The gray Chaos Gems were each like a condensed pocket world. They were likely the few Chaos Gems Yi Yun had found when he first arrived in this space.
"Oh? This is … "
Yi Yun's pupils constricted slightly. He discovered that not far from the few Chaos Gems was a pure black crystal the size of a finger knuckle. The surrounding Chaos Gems were like planets orbiting the sun, orbiting the black Chaos Gem.
This scene made Yi Yun draw a deep breath. Just like how Spirit Jade had grades, Chaos Gems had grades as well. The Chaos Gem the size of a finger knuckle was a grade higher than the Chaos Gems around it.
The Chaos Gems condensed at the birth of a Universe had huge differences in energy grades.
Before Yi Yun transmigrated, the Universe where Earth existed began with a Big Bang. Yi Yun did not know what the birth of the Universe was like, but it was probably earth-shattering. As such, the closer one was to the center of the Big Bang, the denser the Chaos would be compressed. The Chaos Gems would naturally be of higher quality.
This was truly a gift from the heavens. Who could have imagined that there would be so many Chaos Gems left behind in a primeval universe that was sealed in the ancient battlefield?
However, after hundreds of millions of years, the Chaos Gems had evolved an innate consciousness. If he were to approach them rashly, they would scatter and flee. All Yi Yun could do was carefully expand the Primordial Chaos space and envelop them before slowly pulling in the net.
In the extremely chaotic space of nebulous Primordial Chaos, expanding the Primordial Chaos space that spanned such a large area was a huge challenge for Yi Yun. He felt his Yuan Qi drain like flowing water, but all he could do was grit his teeth and persist.
Time slowly passed. Yi Yun spent thirty minutes and expended forty percent of his Yuan Qi before he managed to gather the Chaos Gems to a radius of ten feet. Then, Yi Yun controlled the Ascending Dragon Cauldron to devour the Chaos Gems. If not for the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, Yi Yun would never have dared to do so. It was just too dangerous to expend forty percent of his Yuan Qi in this space. Furthermore, if Primordial Chaos Daolord were to charge back, Yi Yun would have died a terrible death.
"Oh? The Primordial Chaos turbulence in the cyclone seems to have strengthened greatly … "
The Primordial Chaos cyclone formed a space of its own. Yi Yun suddenly realized that the laws in the space were turning more and more chaotic. Furthermore, the laws did not seem like the Connate Great Dao of the space. Instead, they appeared to have been added by humans.
Yi Yun immediately understood that this was likely the handiwork of Primordial Chaos Daolord. The old bastard wanted to make the Primordial Chaos cyclone turn more and more chaotic, making it difficult for him to persist.
At this rate, the Primordial Chaos cyclone might even explode continuously, and an ordinary person would definitely die a tragic death.
After understanding Primordial Chaos Daolord's intentions, Yi Yun sneered. Unfortunately, the old bastard had underestimated the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. How could he have imagined that the Ascending Dragon Cauldron in his hand was a weapon left behind by the twelve ancient Ancestor Gods? Furthermore, it was infused with the soul of the Dragon Emperor.
Typically, when a martial artist controlled a defensive Dharma treasure, they would have to expend a large amount of Essence Qi. In the end, they would find it difficult to defend. However, Yi Yun was different. Due to the Ascending Dragon Cauldron's absolute defense, Yi Yun only needed to expend an extremely small amount of Yuan Qi. No matter how powerful the nebulous Primordial Chaos cyclone was, he was confident he could withstand it.
Yi Yun sealed the cauldron's mouth and ignored the Primordial Chaos turbulence outside. He turned his gaze to the few Chaos Gems in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron.
There were a total of five Chaos Gems. Four of the smaller Chaos Gems slowly revolved around the larger Chaos Gem in the middle. The space around them was affected by them, turning deep and dark. From afar, it really looked like a mysterious galaxy floating in the universe. The hazy gray light emitted the beauty of eternal laws.
Upon seeing this scene, Yi Yun momentarily hesitated. He could not bear to destroy the Chaos Gems.
