The strongest person in this cultivation system is also the only one who has used this cultivation system to break through to the 8th level of the extraordinary realm.
Over countless years, after continuously investing massive amounts of rare and precious resources, he has raised his world level to the level of the Great Thousand Worlds, and thus become a powerful figure among the 8th level extraordinary experts.
This powerful figure is the crown prince of the Heavenly Court, and the eldest son of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West.
The reason why the Crown Prince of Heaven was able to push his cultivation to the eighth level of the extraordinary realm through the cultivation system was largely thanks to the Demon Emperor Donghuang Taiyi.
After the Demon Court took sole control of the Great World of Mountains and Seas, the Heavenly Court was pressured by the Demon Court and the restless hearts of the people.
The Jade Emperor finally decided to use the vast resources that the Heavenly Court had stored up over countless ages to invest in his eldest son, helping him successfully upgrade the world he owned, which was at the peak of the Middle Thousand Realms, to the level of the Great Thousand Realms.
After exhausting most of the Heavenly Court's resources, the eldest son of the Jade Emperor finally lived up to the Jade Emperor's expectations and elevated his own world to the level of the Great Thousand Worlds.
His own strength was also enhanced by the vast world he possessed, making him a powerful figure among the eighth-level extraordinary experts.
With the continuous support from the vast world he possessed, the Heavenly Prince's combat power was comparable to that of top-tier experts among the 8th-level extraordinary powerhouses, such as the Ziwei Emperor of the Destruction God Clan, the Gouchen Emperor, and the Yangmei Ancestor of the Demon Clan.
And it was precisely because of this that the Heavenly Court finally gained control of a vast world that was completely under its control.
Correspondingly, the Pantheon also cultivated a vast world in the same way.
However, unlike the method used by the Heavenly Court, the Pantheon did not allow that powerful individual who specifically cultivated this cultivation system to nurture his own world.
Instead, he had the Pantheon's ruler, the Wind Flame God King, cultivate this secret technique, and then nurtured the Wind Flame God King's divine kingdom to the level of a great world.
If it weren't for the fact that the divine kingdom of the Wind Flame God King was far superior to the Middle Thousand Worlds and even comparable to the ordinary Great Thousand Worlds, it would be a different story.
Whether the Pantheon, with its accumulated power over countless years, can successfully elevate an ordinary middle-thousand world to the level of a great-thousand world remains to be seen.
It could even be said that, in the entire Tianyuan Sacred Realm today, apart from the Heavenly Court and the Pantheon, no other force can rely on its own resources to cultivate a middle-thousand world to the level of a great-thousand world.
Even the Demon Court, which is now on par with the Heavenly Court and the Pantheon, and even surpasses them in prestige, is no exception.
After all, even with the existence of Emperor Donghuang Taiyi, a powerful ninth-level Grand Luo cultivator, the Demon Court's existence was still far too short compared to the Heavenly Court and the Pantheon.
The Demon Court, which has only been established for less than two eras, still has a huge gap in its foundation compared to the Heavenly Court and the Pantheon, which have existed for countless eras.
Even though the Pantheon has made tremendous progress in the last few decades, its foundation still lags behind that of the Heavenly Court.
It was precisely this enormous consumption of resources that prevented the system created by the Supreme Dao Ancestor from becoming popular in the Tianyuan Sacred Realm. Instead, it was merely a secret technique practiced by some powerful individuals from other cultivation systems in order to enhance their strength.
However, in return for the resource consumption, if a being chooses to cultivate this system, its strength will be unmatched among its peers until it reaches the 8th level of the Transcendent Realm.
Even after his cultivation reached the 8th level of the Extraordinary Realm, he was still among the top tier of Extraordinary Realm cultivators, second only to beings like the Jade Emperor, the Wind and Flame God King, the Moon God Wangshu, and the World Tree of the Elf Race—beings whose existence cannot be judged by common sense.
