The light attribute was naturally not ordinary. Along with the dark attribute, it was an upper-tier attribute that possessed the special ability of sealing. However, it paled in comparison to the saint attributes possessed by the other Sacred Lands.
Outside the Academy, among the five Great Sacred Lands of the Boundless Continent, not all of them excelled in saint attributes.
First, the Heavenly Jewel Island did not excel in a saint attribute. However, the successive island masters of the Heavenly Jewel Island all possessed Alexandrite Cat's Eye jewels. While mastering four attributes, they also possessed the continent's only eleven-piece consolidated equipment set. It could be said that even without a God-tier powerhouse, the successive island masters could be pushed to the absolute pinnacle of the Heavenly Emperor stage.
The Snow God Mountain possessed a saint attribute--in fact, two major saint attributes. Thus, it was the undisputed number one power besides the Heavenly Jewel Island, and the Lord of the Snow God Mountain was the strongest powerhouse on the continent.
The Valley of Passion possessed the time attribute and specialized in dual cultivation. The powerhouses within the sect always paired up as one man and one woman to cultivate together, and most of them were husbands and wives. The power they could unleash when cooperating with each other was incredibly formidable and profound.
Su Wen had also visited the Valley of Passion. Although he did not gain access to their core secrets, he grasped a general understanding that there was a gap between the Valley of Passion's inheritance of the time attribute and that of the Snow God Mountain.
And it was no ordinary gap.
The Snow God Mountain relied on two great clans for stable inheritance. As long as one was of the direct bloodline, they could almost always inherit the divine saint attribute; it was only the awakening of the spiritual attribute that was relatively rare. Because of this, they were the most powerful force on the continent. Aside from the Heavenly Jewel Island, which possessed the unique eleven-piece Boundless Infinity Set, the Snow God Mountain was the undisputed number one in the world.
The Valley of Passion was different. Their overall power was no different from that of the Blood Red Hell or the Heavenly Demon Cult, but they possessed a saint attribute. The reason for this was that their inheritance of the time attribute was highly unstable.
It seemed to be a time attribute derived from fusing the attributes of a husband and wife through a secret technique.
Bloodline inheritance naturally existed, but there was no way to guarantee it would be passed down. Therefore, the powerhouses of the Valley of Passion always came in pairs. By complementing one another, they made up for the missing parts in their bloodlines, thereby allowing the husband and wife to simultaneously possess four attributes, including the saint attribute of time.
Of course, if they wanted to truly unleash its full might, the husband and wife had to strike together.
Such a drawback meant that the top-tier strength of the Valley of Passion was not overly absurd despite the existence of the time attribute.
Aside from these, the five Great Sacred Lands also included the Heavenly Demon Cult and the Blood Red Hell.
Among them, the Heavenly Demon Cult possessed three major upper-tier attributes: evil, darkness, and life. The evil attribute was even hailed as the attribute closest to a saint attribute.
With the coordination of these three major attributes, they could indeed contend with a saint attribute.
The Blood Red Hell, however, only specialized in two major attributes: light and fire. Among them, light was the only upper-tier attribute.
Were there forces on the continent established primarily by Heavenly Jewel Masters of the light attribute?
Yes!
Yet only the Blood Red Hell had reached the heights of a Sacred Land.
"The fusion of light and fire can actually derive the profound profound meaning of destruction."
This was also the foundation of the Blood Red Hell's continued existence.
Destruction--this was a creation-level power.
Su Wen had once gained insights into destruction and had some understanding of grand destruction. In his view, grand destruction was roughly a power on the same level as creation.
But even so, destruction, which was one tier lower, was definitely at a height that ordinary saint attributes could not reach.
Of course, the Blood Red Hell had only grasped a superficial smattering of the profound meaning of destruction through the fusion of the light and fire attributes. Therefore, their overall strength was still not at the forefront of the five Great Sacred Lands, being roughly on par with the Heavenly Demon Cult and the Valley of Passion.
Destruction.
