Chen Mo learned the rules of Source Beast upgrades, including automatic tier descents when higher slots are filled and the use of Seeking Saint Emperor Hearts to locate Saints. He opened an Upgrade Gift Pack, obtaining the risky Growth Origin Pill that could double or halve his initial growth value. Sun Wu revealed a method to guarantee success via the Time Secret Region's Time Elder exchange, prompting them to enter, where killing foes yields temporary survival time amid easier enemies and attribute-enhancing Lights.

Upon their entrance into the Time Secret Region, Chen Mo and Sun Wu found themselves in an exceptionally peculiar environment.

They stood on a circular platform, from which four distinct areas stretched outwards, each embodying a different season.

The eastern sector presented a scene of spring vitality, a garden landscape adorned with colossal flowers that emitted a sweet fragrance. These blossoms were, in fact, curious lifeforms clinging to towering trees, their petals shimmering faintly as they bloomed in the spring air.

Swarms of vibrantly colored flying creatures, their transparent, gemstone-like wings sparkling, flitted through the sky. Dew-like droplets adorned their bodies, releasing a fresh floral scent.

The ground itself undulated gently, resembling a grand, painted canvas. Even more immense, peculiar flowers formed a breathtaking sea of blossoms, each unique, its petals like translucent crystals casting a soft radiance. These were not mere flora but mobile entities, unfurling their petals and exuding an enchanting aroma.

Scattered amongst these starlike flowers, various vividly hued grasses swayed in the breeze, releasing a pleasant freshness. A gentle gust swept through, causing the floral and verdant expanse to ripple, carrying with it a wave of fragrance. In a lower realm, this would undoubtedly be a prime destination for a holiday.

Beyond these unknown lifeforms, the eastern area teemed with numerous source beasts.

In stark contrast, the southern area depicted the intense heat of summer. Towering trees boasted fruits that glowed with inner fire, radiating significant heat. The lakes, rather than holding ordinary water, contained flowing liquid lava, a spectacular sight under the summer sun.

Tall magma fountains erupted continuously from the earth, forming cascading lavafalls. These molten streams, like fiery serpents, writhed and danced, while at their edges, colossal stone pillars emitted steam. Along the banks of these lava rivers, fiery red lava flowers bloomed, casting a blazing light.

Beneath the waterfalls lay a radiant expanse of flame flowers. In the sky, a flock of birds resembling phoenixes with flame-patterned wings soared, each wingbeat releasing the beautiful glow of fire, painting the area like a land of flames.

The western region, conversely, offered a panorama of autumn's transformation. Predominantly yellow, the trees bore leaves that had turned metallic, each one resembling a piece of golden metal, producing a pleasant chiming sound as the autumn wind blew.

Harvested fruits hung suspended in the air, attracting flying metallic creatures that plucked them. Enormous metallic trees resonated with a melodic tune in the autumn breeze, their leaves crafted from pure gold, appearing like colossal works of art. Shimmering golden fruits swayed on the branches, exuding an alluring aroma.

Flying creatures with mechanical, kite-like wings navigated the autumn wind, scattering metallic leaves and imbuing the area with a unique, artistic beauty.

If the east conveyed vitality and the south hinted at danger, then the west exuded artistry. Chen Mo found himself quite drawn to the western landscape.

The northern area was embraced by the chill of winter. The ground lay blanketed in white snow, a world sculpted in silver frost. Ice Crystal Fruits, grown on branches, hung, radiating a palpable cold. On the frozen lake, ice crystal creatures leaped, their forms as transparent as ice sculptures, emitting an ethereal cold light.

In the air, ice crystal butterflies fluttered, their wings like shards of blue crystal, dancing in the winter wind and transforming the entire region into an icy wonderland.

While these four distinct zones possessed their own captivating aesthetics, they were far from devoid of peril. After all, each area contained a significant population of source beasts.

From Chen Mo's brief observation, dozens of source beast varieties were already apparent. In the eastern zone alone, numerous creatures were visible to the naked eye.

The Flower Shadow Beast, approximately three meters in size, possessed a body as pliant as petals. Despite its dimensions, it was a master of concealment, often blending seamlessly with the giant flowers, making it difficult to spot without diligent attention.

The Emerald Feathered Bird, adorned with feathers resembling tender green sprouts, exhibited extraordinary flight speed. Primarily inhabiting the trees and present in considerable numbers, these birds were not of exceptionally high cultivation tier.

The Rainbow Butterfly, with its translucent body and wings that shimmered with seven-colored brilliance, danced amidst the sea of flowers. Though numerous and of a lower tier, they appeared suitable for being 'mowed down' to extend survival time.

...

Observing the sheer quantity of source beasts, Chen Mo recognized that the Time Secret Region offered a considerable duration of survival time, readily available for collection. After all, these source beasts did not appear particularly powerful. Yet, Sun Wu had advised him to delay until he reached a higher cultivation level? With a touch of curiosity, Chen Mo inquired, "Brother Sun Wu, the creatures within this Time Secret Region don't seem overwhelmingly strong; why did you suggest waiting until my level was higher before venturing in?" Sun Wu chuckled in response, posing a counter-question, "Do you have any idea why I informed you beforehand that within this secret realm, various enhancement effects could be acquired to bolster our attributes?"
