He just wanted to figure out how to move the treasures out of here, but he didn't expect the system to provide a more ingenious solution.

They not only want these treasures, but also the entire blessed land and all the creatures within it.

However, he really liked the system's method, and Zicomo had had this thought in his mind at first.

"Do you know where the core of this blessed land is?" Zicomo then asked.

The core is located approximately 500 meters directly below the Fusang tree.

"OK! Thanks, system."

[Host, you don't need to be so polite]

Perhaps sensing that Zicomo's problem had been resolved, the system returned to standby mode after replying.

After ending his conversation with the system, Zicomo stood up and said to Lani beside him, "Come on, I'll take you to a fun place."

Zicomo brought Lani to the foot of the Fusang tree and activated the earth-遁 (earth-遁) technique he learned from Mount Shu.

The ground in front of them seemed to be parted by an invisible hand, revealing a downward-sloping passage.

To make walking easier, Zicomo also used earth magic to create a row of steps in the passage.

This escape technique, originally used by Shushan disciples for defense, has been used in great creative ways by Qi Kemo.

Zicomo led Lani down the steps to the core of this blessed land, as described by the system.

There is a small space of less than 20 square meters here, with nothing special about it.

The only special thing was the sphere of light at the center of the space, which was emitting a dazzling seven-colored light.

“This is the aura of space, but it’s different from the space I know,” Lani said.

She is quite skilled in spatial design and has a very keen sense of it.

Zicomo's battle against Phase Two Rena La in the Grand Archives of Rea Lucaria actually took place within an alternate dimension created by Lani.

Furthermore, in the game "Elden Ring," if the player chooses the Stars ending, the dark moon that appears behind Lani is not entirely a dark moon; at the center of the dark moon is a vortex, which is very similar to the vortexes of the portals in the Borderlands.

This reminds me of her leaving the border region and embarking on a path to hunt down the supreme will.

It's not hard to tell that the Dark Moon portal behind her is a passage to leave the border area.

All this evidence proves that Lani is highly skilled in spatial manipulation, perhaps even surpassing Zicomo in this regard.

After all, although Zicomo could sense the spatial aura emanating from the core of the blessed land before him, he did not perceive anything different.

“Your Majesty, may I examine it? I feel it could be of some help to me,” Lani said, looking at Zicomo.

"up to you."

Since the core is helpful to Lani, Zicomo is in no hurry to take it away.

Seeing that Zikomo did not object, Lani reached out her hands to touch the core, closed her eyes, and carefully felt the changes in the core.

This action lasted for a full two hours, with Zicomo waiting quietly on the sidelines.

At some point, Lani opened her eyes and slowly exhaled.

“Space, naturally formed space is indeed more magical than man-made space,” Lani exclaimed.

"Did you find anything?" Zicomo asked from the side.

“Yes, I’ve analyzed this core and made further progress in the use of space,” Lani said. “From now on, I will be able to construct perfect spaces, but the volume of the space will not be as large as this naturally formed one.”

Lani could construct spaces before, but those spaces were lifeless, devoid of life, and even lacking land. Moreover, the spaces were unstable and easily broken.

The space she has now constructed has a stable structure and all the conditions necessary for the survival of plants and animals.

Zicomo raised an eyebrow. Wasn't this the kind of powerful being Huo Xuan had mentioned, capable of creating secret realms?

Lani's strength has improved, and Zicomo is happy for her.

"Do you still want to use this core?" Zicomo asked.

“I’ve already analyzed it, so it’s no longer of any use to me,” Lani replied.

Zicomo nodded. Since it no longer worked on Lani, it was his turn.

Zicomo took out the key to the "Zen Garden" and inserted it directly into the core.

The core of the blessed land was destroyed by the key, emitting a dazzling light, causing the entire blessed land to shake violently.

However, this situation did not last long. As the key absorbed the core, the blessed land stabilized again.

As the key absorbed the core, the blessed land stabilized once again.

To be precise, there is no longer any blessed land here; it has been absorbed by the "Zen Garden" and incorporated into the "Zen Garden".

Now one of its edges has connected with the "Zen Garden," and if viewed from above, there is a clear dividing line between the two landmasses.

