“Is there some kind of special Secret Technique required for the transformation?” Yang Kai boldly speculated.

Li Yuan Wang shook his head in response, “The transformation is not caused by the use of a Secret Technique. On the contrary, you have to cultivate a specific Secret Art from the beginning. This Secret Art does not have powerful properties, so there are no advantages in a battle against others. However, it allows the cultivator to transform their Small Universe into a Small Source World at the time of their death. Of course, it is not that simple. The birth of a Small Source World is a very complicated process. It can be said that the cultivator has to pay a lifetime’s worth of hard work for their efforts to succeed.”

Yang Kai understood, “Sect Master, do you mean that from the very beginning, these people cultivated for the sole purpose of transforming their Small Universe into a Small Source World after their deaths?”

Li Yuan Wang nodded solemnly, “Nobody forced them. They were aware of their future destiny when they first cultivated this Secret Art.”

Yang Kai was slightly stunned by those words.

After cultivating hard for a lifetime, their Small Universe would eventually be transformed into a Small Source World after their deaths to become a training place for others. That would require a great amount of dedication and a strong sense of belonging to one’s Sect.

While achieving such a feat might be as difficult as ascending to the Heavens for any other great force, it would not be difficult to find such disciples among the Cave Heavens and Paradises that boasted an inheritance of countless years. What’s more, cultivating this special Secret Art would not cause any harm to the disciples. It was just that they might suffer some disadvantages in battle. That was because the Secret Art was unsuited for combat; it was only suitable for cultivation.

“The formation of a Small Source World is not an easy feat, and not every attempt will succeed.” Li Yuan Wang explained, “Most of the time, among all the people who cultivate this Secret Art, only one out of ten can successfully produce a Small Source World. I’m sure you understand why the Small Source Worlds are so precious even to the Cave Heavens and Paradises now.”

Yang Kai nodded.

On a fundamental level, a Small Source World was the Universe Paradise or Universe Cave Heaven left behind after the death of a High-Rank Open Heaven Realm Master.

How many years would it take for a cultivator to grow from an ignorant child to a High-Rank Open Heaven Realm Master before finally reaching the end of their life? Despite such a long wait, there was only a 10% chance of producing a Small Source World in the end. How could a Small Source World not be precious?

Yang Kai suddenly thought of something, “If that’s the case, does that mean all the living beings in the Small Source World are real?”

Li Yuan Wang nodded, “Of course! The disciples who cultivate this Secret Art will never participate in battle; hence, they will start raising living beings in their bodies to form the World Principles in their Small Universe as soon as they advance into the High-Rank Open Heaven Realm and their Small Universe transforms from immaterial to material. The prosperity of those living inside would be enough to guarantee that the World Force of the Small Source World would continue to increase even after their deaths. Moreover, the various rules decided by the Master before his death will become the goal of the disciples who enter the Small Source World in the future. By achieving this goal, their training will be completed successfully. The disciples will then obtain the recognition of the Small Source World’s World Principles and receive great benefits!”

Yang Kai revealed a look of understanding.
