Alm and Bruno found Almin in a small building. After a few minutes, when Lyra finally calmed down, the two showed him some peculiar pills.

"These are basic recovery pills, Qi regeneration, and more," Almin briefly explained. "But I used materials from this place. The herbs here have undergone some mutations, and I managed to amplify their effects many times."

Alm and Bruno assessed the pills, surprised. They were all Treasure Pills with twelve rings, and even though they looked simple, they had an incredible efficiency.

"Great, make a lot of them. Everyone from the sect in the sealed worlds can go all out now. We’ll quickly dominate all the sects," the whale said, pleased.

Almin added, "The sects have detailed information about the treasures in the sealed worlds. I picked out some of those treasures, and in the Dao of the Alchemy God, there are pills that can become unmatched when you create them."

The whale nodded. "The situation is calm now. All the newly arrived heroes are investigating the universe. We can only cultivate quietly in preparation for the future. With the resources brought from the sealed worlds, Qi isn’t an issue for now. The main goal now is to make everyone evolve in the most perfect and terrifying way possible. We’ll need you to create a lot of Unmatched Pills to attract tribulations; everyone depends on that."

Almin took a deep breath and handed over a list of materials they needed. He also indicated where to find them in various black sealed worlds across different galaxies. The whale authorized the summoning of all his allies from the Phoenix Cry sect. Since that sect didn’t force its members to stay, they could form a battalion of alchemists to create pills day and night.

Seven days later, Ruri and everyone from the sect returned. The mission had been completed perfectly. Ruri brought back hundreds of spatial rings stuffed with materials for cultivation.

A few soldiers, who were disciples of the Yinblood sect that had been recruited, got lucky after a big battle against sects from other galaxies.

"Those demons from the Shadow God sect, as soon as they found out we were there, formed an alliance and tried to wipe us out," Ruri said coldly. "But I prevented the generals from fighting and limited the squad leaders to using only half of their individual power. I made sure only the recruited soldiers trained and fought with a blade to their necks. We managed to defeat only half of the demons, then their allies fled, abandoning them."

"Good job, they’ll be our sharpening stone. Never show even 10% of your real power; let them think they almost won and encourage them to attack again. Almin will now provide many recovery pills..." The whale paused, thinking about something.

"Hmm, I’ll arrange for some poison to put in the pills. In the Twelve Peaks Forest, many species of poisonous herbs have appeared. They won’t die from the pills, but I’ll make them wish they were dead after having to use them. We’ll push all the soldiers to their limits, and when they finally use the pills, the poison will refine their wills. After suffering enough, Kisala will use the Vital Poison Technique to secretly restore them."

Ruri nodded while the others in the group broke out in a cold sweat at the cruelty of this training. As Nafeyu explained as soon as they arrived at the sect: in the black sealed worlds, the cultivation limit was the Divine King Realm, the fourth realm of divine cultivation. (Chapter 532)

Except for Kaiyka, who was in the Heavenly Saint Realm, the third realm; all the generals and the whale were in the Divine Origin Realm, the second realm. The soldiers and squad leaders were recruited with the rule of being in the Divine Origin Realm as well. If anyone advanced without accumulating the maximum celestial runes, the whale wouldn’t be able to help, and that person’s future would be limited.

In other words, all the soldiers were fighting battles that any common cultivator would say were impossible to win. Most of their opponents were one or two realms above them. The whale and Ruri showed no mercy, throwing them into hell; they would have to learn to fight in extreme disadvantage and maximize every drop of power.

Still, it wasn’t really impossible. After all, they had Divine Daos, weapons with rune seals, and the Array to share power and communicate perfectly in battle. It would be cruel, bloody training, but infinitely effective.

From now on, they would visit all possible black sealed worlds across various galaxies. The time spent in each world would be seven days, followed by seven days of rest, before moving on to another.

Visiting various sealed worlds was common for the larger sects. The number of karmic blessings in each one was limited, so the Shadow God sect sent disciples to all they could.

According to Nebai, the Shadow God sect had fifteen heroic disciples. Two of them had already become Ancestral Empyreans, but with such competition among the sects in the sealed worlds, it was a tough achievement for the others. Thus, their soldiers would always have enemies to face, and if they didn’t attack, Ruri would find a way to provoke them.

After that, the whale left a third of the resources for the Yinblood sect. They would sell them and lavishly support their Elders and High Elders with it. The rest of the resources, the whale wouldn’t use for now.

