Chapter 1765 : Primordial Beasts of Chaos

"Clang—" [the sharp, resonant sound of metal striking metal]

In that instant, Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation] sword energies crisscrossed and intertwined, cleaving through the vast Chaos and plunging into the Within the Chaos Lair [the interior of a nest or den formed within the primordial Chaos].

Yet, at that very moment, a furious roar erupted from the Chaos Lair, followed by several colossal beasts, shaped like wolf-mastiffs with three heads and Nine-Tails [a mythical beast with nine tails, often associated with great power and longevity], bursting forth from the lair.

"Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff [a primordial beast born of Chaos, resembling a mastiff with three heads and nine tails]."

The moment Eldrin Chen laid eyes upon these colossal beasts, his brow furrowed slightly.

Ancient beasts capable of surviving within the Chaos were, at minimum, Primordial Unity Realm [a high cultivation realm representing the unity of one's primordial essence] Chaos Ancient Beast [ancient creatures native to the primordial Chaos]. The Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff dwelling within this Within the Chaos Lair were an even more ancient bloodline among the Chaos Ancient Beast.

They were born from the Chaos Rule [the fundamental laws governing the primordial Chaos], naturally feeding upon Great Thousand Universe [a collective term for the myriad worlds and realms]. Upon reaching adulthood, their cultivation rivaled that of a Celestial Immortal Great Power [a formidable being who has ascended to the Celestial Immortal realm].

"This will not be easy to handle."

Eldrin Chen murmured inwardly. With a flick of his sleeve, he recalled the Celestial Abyss Twin Swords [a pair of divine swords named 'Celestial Abyss'], noticing they were now stained with Chaos blood.

Among the pack of Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff, one of the beasts, at the lower tier of the Ninth Rank [a high rank within a cultivation hierarchy], bore a deep, bone-revealing sword wound—a clear sign it had sustained significant injury. Experience the full epic at www . audio-novel.com.

Though he had severely wounded a Chaos Ancient Beast with a single ambushing strike, Eldrin Chen felt a tremor of shock despite his apparent advantage.

"The might of my Sky-Severance Sword Union, combined with the element of surprise, should have slain even a Mid Celestial Immortal Realm expert caught off guard," he thought, his mind reeling. "Yet it failed to kill a mere Ninth RankLower Grade Chaos Ancient Beast?"

"ROAR—!"

As shock coursed through Eldrin Chen, the five Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff beasts howled and surged skyward, converging to encircle and slay him.

The lead and most powerful Nine-Tails Mastiff swung its claw in a devastating downward arc. Titanic force split the Vast and Boundless Chaos itself as the blow descended upon Eldrin Chen.

Intent on testing their strength, Eldrin Chen met the attack head-on. Empowered by the Primordial One Limitless Path Principle, he raised his palm to intercept. A cataclysmic force, akin to a Heavenly God's might, crashed down, forcing him back several paces.

The Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff fared worse, sent flying backward by the impact and churning up titanic waves within the Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation].

"Such formidable physical prowess,"

Having repelled the foe with a single move, Eldrin Chen used the momentum to break free from the encirclement, his expression turning grave.

Empowered by the Primordial One Limitless Rule, his palm strike had possessed force comparable to an attack from a Late Celestial Immortal Realm Great Power. Yet it had failed to inflict even a scratch upon the Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff. This realization left Eldrin Chen profoundly unsettled.

"Although this Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff possesses cultivation only comparable to the Mid Celestial Immortal Realm, its physical body's strength far surpasses that of its peers in the Celestial Immortal realm, enough to rival a fully developed Innate Physique."

Eldrin Chen murmured inwardly, a trace of his earlier underestimation fading from his gaze.

Within the Chaos, the magical power and Path Principle [profound laws and techniques derived from one's cultivation path] of ordinary Celestial Immortal Great Power are suppressed by the Primordial Chaos Energy, leaving only the physical body capable of unleashing its full might.

Conversely, Chaos Ancient Beast derive their entire combat prowess from their physical forms. Possessing a body comparable to the Late Celestial Immortal Realm while only at the Mid Celestial Immortal Realm, it is no wonder that Celestial Immortal Great Power venturing deep into the Chaos are no match for Chaos Ancient Beast of equivalent cultivation.

Fortunately, Eldrin Chen possessed a formidable foundation. His Primordial One Limitless Rule and boundless Path Fruit [the culmination and essence of one's cultivation path] remained unaffected by the suppression of Primordial Chaos Energy, allowing him to wield their full power.

Coupled with his Primordial One Indestructibility Body's ability to absorb and utilize Primordial Chaos Energy, Eldrin Chen's combat strength was not diminished but had instead subtly increased. Against these five Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff, he still held a measure of confidence.

"Chaos Ancient Beast possess formidable physical bodies, making a single decisive strike difficult. The best strategy is to defeat them one by one."

"Then from the weakest to the strongest, we shall eliminate them one by one!"

As this thought solidified, Eldrin Chen summoned the Chaos Heaven Halberd with a flick of his palm. He manifested his Chaos True Body, a titanic form spanning a million light-years, and plunged into a fierce battle with the Chaos Ancient Beast within the boundless Chaos.

This fierce struggle raged on, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of exchanges had passed.

It is undeniable that the Chaos Ancient Beast are truly extraordinary. Each of their strikes possesses the power to shatter Cosmos [the fundamental structure of reality]. An ordinary Seventh Layer of the Celestial Immortal Realm [a cultivator at the seventh level of the Celestial Immortal stage] would likely have perished long ago facing these five Chaos Ancient Beast.

