Instead of using bones, a rudimentary way with a limited amount of energy, why wouldn't I use the energy from that world instead?
Why wouldn't I channel the energy from that territory and make it work for me? Getting it integrated into my cultivation base would surely add many benefits to my cultivation.
Not to mention, my entire cultivation base was back there in that world.
However I was faced with a tiny problem… I shouldn't leave this world and head to another under any circumstances!
So could I do it without leaving? Was there really a way to do it? This was the question.
As I reached the core problem, I kept myself on the back of my chariot, sitting cross legged, and pondered about this.
The dark energy in that dark shadow world was just too pure and concentrated. Using it was the best meaning without doubt.
But the issue was how to use it without even going there?
One thing was to try and guide my cultivation base using any means from here. I thought about it and it might work. However when I recalled all the previous experiences I lived through and the information I learnt from the old man and Sith, I soon discarded such thoughts.
It wasn't just hard to do, as I needed to divert part of my consciousness to deal with this flow of energy, it was also impossible to do.
During all my previous attempts to rise up, I had to utilise energy from inside my body. I knew that I'd absorb energy by breathing from the outside world, or sucking it dry from the bones, but it had to go through my body first.
If not, then no matter how matching this energy was, no matter how pure and high grade it was, it wouldn't be accepted by my cultivation base and dantian out there.
'.',
After all, my cultivation base and dantian weren't considered an outsider. They were part of my body and flesh.
Hmm… That was quite tricky… Unless…
A thought started to take form in my mind. Even if it didn't hold a high chance of success at first, I kept thinking and refining it, getting more convinced with its value with more time passing.
This idea was simple. If I couldn't go there, then why wouldn't I invite that world here? I didn't intend for the world itself to come, but for the energy to pour here.
The idea came to mind when I recalled my grand gate techniques. I could use my second technique to open a portal to that world, and it was the same with the simple and grand merging techniques as well.
However, even when I used the grand form of merging technique, I never felt a single speck of energy gushing out from that portal at all!
The explanation was simple. This portal only allowed for one direction passage. So I should think about inventing another technique which would allow for a reverse flow of the energy from that world to mine.
However when I thought about it, wasn't it going to be a bit risky? What if the energy coming acted berserkly? Attacked my world here and crashed it down?
Even if the energy of this new world formed in the second layer was dense and pure, it was no way comparable to the much higher and purer dark energy from that world.
It was the origin world and universe after all. So it made quite sense its energy was going to be much higher and fiercer than any other form of energy.
Also the failure of me before to open a cultivation base without the help of a dark realm monster bone highlighted this point as well.
That was a clear hint about how the difference between the dark shadow energy and any other form of energy was.
In addition to that, just recalling the dispersion and disintegration of many monsters and foes I sent there to that world made me feel much heavier inside.

It wasn't that easy for any monster to survive there. It must be a grand beast with an insane amount of strength. Or else it would go insane or even die.
Thinking about that made me recall the dark realm monsters. They were initially normal monsters which got hacked and infected with the dark shadow energy in low concentration.
And that led to them turning into much fiercer and more vicious forms of life.
Damn! Just thinking about all that made me feel more despair rather than hope.
Wasn't there any hope for me to do it from here then or what?
"I need to calm myself down first," I knew it wasn't good to get panicked over this. My personal strength was something important, a major factor that'd decide either my win or loss over the upcoming two major quests.
But every problem must have a solution. This was something I grew used to since returning in time.
p Even for someone who held no class or power before, a problem that looked impossible to solve, I got a miraculous way to solve it.
So… Where were you, my magical solution?
Feeling stressed out and at loss of ideas, I decided to stop pondering about this problem for now. Trying to push oneself too hard against a wall wouldn't bring anything but headache and pain.
Sometimes, to find a solution, one had to look at another place and distract his troubled mind away from the problem itself.
Looking around, I was in the middle of my flight. The scenery here was indeed refreshing. This was a continent in the mid path towards my target.
It has a central lake, something that seemed fixed and common on this world's continents. And I got to know the reason behind this.
After all, my artefact created a lake in the middle of the place I used it at. Yet it grew into a sea, but it still repeated the same phenomenon over almost every single continent here.