A week later, Almin delivered a batch of terrifying pills, all with a poisonous surprise inside.

Nebai also handed the whale several recipes for talismans and basic methods. They studied the documents and then gave them to Yue, who seemed excited about a new toy. For her, studying talismans was a way to avoid training with Runula. She had a lot of fun with it and didn’t have to train—it was a win-win.

Alm and Bruno also created many runes with the Dao of the Golem God and gave them to Nebai to distribute throughout all the Larimar markets in the universe.

They would be implanted on the planets, and thus, various Golems would arise to help spread the Dao. They only inserted the introduction of the Dao, which would make the Golems head to Gloom planet to become disciples and learn the rest.

After everyone received the pills, Ruri and the others set off for another black sealed world. When they returned, the soldiers looked like the undead, covered in blood and wounds. Those who had been careless and had to use the pills to save themselves... went through extremely tough times with the poison. The others did everything to avoid the same fate.

The first materials Almin requested started to arrive thanks to them. During the soldiers’ week of rest, Almin made some Unmatched Pills with the new materials, and the whale forged several of the new ’Heaven-Defier’ runes.

The whale asked Mistie to pick disciples from the sect for the job. They got the new runes put on some weapons, and the disciples went through the pill tribulation in groups.

Everyone used the seal to absorb the rays, getting an immense amount of Qi to cultivate. In exchange, with each tribulation, countless celestial runes were stolen and accumulated through a formation created by Ruri.

With that, the whole sect advanced at a terrifying cultivation pace. Only the whale’s group wasn’t leveling up yet, focusing solely on training.

This crazy cycle of cultivation, training, and resource accumulation continued surprisingly well. After ten months, Alm and Bruno finally felt they had reached a satisfactory amount.

All the whale’s soldiers, after snagging the karmic blessings, reached the level of Ancestral Empyrean.

Satisfied with the results, Alm and Bruno decided to give all the karmic fruits they had to Amary to raise her children. Soon enough, they’d be strong enough to help the sect.

During these months, all the major sects in the universe sent veiled threat messages to Mistie and the Yinblood sect. This was because the whale’s group had simply stopped any heroic disciple from getting those blessings, taking everything for themselves.

So, the whale gathered all his soldiers in the sect’s central courtyard, sealing the place with a powerful formation. He then ordered everyone to absorb the stolen celestial runes.

A common cultivator would absorb somewhere between 300 and 900 runes. No one dared to go much over that limit for fear of facing a deadly tribulation. But now, each soldier absorbed at least three thousand runes, squad leaders got five thousand, and the generals absorbed up to ten thousand.

After that, all the infinite resources brought by Ruri, straight from the central formation of those places, were burned for Qi.

An unimaginable concentration of Qi filled the sealed area, and everyone absorbed it all for their cultivation.

A day later, absolutely all soldiers, squad leaders, and generals hit the ninth level of the Divine Origin Realm. The whale, after absorbing 60% of it all, also reached the ninth level and breathed a sigh of relief.

’This time it was simple. But in the next realm, we won’t need celestial runes anymore. We’ll have to find a way to perfectly merge with the laws of the universe. This might take a while; the time when we only needed Qi is over…’ the whale explained to the main group, who was excited about the quick evolution.

Kaiyka, on the other hand, was the only one missing. She had already broken through to the Heavenly Saint Realm earlier, so she didn’t absorb as many celestial runes as the others.

But that wasn’t a problem. Cultivators absorbed the runes to boost the power level of their inner runes or the quality of Qi in their meridians. The more runes, the better.

But Kaiyka didn’t benefit from those things. The Sword God Dao prevented her from directly using Qi or any law or technique unrelated to her sword. She relied only on two weapons: her sword and her soul. More runes wouldn’t bring her big improvements.

After the accelerated cultivation, the whale ordered everyone to rest for a week. Then, they would advance together in the tribulation, just like last time.

Meanwhile, they reflected…

’It was quick and easy to hit the realm limit, but we can’t move on, or the tribulation will wipe us out,’ Bruno muttered. Just thinking about the annihilation waiting for them sent a chill of certain death through him.

Alm scoffed coldly: ’Staying still isn’t an option. Let’s complete the quests; maybe a solution will pop up along the way. Speaking of which, where’s the quest?’

At that moment, the message on the green screen arrived.
