Chapter 2150 : A Realm Born of Primordial Chaos

It was precisely for this reason that the ultimate objective of Eldrin Chen's journey was also that large-scale Primordial Chaos Secret Realm [a hidden realm born from the primordial chaos, containing ancient treasures and opportunities].

With this thought in mind, Eldrin Chen saw no reason for further delay. After a moment of silent calculation with his fingers, he declared, "Let us go. We shall seek out the Primordial Chaos Secret Realm."

Thereafter, Eldrin Chen proceeded towards the Depths of Chaos [the most turbulent and ancient regions of the formless void], all the while performing his divinations. Unnoticed, several thousand Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles spanning billions of years] slipped past.

During this span, they departed from the territory of the Seven Domains Alliance and traversed the boundless, magnificent expanse of the Chaos [the primordial, formless void from which all realms are born], arriving within another unknown stretch of the Chaos.

"The Nether Mastiff Ancient Domain [an ancient domain ruled by the Nether Mastiff lineage]."

On this day, after ascertaining the origins of this place, a glint of cold light flickered in Eldrin Chen's eyes.

Due to the immense passage of time, the Chaos is in constant flux. The spheres of influence of major powers shift continuously, and the location of the Primordial Chaos Secret Realm had undergone a significant transformation.

The Nether Mastiff Ancient Domain they now found themselves in was the territory of a Half-Step Limitless [a realm just shy of the ultimate Limitless stage] level power.

The Nether Mastiff Lineage [the lineage descended from or associated with the Nether Mastiff] possessed formidable strength, boasting two Half-Step Limitless Patriarch. While far inferior to the Seven Domains Alliance, they were considered a top-tier force within the Chaos.

Of course, if this were all, it would not be enough to stir killing intent within Eldrin Chen.

Most crucially, the Nether Mastiff Lineage [a powerful demonic clan serving the Netherworld Sovereign] is a force under the command of the Netherworld Sovereign [a supreme ruler of the Netherworld realms], who was one of the seven Sovereign [beings who have transcended the limits of cultivation to attain supreme authority over cosmic laws] who once joined forces to besiege Nameless [the enigmatic master who founded the Sacrificial Self Path].

"That Nether Mastiff Patriarch [the current leader of the Nether Mastiff clan] seems to be one of the ten Great God [powerful deities who command legions and rule over vast domains] serving under the Netherworld Sovereign,"

Eldrin Chen [the protagonist, a powerful cultivator on the path of returning to the abyss] felt a flicker of killing intent stir within his heart towards this Netherworld Sovereign.

In ages past, the Nether Mastiff Ancient Progenitor [the primordial ancestor of the Nether Mastiff lineage] had participated in hunting down the disciples and descendants of Nameless, making him an enemy of Eldrin Chen.

What surprised him, however, was that the entire Nether Mastiff Ancient Clan [the ancient and powerful demon clan descended from the Nether Mastiff progenitor] seemed to be preparing for war. Mobilization orders had been issued to countless factions across the entire Nether Mastiff Ancient Domain [the vast territory ruled by the Nether Mastiff clan], as if they were about to launch an assault on a major power.

With this thought, Eldrin Chen moved with ghostly silence, apprehending a Chaos Heavenly Emperor [a cultivator who has attained the Heavenly Emperor realm through mastering chaotic primordial energies] to inquire, "The Nether Mastiff Ancient Clan has conscripted you all. For what purpose?"

"Senior…"

The Chaos Heavenly Emperor paled, his voice trembling as he answered, "The Nether Mastiff Ancient Progenitor has issued the command. He intends to mobilize us to attack the Seven Domains Alliance [a formidable coalition of seven major immortal domains]."

"Attack the Seven Domains Alliance?"

Eldrin Chen's brow furrowed slightly. Weaving together the information from this Chaos Heavenly Emperor with his own deductions, he finally released the man, stating coldly, "If word of today's events spreads, know that I will not spare you."

"I dare not, I dare not."

The Chaos Heavenly Emperor trembled, not daring to harbor a single stray thought.

The presence emanating from Eldrin Chen was simply too overwhelming, far beyond what an ordinary Supreme like himself could ever hope to match.

Seeing this, Eldrin Chen said nothing more and directly returned him to his own Path-Field.

After the man departed, Exquisite Jiang spoke with a note of concern, "What is truly happening? Why would the Nether Soul lineage dare to attack the Seven Domains Alliance?"

