Yasenia rubbed the back of her head and looked at Kali with large blinking eyes. "Why did you smack me, Honey?" After looking around, she realized that everyone was giving her bewildered looks. "Hm? What happened? Is there something wrong?"

Looking at herself, she saw a few superficial burns on her body that were already healing and peeling off, revealing new, perfectly healthy skin. "Oh. And here I thought I felt an electrifying sensation because I managed to complete what I wanted."

Kali's lips twitched several times, and she almost smacked her again. Sighing, she asked again, her gaze and hands roaming Yasenia's healing body just in case there were any serious injuries. "So, love, why on Heaven's name did you get smitten this time around!? We are in a World with a dying Heaven! Unless it is a realm breakthrough, Heaven will not waste their energy on anyone."

Being clueless about what happened like everybody else, the dragoness spoke, not bothered at all about Kali's groping session. "Wait, Honey. I am as confused as you are. Let me look around my body and see if there have been any changes, okay? All I know is that I squeezed my soul and made it denser, nothing more."

Kali nodded and stepped back. Then, Yasenia sat down cross-legged on the spot, closing her eyes and looking into herself. Her spiritual sense dove into her body, trying to spot any changes. She didn't need to look far into her own body, as several changes had occurred when she looked at herself.

First, her soul was not overflowing all over the place like before. Instead, it was tightly contained inside a surface with a very faint sheen that covered her silhouette. Looking at herself with her own spiritual sense made her look as if she were gently glowing.

The second change she noticed immediately was her control over her soul. It had made a qualitative leap. As Yasenia looked around herself, she could clearly feel an illusory flow that wasn't there before or, more precisely, a flow that she couldn't see in the past. With it, controlling the soul was much smoother than the brutish way she used before.

Thirdly, and the more glaring change, she said that the size of her soul had shrunk several times over. Yet even the general size was smaller. Once she peeked into her own soul, the world expanded like never before. 'Woah. My soul is at least five times larger than before while also being denser... the overall strength has skyrocketed. What happened? Are Transcendent Ranked pills that powerful?'

Yasenia knew that there were more changes than the ones she could superficially see. Yet, she would need a long period of meditation to spot all of them. That was a luxury that she currently could not afford. After all, she had a Transcendence Realm cultivator waiting for her.

Still, she didn't rush and explained everything she had seen to Kali, Valeria, and the maids. After explaining what she had sensed, Valeria laughed, feeling incredulous. "You actually managed to start the Soul Cultivation Path without the assistance of a Cultivation Technique. That's honestly ridiculous. Even if your breakthrough was helped by a very particular mix of very particular events, it is an achievement that not even geniuses of the high-level worlds would be able to accomplish."

Yasenia hummed. "Well, even if I have managed to enter, I have no clue what to do or how to advance. Still, it has helped me a lot just to enter into the first level. Quite different from Body Cultivation, which it took a few realms to become noticeable."

Valeria smiled amusedly. "Perhaps you didn't notice, but your martial comprehension speed also skyrocketed after you entered the first realm of Body Cultivation. Your body control increased significantly as well. If not, even during the enlightenment, fighting Tatyana, Mirrory, and me to a standstill during your Martial Art creation would've been impossible."
