Chapter 2048 : Wings of Golden Pursuit

He informed Eldrin Chen that this True Spirit Divine Form [the ultimate spiritual manifestation of a cultivator's power] possessed myriad wondrous applications. It was a speed-type True Spirit Divine Form, capable of enhancing a Great Emperor Realm [the pinnacle realm of mortal cultivation] cultivator's speed and reaction time by approximately eighty percent.

Most crucially, once Immortal Great Emperor activated this True Spirit Divine Form, a pair of golden wings would manifest upon his back. With a single beat, he could traverse the Boundless Chaotic Desolate Sea [the vast, turbulent expanse of primal chaos], drastically increasing his Eruption [a burst of extreme speed] velocity.

"Such a swift True Spirit Divine Form," Eldrin Chen murmured, a flicker of envy crossing his features as he witnessed the True Spirit Divine Form perfected by Immortal Great Emperor.

He had to admit, the Light-Chasing Golden Wings were not only remarkably potent and effective but also possessed an undeniable grandeur and majesty.

One could envision it: Immortal Great Emperor, the Immortal Shield [an indestructible defensive artifact] in his left hand, the Crimson Peak Spear [a legendary spear of immense power] in his right, and the magnificent Light-Chasing Golden Wings unfurled behind him. In an instant, he could cross the Desolate Sea [a perilous sea of primal chaos], ready to engage in an epochal duel against a formidable foe.

Such a spectacle would be the very epitome of awe-inspiring authority and dazzling brilliance.

Originally, Immortal Great Emperor possessed formidable combat prowess. After his Ultimate Sublimation [a state of peak refinement and power], he could even contend with an Invincible Great Emperor [a Great Emperor of unparalleled, peerless strength]. However, he harbored one significant flaw.

His speed was insufficient. He could defeat a Great Emperor, yet struggle to prevent their escape. Conversely, when facing an overwhelmingly powerful adversary, he found it difficult to evade pursuit.

But mastering the Light-Chasing Golden Wings changed everything. Now, Immortal Great Emperor could come and go as he pleased with a mere beat of his wings. Once he unleashed his Eruption, who among his foes could hope to escape his relentless chase?

Even when facing a Sage Ascendant [a cultivator who has ascended to the penultimate stage of enlightenment], Immortal Great Emperor now possessed the capability to ensure his own survival. At the very least, while in the state of Ultimate Sublimation [a supreme technique that pushes one's physical and spiritual form to its absolute limit], the speed granted by his Light-Chasing Golden Wings [divine wings capable of outpacing light itself] was sufficient to outpace and evade pursuit from any Sage Ascendant.

"With enhancements to your strength, defense, and speed, your former weaknesses have been mended. Augmented by the power of two Innate Supreme Treasure [primordial artifacts of unparalleled power born from the cosmos itself], you have now truly ascended to become a peak-tier combatant among Great Emperor [cultivators who have attained supreme mastery over their chosen Dao]."

Eldrin Chen spoke slowly, a glimmer of genuine approval shining within his gaze.

Immortal Great Emperor offered a faint smile before replying, "Without your support, Your Excellency, I would never have been able to reach this height."

"Continue the refinement. Let me witness the might of the True Spirit Divine Form [the ultimate manifestation of one's spiritual essence and Dao] that follows Ultimate Sublimation."

Eldrin Chen spoke, a spark of curiosity igniting in his eyes.

Without another word, Immortal Great Emperor immediately resumed the process of refining the complete Dao-body of Refining Heaven Crimson Emperor.

Thus, time flowed on, an unmarked river. After an unknowable duration, he had completely seized the Dao Authority [the sovereign right and power over a specific aspect of the Great Dao] of Refining Heaven Crimson Emperor, successfully cultivating his fourth True Spirit Divine Form.

This new True Spirit Divine Form shifted and shimmered continuously, its essence coalescing at last into an ethereal, humanoid silhouette of profound truth.

"This is..." Eldrin Chen began, his voice tinged with unmistakable surprise.

"This True Spirit Divine Form is named—Extreme Dao Physique."

Immortal Great Emperor explained in detail, finally stating: "The Extreme Dao Physique can enhance all aspects of my physical combat prowess—speed, defense, strength, Life force, Insight force—by thirty percent."

"Moreover, this enhancement is an elevation of the body's fundamental limits. It will not diminish even after a breakthrough to the Sage Ascendant Realm."

