Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space-Chapter 874 - 391: Samsara Holy Fruit and Immortal Crossing Island
Upon sighting the Primordial Immortal City, Lin Jing also spotted some records about it.
"The Primordial Immortal City, its founding era unknown, was the place of cultivation for the world’s first Cultivator to ascend before his ascension. After he ascended, the people established this city in remembrance of him."
At the same time, the map within the Jade Slip also held illustrations and descriptions of this statue.
The statue in the Primordial Immortal City represents the very first Cultivator in the Cultivation World who ascended.
However, no one knows his true face, so the face of the statue is blank, having a form yet lacking features.

Though faceless, Lin Jing could still discern from the statue’s silhouette that this indeed was the same statue featured in the first of the three scenes he had previously seen.
And the map revealed herein, though slightly different from that first scene’s Immortal City, had no major differences overall.
It could thus be seen that the Immortal City featured in that first scene must be the Primordial Immortal City.
After identifying the Immortal City in the scene, Lin Jing then proceeded to study the entire map, noting the location of the Primordial Immortal City.
Having noted down the exact location of the Primordial Immortal City, Lin Jing withdrew his Divine Sense from the Jade Slip.
Now that he had determined the position of the Samsara Holy Fruit, Lin Jing had another issue to clarify...
The reason the Samsara Holy Fruit had turned the entire South Continent’s Domain of Ming into a ’Nether Realm’ was primarily due to the fruit’s power to devour Vitality.
Under the Samsara Holy Fruit’s consumption, not a single creature could survive within the Barren Forbidden Zone, let alone living beings, not even ordinary flowers, grass, or trees could live there.
Within the entirety of the Barren Forbidden Zone, nothing remained but desolation and ruin, except for the Yin Spirits trapped by the Samsara Holy Fruit, unable to escape.
To obtain the Samsara Holy Fruit, Lin Jing also needed to understand just how terrifying the fruit’s Vitality consuming power was.
Although the System Space could actively collect the Samsara Holy Fruit, to do so, he first had to approach the fruit to enable the System’s collection.
Lin Jing had previously heard that after the calamity unfolded in the South Continent’s Domain of Ming, many Cultivators went to investigate, but none could enter within a certain range of the Samsara Holy Fruit, due to its terrifying Vitality-devouring power.
In the end, continuous exploration became impossible, and everyone had to give up.
Next on Lin Jing’s agenda was to check the exploration records relating to the Barren Forbidden Zone.
...
...
After reviewing several Jade Slips, Lin Jing finally found what he had hoped for—the records of explorations into the Barren Forbidden Zone.
Greatly pleased, Lin Jing quickly began to examine them.
In these records, Lin Jing finally found the documented speed of the Samsara Holy Fruit’s devouring of Vitality.
These records were also calculated based on lifespan, the same method that Lin Jing previously used when venturing into the Barren Forbidden Zone.
Previously inside the Barren Forbidden Zone, Lin Jing estimated that having spent just over three months there, upon checking the System panel, he discovered he had consumed ten years of his lifespan.
The ratio, when calculated, was roughly 1:40.
To stay one day in the Barren Forbidden Zone was actually equivalent to the loss of forty days of Lifespan.
And in the documented Jade Slip, Lin Jing saw a more detailed record.
The rate at which Samsara Holy Fruit devoured Vitality differed with distance; the closer one was to the fruit, the faster the Vitality would be devoured.
Following the exploration of the Barren Forbidden Zone, those who had investigated gathered to specifically discuss this issue.
They then divided the entire Barren Forbidden Zone into three regions.
These three regions were the outer perimeter, the inner area, and the core.
The outer perimeter had the slowest Vitality-devouring rate, and the lowest lifespan consumption proportion, reaching at most 1:100.
For those who ventured into the exploration with tens of thousands of years of lifespan, they could tolerate this ratio.
However, upon entering the inner area, the proportion increased, ranging from 1:100 to 1:1000 within this region.
Staying a day inside this area could consume up to three years of lifespan.
Even those top-tier Cultivators who went to probe did not dare to squander their lifespan so; hence most stopped at this point.
Only a handful dared to continue probing further into the interior.
Finally, there was the core region’s Vitality consumption; within the core region, everyone could feel their Vitality being continuously drawn out of their bodies.
And the rate at which it was being drawn was incredibly terrifying.
Back then, those few remaining individuals endured their Vitality being devoured as they sought to delve deeper into the core region to continue their investigation.
It was a shame, however, that as they advanced further inward, the devouring force became increasingly terrifying, until, at a considerable distance from the Primordial Immortal City,
They could only catch a glimpse of the Samsara Holy Fruit from afar, realizing at this point that the Vitality-devouring force had become exceedingly frightening.
It had even reached a ratio of one to several hundred thousand.
Meaning, staying there for just one day would diminish their lifespan by a thousand years.
Even with such a devouring speed, they could only barely see the Samsara Holy Fruit, with its true distance still afar.
By this time, they realized that even with their Cultivation, they could not venture any further.
Even though the distance required only an instant to close,
Once they neared the Samsara Holy Fruit, they couldn’t endure the horrifying force of Vitality consumption.