Eldrin Chen fell into a brief, contemplative silence before replying, "A mere Nether Mastiff Lineage would never have the audacity to assault the Seven Domains Alliance on its own."

"If my deductions are correct, this war is being directed from the shadows by the Netherworld Sovereign. It is highly likely that multiple forces led by Half-Step Limitless cultivators will join the fray."

Upon hearing this, Nyssa Qu's expression shifted dramatically. "Could it be," she ventured, "that the Nether Soul Sovereign intends to devour the Seven Domains Alliance whole?"

Her words cast a heavy silence over the gathered companions.

When the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken. If the Seven Domains Alliance were to fall completely, their own Returning Abyss Hundred Domains would find it impossible to remain untouched by the ensuing storm.

Seeing this, Eldrin Chen offered words of comfort: "A war that spans the Boundless Chaos [the primordial, formless expanse from which all realms are born] will likely require tens of thousands of Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles spanning billions of years] just for mobilization. We still have ample time to prepare."

"Moreover, the Seven Domains Alliance has stood firm for countless years; it is unlikely to be utterly annihilated so easily."

"Our most pressing task is to swiftly advance our cultivation."

Upon hearing this, the group finally let out a slight sigh of relief.

Noting their reaction, Eldrin Chen spoke again: "Nevertheless, we should inform the Seven Domains Alliance of this matter in advance, allowing them some time to prepare."

With those words, Eldrin Chen flicked his sleeve, sending a Chaos Communication Talisman [a mystical talisman capable of transmitting messages across the chaotic void] deep into the Depths of Chaos [the most remote and turbulent regions of the primordial chaos].

After completing this task, they continued their journey, eventually arriving within a region of the Vast and Boundless Chaos [the infinite, ever-shifting expanse of primordial chaos].

This was a hidden place, sealed by a supreme Immortal Path restrictive barrier [a powerful ward formed from the principles of the Immortal Path]. Even if a Chaos Sovereign [a supreme being who commands the primordial chaos itself] were to arrive, they might not detect its anomaly without careful scrutiny.

Eldrin Chen inspected the restrictive barrier and declared, "It seems no one has been here."

With those words, he opened the restrictive barrier and stepped into the heart of the hidden sanctuary.

The moment they stepped into the Primordial Chaos Secret Realm [a hidden dimension born from the primordial chaos of creation], everyone felt the space was saturated with an almost liquid-like concentration of Chaos Primordial Energy [the most ancient and potent form of energy, the source of all creation].

Even the Primordial Chaos Secret Realm within the Returning Abyss Grotto-Heaven [a blessed realm of profound cultivation] paled into insignificance when compared to the density of Chaos Primordial Energy present here.

"This is..."

Verdant Consort [a powerful female cultivator] was momentarily stunned before her expression shifted dramatically. "A large-scale Primordial Chaos Secret Realm?"

Eldrin Chen [the protagonist, a formidable cultivator] gave a slight nod of confirmation, offering no further explanation.

This particular Primordial Chaos Secret Realm had been cleansed long ago by the enigmatic Nameless [a legendary figure of immense power], leaving behind no truly terrifying threats.

Leading the group on a slow, deliberate walk, he soon discovered that this Primordial Chaos Secret Realm was teeming with a vast quantity of Chaos Divine Object [divine-grade materials born from primordial chaos].

Among them were veins of Chaos Immortal Gold [a supreme metal forged in chaos], Chaos Tier [the highest grade of spiritual objects] Immortal Artifact [enchanted tools of immense power] and Spirit Herb [plants imbued with potent spiritual energy]. They did not immediately begin mining the Immortal Metal [metals infused with immortal energy] veins, choosing instead to first harvest the mature Immortal Herb [herbs containing immortal-grade energy] that had grown here.

After a thorough search and collection effort, they had gathered over six thousand Chaos Tier Immortal Herb. Among these, nearly one hundred were of the mid-grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure [a treasure-grade spiritual object born from chaos] level.

With this haul, not only were the ingredients for the Lesser Limitless Immortal Pill [a legendary pill that grants a measure of limitless potential] secured, but Eldrin Chen had also gathered all the supplementary herbs required for the full Limitless Immortal Pill [the ultimate pill said to grant true limitless potential].

Of course, the most crucial Limitless Flower [a legendary herb said to grant a glimpse into the boundless Dao] is far too rare, requiring Primordial Chaos Genesis Essence [the primordial energy from which all creation is born] to nurture it into existence.

They had not even found Limitless Grass [a lesser variant of the Limitless Flower] in the outer regions.

