Huang Dragon's Hidden World, Dragon Celestial Pool.
In Cain's separate dimension, a significant change was rapidly occurring. This change came from the long accumulation of what seemed like several months already.
Cain had no way to tell the passage of time. But it truly felt like such a long time had already slipped by his fingers.
Without rest, he cultivated Qi and refined Spirit energy relentlessly.
And now, after massive accumulations of both his Mental Psyche and dantian, Cain had finally reached a critical turning point in his Martial cultivation.
Flashes of luminous blue Lightning continually spewed in the minor dimension.
The violently color-mixed sky combined with Cain's luminous blue Lightning made for enchanting scenery. Like a thunderstorm was in full bloom.
At this moment, Cain sat in a cultivation state, eyes closed in deep focus, his body completely relaxed.
On the center of his forehead, a vague insignia symbol of a Lightning-covered Dragon had formed.
And continually flowing out the Lightning symbol was waves of Minor Lightning Law essence.
The Minor Lightning Law essence raged all about, sparkling and crackling with thunderous booms.
Despite all the chaos, Cain didn't feel disturbed in the slightest.
In fact, under this Lightning environment, a sense of security formed as if he was developing another part of himself.
This process of cultivation was a very special one.
Cain wasn't sure how long it took to reach this point. Truthfully, it was as if nearly six months had passed.
But during this seemingly long duration, his accumulation of both his dantian's energies and mental psyche perception reached the absolute zenith of the Innate Lord realm.
Without any difficulties, he breezed past each minor boundary, eventually reaching the absolute zenith of the Extreme Innate Lord realm.
And now, his accumulations reached the point where he was only a hair-breadth away from comprehending the Early Stage of Minor Lightning Law essence!
This signifies the first steps in breaking into the Sky Ruler realm. Only through the comprehension of more powerful Source Law essence would any Martial cultivators be able to advance on their Martial Path.
It was a rigid standard but an understandable one.
Source Law essence contains evolving properties mixed within it. The essence provides nourishment to both one's mental psyche and dantian, allowing for one to seek out stronger forms of Heaven and Earth Origin energy.
Because Source Law essence contains an unending amount of complex properties and mysterious elements, martial cultivators can only slowly familiarize themselves with it. The slow familiarzation is the Minor boundary that separates each stage of comprehension and absorption.
At the threshold stage, an Innate Lord expert would need to continually comprehend and then absorb 20% of Minor Law essence.
This constant nourishment rises one's entire being, pushing to the point where they could eventually seek out the next boundary of Minor Source Law essence.
That is the Early Stage Minor Lightning Law for Cain.
To transition from the Threshold stage to the Early Stage is an incredibly dangerous process for any Martial cultivator.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt the Innate Lord Realm, one just needed to comprehend a small portion of 20% Minor Source Law essence to breakthrough.
But for the Sky Ruler realm, one needs to intake a small portion of 50% of Minor Source Law essence!
It was an immense disparity. Just one slightly wrong move can lead to a severe injury to the mental psyche.
And healing mental psyches' injuries is a complicated process. Only World Spirit Master with extremely high attainments in the Soul path can just barely achieve this.
Even greater the risk in this process is the possibility of the mental psyche completely collapsing. Once that happens, there would be no coming back; the Martial cultivator would turn into a vegetable.
This was basically the equivalent of death!
Martial cultivation was never meant to be a smooth road for anyone. The more one seeks from Heaven and Earth, the higher the probability of perishing without a corpse.
It was a seemingly equal balance of the Heavenly Dao that all lifeforms follow.
To go against this rigid rule requires one to be a genuine, heaven-defying lifeform.
And this is where the Source Law attainment path plays an immensely critical role.
Cain wasn't sure what would be the standard for God Galaxies geniuses at this level.
With the massive foundation of Martial cultivators here, it is entirely possible for a genius to receive complete shortcuts on breaking major boundaries with zero negative effects.
But of course, these geniuses would be weaker than those who can naturally break through higher boundaries.
This would be a showcase of their superior origin attainment path levels, revealing how high their future potential would be.
Cain was puzzled about where he stacked up against natural geniuses. All he could say for sure is that his own attainment path levels on Source Law, Heaven and Earth, and Spiritual Laws had immensely improved.
His foundation on comprehending and controlling the various forms of energy formulating the universe underwent significant enhancement.
So naturally, Cain's Martial Road was smoother than most. Breaking through the various minor boundaries of the Innate Lord realm was a simple breeze for him.
And even now, Cain was having a smooth time comprehending Early Stage Minor Lightning Law essence.
To reach this point, Cain had also discovered the dangerous method Kali was using. It was on total accident, but with his sharp mind, Cain utilized it to his full advantage.
At times, he truly felt as if his body was going to break apart entirely. The threat of death was very real.
But without risks, how could he make notable gains?
Cain never became discouraged, pushing himself to the very limit of his body and breaking past these limits repeatedly.
All this hard work was now finally paying off.
Comprehension of Early Stage Minor Lightning Law nearly felt like taking a dip in a spring pool.
Like this, Cain remained unmovable, in complete focus for numerous hours.
The whole process was slow, methodical, almost mind-numbing in a way.
But Cain felt at his most natural during these long cultivation seclusions.
