Chapter 2082 : Into the Primordial Desolation
Eldrin Chen gave a slight nod. The Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea [a vast, primordial expanse of chaotic and desolate cosmic waters] was treacherous and unpredictable, and the place he was about to explore was considered one of its most perilous forbidden zones.
Therefore, for this journey into the heart of the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea, he did not plan to venture alone. Besides inviting the Indestructible Elder, he had also asked the Black Abyss Great Emperor to accompany them.
With this thought, Eldrin Chen said with a smile, "Please wait a moment, Senior. Fellow Daoist Black Abyss should be arriving shortly."
No sooner had Eldrin Chen's words fallen than a majestic figure strode into the great hall from outside. It was none other than the Black Abyss Great Emperor, foremost among the Five Emperors of the Immortal Court [the celestial court governing immortals].
Upon entering, he promptly clasped his hands and said, "My apologies for being slightly delayed. I have kept you both waiting."
"It is of no consequence. We have only just arrived ourselves."
Eldrin Chen smiled and gestured for the Black Abyss Great Emperor to be seated. Then, with a sweep of his sleeve, he unfurled a Chaos Cosmographic Map [a celestial chart depicting the vast, chaotic cosmos].
The two men looked up at the map, their brows furrowing slightly.
The map displayed by Eldrin Chen was titled the 'Blazing Zenith Hundred Domains Cartographic Map'. It charted nearly one hundred surrounding Chaos Domain [vast regions of primordial chaos] and the territories of several hundred Origin Domain [the foundational realms from which all things originate].
This particular Cosmographic Map recorded the distant Chaos territories centered on the Blazing Central Primordial Domain, spanning over one hundred million Desolate Journey [a unit of measure for traversing the desolate, trackless voids between domains].
It must be understood that the distance of a single Desolate Journey [a vast cosmic distance unit] is the distance a Grand Luo Golden Immortal [the pinnacle of immortal cultivation] could traverse flying at full speed for one million years.
This immense span of a full Desolate Journey means that for a Grand Luo Golden Immortal to fly from the southernmost to the northernmost point, even with no obstacles whatsoever, would require the passage of over one million Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles spanning billions of years].
The Three Poles Origin Domain [a primordial realm] has existed since its inception for merely one or two million Kalpa Tribulation.
In other words, if a Grand Luo Golden Immortal had begun crossing the Blazing Zenith Hundred Domains at the very dawn of the Primordial Beginning Origin Domain [the realm of primordial creation], they would only now be barely emerging from its far side.
In truth, considering the perils of the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea [the boundless, chaotic sea between realms], not even a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, but likely even a Great Emperor [a sovereign ruler among cultivators], would find it exceedingly difficult to traverse such a vast and treacherous expanse.
Contemplating this, Indestructible Elder spoke: "This time, which of the forbidden lands within the Blazing Zenith Hundred Domains do you intend to explore?"
Eldrin Chen pondered for a moment before replying.
Within the Boundless Chaotic Desolate Sea [the infinite chaotic sea], treasures are virtually numberless, yet the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea is so vast and in constant, turbulent motion.
Thus, even though the entire Blazing Zenith Hundred Domains boasts several hundred Chaos Celestial Emperor [emperors born of chaos] and even several thousand beings of the Sage Ascendant [a realm just below the pinnacle] rank, their exploration of this Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea remains profoundly limited.
By Eldrin Chen's estimation, the area charted likely does not exceed one percent of its totality.
If Eldrin Chen wished to search for Innate Primordial Qi [the primordial spiritual energy present at the dawn of creation], or rare treasures of the Innate Supreme Treasure [a supreme grade of magical artifact born from the primordial chaos] level, then by journeying long within the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea [the boundless, chaotic expanse between ordered worlds], he would inevitably find some success.
Yet what they required was Chaos Primordial Qi [the most fundamental and potent spiritual energy of the primordial chaos], or Chaos Spiritual Treasure [a spiritual treasure forged from or containing the essence of primordial chaos]. Treasures of this caliber, even within the vastness of the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea, were exceedingly rare, peerless wonders of the cosmos.
If one were to search aimlessly, it was entirely possible to wander for thousands upon thousands of Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles spanning billions of years] without ever encountering Chaos Primordial Qi.