"Let us venture deeper,"

Eldrin Chen spoke calmly, then strode towards the heart of the secret realm.

Upon reaching the center of the Primordial Chaos Secret Realm, Eldrin Chen could not help but let a faint smile touch his lips.

There, in the very core of the realm, an immortal lake gently undulated. The pool was filled with a golden, divine liquid—this was none other than the legendary 'Supreme Divine Liquid [a sacred elixir of unparalleled purity, capable of accelerating cultivation to unimaginable heights].'

"Supreme Divine Liquid... So much of it!"

The moment she laid eyes on the Supreme Divine Liquid, Exquisite Jiang could not suppress a look of joyous astonishment.

The sheer quantity was staggering. This vast amount of Supreme Divine Liquid was likely sufficient to support eight or nine Path Union Supreme [cultivators who have unified their cultivation paths] in advancing to the half-step Limitless Realm [a legendary state bordering on true boundlessness].

With this trove of resources, their future cultivation journey would become immeasurably smoother.

In response, Eldrin Chen merely offered a faint smile. He then stepped across the Supreme Divine Liquid [a liquid of supreme spiritual purity] lake, arriving upon a small islet at its heart.

Upon the islet grew over a dozen Immortal Herb [plants imbued with immortal properties]. Among them were nine stalks of Limitless Grass [a legendary herb symbolizing boundless potential] and three immature Limitless Flower [the ultimate form of the Limitless Grass].

This sight did not surprise Eldrin Chen. The Limitless Flower was an Upper Grade Chaos Spiritual Root [a spiritual root of the highest chaos grade]. To mature into its complete form, it required the fusion of Primordial Chaos Genesis Essence [the foundational essence of primordial chaos] to mend its foundation; otherwise, it would remain forever in its juvenile state.

"With this batch of Limitless Grass, I can later open the furnace to refine Lesser Limitless Immortal Pill [a potent pill derived from the Limitless Grass]," he murmured to himself.

Eldrin Chen reflected silently. These Limitless Grass and the Path Union Flower [a flower representing the union of cultivation paths] were all part of the legacy left behind by the Nameless Path Ancestor [an ancient and mysterious progenitor of a cultivation path].

Given his current cultivation realm and foundational strength, refining the true Limitless Immortal Pill [the supreme pill of limitless potential] was utterly beyond him. However, crafting the Lesser Limitless Immortal Pill was perfectly within his grasp.

Furthermore, the medicinal potency of the Lesser Limitless Immortal Pill far surpassed that of the Path Union Pill [a pill aiding in path unification], making it precisely what Eldrin Chen urgently needed.

With this thought, Eldrin Chen collected the batch of Limitless Grass, then scattered their seeds back onto the original soil.

He then turned his gaze toward the Central of the islet. There, at its very heart, lay a small immortal pool spanning one Zhang-length [one Zhang-length equals three point three three meters] in diameter.

Within this pool flowed a shallow layer of ten-colored immortal water, shimmering with an aura of profound and unfathomable mystery.

"Chaos Marrow-Cleansing Pool [a legendary pool of primordial chaos energy], Marrow-Cleansing Immortal Water [a miraculous liquid capable of purifying one's very marrow]."

Eldrin Chen murmured softly, a glimmer of anticipation flickering in his eyes.

The Chaos Marrow-Cleansing Pool is an Upper Grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure [a supreme treasure born of primordial chaos], while the Marrow-Cleansing Immortal Water is an Upper Grade Chaos Rare Treasure [a rare substance of immense power]. When combined, they possess the wondrous effect of Meridian Cleansing and Marrow Refining [a profound process of purifying the energy channels and refining the bone marrow].

Of course, there are many treasures in the world capable of Meridian Cleansing and Marrow Refining, but few are potent enough to be of use to a Chaos Heavenly Emperor [a sovereign whose power rivals the heavens themselves].

The truly heaven-defying aspect of this Chaos Marrow-Cleansing Pool lies in its efficacy even for those at the half-step Limitless Powerhouse [a realm bordering on absolute, boundless power] stage.

"A pity," he sighed, "the Marrow-Cleansing Immortal Water within the Chaos Marrow-Cleansing Pool is finite. The accumulation over countless years is only sufficient for nine individuals to use."

"Once depleted, it would require several million Kalpa Tribulation [cosmic cycles of immense duration] to restore a single opportunity for use."

Thoughts flashing through his mind, Eldrin Chen then looked at his companions. "I intend to utilize this Marrow-Cleansing Pool to temper my foundational cultivation. Guard me while I undergo the process."

