[You are executing the blueprint flawlessly, kid!] Crul’s voice resounded inside his fractured consciousness, roaring over the internal tempest. [Your physical vessel is adapting. Your spiritual channels are aggressively absorbing the residual friction, baking them to beco ten tis more solid than before! The longer you can hold this line, the greater your structural returns will be once the circuit fully settles!]
But the relentless, agonizing pain did not subside for a single fraction of a second.
Every single milliter of Ethan’s body was undergoing a brutal, rapid evolutionary remodeling. As the massive torrents of Heidy’s virgin Yin essence were forcefully crushed and refined through his Primordial Void center, the unstable energy inside his own Dantian began to rapidly condense, compressing under imnse gravity toward a single, singular point. His breakthrough was imminent. The loose, gaseous spiritual essence of his soul realm was violently solidifying into a true, unbreakable Golden Core.
[Resist the release, Ethan!] Crul barked, his voice laced with an extre, clinical urgency. [Do not let the breakthrough detonate yet! The ultimate density and grade of your Golden Core depends entirely on how much pressure you can systematically bottle up right now! Do not unleash the floodgates until your soul is on the absolute brink of collapse!]
It was a test designed by the deepest demons of hell. To be trapped at the absolute, white-hot peak of an explosive climax—both physically and energetically—and be forced to lock it down by sheer, unyielding ntal violence was a tornt that defied human endurance. A single, heavy tear of absolute strain slipped from Ethan’s tightly shut eye, his jaw locking so violently that his serrated teeth nearly shattered as he anchored the roaring breakthrough within his core.
Concurrently, Heidy’s unconscious form was undergoing massive, revolutionary biological alterations.
The terrifying influx of Ethan’s hyper-pure, dense Yang energy had completely swamped her system. Under the blistering, solar heat of his primal essence, her ancient Peak Golden Core didn’t rely fracture—it began to rapidly lt down like a block of pure ice exposed to a roaring furnace.
Her Dantian was fundantally rewriting its spatial geotry to birth the legendary Spiritual Sea Realm.
The ascension of the Sea Realm was split into three distinct, legendary evolutionary phases:
Phase 1: The Liquefaction Core (The lting Tide): Her solid, calcified Golden Core was completely dissolved into a vast, swirling pool of hyper-dense, pure liquid spiritual energy, turning her central core into a boundless reservoir.
Phase 2: The Ebb and Flow (The Tidal Horizon): The liquid spiritual energy would begin to aggressively expand, tearing through the local spatial boundaries of her Dantian to create an infinite internal horizon that mirrored a true, spiritual ocean.
Phase 3: The Celestial Vapor (The Sea Mist Ascension): The surface of her newly ford spiritual ocean would violently boil, releasing a divine, high-tier celestial mist that would permanently ascend to nourish her soul and grant her absolute control over environntal laws.
Right now, she had successfully breached the threshold of the first phase—The Liquefaction Core. Her ancient core was entirely gone, replaced by a roaring, golden-purple sea of liquid qi that was hungrily drinking down Ethan’s Yang essence to fuel the birth of her new horizon.
Suddenly, the operational equilibrium violently shattered.
As Heidy’s Dantian completed its transformation into the Liquefaction Core, her internal absorption paraters multiplied a thousand-fold in a single fraction of a second. The newly born liquid sea inside her unleashed an unhinged, planetary gravity that ruthlessly drained Ethan’s remaining reserves down to the absolute bone in the blink of an eye.
[Shit! The back-draft is too high! Disengaging the primary link right now!] Crul roared inside his consciousness.
With a brutal, digital force, Crul violently severed the direct physical connection between their pathways before Ethan’s vessel could be entirely hollowed out. The terrifying vortex of absorption imdiately ceased ripping through her intimate core—but it didn’t stop the ascension process. Instead, every single pore across Heidy’s bare, athletic body violently flew open at the exact sa mont.
The closed-loop system morphed into a localized environntal catastrophe. A massive, roaring spiritual vacuum erupted from her flesh, transforming her unconscious form into a rising, cataclysmic tempest that began to aggressively sweep and draw every single scrap of ambient spiritual energy from the surrounding world straight toward her center. The air inside the courtyard turned into a howling gale as the world’s qi was forcefully dragged into her newly ford sea.
[The window is open, Ethan! Execute the sequence right now! ASCEND!] Crul scread, his voice reaching a fever pitch. [The ambient energy she is processing right now is true Spiritual Sea quality—infinitely superior in density and cosmic weight to anything you could logistically forge on your own! I am going to aggressively hijack a fraction of this localized celestial storm and divert it straight into your foundation to supercharge your core!]
Without a single mont of hesitation, Ethan unleashed the absolute, white-hot pressure he had been bottlenecking behind his iron will.
As Crul’s arrays intercepted a massive stream of the high-tier, distilled Sea Realm energy swirling around Heidy’s tempest, the dense cosmic power slamd straight into Ethan’s Dantian like a falling star. The hyper-compressed, gaseous essence of his soul realm completely imploded under the sheer weight of the stolen celestial catalyst, initiating a blinding, golden-purple detonation within his flesh as his own supre Golden Core was forcefully hamred into existence amidst the roaring fury of her ascension.
