Chapter 91: Stacked Enlightenment
🕑 Added 2025-07-27 05:43:10 +0000 UTCThe Cocoon of Finality has the power to isolate the entire solar system from the other worlds on the Imaginary Tree. It could not be treaded by any other being. Only worlds previously afflicted by the honkai as well as high-dimensional powers can cross this overbearing imaginary barrier.
As such, the existence of high-dimensional wills is akin to fireflies in a dark room.
Hum-!
The Sea of Quanta ushered in a huge change. The act of Shi Tian dumping his half-garbage and half-treasure caused disturbances. He resided on a bubble world located on the Sea of Quanta.
Forming a connection with the imaginary space exacerbates the disturbance. It is now a long-ranged ballistic missile exploding on a dark night.
Sitting on the depths of Bikini Bottom is humanity’s greatest hero.
“...What did you see?”
Kevin did not show any fluctuations on his face. The act of tacitly agreeing to Su’s intent to trap him is the last time he showed one. He is aware that would be their final meeting.
Su will die. Kevin gave humanity the last chance. If they cannot find any solutions before he breaks out…
All that’s waiting is to enact their last-ditch plan, Project STIGMA.
He knew that time would not be long.
“An unfamiliar power contrasting the honkai…”
Kevin was surprised to see both the Void Refinement Realm mental power and IX’s influence. They can be sensed more clearly than a year ago.
At the same time, another being on the Sea of Quanta noticed the disturbance. Her current strength is a tenth of the Cocoon of Finality. That was something brought by taking advantage of the Sea of Quanta.
The moment Sa sensed the collision of IX and the mental power, she actively concealed herself. Although she is now a machine rather than a sentient being, she is not one to actively get herself in trouble.
That was how it was when she avoided Kevin in the Sea of Quanta.
That was how it was when she hid from the Cocoon of Finality.
Two hidden masters are awakened today.
*****
The first thing that bombarded my senses is not the overly thick spiritual qi nor Su’s appearance.
It's Dao Rhymes.
As a Purple Mansion Realm, I have the capability to understand dao rhymes. It is different from before. It won’t give off the feeling of a forced sneeze interruption.
My mind is previously cut off from my body and soul.
The only thing I saw is IX’s true nature and pure attainments. Seeing the former is useless. The majority of the latter is pure gibberish. It is too high-level. I can only absorb these attainments honestly.
I ended up being bombarded by the dao rhymes.
My mind is sent to a daze.
The coalescence of water…
The sparks of flames…
The perennial life of trees…
…
…
…
At some point, I woke up from my daze.
The crystal dantian in my chest is changing rapidly. The two dots representing the mysterious spaces began to change. Several other dots appeared and transformed into a fingernail-sized spot.
Seeds of Supernatural Power.
I understood what was happening.
The techniques and spells I practice are turning into Seeds of Supernatural Power. It can be best understood as turning it into a special skill. It lessens consumption of spiritual qi, enhances understanding of a certain Dao, boosts cultivation speed, and so on.
Purple Mansion Realm enables their existence. Not all Purple Mansion Realm cultivators can have them, however.
My time inside the mental landscape is not for naught. I have more than ten thousand techniques, all pointing out to the highest level of immortal cultivation. The number of cross-referencing I did on a daily basis is so absurd even I could not believe it.
Studying techniques is one of the things I did aside from practicing the mind.
Today, it bore fruit.
Xiutian Yin-Yang Art.
Ten Directions Body Art.
Xinhai Wuji Heart Sutra.
The first seed is completed.
The [Xiutian Art], my qi cultivation technique, is related to the ten fundamental elements that make up a world. The Five Yin and Five Yang converge together, forming an unbreakable cycle containing the profundity of the world.
The sheer influence of my spiritual qi changed. Just by existing, it can influence its surroundings. It lessened the difficulty of manipulating the ten elements to a huge extent.
In my sight, there are three lines. All of them originated from me, extending beyond the edges of what I can see.
Karmic lines.
The moment I thought of it, the seed belonging to the [Xinhai Sutra] is formed next. It left my dantian as it headed straight to the top of my head.
My eyes started burning… literally. An invisible force descended onto it. My [Encompassing Eyes] are forced open.
This ability belonged to the [Xinhai Sutra] to begin with. It began to evolve under my sight. It began to permanently change my eyes.
The third seed is formed during this change. It belonged to the [Ten Directions Body Art].
A thin five-colored film emerged on my physical body. The seed left my dantian, touched the edges of my soul, and dissipated.
Hum-!
Rumble-!
A metaphysical five-colored light swept through my soul. The first bit of Tao Pattern I wrote using the [Clear Aperture Art] reacted. Its golden glow intensified as it continued to increase my comprehension.
An urge came to my mind.
I began to carve more Tao Patterns in my soul.
Unlike before, I did not feel very burdened. Qi cultivation is connected to the soul’s strength. It is the reason why the soul becomes tangible at the Nascent Soul Realm.
My focus is put into these three seeds. I am doing three things at once.
Hum-!
The fourth seed was formed. It belongs to the [Five Elements Dao Sutra]. It sped up the creation of the fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth seeds.
They emitted a five-colored light before they began to merge.
Hum-!
It shook as it formed a strange resonance with the [Xiutian Art]’s seed. I can feel them growing stronger as they do so.
The roars of dragons, the overbearing nature of the mountain, the sharpness of metal…
Swoosh-!
That wasn’t the end.
The ninth seed akin to clouds emerged. It came from my [Cloud Seeking Steps].
The “clouds” mentioned in the technique popped in my mind.
Their contexts can be different.
They can be the clouds in the sky. They can also be the cosmic clouds in the universe. The changing context represented its highest limits.
The seed responded to my thoughts. It shifted from normal clouds into a starry nebula. The notion of an entire universe being a “cloud” emerged in my mind, though it did not cause any more changes.
Seeing these changes happen simultaneously is about to overwhelm my mind. The resonance and changes of these nine Supernatural Seeds is enough to send me to a state of enlightenment.
Just then…
Shiing-!
The tenth supernatural seed emerged. The [Daluo Sword Art] became exaggeratingly active.
Previously, it had two functions. One is the comprehension of things it destroys. The other is the stacking of perceptions—swords or not—into a single sword strike.
My increasingly dazed state showed me the changes in nature. All of them began to get stained with a sharp and unyielding aura.
Sword Heart. To polish one’s heart.
Sword Nurturing Pagoda. To nourish one’s intention.
Thunder-Like Sword. To showcase one’s determination, striking as fast as a thunderclap.
The accomplishments of my previous sword cultivations are laid bare.
On one side are the changes in nature. In the other is the sharpness and unyieldingness of a sword.
Turns out…
The colored-light can contain both nature and sword in one.
RUMBLE-!
The last thing I saw was a huge aurora before falling into my enlightenment.

A/N: Bonus chapter. The stocked-up enlightenment he could not have broke out all at once. We'll be getting more character interactions next (and what happened to Cocolia's shenanigans).
