After a month of touring various sites and opportunities falling solely to Zhou Youwei, resentment among the group reached its peak. Those who caused trouble were quickly dealt with. Now, they arrive at the final Cultivation Sacred Land, a bizarre continent with a brilliant surface and a hellish underside, promised to hold even greater opportunities and not be monopolized by Zhou Youwei. Guming Feixuan claims it as the birthplace of their clans, opened as a gesture of goodwill. However, Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei, recognizing the Sacred Land as a recent anomaly and suspecting it to be related to the Dou Tian Divine Domain, dismiss the hosts' words and enter the Sacred Land, ready to confront any threat. Meanwhile, Guming Feixuan and Heitian Yucheng reveal their grand plan for dominance, unaware their conversation is overheard.

Upon entering the so-called Sacred Land, Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei immediately sensed the rich spiritual energy here.

Indeed, it was even more astonishing than many places within the Heavenly Domain.

"Brother Ye, Miss Zhou, it seems this Black Sky Ancient Nether Sacred Land also contains the same power as before!"

Jin Que had clearly sensed the secret within and exclaimed in surprise.

Although he hadn’t absorbed that power before, being frequently by Ye Xuan’s side allowed him to detect the changes within.

"Same old rule, don’t absorb that power."

Ye Xuan reminded them aloud.

Despite feeling tempted, Jin Que deeply trusted Ye Xuan and nodded in agreement. However, he still voiced his doubts, "Brother Ye, you won’t let me absorb this power, but you let Miss Zhou absorb so much of it... Is that really okay?"

This was also his concern.

According to Brother Ye, this power had some strange aspects, but wouldn’t Miss Zhou’s absorption lead to trouble?

Ye Xuan shook his head slightly, saying nothing more.

There’s too much involved, and for now, Jin Que doesn’t need to know.

Seeing this, Jin Que was helpless, much like when he never found answers in his past life.

At this moment.

Cultivators from various clans who had entered the Sacred Land started tentatively absorbing the power.

Not absorbing was fine, but once absorbed, it felt noticeably enhanced.

This reassured them, letting them focus on experiencing it.

However, some sensed a slight anomaly, so they chose not to absorb and wandered in the Sacred Land, looking for anything amiss.

Ye Xuan, Zhou Youwei, and Jin Que advanced deeper.

The couple discreetly observed the changes in others.

That power, similar to the origin power of the Dou Tian Divine Domain, when absorbed, was bound to result in changes.

From Jin Que’s previous experience at Thousand Sword Valley, absorbing that power seemed to enslave everyone.

As Guming Feixuan and Heitian Yucheng mentioned, these people would likely become slaves of the Black Sky Ancient Netherworld.

Yet Ye Xuan felt this alone wasn’t enough to conquer the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.

After all, those who came to this Black Sky Ancient Netherworld were just a drop in the ocean.

Such few people couldn’t affect the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.

So, there was definitely a deeper scheme behind this.

This scheme was clearly enveloping both the All Heavens and the Heavenly Domain.

At this moment.

On the Tortoise Ferry of the Immortal Mountain, Guming Feixuan and Heitian Yucheng’s gaze remained fixed on Zhou Youwei.

In their eyes, others combined weren’t as important as Zhou Youwei.

"Is she planning to go directly to the place where the power is most concentrated?"

Seeing Zhou Youwei and the two others flying deep inside, Guming Feixuan raised an eyebrow.

Heitian Yucheng maintained a calm expression, saying, "Her talent is extraordinary. She absorbs this power even faster than us; going there is no problem."

Guming Feixuan nodded, "Once the Lords of the Divine Dynasty and Demon Palace arrive, we can step back."

Zhou Youwei’s matter is important, so they’ve notified the Black Sky Demon Palace and Guming Divine Dynasty.

Soon, strong individuals from there will come to take Zhou Youwei.

Thus, their mission will conclude early, and Black Sky Demon Palace and Guming Divine Dynasty will send others to manage the next batch of people.

They are likely to receive rewards from the Demon Palace and Divine Dynasty!

This is what’s most important.

Everyone has their destiny.

The path of cultivation, how far one can go, is mostly predetermined.

Starting from Foundation Establishment Five Realms generally determines the ceiling.

The two of them naturally reached their limit, unable to progress into the Sixth Realm of the Great Saint Realm.

Yet, they know there’s a power within the Divine Dynasty and Demon Palace that can break their limit.

But obtaining that power requires many contribution points, something they previously had no chance for.

However, discovering Zhou Youwei as the perfect vessel guaranteed massive contribution points, hence acquiring that power.

Then, they’ll break through their limit!

Exciting indeed.

As time passed.

Ye Xuan, Zhou Youwei, and Jin Que arrived at the central position of the Sacred Land.

Besides them, there were seven or eight Great Saint Realm beings present.

They too wished to cultivate where the power was most concentrated.

Upon seeing Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei, they all snorted coldly and picked spots slightly farther away to begin cultivation.

They truly didn’t want to cultivate with Zhou Youwei, fearing she’d absorb all their power.

Having witnessed this before, they naturally didn’t wish to experience it again.

"No living beings?"

Ye Xuan didn’t pay attention to these folks but searched for any Dou Tian Divine Domain living beings in the ’Sacred Land.’ His Emperor Soul spread out yet detected none.

This means there are no Dou Tian Divine Domain living beings here.

"I will continue absorbing this power; husband, see if there’s any change."

Zhou Youwei decided after some consideration.

Ye Xuan nodded, "Alright."

Then, Zhou Youwei resumed her terrifying absorption path, absorbing all the potent power from all directions.

Despite other Great Saint Realm powerhouses staying far, they were still affected.

Nevertheless, unable to trouble Zhou Youwei, they could only leave grumbling.

Time passed quickly.

Half a day had gone by.

The power here seemed endless.

And amidst cultivation, others began to change.

They’d mutter unintelligible phrases, their eyes filled with devotion.

As if they were loyal believers.

Even those few Great Saint Realm beings experienced this.

Ye Xuan naturally observed all of this.

He fell into contemplation.

If the origin power possessed such a capability, then his Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power should have similarly.

Yet when subjugating Duomu Zhongjin and Blood Image, he used the Soul Seal.

Rather than Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power.

Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power can directly devour the opponent’s origin power.

But not control.

Is it because the opponent’s inside was origin power?

Instead of Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power?

But later, Duomu Zhongjin and Blood Image’s internal origin power was actually power he evolved with Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power...

After pondering, Ye Xuan attributes the problem to his current strength.

Though his Taoist Body is at Great Success, he hasn’t fully cultivated the upper half of the Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Technique.

Perhaps precisely because of this, he has yet to touch the true core strength of Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power.

This is Ye Xuan’s temporary hypothesis.

"Youwei, there’s no need to continue."

Ye Xuan called Zhou Youwei to stop, gently saying, "I’ve found the source here."

Ye Xuan’s gaze fell upon the Spiritual Spring Spring Eye not far ahead.
