Advancing to the Heaven-Controlling Realm

The unprecedented surge of energy within the body further intensified the activity of the Rc Cells, which were already excited from the hunt.

Shisui was very familiar with this feeling.

He knew that the energy in his body had reached the limit he could store at this stage.

Judging from the current situation, a promotion is imminent.

Shisui released his senses, wanting to confirm the situation around his location once again before advancing.

This area is located in the heart of the battlefield.

At this moment, even the insects that the Insect Mother had left behind were either dead or had fled.

Even the once lush flowers, grasses, and trees were completely reduced to ashes by the aftershocks of the battle and the energy absorbed by the Dragon Whisker.

Within a radius of a thousand miles, this area is devoid of any living creature.

There shouldn't be any problem with not being disturbed.

However, Shisui will not abandon the step of implementing protective measures because of this.

Feather Powder began to spread, passing through the remaining black mist and the wandering Radiant Feathers.

A fog wall was formed directly around the battlefield, blocking all outside observation.

After doing all that, Shisui took a deep breath.

Now, he has the black mist with the participation of the Banshee Sea Demon, three complete corpses of the Heaven-Controlling Realm, several supplies of food previously collected from the Heaven Realm Awakened, and a large amount of Flesh Crystals.

Breaking through the bottleneck of the Heaven-Controlling Realm is more than enough.

He focused his mind, fully activating his [Predator] talent, transforming himself into a cocoon of Metamorphosis.

This time, he didn't even leave Kagune to form a second line of defense on the outer layer.

Firstly, because the current strength of Rc Cells is not something that can be destroyed by just anyone.

Secondly, this promotion is no small matter, and we must give it our all.

The Shisui soul, carrying immense energy, circulates throughout the body, adjusting itself to its optimal state.

Then, without hesitation, the soul began to break through the bottleneck of the Heaven-Controlling Realm.

If the bottleneck of the Heaven Realm is like a towering dam, blocking the flood of awakened beings who aspire to ascend to the Heaven Realm.

Therefore, the bottleneck of the Heaven-Controlling Realm is like a chasm between planets.

They appear to be very close, yet the distance between them is measured in light-years.

To truly arrive, one must rely on sufficient energy to forcefully charge towards the goal.

To outsiders, the awakening of the Banshee Sea Demon appears to happen in an instant, but it is the result of expending a great deal of energy to break through its limits.

This is why, after successfully advancing to the Heaven-Controlling Realm, it is especially important to replenish energy and stabilize the realm.

In the process of promotion, it is common to end up with things like going astray, failing at the last minute, or even dying.

During the period before the Planetary Will slumbered, there wasn't even a single successful case.

Shisui sensed the unfathomable bottleneck of the Heaven-Controlling Realm and, without hesitation, began to pour energy into it.

As his promotion began, Shisui completely lost all awareness of the outside world.

Meanwhile, on the west coast of central Lantiao Continent, a group of the Heaven Realm Sea Race quietly landed.

They were very cautious, and there was a period of time between them getting ashore.

They had no choice but to be extremely careful.

Not long ago, a certain area here was the battlefield of the great war between the Heaven-Controlling Realm and the Planetary Will.

Even if it's highly likely that no life forms below the Heaven-Controlling Realm have survived, there's still a possibility that residual energy waves might remain.

Although they are called Heaven Realm Awakened, they are nothing but a fart in front of the Heaven-Controlling Realm.

The lingering shockwaves from the attack were enough to make them take it seriously, or even cause their deaths.

"Investigate and report the situation."

"No Psychic Energy fluctuations beyond the capabilities of Heaven Realm Awakened have been detected at this time."

The squad leader who was asking the questions showed a hint of confusion.

That shouldn't be the case. The battle just ended here not long ago; there should at least be aftershocks and traces of the fighting.

Could it be that the planet's self-repair mechanism smoothed out the Psychic Energy fluctuations here?

But that doesn't make sense either.

His Majesty's successful return proves that the Planetary Will lost the previous battle.

If the Planetary Consciousness, which is responsible for ensuring the normal operation of the planet and maintaining ecological balance, falls into a dormant state, then the planet's self-repairing ability will inevitably be affected.

In theory, the Psychic Energy disorder caused by the battle shouldn't be completely resolved so quickly.

Can't you see the unrepaired subsidence and cracks still clinging to the bare land?

That's proof that it hasn't been fully repaired yet.

Something must have happened inside, and it might even be related to the newly promoted Heaven-Controlling Realm.

The captain silently guessed to himself, then spoke to the others.

"Let's go a little further in and confirm."

He had no intention of going too deep; he just wanted to find a place with higher ground so he could get a distant view.

To be honest, he wants to go back now.

The atmosphere here is too desolate, empty and lifeless.

Those who arrive here alive will instinctively want to get away.

But there was nothing he could do; he had been assigned a task by His Majesty.

If we don't bring back at least some useful intelligence...

Then he can forget about taking advantage of the current shortage of people in the Sea Race's leadership to get a high-ranking position.

Whether he can keep his current position is another matter.

The team, with each member spaced a few hundred meters apart, slowly made their way deeper into the Lantiao Continent.

Until they saw a large patch of white fog suddenly appear in the wilderness in the distance.

The squad leader immediately signaled the team members following behind to stop.

The fog completely blocked the team's advance.

Moreover, the fog wall covered an astonishingly large area.

The captain looked around but couldn't find any openings at all.

Most importantly, he couldn't sense the Psychic Energy fluctuations emanating from the mist.

There are only two possibilities in this situation.

Firstly, this is just ordinary fog, a natural phenomenon, so there is no Psychic Energy fluctuation.

Secondly, it's possible that the combined power of all this mist is far greater than his own, making it impossible for him to perceive it at all.

The captain believes it's most likely the latter.

Therefore, he dared not gamble with his own life and the lives of his teammates.

"We're retreating."

"Boss, are you really not going to go check it out?"

One team member advised, "This place is clearly unusual; there might be some very important intelligence there."

The captain glanced at him, offered no explanation, and simply replied, "Obey orders."

Tsk, I'll have to fire that guy when I get back.

The captain turned and left.

But the moment he turned around, something unexpected happened.

The thick white fog suddenly seemed to come alive, surging violently.

Black and red Feather Powder, almost overwhelming, quickly replaced the original white fog.

Then, it suddenly spread, instantly engulfing a group of Sea Race who were preparing to evacuate.

Before suffocating and dying, the captain vaguely sensed a pressure he had only ever felt from the Dragon King in the fog.

He lost consciousness, and in just one second he completely lost his life.

The black and red mist was still spreading, clearly indicating that Shisui's target was not this group of people at all.

"Click... click..."

The Sea Race's corpse was crushed.

Shisui felt the energy flowing into his body, but for him, whose body was severely lacking in energy at the moment, it was just a drop in the ocean.

The hungry Ghouls cast their gaze upon this continent, and black mist rapidly spread.
