Global Descent: I Alone Can See Hidden Evolution Paths

Chapter 83: Breakthrough and the Silk of the Divine Soul

The air within the private pavilion of the Void-Emperor Imperial Haven grew thick and heavy, humming with a pressure that was entirely different from the crude kinetic friction of the lower-plane dungeons. It was spiritual energy, pure and unrefined, drifting through the room like a dense, golden fog that smelled faintly of wild pine and ozone.

At the center of the plush velvet rug, Min-jae sat cross-legged, his posture straight and his hands resting calmly on his knees. His loose black silk shirt fluttered slightly from the internal draft generated by his own expanding meridians. Circling him in a precise, interlocking formation were his ten wives, their hands lightly entwined to maintain the boundary lines of the newly unsealed dual cultivation loop.

To his immediate left, Liu Xiao leaned her voluptuous hourglass frame forward, her exotic emerald-green eyes tracking the steady rise of the gold mist around his collar. "The Lower Realm’s spiritual density is sparse, Min-jae, but our interconnected faction core is forcing a localized vacuum. Do not rush the purification. Let my nature channels filter the raw sediment first."

Medusa, sitting pressed against his right flank, let out a soft, seductive hum that vibrated directly against his arm. Her pale bare shoulders glistened under the light of the pavilion lamps. "My father’s royal archives always stated that breaking the mortal cap required centuries of solitary cave meditation. Yet here we are, playing with the universal ledger like a toy. If the suitor Zarek could see us now, his remaining code would dissolve from sheer humiliation."

Min-jae turned his face slightly, a sudden wave of standard human shyness hitting his chest as Medusa’s full chest lightly brushed against his arm during her breathing cycle. A noticeable, deep crimson flush crept up his neck beneath his collar, his ears burning a deep pink. Even after systematically erasing cosmic empires, dealing with the concentrated proximity of his beautiful wives during a synchronization cycle thoroughly short-circuited his cold fixer brain.

"Focus on your baseline retention loops, Medusa," Min-jae muttered, his voice dropping into a low, slightly flustered baritone that made his ears burn even deeper. "The calculation limits don’t care about royal commentary."

Yoo Ji-a, sitting directly across from his knee with her cross-legged posture tight and athletic, opened one violet eye, her face flushing a deep, playful pink as she noticed his embarrassment. Her long midnight-black ponytail swayed slightly against her shoulder. "Look at the master, girls! He can solo-tank a Level 75 Sovereign Class World Boss without shifting his stance, but the second we tighten the cultivation loop, his ears turn brighter than a white solar flare! Don’t look away, Min-jae, you promised us a real joint wedding registry once the ledger cleared. You have to get used to our warmth."

"Ji-a is entirely correct, Savior," Han Seo-yoon added smoothly from his flank, her soft hourglass curves shifting as she adjusted her posture on the rug. Her sapphire-blue eyes were exceptionally gentle, pooled with a deep, adoring devotion. "We spent four months grinding through the lower planes thinking our worldly status mattered. But this loop... it feels like our souls are literally being stitched into the same fabric as your throne. I can feel your heart baseline vibrating inside my own chest."

"It’s because the system’s new code is completely absolute," Han Chae-won barked happily from the rear line, her petite frame practically vibrating with high-energy excitement. Her cheeks were puffed up like a greedy hamster as she tracked the incoming energy numbers. "Every time Min-jae purifies a single drop of spiritual nectar, it duplicates ten times and drops straight into our personal accounts! And since the three goddesses are already sitting comfortably inside the Divine Soul Realm, their existing immortal energy is siphoning backward down the link to act as a massive booster engine for the rest of us!"

Min-jae closed his deadpan black eyes, choosing to silence the playful bickering of his court by fully activating the internal combustion of his Ancient Vajra World-Breaker Core.

Crash!.

The room fell into an immediate, suffocating silence as a massive, golden-white vortex of primordial fire violently erupted from Min-jae’s skin. The dual cultivation resonance didn’t just initialize; it roared like a living, sentient entity. Because Liu Xiao, Gu Bylai, and Medusa were already recognized by the universe as immortal entities sitting at the Level 55 baseline, Min-jae’s mortal body didn’t have to slowly crawl through the standard bottlenecks. Their existing Divine Soul parameters acted like a heavy gravitational anchor, forcefully pulling his Level 50 matrix straight up the ascension ladder.