However, the resources consumed by this cultivation system are simply too enormous. The powerful figures in the Tianyuan Sacred Realm all choose to cultivate this secret method as a secondary practice, keeping the level of this secret method below their own cultivation level.
For example, the worlds possessed by the various eighth-level extraordinary experts in the Heavenly Origin Sacred Realm are basically the middle thousand worlds corresponding to the seventh level of extraordinary.
Of course, the worlds possessed by extraordinary eighth-tier powerhouses have all been pushed to the peak of the middle thousand worlds, and are already on the verge of advancing to the great thousand worlds, which is incomparable to ordinary middle thousand worlds.
After mastering this secret technique, even in the Middle Thousand Worlds, which corresponds to the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm, it can still significantly boost the strength of eighth-level Transcendent Realm experts.
In addition, they possess a true spirit that can be entrusted to their own world to better comprehend the Dao, and can use their own world to better cultivate their descendants and their own forces, among countless other benefits.
It was precisely because of the various benefits of possessing a world entirely of one's own that this secret technique became popular in the Tianyuan Sacred Realm.
Of course, apart from a very few exceptional geniuses, all beings in the Heavenly Origin Sacred Realm who cultivate this secret technique, like those extraordinary eighth-tier experts, suppress the level of this secret technique to one level lower than their own cultivation level.

Chapter 218 Difficult Problem
The secret method for creating a world, improved by the Supreme Dao Ancestor, can only truly reveal its power after reaching the corresponding fifth level of the Transcendent Realm and creating a small world.
Before successfully creating a small world, all the resources needed to nurture the world seed using the secret method improved by the Supreme Dao Ancestor had to be obtained from within the Heavenly Origin Sacred Realm.
Although the resource requirements of a single World Seed are negligible for the current massive Tianyuan Sacred Realm, if the number of beings cultivating this secret technique is endless, it will inevitably place a tremendous burden on the Tianyuan Sacred Realm.
In response to this, the plan was formulated after extremely careful consideration within the secret method improved by the Supreme Dao Ancestor.
After the powerful beings in the Heavenly Origin Sacred Realm cultivated their own worlds to the level of small worlds.
Their small worlds would no longer need to be attached to the Tianyuan Sacred Realm, but would be upgraded and integrated into the small myriad worlds that revolve around the Tianyuan Sacred Realm, becoming completely independent worlds.
This brand-new world possesses the same function as the Boundless World within the Tianyuan Sacred Realm's affiliated world cluster: it can draw upon the power of nothingness from the void and slowly transform it into incomparably refined source power.
This portion of the power of nothingness, besides supplying the growth of this world itself, will also be partially drawn away by the Heavenly Origin Sacred Realm.
Those who possess this world can also extract the accumulated source power from it for other purposes.
Of course, very few powerful individuals would do this, because it would greatly slow down the future advancement and development of their world.
And for each small world that is successfully born, the source power accumulated by that small world over the long years of its operation will bring thousands or even tens of thousands of times the reward to the Tianyuan Sacred Realm.
The source energy produced by just one small world-level world is enough to support more than ten thousand powerful cultivators who practice this secret technique, providing them with the resources they need in the early stages of their cultivation.
The Wind and Flame God King of the Pantheon and the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Court both created their own Great Thousand Worlds using the secret method of the Supreme Dao Ancestor.
One of them alone completely compensated for the resource depletion caused to the Tianyuan Sacred Realm by all the powerful cultivators of this secret technique.
Furthermore, the only beings at or below the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm who would consume resources from the Heavenly Origin Sacred Realm by practicing this secret technique are those who are transcendent.
After offsetting the losses caused to the Tianyuan Sacred Realm by those living beings, both the Great Thousand World of the Wind Flame God King and the Great Thousand World possessed by the Heavenly Court would bring a huge amount of source power to the Tianyuan Sacred Realm as benefits every moment.
It was precisely because the secret method improved by the Supreme Dao Ancestor would bring enormous rewards to the Tianyuan Sacred Realm that Yuan Hao tacitly allowed this secret method to spread within the Tianyuan Sacred Realm.
