1027 The Swallowing Zone's Secret

w.a.n.g Wei headed directly to the Swallowing Zone. He did not hesitate to enter since he had already made all the necessary preparations. Since he did not hide his presence, he sensed the sights looking in his direction but did not care. The people of the world have acquiesced to the fact it was his responsibility to deal with these Forbidden Lands, and thus, the rewards or benefits also belonged to him.

As soon as he entered, he sensed the terrifying swallowing or devouring power that wanted to swallow his flesh, blood, soul, and even his Grand Dao Source. He looked around and saw a world of endless darkness with scattered light spots resembling far-away stars in the night sky.

w.a.n.g Wei observed his surroundings and swiftly noticed two things: Firstly, the swallowing power in this place was so intense that a normal Eternal Emperor would have their senses affected. However, that was the extent of this place's power.

Secondly, this place had many seals to prevent the devouring power from reaching the Myriad Emperor World. Based on his observation, some of these seals were ancient, probably dating back to the Null Era, if not before.

He sensed something and headed in that direction. The closer he was to what he sensed, the more intense the power of devouring. However, by the time he reached the center, the devouring power was about 25 to 30% Grand Dao Source, and w.a.n.g Wei knew why.

w.a.n.g Wei detected a potent seal that would make him sweat even at his peak. In other words, this seal was enough to deal with him unless he used the Illusory Pill Sutra.

At the very center was a tree made of light, and it appeared to be growing an emaciated green apple. w.a.n.g Wei looked at it but did not immediately recognize it, so he directly divined the answer. However, he encountered some resistance.

'This thing's essence is higher than mine?' he thought with s.h.i.+ning eyes before activating all his powers. A vision of the River of Fate manifested above him, along with the appearance of his ten Fate Palaces.

"The Genesis Fruit?" he muttered. According to his calculations, this fruit was an Empyrean Spirit Herb that could morph into most resources of the same tier.

"Interesting ability," he thought, thinking how to use it. He could turn it into something that helps him open the Gate of Power. A second viable option would be to use it to wash away his karma. w.a.n.g Wei had noticed that his memories from Primordial Chaos after the events on Earth contained immense karma, hence why he has not directly removed his seal and accessed his memories. Instead, he chose to deal with the karma before proceeding slowly.

His Karma Unbound Physique has been crucial in the process, but the appropriate Empyrean Spiritual Herb would be very beneficial.

"No, the best way to use this thing is the major bottleneck between the Great Emperor and Empyrean Realm."

From what his ancestor - Yan Hai - said, even talented individuals like her and Wu Hong must spend a significant amount of time and effort trying to get through. He will face the same situation, especially if he wants to become an Everlasting Empyrean.

He could use merit to deal with the bottleneck, but that would take too much; it would be better to use the merit to continue to cultivate in the Empyrean Realm. His chances of reaching more than 70% of the Grand Dao Source would increase if he did not have to do so.

'If I want to enter the Empyrean Realm before ascending, I cannot waste much time in this bottleneck. So, the best use of this fruit is in that direction. However, there is still a major issue-how to ripen it.'

Although it took some effort, w.a.n.g Wei was able to divine this tree's origin and history successfully. During the Innate-Acquired War, True Heavenly Dao was way more lenient regarding certain things or regulations; in other words, certain things that would never be tolerated today would be granted a pa.s.s during that period.

Both the acquired and innate lives in the upper dimension took advantage of this opportunity and smuggled certain things into the lower dimension. w.a.n.g Wei even guessed this was how Old Man Nether had successfully sneaked into the lower dimension.

The fruit was sent for one purpose-a terrible weapon of war. The lower dimension cannot cultivate such a powerful spiritual herb. As such, after being planted, it would swallow any world it was planted in to use as nutrients. And if not controlled properly, it would devour the entire lower dimension.

The Myriad Emperor World was one of the three places of origin of the Innate-Acquired War. So, the Innate Demon G.o.ds wanted it destroyed to demoralize the other side. Luckily, the human race learned of this news and thwarted this plan before sealing the fruit.

Of course, as expected of humans, the tree brought problems to them. Many people wanted to eliminate such a dangerous thing immediately, while others believed they should use it instead. Although it was virtually impossible to cultivate the fruit to completion, taking an incomplete, imperfect, or unripened fruit would still significantly improve anyone.

The discourse over this fruit reached the point that humans had to postpone making a decision; this was the best way to prevent possible division amongst the human or Acquired Lives. Then, most of the surviving Great Emperors and Immortals were forcefully exiled to the upper dimension before they could decide.

"Years later, many Emperors visited this place, including Qiyuan. However, after realizing it was impossible to ripen, he left his own seal and left this fortunate encounter for future generations. The Human Emperor came here and also left after placing a seal. w.a.n.g Wei guessed he might have a plan to get his hands on it later. Otherwise, dealing with the fruit was a great way to repay the karma he owed to the human race.

In his divination, w.a.n.g Wei saw the Danyuan Emperor come to this place and did not touch the fruit because of how rare such a spiritual herb was, Instead, he nourished it with his unique Good Fortune Flame, making it slightly easier to cultivate than usual.

The Absolute Beginning Emperor and Wu Hong did not come here; they probably did not have the time. Emperor Kong also visited this place but only left a seal - nothing more, nothing else. His mindset was probably similar to others: seal it to prevent trouble and leave it this possible fortunate encounter for future capable people. w.a.n.g Wei was not too sure about this conclusion as his a.n.a.lysis indicates Emperor Kong was the kind of person to remove this possible danger from the world.

So, either the latter was too weak to do so, or something else was at play. His divination was fuzzy on this area, most likely because it involved a living Everlasting Empyrean.

The last True Eternal to come to this place was the Heaven Devouring Emperor, and this fruit is the source of his madness and why he wanted to swallow the world. His thinking was probably to sacrifice most of the world or most of its World Source to the fruit and eat it unripe. Luckily, he failed, but his actions did have some effects on the fruit.

Of course, these Eternals were not the only ones who visited this place. Many Pseudo- Eternals and a few Immortal Sovereigns also came and acted the same way: seal or try to use it for their own use.

w.a.n.g Wei took a moment to plan how to cultivate this thing. He pointed his finger around to open a pa.s.sage to the Source Qi s.p.a.ce, releasing an immense amount of Qi. Keeping these portals open took a lot of power as the Source Qi s.p.a.ce acted as a living ent.i.ty and would actively close them.

He did not use his Qi Flower Ability as he felt the energy these things could provide was insufficient for the fruit, so he used more forceful means. The next step was to install two formations: a Qi Gathering Array and a Time Formation.

Once he finished, he saw the speed at which this Genesis Fruit was ripening dramatically increased, but it was not enough.

"Should I feed it merit too?" But w.a.n.g Wei soon shook his head as this would defeat his original purpose, so he kept thinking of alternative methods. The fruit did not seem peaky about what it used as energy.

"The best option would be to feed it a couple of Immortal Sovereigns since they are of similar essence (Tier 11). Secondly, I need a widespread power, easily gathered and one I do not use much."

As soon as he uttered these words, something came to his mind: "Dream Power."

It was very easy to gather the power of dreams from mortals and cultivators, meaning it had a large pool. Only Dong Lifen, the Eternal Dream Sect, and the Dream World also needed Dream Powers. However, the amount they used was insignificant compared to the population of the entire lower dimension.

'So, I only need to add a function of gathering more dream power to the Dream World and feed this fruit with its power. Then, hunt a few Immortal Sovereigns to use as fertilizer.'

w.a.n.g Wei was more looking forward to the expansion of the Dream World after discovering another valuable use.
