Death… And Me

Chapter 1576 Transition Realm

Luan still wasn’t used to it, though. “It makes my head feel a little dizzy when he comes in.” Well, at least Luan had returned to normal after the last three months. No parts of his body were transformed anymore.

Roan patted the boy’s head, which was a rare thing to see. “You’re doing well.”

Rean smiled in response before looking at the environment around them. The sea was still under their feet as Kentucky kept still in the air. However, everyone could see the continent extending further ahead. It didn’t seem to be a place with any extremes like Treavin or Pol Continent. “Let’s head ashore. We have some things to do before we continue our travel.”

”On it!” Kentucky nodded before flying to the land ahead.

Other than a few low-level demon beasts, the twins’ group didn’t find anything to worry about. There were no signs of civilization either. “That’s to be expected. So far, all the cities we’ve passed through were very far away from each other. It makes sense we didn’t find any city as soon as we arrived,” Roan could not help but say.

Rean then looked at a mountain ahead and suggested, “How about that one for us?”

Roan understood what Rean meant and nodded. “Sure. Let’s head there.”

Not long after, Kentucky landed on the mountain top and used his eyes to look far into the distance. The forest surprisingly continued as far as his eyes could see. Also, neither his nor anyone’s Divine Senses could catch the presence of other high-level cultivators or demon beasts. Last but not least, the Divine Sense bending skill couldn’t detect anything.

”Alright, bring Celis out,” Kentucky said.

”Hehe! You truly made me wait a lot!” Celis laughed when he appeared. Why? Because they had been at the peak of the Elemental Transformation Realm for years now. It was finally time to break through to the Transition Realm. For Celis, it was basically a comeback to his original realm when Rean and Roan freed him. Well, almost. Celis was at the Peak Stage of the Transition Realm back on the Zasfins’ planet, but he would only enter the Initial Stage for now. “Let’s start! Quick, quick!”

Havek distanced himself from them as he floated in the air. “You guys go and do your breakthroughs. I will keep a lookout in case someone tries to bother you.”

The twins nodded in response. In fact, with the Divine Stones, the four of them could have their breakthroughs inside the Dimensional Realm. It’s just that they didn’t want to.

Rean then brought out several Rank Two Divine Stones. After the excavation, they had many higher-level ones. However, for the breakthrough, higher-level Divine Stones weren’t necessary. After all, the twins’ cultivation technique was perfect. Rank Two Divine Stones was more than enough for it. 

[Alright, here’s what you should do.] Sister Orb began to explain. [The Transition Realm is basically all about the body, or dantian, being able to produce Divine Origin Energy. That’s why the Transition Realm is the same for all races, humanoid, demon beasts, and spirits. From this point onward, all of them follow the same system.]

[As you can remember, you can use Divine Origin Energy at any level, but you can’t produce it on your own. In fact, you can’t take Divine Origin Energy that you will produce in the Transition Realm out either. Not that you could do it with normal Divine Energy anyway. The Divine Energy you use will only be compatible with yourself. The same goes for Divine Origin Energy.]

[Then again, you won’t be able to generate Divine Origin Energy during the Initial, Middle, and Late Stages of the Transition Realm. These stages exist to prepare the cultivator for the conversion of Divine Energy into Divine Origin Energy.]

Celis already knew all of that, so he took the chance to add more information. “She’s right. Another thing. Divine Origin Energy is a lot more important for Transition Realm beings than it is for lower-level ones.”

[Exactly. Well, not only the Transition Realm but those above it as well. When you reach the Void Tempering Realm, Divine Energy can still be used for combat and things like that. However, it’s completely useless for cultivation. That’s why it’s so important for them. Of course, there’s one stage in the Transition Realm that Divine Origin Energy becomes just as important as it is for those above this level.]

Celis couldn’t help but sigh as he said, “It’s the Peak Stage of the Transition Realm. That’s the reason why we were all stuck in this realm back in the Mortal Realm. To break through into the Void Tempering Realm, you need Divine Origin Energy. To make Divine Origin Energy…”

The twins and Kentucky understood after that. “You needed Divine Energy…”

Celis nodded. “Exactly. Well, back on the Zasfins’ planet, I still didn’t know about it. None of us did. All we knew was that once we reached the Peak Stage of the Transition Realm, our cultivations simply couldn’t advance anymore. Before that, it was still possible to use Spiritual Energy to reach that level, though.”

[Now then, focus your Divine Energy on your dantian and follow the Yin Yang Cultivation Technique. As for Celis and Kentucky, they’re demon beasts, so they don’t need to do that.]

The twins nodded as they began their cultivation. Celis and Kentucky obviously did the same. The Divine Energy of the Divine Stones then began to enter their bodies nonstop as they turned to dust. 

*Puff, puff, puff, puff…*

Sure enough, with those four together, even Rank Two Divine Stones were dried up easily one after another. The good thing was that their breakthrough would happen several times faster than anyone else.

Eventually, their cultivations reached the transition point when suddenly, they crossed the last barrier. A huge burst of Divine Energy then escaped all their bodies as their cultivation raised nonstop. Not before long, Kentucky, Celis, Rean, and Roan’s cultivations finally stabilized at the Initial Stage of the Transition Realm!
