However, as the Daoist had said, the Life-Stealing Fruit should not grow here.
Because the Life-Stealing Fruit was too cruel, it required the extraction of all life force, blood-essence, and Power of Laws from within living beings, leaving no chance for survival, not even allowing the soul to reincarnate, which is why it was considered a Forbidden Technique among Forbidden Techniques.
Moreover, the Life-Stealing Fruit could mature every hundred years, unlike the Heavenly Connecting Lotus, which needed thousands of years to slowly nurture its flowers and leaves!
This was also the reason why the Demon Path was able to rapidly produce so many formidable cultivators during the Ancient Great Tribulation. Had the Righteous Path not reacted strongly, decimating the Demon Sects that extensively planted the Life-Stealing Fruit, who knows how many cultivators would have met their doom.
