While everyone else was flying towards the star platform, Cain was in a completely enthralled state.
The most mystical sensations, the boundless thrills of the Great Dao permeated his Spiritual Sea. Everything about the outside world began to lose feeling.
No longer was he in the Starry Earth Realm. He wasn't even in the universe containing the God Galaxies.
Cain felt his entire consciousness was transported. It transcends every rule and law of time and space.
In mere moments, his Spiritual Sea had entered into a new dimension. A boundless dimension, beyond the comprehension of divine means and superior to every cultivator Cain had met so far in his journey.
Everything struck him at once. In the infinite darkness of this new dimension, unfathomable energy continually permeated his Spiritual Sea.
This kind of power wasn't particularly overbearing. But still felt all-encompassing!
As if it contained not just everything of the known universe, but even more harrowing secrets that extend past the universe!
Completely entranced. There was no other way to describe entering this dimension.
Every little word seemed utterly insufficient to detail just how boundless this sensation really was.
Cain could only put it as seeing into the meaning of the universe. Something of which no person in the universe could possibly resist.
Seconds later, twinkling twilight, glows that shine brighter than the highest heaven known to mankind began bursting within Cain's vision of infinite darkness.
The sparkling twilight was sparse at first but soon began to flash at speeds beyond Cain's comprehension. His entire world was filled with the light of true twilight!
In this twilight dimension, Cain's mind communed deep within. As if this was a place he was continually studying for years.
In fact, this could even be considered the foundation of what Cain based his studies of the Law principles of the entire universe!
This was the Starry Heaven Skies. The mysterious, boundless dimension containing the infinite Great Daos.
Cain let out a long sigh, his breath exuding mysterious principles of wonder.
Never had he felt so otherworldly. This was merely scratching the surface of the Great Dao.
Yet, Cain's mind could dig far deeper into the Starry Heaven Skies than what other extreme talents can only dream of happening.
'I wonder...just who was the mysterious ancestor that allow our cultivation system to reach this dimension? Such an expert couldn't just be a Heavenly Venerate existence, right? The ancestor surely went best that realm, and perhaps went past that proceeding realm.'
These were all Cain's baseless guesses. But, he had an inkling that to make a whole entire system connected to a boundless dimension, the expert most likely would need to break out the confines of his universe.
Perhaps becoming an incomprehensible existence. A mythological figure that is untouched by any other existence.
Entertaining as it was to ponder about. But Cain quickly shook his mind off such thoughts and focused up.
His Chaos Soul Sense swiftly spread out, seeking out Ice and Lightning Dao Source Cores.
Numerous other sensations faintly touched his senses. These were Law energy principles that completely mystify Cain's Spiritual Sea.
He could, at the very least, understand the foundation of the energy principles. But anything further was simply a deep fog filled with endless mysteries.
Tremendous power permeated these fogs. But only those with an affinity can grasp hold of those immense powers.
Cain ignored all the distracting sensations. With his already insane perception abilities that are being amplified by the mysterious black lightning and Chaos energy, it didn't take long at all to locate a Lightning and Ice Dao Source Core.
Two twinkling shiny cores glisten in Cain's vision.
One sizzled with rampaging lightning, every spark of thunderous boom withholding power to asunder the heavens. Just a speck of this lightning can easily turn huge mortal continents into complete ashes.
The other rippled out with harrowing sparks of ice crystals, every tiny spark colder than a frozen ocean. A wave of this terrifying ice can instantly freeze over numerous continents linked together.
Cain was a bit surprised and greatly pleased with these Dao Source Cores. Both of them were extremely potent with essence. They seemed to have an endless supply of energy. Thus showcasing that the amount of Source threads principles fueling these Dao Source Cores had to number in the thousands!
This would be a tremendous chance for even core-ranking disciples of a high-tier Holy Land.
Comprehending these Source thread principles would cause the innate abilities of a Spiritual Sea to gradually broaden. Their comprehension abilities wouldn't stay at a fixed rate. They can monstrously increase to a point where reaching far higher cultivation realms was entirely possible!
For someone like Cain, this was unnecessary. But his Spiritual Sea did feel nourished when perceiving these Source threads principles. As if his whole mind took a great dip into a relaxing spring pool. Completely refreshing and near pleasurable.
