Chapter 156: The Isekai'd Tuna and the Cat Underling
🕑 Added 2025-09-15 10:18:30 +0000 UTC“Ah..? It’s him!”
Kiana recognized the source of the ‘vibrations’. The familiar ‘presence’ was caught under her spiritual consciousness.
She swiftly rushed out of the gap, arriving in the middle of the ocean.
The moment she did so, her connection with the Herrscher Core disappeared.
Kiana tried to call upon it, but to no avail. She tried to mobilize the honkai energy inside of her body. This time, it worked normally.
Her spiritual consciousness swept through the huge body of water beneath.
“Honkai exists in this world. Then…”
The Bubble World suppresses Herrschers within this world. It is similar to the Bubble World on Earth’s Moon. It was a Bubble World stripped off after the Herrscher of Finality destroyed the Previous Era.
Fortunately, Kiana’s cultivation remained unchanged. The power to uproot a continent and shake the seas is present.
Her flight speed allowed her to reach the mainland in five minutes.
‘...Huh?’
Kiana’s spiritual consciousness scanned her radius of two hundred miles. The unfamiliar language and letter shocked her. Though, she could ‘understand’ the meaning behind them.
Higher-level spiritual consciousness can delve into the meaning of words and actions despite unfamiliarity. It is a built-in translator for immortal cultivators.
Three minutes later, Kiana can now fully understand this foreign language. The ‘word’ that popped out the most reminded her of something.
“Mu Continent? Isn’t this…”
She recalled some conversation with Tesla. Anti-Entropy managed to obtain the information of the Previous Era after the fight with Sirin. It revealed that fifty thousand years ago, there was a human civilization that fought off against the honkai and failed.
This is where their Divine Keys came from.
Judgement of Shamash, Oath of Judah, Black Abyss White Flower…
The moon rocks they obtained also mentioned about the Mu Continent. It is the technological center of the Previous Era.
“This Bubble World is based on the Previous Era? Then, Shi Tian and Seele must be here too…”
*****
I woke up.
A huge amount of memories came crashing down.
From the two-day stay inside that space up to the release of my full-powered honkai attack, everything happened swiftly. With my remaining power as an immortal cultivator, I prevented the aftershock of my descent and teleported straight to the cat’s side. Pardofelis’ “luck” allowed her to survive up until she sent Prometheus to the Cocoon of Finality.
I wanted to take advantage of it and lay low while I was recovering.
“You’re finally awake!”
The loud cry belonging to a girl took my attention. She jumped out of the sofa and swiftly reached the bedside in five seconds.
“I thought you were dead…”
“A corpse doesn’t breathe.”
“What if you are in a coma? I can’t bring you to a hospital! After those officials abandoned this place, there is none around here.”
“...”
Looking at the money-pincher whom I could only see inside the Elysian Realm, I felt complicated.
I understood the nature of this Bubble World by now. It is based on the Previous Era. Seele’s Natural Stigma came from the Previous Era. Factoring in the Sea of Quanta, it is not impossible for a Bubble World like this to be created.
Analyzing things did not hinder me from comforting Pardofelis.
“If money is what you are looking for, I do have it.”
Several stacks of gold bars appeared atop my palm. These are the remaining ordinary gold that came from Anti-Entropy. These can be combined to form ‘gold essences’. It is the sole ‘mortal’ material capable of turning into spiritual materials.
Anti-Entropy’s main spiritual materials while I was away came from it.
“This is pure gold. You can have it checked on any instrument.”
Pardofelis started to drool. She swiftly caught the gold bars I threw using my spiritual consciousness. She hugged these five gold bars dearly.
“There will be ten more if you let me stay here for a week.”
“Ten more?! This house is yours!”
“...”
I underestimated her greed over shiny things. I changed my mind.
“Can you work for me? The monthly salary is five gold bars. Food is included.”
“Nya?!”
Her entire body jolted. She looked at me with widened eyes.
To my shock, she respectfully bowed to my direction.
“Greetings, Boss!”
It took a while to let Pardofelis move away. Her enthusiasm over gold bars is unimaginable. I took out a portion of the unprocessed third grade demon beast meat. I checked her body with my spiritual consciousness. It is similar to a human body. One bite of a finger-sized demon beast meat is enough to fill her up for three days.
Then, it is time to check my body.
My spiritual consciousness remains undamaged. I can exert the power of a peak Purple Mansion Realm with ease.
It is my body that got harmed.
When I unleashed that devastating strike, my output exceeded 50,000 HW. It suddenly doubled to 100,000 HW, something caused by the Judgement of Shamash. I don’t know why it happened. Only, the dead Herrscher Core became no different from my own Herrscher Core.
Maybe it is the reason why Kevin could disable the Herrscher of the End with it. Judgement of Shamash is a special Divine Key compared to others.
I ended up being damaged by those flames that reached the threshold of Nascent Soul Realm.
Did Kevin reach this level in his Diabolic Form? Unlikely.
Then, it is my problem.
I peered inside my physical body. My appearance looks fine. Most of my internal organs are burnt, however. Most of my muscles are scorched black. I am cooked internally. I can’t even move much from this bed.
Fortunately, my soul has the ‘soul protection’ from the spiritual plant and technique. It is originally for the ‘soul tempering’ via honkai energy. It served its purpose and reduced my soul’s injuries.
All in all, my soul injuries can recover within a month as long as nothing bad happens. I have zero spiritual plants related to soul recovery. I can only do it on my own.
My physical body is not a problem. The demon beasts I hunted down are enough as my recovery nutrients. Two months are enough to fully recover.
Once I recover, there is a good chance I will reach the peak stage of Purple Mansion Realm.
Finally, the Innate Spiritual Flames became dormant after absorbing the Nascent Soul flames. It is digesting the power that came from it. The feedback it will give after it becomes a full-fledged fourth grade spiritual flame might be enough for my qi cultivation to reach the peak of the Purple Mansion Realm.
By then, I need to finish honing the peak stage. Breaking through the Golden Core Realm comes next.
Golden Core…
Maybe I can reach it before the final battle?