[Dual Cultivation Resonance Peak Attained!]

[Siphoning Divine Soul Essence from Subordinates: Liu Xiao, Gu Bylai, Medusa!]

[Your Faction Core is forcing a Breakthrough Sequence... 100% Success!]

[Player Kang Min-jae has broken through the Mortal Cap! Current Status: Level 55 — Divine Soul Realm!]

[Lifespan Modifier Applied: Your human flesh has been permanently refined! Your baseline lifespan has expanded to 5,000 Years!]

*Transformation*

A catastrophic, blinding shockwave of pristine emerald starlight and white-hot solar lightning violently exploded from Min-jae’s core, traveling outward in a three-mile absolute circle that completely cleared the surrounding sub-space vacuum. The raw breakthrough energy didn’t just fill his own meridians; due to the reciprocal feedback loop, the 100% duplicated energy benefit forcefully flooded down the connection links, slamming straight into the bodies of his seven human wives.

"Ah...!" Yoo Ji-a let out a soft, breathless gasp as her athletic frame was violently lifted three inches off the plush rug by the incoming spiritual tide. Her narrow waist arched slightly as Min-jae’s pure solar energy flushed the last remnants of mortal impurity out of her veins.

Han Seo-yoon, Major General Shin Ye-rin, Han Chae-won, Lady Crimson, and the Vance sisters all let out synchronous, soft melodies of surprise as the system’s ascension laws forcefully overrode their physical parameters. In less than a fraction of a millisecond, the entire vanguard line broke through the mortal cap simultaneously, their individual level needles clicking firmly into the Divine Soul Realm (Level 55).

As the blinding gold starlight began to settle, a sudden, reality-warping visual evolution triggered across the entire harem.

The crude, simple lower-plane training gear, tight athletic tank tops, and standard military uniform shirts worn by the human girls completely dissolved into thousands of flying light pixels. In their place, the universe’s transformation laws materialized entirely new, ultra-luxury attire that matched their new immortal status.

Yoo Ji-a’s tight sleeveless shirt vanished, replaced by an exceptionally elegant, flowing traditional hanfu gown made of premium, light violet and radiant lavender silk. The smooth fabric clung flawlessly to her voluptuous curves, leaving her pale, athletic bare shoulders completely exposed, while long, billowy sleeves of translucent white tulle drifted around her narrow waist like gentle mist. Han Seo-yoon’s gown shifted into a staggering, sapphire-blue and silver silk weave that perfectly outlined her heavy chest and rounded hips, her silver tiara glistening under the new aura.

One by one, all ten queens stood fully arrayed in long, sweeping silky clothes that swept across the white marble blocks, their silhouettes radiating the exact same majestic, noble, and breathtakingly beautiful appearance as Liu Xiao, Gu Bylai, and Medusa.

Min-jae slowly opened his deadpan eyes, rising to his full height. His own black silk shirt had lengthened slightly, the fabric carrying a faint, shifting golden rune pattern that outlined his lean, muscular shoulders.

The moment his boots touched the stone, the ten queens opened their eyes. Realizing that their lifespans had just jumped to thousands of years and that their bodies were permanently safe from aging, their frantic, deep-seated terror of one day leaving him behind completely shattered. A wave of profound, fanatical adoration flooded the lounge.

"Min-jae... I can feel it," Yoo Ji-a whispered, her voice losing its fierce vanguard edge, turning into a low, trembling melody as she looked down at her long lavender silk sleeves. Her face flushed a deep, sultry crimson as she took a hesitant step forward, her heart racing violently. "The mortal clock in my brain... it stopped ticking. I can stay by your flank forever now."

Without a single shred of her former pride, the athletic vanguard queen threw her exceptionally voluptuous, silk-draped curves straight into his chest, her slender arms wrapping tightly around his neck.

"We are completely bound to your ledger now, husband," Han Seo-yoon murmured, her sapphire eyes pooled with thick tears of pure, desperate happiness as she and the rest of the human queens quickly moved into his personal space, their soft, heavy curves pressing tightly against his flanks.

Liu Xiao and Medusa leaned their voluptuous silhouettes against his shoulders, their emerald and icy-blue eyes flashing with a beautiful, genuinely satisfied smirk as they watched their family become entirely whole. "The loop is perfect, Monarch. Now, every single breath we take inside this palace multiplies your own cultivation speed by ten. No one can ever take this hearth away from us."