Cain was in true bliss. Lightning and Ice Laws. Both elements contain the profound mysteries of the Yin element. They naturally mutated into their own unique force, withholding boundless power no weaker than any other Great Dao!
Cain's soul energy had easily penetrated deep into the Dao Source Cores. There wasn't any ounce of confusion. No fog keeping him out or mental barriers halting his path.
His Spiritual Sea gained a swift understanding of the surface-level energy principles of the Dao Source Cores.
With comprehension, his soul energy gained a firm grasp. A magnetic force rippled from his soul energy.
This was the final step to reaching the Divine Star realm. Cain had unknowingly entered it after barely any time passed at all. Bringing the mystical Dao Source Cores into the real world and fusing them into his entire being!
At this time, on the outside, every spot left was taken on the star platform.
The other challengers were forcefully transported out.
At this time, a strange phenomenon was occurring right above the star platform. No other challenger had or could react. Their minds already communed deep into the Starry Heaven Skies. But if they could open their eyes, the shock they would receive wouldn't be small at all.
Two long black lines directly distorted space right above Cain. Unfathomable ripples of energy exuded from the black lines. Whatever force in its way would get destroyed!
Even a Heavenly Venerate means couldn't resist!
'Ka-Cha!'
Space completely shattered!
Out from the two torn open chaotic void spaces, a sizzling lightning Dao Source Core and a glistening ice Dao Source Core began to slowly flow out.
Energy principles beyond the highest heaven filled the whole world. If not protected by the star platform, every single person there would kneel in complete worship.
No ordinary divine being can even think of resisting this heaven-turning pressure.
The fusion of man and Dao Source Core was only steps away!
But before the Dao Source Core completely left the Starry Heaven Skies, Cain experienced a fierce tremor in his mind.
Darkness once again shrouded his vision. Ominous, creeping sensation arouse from his soul. A harrowing fright attempted to pull apart his soul!
Terrifying images began to paint Cain's mind.
The cold, dead corpse of his own body. A bloodied and broken form of Amber. His grandmother, Shi Wei, shredded into a million pieces. Kali, Yulong, Jin Ya, and even Lan Rui all having their heads burst open into a vomit-inducing mess of gore.
Everything tried to rip apart Cain's state of mind all at once!
His Heart Demons were completely personified. What pains him most from his soul, what he feared could possibly happen continually replayed in his mind.
Many cultivators, even the one with steel-like Divine Wills, would completely crumble in the face of a Heart Demon!
It would be far too vicious, too insidious to even dream about facing.
Cain's expression even went slightly pale in an instinctive reaction. It especially wasn't easy to see Amber and Kali battered and dead.
A surge of killing intent nearly ran through him. But...'In the end, everything I see here is just a mere illusion! Never in my life will I let them suffer!'
An extraordinary pulse burst out of Cain's soul. His Divine Will shined brighter than a thousand suns!
All of his Heart Demon rapidly transformed, manifesting into his grand future.
Achieving the realm beyond Heavenly Venerate, becoming a godly existence.
Uncovering the depths of the Great Daos and spreading his unbreakable Great Dao across the entire God Galaxy.
Reaching the very peak of the universe to where no god, devil, or buddha can even hope to match his height!
'Bang!!'
The Heart Demons shattered into a million pieces!
The Dao Source Cores broke out of their constraints, leaving the Starry Heaven Skies completely. Both instantaneously fused into Cain's body.
Lightning and Ice Dao Source Core absorbed right into the depths of Cain's Inner World's great divine sea!
The overbearing pressure of the Dao Source Core violently shook Cain's Inner World, but couldn't completely destroy its space structure. His foundation was far too refined to get destroy.
Within the center of Cain's Inner World, the Dao Source Core continually exuded out endless streams of its Source essence principles!
This energy comes from the purity of the highest heavens. The principles making up the energy streams contained powerful transformation qualities.
Faint tremors and loud eruptions occurred all throughout Cain's body. His Inner World borders broke down and massively expanded, his essence marks experienced huge qualitative transformation and every inch of his internal body also received continuous transformation enhancements.
Unending power rush through every fiber of Cain's being. His skin cracked open, his pores steaming out incredible energy.
This was no longer energy pertaining to the Great Divine Sea realm.
As of now, Cain had finally reached the Divine Star realm!
