Xue Dili suddenly realized that everything he was feeling was fake; he must have fallen into the Illusion Realm of the Lord of Mist.
After all, before this, he had consumed a mass of the Lord of Mist's flesh and blood, even though it was flesh and blood completely refined by the Mimic Venerable King, used to forcibly elevate Xue Dili's current power, but it was ultimately not Xue Dili's own power.
Under normal circumstances, this mass of flesh and blood wouldn't cause problems within his body; instead, it would obediently become a power-supplying machine, silently altering the pile of ancestral code left to Xue Dili by those disorganized ancestral rats.
Thus this could be considered a different kind of consuming the Divine Tree Fruit?
The Apostles eat the fruit, Xue Dili eats the Apostles.
