Ye Chen swept his gaze across the vast Chaos Pure Land, his eyes profound as if they could penetrate every inch of this sanctuary. As his mind immersed itself, his perception extended for hundreds of thousands of li centered on him, sensing many things.
His Chaos origin was also conducting its own perception, trying to sense which area had the most abundant Chaos Qi. He intended to use this to break through in one go, cross the final threshold, and achieve the realm of a Seventh Heaven Super Great Power.
After a few moments, Ye Chen finally sensed a region far beyond thirty thousand li.
There, it contained rich primordial Chaos Qi, far more abundant than the area where he first stepped out of the Chaos Pure Land.
Whoosh—
Ye Chen took a step and instantly shot like lightning towards that direction.
Not long after, Ye Chen arrived at that region. Right before his eyes, there was a vast mountain range, with peaks that soared into the heavens, accompanied by ethereal immortal mist swirling and surging.
In Ye Chen's perception, this mist-filled mountain range harbored extremely dense Chaos Qi.
Moreover, he sensed a mysterious place within that shone with dazzling radiant light, appearing even more intense than the primordial Chaos Qi. In his perception, it was like the sun in the starry sky, incredibly conspicuous.
What exactly was hidden within this region?
Beneath his black robe, Ye Chen's expression grew slightly more solemn. However, confident in his own skill and bold by nature, he ultimately entered.
Within the mist-filled mountain range, the area spanned a thousand li. Sunlight struggled to penetrate, lending the entire mountain range an air of gloom.
Yet, upon closer inspection, this mist was none other than primordial Chaos Qi, containing traces of the enduring Emperor Power from the Chaos Pure Land, making it exceptionally unique.
Ye Chen plunged entirely into it, heading straight for the deepest part until he arrived at a secluded valley nestled between the mountains. Here, the densest Chaos mist churned and surged, far surpassing other areas.
At the center of the valley, there was a peculiar cave, from which dazzling radiant light gushed forth in wisps, resembling divine patterns of the Great Dao born from heaven and earth, utterly mysterious.
As Ye Chen approached the cave, he actually felt a Primordial immortal aura of world creation. This place was like the earliest birthplace of the Chaos world when it first opened, containing powerful Primordial Immortal Light that continuously surged and permeated.
It was as if within it, embryonic worlds were being nurtured.
Wisps of Primordial Immortal Light flew out from within, then flew back into the immortal cave, repeating this cycle endlessly.
"Such a wondrous place actually exists, and it even contains Primordial Immortal Light."
Whoosh—
Ye Chen was pleasantly surprised. He raised his hand and captured a wisp of Primordial Immortal Light, drawing it into his body where it was devoured by his Chaos Small Universe.
The next moment, he was delighted to discover that after absorbing this wisp of Primordial Immortal Light, the evolution of his Chaos Small Universe had accelerated by a tiny fraction.
Though not much, it was enough to bring joy.
Because his Chaos Small Universe was different from others. After reaching the Great Power realm, others opened Inner Worlds, but he had skipped past the Inner World, even the origin world, directly opening an origin universe. This was an achievement that shook the ages; even Emperors or peerless immortals would not dare claim they could accomplish it, yet Ye Chen had done it.
Of course, this was related to his Chaos Great Dao and the Universe Creation he had inadvertently achieved back then, succeeding through a fortunate coincidence.
However, because the level of the Chaos Small Universe was too high—far superior to Inner Worlds and origin worlds, and also vastly more complex—it was still in an absolute embryonic state. It was even far smaller than the Inner Worlds of other Great Powers, but its potential was immense, with the chance to evolve into a true primordial Chaos Universe, standing aloof above the Chaos Sea.
Yet precisely because its level was too high and too complex, no one knew how long it would take for the Chaos Small Universe to be completely perfected and evolved to its ultimate state.
At the very least, from the successful creation of the Chaos Small Universe until now, its diameter had only grown from the initial ten zhang to just over a dozen zhang, which spoke volumes.
A single wisp of Primordial Immortal Light being able to accelerate its evolution speed slightly was enough to delight Ye Chen.
Moreover, the immortal cave naturally contained more than just one or two wisps of Primordial Immortal Light. As far as the eye could see, it harbored vast amounts of Primordial Immortal Light.
However, Ye Chen did not immediately set foot into the Primordial Immortal Cave. Instead, he sealed the Primordial Immortal Cave and sat cross-legged at the center of the valley. He activated the Chaos Chapter, devouring heaven and earth, absorbing all the Chaos mist within the surrounding thousand-li mountain range.
Hum—
On his body, the Ten Heavens divine nature halo manifested, completely condensed into one entity, blazing brilliantly. Layer upon layer, it seemed to connect to ten Chaos Universes, overflowing with resplendent immortal radiance that submerged his own form.
Then, Ye Chen's entire body shuddered. The Ten Heavens divine nature halo suddenly transformed, shifting from blazing, overflowing immortal radiance into a deep, unfathomable Black Hole that enveloped his entire person. From it erupted an unprecedented devouring power.
Boom—
The thousand-li expanse of the mountain range shrouded in Chaos mist began to tremble. The peaks that pierced the clouds also shook violently.
Visible to the naked eye, the gray Chaos mist that should have permeated the mountain range began to tremble. With a deafening roar, it rapidly surged towards Ye Chen at the valley's center.
Vast amounts of Chaos mist surged and churned, rushing from all directions towards the valley's center, pouring into that deep Black Hole, being continuously devoured.
Behind the Black Hole, clusters of blazing Chaos Dao Fire appeared, accompanied by threads of Chaos Source Fire. They rapidly incinerated the Chaos liquid that had been condensed into substance by the Black Hole's devouring, burning away impurities mixed within, refining it into even greater purity.
Then, it transformed into pure Chaos Divine Power, which Ye Chen immediately absorbed into his body.
Simultaneously, the stagnant aura within Ye Chen's body began to slowly rise once more, steadily advancing towards the Seventh Heaven.
At this rate, it probably wouldn't take more than a few days for Ye Chen to completely cross over and truly step into the realm of a Seventh Heaven Super Great Power.
"Hmm, this is a bit slow. There are more important matters to attend to; I cannot delay."
Boom—
Ye Chen intentionally controlled the Black Hole formed from the Ten Heavens divine nature halo to accelerate its speed. It resembled an infinitely rotating Black Hole, causing the thousand-li mountain range to tremble even more violently, with rumbling sounds ceaselessly echoing.
Even more massive and refined Chaos Divine Power poured into Ye Chen's body. What appeared to be Chaos liquid the thickness of an arm—each drop condensed from who knows how much primordial Chaos Qi—continuously flowed into his body.
If it were anyone else, let alone someone at the peak of the Sixth Heaven, even a Great Power at the early or middle stages of the Ninth Heaven would not dare to devour such terrifying primordial Chaos Qi so relentlessly, refining it into their body.
Only Ye Chen dared to do this, because his Chaos Saint Body was the most perfect physique surpassing the Great Power realm. Its sturdiness and indestructibility could be compared to a Nine Tribulations Divine King, even surpassing some Nine Tribulations existences.
This was Ye Chen's true capital.
As even more powerful Chaos Divine Power was refined into his body, Ye Chen's aura climbed steadily, rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.