Violet Consort Yan and the others nodded, their expressions turning solemn.

Seeing this, Eldrin Chen hesitated no longer. He stepped into the Marrow-Cleansing Pool and, harnessing the miraculous properties of both the pool and the Immortal Water, began the profound process of cleansing and refining the very foundation of his being.

His physical body was originally flawless, having been tempered within the Space-Time Crucible [a legendary forge that refines beings across the dimensions of time and space]. Logically, it should have reached a state where no further advancement was possible.

Yet, contrary to all expectations, under the baptism of the Marrow-Cleansing Elixir and the Marrow-Cleansing Pool [a sacred pool whose waters purify and rebuild the very marrow of one's bones], his physique underwent a startling transformation.

This change emanated from within, not merely tempering his flesh, but continuously supplementing and perfecting its inherent deficiencies.

His body acted like a sponge, greedily absorbing the Marrow-Cleansing Elixir. Every inch of his skin began to glow with an incandescent light, as if on the verge of a complete, transcendent ascension.

Finally, on a certain day, Eldrin Chen felt his physical form achieve ultimate perfection, reaching a state of flawless, seamless harmony. It was then that he began his assault on the realm of the Supreme Physique [the pinnacle state of bodily cultivation, a perfect vessel capable of containing ultimate power].

He pushed his Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core and true essence of a cultivator's being] to its absolute limit, then turned his focus inward to his Five Great Chaos Divine Forms [five supreme manifestations of power derived from the primordial chaos].

It had to be admitted that each of Eldrin Chen's five Ultimate Divine Form [the highest class of divine transformations] was profoundly powerful, bordering on the heaven-defying.

Among them, the Returning Abyss Divine Form absorbed all incoming harm; the Space-Time Divine Form possessed the wondrous ability to manipulate Space-Time [the fundamental fabric of reality, encompassing both spatial dimensions and the flow of time]; the Oblivion Divine Form wielded the supreme power of Slaughter [an annihilating force that erases existence]; and the Chaos Divine Form provided the most potent amplifying effects.

Beyond these four Ultimate Divine Form, the Chaos Giant Cauldron [a colossal cauldron forged from and embodying primordial chaos] was formed from the fusion of five supreme Great Path [fundamental laws or disciplines of cultivation], its might rivaling that of the five Great God [a cultivation realm representing a being of immense divine power] forms.

But now, the question of how to fuse these five Great God forms plunged Eldrin Chen into a moment of critical decision.

To be fair, Eldrin Chen also wished to merge the Five Great Chaos Divine Forms into a single entity. [the five supreme divine manifestations born from primordial chaos]

However, each of the Five Great Chaos Divine Forms was far too powerful, and their inherent compatibility with one another was low. Forcing a fusion carried an unacceptably high risk of failure.

Therefore, Eldrin Chen had to settle for a more modest goal. He would first fuse three of the Chaos Divine Form [a divine manifestation born from primordial chaos] and use that as the foundation to break through to the Path Union Supreme Realm. [the highest tier of the Path Union cultivation stage]

"When attempting to fuse Supreme Divine Form [supreme divine manifestations], compatibility is the most crucial factor,"

Eldrin Chen murmured inwardly. In the end, he chose the three Great God Forms [divine manifestations of the Great God realm] of Oblivion [the concept of utter annihilation], Returning Abyss, and Chaos.

This selection was made precisely because these three Great God Forms possessed a higher degree of compatibility with each other.

Firstly, the Chaos Divine Form was all-encompassing; it could merge with any other divine form.

Secondly, the Oblivion Divine Form was far too domineering. If fused with other divine forms, it would likely trigger severe backlash, making success improbable.

Most crucially, only the power of the Returning Abyss Divine Form could restrain and absorb the Power of Oblivion [the annihilating force] of the Oblivion Divine Form, thereby reducing the difficulty of fusing the Chaos Divine Form.

Furthermore, once the Chaos Divine Form merged with the Oblivion and Returning Abyss Great God Forms, it would dramatically amplify the power of these two divine manifestations, vastly enhancing Eldrin Chen's offensive and defensive capabilities.

"Chaos, Oblivion, Returning Abyss..."

Once his resolve was firm, Eldrin Chen immediately unleashed his full power. The Chaos Ancient Pearl [a primordial treasure born from the formless chaos], the Battleaxe of Oblivion [a weapon imbued with the power of absolute annihilation], and the Returning Abyss Annihilation Disc [a disc that channels the destructive power of the abyss] all manifested. He then channeled the power of his Supreme Physique [a peerless bodily constitution] and his Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] to fuse them together.

