Dimensional Invasion: I Can Fish for All Heavens

Chapter 503 The Potential of Growlithe and Ralts, and the Imminent Reality of the Celestial King He Xi
Reiki, as an energy that can fundamentally "evolve" life forms, is undoubtedly the most perfect nourishment for the "Hogyoku".

When it first arrived in the "real world" and sensed an energy that was similar to but completely different from the "spirit particles" of the "Bleach world," the "Hogyoku" showed a hint of "caution" stemming from the unknown.

But soon, after Ye Xuan guided it to devour and transform a portion of the spiritual energy for the first time, it became "greedy" as if it had tasted an unparalleled delicacy.

From then on, almost every minute and every second, the "Hogyoku" autonomously and tirelessly absorbed, transformed, and converted the spiritual energy in the air.

It's like a seed that has fallen into super fertile soil, with an almost limitless "appetite," growing and transforming at an unprecedented speed in the real world.

As one of the most unique and powerful creations in the "Bleach world," the "Hogyoku" already had a very high starting point.

In the original setting, as long as the host has enough potential and a strong desire, it is even capable of elevating the host to a level comparable to the "Soul King".

Of course, this is just a comparison, not a transcendence.

After all, theoretically speaking, within the framework of the Shinigami world, it is almost impossible for a life form to surpass the "Soul King," because the "Soul King" himself is the cornerstone that maintains the existence of the world.

Upon descending into the real world, nourished by spiritual energy, its potential naturally continues to grow.

In Ye Xuan's view, the power contained in the "Hougyoku" is now enough to catalyze a life form with corresponding potential and raise its strength to the eighth level.

Numerically speaking, it seems to be close to, or even slightly lower than, the theoretical limit in the "Death" world.

As long as one doesn't take extreme views such as "the present world includes the sun and moon," "the Soul Society and the present world have a starry sky background," "the space between the two worlds includes the universe," or "the Soul King's lower limit is a star system, and its upper limit is beyond a single entity," defining "Soul King" as a star-level being is perfectly acceptable.

Furthermore, even Ye Xuan himself believed that "the Hōgyoku, when activated by a host with potential, can reach a level comparable to a Spirit King," which is naturally sufficient to create an eighth-order life form.

But all of this is just "theory"! There is often a huge gap between theory and reality.

In the original work, Aizen in his Honkai Impact 5 state was once considered to be the "limit" of fusion under the conditions at that time, but has Aizen's potential been completely exhausted?

not at all.

Not only that, but in the "Blood War Arc," even while imprisoned, Aizen still demonstrated an even greater increase in strength.

The original "Hogyoku" may have theoretically possessed the "possibility" of catalyzing the emergence of eighth-order life forms, but turning this "possibility" into "reality" is extremely difficult and full of uncertainties.

Now, after being nourished by countless spiritual energies in the real world for months, the "Hogyoku" has undergone a qualitative leap.

Now, as long as the host has the corresponding potential foundation, the "Hougyoku" can reliably propel them to the eighth rank.

As for why he has only reached the "eighth rank" instead of the "ninth rank" despite absorbing so much spiritual energy, it is naturally because the gap between the "eighth rank" and the "ninth rank" is too large.

The difference between a planet the size of Earth and a planet the size of Jupiter cannot be bridged by absorbing spiritual energy for a few months.
Ye Xuan's current strength under normal circumstances is only at the ninth level.

But what is his talent? A talent that spans from the multiverse to the supermultiverse!
Without needing to cultivate, the body can delve inward, allowing itself to improve rapidly at a speed that is incomprehensible to ordinary people, every minute and every second.

This is only because he obtained the "Light of Miracles" and transformed into a "Life Form of Light," which guided his talent to be explored more deeply, and that's how he reached the ninth rank.

How long has it been since he broke through to the eighth rank?
What level is the "Hogyoku"? Can it even compare to it?

However, this does not mean that the "Hogyoku" is useless to Ye Xuan now.

When Ye Xuan was comprehending abilities such as time, space, the five elements, and yin and yang, the "Hougyoku" could accelerate his comprehension process, and in some aspects, it could even directly guide Ye Xuan to skip the process and reach the final result directly.

While the "level" of these abilities that can be rapidly acquired through the "Hōgyoku" is limited by the current level of the "Hōgyoku," the improvement in "efficiency" is real.

It allows Ye Xuan to master more different kinds of rule abilities within the same amount of time.

As for a higher level of advancement, it is the process by which Ye Xuan manifests the "Emperor's Armor" and comprehends it from the "perspective of the Heavenly Dao".

In addition, the "Hogyoku" is useful to Ye Xuan in raising Growlithe and Ralts.

The potential of Pokémon is undeniable; they are born with immense power and limitless possibilities.

However, Ye Xuan is not good at training Pokémon.

