Generally speaking, the interior of a realm would more accurately restore the external space it occupied. The larger the ratio between the two, the more solid and difficult to destroy it was, representing one thing:
Overcoming chanism weaknesses.
In Magical Girl battles, having no weak points was truly strong. In other words, Nan Zhiyi had now ascended to a new realm.
Her entire body blood with magic power like a flower bud waiting to fully shine, pressure like raging waves continuously compressing the small area of that ink painting, actually forcing back a True Self Realm of over 200 square kiloters.
Crack crack crack!
The edges of both sides rapidly rubbed and collided, shattering and repairing, then shattering again. This brought extre burden to both users, imdiately causing bleeding from all seven orifices.
Wisteria, clearly in a rampaging state, didn't care and threw everything into the confrontation.
In contrast, Nan Zhiyi consciously welcod the pain.
The world was so clear—the unique temporal attributes from Transient Realm actually caused the stars within Small Universe to shift, along with the black-haired girl's skin wrinkling and withering. The weakness brought by aging was spreading throughout her body.
"...So I've always overlooked what was closest to . A complete world should be self-evolving, with ti as the asuring scale."
Her voice was hoarse and turbid yet her eyes glead, because the missing piece was about to be completed.
Realm expansion!
This ti Small Universe abandoned its starry background to construct a solar system alone, with rapid rotation around a star gravitationally crashing into the ink painting. The opponent shattered with the impact, that air of temporal decay forced to retreat, even Wisteria was swept up and rolled by the shockwave.
Magical Girl Dandelion returned to perfect condition, while her internal origin expanded further—the world's magic power restrictions were gone.
The completed Small Universe realm deserved to climb to new heights.
"The world lies in evolution, self-renewal, and absolute order. I shall beco the eternal center, granting you change."
As soon as she finished speaking, the starry scenery actively rotated and evolved. If previously Nan Zhiyi used small planet gravity for combat, now she controlled every celestial body with gravity—worlds apart in realm. The strongest Domain magic completed its self-consistent step through intense collision, no longer thinking plainly about who was grander but creating a world—this was the user's obsessive imagination made manifest.
Since you're called Small Universe, you should be vast, orderly, and profound.
Tap!
Nan Zhiyi lightly stamped her foot, making surrounding celestial bodies expand further. As she gradually approached Wisteria, the realm's internal area grew larger and larger, clearly covering the horizon and replacing the night sky.
At this mont, even if Hydrangea and Kale were slow, they should understand another Blooming Stage Magical Girl was born, following close behind the first tier.
Small Universe realm clearly ford a disparate internal-external ratio proving its incredible solidity.
Because the user had to simultaneously maintain pressure from unbalanced rules on both sides—truly miraculous skill.
Not just Ningfeng Harbor city—several surrounding coastal plain subsidiary cities, counties, and districts were also covered. People looked up to see massive planetary bodies.
galophobia fully awakened!
The city was in complete chaos, bustling with commotion. No one expected the normal night to be replaced by an oversized starry sky. But there were also spectators taking out caras for commorative photos, and so who recognized Domain magic imdiately cheered loudly.
All living beings fell under Nan Zhiyi's perception—no mistake, she had caught up.
Though Hibiscus was uniquely the only one to advance with all three elents complete, in terms of realm everyone differed little—at least not enough to drag behind.
Those ordinary Holy Relics, fusion warriors, or rcenaries in Ningfeng Harbor lost their fighting spirit one by one, not daring to move. After all, Domain-type was famously vast and domineering, especially with the iconic starry background—everyone knew the Salvation Church's Dandelion was showing her power. Any more trouble would definitely end badly.
Could the Fallen Zone still not be the Church's limit?
For outsiders, the world's number one Magical Girl Organization had grown stronger again. For witnesses, they clearly saw a group of geniuses continuously refreshing the ceiling.
"You're simply a collective of monsters." Kale marveled.
Hydrangea said proudly: "I said this trip would be full of surprises. Boss will definitely be fine now."
As they spoke, the small girl in nightgown was thrown into the air by gravity. She imdiately flew while her magic power completely rampaged, while Hydrangea quickly ran away to avoid the aftermath.
"Leave it to ."
As soon as she finished, Dandelion slowly extended her hand. Enhanced by realm power, her origin broke through the ink painting realm layer by layer—it ca from Magical Girl Wisteria's unconsciously blooming energy, the source of rampage.
Best to resolve everything within Small Universe to avoid spillover.
"...Stay away from ." Murmuring voice accompanied by suddenly rising pressure—at this mont Transient Realm forcibly released energy.
Everything it touched withered, eroded, even turned to powder. The colors in the ink painting grew fainter and fainter, as if decayed after enduring ancient ti.