"Furthermore, when the Extreme Dao Physique is actively channeled, my physical combat power can completely shatter its limits, doubling in potency. This, too, will not wane upon reaching the Sage Ascendant Realm."

At this point, Immortal Great Emperor added, "However, for all its might, the Extreme Dao Physique carries a significant flaw."

"After each activation concludes, I will fall into a state of profound weakness, with my physical combat power reduced by half. It requires a period of Restoration ten times longer than the duration of the battle fought under the Extreme Dao Physique's influence to recover."

"A thirty percent enhancement across all attributes, and under Eruption, it can even double them entirely?"

Having heard Immortal Great Emperor's explanation, a flicker of astonishment passed through Eldrin Chen's eyes.

Although the base enhancement was a mere thirty percent, it was a comprehensive amplification of every facet. This single attribute of the Extreme Dao Physique alone rivaled the effect of a top-tier True Spirit Divine Runes.

And when the Extreme Dao Physique was unleashed, the ultimate combat power of its Eruption state could only be described as heaven-defying.

If the mutual empowerment between the Nine True Spirit Divine Forms was merely an additive enhancement, then unleashing the Extreme Dao Physique represented a multiplicative leap in power.

It doubled one's overall combat prowess entirely, effectively amplifying the sum total of one's strength by a full additional fold.

"Even though a period of weakness follows its Eruption, this Extreme Dao Physique is truly worthy of being called a forbidden True Spirit Divine Form,"

"Your manifestation of the Extreme Dao Physique can already be considered a top-tier True Spirit Divine Form."

Eldrin Chen spoke slowly, his tone carrying a hint of envy.

Immortal Great Emperor smiled and replied, "Your Lordship's Yin-Yang Sacrificial Dao [a supreme art of sacrifice and balance between opposing cosmic forces] is likely no less formidable than my own Extreme Dao Physique."

Eldrin Chen offered a faint smile, choosing not to elaborate, and shifted the topic. "What path do you intend to walk from here?"

Immortal Great Emperor pondered for a moment before sighing. "The road ahead is shrouded in mist. I can only take one step at a time."

Seeing this, Eldrin Chen spoke with grave seriousness.

"Within the Vast Chaotic Void, there are ultimately only two methods to prove one's Dao and attain the Chaos Realm through physical cultivation alone."

"The first path," he began, "is to cultivate the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art [a legendary body refinement technique that requires dissolving one's cultivation nine times]. This method demands the immense price of dispersing one's cultivation power and starting anew nine times, all to continuously shatter one's inherent limits. Ultimately, this process attracts the True Spirit Imprint [a profound spiritual brand that awakens the body's ultimate potential], allowing one to cultivate the True Spirit Divine Form [a perfected divine physique born from the True Spirit Imprint]."

"The second path," he continued, "is to forge one's own Dao and Law, to carve out a unique Path of Fleshly Body Sanctification [a personalized cultivation method dedicated to achieving sainthood through physical perfection]."

"You did not cultivate the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art before your ascension to immortality. Without having laid the foundational groundwork of the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art, your path to Sainthood through the Flesh [the ultimate state of physical cultivation] now presents only two choices: either reincarnate and begin cultivation anew, or forge your own unique path forward."

Hearing this, the Immortal Great Emperor [a title for a supreme cultivator who has ascended to immortality and achieved emperor-level power] fell into deep contemplation.

He understood the logic in Eldrin Chen's words. Of the two paths to Sainthood through the Flesh, the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art required the first cycle of nine revolutions to be completed *before* one's cultivation foundation was fully solidified.

This initial cycle served as the bedrock. At each subsequent cultivation realm, one would repeatedly disperse their cultivated power and begin again, infusing the refined spiritual energy directly into their flesh. This relentless process pushed the physical body to continuously break its limits, eventually attracting the True Spirit Imprint.

Back then, the reason Heaven's Halberd Demon-Slaying True Lord [a formidable title for a powerful cultivator] had taken notice of Xander Chen was precisely because of his exceptional innate physical aptitude and his completion of that crucial first nine-revolution cycle before achieving immortality.

Later, when Xander Chen caught the eye of Black Abyss Great Emperor [a powerful and ancient emperor from the Nether Abyss], it was because he had successfully completed the nine revolutions at *every* single cultivation stage, demonstrating the immense latent potential to cultivate a True Spirit Foundation [the foundational state of a True Spirit physique].

