It no longer felt like a palace; it felt like the den of a monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunny sat on his Throne, his eyes analyzing the entity that stood before him. Beru, the God of Evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The benefits of the breakthrough were immediately apparent, transcribed onto the mind of Sunny through his God’s eyes\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beru stood seven feet tall, his sleek obsidian exoskeleton absorbing the ambient light of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was something else, a layer above his body. It was a translucent film of energy, invisible to the naked eye but deafening to the Divine Sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Conceptual Armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the physical manifestation of the Law of Evolution. It whispered a simple truth to anyone who looked at it: To hurt this being, you must be more evolved than him. And he is the Apex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Zhen, the God of Cultivation, stepped forward. He looked small compared to the insectoid tyrant, but his aura was sharp as a straightsword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to test how strong you have become,\" Cai Zhen said, his voice steady. His eyes scanned Beru’s new form, searching for a weakness and finding none. \"Your presence... it makes my skin crawl. It is a good feeling.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beru tilted his crowned head, his slit pupils narrowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am eager to test the durability of this new shell as well,\" Beru rasped, his voice vibrating deep in his chest. \"But you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed a clawed finger at the cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are a dull blade, Cai Zhen. You are still broken. You are not match for me currently.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beru crossed his arms. \"Take your blessings from the Emperor first. Increase your strength. Then, and only then, will I grant you the honor of being my punching bag.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Zhen gave a small, grim nod. \"Fair enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, he closed his eyes. The adrenaline of the conversation had momentarily suppressed the ghosts haunting his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as Beru mentioned \"Increasing his strength\" some unwanted thoughts suddenly began to appear in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought about the screams. He thought about his burning Sect. He thought about his parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had spent decades running, hiding, and surviving. He had forgotten the thrill of the fight. He had forgotten that before he was a Refugee, he was a Warrior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need to be strong,\" Cai Zhen whispered to himself. \"Not just to survive. But to kill.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunny, watching from the throne, smiled behind his mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good,\" Sunny thought. \"Competition breeds strength. Iron sharpens iron.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up and descended the stairs once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cai Zhen. Step forward.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunny snapped his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>HUMMM.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Space distorted again. A second sphere manifested in the center of the room, it was at the same place where Beru had just transformed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To a mortal, the two spheres might have looked identical, shimmering bubbles of isolation. But to the Gods present, the difference was night and day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beru’s sphere had been empty. His evolution was internal; it required only the catalyst of the Law to trigger a chain reaction on his body. He was a self-contained nuclear bomb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Cai Zhen was a Cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cultivation was the art of theft. It was the act of stealing energy from the heavens and earth, refining it, and storing it within the body. You cannot fill a cup if there is no water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I put him in an empty vacuum, he will dry out before he ascends,\" Sunny noted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The isolation chamber was filled with thick, heavy mist. It wasn’t water vapor; it was Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go,\" Sunny commanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Zhen walked toward the sphere. As he crossed the barrier, he gasped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He staggered, nearly falling to his knees. The density of the Qi was crushing. It was heavier than lead, yet softer than silk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So pure...\" Cai Zhen exclaimed, his eyes widening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his old multiverse, cultivators fought wars over \"Spirit Veins\" that trickled a fraction of this energy. He had spent thousands of years refining impurities out of his Dantian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this? This was pristine. It was the breath of creation before it had been polluted by the chaos of reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every pore on his body opened instinctively. His meridians roared, sucking in the golden mist like a starving man inhaling a feast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I could live here,\" Cai Zhen thought, a wave of euphoria washing over him. \"I could sit here for an eternity and just... exist.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was tempting. To forget the pain. To forget the demons. To just float in this ocean of warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then, he looked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunny had entered the sphere behind him, floating silently in the golden mist like a dark star. The Emperor wasn’t saying anything. He was just watching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sight of the masked figure snapped Cai Zhen out of his trance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’No,’ Cai Zhen scolded himself. ’Comfort is for the dead. I am here for power.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned around and bowed deeply to Sunny.