the vines on the surface of the fist.

The fist made of vines naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait for a counterattack to land on it.

They threw a punch and immediately withdrew it, minimizing their contact time with Radiant Feathers.

Next, seize the opportunity and gather strength.

Then he suddenly threw another punch.

As a result, the attacks kept piling up, leaving the dented fog wall no time to recover.

Without Shisui hand, the fog wall could only passively endure wave after wave of fierce attacks.

Ultimately, they were forced to retreat in defeat.

However, at this moment, Shisui had no time to pay attention to what was happening outside.

The ascension to the Heaven Realm has begun.

"Bang--!"

A deafening thud resounded inside my body.

It was a torrent of Psychic Energy crashing against the thick, towering bottleneck.

This is the first real bottleneck that Shisui has encountered since becoming an Awakened One.

Unlike other realms where advancement is smooth and effortless, the Heaven Realm is more like a threshold for touching one's own limits.

For this reason, those with average talent and mediocre aptitude have relatively lower barriers to advancement to the Heaven Realm.

However, it's hard to say whether such an ordinary person can even reach the threshold of the Heaven Realm.

Moreover, the threshold to the Heaven Realm is a difficult hurdle for every Awakened One, a challenge that tests their own limits.

There's no such thing as an easy way to cross that threshold.

The topic then returned to Shisui.

The torrent of Psychic Energy crashed against the bottleneck dam like a ferocious beast, producing a deafening roar.

The powerful impact caused the entire dam to tremble violently, as if it might collapse at any moment.

But the bottleneck still managed to stop this attack.

However, the cracks on the blood-stained walls had deepened even further.

Beside Shisui, large amounts of flesh and blood were being absorbed by the predatory organs.

More Psychic Energy was poured into his body, and the crimson on the dam deepened.

The Psychic Energy receded like a tide.

But in the next moment, an even more terrifying force was brewing.

It was a tsunami that had been building up its power, and it hurtled towards the dam with unparalleled force.

"Bang--!"

This time the force was even greater, and it even subtly stirred up a Psychic Energy storm within Shisui's body.

The instant the loud noise reached him, Shisui felt as if his body was being torn apart.

No, perhaps it really has been torn apart.

Shisui, as Ghoul, Zi Sui's super-strong self-healing ability, brought about by the insane proliferation rate of his Rc Cells, made him seem as if he had never been injured.

"Snap!"

A faint cracking sound was mixed in.

Shisui immediately caught the faint movement.

If you extend your perception over this point, you'll discover that at the edge of the bottleneck, an extremely deep and long crack has appeared.

He knew this was a sign that the dam was about to collapse.

This is a golden opportunity; you must know that this crack, if left unattended, will eventually heal.

Promotion requires a burst of energy; the longer you delay, the slimmer your chances become.

Not letting this golden opportunity slip by, Shisui immediately commanded the surging Psychic Energy within his body to press his advantage.

"Bang! Bang!! Bang!!"

Each impact was more ferocious than the last.

Each time, the Psychic Energy surge expands further, relentlessly pushing towards the bottleneck.

The numerous cracks in the corners became even deeper.

The fine cracks on the wall, which were initially scattered, have now merged into a continuous mass.

"Click... click..."

Finally, after the fifth impact, the dam could no longer remain intact.

A corner of the wall shattered, turning into fine fragments of Psychic Energy that vanished.

These Psychic Energy powders will be incorporated into the Psychic Energy flood, aiding in the breaching of the dam.

The moment the wall crumbled was like toppling a domino.

Along that broken corner, the bottleneck shattered inch by inch.

It could no longer restrain Shisui's ascent to the Heaven Realm.

Meanwhile, in the valley outside...

The vines of the Dragon Whisker had already reached a short distance from Shisui.

Once inside the thick fog, the vines' movement was greatly slowed down.

The "ghost wall" formed by Spatial Energy once drove these vines away.

But these vines aren't so easily fooled.

More and more vines are pouring in from all directions. Since we don't know which way to go, we might as well go back the way we came.

They relentlessly pressed closer to Shisui.

When they were about ten meters in front of him, the Kagune swirling around him moved.

Some of them have withdrawn from the work of sucking flesh and blood.

The Bikaku blazed with Blade Scales, and with a few swings, swathes of vines were neatly severed.

For a moment, Bikaku was like a lawnmower.

Furthermore, the Bikaku possesses the ability to devour its prey.

The vines were shredded and absorbed by the gigantic Bikaku, transformed into pure energy, and supplied to the central Shisui.

Having just crossed the threshold of the Heaven Realm, Shisui now needs a large amount of energy to consolidate his cultivation.

The flesh and blood were decreasing at a visible rate, and it looked like it was about to run out.

So the vines arrived just in time.

It was as if a black hole had appeared inside Shisui's body, devouring energy.

The massive surge of Psychic Energy that was trying to break through the bottleneck poured into it, and then vanished without a trace, as if it had disappeared into thin air.

It's easy to imagine how terrifying the increase in the scale of Psychic Energy reserves within Shisui's body was after his advancement.

At least, once this void is filled and his cultivation is stabilized, Shisui will no longer need external force to control the Feather Powder to cover the valley.

He was able to do it with the Psychic Energy reserves within his body.

It's more than enough.

The flesh and blood Shisui Zisui were completely absorbed in a short time. Now, all the Kagune had time to join the hunting party.

At the same time, having passed the threshold of promotion, Shisui was also able to spare some attention to control a large number of Feather Powder.

Thus, the hunt for the vines officially began.
