Chapter 520: Chaotic Great Saint

Evolution High Tower.

Massive and towering, standing a full ten light-years high, it stood in the most core hinterland of Human Civilization, worshipped and adored by countless lives day and night.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged in the deepest part of the high tower. This was a vast world, where eighteen peculiar trees were planted not far away, their branches swaying with the breeze.

These eighteen peculiar trees breathed in and out Chaos Qi, and the coercive aura they emitted was no weaker than any Pilgrimage Realm Peak.

"These peculiar trees can directly absorb Chaos Qi without undergoing quenching and purification because they have a special corresponding internal structure."

Lin Yuan thought to himself as numerous flashes of inspiration and comprehension burst forth in his mind.

As early as when he was Eleven-Tier, upon obtaining these eighteen Sovereign Realm peculiar trees, Lin Yuan had been quite curious about their ability to directly absorb and exhale Chaos Qi, and had conducted multiple studies.

After Lin Yuan stepped into Twelfth Order, these studies finally perfected the final part, and all the bits and pieces converged to form a complete and perfected secret technique.

[Your Comprehension Ability is Heaven-Defying. By watching the peculiar trees breathe in and out Chaos Qi, you have comprehended the secret technique to directly absorb Chaos Qi.]

A secret technique took shape in Lin Yuan's mind. The essence of this secret technique was to fine-tune the Internal World so that it achieved an effect similar to the peculiar trees breathing in and out Chaos Qi.

"It is finally done." A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face. The secret technique increased Lin Yuan's utilization and absorption of Chaos Qi, making him no longer overly reliant on chaos stone.

The internal Universe of a Dao Realm expert could also absorb Chaos Qi, but it required a multi-step process, which was usually fine.

In critical moments, such as fighting with enemies, where would there be time for you to slowly absorb Chaos Qi? At this time, the effect of chaos stone manifested.

The chaos stone refined by Venerable Gu Ming personally contained extremely pure Chaos Qi inside and could be absorbed directly.

Now Lin Yuan could also achieve a similar scene, absorbing Chaos Qi directly.

"The greatest help this secret technique brings me is my understanding of Chaos Qi." Lin Yuan's expression was thoughtful.

Chaos Qi was energy seen everywhere in the Chaos Void, and it was the Foundation of everything. However, because it was too common, it was easily ignored by Twelfth Order Experts.

Venerable Gu Ming Chaos Continent, Ming Chuan City.

Inside the inn.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, the Physical Body aura slowly stabilizing.

"With my current application of Chaos Qi, the Physical Body of the Incarnation I condensed is enough to let my combat power completely reach the Pilgrimage Realm Peak."

A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.

Previously, when suppressing dozens of alien Twelfth Order beings inside the Universe, the dozens of Incarnations condensed by Lin Yuan only possessed strength close to the Pilgrimage Realm Peak.

It was roughly equivalent to the level of Supreme Being Xuan Yuan or Myriad Transformation Mother Empress, at most slightly stronger.

But now, it had completely reached the Pilgrimage Realm Peak.

One must know that close to the Pilgrimage Realm Peak and Pilgrimage Realm Peak were completely two different concepts.

Supreme Being Xuan Yuan and Myriad Transformation Mother Empress had been close to the Pilgrimage Realm Peak for a long time, but before the great destruction of this Universe, whether they could step into the Pilgrimage Realm Peak remained an unknown.

High probability they couldn't.

The two Ultimates of the Calamity Clan were Pilgrimage Realm Peak because they had cultivated for more than one cosmic era.

Under normal circumstances, it was very difficult for hundreds or thousands of cosmic eras to give birth to a Pilgrimage Realm Peak within the Universe.

"I still need to be careful; this is not inside the Universe."

Lin Yuan glanced around, and his excited mind quickly calmed down.

Inside the Universe, Lin Yuan was absolutely invincible, sweeping across everything, but on this Venerable Gu Ming Chaos Continent?

