Death… And Me Chapter 962 - Paths...

Chapter 962 - Paths...

In an instant, Rean and Roan noticed a difference when breaking through a higher stage with Divine Energy. "There's no chaotic energy after the breakthrough!"

Be it the twins or the people they knew, everyone would have to first stabilize their foundations after a breakthrough. That's because a breakthrough would throw the energies in their dantians and cores into chaos. That was also why Roan learned how to concoct Foundation Estabilizing Pills. However, there was no such thing after breaking through with Divine Energy!

[You can be ecstatic about it later.] Sister Orb warned. [The Divine Stream Lake has already lost 20% of its water. Try to reach the limit of the Nascent Soul Realm and the limit of Stage Five before it all dissipates. I'll keep the extra concentrated Divine Energy in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm once you're ready to enter the Soul Transformation Realm.]

Celis narrowed his eyes after that, asking, 'My cultivation is limited by the twins' cultivation as well, just like Kentucky. Doesn't that mean that I won't be able to enter Stage Six until they find their own paths?'

Kentucky had to admit that Celis's words made sense.. 'What should we do? Just wait then?

Sister Orb confirmed their doubts, saying, [That's true. But there's nothing we can do about it other than to just wait. Just make sure you reach the limit in terms of energy.]

Rean didn't seem too worried, though. 'Finding one's path? I don't think that's a problem for me.' Rean then looked at Roan with a smile on his face, asking him, 'What about you? Will you drag us down?'

Roan snorted at Rean's question, responding, 'Hmph! If you think you've already found your path, then I obviously did it much earlier. In fact, I've already known my own path even before learning that it was necessary for the Soul Transformation Realm.' Of course, Rean did not mind losing to anyone...but Rean. His pride wouldn't allow that.

Celis, Kentucky, and Sister Orb were surprised to hear that. 'Great! With that, let's keep up the pace. We only needed 20% of the lake's energy to enter the Peak Stage. 80% should be more than enough to achieve a breakthrough!' Kentucky said with an excited expression. Demon Beasts really had it easy without needing the same requirements. On the other hand, they didn't have cultivation manuals and things like that either, which could improve their abilities.

[Are you sure those are your paths? Be aware that a breakthrough won't happen if it isn't really what you want.]

Rean laughed as he answered, "Don't worry, don't worry! If our paths are wrong, we'll still reach the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, so that's fine. The worst that can happen is that we won't break through straight away."

Sister Orb had to admit Rean was right, prompting her to mutter, [Well...I guess so.]

The consecutive breakthroughs among the twins' group didn't attract any attention whatsoever. That's because they were just a few of the many, many breakthroughs happening all around. Even Cynthia felt that there was enough Divine Energy for her to achieve a breakthrough as well.

As for Sister Orb and Celis's combined effort of storing Divine Energy, no one noticed it yet as they were being very careful. As much as no one could do anything about it, there wasn't a need to let anyone know.

Time pa.s.sed as the Divine Stream Lake continued to boil. The Divine Energy flowed nonstop, allowing for many breakthroughs, especially those with low cultivations like the Core Formation Realm guards. One of the guards, who was already at the Peak Stage of the Core Formation Realm, had no issues advancing into the Core and Soul Fusion Realm, much to his delight.

Eventually, the lake only had 10% of its Divine Energy Water left. It was then that the twins' group reached the limit of the Nascent Soul Realm and the limit of Stage Five.

The moment that happened, the twins finally understood how breaking through the Soul Transformation Realm worked. After all, it wasn't something that could be explained with a manual. It was a path one had to believe in.

Roan felt like all the lives he had sent to the reincarnation path were pa.s.sing before his eyes. Every single one of them was only able to reincarnate because of his efforts as a Death Spirit. There was a reason for Roan (Or Tera) to be considered one of the best Death Spirits back in the Universal Transition Organization. That's because he truly liked it. Even now, if Roan was given a choice, he would choose to go back to be a Death Spirit on the other half of the Universe. Being a Soul Guide had always been Roan's path. Even now that he was alive, he still believed that such a life was his real path.

As if answering Roan's thoughts, Roan's soul seemed to change form as it began to gather Divine Energy nonstop. The once most delicate part of one's life was getting st.u.r.dier, bigger, and more powerful. Roan was entering the Soul Transformation Realm without any issues whatsoever. Even if Roan had never encountered the Soul Gem System, he would still easily break through into the Soul Transformation Realm for the same reason. Death...had always been his path.

Rean's path, on the other hand, was the polar opposite of Roan. As one could remember, Rean had an issue with his soul that inhibited his emotions during his entire life on Earth. Because of that, he had never enjoyed anything. Or, to be more specific, he had never felt alive back then. After that problem was resolved, Rean understood that he loved to be alive more than anything else. To enjoy every moment of his new life.

When Rean heard about what was necessary to enter the Soul Transformation Realm, he didn't need to think too much to understand it. Although it was simple, it was hard at the same time. Being alive to experience everything he did so far meant everything for Rean! And he was sure that it would continue to be the same. Life... had always been his path.

Just like Roan, Rean's soul also started to transform the moment his cultivation reached the limit of the Nascent Soul Realm.
