“A Realm of Origin, are you sure?”
Ye Tian was equally shocked.
The Realm of Origin was no ordinary place. Even within the vast chaos, it was an incredibly rare treasure land, one that only appeared once in countless eras. Every time it was born, it would lead to the fall of many True Ancestors.
The Realm of Origin typically emerged in Chaos and had never appeared in a universe nor a Dao Realm before. But now, it had unexpectedly manifested within the quasi-Dao Realm.
The Realm of Origin was indeed a type of world, but it wasn’t an ordinary one. It was a treasure land specifically for the birth of innate origin objects used for cultivation.
In the Realm of Origin, every plant was an innate origin object, and nearly all could be used for cultivation. These innate origin objects could enhance one’s cultivation, refine the body, or strengthen the divine soul. They were practically omnipotent innate origin items.
The only thing they couldn’t assist with was cultivating chaos divine abilities, which was a limitation of innate origin objects used for cultivation.
Strictly speaking, these innate origin objects could be considered top-tier cultivation resources.
Once one entered the Realm of Origin, even a small harvest would be a tremendous gain!“Where did the Realm of Origin appear?” Ye Tian asked.
“The Flower Goddess True Nation,” True Monarch Sundragon replied truthfully.
“So, it’s in the Flower Goddess True Nation!”
Ye Tian knew a bit about the Flower Goddess Valley behind this True Nation. It was a powerful force with only one Dao Ancestor, and this Dao Ancestor wasn’t particularly strong. She had only recently become a Dao Ancestor and was considered a newcomer.
The Flower Goddess Valley was also a relatively new major force, far from being on par with the older, top-tier forces.
Moreover, all disciples of the Flower Goddess Valley were female, a tradition the sect had upheld.
“If the Realm of Origin had emerged within the War God Tower, the Immortal Gate, the Chaos Merchant Guild, or the Giant Axe City, even if those forces couldn’t fully control the Realm of Origin, they could at least secure most of the benefits. But the Flower Goddess True Nation is too weak. I’m afraid they won’t be able to hold onto much of the profit!” Ye Tian thought to himself.
Weakness… It was truly tragic. Even if an astounding opportunity appeared within the True Nation, they wouldn’t be able to protect it. How pitiful!
Moreover, the Flower Goddess True Nation was vast and densely populated, so it was impossible to fully conceal the news. As a result, the information leaked, leading countless True Monarchs to flock to the Flower Goddess True Nation.
Although the Flower Goddess Valley could mobilize the forces of the True Nation to suppress the other True Monarchs, they didn’t dare to do so. If they did, the top-tier forces would invade the Flower Goddess True Nation, and even with the True Nation’s forces, they would inevitably be defeated!
From True Monarch Sundragon’s words, Ye Tian learned that the Realm of Origin was still in the process of gestating and hadn’t fully formed yet. Otherwise, countless True Monarchs would have already rushed into it.
“Sundragon, are you planning to go to the Realm of Origin?” Ye Tian asked.
“Master, this subordinate won’t be going,” True Monarch Sundragon replied after a brief internal struggle, ultimately shaking his head and giving up on the idea of entering the Realm of Origin.
He was well aware of his own strength. While he was formidable compared to ordinary True Monarchs, he was too weak when compared to the top-tier True Monarchs.
Those terrifying top-tier True Monarchs could crush him with just a single finger.
If he went to the Realm of Origin, there was a 99% chance he wouldn’t make it out alive. Although the innate origin objects in the Realm of Origin were abundant and valuable, no harvest was worth it if one couldn’t survive.
Thus, he chose not to go to the Realm of Origin.
“That’s probably for the best. Once the Realm of Origin fully manifests and the other True Monarchs finish their struggle for it, you can enter then. By that time, there may be fewer innate origin objects, but it’ll be much safer, with less bloodshed,” Ye Tian advised.
“Yes, Master!” True Monarch Sundragon nodded and then asked, “Master, are you going to the Realm of Origin?”
“I am!” Ye Tian responded.
Ye Tian said, “I currently need a large amount of resources, and the Realm of Origin can provide me with a significant harvest, so I naturally must go.
However, you don’t need to worry about my safety. I may not be as strong as those top-tier True Monarchs, but my life-preserving abilities are definitely not inferior.”
True Monarch Sundragon nodded. He knew just how terrifying his master’s ability to preserve his life was, truly defying the heavens.
“True Monarch Sundragon, go investigate how much longer it will take for the Realm of Origin to fully manifest. I need to go into seclusion for some time.” Ye Tian instructed.
“This subordinate will handle it right away!” True Monarch Sundragon departed.
After he left, Ye Tian returned to his territory and took out some advanced resources to begin cultivating in seclusion.
Using advanced resources to cultivate sped up Ye Tian’s progress significantly.
Originally, when using ordinary resources to cultivate the True Spirit Chapter of the Profound Void Technique, it would have taken him billions of years to complete the second layer. However, with advanced resources, it would only take a few million years.
And so, the years passed one after another.
Not long after, True Monarch Sundragon brought news, informing Ye Tian of the exact time when the Realm of Origin would be fully formed.
“In six million years!”
This was the estimated time, calculated by many True Monarchs.
To a True Monarch, a mere six million years was nothing.
Thus, outside the Flower Goddess True Nation, numerous giant cities were erected. The True Monarchs stayed there, cultivating in seclusion while waiting for the complete birth of the Realm of Origin.
The Flower Goddess Valley could do nothing about this and had no choice but to let the True Monarchs act as they wished.
In the blink of an eye, five hundred thousand years passed.
By now, Ye Tian had fully mastered the second layer of the True Spirit Chapter of the Profound Void Technique, and his physical body had doubled in strength, causing his power to skyrocket once again.
“With only one million years left, there’s no way to finish cultivating the third layer of the Profound Void Technique. I should focus on something else instead!”
Ye Tian thought for a moment and ultimately decided to improve his embryonic Grand Dao.
After all, the embryonic Grand Dao’s boost in battle was significant, and it was the fastest way to enhance his strength.
Thus, through focused cultivation, Ye Tian’s embryonic Grand Dao extended to a length of 90,000 meters and a width of 30,000 meters.
Such a powerful embryonic Grand Dao provided a great boost to Ye Tian’s strength.
On this day, as the Realm of Origin was about to be born, countless True Monarchs flooded into the Flower Goddess True Nation once again.
Ye Tian also entered the Flower Goddess True Nation, but this time he was accompanied by the True Monarchs from the Void Sky Hall.
“Junior brother, you’ve only recently become a True Monarch. Entering the Realm of Origin could be dangerous!” True Monarch Dragon Sea reminded him through a voice transmission.
“Senior Brother Dragon Sea, I may not have enough strength, but I’m very good at preserving my life!” Ye Tian smiled as he responded.
Seeing this, True Monarch Dragon Sea didn’t say anything more, but recalling their master’s advice, he added, “This is a special communication talisman that can pinpoint your location. Even within the Realm of Origin, it can still be used. If you really find yourself in danger, contact me, and I’ll come to your rescue as quickly as possible.”
“Thank you, Senior Brother Dragon Sea!” Ye Tian accepted the talisman.
Under normal circumstances, this communication talisman wouldn’t be very useful. However, if he ever encountered a situation beyond his control, this talisman would become his last lifeline.