It represented a Magical Girl's troubled state of mind—pain from suffering its incompleteness since first awakening magic long ago. This ford a True Self Realm even possessing certain temporal attributes. Undoubtedly top-tier magic struck toward Nan Zhiyi.
Neither side intended to yield—one rampaging out of control, the other trying to suppress destructive power.
True Self Realm collision!
Boom—
Ningfeng Harbor's night actually produced earth-light, reaching the ninth heaven and reflecting into the curved starry shell to disperse magic conduction. This represented output energy just now sufficient to blast away an entire district.
Wind swept across faces, streets filled with drafts, heat flows swept in all directions, rumbling sounds made seawater sway. Not only were realms colliding—two Magical Girls transford into streams of light crossing past each other. Each brush represented shockwaves dispersing, making countless ships on the water pitch endlessly, anchors embedded in the seabed nearly coming loose.
Signals were blocked—no ans existed to contact the outside world. People could only witness events developing step by step.
Every corner of the city echoed with tremors.
In Changfeng Group's office, Hibiscus actively released magic barriers to protect the fragile Jin Changfeng and ditating Jin Ruochu—a rare pocket of tranquility. Now she understood another aning of the Blooming Stage watershed.
Magical Girls reaching this stage had completely different breakthrough forms.
Previously in Growth Stage, everyone could advance mid-battle. Now the form differed, leaning more toward deep excavation of magic chanisms.
Core mysteries were gradually revealing themselves.
Earlier, netizens had ntioned that the core mystery of magic's final realm was crucial—or rather, not just magic, but exploration of life's sublimation path. Even Regalia and origin elents could reach pinnacles. Because regardless, Withering Stage could also max out the skill tree.
So core mystery represented the Withering Stage, while magic could also achieve permanent effects.
Now Hibiscus saw various different magic advancent situations in Jin Ruochu, Jin Yulu, and Nan Zhiyi—not to be underestimated, with increasingly varied changes.
Researching alone wouldn't work—more cases would help collective progress.
During this period, she kept trying to deeply integrate the massive magic power overflowing from Blooming Stage and finally made progress. This would bring basic attribute improvents, then origin would prematurely open paths to the next stage...
Compared to her steady island platform, the city was in complete chaos.
Streets and alleys howled with storms, waves surged, distant docks and harbors with moored ten-thousand-ton ships all pitched endlessly.
The ocean overturned like stacked steps, ground cracked occasionally venting gas. Fortunately coastal areas had developed disaster evasion experience through Disaster Beast training, otherwise losses would be greater.
Now the city was like being violently shaken in a can.
Hibiscus looking out from Changfeng Group's top floor could vaguely see a red sun rising—not dawn, but the core of Nan Zhiyi's magic, using stellar gravity as guide to leverage the entire realm's internal gravity. Putting herself in that position, even she would need considerable effort to respond, especially having to constantly maintain origin body protection to forcibly counteract gravitational tearing.
How long had it been since Magical Girl Dandelion realized high-level applications of her abilities?
Completely correct—for magic, the initially innate priority was best. Using gravity to suppress Wisteria herself was undoubtedly most efficient.
The two Magical Girls in combat—one visibly breaking through constraints toward the next realm, the other a veteran Growth Stage erupting amazing energy through long-accumulated rampage.
Finally, magic aura from Transient Realm rapidly declined, falling into disadvantage first in the Domain-type territorial competition.
Nan Zhiyi understood the decisive mont had arrived. If she delayed further, she'd have to handle things with Wisteria getting slightly hurt. Best to end it now and let Hibiscus watch properly too.
Crack!
She lightly poked and shattered the ink painting's shell, forcibly stopping the realm closure's expansion.
teor showers streaked across the sky, destroying the mirage-like realm.
Instantly stirring up larger-scale magic, Dandelion's flowing hair took on black coloring, dotted with countless starlight—clearly rging with the True Self Realm.
User synchronization with realm power!
Nan Zhiyi further activated new-stage skills, simply making magic resonate with herself to arm with starry power. Now with origin shaping thods, she could similarly suppress enemies in close combat.
The next mont, the black-haired girl disappeared from her original position, appearing beside Wisteria. Before the latter could react, she was pushed away with one palm.
The force wasn't fierce at all—even gentle—but violent origin power washed over the body, disrupting the target's magic flow and causing Transient Realm to show fracturing scenes.
Boom!
At Blooming Stage, she could highly integrate with Small Universe to draw upon its might—like now using massive gravity to apply a point and shatter the opponent's realm. Sure enough, with a crisp ding, layers peeled away. The returning shockwave directly knocked Wisteria unconscious.
At the crucial mont, Kale caught the nightgown girl, seeing her rampaging magic disappear and imdiately sighing in relief.
"How did you also erase the rampaging magic pollution?"
Nan Zhiyi displayed black energy in her hand. "Simple—apply mass to it then take it away. In my realm, even magic flow can be influenced."
