This region had almost become a forbidden zone of Heaven-Seed power.
Jun Yao's whole body erupted with radiant light-scales, lifting one crystal-clear light barrier after another, her Light Element power struggling to hold on.
Her expression trembled. The Healing Star River in her spiritual world swayed, actually showing a trace of fear.
She originally thought the new boss's cultivation progress this time was already enormous, but she had still underestimated it.
At the same time, another person sensed the disturbance here. A graceful figure rose from the edge of a private beach, spiraling air currents whipping the sea below into waterspouts.
Lu Mei's voluptuous body was wrapped in a dazzling eight-colored wind ribbon; six pure-white wings flapped behind her, as though a Goddess of Storms had descended. Her beautiful eyes stared solemnly at the black-and-white interwoven domain ahead, worried for her younger brother.
Nine days ago she had followed the clues and found Lu Jun's residence.
But after Jiuyou later told her that her brother was at the critical moment of breakthrough, she didn't dare to disturb him.
She planned to wait until Lu Jun completed his breakthrough and stabilized his cultivation before coming over to hold him accountable.
Yet Lu Mei had witnessed many breakthroughs, from the Basic-Tier to the Super-Tier many causing huge phenomena but she had never seen a scene like this, practically equivalent to the blast of a Super-tier spell.
The only explanation was a failed breakthrough causing him to lose control of his magic energy.
How could Lu Mei not worry, especially when she could instantly see that this domain contained Curse, Psychic, Undead, Healing— pairs of completely opposite, violently conflicting magic elements.
Just as the two women held different thoughts, at the center of the anomaly, Lu Jun felt the vast dormant power within his spiritual cosmos and could not help feeling satisfied.
Meanwhile, the silver moon at his brow grew even more brilliant, nearly turning into a blazing sun. Clearly, with the breakthroughs of both Super-tier Curse and Super-tier Psychic, his spiritual realm was ascending as well.
Ascending toward the Seventh Realm of the Spiritual Domain— the level belonging to Heaven-Seed methods capable of granting enormous magic amplification, at least tenfold.
Lu Jun thought about it. He had lingered at the Sixth Spiritual Realm for a long time, having achieved it back when all his elements were only around High-Tier Level One or Two. Only now, after reaching dual-element Super-tier and nearly full High-Tier mastery across all elements, had he finally broken through.
The accumulation of Psychic, Curse, Summoning, and Space over the years was finally transforming into a butterfly at this moment.
Of course, his month in Parthenon Temple cultivating his heart through the tides of mortal faith, as well as the nine life-and-death temperings of his essence, qi, and spirit, were indispensable.
Boom!
Finally, Lu Jun's mind shook violently. The silver sun between his brows split open, and a magnificent Heavenly Gate stood tall. At its center, an immortal-like figure condensed, the entire form ethereal and dynamic, countless light feathers drifting around it as if ascending on clouds.
He closed his eyes to sense, feeling his soul undergoing fierce tempering. When he looked inward, he actually saw himself.
Within the vast spiritual sea, a three-inch-tall radiant little figure floated— identical in appearance to him, its entire body lifelike, as if made of real flesh and blood.
This was a trace of divinity derived under the influence of his soul and Ding Yumian's Calamity-Bearer talent, sublimated into a Soul Core— perhaps soon becoming a Nascent Soul?
At his thought, the Nascent Soul felt the impulse to transcend the flesh, existing eternally outside the body.
This was not illusion. The upper three realms of the Spiritual Domain were also called the Spirit Heavenly Realm!
Even if the flesh died, as long as obsession remained, one could transform into a vengeful spirit and survive, and after a bit of cultivation, become a Monarch-level Ghost.
From now on, he could extend his consciousness into countless dimensional voids, or let his will descend thousands of kilometers in an instant. His perception expanded drastically, covering hundreds of kilometers. The rest would require later exploration.
However, when his spiritual senses extended, he "glimpsed" a certain familiar beauty. His expression stiffened, and he quietly withdrew all anomalies.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Lu Jun activated his Nascent Soul, and under the pressure of his vast spiritual force, all the chaotic energies were forcefully suppressed.
The strange black-and-white sky outside vanished instantly, returning to a peaceful coastal beach. If not for one side still brimming with life and the other still deathly silent, one might have mistaken it for an illusion.
He had no time to reunite with his elder sister. He immediately closed his eyes to organize his inner changes and stabilize his cultivation.
This breakthrough was huge— dual-element Super-tier Curse and Psychic, Seventh Realm Spiritual Domain, Sixth Realm Blood and Qi, and even new awakenings of the Healing and Undead Elements.
There wasn't much to say about breaking Curse and Psychic into the Star Cosmos. To turn them into real combat power, he would need an enormous amount of time to control all 2,401 stars. Even Mo Fan in the original story took a long time to release them.
But the rise to the Seventh Spiritual Realm was the most direct improvement. From this point forward, any spell from Curse, Psychic, Space, or Summoning would have its power increased more than tenfold.
In his normal state, Lu Jun's combat strength could easily contend with an official Monarch-level creature.
"Didn't expect this… I thought I'd have to wait for the Mind Stones that Pang Lai bought before I could break through, but I didn't expect new opportunities instead."
He sighed deeply, but he did not intend to stop Pang Lai. On the contrary, he planned to increase the investment and strive to reach an even higher level— the Eighth Realm.
After all, Lu Jun currently had no resistance to medicinal effects. The strengthening of his Spiritual Domain would be extremely rapid. It wasn't impossible for him to condense the Calamity-Psychic talent later on and catch up to Ding Yumian's progress.
As for the Sixth Realm of Blood and Qi, there wasn't much to say. His resistance to damage increased, his vitality became tougher, and he could withstand far more attacks.
Lu Jun mainly focused his attention on the newly formed Healing and Undead Stardust. The milky white and black-gray lights reflected one another, two sides of the same body, clinging tightly together.
Even without deliberately cultivating them, with each breath he was actually absorbing Life and Death-Spirit elements from the void, visibly strengthening. This was the manifestation of the Calamity-Bearer Talent.
Combined with the Divine Soul and Ancient King Armor, two supreme treasures anchoring them, their foundations continuously overflowed with essence and were refined. The Intermediate-tier barrier might as well have not existed— with just a bit of cultivation, they broke through.
Their growth environment was simply too overwhelmingly advantageous, far stronger than their six older "siblings." It could only be said that the youngest was always the most spoiled.
The Curse Element wanted to cry— originally, it relied on the corrupting aura emitted by the Ancient King Armor to grow slowly without cultivation. But now that energy had been diverted to the two little newcomers.
And in terms of elemental compatibility, the latter two absorbed and digested that energy several times better than it did.
Of course, Lu Jun had no cultivation experience in the Healing and Undead Elements. The original story mentioned nothing about them. They did not benefit from Spiritual Domain amplification, nor from elemental spirits like other elements. Their advancement paths were unique and would require slow exploration.
"Still, even so, the boost from the Divine Soul and Ancient King Armor is way too big… and there's also the Calamity-Bearer Talent and the Super-tier Extra Effect!"
Lu Jun sucked in cold breaths one after another. The first two could be explained, but the latter was a Innate Talent that every Super-tier mage had a chance of awakening upon obtaining their fourth element. He didn't expect both of his new elements to strike lucky.
It seemed to be due to Super-tier mages being immersed in magic day and night, their bodies gradually becoming infused with magic power, leading to transformations.
Originally, when Mo Fan awakened his Earth Element at Super-Tier, it came with the extra effect Stone Crushing, and the way his magic manifested under Super-tier control was also vastly different.
