Inside the floating palace, Zhou Fan extended his divine sense and looked around the solar system. Despite its size, it seemed as if the entire thing was in a state of calm. There were no wars and very few uncontrolled battles. If it was a bit smaller, Zhou Fan guessed that there may not even be a single death within the solar system.
Looking away from everyone else, Zhou Fan paid attention to the dragon king. Since they had separated, he had reached his home. As Zhou Fan looked at him, he took the lid off of the potion and poured it down his throat while in humanoid form.
As soon as he did, a major change was felt in his body. His entire genetic structure was transforming, changing nothing but his ability to reproduce.
After being bathed in a golden light for five minutes, the transformation stopped. After it, the dragon king seemed exactly the same as he was before he took the potion, but he felt much different.
As soon as he felt the feeling, he ran outside and found his wife. She was a giant butterfly supreme beast, but she too had a humanoid form. Although she didn't have the ability to reproduce, the dragon king's new genetics would bypass that problem.
It was at that point that Zhou Fan stopped watching. By the time he left seclusion, he assumed that the entire supreme beast race would have changed their ways. After all, the dragon king's genes would pass on to his children, giving them the ability to reproduce. After enough time, only the few supreme beasts that were naturally born by the world would be unable to reproduce.
The change would result in the overall quality of the supreme beast race going down, but the numbers would make up for it. It wasn't absolute that the supreme beasts born from the world would be more talented, but they would be so on average compared to the supreme beasts born by other supreme beasts.
The ability to reproduce would also change the very structure of the supreme beast race. There would likely be royal families or nobles, along with commoners and supreme beasts that only had a portion of their bloodline.
However, the increased number of supreme beasts would also give rise to new versions of bloodlines. Therefore, there would no longer only be a single dragon bloodline, but many types like fire dragons, water dragons, earth dragons, and lightning dragons, alongside weirder versions like golden flame dragons or something similar.
Luckily, it would give the Zhou solar system a much needed increase in different races. Zhou Fan even estimated that the supreme beast lands would eventually break up and things such as the dragon lands and the giant shark lands would appear. However, that would be long in the future when the Zhou solar system had changed drastically.
Now that everyone was doing their own thing, Zhou Fan was ready to do some things that he personally wanted to do. Firstly, he wanted to create a new base for himself. Although the floating palace was great, he wanted something newer. After all, it was still made out of materials from when the Zhou World was just terraformed. Despite that, Zhou Fan had never really considered upgrading it because nobody was strong enough to do anything, especially with the formations and arrays around the palace.
Even now, nobody was strong enough to do anything, but Zhou Fan still wanted a better place. Perhaps he could make it more comfortable or nicer looking, but he wouldn't completely abandon the floating palace, however, he would still change his main residence.
After thinking for a while, Zhou Fan decided that the best place would be inside the sun. More specifically, the center. Firstly, it would never be reached since the temperature of the sun increased everytime it expanded. In its current state, even a tenth level space shattering cultivator would be reduced to ashes before they got to the center.
As for a first level lesser dao creation realm cultivator, they would struggle, but would likely make it. Even if they did make it that far, they would never be able to actually enter Zhou Fans building. It would be covered in arrays at the strength of the tenth level of the lesser dao creation realm since Zhou Fan was laying them.
As for what the building would be made of, Zhou Fan would grab some materials from the center of the Zhou World, which were surprisingly still only at the tenth level of space shattering, and upgrade them to become materials at the lesser dao creation realm.
Then, he would shape them to become the building he wanted, which was a nine story pagoda. It would be red, gold and black, and be built using the basic style of a pagoda.
From the bottom to the top floor, the floor space would get smaller. Each of the floors would be enclosed beside the top floor which would have four openings and could be used as a sightseeing area, although there wasn't much to see in the sun. Luckily, Zhou Fan could easily see through it and look at the entire Zhou solar system.
After he finished planning, Zhou Fan teleported to the Zhou worlds center and took most of the materials from it since the pagoda would be fairly huge. After he did that, he used some of his Qi in order to increase the materials strength. The process only took a few minutes and Zhou Fan was ready to construct.
After teleporting to the center of the sun, Zhou Fan moved the materials to their positions with Qi and permanently colored them red and black, with a little bit of gold, mostly in the form of dragon ornaments.
Once he finished, he backed up and looked at his creation. It was definitely the greatest and most powerful building ever created. Now that he was done with constructing it, he needed to lay some formations and arrays around it.
Zhou Fan started with a defensive array. He covered his entire pagoda and the space a hundred miles away from it with the array.
Since Zhou Fan layed it with all of his strength, it had the ability to block attacks from a tenth level lesser dao creation realm cultivator.
