My Apocalypse Territory
Chapter 493 - 452 Holy Domain

Under the nourishment of Source Qi, the mountains and the earth might also undergo changes, but Tang Yu estimated that this process would be relatively prolonged. As for the current Source Crystal Mine and Transcendent Metal Ore, they appeared abruptly due to some anomalous factor during the two changes in the heavens.

The transformation of the territory was much more apparent.

A Transcendent battle could easily destroy a small town. Tang Yu had previously worried that, as the enemies strengthened, the area surrounding his territory would inevitably suffer great upheavals.

He had no way to repair everything back to its original state with just a wish.

The location where the Transcendent beings of the two races had come to invade and where several alien Transcendents were besieged was still full of deep pits!

The few traces of battle did not affect the environment around the territory. Tang Yu pondered that perhaps these battle traces could be used as scenic spots, allowing the survivors of the territory to gain a more direct understanding of the Transcendent—further using this as an opportunity to launch a wave of ideological education, enhancing the cohesion of the territory's survivors, and even more so, boosting the daily production of Telekinesis in the territory—although his fitting degree with the territory was still far from leveling up to seven, it did not hinder him from accumulating some necessary resources.

Tang Yu did not forget the purpose of his trip to the back mountain and immediately relayed the situation of that vast space.

"Do you think that space was a Secret Realm left by a civilization before the Third Epoch?"

The Second Epoch was the most glorious era of Origin Star, but today's earth has few traces left from previous epochs.

The Secret Realms discovered to date all belong to the Fourth Epoch. The high-end techniques he knew, such as figurehead technology, floating airship manufacturing, and Secret Realm creation, were passed down from the Third Epoch.

Exactly how they came to be, probably only the Three Great Countries of the Fourth Epoch and the Mage Alliance had records.

The only direct connection to that glorious civilization was a "station," according to Zhen, situated on the Star Road, which in essence, no longer belonged to Origin Star.

Such a glorious civilization could not have disappeared all at once.

Zhen frowned, "It's not a Secret Realm. A Secret Realm is like bubbles attached to Origin Star; bubbles can be big or small, but too large a bubble is prone to burst. That space, just the explored area alone is as large as a province. I guess the total area might be more than ten times that, already exceeding the normal specifications of a Secret Realm.

As for a small world, it is because it possesses renewable Origin Ore veins, and the entire space forms a self-sustaining system, not necessarily much larger than a Secret Realm, as larger spaces are more unstable. Though, I recall in the Second Epoch, there were indeed some large alien spaces, but what you described doesn't match."

Tang Yu thought he wouldn't find any clues here with Zhen, but then heard Zhen continue,

"However, during the Second Epoch, it was rumored that there was a Core Area on Origin Star called the 'Holy Domain.'

That was the true nucleus of Origin Star, yet it was very mysterious; it was said that only the upper echelons of the Human Race, elites, and geniuses, had the qualifications to go to the 'Holy Domain.' I remember that in the past, Origin Star had some competitions to select geniuses. Those who stood out often disappeared for a while. When these individuals reappeared, they had already become masters of their realms."

"So, the 'Holy Domain' is a Cultivation Holy Land? But that space, besides the entrance's light column, has nothing else. It doesn't seem to have been destroyed, at least the floor is still intact."

Zhen shook his head, "No, the place you discovered should not be the real 'Holy Domain,' just the periphery. It's said the 'Holy Domain' is rich in endless Source Qi, possessing countless treasures. Even very rare abilities can be found there, with many corresponding inheritances, and Saints preaching, making it a place desired by everyone."

Tang Yu pondered for a while and suddenly asked, "Then why haven't you gone to the 'Holy Domain'?"

Zhen was stumped, silent for a few seconds, "I'm an Elf, not a Human!"

At least also a national... planetary treasure, not even able to go to the 'Holy Domain,' Tang Yu almost said being an Elf to this extent is somewhat a failure, but considering that Zhen was his only source of information about the Third Epoch for now, he still, well, couldn't provoke him.

Asking Zhen how to enter the real 'Holy Domain' would definitely be fruitless. After thinking, "Do you think there will be contingencies left by Saints in the 'Holy Domain'?"

This question was not only directed at Zhen but also at himself.

The Second Epoch, known as the Glory Age, even had the capability to contend against the mighty alien 'Devil Race.' Even if they were later defeated, it's not possible that they didn't leave any contingency, right?

Tang Yu's feelings were somewhat mixed.

After discussing with Zhen, he believed that the gates of the 'Holy Domain' might have only appeared recently. If there were contingencies left by the Saints of the Second and Third Epochs, then they would most likely be in the 'Holy Domain.'

Perhaps one day, the 'Holy Domain' would truly open, and only then could he enter its interior.

...

Time flies quickly.

Demonized Beasts could no longer pose a threat
