Chapter 321: A single thread of infinitely profound energy.
The pure energy in a radius so big cultivators of their level couldn\'t perceive rushed toward the seductive woman, creating a titanic vortex. The dragoness floated upward, a feat that was not difficult because of the ongoing events, and rose until she was ten meters above the ground.
Then, she waved her hand and summoned a black, ominous sphere below her.
Tang Xian and Long Baidi immediately recognized it. It was the treasure that Yasenia had taken from the underground crypt!
Their eyes became greedy, but they could do nothing about it! They could only watch with pure envy coursing through their veins as the events moved on.
The three-meter wide sphere floated below Yasenia, and a pulling force that made even the spectators\' hair pull toward it appeared. The vortex of energy Yasenia was absorbing changed course, and instead of continuing to flow toward her body, it rushed toward the sphere.
Meanwhile, Yasenia raised her head, looking at the sky in a trance. Her eyes looked past the Tribulation Clouds as if her gaze was piercing directly into the Firmament.
Far away from where she was.
Far away from the World.
Far into the endless depths of the Universe.
The [Celestial Pearl] in her dantian spun violently at that moment! The seemingly neverending vortex of energy gathering toward Yasenia and the Black Sphere changed from semi-transparent to something similar to a river of stars.
The moment the [Celestial Pearl] activated, it was as if a galaxy was born below Yasenia, creating a spectacularly beautiful view.
Then, above the Tribulation Clouds, as if responding to some sort of call, the stars, Sun, and Moon in the sky shot a beam toward Yasenia.
It was similar to the event that happened when Yasenia made the initiation ritual when she was one year old!
However, this time the giant golden beam, the giant silver beam, and countless smaller but numerous white beams didn\'t explode mid-way to create some letters.
Those zoomed at fantastic speeds and smashed through the terrifying Black Tribulation Clouds.
The abyss in the sky was forcefully opened by those beams, as if bombs had exploded on the clouds, creating holes wherever they passed. However, they didn\'t stop at obliterating half of the Tribulation; they all bent and rushed toward the growing galaxy below Yasenia and the black sphere.
The strength of those beams was terrifying, and the spectators thought that Yasenia was done for! Nonetheless, the moment they were about to hit her with full force, a pulse of energy came from Yasenia\'s dantian, created by the [Celestial Pearl].
The ripple in space expanded, and all those beams shattered and broke into particles, creating a star-field-like surrounding around the dragoness, littered with silver, golden, and white stars.
The next second, the ripple that spread from Yasenia seemed to rewind in time, and a tremendous suction force came from Yasenia\'s dantian.
The star-like particles floating in the surrounding rushed toward the floating dragoness instead of the Black Sphere. As the pulse sunk into Yasenia, it carried every one of those particles inside of her.
The [Celestial Pearl] in her dantian spun rapidly, creating a disc around it as it devoured everything. Like a black hole, everything rushed inside of it.
The Pearl\'s silver, golden, and white colors fully awakened and moved across the Pearl. It was even more vivid than when Yasenia first took it from Cecile.
The [Celestial Pearl] activated and flooded Yasenia\'s body with its particular energy. Yasenia\'s strength leaped tremendously for an instant. In that moment so small to even perceive, Yasenia felt like she could shatter stars and create new ones. She felt in control of everything around her, Yasenia muttered. "I see. This is what it feels like to control the Firmament."
That instant was all it took.
Yasenia\'s comprehension of the [Connection with the Celestial Bodies] completely broke through, and her aura became even denser. The floor, ten meters below her, sunk because of the tremendous pressure Yasenia currently gave.
Cracks filled the surroundings, and the Earth trembled. The shine from the galaxy of energy surrounding her seemed to dim the World, only leaving Yasenia, the Black Sphere, and the brilliant vortex of energy spinning around them.
The pressure she gave was not something someone at her level or even someone inside the Unification Realm should have.
But It didn\'t end there.
As the land around Yasenia seemed about to collapse, Yasenia\'s aura increased again as she released her five domains, creating an empyrean sight around her.
[Day and Night Cycle] created a phantom sky above her, reaching beyond the reforming Tribulation Clouds.
[Moonless Night] Changed the phantom sky into a night sky and made the surroundings gain a silvery light.
[Freezing Moon Domain] created the silhouette of the Moon in the phantom night sky, flooding the surroundings with Moonlight. At the same time, harmless, beautiful silver snow fell all around.
[Scorched Sun Domain] created the silhouette of the Sun opposite to the Moon, parting the sky in day and night.
The glow from the Moon and light from the Sun intertwined beautifully, illuminating the surroundings.
