In the quiet chamber of Seven Jade Incense Wood, Dongbo Xueying sat cross-legged. The moment he took the first bite of the Spirit-Calming Heart Fruit, a wave of icy coolness surged from his throat, rapidly spreading throughout his body and even permeating his soul, rendering it completely chilled. Instantly, flashes of insight regarding the Void Path emerged in his mind, presenting numerous ideas to break through the bottleneck.
Overjoyed, he immediately consumed the entire fruit and devoted himself wholeheartedly to comprehending the Void Path.
Though his soul was icy, his thoughts raced with unprecedented clarity, and inspiration struck repeatedly.
Cultivation bottlenecks were typically tedious—when stuck, one often felt helpless, with a blank mind and no clue how to proceed. That was why cultivators would venture out, engage in battles, or practice other techniques, hoping that prolonged accumulation would eventually spark new breakthroughs.
Inspiration was precious.
Dongbo Xueying had primarily used his Void Path for avatar techniques, never fully unleashing its potential. But when he encountered the *Dark World* technique, inspiration surged like a spring, prompting him to immediately enter seclusion. He even splurged on the most exclusive chamber in the Seven Stars Sea Pavilion—the Seven Jade Incense Wood Quiet Room. Over seventy thousand years of secluded cultivation, his gains were immense. His comprehension of the *Dark World*’s first form, *Dark Bubble*, reached an astonishing level, and his Void Path even touched the pinnacle bottleneck of the Nascent Realm.
Yet, as the years passed, inspiration dwindled, and the bottleneck became increasingly insurmountable.
Conventionally, there were only a few ways forward: either grind through time—perhaps spending a billion or two billion years in the Time Palace—hoping for a breakthrough into the Unity Realm (which would already signify exceptional talent), or venture out to seek battles and opportunities.
But there was another, far more extravagant method: using cultivation aids.
Dongbo Xueying had never used something as potent as the Spirit-Calming Heart Fruit before. His first trial was not just for his own cultivation but also to test its effects before offering it to his wife, Jing Qiu, and son, Yu’er.
The results were spectacular.
*”The Void Path’s rule system requires unification—all things converging into one.”* Countless insights flashed in Dongbo Xueying’s mind, and he immediately began dissecting them one by one. His comprehension speed was now astonishingly fast.
The Unity Realm was considered the threshold of true power in the Five Great Sacred Worlds and the Chaos Void. Depending on the difficulty of the cultivation system, the strength of a Unity Realm expert varied. Systems like Bloodline Cultivation, the Ancestral Mother Religion, or Devouring-type paths were relatively weaker at this stage, whereas paths like the *Sorcery* or *Rule and Mystery* systems were far more formidable.
For those in the Rule and Mystery system, reaching the Unity Realm meant that, given enough time, clearing the third level of the Star Tower was no great challenge. The exceptional could even surpass the fourth level, and the monstrously talented could conquer the fifth.
Dongbo Xueying was one such monstrous talent—he had already cleared the third level of the Star Tower while still in the Nascent Realm!
Suddenly, his eyes snapped open. His pupils were pitch-black yet radiant, and his entire being exuded an aura of perfect harmony—like a divine weapon tempered through countless refinements. The illusory world around him rapidly shrank, condensing into an infinitesimal point.
This point was tiny.
Yet it was incomparably dense and pure, far more stable and powerful than his previous illusory world.
“Unity Realm,” Dongbo Xueying murmured softly.

**Within his inner world:**
A colossal planet, once resembling a sun, had previously operated under the Void Path’s rule system. But now, as the Void rules fully unified into a singular point—the *Source of the Void*, the ultimate origin of all illusions—the planet began to collapse.
With thunderous roars, the massive celestial body spun and shrank rapidly—first tenfold, then a hundredfold, a thousandfold, a millionfold, a billionfold… Smaller than a typical planet, then smaller than a hundred-meter sphere, then even smaller than a fist. As it compressed, its density skyrocketed to unimaginable levels.
Unity Realm experts of certain systems, like the *Strongest Warrior Path*, continuously enhanced their body density, making their physiques so formidable they could rival Void-grade divine weapons. Thus, even average Unity Realm warriors of this path could easily clear the third level of the Star Tower, while the most monstrous could conquer the fifth. Historically, one such warrior had even cleared the seventh level—his body so indestructible it matched high-grade Void weapons!
Finally, the once-sun-sized planet collapsed into a singularity—a black point so minuscule it defied measurement, existing purely as the ultimate convergence of energy.
Around it, space warped and twisted.
The *Source of the Void* rules became its core. Without them, the terrifying energy within would explode instantly, obliterating Dongbo Xueying’s body into dust.
*”The Source of the Void.”*
*”The origin of all things.”*
*”The seed of a future universe.”*
Dongbo Xueying understood: this point was the true ultimate origin of the Rule and Mystery system. Only from this could a true miniature Chaos Universe emerge—the embryonic form of a real cosmos. Those who reached the Chaos Realm with such an inner universe wielded immense power. Of course, every system had its own monstrous strengths at that level. But to truly open the heavens and earth within the Chaos, birthing a complete universe?
That was the domain of the ultimate existence—**Cosmos Gods**.
And the origin of that final cosmic evolution? It was the singular point formed at the Unity Realm.
**”Hmm.”**
In his sea of consciousness, his true spirit heart immediately restructured his soul using the newly comprehended *Source of the Void* rules. His soul-body condensed, its brilliance turning inward, undergoing a qualitative transformation. His deduction speed skyrocketed once more. The higher one’s realm, the faster their comprehension—which was why Cosmos Gods could create universes and even develop techniques capable of annihilating entire Sacred Worlds.
Such power was truly awe-inspiring.

Dongbo Xueying opened his eyes, a smile spreading across his face. Breaking through to the Unity Realm via the Void Path had been faster than expected. For the first time, his Rule and Mystery system had surpassed his Voidwalker system in progression speed.
*”It’s been 2,300 years since consuming the Spirit-Calming Heart Fruit, and I’ve already reached the Unity Realm.”* He could still feel the lingering chill in his soul. *”The fruit’s power hasn’t been fully exhausted yet. I must continue cultivating!”*
He dared not waste a single moment.
The effects of the Spirit-Calming Heart Fruit lasted for a limited time, and during this period, one had to cultivate with absolute focus.
*”Dark World!”*
He resumed studying this supreme technique. Having just grasped the *Source of the Void*, his comprehension of *Dark Bubble*—the first form of *Dark World*—progressed with newfound ease. Previously insurmountable obstacles now unraveled effortlessly as inspiration flowed endlessly…