Now, as a Great Emperor [a pinnacle realm of power among immortal cultivators] in his own right, the Immortal Great Emperor had long since missed the critical window to begin cultivating the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art. For him, pursuing that art now would necessitate the solitary, drastic path of reincarnation and starting over.

If he forsook the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art, his only remaining choice was to pioneer his own method, to walk the arduous road of creating a unique Path of Fleshly Body Sanctification.

It seems Ant Celestial Emperor [the ruler of the Chaos Ant race], Indestructible Elder, and Eldrin Chen all walked this very path.

They each forged their own unique method, the one most suited to themselves, for shattering their limits. Once they set foot upon the realm of a Chaos Celestial Emperor [a supreme ruler born from primordial chaos], their foundational depth and potential would likely be no weaker than those who attained the Celestial Emperor [the supreme sovereign realm] through the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art [a legendary cultivation method involving repeated cycles of dispersing and rebuilding one's power].

Immortal Great Emperor [an emperor who has attained immortality] also understood this point. After a moment of silent contemplation, he spoke, "If I were to choose, I too would have to walk the second path."

"It is only fitting."

Eldrin Chen nodded and retrieved several scrolls of ancient scripture from his sleeve.

They were the Art of Refining Self with Self [a profound method of self-perfection through internal alchemy], the Indestructible Heavenly Art [a technique to forge a body and spirit of unbreakable resilience], and the cultivation method of the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art. He presented all three scrolls to Immortal Great Emperor and said,

"These three ancient scriptures can each lead directly to the Chaos Realm [the primordial state of existence before order]. Though they may not perfectly align with your own path, studying them may illuminate the way forward for you."

Immortal Great Emperor accepted the three ancient scrolls. After studying them for a long while, a look of profound awe washed over his features.

The three ancient scriptures gifted by Eldrin Chen could each be called peerless classics of antiquity, every one containing mysteries so profound they seemed to defy the very heavens.

Among them, the cultivation method of the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art involved repeatedly dispersing one's cultivated power and rebuilding it from scratch, using this cyclical process to break through one's inherent limits.

The Refine Self Through Self Dao [a profound cultivation method focused on self-perfection] created by Eldrin Chen harnesses the power of the Root Origin Treasure [a primordial artifact of immense power] to continuously refine his physical body, thereby shattering its limits again and again.

The principle behind its cultivation is to refine oneself with oneself, using a force that surpasses the Chaos Indestructible Body [a legendary physique of near-unbreakable resilience] to compel the flesh to perpetually break through its boundaries.

As for the Indestructible Heavenly Art [a ruthless cultivation method of death and rebirth] practiced by Indestructible Elder, it is even more extreme and ruthless, truly the epitome of 'destruction preceding creation'.

This is because the Indestructible Heavenly Art is cultivated through endless tribulations. The profound mechanism of this art revolves around cultivation from a single drop of essence blood.

Before commencing the cultivation of the Indestructible Heavenly Art, Indestructible Elder would sequester a single drop of his essence blood, then utterly erase any trace of his soul imprint and spiritual signature from within it.

In other words, this drop of essence blood contained no True Spirit Imprint [the unique spiritual signature of a cultivator] or soul consciousness whatsoever, sustained in the world solely by a strand of divine nature from the Imperishable [a divine ability representing eternal endurance] ability.

After leaving behind this Indestructible Divinity [the divine essence of indestructibility], Indestructible Elder would then seek out his own demise, venturing forth to battle overwhelmingly powerful foes.

After each confrontation, Indestructible Elder would be completely annihilated, his Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] and physical body utterly extinguished.

Thereafter, he would rely on that faint, sequestered drop of essence blood to revive himself, drawing upon the Indestructible Divinity contained within it.

Should the revival fail, Indestructible Elder would meet his final, permanent end.

And once the revival succeeds, Indestructible Elder [a legendary figure known for surviving multiple deaths] is reborn from the ashes of calamity, thereby shattering his own limits, cultivating a more powerful Indestructible Divinity [an indestructible divine body], and attracting the infusion of True Spirit Imprint [the imprint of a primordial spirit, granting profound power].

According to Eldrin Chen's knowledge, Indestructible Elder was utterly annihilated nine times, yet successfully revived each time, ultimately stepping into the invincible Sage Ascendant Realm [a realm of cultivation surpassing even great emperors]. Even Chaos Celestial Emperor [the supreme ruler of chaos] would shake his head upon meeting him.