Therefore, this time, Eldrin Chen resolved to venture into certain forbidden lands, to increase the likelihood of obtaining such treasures.
These so-called forbidden lands were places of extreme peril within the Chaos [the formless, primordial state before creation].
Their origins were shrouded in mystery. Some were lairs of Chaos Tier [a realm of power comparable to the primordial chaos itself] behemoths, others possessed unique Chaos field domains, or held remnants of secret realms left over from the time of the Primordial Chaos Opening [the event that cleaved order from the primordial chaos, birthing the cosmos].
In short, such forbidden lands often harbored dangers capable of threatening even a Chaos Celestial Emperor [a supreme ruler whose power rivals the primordial chaos itself].
It was precisely for this reason that Eldrin Chen had invited Indestructible Elder and Black Abyss Great Emperor, to bolster their chances of success.
With this in mind, Eldrin Chen gazed at the map before him and spoke, "Within the Blazing Zenith's Hundred Domains, there are several dozen places that can be called forbidden lands."
"But our strength is insufficient. Those forbidden lands potent enough to severely injure or even suppress a Chaos Celestial Emperor are beyond our ability to explore."
With these words, Eldrin Chen finally selected three perilous sites and spoke, "It seems now that the places we can explore are limited to these three."
"The Celestial Furnace Grotto-Heaven [a legendary, self-contained paradise realm], the Profound Heaven Ruins [the remnants of a celestial domain], and the Primordial Chaos Fragment Realm [a shattered world born from primordial chaos]."
Looking at the three perilous sites Eldrin Chen had singled out, Indestructible Elder and Black Abyss Great Emperor exchanged a glance, then both showed expressions of understanding.
These three ancient sites were extraordinary in origin, each deliberately chosen by Eldrin Chen. They shared one common trait: none allowed entry to powerhouses above the Sage Ascendant [a supreme cultivation realm just below the Immortal Sage] realm.
Among the three great secret realms, the Celestial Furnace Grotto-Heaven possessed an ancient legacy. Legends spoke that over ten million Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles spanning billions of years] ago, it was the ancient hegemon of this Chaos Domain.
In that era, the Celestial Furnace Grotto-Heaven had a profound foundation, boasting six 'Dao-Union Supreme' [Supreme Beings who have unified with the Great Dao]. Moreover, these six Dao-Union Supreme were paramount powerhouses who had existed since the Primordial Chaos Opening [the mythical beginning of creation].
At that time, the power of the Celestial Furnace Grotto-Heaven far surpassed that of the present-day Blazing Zenith Lineage. It commanded six Dao-Union Supreme and hundreds of Chaos Celestial Emperor [Emperors born from primordial chaos]. In both might and profound accumulated heritage, it was renowned for shaking the Myriad Heavens [the countless celestial realms].
Yet, ten million Kalpa Tribulation ago, the master of the Celestial Furnace Grotto-Heaven stepped into the Half-Step Boundless realm, seeking to breach the legendary domain of the Boundless Sovereign [the Sovereign of Limitlessness].
No one knows what transpired. It is only known that at the most critical moment of his impending breakthrough, he suddenly perished, meeting a violent end.
Immediately thereafter, the vast Celestial Furnace Grotto-Heaven was utterly annihilated overnight. All six Dao-Union Supreme and over a hundred Chaos Celestial Emperor met their end, their Dao extinguished and their spirits dispersed.
Only the Celestial Furnace Grotto-Heaven [a legendary hidden realm of immense power], was exiled and concealed in advance by six Dao-Union Supreme [beings who have unified their cultivation with the fundamental Dao], transforming into a secret inheritance ground that appears only once every ten thousand Kalpa Tribulation [a cosmic cycle of immense destruction and rebirth].
The origins of the Profound Heaven Ruins [the shattered remains of a once-great celestial domain] are quite similar; this lineage was the second-generation hegemon that rose after the Celestial Furnace Grotto-Heaven.
At the zenith of its power, it possessed three Dao-Union Supreme, with the foremost, Profound Heaven Supreme, having cultivated to the pinnacle of the Supreme realm.