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am ready, Emperor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes burned with a renewed fire. He didn’t want this energy for peace. He wanted it for power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunny nodded. \"Good. The Law of Cultivation is greedy, Cai Zhen. It takes everything. Make sure you have the will to hold it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunny floated closer. He reached out and placed his gloved hand on the cultivator’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunny plunged his consciousness into Cai Zhen’s soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He navigated the complex pathways of the God’s spiritual network. And deep in the center, he found the golden spark of the Void Mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Awaken.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ZING.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reaction was immediate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like with Beru, the Law Particle woke up. It sensed Sunny’s presence, the closest thing to its creator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It shot upward, trying to leave Cai Zhen’s body to fuse with Sunny.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you guys like this,\" Sunny whispered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He caught the particle in his grip. It buzzed against his will, demanding to return to the source.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You have a job to do,\" Sunny commanded, forcing it back down. \"Repair him. Expand him. Make him infinite.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a final push, Sunny shoved the Golden Law deep into Cai Zhen’s Dantian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fuse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunny withdrew his hand and stepped out of the sphere instantly, sealing the barrier behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The transformation began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unlike Beru, there was no pressure. There was no cracking of armor or expanding of flesh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Zhen simply sat down in the lotus position. He closed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then... nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden mist swirled around him, but his body remained still. There was no explosive aura. There was no earth-shattering pressure. He looked like a mortal man taking a nap in a sauna.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seconds passed. Minutes passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beru, watching from the outside, clicked his mandibles in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did it fail?\" Beru asked aloud, voicing the concern of everyone in the room. \"Why isn’t his strength increasing? When I ascended, I felt like I was tearing the universe apart. He looks... asleep.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thera chewed her lip, her hands trembling. \"Maybe... maybe he is still refining the energy? He talked a lot about ’stabilizing the foundation’ during our travels. Perhaps it takes time?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tried to be optimistic, but the lack of reaction was terrifying. Was the Law rejecting him? Was his body too broken to accept the upgrade?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Merlin frowned, shuffling his cards nervously. \"His presence is disappearing. It’s like he’s not even there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the panic began to set in, Sunny walked past them. He climbed the steps to his throne and sat down, utterly unbothered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are looking at this with the eyes of Beru,\" Sunny said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Evolution is explosive. It is external change.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunny pointed at the silent figure in the sphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But Cultivation? Cultivation is an internal conquest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He isn’t sleeping,\" Sunny whispered, his eyes gleaming. \"He is cultivating.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the sphere, Cai Zhen wasn’t silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside his mind, a storm was raging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Golden Law had merged with his Dantian. It began to repair his foundation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Dantian, once a ’Sea of Qi’, shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In its place, a Black Hole formed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden mist filling the sphere, the energy equivalent to the creation of thousand universes... was being sucked into his pores at a very high speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body was compressing the energy. Compressing it until it turned into liquid, liquid into solid, and solid into plasma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Externally, he was still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Internally, he was undergoing a Big Bang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunny looked at the changes in Cai Zhen’s body using his god’s eyes, and smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Talent : The Boundless Dantian (SSS-Grade)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Effect: Energy Capacity is infinite. Passive Qi Regeneration increased by 10,000%.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the golden mist inside the sphere vanished. All of it. Instantly sucked into Cai Zhen’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sphere became clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Zhen opened his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no flash of light. His eyes were simply... deep. They looked like the calm surface of a lake that hid a leviathan beneath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CRACK.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound didn’t come from him. It came from the space around him. The reality of the Throne Room fractured like glass, unable to bear the weight of his existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a breath, and the room trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see,\" Cai Zhen whispered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Sunny and bowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you for this opportunity, Emperor\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1535,"2026-06-03T13:55:08.407Z",1,"novelbin.me","6001d5abaf144f192a78ce2247121bc94ec5d5098463b8144b21431ad7ad7278","global-gods-skill-resonance-awakened-chapter-261","global-gods-skill-resonance-awakened-chapter-320",393,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-gods-skill-resonance-awakened-cover.jpg"]
