It would only take ten years to breed an aura of destruction!
For the Red Hell, this could be described as the foundation of the entire Sacred Land in the future.
This was also the deal between Su Wen and the Red Hell.
Otherwise, without absolute benefits, the Red Hell would have no reason at all to hand over their most fundamental secret art to Su Wen.
Accumulating over years and months with the might of thunder to breed an aura of destruction was something that only Su Wen could achieve.
This was because it required more than just drawing down the power of thunder; it required stabilizing this celestial phenomenon to last for a full ten years, or even longer.
This already involved changing the heavens and earth, something that even a Heavenly Emperor could not accomplish.
Of course, briefly destroying the ecology of a certain place to cause a harsh environment was possible. However, the environment gathering thunder power that the Red Hell needed was for cultivation. Naturally, it could not be achieved through destruction; otherwise, even they themselves would not gain any benefits.
"Ten years." Fen Tian did not think this period was too long. On the contrary, he felt it was very short.
So short that it would only take a flash of an eye to have a chance to wait it out.
When the time came, with this region of thunder serving as a place for the younger generations within the sect to cultivate, the number of disciples capable of comprehending the Intent of Destruction would also greatly increase.
And this was not even the greatest benefit.
With Su Wen's help just now, Fen Tian had integrated the two attributes of Thunder and Darkness into his Intent of Destruction, but he was still the only one who had mastered it.
If the Red Hell wanted to integrate these two attributes into their inheritance system as well, it would inevitably require a great deal of time. Among these, Thunder-attribute Heavenly Jewel Masters were a major dilemma.
Fortunately, the existence of this thunder region could solve the Red Hell's greatest worry in this regard.
The attributes of a Heavenly Jewel Master were influenced by factors of bloodline inheritance on one hand, but on the other hand, they were also influenced by the external environment.
After all, apart from the physical development of the body toward a fixed direction, the most essential factor in the awakening of a Heavenly Jewel Master was the affinity their body had for various attributes at the moment of awakening.
With the existence of this thunder region, the surrounding Thunder-attribute elements would become denser. The impact of this on the bodies of the people in the surrounding empires could not be ignored.
And the surrounding empires were the main source of disciples for the Red Hell.
Coupled with the emergence of the Academy, whose purpose was to contribute to the development of the Heavenly Jewel Master world, the proportion of ordinary people awakening Heavenly Energy across the entire continent had now multiplied several times over.
With the two factors combined, the Red Hell would not be unable to find the Thunder-attribute disciples they required in the future.
Fen Tian was beaming with smiles at this moment, extremely satisfied with his decision this time.
In fact, at the very beginning, he had only thought of trading with Su Wen, relying on Su Wen's understanding of various attributes to help the Red Hell's secret art complete a further development, as long as it could integrate the Thunder attribute. As for the Darkness attribute, it was a complete and pleasant surprise.
As for this thunder region, it was also a promise Su Wen made to repay the Red Hell.
From this point of view, the Red Hell's investment had yielded a massive return.
After all, it was impossible for Fen Tian to make decisions completely on his own. Although he was the Lord of the Hell, he could not actually be considered completely despotic within the Red Hell; he also needed to obtain the recognition of the other Heavenly Emperor powerhouses.
And merely developing the Red Hell's secret art and befriending Su Wen, the Master of the Academy, would have already been enough to convince those Heavenly Emperor powerhouses, let alone this extra thunder region now.
"The bottleneck that has been troubling me seems to have loosened as well." This excited Fen Tian even more.
His breakthrough was just a small step, but the most essential reason for his breakthrough was the key--this was a giant leap for the entire Red Hell.
The cultivation of a Heavenly Jewel Master depended on talent on one hand, and resources on the other.
Relying on the inheritance of the Red Hell, even though they were only Heavenly Jewel Masters of the Light and Fire attributes, their achievements were worlds apart from external Heavenly Jewel Masters. This was the advantage of an inheritance.
Yet the upper limit of the past generations of Hell Lords of the Red Hell was only at the eleventh-tier Heavenly Emperor level, which also meant that the inheritance of the Red Hell stopped there.
But if he, Fen Tian, could achieve a breakthrough, and the opportunity for this breakthrough happened to be a breakthrough in the Intent of Destruction, it would also mean that the inheritance of the Red Hell itself had reached the Heavenly God level.
If there were outstanding disciples in future generations, they would also have the opportunity to follow this path to break through to Heavenly God!
Fen Tian no longer knew how to thank the person in front of him.
Su Wen actually saw Fen Tian's excitement as well and could feel the instability of Fen Tian's Heavenly Dao Energy. It was a sensation of being able to integrate further into this world at any moment.
"Lord of the Hell, there is no need to be too polite. This is also what I should do."
Su Wen had always repaid kindness with kindness. Since the Red Hell gave him benefits, he would give back in return.
As for how much he gave back, it all depended on personal ability.
Fortunately, though opening up a thunder region was somewhat difficult for him, it was not overly hard. The time consumed was only about a month, and the process of opening the thunder region just happened to give him an opportunity to digest the gains from his travels along the way.
It could be said to kill multiple birds with one stone.
Su Wen was not opening this thunder region just for the Red Hell, but also to verify everything he had comprehended.
The significance of the Intent of Destruction to Su Wen was much greater than Fen Tian imagined.
"Only by comprehending destruction do I have a deeper understanding of the Saint Energy of Creation."
After Su Wen arrived at the Heavenly Jewel Planet, the very first thing he actually thought about was the Saint Energy of Creation.
When the trial of the God of Time appeared back then, he had also thought of this immediately.
Even the inheritance of Consolidated Equipment Masters and the like were not what he coveted the most. For Su Wen, the greatest benefit in this world was the Saint Energy of Creation, which could be born through the fusion of the four saint attributes.
Of course, this also required an opportunity.
As far as Su Wen knew, after the four saint attributes fused, they could give birth to Saint Energy. He had replicated this himself after witnessing the fusion of Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er. Although the color was incorrect, Su Wen was certain that his Saint Energy was indeed Saint Energy.
But the Saint Energy of Creation was different. It not only required the fusion of the four saint attributes, but also had other conditions.
Su Wen was not clear whether these other conditions were unique. In the original story, the Saint Energy of Creation only appeared when Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er's child was an infant.
The process of nurturing a new life seemed to fit the concept of creation, so it underwent a change and gave birth to the Saint Energy of Creation.
But it was only a fleeting Saint Energy of Creation.
The moment the Saint Infant hit the ground, the Saint Energy of Creation dissipated, and it could not be mastered permanently.
In seeking the Saint Energy of Creation, it was impossible for Su Wen to merely seek that single moment of mastery; he also wanted to master it permanently.
For now, maintaining the relationship between Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er as much as possible and pushing it forward according to the progress of the original story was also his safety measure.
Even if it was just a short duration of control, that was the Saint Energy of Creation after all.
Just like how Su Wen had replicated it through visualization after watching the fusion process of Saint Energy, maybe he could replicate the Saint Energy of Creation as well.
Of course, all of this became ridiculous after Su Wen comprehended the Intent of Destruction.
"The Saint Energy of Creation cannot be replicated!"