Let alone an Incarnation of the Pilgrimage Realm Peak, even true body masters comparable to the Sovereign Realm Experts would not dare to be too presumptuous.

Sovereign Realm Experts could indeed be considered Experts in the Chaos Void, but this was a Chaos Continent, a Chaos Continent guarded by a Chaos Venerable. It gathered a large number of Twelfth Order lives from the surrounding vast region, where Dao Realm Experts could be seen everywhere, and there were quite a few Sovereign Realm Experts as well.

There were even occasional Chaos Realm Experts passing by.

"Huh?"

"Someone is looking for me?"

Lin Yuan's expression stirred as he looked outside the inn.

"As soon as I came to this Chaos Continent, I cultivated bitterly here. Who would look for me?" Lin Yuan was quite surprised.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Yuan stood up and came to another area.

The interior of the inn was equivalent to a small world, divided into different areas.

"Greetings, my lord." The person seeking audience with Lin Yuan was a woman with soft eyes and a respectful posture.

Lin Yuan recognized at a glance that the other party was a Tier 11 life, and her cuffs were imprinted with the emblem of the Venerable Gu Ming Chaos Continent, meaning that this woman was under Venerable Gu Ming.

Of course, she was definitely not a direct subordinate of Venerable Gu Ming, but she was at least working for Venerable Gu Ming.

"What is the matter?" Lin Yuan asked directly.

"Reporting to my lord, half a year from now will be the 'Thousand Treasures Assembly' of Ming Chuan City. At that time, many rare treasures will appear. I have been ordered by the city lord to present a 'Thousand Treasures Records' to my lord, which records the treasures to be sold in this 'Thousand Treasures Assembly'."

The woman took out a booklet.

"Understood." Lin Yuan's expression remained unchanged as he took the booklet.

"Then this subordinate will take her leave." The woman immediately withdrew.

Lin Yuan looked through the various treasures recorded in the 'Thousand Treasures Records'.

The reason Ming Chuan City issued this 'Thousand Treasures Records' to him was naturally to give Lin Yuan sufficient time to prepare and raise chaos stone.

Knowing in advance the treasures that would appear at the Thousand Treasures Assembly, if there was anything he eagerly desired, he could naturally make preparations in advance.

"The expert behind the 'Thousand Treasures Assembly' of Ming Chuan City is Venerable Gu Ming. Its reputation is guaranteed, and the treasures that appear each time are extraordinary, attracting a large number of Experts from the nearby Chaos Void to participate."

Possessing the intelligence information of 'Cang Wei Yang', Lin Yuan had a good understanding of the 'Thousand Treasures Assembly'.

"This Thousand Treasures Assembly has 8,633 treasures, and their qualities are all very good."

Lin Yuan looked through them.

"5,311 Dao Realm secret treasures, 1,476 Sovereign Realm secret treasures, and six Chaos Realm secret treasures? As for the rest, they are all rare flowers and exotic fruits, special treasures, special Materials, and so on."

Lin Yuan watched. The treasures presented in just one 'Thousand Treasures Assembly' far exceeded the entire net worth of the Peak Sovereign Realm expert 'Cang Wei Yang'.

"Time Crystal: Contains rich Time Force. After use, the speed of comprehending the Time Rule is greatly enhanced, limited to below the seventh-layer realm of the Time Rule."

"Starting price: 800 chaos stones."

"Directly increasing the speed of rule comprehension? That is indeed rare." Lin Yuan took a closer look, "However, it is of no use to me."

Lin Yuan's comprehension of the Time Rule had long reached the ninth-layer realm, and it was only a step away from transforming into the Time Great Dao.

The Time Rule was a pillar rule, and the difficulty of comprehension was much simpler than the Space-Time Fusion Rule. Lin Yuan had comprehended the ninth-layer realm of the Time Rule long ago.

"Seven-Color Thunder Stone: A peculiar stone fallen from the Chaos Thunder Pool, containing the power of seven-color thunder inside, which has great benefits for Twelfth Order beings who walk the thunder path."