On careful thought, these Chaos Gems had experienced an infinite amount of time before they slowly gained sentience. In a certain sense, they could even be considered a form of life.
They were lifeforms born from the Universe's Great Dao. They were born at the beginning of the Universe's formation. Once they were destroyed, they would never appear again unless the next Universe was born.
In contrast, lifeforms made of flesh and blood, including humans, could continue reproducing as long as they were provided with food.
If he were to destroy these Chaos Gems, he would be destroying the primeval Universe's accumulation over billions of years. It would be too much of a pity.
With this in mind, Yi Yun changed his mind.
With Primordial Chaos Daolord outside, he was in desperate need of strength. He could not give up on these Chaos Gems, but he could take a compromise. He could absorb half the energy in the Chaos Gems and leave the rest. That way, he would not destroy the Chaos Gems.
After all, time was meaningless to the Chaos Gems. In this space filled with nebulous Primordial Chaos, these Chaos Gems could slowly absorb the worldly essence and recover after a long period of time.
After Yi Yun had such a thought, the Primordial Chaos laws he cast unknowingly transmitted his goodwill.
With the passage of time, the five Chaos Gems seemed to sense his goodwill. They no longer resisted Yi Yun, nor did they flee. Instead, they slowly floated over and gently revolved around Yi Yun.
Yi Yun cultivated in Primordial Chaos laws, so he shared the same origins as the Chaos Gems. The scene of one large and four small Chaos Gems revolving around Yi Yun was extremely harmonious. At that instant, Yi Yun felt like he had transformed into a Universe, perfectly fusing with the primeval Universe.
As the Chaos Gems revolved around him, the nebulous Primordial Chaos powers constantly gathered in Yi Yun's body. It was mixed with the blessings of the Chaos Gems.
The nebulous Primordial Chaos energy was perfectly compatible with the energy in Yi Yun's body. There was no obstruction when he absorbed it. He did not even need to refine it. It could directly flow into his meridians.
If not, the refinement and absorption process would result in the loss of a great deal of energy.
This discovery left Yi Yun pleasantly surprised.
He originally planned on losing half the energy so as not to destroy the Chaos Gems. But now, he realized that due to the perfect compatibility of the energy, he did not suffer any losses even if he gave up half the energy. Instead, the reduction of the refinement process allowed him to absorb the Chaos Gems at a much faster speed.
At this speed, he would only need a few days to complete his cultivation.
The nebulous Primordial Chaos power essence that contained the blessings of the Chaos Gems rapidly accumulated in Yi Yun's body, constantly increasing his strength.
Previously, Yi Yun had used twelve years to go from the peak of the mid-stages of the Supremacy realm to the peak of the Supremacy realm. Although the River of Forgetfulness's water had taken nearly a hundred years, Yi Yun had cultivated to that point in one fell swoop. It was inevitable that his foundation would be unstable.
But now, after the nebulous Primordial Chaos power cleansed his body, the unstable areas of his foundation were slowly being consolidated.
The nebulous Primordial Chaos was as heavy as a star. It sank into Yi Yun's dantian, which was the most stable foundation.
And while Yi Yun was hiding in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron and cultivating in peace, Primordial Chaos Daolord's array had been set up outside the Primordial Chaos cyclone for five days.
Over these five days, Primordial Chaos Daolord had expended quite a bit of his energy.
Now that the array was operating stably, there was no longer a need for Primordial Chaos Daolord to inject his Yuan Qi. With the passage of time, the laws in the Primordial Chaos cyclone would definitely turn more chaotic.
At that moment, Primordial Chaos Daolord was looking at the Primordial Chaos cyclone's entrance. His perception was unable to penetrate it, so he had no idea what was happening inside.
However, with the Primordial Chaos cyclone in such a chaotic state, the punk would not be able to last much longer even if he had a top-grade defensive artifact.
Primordial Chaos Daolord coveted the opportunities Yi Yun had. As long as he obtained what Yi Yun had, he could attempt a breakthrough to the Godly Monarch realm.
"Wait another ten hours. I'll be in peak condition before entering to finish this punk!"