Although he never stepped into the half-step Primordial Beginning [Wuji] realm, legends say he had already cultivated his Soul Dao [the profound art of soul cultivation] to the Dao Union Realm.
Precisely because of this, Profound Heaven Supreme one day suddenly encountered a Tribulation [a catastrophic heavenly trial or calamity], and along with the entire Profound Heaven Ruins, was utterly annihilated in the span of a single breath.
The legacy he left behind, the Profound Heaven Ruins, also appears only once every ten thousand Kalpa Tribulation.
As for the final location, the Primordial Chaos Fragment Realm [a shattered ancient world born from chaos], legend holds it was formed from the remnants of a Primordial Chaos Secret Realm that shattered during the Primordial Chaos Opening [the primordial event that cleaved order from chaos].
However, this fragmented ancient world is filled with incomplete Dao patterns [the fundamental laws of reality] of the Primordial Chaos [the state of undifferentiated primal essence] level; even a Dao-Union Supreme would find it difficult to force their way inside.
Recalling the origins of these three perilous lands, Black Abyss Great Emperor could not help but speak: "You intend to explore these three great forbidden zones?"
Eldrin Chen nodded, then stated: "Both the Profound Heaven Ruins and the Celestial Furnace Grotto-Heaven appear only once every ten thousand Kalpa Tribulation."
"The last time the Xuantian Secret Realm manifested was nearly ten thousand Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles] ago."
"As for the Celestial Furnace Grotto-Heaven [a legendary hidden realm], its emergence is likely within the next few million Kalpa Tribulation."
"This represents a monumental Opportunity [a rare chance for profound advancement] for us. To miss it would be a true pity."
Indestructible Elder gave a slight nod before speaking. "Both of these secret realms carry immense Karma [the metaphysical weight of cause and effect]. Once we become entangled with them, it may invite great trouble in the future."
"However," he continued, "if one were to attain the realm of a Chaos Celestial Emperor, such Karma might become insignificant."
Eldrin Chen nodded gravely in agreement. "The forces behind these two ruins most likely perished due to the intervention of a Chaos Sovereign [a supreme ruler of primordial chaos]."
"If we truly seize this Opportunity, we will inevitably be stained by a measure of that Karma."
Even as he spoke these words, Eldrin Chen showed no trace of concern.
In this vast Chaos [the primordial, formless expanse], who could hope to advance further without accumulating some measure of Karma?
Eldrin Chen was certain that even if he avoided all Karma, the moment he attempted to breach the Chaos Sovereign realm, the existing Sovereigns themselves would rise to block his path.
After all, the first two overlords of the Blazing Zenith Hundred Domains met their demise precisely because, while attempting to break through to the Chaos Sovereign realm, they were ground to dust by a single or a host of indescribable, shadowy hands belonging to powerful enemies.
Seeing this, Black Abyss Great Emperor beside him also nodded and said, "As long as we still wish to advance further, we will inevitably become entangled in this Karma [the cosmic principle of cause and effect that binds all actions and their consequences]."
"In my view, we absolutely cannot miss the expeditions to the Celestial Furnace Grotto-Heaven and the Profound Heaven Secret Realm [a legendary, perilous hidden realm left behind from the Profound Heaven Chaos Domain].
Upon hearing this, Indestructible Elder also spoke up, "Since that is the case, then we should prepare to set out."
"The Profound Heaven Ruins will open in thirty Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles, each spanning billions of years]. Our time is already running short."
Eldrin Chen nodded in agreement. He immediately summoned Lyra Jiang and the others, entrusting the affairs of the Immortal Court to them. Then, together with Indestructible Elder and the rest, he departed for the Depths of Chaos.
The three of them left the Three Poles Origin Domain, traversed the Boundless Chaotic Desolate Sea directly, and headed towards the secret location where the Profound Heaven Ruins lay.
Along the journey, Eldrin Chen, reminded of the Profound Heaven Secret Realm, turned to Indestructible Elder and inquired, "Senior, you have trodden the Dao for several hundred thousand Kalpa Tribulation now. Surely you possess deeper knowledge of the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea."
Indestructible Elder pondered for a moment before replying, "Compared to the present Blazing Zenith Hundred Domains, the Profound Heaven Chaos Domain of the Ancient Era [a primordial epoch lost to time] was far more vast."
