High above the unreachable ninth heaven, at a place even higher than the sky where Ye Chen was undergoing his tribulation, a world-shaking Immortal Thunder exploded, shaking the thirty-three layers of heaven with terrifying force.
It wasn't just the Tian Cang Domain; the entire Myriad Domains were utterly shocked, startling everyone.
Within those ancient holy lands, the old monsters who had been in secluded cultivation, and even some ancient giants who had slumbered for who knows how many years, were all awakened at this moment.
Because an Immortal Thunder had crossed the sky, a taboo had exploded. Such a phenomenon only occurred when the greatest hidden secrets between heaven and earth were truly touched.
Clearly, someone had now touched this domain once more.
Who could it be?
This was the doubt in many hearts.
Boom—
An Immortal Thunder of terror that reached the ultimate extreme of the mortal world appeared, even overshadowing Ye Chen's Tenth Heaven Supreme One Great Tribulation. It descended from the unreachable highest heavens, unimaginably thick, filling the entire vast firmament.
Before the Immortal Thunder even truly descended, the entire ancient great domain trembled, and countless living beings were so terrified they couldn't move.
The Chaos Dao was actually terrifying to this extent, to the point of descending such a world-ending great tribulation!
All of this was solely because Ye Chen was currently refining the Chaos Great Dao, touching the most fearsome taboo.
The entire sea of tribulation light and thunder almost vanished prematurely as that Immortal Thunder fell directly, striking at Ye Chen.
Let alone Ye Chen, even if a Heavenly King stepped forward, they would undoubtedly perish. This was a true Taboo Immortal Lightning, terrifying countless times over, capable of slaying immortals and killing gods.
At this moment, the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord appeared. Majestic and peerless, like an immortal deity, he stood in the void.
At this moment, his matchless prowess was truly displayed.
He spread his arms wide, his black hair dancing wildly. A massive Taiji diagram manifested around him—the Life-Death Taiji Diagram.
One side was filled with boundless, endless vitality, the growth of all things, representing the Dao of Life.
The other side held endless deathly energy, more like it was connected to the eighteen layers of hell of death, with deathly energy soaring to the heavens—the Dao of Death.
The two Daos of Life and Death mutually evolved, transforming into the Taiji Diagram, the very embodiment of the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord's Great Dao. It fully expanded, covering a region of ten thousand li.
Boom—
The Taboo Immortal Lightning fell, destroying heaven and earth. The void collapsed for who knows how many li, terrifying beyond description. People within a radius of millions of li could hear that dreadful roar.
Infinite light exploded, causing the entire vast great domain to tremble.
Yet, in the end, it was blocked by the Life-Death Taiji Diagram. The Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord stood firm in the heavens, displaying the supreme methods of a peerless great power.
But even someone as powerful as him wore a grave expression at this moment, which showed just how terrifying the previous Taboo Immortal Lightning had been.
Ye Chen, who was in the midst of refining chaos, transforming it into Chaos Blood, and evolving the ultimate chapter of chaos, was jolted awake, staring at all this in horror.
Although he knew that attempting to fully evolve the Chaos Dao would inevitably invite a fearsome great tribulation, this tribulation was even more terrifying by many times than the Tenth Heaven Supreme One Great Tribulation before him.
That single heavenly thunderbolt from just now would have been enough to utterly annihilate his form and spirit, erasing him from existence completely.
This had reached a level of terror where relying on the Saint Body's regeneration art would not be enough for revival; it could extinguish all vitality in an instant.
The Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord looked up towards the unreachable highest point of the heavens and murmured softly, "Chaos... is indeed the most extraordinary power between heaven and earth. Is it that the heavens do not permit it, or that Chaos itself does not permit it? Qian Yue might just be that key person. If he truly achieves Chaos in the future, perhaps the final war will hold a brand new hope!"
The next moment, the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord's words descended: "Qian Yue, focus all your efforts on evolving chaos. I will protect your Dao."
Immediately, the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord charged into the highest reaches of the nine-layered heavens. The Life-Death Taiji Diagram expanded to its absolute limit, the energies of life and death mutually evolving, actually managing to evolve wisps of ancient Chaos Qi—truly extraordinary.
Ye Chen took a deep breath, understanding the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord's intent. Naturally, he wouldn't refuse at this moment.
Across past and present lives, after preparing for so many years, now was the time.
"Refine the strongest Chaos!"
He issued a Dao shout that shook the world. Using his own saintly blood as the dragon-shaped curve of the Taiji diagram for balance, the Myriad Domains kingly blood and the alien race's kingly blood rapidly collided, continuously giving birth to threads of Chaos Blood, transforming into the true, ultimate Chaos Saint Blood.
These threads of Chaos Saint Blood were no longer golden and brilliant, but appeared gray and misty. Chaos Qi flowed within them, possessing the most primordial power—power that could truly open heaven and earth, or destroy heaven and earth.
The most primordial source power between heaven and earth.
However, the Chaos Blood was too powerful. The instant it flowed back into his body, even his indestructible golden body showed signs of cracking at this moment. Blood traces continuously seeped out; it could hardly withstand the Chaos Blood, also due to the Saint Body's rejection.
"Is this the most powerful Chaos force? No wonder even Saint Lords dare not touch it. Only Heavenly Kings can truly begin to master it," Ye Chen thought gravely. The Chaos Blood was too domineering, even more so than the Battle Sacred Body.
Because this was the most fundamental power, the Primordial Qi, the origin of everything. Naturally, it was extraordinary.
Of course, Ye Chen's Battle Sacred Body was equally the most terrifying, arguably the strongest Saint Body in history at the same realm. It quickly repaired his injuries and suppressed that domineering force.
Because his body contained far more Battle Saint Blood, and the Saint Body was equally domineering, not much inferior to Chaos.
When all the Chaos Blood entered his body, it was almost immediately suppressed by the saintly blood, unable to act tyrannically.
Simultaneously, the light of Ye Chen's primordial spirit shone as brilliantly as the sun. Various scripture profundities continuously interwove, with extraordinary phenomena appearing one after another as he pioneered the ultimate chapter scripture of the Chaos Dao—his own scripture.
Only at this moment, with a hundred scriptures tempered in the furnace, ten thousand Daos merging, and chaos evolving, was it easiest to evolve the Chaos scripture. Moreover, with the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord protecting his Dao, he could not miss this opportunity.
All the scriptures, divine abilities, spells, and everything else from past and present lives were undergoing evolution.
Without a doubt, this would be the most ultimate chapter, born solely for the Chaos Great Dao. Even under such an opportunity, completely evolving it was quite difficult, touching upon taboos, making it hard to truly pioneer.
At the same time, from the unreachable heavens, the most terrifying great tribulation descended once more.
Bolts of Immortal Thunder, each one vaster than mountains by who knows how many times, exploded in that unfathomably high zenith of the heavens, terrifying beyond measure. Every living being in the vast Tian Cang Domain—humans, demonic beasts, billions of creatures—heard it.
That kind of explosive roar, though not truly witnessed, undoubtedly ranked among the most dreadful tribulation thunders of the mortal world.
If they truly descended, likely more than half of this Tian Cang Domain would be destroyed.
