As soon as anyone entered the small world, Adrian could control them indefinitely through the power of the Draco Veinergy. He conducted tests, confirming that this change had nothing to do with his levels.However, the core had its strengths and weaknesses. For sentient beings, it was nearly impossible to lure them in successfully unless they were exceptionally foolish. Adrian chuckled at the thought of opening the core and daring someone to enter. It would be sheer madness if an opponent knew it was a trap and still went in.Adrian's obsession with studying the core made him neglect even Lexie to some extent. He then discovered another intriguing phenomenon. When creatures died in the small world, it increased the vitality of the environment. This sensation was delicate yet profound. The rise in spiritual energy was noticeable, particularly from monstrous beasts rather than ordinary fish and shrimp. However, Adrian could not detect any other notable benefits of this at the moment.

The small world could evolve independently once laws were established, even if incomplete. Adrian did not realize that this was the primordial state of any major world.Understanding Lexie's suggestion, Adrian took out everything from the storage bags of the level twelve beasts. Regardless of their level, these beasts had a penchant for guarding celestial herbs, a destiny for lower-grade beasts and fundamentally unchanged for higher-grade ones. High-grade beasts especially cherished the seeds of celestial herbs, and they often traded and collected them for pleasure.Adrian planted all the seeds without hesitation, turning the entire rocky area into a densely cultivated plot. Lexie watched him perform this task. Just as she was about to leave out of boredom, she realized she could not exit the core.Initially thinking it was one of Adrian's pranks, she scolded him playfully but soon found out Adrian was equally puzzled. Even he was trapped within this space.Adrian joked. "Could we

A school of fish originally headed toward a secret market near the island, but Adrian manipulated the waves to drive them away. Occasionally encountering a rabbit, he would give it a carrot.In the beginning, Adrian randomly interfered with the food chain. He found that the fate of these rescued creatures became entangled in a knot so complex even he could not unravel it. Countless animals and plants, influenced by his interventions, contributed to the formation of this intricate knot.This knot brought Adrian immense surprise. Through his cumulative influence over time, he could alter the destinies of the world's creatures with mere gestures. The descendants of these animals and plants were also connected to this web, though not as firmly as the first generation. Adrian continued to influence the offspring of the second generation, firmly tying them to the knot of destiny through his interference. With a thought, he could grant life or death. If he wished for them to cease hunting

As Adrian walked out of Forgotten Shore, he noticed the distant battle was quite far away. Surprised, he said, "Lexie, could that be a beast swarm?""Seems like it. Judging from the current situation, there’s a large number of them,” Lexie answered.” Look over there, a level-nine immortal is leading a hundred Linked Stage immortals. Their offense and defense are well-coordinated, and they’re calm and composed as if they've been through countless battles.""This is indeed strange. We've just come out and we’re receiving a warm welcome of this magnitude? Shall we join the battle too?" Adrian, having been isolated for a long time, was itching for a good fight.Lexie nodded with a playful smile. "Let's see who can kill more."Adrian wasn't in the mood to compete with her. Winning or losing didn't matter; it was all boring to him. It was impossible for her to compete with him in this lifetime, but he still said, "Remember to place the dark beast corpses into the storage bags in time."

“Please come upstairs with me. We have not only excellent celestial plants but also elixirs suitable for your level and many high-grade mysterious artifacts there," the shopkeeper said, sensing a potential big spender and getting friendly with Adrian.Upstairs, Adrian noticed a peculiar-looking celestial plant seedling and asked the shopkeeper about it. The shopkeeper noted Adrian's interest and gladly explained. The seedling was from the Celestisorb Tree, a useful celestial plant specializing in absorbing celestial veins. When planted, it could release celestial veins, making it essential for immortals above level nine.Adrian was delighted and asked, "Are there more of these?"Curious, the shopkeeper asked, "Do you have hundreds of celestial veins or something?"Adrian frowned, pretending to be displeased. "Sir, isn't that a bit presumptuous of you?"Seeing his hint had failed, the shopkeeper smiled bitterly. "Please forgive me if I misspoke. I was just worried that you had misu