"Legends say that the Profound Heaven Chaos Domain of that time ruled over three hundred surrounding Chaos Domain, its territory vastly more expansive than the Blazing Zenith Hundred Domains of today."
"After the Profound Heaven Chaos Domain [a primordial and chaotic realm] was destroyed, the Blazing Zenith Lineage [the lineage descended from the Blazing Zenith Supreme] inherited only a portion of its former territories. The remaining lands were seized by newly ascended, or neighboring, Dao-Union Supreme [Supreme beings who have unified their understanding of the Dao]."
"However, from what I know, the combined strength of these territories is not significantly greater than that of the Blazing Zenith Hundred Domains."
As he spoke, Indestructible Elder paused briefly, then continued: "But legends speak of a place, nearly ten billion Desolate Journey [a vast unit of distance in the primordial chaos] away from the Blazing Zenith Hundred Domains."
"There lies an immensely grand and powerful force known as the Seven Domains Alliance. That is a truly ineffable and colossal power."
"The Seven Domains Alliance?"
Eldrin Chen was slightly taken aback, a flicker of curiosity rising within him.
Indestructible Elder nodded, his gaze turning solemn. "Legend holds that the Seven Domains Alliance is a coalition formed by seven Mid-Grade Chaos Domain [realms of intermediate stability and power within the primordial chaos]."
"The strength of these seven domains is formidable. Each one far surpasses the Blazing Central Primordial Domain [the core domain of the Blazing Zenith lineage] in power, possessing at least one being at the Half-Step Chaos Sovereign [a realm just half a step away from becoming a true Sovereign of Chaos] level overseeing it."
Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen felt a tremor in his heart. He couldn't help but ask, "Each domain has a Half-Step Chaos Sovereign? Wouldn't that mean there are at least seven such beings?"
Indestructible Elder affirmed with a nod, then sighed. "The Seven Domains Alliance stands united as one. Not only does it boast seven Invincible Supreme [Supreme beings considered peerless within their realm], but it also has several dozen Dao-Union Supreme."
"Legend has it that when they join forces, they are powerful enough to rival a Chaos Sovereign [a supreme existence at the peak of the Chaos Realm]. Even the Boundless Sovereign [a title for a Third Chaos Realm existence] from the Third Chaos Realm would grant them a measure of respect."
Eldrin Chen nodded slightly in understanding. The Third Chaos Realm was also known as the Boundless Realm. Therefore, beings of that realm were called Boundless Sovereigns, a title synonymous with Chaos Sovereign.
Such figures stood at the very pinnacle of the Chaos Realm [the highest known cultivation realm]. They were nearly indescribable, supreme existences, countable in number across the vast expanse of the Chaos [the primordial, formless state from which all existence emerged].
This Seven Domains Alliance, he surmised, was likely formed by those at the Half-Step Primordial Beginning [the realm beyond Chaos] precisely to contend with such Third Chaos Realm powers.
Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen could not help but sigh with feeling. "The Chaos is boundless and immeasurable. The Seven Domains of the Southern Abyss [a specific region within the Chaos], compared to the Blazing Zenith's Hundred Domains, is but a mere corner."
"Conversely, the Blazing Zenith's Hundred Domains appear utterly insignificant when measured against the Seven Domains Alliance."
"Yet, even the Seven Domains Alliance, within the entirety of the Chaos, likely does not represent the true, central heart of power, does it?"
Indestructible Elder nodded in agreement, a wry smile touching his lips. "This Seven Domains Alliance may indeed far surpass our humble Blazing Zenith's Hundred Domains."
"But when one gazes upon the whole of the Chaos, even a Chaos Domain [a major territory within the Chaos] garrisoned by a Third Chaos Realm sovereign can only be considered a prosperous domain. Who would dare claim it as the Chaos Center [the mythical, central nexus of the Chaos]?"
Witnessing this exchange, the nearby Black Abyss Great Emperor let out a sigh. "It is said that after breaking through to become a Chaos Celestial Emperor [a supreme emperor who has mastered the Chaos] via the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art [a legendary supreme cultivation method], one can sense the guiding beacon to the Nine Revolutions Ancestral Court [the mythical ancestral hall associated with the Nine Revolutions Art]."
