Her face darkened as she turned to Garion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seriously? We ran for days through monster, poison air, and nearly died.... for a pile of rocks?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion just smiled, turning back to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not. I’ve got the feeling that this place is important. Just wait for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his mind, he shouted silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’System, tell me what’s here. Dahlia’s already in a very bad mood. Please don’t waste my time anymore.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if answering, a faint arrow appeared above him, pointing at a half-buried spot near one of the fallen pillars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion raised a brow as he went to that spot, knelt, and picked something up from the ground, cleaning it a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes widened as it was a smooth, round black object about the size of a man’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its surface gleamed faintly under the dim light, like polished stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also heavier than it looked and cold to the touch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dahlia, have you ever seen something like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the moment Dahlia looked at the item, her breath caught. Her face paled instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No... How can this be? How can this be here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion blinked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? You know what this is?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia swallowed hard, her body stiff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes. This thing... It’s called the Origin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion tilted his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Origin? That’s a pretty simple name.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia suddenly snapped at him, her voice sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you know, Master! The simpler the name, the more terrifying it is!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his brow, a little surprise at her tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Terrifying? Why call it ’Origin’ then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia’s fists tightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because it’s the source.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion frowned, not knowing what Dahlia meant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Source? Source of what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She met his eyes, her eyes filled with a mix of fear and awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The source of mana.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion froze, turning back toward the black sphere in his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait... What? You mean this thing actually produces mana?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia nodded firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes. Origin is a special item that turns the land around it into a mana heaven.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia rubbed her forehead as she explained it more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With it, even barren land can become rich in energy, and that’s why it’s so scary and amazing at the same time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia leaned in, narrowing her eyes at Garion, reminding him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Basically, entire sects, great clans, and empires are built on one of these. Without an Origin, they cannot rise to the top.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion whistled low, staring at the sphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn... and here I thought it was just a fancy black ball. I never guessed it was this important.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia nodded again, her face still tight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is, but...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She studied the black sphere more carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I never saw one described as dark in colour. They’re usually pure white or glowing blue. This one...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused, biting her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion’s eyes widened as he held the sphere tighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that’s it. This must be the reason why they called this place Demon Gate Island. The demonic mana might as well come from this thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia nodded slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes... What you said might be true, Master. Dark Origin, the source of black demonic mana.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion then lowered the sphere and turned to her with a curious look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But... how do you know about all this, Dahlia? You’re awfully knowledgeable about this thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia stiffened. For a moment, her lips parted, but no words came out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she forced a weak smile and rolled her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha... well... it’s just... I read it in a book once. That’s all. It said Origin is the most important item to have if you want to form a true super sect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion studied her for a moment, then nodded slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia let out a tiny breath of relief, shoulders slumping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Not now. I can’t tell him the truth yet.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion tapped the sphere with his knuckle, grinning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, book or not, we’ve got one now. Looks like God Gym just got an upgrade.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia frowned, crossing her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, you really think you can use something this dangerous?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion laughed, holding the Origin up like a trophy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course. Pain, danger, and whatever. You know my rule...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia groaned, already knowing the answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No pain, no gain...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion grinned wider.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at that very moment, a glowing screen appeared before his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Item Acquired: Black Origin]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[New Task Generated: Submit Black Origin to the System]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Completion Reward: New Gym]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion blinked, stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So this was the reason you dragged me here, huh? For this Black Origin?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No reply came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, the screen cleared, leaving only four glowing arrows pointing inward like an empty frame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it. Always so cryptic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a deep breath, Garion just put the Black Origin onto the screen ,and in an instant, it vanished into thin air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia gasped, stepping forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master! What did you do? How can the Origin just disappear like that?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion waved his hand casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Relax. This is how I used it. Your master is different from those elders.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Dahlia could argue, another screen appeared in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Task Accomplished]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Generating New Gym]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then suddenly the ground beneath them began to rumble, shaking the things around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion’s eyes narrowed. His smile faded into something more serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t tell me...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tremor grew violent, and without wasting a second, Garion sprinted over to Dahlia and put her on her shoulder before running.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He dashed out of the ruins, just as the floor behind them caved in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia, still catching her breath, not knowing what had happened, asked Garion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, what the hell is happening?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion put her down, steadying her, then glanced back at the ruins that were slowly crumbling away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ll know soon enough. For now, let’s put some distance between us and this place. Whatever’s coming... I don’t want us buried with it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia bit her lip but nodded quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Together, they hurried away from the ruins as the rumbling grew even louder behind them, the land reshaping itself into something entirely new.\u003C\u002Fp>",1006,"2026-06-06T11:12:18.542Z",1,"novelbin.me","28b8684720f9e2ae8212131c044ab18fe60c68ff773fd34c6df29f2eeea62d4f","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-401","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-63",613,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-cover.jpg"]