Finally, [Star Night Domain] appeared. This domain filled the whole phantom sky and Yasenia\'s surroundings with countless stars, making everything gain a mystical white glitter.
After the five domains unfurled, it was as if everything around Yasenia was coated by Celestial light.
The spectators couldn\'t even move as they viewed the giant galaxy surrounded by all the Celestial Bodies.
Then, Yasenia made use of her current absurd pressure and weaved the five domains and the galaxy below her together. Yasenia danced in the sky, moving the Sun, the Moon, and the Stars.
Like a Celestial Goddess, the phantom images bent to her will, moving accordingly.
The Phantom Moon and Sun danced around each other, the stars surrounded them, and the galaxy below Yasenia\'s feet spun above them.
They all combined to create a brand new domain. It was the infant stage of Yasenia\'s True Domain. Something that would grow beside her for the rest of her journey. Its name…
[Empyrean Galaxy Domain].
Her innate domain was born, and with it, all the puzzle pieces she needed were gathered.
The [Celestial Pearl], [Empyrean Galaxy Domain], [Connection With the Celestial Bodies], [Celestial Dress], and finally, the Black Sphere she gained in the Underground.
The name of the Black Sphere in the Underground was [Primordial Energy Core]. The reward for the highest difficulty Trial.
It was part of the much bigger core that fueled the whole Secret Realm, and that was why the Lost Town didn\'t lose its functions after Yasenia took it away. There was a much bigger piece that made the whole Secret Realm function.
Of course, Yasenia wasn\'t the first one to challenge the hardest difficulty of the test, but what was special about Yasenia was that she met Han Xue and entered the test much earlier, giving her an advantage.
If that didn\'t happen, another person would have overcome their Trial before the two real-time weeks she spent inside the Trial passed.
This core was special because it would serve as Yasenia\'s new Dantian, and since it was another Natural Treasure, it could grow with its user and integrate perfectly, allowing the events about to happen to be possible.
Remember, all this was the preparation for the real deal.
Yasenia commanded, her voice spreading around the Secret Realm. "[Celestial Pearl], show me the Universe."
As soon as her voice left her mouth, the [Empyrean Galaxy Domain] activated full force and isolated every energy that wasn\'t Sun, Moon, or Star energy. At the same time, the [Primordial Energy Core] transferred the absurd amounts of energy it had absorbed up to that moment, shooting it toward the dragoness.
Inside her Dantian, the [Celestial Pearl] absorbed Yasenia\'s and the surrounding energy without stopping. Like a voracious beast. Even the 100.000 thousand points she had previously reserved were ravenously devoured.
However, this frantic absorption wasn\'t without consequences.
Yasenia\'s cultivation which had advanced to the peak of the Half-Step of the Mental Nourishing Realm, began lowering.
The [Celestial Pearl] was devouring everything like a black hole, including Yasenia\'s cultivation!
The ninth level, the eighth level, and the seventh level. Everyone clearly saw Yasenia\'s cultivation decreasing each second.
Even then, the aura emitting from Yasenia didn\'t become smaller. On the contrary, it kept growing.
As Yasenia\'s cultivation lowered, some had gleeful smiles, and some had worried eyes.
"Hahaha! Deviation! Her cultivation had deviated!"
"She is losing her cultivation? I knew it. Everything was too good to be true."
Angel frowned, but before she asked, Mirrory said. "Just watch. You can\'t do anything, even if this means her cultivation is deviating. Therefore, just look at her and trust in her."
Cecile, Andrea, Angel, Evelyn, and Kali looked at Mirrory for some seconds, but no one said anything more. They turned their sights toward the weakening Yasenia and refused to blink.
As Yasenia\'s cultivation fell into the Body Modification Realm, the speed of its decreasing increased. The seventh level, the third level, the first level, and finally, she fell back into the Opening realm.
Yasenia was pale, her body looked completely drained, and the previous blood mist around her had disappeared, leaving behind a dull-looking dragoness. However, although that aspect brought extreme glee to many and sorrow to others, no one missed that in Yasenia\'s stomach, something was glowing so bright it pierced Yasenia\'s skin.
The moment, Yasenia\'s cultivation completely disappeared, the World stilled. All the events around Yasenia disappeared, and everything seemed to have been banished.
Nevertheless, the Tribulation Clouds in the sky didn\'t become smaller but increased in strength.
From Yasenia\'s Dantian, a single thread of starry-blue energy manifested. It was as thin as a finger and as long as a hand.
When that infinitely profound and beautiful thread appeared before Yasenia, the surrounding people felt like a mountain slammed on their shoulders and all people, without exceptions, fell face-first to the ground.