Eldrin Chen pushed his Primordial One Indestructibility Body [a legendary physique of supreme resilience] to its absolute limit. His raw power was not inferior to that of the Chaos Ancient Beast, and further bolstered by the Path Principle [a profound law-based technique], he faced the five foes with effortless grace.

After more than eight thousand exchanges in this fierce battle, Eldrin Chen finally seized an opening. He unleashed the Primordial Unity Void Cosmos Sword Energy [a supreme sword technique born from the unity of primordial chaos], aiming it at the most grievously wounded Chaos Ancient Beast.

"*Clang—*"

The Half-Step Patriarch Level Divine Ability [a divine ability nearing the power of a Path Ancestor] Slaughter [a divine ability of pure annihilation], empowered by the Chaos Void Cosmos Sword Art [a supreme sword cultivation art], manifested its world-sundering, peerless divine might from the very first moment.

A cataclysmic wave of sword energy cleaved through the Vast and Boundless Chaos [the primordial, formless expanse before creation], and in its wake, severed the three heads of that Chaos Ancient Beast. Access the full story on audio‑novel.com.

"*Awooo—*"

The Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff [a primordial beast with nine tails and three wolf-like heads] let out a howl of agony. These ancient beasts lack a Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator]; once beheaded, not a shred of life remains. After thrashing for a few moments, it sank into the depths of Chaos [the primordial, undifferentiated state of existence].

Witnessing one of their kin slain, the remaining four Chaos Ancient Beast grew even more savage. They roared forth with heaven-rending, earth-sundering force, intent on utterly annihilating Eldrin Chen.

The leading Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff went berserk. Its three wolf heads spewed forth three terrifying forces: Thunderclap [a concussive blast of thunder], searing flame, and a tempest of razor-sharp gale-force winds.

"Hmmmm—" [a deep, resonant hum]

Facing such an assault, Eldrin Chen neither retreated nor evaded. He raised a palm, unleashing the Primordial One Energy True Aura [a supreme defensive technique that manifests a nigh-impenetrable barrier of primordial energy] to block the attack. Then, with a flick of his sleeve, the Celestial Abyss Twin Swords crossed and merged once more, unleashing the devastating power of the Sky-Severance Sword Union [a supreme sword art capable of cleaving the heavens themselves].

With a sharp *clang!*, the Celestial Abyss Twin Swords instantly tore through the Chaos [the primordial, formless state from which all things emerged], severing one of the heads from another Chaos Ancient Beast [a primordial monster born from the raw essence of Chaos] and inflicting a grievous, crippling wound.

Yet before Eldrin Chen could deliver the finishing blow, another Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff [a Chaos beast resembling a massive, nine-tailed mastiff] roared and charged, slamming into him with immense force. The impact sent Eldrin Chen hurtling sideways, causing him to miss the opportunity for a decisive kill.

"Troublesome."

Eldrin Chen steadied himself, feeling the Vitality [the life force and foundational energy within a cultivator's body] within him churn violently. Only then did he realize he had sustained significant internal injuries.

He swiftly consumed a dose of Innate Spiritual Water [a miraculous spiritual liquid that rapidly restores vitality and heals wounds], then circulated the Life Path Principle [a profound cultivation art focused on regeneration and the restoration of life force]. Instantly, he felt his injuries mend completely, as if they had never been.

Only then did he tear through the Chaos once more, rising to face the four roaring Chaos Ancient Beast. A sliver of certainty solidified in his heart.

With one Chaos Ancient Beast crippled, only four remained to besiege him. Eldrin Chen now held the confidence to force a kill through their combined assault.

In that fleeting moment, Eldrin Chen unleashed the Primordial One Energy True Aura once more. With an aura of unstoppable, fatalistic resolve, he charged toward the grievously wounded Chaos Ancient Beast, intent on ending its existence.

The Chaos Ancient Beast [a primordial creature born from the chaos of creation] recoiled in shock and terror. The other three Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff [a ferocious, nine-tailed mastiff-like beast of chaos] charged forth without regard for their own safety, desperate to block Eldrin Chen's path.

Yet, at this moment, Eldrin Chen was an unstoppable force.

"BOOM—"

In the blink of an eye, Eldrin Chen unleashed the Primordial One Energy Grasping Hand [a divine technique that manifests a giant hand of pure energy to grasp and suppress], its immense pressure instantly pinning the leader of the Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff pack. Immediately after, he struck with the Great Five Elements Primordial Solar Divine Thunder [a devastating thunderbolt infused with the power of the five elements and the primordial sun], sending the second Mid Celestial Immortal Realm [the middle stage of the Celestial Immortal cultivation realm] Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff hurtling backwards.

The remaining beast, at the Early Celestial Immortal Realm [the early stage of the Celestial Immortal cultivation realm], was far too slow. Eldrin Chen evaded it with ease, leaving it unable to hinder him in the slightest.

"Shatter!"

Free from the entanglement of the three Chaos Ancient Beast, Eldrin Chen hurled the Chaos Heaven Halberd [a halberd forged from chaotic materials, capable of sundering the heavens] with devastating force. It pierced straight through the heart of the grievously wounded Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff.

The Chaos Ancient Beast roared, thrashing in its death throes within the Chaos [the primordial, formless state from which all things emerged]. Its violent convulsions gradually subsided, until finally, an absolute silence fell.

"ROAR—"

Witnessing the second Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff fall in battle, the leader of the Chaos Nine-Tails Mastiff pack descended into an even more savage frenzy.

It roared ceaselessly within the Chaos [the primordial state of disorder preceding creation], its will now forged into a death-seeking resolve to engage Eldrin Chen in a final, decisive clash. This chapter is provided by audio-novel . com. Support the original.