This is when the value of the "Hōgyoku" becomes apparent.

The so-called training, no matter how many techniques are used, is nothing more than developing the Pokémon's "potential" to the limit, and the "Hogyoku" is best at doing this.

It can directly affect the "Desire" of Growlithe and Ralts, bringing their talents to their full potential.

Ye Xuan also has no shortage of the resources needed for such rapid growth.

Even the fruits cultivated by Demeter contain immense spiritual energy; and he also manifested the instrument for creating "energy cubes".

As for meat, while Ralts doesn't need it, Growlithe loves it. The flesh and blood of tier 3 mutated creatures might be scarce elsewhere, but Ye Xuan has no shortage of it.

Under such conditions, one can guarantee the improvement of their own strength even without training.

However, while a very small number of Pokémon are resistant to training and battling, the vast majority are enthusiastic about battling.

Even if Ye Xuan didn't ask them to do that, they would still spend some time training themselves.

Ye Xuan turned his gaze to one side of the courtyard.

There, Growlithe were practicing biting and ramming against a thick, specially made rubber post; their movements were swift, and each pounce was full of power.

After practicing by bumping the rubber stake until it wobbles slightly, it will stop and practice spraying and controlling the flames repeatedly towards a target not far away, trying to make the flames more obedient and more powerful.

Sweat soaked its orange fur, but its eyes remained focused. After panting with its tongue lolling out, it would immediately throw itself into the next practice session.

Not far away, Ralts hovered quietly in the air, about a foot off the ground.

In front of it were more than a dozen rings of different sizes and weights; it was concentrating its mind, trying to use its mental power to control these rings at the same time, making them stably shuttle and intersect along different trajectories and speeds, thus training its control over mental power.

Occasionally, a ring will fall out of control, and it will make a "Laru" sound. After resting for a moment, it will concentrate again and start again.

In fact, judging from the energy accumulated in their bodies, both Growlithe and Ralts have reached the standard for their respective evolution, but they have tacitly maintained their current forms and have not been in a hurry to take that step.

It wasn't that Ye Xuan asked them to do this, but rather that they simply felt that evolving later would be more beneficial for them.

However, it may also be related to the little Qilin.

Ye Xuan turned his gaze to another part of the courtyard, where the little Qilin was sleeping soundly in the sunlight, its belly rising and falling with its breath.

Compared to the hard-working Growlithe and Ralts, Xiao Qilin is not interested in "becoming stronger" and does not feel any urgency because of their hard training. He has an incredibly good attitude.

Even so, the spiritual energy in the air continued to merge into its body at a visible speed, and its own strength was increasing at a steady and natural pace.

This is not difficult to understand.

As a divine beast born of nature, growth and becoming stronger are almost instincts etched deep in its blood.

Moreover, it has a high affinity for spiritual energy. Even without actively absorbing it, the body will automatically absorb and refine the spiritual energy to strengthen itself.

The so-called "training" is just to "slightly" speed up its natural growth.

Moreover, compared to the long lifespan of a small Qilin, it is currently just a "cub".

As "young cubs," there's naturally no need for training.

Growlithe and Ralts chose to postpone their evolution, perhaps not only to solidify their foundation, but also because they didn't want the little Qilin to feel unfamiliar with them due to the change in form.

Well, maybe.

Ye Xuan withdrew his gaze and looked at Angel Yan. As if remembering something, he said casually:
"He Xi will arrive in reality in three days. Remember to be prepared."

"???"

Angel Yan's relaxed expression froze instantly, replaced by astonishment and confusion. She even blinked subconsciously, wondering if she had misheard.

No, wasn't the previous topic still about the updates to the "Evolution Trusters" and "Superhuman Rankings" and their growth?
How did it suddenly happen to Tianji Wang without any warning?
And it's coming to reality? Only three days left? Is it really that sudden?!

She probably didn't travel through time, right?
"Now that the Heavenly King is coming, can you give me temporary communication now?"

"I'll talk to King Tianji again, just in case it's too sudden and she hasn't brought everything she needed."

After a brief moment of confusion, reason immediately prevailed.

Angel Yan blinked as she looked at Ye Xuan.

Preparation? What does she need to prepare?
The landing point had already been chosen: a planet outside the solar system.

That's about it.

She originally wanted to prepare some resources in advance, but Ye Xuan had already asked her to communicate with Queen Keisha and the Heavenly King, and clearly stated that the "dimensional life" that would descend upon the next "Super God World" was the Heavenly King. So what was there left for her to prepare?
How many resources could she and Zhixin possibly gather? Of course, it would be much faster for Tianji King to prepare directly.

Should we bring enough Dark Silver raw materials? Should we also prepare a Celestial Computer?
There are also resources needed to upgrade the divine body.