"The Indestructible Heavenly Art [a supreme cultivation method focused on unbreakable resilience], Refining the Self Through the Self's Dao [a path of cultivation centered on self-perfection], and the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art [a legendary technique involving nine cycles of rebirth and refinement]."

Immortal Great Emperor [a title for a supreme immortal emperor] spoke with a measured cadence, a touch of melancholy coloring his words as he said, "Each of these three peerless heavenly arts can lead directly to the realm of the Chaos Celestial Emperor."

"Compared to you all, my comprehension and innate talent fall far short. I have not even begun to explore the method of attaining the Dao through the physical body."

Eldrin Chen offered a faint smile and then spoke, "Within the Seven Domains of the Southern Abyss [a vast and perilous region of the cultivation world] where I reside, there exists a peerless powerhouse known as the Ant Celestial Emperor [a Celestial Emperor who rose from the humblest origins]."

"Legends say he walked the path of attaining the Dao through sheer force, using his unparalleled genius to cultivate nine supreme True Spirit Divine Form [divine forms embodying primordial spirits], pushing his own power beyond the limits of the Mortal Realm [the realm of mortals and lower cultivation], forcibly carving a path unseen in all of history."

"And his origins were merely those of an insignificant ant demon."

Eldrin Chen continued his narrative, concluding, "Humble origins are no disgrace. The true measure of a man lies in his ability to bend without breaking, to advance and retreat with wisdom."

"Do not waste energy comparing yourself to others. Contemplate deeply the path you wish to walk, then walk it to its very end. Take that final, definitive step of Ultimate Sublimation [the ultimate refinement and transcendence of one's being],"

Immortal Great Emperor [a title for a supreme cultivator who has attained immortality and great power] was momentarily stunned, feeling as if a great ceremonial bell had tolled and shattered within the depths of his mind.

After a long while, he slowly turned his gaze towards Eldrin Chen and finally nodded, saying, "Thank you for the guidance, Emperor Lord [a respectful title for a powerful ruler among cultivators]. I understand now."

"Only through the ceaseless Ultimate Sublimation [a profound process of refining one's being to its absolute peak] and the relentless surpassing of one's own limits can one forge their own path of Indestructible [a state of being utterly unbreakable and eternal]."

Speaking to this point, Immortal Great Emperor [a title for a supreme cultivator who has attained immortality and great power] adopted a solemn expression and declared, "I shall continuously explore the mysteries of Ultimate Sublimation [a profound process of refining one's being to its absolute peak], and even those of the Extreme Dao Physique [a legendary physical constitution representing the pinnacle of a specific Dao path], to create my own Indestructible [a state of being utterly unbreakable and eternal] Heavenly Art."

"Good. I shall await that day."

Eldrin Chen smiled, patted his shoulder, and said, "I hope that one day, your Indestructible [a state of being utterly unbreakable and eternal] Heavenly Art can stand shoulder to shoulder with the 'Ant Heavenly Scripture [a supreme cultivation scripture of the Ant Clan]' and the 'Indestructible Heavenly Art [a legendary cultivation art focused on achieving an unbreakable body]'."

"So that it may become another peerless scripture within the Vast Chaotic Sea [the immense and primordial sea of chaos that encompasses all realms], one that points directly toward the Chaos Realm [the ultimate realm of cultivation, representing unity with primordial chaos]."

Immortal Great Emperor [a title for a supreme cultivator who has attained immortality and great power] gave a slight nod, then slowly rose to his feet, saying nothing more.

After Immortal Great Emperor [a title for a supreme cultivator who has attained immortality and great power] made his breakthrough, Eldrin Chen once again resumed his tranquil life of secluded cultivation.

In the years that followed, the strength of the Great Desolate Ancient Realm [an ancient and powerful realm] began to steadily increase.

First, Dragon Turtle Emperor Lord broke through to the Eighth Layer of Primordial Unity Emperor Lord, and then a great multitude of Grand Luo Golden Immortal [the highest tier of immortal cultivators] began to return with astonishing speed.

Those Grand Luo Golden Immortal from the former Three Desolate Domains who had been slain by Eldrin Chen now began to return one after another to the Great Desolate Ancient Realm [the primordial homeland of the Desolate Tribe].

Before anyone realized it, the number of Grand Luo Golden Immortal within the Great Desolate Ancient Realm had surpassed a staggering thirty thousand.