Thus, as time flowed ceaselessly, a tremendous, earth-shattering roar erupted. The three Chaos Divine Form [divine abilities born from primordial chaos] finally merged into one, transforming into a single Chaos Ancient Pearl [a primordial treasure born from the formless chaos] brimming with the power of Oblivion [the concept of absolute erasure and nothingness] and Returning Abyss Power [the destructive power that returns all to the void].

This power transcended the limits of the Chaos Heavenly Emperor Realm [the realm of a Heavenly Emperor, a sovereign ruler], reaching an indescribable, supreme domain.

"BOOM—"

Eldrin Chen attempted to activate it. This Ancient Pearl [an ancient, mystical pearl] shifted and transformed continuously, first manifesting as the Battleaxe of Oblivion [a weapon imbued with the power of absolute annihilation], then morphing into the Returning Abyss Annihilation Disc [a disc that channels the destructive power of the abyss].

Whether it was the offensive might of the Battleaxe of Oblivion [a weapon imbued with the power of absolute annihilation] or the defensive prowess of the Returning Abyss Annihilation Disc [a disc that channels the destructive power of the abyss], both were now several times more potent than their original forms.

"Such formidable power... the ultimate Supreme Divine Form [the pinnacle manifestation of divine ability]."

Eldrin Chen spoke softly, a faint smile gracing his lips.

He had a feeling. With this Supreme Ultimate Divine Form [the absolute pinnacle manifestation of divine ability], augmented by the dual Great God [a realm of immense divine power] forms of the Chaos Giant Cauldron [a colossal cauldron forged from primordial chaos] and the Cosmic Sky Sundial [a sundial that measures the cycles of the cosmos], his physical combat prowess should now rival that of a top-tier Path Union Supreme [a supreme being who has unified multiple cultivation paths].

Contemplating this, Eldrin Chen once again pushed his foundational strengths—the Supreme Physique [a body constitution of the highest order], the Supreme Great Path [a supreme cultivation technique], and others—to their absolute limits. Instantly, he felt the combat power of his physical form surge to a significantly higher level.

Overall, his comprehensive combat prowess had increased by nearly forty percent compared to before his breakthrough.

Unfortunately, this enhancement ultimately did not transcend the limits of the Pinnacle Supreme [the peak stage of the Supreme Realm]. A considerable distance still lay between him and the Half-Step Limitless [a quasi-stage beyond the Supreme Realm].

"As I am now, my strength should rank among the invincible within the top tier of Path Union Supreme [Supreme cultivators who have unified their cultivation path]. Yet, I still fall significantly short of the Half-Step Limitless," Eldrin murmured to himself.

With that, Eldrin Chen slowly withdrew his Supreme Divine Form [a divine transformation ability of supreme rank].

When he opened his eyes, he found Exquisite Jiang and the others watching him intently, their expressions brimming with eager anticipation and flickers of joy.

"How did it go?"

Exquisite Jiang asked, unable to contain her hopeful curiosity.

A faint smile touched Eldrin Chen's lips. "The breakthrough proceeded smoothly," he replied. "My strength has seen another substantial increase."

Upon hearing his words, Exquisite Jiang and the others could not help but let their relief and delight show on their faces.

Seeing this, Eldrin Chen offered no further comment. He directly instructed Exquisite Jiang and the others to enter the Marrow-Cleansing Pool [a mystical pool that purifies and refines the physical body] for their cleansing ritual. He himself then withdrew to a side chamber to consolidate his newly gained cultivation.

After each person had completed the baptism of their flesh, Eldrin Chen led them into the depths of the Marrow-Cleansing Pool. There, they began their cultivation, harnessing the pool's profound energies to advance their practice.

Thus, time flowed on relentlessly. Unbeknownst to them, several thousand Kalpa Tribulation [immense cosmic cycles spanning billions of years] had passed in the world beyond.

Until this day arrived. Eldrin Chen slowly awakened from his deep seclusion, releasing a long, measured breath. "The limit has been reached," he stated.

Exquisite Jiang and the others emerged from their own meditative retreats. Glancing at Eldrin Chen, she inquired, "A significant portion of the Supreme Divine Liquid [a legendary liquid of supreme purity that enhances cultivation] remains. How do you intend to handle this place?"

"This location is secure for the time being. There is no need for excessive concern," he replied.

