(Brothers, it's a new month, I'm looking for a monthly vote)
Sword Sharpening Mountain Lord!
Black mark!
God-Devourer!
Chen Zong guessed that there was a connection between the two, but he couldn't be sure because he lacked sufficient information. However, he could do a thorough search after returning to Taihao Mountain. Perhaps he could find some clues.
As for now, he had to hurry back to Taihao Mountain as soon as possible.
Thanks to the increase in his Essence, Qi, and Spirit, Chen Zong's flying speed increased even though his cultivation level didn't increase. His speed in the Void Shuttle also increased, which was beneficial for his journey.
Time flew by.
Year after year passed. Chen Zong finally arrived at the back of the third border and was close to Taihao Mountain.
Fortunately, it took less than a hundred years.
Originally, Chen Zong estimated that it would take more than a hundred years to cross the three borders and arrive at Taihao Mountain. However, due to the continuous increase in his cultivation level and the awakening of the Tide Dragon, Chen Zong's comprehension of the Space Dao was astonishing. His Doctrine Spirit had already been nurtured to the Perfect Realm.
In addition to some unexpected circumstances, Chen Zong's speed greatly increased. As a result, he used a short sixty years to get close to Taihao Mountain.
The faster the speed, the shorter the time, the better.
The Chaos Region was right in front of him. When he was only at the Fourth Realm, he took the risk to barge into the Chaos Region. Although he encountered many dangers, he still made it through safely.
Now, he was about to barge into the Chaos Region again.
Compared to the last time, his strength had increased by many times.
The Chaos Region's environment was very special. The space was relatively weak. Once one's strength was too strong, it would cause the space to shatter and form spatial cracks and other things. It was extremely dangerous. Therefore, there wouldn't be anyone too strong in the Chaos Region.
Simply put, for Sixth and Seventh Realm cultivators, the Chaos Region was like a grave that could bury them at any time. Even if they were in a hurry, they would rather go around it than cross it directly.
Chen Zong was at the Fifth Realm. As long as he was careful, he wouldn't have to worry. Without hesitation, Chen Zong directly barged into the Chaos Region.
In the Chaos Region, there were 18 bandit groups. However, the most powerful bandit groups were only at the Fifth Realm and were listed on the Divine King List. However, they were not in the top 100.
Chen Zong was not afraid of such strength.
Dozens of years ago, Chen Zong already had the strength to enter the top 100. Now, dozens of years had passed. Chen Zong's strength had improved a lot, reaching a very high level. It was easy for him to enter the top 100 of the God King List.
However, Chen Zong didn't issue any challenges and kept his ranking at the top 1,000.
His powerful strength made Chen Zong even more unruffled.
As soon as he entered the Chaos Territory, Chen Zong immediately sensed the spatial ripples here. They were indeed different from other places. They were very clear, very active, and very chaotic. There was a sense of aimlessness.
If one had to make a comparison, the spatial fluctuations in the Chaos Territory were like boiling water.
In such a place, it was easier to shatter the space and it was also easier to comprehend and cultivate the Way of Space.
However, in terms of the Way of Space, Chen Zong had already cultivated to the Complete Level of Pregnant Path Spirit. This was the ultimate level. He couldn't improve any further unless he had a breakthrough. However, the next breakthrough was the Origin. Condensing the Origin and controlling the power of the Origin would surpass the Fifth Realm and enter the Sixth Realm.
However, it was very difficult to break through from the Fifth Realm to the Sixth Realm. Chen Zong didn't dare to think too much about it in a short period of time.
Now, it was better to lay a good foundation and improve everything to the ultimate level of the Fifth Realm. Then, he would think about the Sixth Realm.
With a flash, Chen Zong moved forward silently in the Chaos Region. He was astonishingly fast.
The space here was weak and unstable. Spatial cracks could appear at any time. However, to Chen Zong, ordinary spatial cracks were no threat. After all, Chen Zong's mastery of the Way of Space had reached the ultimate level of the Fifth Realm.
Chen Zong seemed to be taking a stroll in the park. With a single step, he appeared in another place as if he had passed through the void. Although it was very easy, Chen Zong didn't get carried away. After all, this was a place where space was weak. If he was unlucky and fell into a deep spatial crack, Chen Zong wasn't confident that he could survive. Even if he could survive, he didn't know where he would end up.
"However, how exactly was this Chaos Region formed?" Chen Zong began to ponder.
There were many strange places in the universe. For example, the planetary belt he had passed through earlier had a unique force field and shockingly strong space. However, because the Night Dragon was sleeping there, the planetary belt completely disappeared after the Night Dragon woke up and left.
The Chaos Territory could be considered a strange place. So, how did it come to be?
One theory was that the Chaos Region was formed after a battle between two experts and two Saint level experts. However, another theory was that a Saint level expert who had grasped the Way of Space had left behind an opportunity and so on.
In the past, many people had entered the Chaos Region to search for the opportunity left behind by the so-called expert. Unfortunately, they hadn't found anything. Of course, they had found quite a few treasures such as spatial crystals.