Of these Grand Luo Golden Immortal, only around three thousand were surviving elders native to the Great Desolate Ancient Realm; the rest were Chaotic Fiendgod [primordial beings of chaos and desolation] who had been revived from the Desolate Tribe.

Given the current rate at which the Great Desolate Ancient Realm could absorb and refine Chaos Primordial Qi [the primal energy of chaos], sustaining such a vast number of Grand Luo Golden Immortal was simply not cost-effective.

Therefore, Eldrin Chen decisively undertook a complete restructuring of the Immortal Domain Grand Formation [a vast defensive and energy-gathering array]. This time, he carved out a full three hundred and sixty-five Top-Grade Immortal Domain [supreme cultivation paradises] and wove them into a new, vastly more powerful Immortal Domain Grand Formation.

The new formation's power had increased dramatically, now capable of suppressing a Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea [a boundless, turbulent expanse of chaotic energy] spanning an entire Desolate Journey [a measure of cosmic distance]—a distance that would take an early-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal one hundred thousand years to traverse by flight.

Suppressing such an immense tract of the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea greatly expanded the living space available for Grand Luo Golden Immortal within the Great Desolate Ancient Realm.

Eldrin Chen assigned a garrison of at least three Grand Luo Golden Immortal to guard each of the Top-Grade Immortal Domain.

Furthermore, he scattered the eight hundred Great Luo Nest [lesser cultivation domains] and thirty-six Primordial Unity Nest [intermediate cultivation domains] that Great Wilderness Emperor Sovereign and others had relocated, distributing them all within a single Desolate Journey radius of the Great Desolate Ancient Realm.

Furthermore, Eldrin Chen designated thirty-six Primordial Unity Dao Domain centered around the thirty-six Primordial Unity Nest, thereby establishing a Primordial Grand Formation and stationing the Chaotic Fiendgod [primordial beings of chaos and immense power] to guard them.

Thus, the defensive layers of the Great Desolate Ancient Realm became a triple-layered bastion.

Among these three layers, the outermost consists of over twenty thousand Chaotic Fiendgod jointly managing a Chaos Sea [a turbulent, primordial expanse of raw chaos] the size of a Desolate Journey [a vast unit of distance in the primordial chaos], commanded by the supreme Great Emperor known as Immortal Great Emperor.

Their primary duty in peacetime is to hunt within the Chaos Sea, offering thirty percent of their harvest as tribute to the Great Desolate Ancient Realm.

In times of necessity, these Chaos Nest [anchoring points of chaotic energy] will serve as formation cores to repel attacks from external powers.

According to Eldrin Chen's vision, a mere eight hundred Great Luo Nest is far from sufficient. In the future, their number must be increased to three thousand, or even thirty thousand would not be too many.

If necessary, they must even cultivate some Grand Luo [a supreme realm of cultivation] practitioners of the Immortal Dao, having them establish Immortal Domain [realms stabilized by immortal power] to anchor within the Chaos Sea, thereby further expanding the habitable space for their people.

The second defensive layer is composed of three hundred and sixty-five Top-Grade Immortal Domain, forming another Primordial Unity Level Formation.

In the future, as Spirit Root [the foundational spiritual potential of a being or land] and Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light [a primordial, unbreakable essence of spiritual radiance] gradually become more abundant, Eldrin Chen plans to expand this layer to its theoretical limit of three thousand domains.

At that time, with the Great Desolate Ancient Realm at its heart, the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea [the boundless, desolate ocean of primordial chaos] in all directions, above and below, for a distance of three Desolate Journey will be pacified and secured. This will increase the active space for the Grand Luo of the Great Desolate Ancient Realm by several dozenfold once more.

This second layer of the various Immortal Domain [a realm of higher existence where immortals reside] is centered around the Sword Abyss Immortal Palace [the celestial palace at the heart of the Sword Abyss], with the Sword Abyss Great Emperor serving as its supreme commander.

As for the core third layer of defense, it naturally revolves around the Great Desolate Ancient Realm [the primordial and desolate core realm], and requires no further elaboration.

"Once these three concentric layers of defense reach their ultimate potential, I fear even a Sage Ascendant [a cultivator who has ascended to the threshold of sagehood] would struggle to breach the outermost perimeter."

After finalizing the strategic layout, Eldrin Chen murmured inwardly.

By his estimation, once the two outer defensive layers are fully activated and formed into grand arrays, they could withstand the assaults of a Sage Ascendant under the command of the Immortal Desolation Emperor and the Sword Abyss Great Emperor.