"Starting price: 10,000 chaos stones."

The Chaos Void had many peculiarities, where many conditions were required to enter.

Such as the Chaos Thunder Pool?

This place was filled with endless intent of destructive thunder, and only Chaos Venerables who walked the thunder lineage could enter.

In addition, separated by long years, the Chaos Thunder Pool would drop some stones, which were the Seven-Color Thunder Stones.

The Seven-Color Thunder Stone contained part of the aura of the Chaos Thunder Pool and could be called the source of thunder, which was very beneficial for comprehending the thunder path.

"The thunder path." Lin Yuan pondered for a while. He temporarily had no urgent desire for the thunder path.

"10,000 chaos stones are equivalent to the entire net worth of an ordinary Sovereign Realm expert." Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.

However, the Seven-Color Thunder Stone had a price but no market; at other times, even if one wanted to buy it, it couldn't be bought, so it was normal for it to be a bit expensive.

Lin Yuan looked through the treasures on the 'Thousand Treasures Records', and many treasures made him quite tempted, until he saw a certain treasure.

Lin Yuan's pupils shrank slightly.

This was a golden box with a mottled surface, which should have experienced long years.

At the lower left corner of the golden box, a complex pattern was imprinted. The moment Lin Yuan saw this pattern, he actually had a sense of familiarity.

"This is the imprint of the Xuan Huang Lineage?" Lin Yuan's expression was solemn.

He took charge of the Profound Yellow Secret Realm and was considered a successor of Your Majesty Xuan Huang. Naturally, he also had some understanding of the imprint of the Xuan Huang Lineage.

"This box originates from the Xuan Huang Lineage?" Lin Yuan guessed in his heart.

At the same time, he looked at the introduction of this golden box by the 'Thousand Treasures Assembly'.

"Unknown box: Contains aura fluctuations at the Chaos Realm level, unknown origin, unknown effect."

"Starting price: 30,000 chaos stones."

The golden box had been in Ming Chuan City for some time, and even Venerable Gu Ming could not determine the true origin of the box.

But solely relying on the Chaos Realm-level aura fluctuations inside the box, it was determined to be a Chaos Realm-level treasure, which was why it was priced at 30,000 chaos stones.

In fact, this price was considered very low among Chaos Realm-level treasures. Any Chaos Realm secret treasure could sell for 50,000 chaos stones, 100,000 chaos stones, or even higher.

"30,000 chaos stones. It seems Venerable Gu Ming does not know the true origin of this box." Lin Yuan thought to himself. Your Majesty Xuan Huang was a Peerless Great Saint after all.

How could a treasure left behind by a lineage of a Peerless Great Saint be worth only 30,000 chaos stones?

In fact, this was also very normal. Your Majesty Xuan Huang existed countless cosmic eras ago. Not to mention now, even in the era where Moyu Tower Master was located—

Information about Your Majesty Xuan Huang was extremely scarce.

Moyu Tower Master also learned of the existence of Your Majesty Xuan Huang from a certain ruin.

"30,000 chaos stones, it is indeed worth competing for."

Lin Yuan thought in his heart that other Twelfth Order Experts, including Venerable Gu Ming, could not figure out what the golden box was because they were not practitioners of the Xuan Huang Lineage.

But Lin Yuan was different.

He could completely give it a try.

The treasures left behind by the Xuan Huang Lineage that could be passed down to the present were definitely not simple, and their true value certainly far exceeded 30,000 chaos stones.

Slightly ordinary treasures would have long been worn away in the long years.

The deepest part of the Venerable Gu Ming Chaos Continent.

Venerable Gu Ming suddenly opened his eyes, his expression quite heavy.

"Gu Ming, what is wrong? Have you found out where the crisis comes from?" The Chaos Dragon Beast beside him immediately asked.

Some time ago, it foreknew the impending crisis, so it informed Venerable Gu Ming at the first instance.