Then, when finally half a day passed, Cain finally reached a critical change.
An instinctive sensation, one that felt completely natural to him, began formulating within his mental psyche.
The sensation was electrifying but also mystical at the same time. It was distinctly different from the previous Lightning sensation.
Immersing himself in this new electrifying sensation, Cain gradually fell into an enlightening trance.
The enlightenment lasted for just a mere moment.
But within that split moment, a thought engraved itself into Cain's mental psyche, 'Lightning causes the death of the body and the mind. It has spiritual properties that transcend the simple physical form.'
Cain suddenly felt his mental psyche and body shake.
From the slow enlightenment, his comprehension rapidly sped up, grasping this single thought within just seconds.
As Cain's comprehension rapidly increased, he felt like a large mysterious portion of Minor Lightning Law's essence completely vanished.
Right then, his Soul's Core intensely stirred, practically discharging out his Soul Sense like massive tidal waves.
Cain's consciousness was already in the Minor Lightning Law dimension. And as his Soul Sense greatly expanded, it soon met with a restrictive invisible force.
This was the force separating him from the next stage of cultivation.
It was noticeably stronger than what he felt in the Innate Lord realm. But, it could barely do anything to truly obstruct Cain.
Cain summoned an abundance more Soul energy, strengthening his Soul Sense to an incredible degree.
And with a great push, Cain's Soul Sense crushed right past Early Stage Minor Lightning Law essence's invisible force!
'Bang!'
Thunderous booms completely rocked Cain's entire being.
He felt as if his whole world shattered apart, introducing him into a far higher world!
In that moment, his mental psyche and Soul Sense evolved.
Cain's Soul Sense stretched for a wider breadth in the Minor Law Dimension until it eventually covered the whole portion of Early Stage Minor Lightning Law essence.
Previously, his Soul Sense could only probe at the borders of Early Stage essence.
But now, with his new evolution, it was completely possible to cover 50% of Minor Lightning Law essence!
Although, this didn't mean Cain could already absorb the entirety of Early Stage essence. Doing this would only cause his mental psyche to collapse.
Cain had only dragged in a small portion of Early Stage essence, absorbing it through his mental psyche and then flowing it towards his dantian.
The Early Stage essence absorbed into Cain's dantian within seconds. From there, the Early Stage essence shot right into his Minor Lightning Law sphere, rapidly evolving it.
As his Minor Lightning Law sphere experienced significant evolutions, Cain's mental psyche and body were also experiencing rapid evolutions.
His entire being was changing to adapt to the incredible power of Early Stage Minor Lightning Law essence.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter only a few minutes, his changes were finally complete.
Now, Cain's Minor Lightning sphere gained a sparkling crystalline shine. Flashes of blue light streaked out of the crystalline skin, showcasing an enchanting beauty.
The crystalline skin was Early Stage essence. A full evolution from the Threshold Stage essence.
At the same time, Cain's mental psyche broadened beyond belief.
And his dantian's Innate Mist now had luminous streaks of blue lightning list continually flashing within.
The fusion of Law essence and dantian's mist, it was the symbol of the dantian's next evolution, Sky Mist!
Upon the formation of his Sky Mist, Cain's Soul Sense left the Minor Law Dimension, returning to the separate dimension's environment.
Automatically, his Soul Sense expanded, eventually striking against another invisible force.
The barrier of Sky Qi, the middle form of Heaven and Earth Origin energy was treated the same as the Early Stage's Law barrier.
Cain's Soul Sense broke right past it like fragile glass!
Harsh dark blue energies swirled around Cain like a vortex. Sky Qi poured into Cain's body like an unending river fall.
All throughout his body, to his organs, muscles, flesh, and bones, Sky Qi perfectly fused within it.
It caused a change on Cain's skin as a layer of a gross black substance covered his body.
At the same time, the majority of Sky Qi fused into Cain's dantian.
The streams of Sky Qi automatically transformed into heavily dense properties and further evolved Cain's dantian. His Innate Qi Origin dots are now transformed into five Origin Marks.
The Origin Marks took on a harsh blue color, appearing less like a phantom.
Dense Sky Qi had also fused straight into the dantian's Sky Mist, evolving it within seconds.
Minor Lightning Law essence and Sky Qi perfectly fused together without any mishaps.
And now, Cain's Sky Mist gained the powerful properties of Sky Qi.
Because of the flashes of Minor Lightning streaks, it was a bit difficult to spot the changes. But the Sky Mist's had a more noticeable luminous blue shine compared to the Innate Mist's faint glow.
On the outside, Cain's body shook.
The black skin covering his body shed off like a snake gaining new skin. His evolved skin appeared far more glossy, as if it had a shine about it.
Cain's already handsome looks greatly enhanced with his new glossy skin.
But more importantly, Cain's power tremendously surged! His body discharged, releasing tidal waves of energies that split the air apart.
If he was on a Lower Realm planet, his breakthrough aura would've caused a destructive hurricane to ruin the environment.
But in here, it only caused the wind to be vigorously whipped about.
After a few seconds, Cain's breakthrough phenomenon dispersed. His aura receded into himself like a calm stream of water.
Cain's whole presence changed. To any Innate Lord, he would feel utterly unfathomable.
At this moment, Cain had finally reached the Sky Ruler realm!
