That day…
Cocolia watched as everything she built crumbled down. The Kaslana girl she let go a year ago turned out to be the one who will cause it all. Not a hint of honkai energy was used. Her Titans all fell at the same time. Even her partner who proposed the X-10 Project fell.
Everything that could go wrong went wrong.
Cocolia stared at the ground. She was sent into this interrogation room from the moment she was captured in Siberia. She waited for someone to c...

We talked for two days, slept for two days, and the entire Chiyou fiasco took an entire day.
Five days have passed since I came out of the Sea of Quanta.
I froze.
“Wait a minute. I have to settle something.”
“Um. Go.”
I stood in place. The familiar dark landscape greeted my sight. The golden orb stood amidst.
The draws become shorter as my qi cultivation realm goes up. I can do a random pull once every five days now.
Soon, the draw resul...

The wonders of immortal cultivation are right in front of my eyes. I am aware of being in a daze; of sleeping.
At this level, sleeping is a state with lowest mental power consumption. It allows my mind to recover the fastest.
Every other function of my soul and body is put to the lowest. Experiencing both the “low” (resting) and “high” (practicing) contributes to cultivation.
It is a feat far beyond that of humans’. I am ‘sleeping’ while...

Once the trio arrived, Shi Tian began his storytime. It took several hours to complete.
“A warrior from the Previous Era…”
“He mentioned an interesting plan that you had, Mister Yang.”
Welt Yang understood what Shi Tian asked about. His eyes turned to Kiana. The latter was surprised.
“Me?”
He nodded affirmatively.
“The Second Herrscher once possessed the power of six cores. We also received knowledge about the Previous Era. The fourteenth He...

A cultivator’s sense of time becomes skewed as their realm goes higher.
For two entire days, we did nothing but talk about what happened in the past year. Neither of us took any breaks. The changes between sunlight and moonlight seemed so fast in our eyes.
“Yawn… What time is it?”
Kiana stretched her body. We are sitting on the same couch. She has her feet atop the couch. Her attire is the same casual one she wore back then—t-shirts and shorts.

Otto Apocalypse has a tight schedule.
The second eruption thirteen years ago dealt a devastating blow to Schicksal. Their strongest valkyrie, Cecilia Schariac, died. A number of A Rank Valkyries also died. It created a power vacuum in which Schicksal’s forces got stretched thinly.
It gradually stabilized from the emergence of the S Rank Valkyrie, Theresa Apocalypse.
Now, there is also the prototype of the Immortal Blades led by the potential S Rank Valkyries, Bianka Ataegi...

The items from the draws are not guaranteed.
The most useful ones are pills, spiritual plants, and spiritual ores. What comes next are the ready-made artifacts and formation plates.
There are also the ‘bad’ ones, mainly poison and demonic artifacts.
Finally, there are the ‘miscellaneous’ ones. This ancestral tablet is one of them. Its sole function is to house a soul for thousands of years. It substitutes the physical body, allowing souls to exist instead of di...

There is a price for acting cool… for aura farming.
Using [Sword Light Refraction] once dented my mental capacity by a lot. It is a major realm higher than my current capabilities.
My Qi cultivation that reached middle Purple Mansion or my mental cultivation in late Purple Mansion did not have any chances.
That single attack in this frozen lake almost knocked me out cold.

Su’s situation soon became stable. His body cultivation began to skyrocket with each repair attempt done by spiritual qi. As long as there are spiritual qi present outside, this repair session will not stop.
It is the equivalent of him auto-cultivating his physical body.

Just like that day, he stood in front of a huge tree. It is ninety percent similar to the bubble world where he met Durandal.

Never in Tesla’s life did she feel as comfortable as now. Anti-Entropy’s long experience is primarily in espionage. They are experts at lying low and spying on Schicksal’s work.
Their “2013 Latest Anti-Entropy Invasion Manual” is a testament of that.
In short, their modus operandi is to defeat the strong with the weak; to create plans and take down superhuman valkyries and honkai beasts alike.

A/N: Small revisions (chapter 90). Instead of not finding Cocolia’s base, Kiana found it months ago. Only when I reread it did it sound so forced and unnatural. A peak Foundation Establishment can have a consciousness of fifty miles (80 km). It’s easy to find it even at the depths of the sea.
Either way, nothing much changes from the planned plot. Cocolia is destined not to succeed. Every other outcome will feel so forced (and I don’t like it).

For well over a year, Su watched over Shi Tian. He gradually learned the full extent of immortal cultivation.
Unlike honkai, it relies on external resources and accumulation of time. Pursuing pure immortal cultivation for ten years will not grant the power to contend against the honkai.
A great example of it is the Project Soldier developed during his time. So long as the physical body can adapt to the honkai, they will be given strength comparable to Qi Refining...

The 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.

It wasn’t just Kiana who progressed leaps and bounds. She is, however, the one with the greatest progress.
Middle stage body cultivation, early stage mental cultivation, and early stage qi cultivation. All of it belongs to the Purple Mansion Realm.

The Purple Mansion Realm is the third of the ten levels of immortal cultivation. It is the “transitionary phase” to the Golden Core Realm.
It is related to the development of the soul and spiritual qi.
Qi Refining awakens the dantians. It has gaseous spiritual qi.
Foundation Establishment merges them into a flawless dantian. It has liquid spiritual qi.
Purple Mansion turns the flawless dantian into a crystal dantian.
Spiritual qi is now stored in ...

After three days of fruitless search, Kiana felt extremely depressed. She did not eat during those three days. She used the [Two Phase Art] to convert the surrounding energies into spiritual qi.

“Hngh…”
She woke up with a killer headache. The first thing that surprised Kiana is her current outfit.

Memories surged in her mind. Sirin’s memories, her birth inside Otto’s laboratory, Sirin’s re-awakening, Siegfried’s severed arm…
Her mood sank to the bottom. The only thin...

A huge firework appeared inside the imaginary space. The flaming dragon entered a portal created by Sirin. It was redirected to one of the rocks behind her.
Shi Tian did not use his [Five Elements Dao Sutra] much. His sheer sword intent could not damage Sirin’s void constructs. His spells would end up the same.
In terms of authority, he is far outclassed by Herrscher.

Emperor-class honkai beasts.
They are different from the other honkai beasts. The templars, chariots, and seraphs are mostly physical. Their variants possess an elemental attack, but that was it.
Even if they can spew out fire, create ice, do electric shocks, their powers are similar to the superficial elemental control of Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Things are different with emperor-classes.
On paper, they possess a nerfed authority sim...

A huge, five-storey tall honkai beast greeted my sight. It wielded a lance as a right arm and a twenty to thirty meter tall shield.

The existence of honkai is spread throughout this base. Laboratories experimenting with it have to be built in deep earth layers for precaution. In case something goes wrong, its impact can be isolated. It won’t trigger the satellites placed by their rival organization, Schicksal.
