Chapter 107: Ascending to the Heaven (1)

In the wake of Zenith Heaven Emperor's entrance into the Tribulation World, a monumental transformation began to unfold. He embarked on the arduous process of ascension, aiming to claim the position of the Heavenly Way. Such an endeavor was believed to be impossible, as the title of Heavenly Way was traditionally obtained through the grueling Vying of the Heavenly Way. However, the unique combination of the Heavenly Way Authority, granted by his father, and his profound mastery of the Way of Eternal Life's Path of the Mysteries and Path of Anarchy presented a rare opportunity.

As news of Zenith Heaven Emperor's audacious attempt to become the Heavenly Way spread throughout the world, reactions were varied and intense. The established order was disrupted, and All Heaven and Myriad Realms were thrown into a state of outrage and disbelief.

How could someone dare to claim the title of Heavenly Way without going through the traditional Vying of the Heavenly Way? The audacity of Zenith Heaven Emperor sent shockwaves through the hearts of cultivators far and wide. Some were filled with indignation, while others questioned the legitimacy of such an ascension.

Amidst the uproar, whispers of dissent and outrage filled the air. Cultivators from various factions debated the implications of Zenith Heaven Emperor's actions. Some were eager to challenge him, seeking to defend 'the honor and sanctity of the Heavenly Way'. However, they were met with frustration and disappointment as they realized they were unable to attack him within the confines of the Tribulation World.

"I can't believe he's trying to become the Heavenly Way without going through the Vying! Can no one stop him! Where are all the Eternal Life Beings?!" exclaimed a cultivator, his voice filled with righteous indignation.

"You're right! He's bypassing the rules of the Heavenly Way that have been in place since the beginning of time. This cannot be allowed!" another cultivator responded, his fists clenched in anger.

"But what can we do? He's protected by the Tribulation World. We can't breach its defenses," a third cultivator murmured, a sense of helplessness evident in their voice.

As the tension escalated, cultivators began to strategize, seeking a way to stop Zenith Heaven Emperor's audacious plan. They formed alliances, pooling their knowledge and power to find a weakness in his approach.

However, Zenith Heaven Emperor remained undeterred. Inside the Tribulation World, he continued his ascension process, utilizing the combined power of the Heavenly Way Authority and his Way of Eternal Life's Path of the Mysteries and Path of Anarchy. The world outside seethed with resentment, but their anger could not penetrate the protective barrier of the Tribulation World.

When Soft Feather spotted Zenith Heaven Emperor amidst the Tribulation World, her heart leaped with joy. Ignoring the responsibility that awaited her in front of All Heavens and Myriad Realms, she sprinted towards him, driven by her overwhelming affection. The onlookers could hardly believe their eyes as Soft Feather threw herself into Zenith Heaven Emperor's arms, embracing him tightly.

As Soft Feather clung to Zenith Heaven Emperor, rubbing her breasts against him and murmuring his name, the onlookers' rage reached a boiling point. They couldn't believe their eyes, witnessing such a display of affection in front of All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

"What is she doing? Has she lost her mind?" one cultivator exclaimed, their voice filled with incredulity.

"I thought she was going to attack him to stop him from becoming Heavenly Way! But this is outrageous!" another cultivator fumed, their eyes blazing with indignation.

The crowd erupted in a chorus of disapproving murmurs. The sight of Soft Feather clinging to Zenith Heaven Emperor triggered a surge of resentment within them.

All of a sudden Soft Feather couldn't help but feel a surge of energy coursing through her veins. Being in such close proximity to a person who was ascending to the position of Heavenly Way granted her a unique advantage over the others. It was as if a door of enlightenment had opened before her, revealing profound insights and hidden mysteries.

In that moment, Soft Feather, a mere Sixth Stage True Monarch, experienced a remarkable transformation. The power of the Way of Eternal Life, normally out of reach for someone of her cultivation level, condensed within her being. She became enveloped in a radiant aura as the essence of the Way of Eternal Life coursed through her meridians.

Her mind expanded, transcending the limits of her previous understanding. She grasped the intricate nature of the Way of Eternal Life with astonishing clarity. It was a revelation, a profound revelation that she could not ignore.

Soft Feather named it the Way of the Zenith Heaven Empress, a path that encapsulated who she truly was. It merged her love for the extreme, and her relentless obsession with her beloved Zenith Heaven Emperor. It was a manifestation of her unique essence, a way that only she could walk.

In truth, Soft Feather's obsessive love for Zenith Heaven Emperor could also be described as something extreme. It was a deep and passionate affection that consumed her every thought and action. It could be said, that she had fallen into the pit of her own obsession. Normally she likes to drag everyone into anything she enjoys, forcing them to do her extreme things, but this time she became a victim of her own nature, dragging herself deep into the abyss of love.

As Soft Feather embraced Zenith Heaven Emperor, feeling the surge of energy from her newly condensed Way of the Zenith Heaven Empress, she couldn't contain her excitement and joy. This was the moment she had been yearning for, the reunion with her beloved. But as she looked into his eyes, she noticed a sudden change. Zenith Heaven Emperor vanished before her very eyes.

A wave of shock and confusion washed over Soft Feather. She couldn't comprehend what had just happened. Had he completed the initial step of his ascension? The realization struck her, and a mixture of emotions flooded her heart. The world around her became a blur as tears welled up in her eyes. She had finally been reunited with her beloved, only for him to disappear in an instant.

The onlookers, who had been witnessing the spectacle, were equally perplexed and bewildered by Zenith Heaven Emperor's sudden vanishing act. Whispers filled the air as cultivators tried to make sense of the unprecedented turn of events.

"Did he... Did he just succeed in ascending to the Heavenly Way?"

"This is unbelievable! Never did we think he would actually achieve it!"

"What does this mean for the world? Do All Heavens and Myriad Realms have a new owner?"

While the world was in an uproar, Soft Feather stood frozen, tears streaming down her face. Her heart consumed by her obsession, was torn between conflicting emotions. She had always longed for Zenith Heaven Emperor's success, to see him ascend to the pinnacle of cultivation. But now, as her deepest desire seemed within reach, it slipped away, leaving her feeling empty.

"Why... Why did he have to vanish? I wanted to celebrate this moment with him," Soft Feather murmured to herself, her voice filled with sorrow.

"We didn't even have the moment to greet each other! He... He just appeared and disappeared in the next second!" she continued.