"I wonder if the place where the Patriarch who founded the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art resides can be considered the Chaos Center [the mythical central point of all existence in the primordial chaos]?"
Upon hearing this, Eldrin Chen and Indestructible Elder immediately adopted expressions of deep respect. Eldrin Chen spoke, "Even if it is not the absolute center, it should undoubtedly be counted as one of the Chaos Four Extremities [the four cardinal extremes or foundational pillars of the primordial chaos]."
Speaking of this, Eldrin Chen could not help but feel a profound sense of awe.
Legend has it that one who masters the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art and uses it as a foundation to break through to the Chaos Celestial Emperor [a supreme sovereign ruler within the primordial chaos] realm gains the qualification to become an inner disciple of the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art lineage.
A Chaos Celestial Emperor who has cultivated the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art is merely an inner disciple. The implications behind this are enough to send shivers down one's spine.
Eldrin Chen had no doubt that the founder of the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art must be a supreme existence of the Third Chaos Realm [the third and highest known tier of power within the primordial chaos], likely even among the very pinnacle of that realm.
The three of them conversed and marveled at the vastness of the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea [the boundless, turbulent expanse of undifferentiated primal energy]. Unconsciously, they traversed the distant Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea and arrived at this stretch of the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea just beyond the Profound Heaven Ruins [the ruins of a celestial realm, now adrift in the chaos].
"This is the place."
Gazing at the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea before him, Eldrin Chen murmured softly.
Black Abyss Great Emperor also nodded. He swept his gaze across the surroundings, then frowned slightly. "Quite a few have gathered here," he remarked.
Eldrin Chen swept his gaze across the surroundings, sensing that within the surrounding Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation], over a hundred auras of immense power lay concealed.
The weakest of these auras belonged to beings at the Sage Ascendant Tier [a supreme cultivation realm], and a select few had even stepped into the domain of the Primordial Limitless Sage Ascendant [an even more profound and boundless state within the Sage Ascendant realm].
Seeing this, Indestructible Elder spoke up at the opportune moment. "Each opening of the Profound Heaven Ruins [a legendary, ancient testing ground] is, in essence, a trial to sift out prodigies with the potential to reach the Dao-Union Supreme [the ultimate realm of merging with the fundamental Dao]."
"Once a suitable prodigy emerges," he continued, "the Profound Heaven Ruins will grant them the Opportunity [a rare chance or catalyst] to break through to the Chaos Realm [the realm of Chaos cultivation]. This serves as an exchange, binding these prodigies to owe a favor to the Profound Heaven lineage."
As he spoke, Indestructible Elder shook his head. "These individuals all consider themselves extraordinary, yet truly passing the trial is a feat of immense difficulty."
Eldrin Chen nodded in understanding upon hearing this.
From the perspective of the Profound Heaven Supreme [the supreme being behind the ruins] standing behind the Profound Heaven Ruins, a favor from someone with potential below the Dao-Union Supreme would be of almost no aid to them.
After all, considering the Tribulation [a cataclysmic heavenly trial or calamity] faced by the Profound Heaven lineage, a mere Chaos Celestial Emperor [an emperor within the Chaos Realm] at the First Realm of Chaos [the initial stage of the Chaos Realm] would possess no capability to intervene whatsoever.
Only potential at the Dao-Union Supreme level or above, preferably with the latent capacity to reach the Primordial Chaos Limitless [the boundless state within Primordial Chaos], would be worthy of them exchanging such a precious treasure for a future favor.
"Since ancient times," Indestructible Elder concluded, "the Profound Heaven Ruins has opened its gates hundreds of times, yet those who have emerged with its treasures number fewer than ten."
Indestructible Elder [the ancient being known for his unyielding nature] recounted his tale, then added with a bitter smile, "This old man has come here three times before, yet each time, I was defeated at the second trial."
"Had I not gained some slight advancement in my Rebirth [a profound ability to reconstitute one's being] after enduring the Immortal Cosmos Tribulation [a cataclysmic heavenly trial that reshapes one's destiny], I would certainly not have come here today to court humiliation."
Eldrin Chen gave a slight nod, offering no further comment. He merely lifted his gaze to survey the surrounding Vast Chaotic Void, a trace of solemnity flickering deep within his eyes.
