Soul essence continually poured into their Spiritual Sea, expanding it and nurturing it at explosive rates. Their whole dantian space violently trembles as if numerous earthquakes were ovepping on top of each other. A fog of soul essence had also enveloped the space.
And within their soul space, a heavy, misty fog covered every inch of it.
Within mere minutes, Cain finally felt a tremendous change in his dantian. He sunk his consciousness inside and was eager at the sight.
Through the fog of soul essence, he witnessed his Sacred Sage Core violently pulsating. It was at the cusps of breaking open. There was only one thing holding it back.
At this time, Cain, for a very brief moment, felt a huge block attempting to halt his Spiritual Sea advancement. But through the power of the soul essence, the Martial Mental barrier shattered to utter bits!
''Bang!''
When thatst mortal Martial Mental barrier shattered, it instantly transformed Cain. His Sacred Sage Core, Qi Origin Marks, and Lightning Marks allbusted, releasing its purest form of energy grains.
The energy grains fused with the surrounding soul essence, forming into a shape of a small seed.
This small seed had intense spatial warping properties and had ayer of fog wrapping around it.
When the tiny seed formed, that wasn''t the end. It instantly began to violently pulsate like a beating heart, as if it was close to another transformation.
At this time, Cain had entered an enlightened trance. His Spiritual Sea was no longer a mere mortal Spirit Sense. It broadened to unimaginable heights,pletely breaking past all limits of mortality.
All new sensations flooded Cain''s mind. These sensations felt as if they came to a different dimension.
Compared to Origin energy or Major Law essence, it pales inparison to these sensations.
Naturally, these sensations were the Divine Essence of the entire universe!
With Venerate Soul''s essence, he had finally reached the most critical step of a cultivator''s journey.
The Divine Perishing realm.
This was basically the half-step realm to Divine Origin. Passing this realm allows one to transcend the mortal coil, bing something truly Divine.
Failure meant one and only one thing.
Death!
As Cain and Amber perceived these Divine sensations, ck clouds began to rapidly form over their heads.
The ck clouds stretched out for five meters and began to shake the longer they existed. These ck clouds didn''t look particrlyrge or imposing. However, a terrifying presence, one that froze the space itself, exuded out of both clouds. It was as if Heaven itself suddenly formed over the duo''s head.
The presence was ancient, far older than any living being in the Divine Boundless Heaven. The pressure it naturally discharged causedrge parts of the air to crack open into a small ck hole.
World Source Laws and Space Laws couldn''t withstand the presence pressure. Even the Divine Essence frantically dispersed by just these ck clouds'' presence.
If a Heavenly Venerate were here, even almighty figures like them would be shocked to their very soul''s cores at these ck clouds'' appearance.
These ck clouds were the infamous tribtion clouds!
This was the test of the Heavenly Daos. For daring to go against all natural orders, shedding mortality, and attaining Divinity, anyone would need to survive the wrath of the Heavenly Daos.
This was Heaven Will''s attempt to get rid of what is trying to disrupt the natural order of the universe.
Nearly all Martial cultivators aren''t content with obeying the Heaven and Earth. They have the will to rise above it for the slightest chance of immortality!
For such lofty ambitions, the Heavens dishes out the ording punishment.
Cain and Amber remained seemingly unaware of the tribtion clouds. They focused entirely on perceiving Divine Sensations, no matter the change in the environment.
Within minutes, the tribtions clouds finished forming. Upon solidifying, thunderous booms roared out of both clouds.
Any Divine Origins merely listening to these thunderous booms would have their eardrums burst open into a bloody mess.
The tribtions clouds suddenly gleamed a profound ck glow. Engulfing the whole altar room in eternal darkness, the tribtions clouds trembled and sted out a horrifying ck lightning strike!
''Bang!!''
Cain''s and Amber''s mortal bodies couldn''t withstand such a strike. Their bodies nearly crumbled into blood mist. However, this wasn''t the final straw that made thembust.
Within their dantians, when the ck lightning essence spread throughout their entire beings, their Inner World Seed rapidly absorbed as much as it can. After a few seconds, the seed was overloaded with ck lightning.
Then, the Inner World Seed finally erupted!
Their dantianspletely exploded and their bodies had finallybusted. The Inner World Seed energies caused them to turn into blood mist.
If any cultivator were to lose their mortal bodies, then it would be given over. Absolutely nothing could be done.
However, for and only in the Divine Perishing realm can a cultivator survive while being reduced to a mist of blood.<sub> </sub>
Within the mist of blood, Cain''s and Amber''s consciousness were still very aware of everything.
