Chapter 64: 64. Breakthrough
\'This talent is severely limiting the things I could do.\' Kai complained.
He stayed inside the tree for another six months and finally achieved the peak of the True Sense realm.
\'Phew! I finally achieved the peak. I definitely wouldn\'t break into the divine realm without finding a good treasure that can help me create a variant physique.\' Kai thought firmly.
\'Alteast the benefits of breaking through the peak are obvious\'
Kai can use his Cosmic Awareness ability to obtain information from the past three months using the objects.
His control over his Will Power subtly increased. The reason he took so long to break through was because of mental fatigue.
The Will or thought is produced by the brain, so he needs to rest in between to relieve his fatigue.
\'Now, it\'s time to break through.\'
To break through to the Will Manipulation realm, Kai needs to do three things: mental resonance, consciousness expansion, and subconscious integration.
Mental Resonance: Kai must learn to resonate with the natural energies around him, synchronizing his thoughts with the world\'s rhythm to manipulate reality.
Consciousness Expansion: Kai expands his consciousness to sense and manipulate multiple elements simultaneously, leading to a greater mastery over his environment.
Subconscious Integration: He integrates his cultivation into his subconscious, allowing for instinctual use of his abilities, even in sleep or unconscious states.
After doing all three processes, Kai can break through the Will Manipulation realm.
\'It is a long process, but the benefits are good.\'
Kai sat in the meditative position and started resonating his Will Power with the surrounding elements.
He tried a lot of different ways, but Kai wasn\'t able to resonate with the surrounding elements.
\'Maybe I should resonate without attaching my Will Power.\' Kai thought about the problem.
He added his Will Power to the surrounding elements in his previous tries, but after he tried without adding his Will Power, Kai was finally able to resonate with them.
\'So, Will Power can also be used in such a way.\'
Kai found a new way of using Will Power after resonating with the elements. He added his Will Power to almost all of his moves, but that isn\'t safe since a powerful cultivator can sense whenever Kai uses them.
But if he doesn\'t use the Will Power, a powerful cultivator won\'t be able to sense it. During resonance, Kai used his Will Power from inside his body.
He tends to exert his Will Power outside of his body every time he uses it, and it can be sensed by a powerful cultivator.
But in the resonance, Kai resonates with the outside elements and uses them without actually bringing them outside, but the Will Power drains in the process, so he uses the energy.
This method cannot be used for everything, it can only be used for manipulating elements and controlling objects.
\'I should practice this method seriously, since it helps me hide from outsiders.\'
Kai started practicing his resonance, and he needs to understand nature (the environment) and his Will Power.
After practicing for a long time, Kai finally achieved a good grasp of resonance and started his consciousness expansion.
The consciousness determines the range that he can manipulate using Will Power, so it is an important process.
Kai simply needs to spread his Will Power to expand his consciousness. It was the hardest part of breaking through the Will Manipulation realm, as it requires a long time.
Kai spread his Will Power and started meditating. He also used his parallel-thinking ability to improve his control over Will Power.
The Will Power only spread 30 meters around him and didn\'t expand. It slowly began expanding as time passed.
Kai sat in the meditative position for a long time and even forgot the passage of time, but his consciousness expanded to a hundred and eleven meters.
\'It\'s the limit I can reach in this realm,\' Kai thought after successfully breaking the limit.
He faced a bottleneck in expanding his consciousness after reaching ninety-nine meters. After he broke through the bottleneck, it expanded to one hundred and eleven meters.
Kai\'s consciousness will expand after he breaks through, and it will expand depending on his length in the True Sense realm.
The next process is subconscious integration. He needs to resonate with the element subconsciously, and after that, he can break through Will Manipulation realm.
This process isn\'t necessary for his breakthrough, but Kai decided to do it. Resonance with the elements takes some time, but he did it subconsciously so he wouldn\'t waste any time on it.
After he broke through to the Will Manipulation realm, it would become even harder to subconsciously control the elements, so he decided to do so in the True Sense realm.
Kai took a rest before his breakthrough; he spends a lot of time in cultivation and needs to rest his spirit.
Kai slept inside the tree and didn\'t go outside to check; he still had some fear about that dragon and the potential danger outside.
\'It seems a combination of rest and practice is the best.\' Kai thought after he woke.
Kai needs to visualize his Will Power and integrate it with his subconscious mind.
He needs to make his subconscious mind believe that the Will Power isn\'t harmful and let it take control through visualization.
Kai began to visualize and started to hypnotize his subconscious mind. After a long time, he eventually completed this process as well.
\'Phew! This process isn\'t hard\' Kai thought in relief.
Kai started to get bored after staying inside the same room, even though he didn\'t feel any negative emotions since he completed the illusion trial, staying inside a room for a long time is boring.
\'It\'s time to break through. I can finally investigate this place.\' Kai thought happily.
Without any delay, he started meditation to break into the Will Manipulation realm.