Within this expanse of Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation], over a hundred Sage Ascendant [beings who have ascended to the penultimate stage of cultivation] were gathered. Yet, among them, only a handful truly made Eldrin Chen feel a sense of threat.
However, three individuals in particular radiated an aura of such profound danger that they filled Eldrin Chen with an immense sense of crisis.
Of these three paramount powers, the first bore the likeness of a Primordial Demonic Ape [an ancient and savage simian demon], gripping a Primordial War Spear forged from Netherworld Dark Iron [a metal imbued with the essence of the underworld].
The second was clad in Gilded War Armor, his entire form exuding a blisteringly intense aura.
The third was a woman, her graceful battle armor shimmering. With every flicker of her gaze, one could glimpse divine light reminiscent of World Creation [the primordial act of forging reality], a light capable of rending the cosmos itself.
Noticing his focused expression, Indestructible Elder spoke, "These three possess extraordinary strength. They are known as the Primordial Demonic Ape, Blazing Zenith Ember, and Misty Smoke Female Sage."
"All three have cultivated the Nine True Spirit Divine Forms [a supreme technique manifesting nine archetypal spiritual avatars] to perfection and fused them into a singular, unparalleled existence."
As Indestructible Elder [the ancient being known for his unyielding existence] narrated, Eldrin Chen gradually came to understand the origins of these three individuals.
It turned out these three were all peerless prodigies of the Flesh Ascendant lineage [a cultivation path focused on achieving supreme power through the physical body]. Among them, the Primordial Demonic Ape was none other than that very Primordial Demonic Ape Progenitor [the primordial ancestor of the demonic ape race] from the Three Poles Origin Domain.
Now, having pledged allegiance to the Foreign Realm Demon Emperor, he had become the First Divine General under his command. His combat prowess was hailed as invincible beneath the Chaos Celestial Emperor, even possessing the strength to challenge a true Celestial Emperor [the supreme ruler of a celestial domain, a pinnacle existence].
Blazing Zenith Ember, meanwhile, was the foremost powerhouse of the third generation within the Blazing Zenith Lineage. He excelled in the ultimate path of Eruption [a divine ability that unleashes explosive, overwhelming power in a short burst]. Within that brief window of Eruption, his combat power could even face a Chaos Celestial Emperor head-on.
The last of them, Misty Smoke Female Sage, was a rising star who had emerged within the last ten thousand Kalpa Tribulation [cosmic cycles of immense duration, often associated with great upheavals].
She rose to prominence three thousand Kalpa Tribulation ago, counted among the peerless prodigies of the younger generation.
Legends spoke of her once battling a Chaos Celestial Emperor single-handedly for three thousand exchanges without defeat, even withdrawing with effortless grace. This was clear proof that her strength was absolutely not to be underestimated.
"Three beings who have cultivated the Unique True Form [a supreme divine ability that manifests one's unique and ultimate physical form]. No wonder they exert such immense pressure," Eldrin Chen mused inwardly.
His thoughts flickered. He estimated that even if he unleashed all his means and fought with everything he had, facing these three Invincible Sage Ascendant [beings who have ascended to a sage-like state of near-invincibility], his only path would likely be a retreat into the depths of the Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea.
Of course, with the Abyssal Divine Rune [a divine protective rune of abyssal power] guarding his form, Eldrin Chen remained more than capable of ensuring his own safety.
Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen spoke, "How do the strengths of these three compare to yours, Senior?"
"They are on par with me."
Indestructible Elder replied, then continued, "Blazing Zenith Ember [a title meaning 'Blazing Zenith Ember'] possesses the greatest power. Legend says he once refined a Chaos Origin Pearl [a primordial pearl containing the essence of chaos], though fortunately, he has not yet mastered the Chaos Divine Rune [a supreme divine ability born from chaos]."
"As for the other two, while their strength is not weak either, I doubt they could truly overcome this old man."
Speaking to this point, Indestructible Elder added, "The Primordial Immortal Cosmos Tribulation [a cataclysmic heavenly trial of cosmic scale] allowed this old man to advance a step further. In a true fight, I might even hold a slightly greater chance of victory."
