The events of the trials and the heavenly sphere had induced a state of utter paralysis on the Oneuli members and the Yeomna crew. This state of theirs wasn’t intentional or unintentional. Instead, it was produced by the event itself.

They all lost the ability to move, think, feel, or speak as they soundlessly and nearly lifelessly looked at the trials before them with widened eyes. They were watching the heavens in its most purest form, and the benefits were astonishing.

Many who witnessed the storms, especially those with talent, had already made advancements in their comprehension of their respective laws. This event increased their comprehension speed to near inhuman levels when the golden sphere appeared — a truly fortuitous encounter.

The vast majority of them were like this...but not Yi Seo-Jun. The Oneuli Empire’s Crown Prince held a unique object in his mind that prevented his mind from being influenced. Outside of sheer shock that made him speechless, he ultimately kept his faculties.

This freedom was because his mind was already thoroughly tainted, incapable of comprehending the heavens. Despite this, he was still the Crown Prince! This goes to show that he had an astonishing talent to rely on for his success.

Yi Seo-Jun glanced around. The surrounding people had gone entirely silent as if their souls were drawn elsewhere. He looked towards Yan Zaizen’s physical form. The body of Yan Zaizen was like an empty husk that floated in mid-air with its eyes closed shut.

A flicker of excitement surged wildly within his pupils. He felt his time had finally come. A body without a soul!

If it weren’t for his unwillingness to let the world know, he would be madly laughing. He glanced at Yan Zaizen’s soul form. It was currently emitting a type of vicious killing intent and were preoccupied with fighting an invisible existence.

He felt a surge of emotions rise in his heart.

"When I was born, I was the child of a lowly concubine. I was determined to have the worst talent out of all my siblings and even the previous three generations of the Royal Family at the age of three."

He started to recall his life; a trace of decisiveness entered his eyes as he looked at the tainted black orb in his hand. It glimmered with a dirty, black light. When it came into contact with the air, it would seem as if the air contained the highest form of pollution possible. A single whiff could kill a God, but he remained unaffected despite being in direct contact.

"When I was ten, I was plotted against by my siblings. They threw me to the wilderness, wanting me to die and blame it on my own foolishness. I survived! All because of this object!"

He gripped the black orb tightly, and his hand trembled.

"I was chased by a Yaoguai far stronger than me. It played with me. I was clay in its hands; it could knead me however it wished. I tumbled as it pounced for the kill, its fun having been had, my life about to end, and I found it. Or better yet, it found me! This orb shined with a light...this light was my tunnel of survival!"

"With it, the Yaoguai fled. It, however, touched my body and with this, I could no longer sense the heavens. However, my talent in cultivating other paths, most notably, the Origin Path reached an absolute peak! From that day forth, I vowed never to be weak, to never be clay in another’s hands!"

"However...the Origin Path had its limit! It is a false path! I was incapable of breaking through my bottleneck, and my grand fate slowly started to decelerate. I couldn’t accept this, and so...I...tried to cultivate the heavens! Alas, I couldn’t. I could not! With my tainted mind and body, I could only cultivate my Origin! Even my soul was affected..."

"However, I couldn’t give up! How could I?! With my connections, I talked to a Celestial Seer, begged for a way out and his answer? To wait. To wait for ’it’ to come. And Ah-ha, it indeed came! Fate, the heavens, and the gods had not given up on me!"

"A Non-Entity! This orb that is the bane of them were also my salvation. Now, I have a path. I shall not lose this chance! My Path to the peak will be unhindered!!" The Oneuli Empire’s Crown Prince, Yi Seo-Jun, internalized his life as he felt a turning point finally reach.

This tainted orb had plagued him, but it had changed his destiny! Now, it gave him the opportunity to obtain a Non-Entity’s body! With that, his talent in the Body Refining and Law Comprehension would be ranked first within the entire Universe! He would only have equals, no betters! With his cultivation into the Origin Path to help bolster this, he would reach the absolute peak in one step!

With a cruel, cold smile, he was quick like lightning. He threw the orb towards Yan Zaizen’s soul form as he broke away from the inspired masses and dashed towards Yan Zaizen’s uninhabited body.

He didn’t care about how the orb would interact with Yan Zaizen’s soul.

As he approached the body, he abandoned his own body which increased his speed to its absolute limits! He was like a beam of emerald light traveling through space. "My fate will be changed!"

10,000 meters.

1,000 meters.

100 meters!

10 METERS!!

As he reached that three-meter mark, a flash of grey appeared before him. This figure was shapely and feminine but also shrouded by an odd feeling of past, present, and future all at once. It gave one a sense of staring at an immortal ghost wading through time.

It was the mysterious grey-robed woman!

"You can scram." Her words were calm as she lifted her right hand lightly and pushed her palm outwards towards this beam of emerald light.

When Yi Seo-Jun saw this, his soul form’s eyes flickered with a dangerous light. Without hesitation, he opened his mouth in this dangerous close-quarters situation. From his mouth, he spat out a light grey and dark grey object. This object was like a miniature sun.

When the grey-robed woman saw this, her eyes widened with shock as she instantly vanished. She appeared in her original location a far distance away, as if she had just went back in time. Her soft, white hands were drenched in sweat. Even her breathing was labored.

"To think he has such an object filled with Original Might! Shit!!" She spat out vulgarities. Then, she looked towards Yan Zaizen’s crumbling soul form, and she trembled like she was having a seizure. A cracked and crazed voice resounded from her that echoed for millions of miles, "NO!!!"

Yi Seo-Jun had no time to think about this as he directed the orb to fire just past Yan Zaizen’s physical body. It was like a missed bullet, and it kept going. Before he could cross the three-meter distance, it had already vanished over the horizon! Its speed was out of this world!

He entered Yan Zaizen’s body immediately. It was as easy as occupying an uninhabited body should be. There was no rejection and only acceptance.

Then, ’Yan Zaizen’ opened his eyes. An emerald light emerged from within that flickered incessantly. A cold smile surfaced on his handsome face, giving him a very malicious expression.

"Perfect!" ’Yan Zaizen’ exclaimed, but it was odd-sounding, like two voices competing for familiarity. Stretching this body, ’Yan Zaizen’ looked towards the last vestiges of Yan Zaizen’s crumbling soul form.

He laughed. He couldn’t help it. He had just changed his fate so easily!

"Oh?" He noticed a Heavenly Shrine with eight-floors completed and a ninth in the works. He felt ecstatic and surprised. This Heavenly Shrine had some oddities within.

"I will enjoy exploring this body!" He was about to depart when a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Ah, so it was you."