"It has been found out." Venerable Gu Ming nodded, the heaviness on his face not decreasing in the slightest.

"What is the cause?" The Chaos Dragon Beast inquired.

"The slaughter between Shadow Demon Great Saint and Nine Phoenix Great Saint will spread to this region," said Venerable Gu Ming.

"Shadow Demon Great Saint and Nine Phoenix Great Saint?" The Chaos Dragon Beast was startled in its heart.

These two were renowned Great Saints. Ever since they first entered the Chaos Realm, they had been mortal enemies, competing all the way and stepping into the Great Saint Domain almost simultaneously.

Ever since becoming Chaotic Great Saints, these two Experts had engaged in a long-standing battle of slaughter and combat, affecting a large area.

This time, Venerable Gu Ming investigated the source of the nearby crisis and learned from a friend about the slaughter trajectory of these two Great Saints, which was very likely to pass through the area of the Venerable Gu Ming Chaos Continent.

The slaughter between the two Chaotic Great Saints, even if it was just the aftermath of their combat, would plunge the Venerable Gu Ming Chaos Continent into turmoil, and existences close to the Chaos Realm like the Chaos Dragon Beast would also be severely injured because of it.

This was still because the Chaos Dragon Beast knew how to move and dodge. Wherever Shadow Demon Great Saint and Nine Phoenix Great Saint passed during their slaughter, everything would collapse and be destroyed, and even the Universes nurtured by the Chaos Void would enter the great destruction stage early because of it.

Shadow Demon Great Saint and Nine Phoenix Great Saint had been fighting for dozens of cosmic eras, and it was unknown how many Universes had been caused to undergo great destruction in advance.

"Our luck is really bad; we happen to be within the upcoming slaughter range of the two Great Saints." Venerable Gu Ming was quite helpless.

The gap between ordinary Chaos Venerables and Chaotic Great Saints was very, very large. It was very difficult for a Chaotic Great Saint to kill a Chaos Venerable, meaning it was very difficult to completely kill a Chaos Venerable.

Chaos Venerables had many life-saving means after all.

"Indeed, the luck is very bad."

The Chaos Dragon Beast also figured it out and sighed.

The Chaos Void was boundless. Although the slaughter of the two Great Saints had a very wide impact range, casually affecting tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of Universes to enter great destruction in advance,

but in reality, compared to the entire Chaos Void, it was still insignificant. This was also the reason why the two Great Saints had been fighting until now without any Great Saints of the same level stopping them.

"Gu Ming, what should we do now?"

The Chaos Dragon Beast looked at Venerable Gu Ming. Logically speaking, the further away one hid from the slaughter between the two Great Saints, the better. Goodness knows whether one would fall into the center of the aftermath of the Great Saints' slaughter?

"I plan to drive the Chaos Continent to move as far away as possible."

Venerable Gu Ming said, actually if they abandoned the Chaos Continent now and fled directly, they probably wouldn't face any danger.

But the Chaos Continent was the painstaking effort of Venerable Gu Ming for nearly a hundred cosmic eras, and he was unwilling to give it up so easily.

The Venerable Gu Ming Chaos Continent was as large as several hundred Universes, and Venerable Gu Ming's internal Universe could not hold it.

Therefore, they could only directly drive the Chaos Continent to move, thereby avoiding the coverage range of the aftermath of the two Great Saints' upcoming combat.

Of course, the movement of a Chaos Continent was bound to be far inferior to Venerable Gu Ming fleeing by himself, but it was still a method after all.

Even if they still failed to escape the coverage range of the aftermath of the Great Saints' slaughter in the end, at least they would be far away from the place where the aftermath was heaviest, and the possibility of blocking it would be much higher.

"There is only this method left." The Chaos Dragon Beast nodded.

"This region will welcome destruction." Venerable Gu Ming said in a low voice.

As a Chaos Venerable, he still had the ability to dodge danger, but those Universes nearby, as well as the countless lives within the Universes, did not have this luck.