However, this was not a big problem for Zicomo, as the entire "Zen Garden" was under his control.

For him, merging the two lands completely was as simple as playing a garden building game.

"Your Majesty, what did you just do?"

Lani was a little curious. Zicomo had clearly destroyed the core of the blessed land, so why didn't this space collapse?

The key to the "Zen Garden" was created by the system, and even Lani couldn't see through it. It was the core of the "Zen Garden," which is why she couldn't understand Zicomo's actions.

“I have incorporated this blessed land into my ‘Zen Garden’.”

Zicomo gave a brief explanation of the core fusion situation.

He then said, "Let's go out and see what the situation is like outside."

The two arrived on the ground. Hermione, Huo Xuan, and Huang Xi had already come out of the Treasure Forest and returned to the lakeside because of the previous tremors.

The three were searching for Zicomo and Lani when they saw them emerge from the ground of the small island in the middle of the lake.

Zicomo flew towards the lake with Lani, glancing around as he went, but found nothing had changed.

After all, they are located in the center of the former blessed land, while the "Zen Garden" is on the edge.

Zicomo could only see the golden trees, which were tens of meters tall, in the distance.

Compared to the thousand-meter-tall hibiscus tree above his head, Zicomo suddenly felt a little disgusted with his golden tree, because it was far too short in comparison.

As soon as Zicomo landed, Hermione eagerly rushed over and asked, "Cousin, what did you just do? How did your golden tree end up over there?"

As she spoke, Hermione pointed to the golden tree in the distance.

“Yes, I’ve combined this blessed land with my ‘Zen Garden,’ and now the space is much more spacious,” Zicomo explained.

"Wait, what is 'Zen Garden'?" Huo Xuan suddenly asked.

Huang Xi was also very curious about this question. She looked at Qi Kemo and waited for his answer.

"You can consider this my blessed land, except that my blessed land is a bit special. Not only can it be carried with me, but it can also be continuously expanded by planting various rare and exotic herbs."

Zicomo's words startled Huo Xuan and Huang Xi, as they had never heard of such a magical blessed land.

The two of them had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

Seeing this, Zicomo continued, "Seeing is believing. Let me show you."

With that, Zicomo waved his hand, and the group arrived at the foot of the golden tree.

Outside, Zicomo might have to use Apparition, but inside the Zen Garden, he could teleport people from one place to another with just a thought.

In the "Zen Garden," he is truly omnipotent.

Upon arriving here, Huo Xuan was immediately drawn to the rapidly growing herbs in the herb area.

Although she didn't recognize some of the foreign herbs, there were some very precious ones that she coveted.

Huang Xi stared blankly at the golden tree, its aura incredibly alluring to her.

In addition, its golden appearance made Huang Xi feel that this was the tree where a phoenix should perch.

As for the phoenix trees in their tribe's territory? Even dogs wouldn't stay there!

Huo Xuan snapped out of his daze and asked Qi Kemo, "What's going on with these herbs? How come they're growing so fast?"

“My ‘Zen Garden’ can adjust the flow of time, currently up to two hundred times,” Zicomo explained.

Since he mastered the power of time, he has also improved his ability to regulate the flow of time in the "Zen Garden".

In fact, this multiplier can become even higher as Zikomo's mastery of the power of time increases, giving Zikomo another way to improve the time flow rate ratio.

Huo Xuan was completely shocked. Where could there be such a powerful blessed land? She really wanted one too.

This made her so envious her eyes turned red.

Huang Xi was equally shocked, but then she suddenly realized that if Qi Kemo had integrated the blessed land into his "Zen Garden", wouldn't their Phoenix Clan also be subject to his control?

Thinking of this, Huang Xi's eyes were filled with worry.

Qi Kemo sensed Huang Xi's thoughts and said to her, "Don't worry, I won't restrict the Phoenix Clan in any way, nor will I destroy your clan's territory."

However, as you can see, the original grotto-heaven and my 'Zen Garden' are so clearly separated that it doesn't look very appealing. So I'll make some minor modifications to the environment here.”

Upon hearing this, Huang Xi breathed a sigh of relief.