Furthermore, the innermost core, the Great Desolate Ancient Realm, possesses the power to fuse the energies of the Immortal Domain Grand Formation [a vast, realm-spanning defensive formation] and the Chaos Nest [a primal nexus of chaotic energies] array, channeling their combined might entirely into Eldrin Chen. This would grant him combat prowess rivaling that of an invincible Sage Ascendant.

Should any foe bypass the two outer arrays and charge directly into the Great Desolate Ancient Realm, Eldrin Chen would possess the power to suppress even a peak-level Sage Ascendant by force.

"The advantages of a singular, unified command are indeed immense."

At this thought, a faint smile touched Eldrin Chen's lips.

One had to admit that the benefits of centralized authority were profound, allowing for the maximum consolidation of the entire strength of the Origin Domain [the foundational realm from which all things originate].

If it were within the Three Thousand Immortal Domains [the collective name for the three thousand major immortal realms], forget about rallying the Chaotic Fiendgod [a primordial race of powerful, often chaotic, demonic beings] to form an array; even within the Tri-Polar Primal Domain [a primordial domain where the Human, Demon, and Divine races coexist], the three races—Human, Demon, and Divine—cannot truly unite as one.

How could the Chaotic Fiendgod dwelling beyond the Three Thousand Immortal Domains possibly heed the decrees of the three great powers?

Moreover, within the Seven Domains of the Southern Abyss [a region comprising seven major domains in the southern part of the immortal world], the relationships between the various powers are intricately complex, with no single supreme figure capable of commanding everyone's allegiance.

Yet, within the Great Desolate Ancient Realm [an ancient and desolate primordial realm], a single command from Eldrin Chen is enough—which of the three thousand Grand Luo Golden Immortal [the pinnacle Golden Immortal realm within the Grand Luo hierarchy] or even the thirty thousand Chaotic Fiendgod would dare disobey his decree?

It must be understood that these Chaotic Fiendgod owe their Restoration [a divine ability to restore one's sanity and spiritual clarity] and regained consciousness to an immense debt of gratitude owed to Eldrin Chen.

Even if they were to prove ungrateful, their strength would be but a twig trying to bend an iron arm.

Among those Chaotic Fiendgod, the mightiest Immortal Great Emperor [a supreme title for an emperor-level immortal cultivator] serves as a Divine General under Eldrin Chen's banner.

Of the veteran Emperor Lord [a title for a ruler among emperor-level cultivators] from the former Great Wilderness Primordial Domain [the original, vast wilderness domain], the most powerful, the Sword Abyss Great Emperor, is also a devoted follower of Eldrin Chen. With no leader to rally a rebellion, what means could they possibly muster to resist?

It is under these circumstances that Eldrin Chen has been able to consolidate the power of several thousand Grand Luo Golden Immortal and tens of thousands of Chaotic Fiendgod, gathering all the forces surrounding the Great Desolate Ancient Realm into a unified whole.

Of course, there is another, utterly crucial reason why Eldrin Chen has succeeded in unifying the strength of the Great Desolate Ancient Realm.

That was the external environment of the Great Desolate Ancient Realm, far less stable and secure than the Seven Domains of the Southern Abyss.

Compared to the Seven Domains of the Southern Abyss, the Great Desolate Ancient Realm drifted alone within the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea. Due to the value of the Innate Supreme Treasure Spiritual Root, it faced the constant threat of invasion from external forces at any moment.

If they remained a disorganized rabble, then the arrival of just one or two covetous Sage Ascendant would be enough to utterly annihilate their homeland in a single night.

"The strong can manage without a single leader."

"But for the weak, to be scattered sand is to court their own demise."

As these thoughts flickered through Eldrin Chen's mind, he watched as numerous Grand Luo Golden Immortal and Primordial Chaos Emperor Monarch briefly ventured into the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea to retrieve and transport Chaos Nest back.

The process was not swift, yet the number of Chaos Nest gradually increased, surpassing one thousand before anyone realized it.

It was on this very day that an Elder with hair and beard white as snow crossed over from the depths of the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea and stepped into this expanse of Chaos Sea.

Having come from the deep reaches of the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea, he observed the Chaotic Fiendgod transporting the Chaos Nest, and a faint smile touched his lips as he spoke.

"Is this the location of the Great Wilderness Primordial Domain?"

"At last, this old one has found it."