Next, Zhou Fan layed out an attack array. Like the defensive array, it covered the entire pagoda and the space within a hundred miles of it. Also like the defensive array, Zhou Fan layed it with all his power, giving it the ability to injure tenth level lesser dao creation realm cultivators.
After the attack and defense arrays, Zhou Fan layed out a couple more arrays that provided the pagoda with things such as a air conditioned interior and a mystical feeling.
After he had laid out all of the arrays, Zhou Fan activated them. Instantly, a barrier appeared that covered the entire pagoda and the space within a hundred miles of it.
The barrier was caused by the defense array, but the attack array took a different form. Inside the barrier, two golden dragons that Zhou Fan had used as ornaments seemed to come to life and circled the pagoda.
From afar, the appearance of the red and black pagoda being circled by two giant golden Xiaolong type dragons was beautiful and domineering.
Even if someone managed to reach the center of the sun without Zhou Fan noticing, they may not have the guts to try and enter it with its new appearance.
After proudly looking at the pagoda for a while, Zhou Fan went inside and sat on the top floor, overlooking the entire solar system. As expected, nothing important or interesting was happening.
Zhou Fan wasn't sure what else he could do before entering seclusion. He had been trying to delay the seclusion as much as possible since he didn't have any idea how long it would take him to break through, and he absolutely wouldn't stop cultivating until he broke through.
Although he wasn't sure, Zhou Fan guessed that it would be longer than 50,000 years, and perhaps even longer than 100,000. Although he could easily deal with any threats or happenings within the solar system, Zhou Fan didn't want to stop cultivating until he reached the new realm, even if that meant letting everything he had created be destroyed.
Therefore, if a black hole were to suddenly appear in the center of the solar system and start devouring, Zhou Fan wouldn't stop cultivating.
Unless he actually looked outside of the barrier, he wouldn't even notice that such a thing was happening due to the defensive barriers strength. In fact, even if the sun disappeared he wouldn't notice it due to the array regulating temperature.
Overall, Zhou Fan didn't know of a single thing that could possibly break through his barrier and disturb him, and he wouldn't be coming out of seclusion early unless something did destroy his barrier.
After making himself comfortable, Zhou Fan closed his eyes and started to cultivate.
-------------------
10,000 years later, Zhou Fan felt the separate space within him start to grow. From being the size of a small dot, it quickly expanded to become the size of a fingertip.
-------------------
Another 10,000 years later, the separate space within Zhou Fan had expanded and reached the size of three fingertips.
-------------------
Another 10,000 years later, the separate space had grown to become the size of a child's fist.
---------------------
After 20,000 more years passed, Zhou Fan felt the separate space move. It, which had reached the size of two palms, started to wriggle around within him.
Technically, the separate space wasn't within him, but within his soul, along with his core.
The separate space didn't really look like a separate space, but more like a ball of golden light. Suddenly, the ball of golden light that was the separate space started to have ripples within it like it was made of water.
Then, the separate space dispersed into specks of golden light, before quickly reforming into a thread of golden light.
Suddenly, that thread of golden light moved around the space of his soul and wrapped around his core.
Seconds after that, it turned from a golden light to gray light, taking on a similar shade as his core and his hair.
Clearly, the separate space had been influenced by his Chaos Qi. After a moment, the core within him started to change. Like the thread, it turned into a sphere of gray light, unlike its previous self which was just a gray that gave off no light.
Eventually, the difference between the core and the thread wrapped around it disappeared. From that moment, his core and the thread had turned into a ball of gray light that was his separate space.
However, Zhou Fan hadn't broken through. He could feel that he was at most halfway done with his cultivation, so he continued on.
------------------------------
After 10,000 years, Zhou Fan was able to tell why he hadn't broken through. His separate space hadn't really finished growing. Although it barely increased in size, the separate space had started to grow stronger and denser.
Despite his strength, Zhou Fan had no idea what the separate space was changing into. However, he was able to tell that it was affected by both his affinity and his talent.
Therefore, he could assume that if others ever broke into the realm, their separate space would take the color or colors of their affinity and be stronger or weaker depending on their talent.
Overall, Zhou Fan had no idea what was happening.
----------------------
Another 10,000 years later the separate space continued growing stronger without delay or interruption. Besides that, nothing else was happening.
-------------------------------
10,000 years later the separate space didn't stop becoming stronger and nothing new had happened.
-------------------------------
After another 10,000 years, nothing had changed.
-------------------------
Despite his best guesses, Zhou Fan's separate space did not stop growing in power after another 10,000 years had passed, reaching a total of 100,000 years since he had entered seclusion.
Although he seemed like he didn't care about the solar system earlier, he was hoping that nothing bad had happened after 100,000 years.