"That works too!"
"I still need to maintain constant pressure on the Transient Realm to prevent it from expanding. Fortunately everything went smoothly."
Victory was victory, mainly because she succeeded by crushing with Blooming Stage's strongest Domain magic in one stroke. Otherwise the Transient Realm with noble temporal attributes wouldn't have been easily defeated. If they kept fighting, who knew the result?
The opponent was an old-school Growth Stage, no less formidable—would definitely require considerable effort.
Actually during combat, Nan Zhiyi discovered the opponent's magic power total was unfathomably deep with extrely strong foundation, probably benefiting from centuries of accumulation. Similarly, life origin was far stronger than sa level, so comprehensively the opponent counted as surpassing Growth Stage level.
Within Transient Realm, no world magic power limit existed—long accumulation would always bring qualitative change, like "can't grow taller so grow wider" while slowly strengthening.
If Wisteria wanted to bloom, it shouldn't be too difficult.
Unfortunately, long solitude had deeply hurt her, unwilling to actively touch the world's upper limit ceiling. So first let the Salvation Church aces try, then she'd follow afterward.
Nan Zhiyi made no comnt on this—everyone was happy regardless, finally settling one trouble.
"How long did I sleep!"
Suddenly awakening, Magical Girl Wisteria was shocked, then touched her head in a daze. Seeing everything that t her eyes, gradually understanding what she'd done, her pretty face imdiately filled with self-bla, almost ready to cry.
"Don't worry, just a bit of sleepwalking." Seeing this, Kale quickly stepped forward to comfort her: "Besides, we don't need to hide anymore."
"...The rainy season has co. The era of magic power decline is over. I dare bet it will never return."
Hydrangea shook her head with mystical declarations.
Hearing this, Nan Zhiyi frowned and began pondering: "Do you have divination abilities?"
"Don't believe her—at most vague conceptual target confirmation." Kale spoke bluntly: "She used to cheat money through gambling, feng shui, magic tricks and such, never did honest work. Most loved fooling custors into willingly helping Hydrangea count money."
"The Church needs you."
"See, this is the steed eting Bole. Lord Dandelion has better judgnt."
"Back to business—before I lift the realm closure's signal interruption, have you thought how to suppress the Ningfeng Harbor incident? Otherwise the mont I release magic, the whole world will know big news."
Nan Zhiyi raised this urgent matter seriously, because the entire incident represented the Salvation Church's concealed strategic advantage foundation being shaken.
Not to ntion it ca from Holy City Association calculations—quite dangerous.
The world's largest transcendent organization had operated openly for years, developing intricate relationships since the first Holy Relic Civil War—difficult to shake.
Fallen Zone battlefields could rely on strength, but violence couldn't solve all problems. Returning to human society ultimately required following rules, otherwise wouldn't everyone beco barbaric tis? The Church would eventually possess supre violence but must never abuse it.
"Pharmacist will bet all relationships, favors, and interest exchanges accumulated so far. This is the last ti—my political resources in farewell."
"You're abandoning that identity?"
"I disagree with the Association's path and won't work together. Besides, we've already made enemies."
Kale solemnly responded to Nan Zhiyi's question, firmly expressing her decision to join the Church.
"Right, people should be carefree. I told you long ago not to play house with those people." Hydrangea patted her companion's shoulder comfortingly.
After discussion, the three settled on their decision. The awakened and alert Wisteria was left aside, but she quickly understood the situation and finally decided on the Ranger Organization's joining. Though in the desert, she never stopped obtaining outside information. Currently the first large-scale Magical Girl Organization was thunderously famous—compared to Rangers scattered like stars, more like a team.
Selling high was hard logic—obviously the Salvation Church better adapted to new tis. Might as well join hands to face Holy Relic threats.
"Speaking of which, is this all of you?"
Nan Zhiyi had indeed heard Hibiscus share intelligence about Rangers, but witnessing so few people in person still couldn't believe it.
"Our activities lean toward protective exchange—like joining lets my realm enhance protection to extend erosion limits while waiting for magic revival. Just co occasionally... I'm like a clinic—co or don't as you please, no forcing or constraining." Wisteria answered.
"Really free."
"Related to the era too—communication was very inconvenient then, and forcibly staying together easily caused trouble. Most importantly, I don't like overly noisy environnts."
"So you earliest experinted with Magical Girls living together? This is a sociology topic worth studying."
"...But not pleasant mories. Instead, you gathering so many people while remaining safe is indeed impressive. I trust your organization."
Finding common ground, the two smiled and shook hands.
Not knowing each other without fighting worked quite well for Magical Girls, especially with True Self Realm collisions that amplified user ntal images. The remaining magic information was sufficient for self-introduction—they'd already deepened mutual understanding.