When Su Wen passed through the Heavenly Demon Cult, he became interested in the life attribute. He stayed at the Heavenly Demon Cult for a full three months before barely managing to replicate the life attribute skills.
This was different from the life attribute of the Douluo Continent.
The life attribute on the Heavenly Jewel Planet was not purely related to vitality; it even involved incredibly powerful domains such as the soul and reincarnation. Replicating it was highly taxing for Su Wen. For every life attribute skill he replicated, even he had to resort to his martial soul's most unreasonable, brute-force activation method.
But because of this, although he had replicated them, Su Wen failed to analyze the essence of the life attribute and could not freely mobilize its power.
Having replicated the life attribute skills at the Heavenly Demon Cult, Su Wen had now arrived at the Blood Red Hell. With the help of the Hell Master of the Blood Red Hell, he had comprehended the profound meaning of destruction.
It could be said that this trip yielded a massive harvest.
"Hell Master, thank you." Su Wen cupped his fists to Fen Tian, the Hell Master of the Blood Red Hell.
Influenced by the original story, Su Wen's initial impression of Fen Tian had been negative, considering the guy a villain. Furthermore, during his interactions with the two Heavenly Emperors of the Blood Red Hell in Zhongtian City, their personalities were truly not great, which had perpetuated Su Wen's impression of them.
However, Su Wen no longer thought that way.
He now found these people from the Blood Red Hell quite endearing.
Arrogant on the surface, but actually good people.
"Grandmaster Wen is too polite. Our Blood Red Hell didn't lose out in this deal either." Fen Tian waved his hand, his face beamed with smiles.
Fen Tian certainly wouldn't lose out.
He had taken the initiative to impart the secret technique of the Blood Red Hell to Su Wen because he naturally fancied Su Wen's abilities, hoping to discuss it with him and further refine the secret technique.
It wasn't that only the light and fire attributes were related to destruction; it was just that the Blood Red Hell's secret technique could only derive the profound meaning of destruction using these two attributes as a starting point.
Through his discussions with Su Wen, Fen Tian successfully integrated the lightning and dark attributes into the secret technique.
Of course, Fen Tian did not possess these two attributes himself. He utilized Su Wen's Book of Storing. After completing the fusion, due to the high rank of the profound meaning of destruction, he naturally gained mastery over the four attributes fused into this profound meaning.
In other words, without needing the support of Su Wen's Book of Storing, and without needing to hone his own attribute compatibility, he directly achieved mastery over the four attributes by virtue of the profound meaning of destruction.
It could be said that while Su Wen's harvest was substantial, Fen Tian's harvest was no less than his.
"Grandmaster Wen, this secret technique is ultimately the foundation of my Blood Red Hell. I hope you will not pass it on to outsiders," Fen Tian said solemnly.
This was a private transaction; Su Wen could not leak it.
"Rest assured, Hell Master. Although the Academy aims to break down intellectual barriers, it also respects intellectual copyright."
Fen Tian breathed a sigh of relief.
Little did he know, Su Wen had already unsealed his clone on the Douluo Continent and transmitted the contents of the profound meaning of destruction to Xiao Zhan.
In just one year, after condensing his second soul core, Xiao Zhan's soul power level had skyrocketed.
With both soul cores condensed, he faced almost no bottlenecks. Once his soul power accumulated sufficiently, he would break through directly. In just one year, he had risen to rank ninety-four.
Receiving the cultivation method for the profound meaning of destruction sent by Su Wen, Xiao Zhan felt that his future had suddenly become even brighter.
At the Blood Red Hell.
Su Wen made his final contribution to this place.
In the southern part of the continent, within this naturally desolate land, everything looked as if it had been utterly destroyed.
Ruins and broken walls formed a unique terrain, drawing down endless rolling thunderclouds from the sky.
Su Wen carved an array formation around the area, drawing down the heavenly lightning.
"Hell Master, this core area of the Lightning Domain will only need ten years to breed an aura of destruction."
