“My True Body has now reached the Fifth Order of Tier-6… My Innate Talent—Instant has condensed around 1,200 of Gears of Time. Though far from the ultimate state of 128,900 gears, it is already formidable in power…

As for my Innate Talent—Mastery of Lightning, it has now merged with the Nine Realms and become the Heavenly Tribulation that tempers all beings.

As for my Innate Talent—Everlasting Life, my greatest asset, sustains my massive body, as vast as a star, with unceasing Vitality, as if I were Immortal. As my True Body grows, so too does it.”

A series of murmurs escaped Yu Zi Yu as he reflected on his current Innate Talents.

His various abilities were secondary. After all, these abilities were dependent on his Innate Talents.

If he could fully develop his Innate Talents, a range of strange and terrifying powers would naturally emerge. Given that, he thought he might take advantage of this time to delve into one Innate Talent in particular—Absolute Evolution.

As these thoughts flashed in his mind, a glint of resolve flashed deep within Yu Zi Yu’s eyes.

Absolute Evolution was his most peculiar Innate Talent, without exception.

Now, after reaching Level 6, this Innate Talent had become even more profound.

One of its most straightforward applications was the ability of infinite transformation. It allowed him to not only mimic the form but also the essence.

If he wished, Yu Zi Yu could now perfectly transform into Nine Tails without a single flaw. But this was only the most basic application of Absolute Evolution.

Its true potential lay in its ability to deduce the abilities of the Divine Trees that existed only in legends, and then turn it into his own.

Yu Zi Yu’s Heavenly Eye was originally obtained by emulating a power from one such legendary tree.

Now, with Absolute Evolution reaching Level 6, this simulation—no, more accurately, this ‘appropriation’—should be even easier.

At this thought, an enigmatic smile spread across Yu Zi Yu’s face.

As it happened, he was currently in need of the power of a mythical Divine Tree… This Divine tree had some relation to him.

According to legend, there exists a ‘Tree of Miracles of Infinite Fruits,’ whose each fruit bestowed magical abilities upon those who consume it.

Like Elemental Fruits, that transformed beings into pure Elementals. There were Monster Fruits that transformed Humans into animals. And then there were the Fruits of Principle, that even held primal power.

And it precisely was the power of this Tree of Miracles he sought.

Previously, by harnessing various Elemental Energies, he had created six Elemental Fruits, elevating the talents of his six subordinates to extraordinary heights, defying their destined limitations.

Now, if he could appropriate the power of this Tree of Miracles to create various unusual fruits once more, it could substantially enhance his subordinates’ strength.

As for whether sacrificing his own power to benefit his subordinates would be a loss?

There was no need to even consider it. Each fruit would require his subordinates to pay a steep price to obtain. This alone would ensure a profitable exchange and, moreover, earn his subordinates’ loyalty.

In addition, these fruits served another crucial purpose: they allowed Yu Zi Yu to absorb his subordinates’ cultivation insights.

In other words, his subordinates would aid in his cultivation.

No matter how exceptional he was, he could not compare to the strength gained when thousands cultivated on his behalf.

By granting these fruits to exceptionally talented individuals, he could ‘grow stronger effortlessly.’

Of course, ‘effortlessly’ was a bit of an exaggeration. However, it was undeniably a godly method of cultivation.

As for how amazing it was, just one point was enough to elaborate it.

There were 3,000 Daos, and mastering just even one to its fullest could allow one to attain Eternity.

However, if Yu Zi Yu were to simultaneously master all 3,000 Daos to perfection, what would happen? Yu Zi Yu did not know, nor did he dare to imagine.

In countless eons, no one had even dared to consider such a feat. Even that legendary Human Immortal might dismiss it as mere fantasy.

Cultivating a single Dao was already a struggle, let alone all 3,000 Daos.

Be that as it may, Yu Zi Yu, now, held a faint glimmer of hope.

If… If even one of his cultivated subordinates were to reach Eternity…No, not even Eternity. If even one could reach the Realm of Hegemony, it would mean Yu Zi Yu could gain mastery over one additional Principle, seemingly out of thin air.

And if all 3,000 were to reach the Realm of Hegemony…

Of course, 3,000 would be unlikely.

However, if even one or two reached the Realm of Hegemony, Yu Zi Yu would gain one or two new Principles to wield. And that would be a profound, solid foundation.

*Hooooo…* Taking a deep breath, Yu Zi Yu calmed the sudden rush of excitement.

“It’s decided then. I’ll simulate the Tree of Miracles and appropriate its power… and create an unprecedented cultivation method.” With that decision, Yu Zi Yu turned his gaze to the status screen.

After a moment, seeing over two billion Evolution Points available, he felt content. It should be enough to seize the power of the Tree of Miracles.

This was the fruit of five years’ of hard work.

Of course, not solely his own efforts, but thanks to each of his Apostles, tirelessly toiling on his behalf.

For the first time, Yu Zi Yu had experienced the satisfaction of ‘lying back and watching his Evolution Points soar.’

He had to admit, it felt incredible. This experience had inspired him to consider having others help him cultivate.

And he had the ability to make it happen.

In fact, during these past five years, Yu Zi Yu’s mastery over each Element had advanced dramatically.

Like now, focusing his gaze, Yu Zi Yu’s mere glance caused mountain after mountain to rise from the ground.

Under his will, these mountains twisted and morphed, transforming into towering stone giants, hundreds of meters high, exuding a terrifying aura.

This was the power of Qing Gang, the Son of Earth. In these five years, Qing Gang had finally reached Tier-5.

And thanks to this, Yu Zi Yu’s command over the Earth Element had undergone a qualitative change, pushing it to this level.
