"This kid isn't planning to blow himself up, is he? No way, I need to move away."

The Enlightenment Tree was terrified and immediately moved its steps to hide far away.

Lin Yifan's current appearance was too terrifying, like a balloon about to explode, ready to burst at any moment.

Not only did it feel this way, but even Lin Yifan himself felt the same; he had never experienced such an overwhelming feeling of expansion, it was almost suffocating to the point of wanting to die.

"Damn it! Can you break through the bottleneck faster?" Lin Yifan cursed in his heart, really wanting to throw the black bead out of his body.

It was unclear if the black bead was scared by him, but it suddenly emitted a thunderous force of the Divinity Transformation Realm, sweeping all directions.

As the power was released, Lin Yifan's body and heart deflated like a punctured balloon, quickly returning to their original state.

"Phew!"

"Damn! That scared the hell out of me."

Sighing in relief, Lin Yifan said with lingering fear.

Now that he had broken through to the Divinity Transformation Realm, he possessed more formidable power than before, and he felt rejuvenated.

"This is the power of the Divinity Transformation Realm, truly extraordinary."

Lin Yifan clenched his fist, feeling the immense power within his body, his heart filled with pride.

Now, even if someone at the early stage of the Divine Transformation Second Realm appeared before him, he wouldn't be afraid.

On the other hand, the Enlightenment Tree was already shocked to the extreme because Lin Yifan had truly ascended from the Breaking Mortal Realm to the Divinity Transformation Realm without needing to comprehend any profound mysteries of the Great Dao.

"Is this kid a freak? How can he have such an ability?" It was really hard to understand and believe.

"Successful progression! Time to get out."

Clapping his hands and feet, Lin Yifan stepped out of the Spirit Stone Chamber with a face full of delight, leaving the stunned Enlightenment Tree inside.

After a long while, the Enlightenment Tree, coming back to its senses, reminded him from behind: "Hey! Kid! Keep your word! Don't renege!"

"Don't worry, as long as you help me cultivate, I will keep my promise and let you out."

Replying, Lin Yifan then swiftly left the Immortal's Cave Mansion.

Inside the cave mansion, the Enlightenment Tree nodded and muttered to itself: "At least you have a bit of a conscience."

All it wanted was freedom; as long as Lin Yifan could give it freedom, it would do everything to help Lin Yifan.

It took Lin Yifan a little over an hour to ascend from the peak of the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm to the early stage of the Divine Transformation First Realm, which was much faster than those cultivators who struggled for several years, even decades.

Zhou Jiajia and Xiao Fang, who were searching online for information about the Shadow Organization for Lin Yifan, were startled by Lin Yifan's sudden appearance.

They looked at Lin Yifan in disbelief and asked, "Yifan? Have you finished cultivating?"

"Finished cultivating," Lin Yifan replied.

Just now he had even taken a bath and changed clothes in his room, or else he would have appeared before Zhou Jiajia and Xiao Fang even faster.

"No way! You've ascended realms so quickly? This is a leap from one great realm to another; generally, it takes insight into the Great Dao, and ordinary people need one or two months, even one or two years. How could you possibly ascend so quickly? Even if you're a genius, it shouldn't be this fast, right?" Xiao Fang was incredibly surprised, just like the Enlightenment Tree earlier.

All of this was simply because Lin Yifan was too extraordinary, practically a freak in the eyes of humans, making people feel he wasn't from the same category of human beings.

Although Zhou Jiajia didn't understand cultivation matters, Lin Yifan's exceedingly short time indeed left her deeply shocked.

Because Brother Yi Chen was a living example.

Brother Yi Chen took dozens of days to ascend a minor realm, yet Lin Yifan ascended a great realm in just over an hour, highlighting the stark contrast between the two.

Without comparison, it wouldn't be clear how strong or abnormal Lin Yifan truly was.

"Fangfang, I'm not a genius, I'm a prodigy. Following me, you'll never lose out." Lin Yifan replied with pride.

This feeling was truly exhilarating, a sense of looking down on all life.

"Yifan, I still don't believe it; how about you show me a few moves?" Xiao Fang suggested.

"No problem!"

Lin Yifan readily agreed to Xiao Fang's request without the slightest hesitation.

He demonstrated the Vajra Fist, showcasing several moves out of thin air.

Each move unleashed a burst of power, and the energy felt overwhelming.

Feeling the strong aura coming her way, Xiao Fang finally believed Lin Yifan's earlier words.

Lin Yifan had truly ascended to the early stage of the Divine Transformation First Realm, a speed truly unprecedented and likely never to be surpassed.

Being the girlfriend of such an incredible man, she felt both relieved and proud.

"Yifan, you're amazing, I love you to death!"

Unable to contain her excitement, Xiao Fang rushed over to give Lin Yifan a kiss.

Ordinary people don't understand the hobbies of cultivators; cultivators only love and worship power. That's why Xiao Fang couldn't suppress her budding emotions and rushed to kiss Lin Yifan.

This scenario was like a dedicated fan seeing their idol and couldn't help but break through the guard's defense to hug and kiss the idol.

So why did Xiao Fang feel this way? It was because Lin Yifan's astonishing cultivation speed was like his idol's handsome face, attracting countless worshiping female cultivators to chase after him relentlessly.

Zhou Jiajia looked at this scene in a daze, not understanding why Xiao Fang was so excited.

Nevertheless, Lin Yifan ascended in realms, and she should also congratulate Lin Yifan; so she ran over, hugged, and kissed him too.

Lin Yifan didn't expect these two young ladies to be so excited, but their happiness was his pride; he thoroughly enjoyed this feeling of being adored.

After the excitement, it was time to get back to the main topic.

There wasn't much online information about the Shadow Organization, so Xiao Fang and Zhou Jiajia had little to say. However, there was a lot of information about the Empire of Dongying.

The Empire of Dongying had always been at odds with the Shenzhou Country, and decades ago, they attempted to invade Shenzhou Country but were beaten back miserably.

The Empire of Dongying is an island nation, surrounded by the sea, and geographically quite isolated.

But the Dongying people aren't content with being lonely; they stir up trouble everywhere, bully the weak, and plunder various resources to strengthen themselves.

Shenzhou Country wouldn't stand for it, and so they sent troops to counter their acts of aggression.

Gradually, the animosity between the two countries deepened, reaching a point where conflict seemed inevitable.

So, in order to annex Shenzhou Country, the Empire of Dongying collaborated with the Shadow Organization, using underhanded tactics to severely damage Shenzhou Country.

Given a little more time, they would mobilize their entire military might to attack Shenzhou Country once again.

Of course, these are just the suppositions of the people in Shenzhou Country.

Ever since they learned that it was the Empire of Dongying's cultivation organization behind the actions, various conspiracy theories have emerged.