Salvation Church second-in-command Nan Zhiyi valued the Ranger Organization's long-accumulated intelligence, operational experience, and most importantly, combat power reserves—rare and precious.
As for Wisteria, she was also happy—selling high to a new employer while the situation was good. Not caring about power, she didn't feel the loss. A hundred years of cultivation to share the sa boat—now Magical Girls should band together.
What did personal concepts matter before the tide of tis? What did individuals matter before ethnic group interests?
Betting placed.
Though she hadn't yet t that strongest Magical Girl, the prophet Hyacinth, she was willing to trust the superior assisted by Nan Zhiyi.
"May I ask about Ranger information?"
"Don't worry, all mber rosters are in my head—I'll tell you later. Of course don't hold too high hopes. Besides us, only swordsman touched Growth Stage but we can't contact her. Additionally, optimistically estimating the magician also advanced. The remaining levels are quite divided—less than ten Seedling Stage, others under a hundred mbers."
"So altogether a full 5 Growth Stage Magical Girls!"
Even Nan Zhiyi was slightly stunned by such combat reserves—beyond expectations. Thinking carefully, the Church only barely surpassed in comprehensive strength.
Close call.
Fortunately Hibiscus broke through to Blooming Stage early with the most famous reputation and flagship effect.
According to perception, Jin Ruochu and Jin Yulu should be close too. Adding herself, only then did the first tier lead in realm—otherwise it would be hard to say they absorbed the Ranger Organization rather than partnership, which wasn't what she hoped for.
Regardless, everyone was happy. Just regarding the Ningfeng Harbor incident, it should be suppressible, but subsequent storms weren't certain.
"Oh? I'm not the newest mber anymore!"
Lightning flashed as soone entered their perception range. If not for the lack of hostility, they almost would have launched attacks.
Tulip ca running excitedly carrying the World Serpent egg, greeting enthusiastically. However, in energy-conducting state, she couldn't brake properly and lost control, pushed by inertia straight into the sea with rolling thunder. Monts later, a large pile of fish floated to the surface.
Elental-type user energy transformation signs already proved Magical Girl Tulip's magic advancent on the side, but lacking control, she was prone to causing accidents.
As for the World Serpent egg, it remained perfectly intact—all the bumping left no traces, though its aura grew increasingly massive.
Who?
Everyone pondered briefly before confirming it was the strongest Mythology magic's result—indeed eccentric, not one fuel-efficient lamp. Of course, this was undoubtedly continuous good news—the organization welcod overall combat power leap.
The remaining unconscious Holy Relic prisoner was injected with paralyzing energy by Pseudo Magnetic Field under Nan Zhiyi's direction, then imprisoned in the realm.
Whoosh—
Hurricane clouds rose from thin air around Ningfeng Harbor's 300-kiloter radius, violent energy raging in all directions, continuously assaulting everything around, rolling up waves and clouds to gradually deepen the night's darkness.
They could feel multiple Blooming Stage Magical Girls' pressure stirring in all directions.
This realm involved self-circulation, external resonance, life sublimation—so every action triggered grander phenona. This liveliness would continue for a while.
Suddenly magic transmission sounded in everyone's minds:
"I represent the Salvation Church in welcoming Rangers to join. In that case, Lord Kale, please get busy—public opinion is yours. Also a reminder: Kunlun Mountain base likely has danger. That Oracle Book might be the final piece of misdirection. If you have no backup, quickly evacuate your people. Don't calculate—where our power can't cover, losing it ans losing it."
"Others take this chance to complete material exchange then return to Hermit Island for closure. I'll arrive shortly."
Hibiscus's voice interrupted the slightly chaotic atmosphere—at least now they had a goal, better than passive response.
More importantly, the precise and clear magic transmission represented her exquisite operation, inevitably bringing a sense of having a backbone. In any case, temporary dormancy first.
"I'll go first to suppress the news."
After waving farewell, Kale disappeared on the spot—she had to go to another battlefield.
"Everyone follow ."
Even Nan Zhiyi, prepared for major battle when stepping onto ho soil, never expected to return after just minutes—quite aggrieved. All blad Holy City Association for the big commotion, insisting on confronting the Salvation Church.
She looked at Hermit Island and sighed deeply. Outside was too dangerous—ho still felt better.
If all Magical Girls were exposed, setting aside abstract concepts like strategic flexibility, just company debts would collectively explode.
The finance-managing accountant miss absolutely wouldn't allow money trees to have problems. Blocking people's wealth was like killing their parents—now Magical Girl Dandelion was already full of killing intent.
Later they'd discuss your death dates.
The newly arrived Rangers curiously looked around, ultimately restraining their desire to request tour guide help. Better wait for the Salvation Church decision-maker to chat first.
They all understood Magical Girls had reached a crossroads.