Eldrin Chen fell into a pensive silence, a slight furrow appearing between his brows.

Having cultivated to this stage, the capacity of his physical body had reached its absolute zenith. To continue refining the Supreme Divine Liquid and elevate his cultivation further, a breakthrough in his cultivation realm was now an absolute necessity.

Among his various foundational pillars, his physical foundation was temporarily stalled. To advance it again would require the attainment of a new Chaos Divine Form [a supreme physical transformation technique born from primordial chaos], which would then allow for another Path Union [a profound fusion of one's cultivated path with their very being].

His Great Path [the supreme cultivation art he follows] cultivation, however, held potential for advancement. Yet, the difficulty of breaking through the Chaos Limitless Great Path [a divine ability representing boundless chaos] to the Limit-Breaker [a realm where one surpasses previous limitations] was immense. Forging a second Supreme Great Path [a pinnacle cultivation art] would prove even more arduous than mastering the first.

Eldrin Chen must refine the Lesser Limitless Immortal Pill [a legendary pill said to grant a sliver of immortality] to have any real chance of success.

With this thought, Eldrin Chen spoke, "To refine the Lesser Limitless Immortal Pill, I must use the Heaven and Earth Creation Cauldron [a divine cauldron capable of forging heaven and earth] as the alchemical furnace. I need to return to the Returning Abyss Hundred Domains for it."

"Wait for me here. I should not be gone long."

So saying, Eldrin Chen utilized a shortcut through the Nameless Space [a mysterious, transient dimension] and returned to the heart of the Returning Abyss Primordial Domain.

After retrieving the Heaven and Earth Creation Cauldron, Eldrin Chen once again used the Returning Abyss Pearl [a spatial treasure linked to the Abyss] to travel back to the Nether Mastiff Ancient Domain.

The spatial suppression of a large Primordial Domain [an ancient, primordial world] is overwhelmingly powerful. Even the current Returning Abyss Pearl could not pierce directly into the heart of a large Primordial Chaos Secret Realm [a hidden realm born from primordial chaos].

He could only traverse to the outskirts of the Nether Mastiff Ancient Domain and then fly towards the large Primordial Chaos Secret Realm.

He had not flown far when Eldrin Chen suddenly spotted, ahead in the Chaos [the formless, primordial void], several dozen massive Chaos Ancient Ship [vessels forged to sail the primordial chaos] tearing through the void towards him.

Upon each of these ancient vessels stood over ten Chaos Heavenly Emperor [powerful emperors who rule fragments of the primordial chaos]. At the helm of the leading Supreme Ancient Ship [the flagship among chaos vessels] stood three supreme beings whose cultivation shook the heavens—Path Union Supreme [Supreme Realm cultivators who have unified their cultivation paths].

"The army of the Nether Mastiff Clan."

Eldrin Chen's heart skipped a beat, and a trace of solemnity flickered in his gaze.

Although they were old foes, he had no desire to invite unnecessary trouble. He immediately continued his flight towards the Depths of Chaos.

At the same time, aboard that Chaos Ancient Ship, the three Path Union Supreme cultivators also spotted Eldrin Chen.

"A fellow Path Union Supreme who cultivates both the Fleshly Body Sanctification and the Path of Path Mastery," the leading Pinnacle Supreme murmured, a flicker of surprise in his tone.

Yet this alone was not enough to warrant his full attention. The priority was still to rendezvous with the Patriarch.

But just as he prepared to depart, a golden rat perched on his shoulder suddenly stood upright, letting out two sharp, frantic squeaks directed at Eldrin Chen.

This caused the Path Union Supreme cultivator's expression to shift slightly. "For the Treasure-Seeking Rat to be so agitated... could it be this person carries a peerless treasure?" he exclaimed with some astonishment.

The thought solidified in his mind. The Pinnacle Supreme instantly rose and gave chase after Eldrin Chen.

"Move! Do not let him escape!"

In that fleeting instant, three Supreme figures soared into the sky, all giving chase towards Eldrin Chen.

Seeing the trio in pursuit, Eldrin Chen's brow furrowed slightly. The moment his gaze fell upon the Treasure-Seeking Rat, a chill settled in his heart.

It was a Treasure-Seeking Rat of the Supreme level, possessing an astonishing sensitivity to treasures.

Eldrin Chen had just taken the Heaven and Earth Cauldron and concealed it within the Nameless Space. Yet, despite only that brief moment of contact, the residual aura had already been detected by this Treasure-Seeking Rat.