Since they couldn't find the legacy left behind by the so-called expert, gradually, fewer people entered the Chaos Region to search for opportunities. In addition, it was also because of the Eighteen Territories of Bandits. They were extremely ferocious and were not to be trifled with.
Chen Zong continued to fly. As time passed, he was already halfway to the Chaos Region when he was intercepted.
The people who intercepted Chen Zong were bandits. Three Fifth Realm bandits.
The three bandits didn't hesitate at all. They immediately attacked, displaying their ferocity to the fullest.
Since they wanted to kill him, Chen Zong naturally wouldn't show any mercy. He unsheathed his sword in an instant and directly attacked.
The three bandits froze as if they had been immobilized. In the next moment, their Spiritual Souls were directly pulled out of their bodies. Their vitality was also sucked away in an instant.
Their Spiritual Souls scattered and their Spiritual Souls disappeared.
Now, with Chen Zong's strength, most King level experts were no match for Chen Zong.
After killing the three Fifth Realm bandits, Chen Zong didn't slow down at all. At the same time, he was thinking. Perhaps he could come back and clean up the bandits in the Chaos Region in the future.
As for now, it was better to return to Taihao Mountain first and ask the elders to help bring Yu Nianxin back from the Trade Wind Sect.
A few decades had passed. He didn't know how the Trade Wind Sect on Wanyuan Island was now. Was it safe and sound?
He only hoped so.
However, things didn't go as he wished. After Chen Zong killed the three Fifth Realm bandits, the other bandits gradually knew that someone had come and killed their men.
Action!
The experts of one of the top three Chaos Territories immediately took action to find the murderer.
The Chaos Region was their natural protection. It was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Sixth and Seventh Realm experts couldn't invade. As for Fourth and Fifth Realm experts, they weren't much of a threat to them. On the contrary, they would be killed.
Because of this, gradually, no one was willing to enter the Chaos Region to carry out missions. They didn't expect that someone would kill their men this time. They really didn't know what was good for them.
In order to hurry on his way, Chen Zong didn't deliberately hide his tracks. Of course, he didn't need to do so because he was 100% confident in his strength. If a Sixth Realm expert didn't make a move, he didn't need to fear anyone at the Fifth Realm. Moreover, even if a Sixth Realm expert did make a move, he had a trump card to fight back and even kill them.
On Wanyuan Island, whether it was the two Emperor level experts of the Eagle God Sect or the Sky-splitting Sword Emperor of the Wanyuan Sect, their deaths were enough to prove this point.
When the two sides met, a battle was about to break out.
Fight!
But it was a one-sided massacre.
Soon, more than a dozen Fifth Realm bandits were all killed by Chen Zong. Their spiritual souls and vitality were all devoured. Unfortunately, the feedback Chen Zong received was very weak. It couldn't bring any improvement to his energy. However, Chen Zong didn't give up because of this. Many little drops make an ocean. When the amount reached a certain level, it would cause a qualitative change and improve.
In addition, the treasures of these bandits all became Chen Zong's spoils of war.
Along the way, no matter what level or how many Fifth Realm experts came, they weren't a match for Chen Zong. They were all killed.
Finally, Chen Zong crossed the Chaos Region and flew quickly to Sword City outside Mount Taihao. After entering Sword City, he went back to Mount Taihao and returned to Tianguang Peak.
The first thing he did after returning to Tianguang Peak was to see the Peak Lord.
"You're finally back," the Tianguang Peak Lord said with a smile when he saw Chen Zong return.
It had been more than one hundred years, almost two hundred years, since Chen Zong left. It wasn't a long time for a Great Emperor level swordsman, but it wasn't short either.
When Chen Zong left, the Tianguang Peak Lord was actually very worried. He was worried that Chen Zong would be killed. With Chen Zong's talent, it was hard to say whether he could reach the Saint level in the future, but he could definitely become a top Great Emperor level swordsman, one who was even more powerful than the Tianguang Peak Lord himself.
If Chen Zong's name hadn't appeared on the Divine King List a few decades ago, the Tianguang Peak Lord wouldn't have felt relieved. This meant that Chen Zong was still alive and even more powerful.
It was a good thing!
Now, Chen Zong had finally returned, and he gave the Tianguang Peak Lord a feeling that he couldn't see through. Even though the Tianguang Peak Lord was sure that Chen Zong was still in the Fifth Realm, he felt that Chen Zong was unfathomable. It was very strange. What the Tianguang Peak Lord didn't know was that this was an effect brought about by the Single-Hearted Sutra breaking through to the Single-Hearted Sutra.
"I'm back." Chen Zong said with a smile. Fortunately, he had the source of sword work given to him by the Tianguang Peak Lord and the power of the sword mark left by the Sword Saint of Taihao. Otherwise, it was uncertain whether he could come back alive.
Even if he could, he wouldn't be able to come back in such a short time.
"Peak Lord, I have a request," Chen Zong said again.