This was the duo''s most primitive form of life. Their primordial life soup.
By the mysterious power of World Source Laws, their primordial life soup was able to stay together.
Within Cain''s primordial life soup, he experienced numerous sensations at the same time. His Chaos energy intensely surged all throughout, rapidly fusing within the very cells of his blood. His soul''s core was still covered by the mistyyer of soul essence. And powerful spatial warping was slowly causing his blood mist to form back together.
During this time, Cain and Amber felt pain like no other. Hellish pain, no, it was something even greater than utter anguish!
They both had immensely high pain tolerance, but even the duo wanted to scream out at this moment.
However, in their primordial life soup, they had no chance to scream out. They can only desperately endure the deathly pain while forcing their Spiritual Sea to perceive everything with the primordial life soup.
Thankfully, due to the nourishment of soul essence, the duo didn''t have to take long when perceiving the sensations to ascend into Divinehood.
Coupled with the fact they both have at least quasi-expert level attainment in the two major Martial paths, theirprehension rose at a lightning-speed rate.
Minutester, Cain felt he was iparably close to the breakthrough of Divine Sense. But right at thest step, a mental barrier suddenly blocked him.
This time, it was in the form of terrifying nightmares. These nightmares were Cain''s most hidden heart demons.
He witnessed before his very eyes Kali getting brutally murdered, Amber forcefully taken right in front of him before getting hacked into pieces and even his grandmother getting killed off in a brutal fashion.
At the same time, Amber experienced her own heart demons.
She witnessed the destruction of her Vampire Family, the brutal deaths of her parents, and Cain slowly dying to hisst breath.
These horrifying images manifest from the deepest fear within their Martial Hearts. If one fails to pass these heart demons, their cultivation won''t just shatter it apart, their minds will break, turning them into an idiot forever!
Against these horrifying images, neither Cain nor Amber panicked. Their mental states were iparably calm.
Without even using the soul essence from their Spiritual Seas, Cain and Amber pushed on with their wills. Their will couldn''t be stopped by mere images.
Nothing, not even the Heavenly Dao itself, can sway their Martial Hearts!
In that moment, Cain developed an understanding: "Bing Divine means to understand the Heaven and Earth and then control it for myself. I don''t bow to the Heavens, all bow down to me. This is my Divine Will, the Will of a Dragon!"
At the same time, Amber''s understanding was, "If I want to achieve something, then I can achieve it. If I want Divinity, then I will attain it. Nothing can force me. Nor can anything disrupt my pace. Everything will be swept into my pace. This is my Divine Will, the Will of a Vampire!"
''Bang!!''
The half-step Mental Divine barrierpletely shattered!
Cain and Amber solidify their will to Divinehood. They''re determined on the path to true immortality!
The duo''s Spiritual Sea erupted on an entirely new level. Everything became incredibly clear within a moment.
To the sensations of Heaven and Earth''s Divine Essence, Laws of the Heavenly Dao, and Laws of the Divine Soul, everything became clear.
It was like the duo had finally opened the door to the dimension of the Divine.
Their Divine Sense had finally formed!
At this time, their tribtion clouds suddenly burst open in a huge release of energy. They both turned into droplets of energy that rained into Cain and Amber''s primordial life soup, rapidly fusing within every inch of their cells.
Contained within the droplets of energy was the purest essence of the Heavenly Daos Laws themselves. These tiny traces of Heavenly Dao Laws exuded the grandest presence across all ages and times. It truly did feel like each droplet withholds the mystery of the entire universe.
When perceiving these droplets, Cain and Amber fell into a magical trance. They didn''t know how long time had passed. It felt as if years passed and a single second passed at the same time.
Within this trance, the droplets of Heavenly Dao Laws spewed a cocoon of energy around Cain and Amber.
Their Inner Worlds were forming at rapid speeds. Powerful Divine Auras wildly gushed out of the ck cocoons. Small distortions of space were already visible by just the breakthrough fluctuations.
Hourster, the Divine Auras suddenly recalled back into the cocoons.
Large cracks started to split all over the ck cocoons. It began to pulsate all over with streaks of Divine lights flickering out.
The light show was spectacr. Even with just ck lights, it created a hypnotic glow that can even suck the soul right out of a person.
The light show onlysted for a few moments.
Afterward, Cain and Amber''s Divine cocoonspletely shattered apart!
Revealing back to the world was Cain and Amber''s true appearance. Their beautiful appearances were enhanced to a whole other ne. Their natural auras seemed all-epassing as if they can sallow the surrounding space.
Cain and Amber had finallypleted their Divine Transformation. They were genuine Divine Origin experts!
