As they constantly descended, the storms in the astral wind layer turned more intense. The howling winds resembled the stampede of ferocious beasts. It even made people feel that the astral winds on the surface would only become more terrifying.
Everyone's Yuan Qi expenditure rapidly increased in the middle of the astral winds. The strong winds swept at them like sharp blades, but at that moment, the howling winds intensified. Terrifying hurricanes suddenly appeared out of nowhere and swept everyone in.
Fire Cloud Divine Lord's protective Yuan Qi immediately gave way. The speed at which he took out his defensive artifact was just a little too slow, but his body was immediately lacerated by the hurricanes. It made his expression change.
If it was a martial artist with a weaker cultivation base, he would have silently disappeared in the astral wind layer at this moment.
Apart from Sacred Horizon Divine Lord, Eclipse Arhat, and Primordial Chaos Daolord, who were the Divine Lords with the highest cultivation levels, the other Divine Lords were more or less injured by the sudden hurricanes. Following that, everyone used their means to continue descending by relying on defensive techniques or artifacts.
However, no one had any thoughts of turning back. The existence of this landmass appeared extremely strange in the primeval universe. Even if it was a land of death, they would not give up until they explored it. Furthermore, the intense astral winds might be a natural protective barrier. If that was the case, there was definitely a rare treasure here.
Just as these Divine Lords began to find it difficult, the astral winds suddenly vanished. A boundless land appeared in front of everyone. Weathered boulders and mountains towered high above the land. Gusts of sand swept past them from time to time. The wind howled, and an extremely ancient aura enveloped the land.
At the same time, the ancient aura exuded a strange and sinister feeling.
Over the endless years, they might very well be the first batch of people to step foot on this land. At the instant they stepped on the land, everyone had a strange feeling. It was as though a pair of eyes was staring at them.
At that moment, there was a sudden bang that alarmed everyone.
They looked in the direction of the sound and were immediately rendered speechless.
Yi Yun's cauldron had landed on the ground.
In such an atmosphere, how could they not shudder in fear when Yi Yun's cauldron landed on the ground and produced such a loud sound? After all, it was such a strange place. When others first came to this place, they would not even dare to breathe loudly. Yet, he had caused such a commotion the moment he arrived. This Yi Yun sure was bold!
Yi Yun crawled out of the cauldron and saw the Divine Lords looking at him from afar. However, he thought nothing of it. He was not on the same wavelength as these Divine Lords. Instead of keeping a low profile, he might as well do whatever he wanted. If he really triggered something, he had the Ascending Dragon Cauldron to protect his life. He would definitely not be the one at a disadvantage.
Fire Cloud Divine Lord frowned when he saw Yi Yun's unscathed appearance. Most Divine Lords had suffered minor injuries in the Stellar Winds, but Yi Yun was completely fine. The artifact was truly powerful.
A strange glint flashed in Fire Cloud Divine Lord's eyes. He was already interested in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron.
"Everyone, there's probably something odd about this landmass. Be careful," said Sacred Horizon Divine Lord.
With that, everyone walked forward together.
Walking on the continent, there were weathered rocks everywhere, and it was very easy to get lost. Apart from rocks and sand, there seemed to be nothing else here. There were no plants, and there were no other living things. The group only felt that it was incomparably quiet here.
At that moment, a faint gray beam of light suddenly flew past them.
After walking for so long, they finally saw something else. Sacred Horizon Divine Lord, who was walking right in front, was quick to react. He immediately extended his hand to grab it.
A powerful invisible suction force appeared as the gray beam of light was forcefully pulled back. Then, Sacred Horizon Divine Lord grabbed it.
"Could it be a Chaos Gem?" a Divine Lord's eyes lit up as he asked anxiously.
These Divine Lords had encountered Chaos Gems in the primeval universe before, but as they were not proficient in Primordial Chaos laws, their speed was greatly limited. In the vast cosmos, Chaos Gems had gained sentience. They would flee the moment they saw people. They found it difficult to grab a Chaos Gem. Up to this point in time, each of them only had about four or five Chaos Gems.
In fact, the Chaos Gems they obtained could not be called gems. Instead, it was more appropriate to call them grains. This was because most of them were the size of sesame seeds. The largest was only the size of a rice grain.
Even such a pocket-sized Chaos Stone was extremely precious in their eyes.
If there were Chaos Gems on this continent, it would be much easier to capture them.
Therefore, it was not only the Divine Lord who spoke, the other Divine Lords also revealed looks of curiosity and anticipation.
"It's not a Chaos Stone." Sacred Horizon Divine Lord shook his head and said, "But it's no ordinary rock either. It's the most primordial rock that formed when the Universe was first formed. After billions of years of being contaminated by nebulous Primordial Chaos, it also contains the power of Primordial Chaos laws."
Sacred Horizon Divine Lord spread out his hand. It was a gray rock the size of a pigeon egg, but its weight was incomparable to that of an ordinary rock. It was as heavy as a mountain.
Upon hearing that it was not a Chaos Stone, the Divine Lords could not help but feel disappointed. However, when they looked at the gray rock again, although it was far inferior to a Chaos Stone, it was still a rare treasure. Firstly, in terms of size, it was much bigger than those Chaos Stones the size of sesame seeds.
Using this gray rock, one could similarly absorb grandmist aura and comprehend the Grandmist Laws.
Perhaps only on this continent would such a special rock appear.
Sacred Horizon Divine Lord put away the rock, and after they proceeded a certain distance, a few more rocks appeared. Immediately, a few Divine Lords charged forward.
When one of the Divine Lords approached the special rock, he suddenly conjured a mirror. When the special rock was reflected by the mirror, it strangely vanished. However, the special rock in the mirror remained.
The Divine Lord immediately smiled. He extended his hand and swiped it, causing the special rock in the mirror to appear in his palm.
"There's such a miraculous spatial artifact?" Yi Yun was somewhat amazed. These Divine Lords were all hegemons, so they naturally had their own unique aspects. This spatial artifact was very extraordinary.
The other Divine Lords that were vying for it had ugly expressions.
"West River Divine Lord, isn't it a little unethical of you to rely on an artifact to win?" The person who spoke was a Divine Lord that was leading the charge.
West River Divine Lord continued smiling as he said, "Obtaining special rocks depends on one's ability. Having an artifact is naturally a part of one's ability. Don't you agree?"
The Divine Lord's expression sank as he snorted coldly without another word.
Following that, a few more special rocks appeared. One was obtained by Eclipse Arhat, while the other two were obtained by Primordial Chaos Daolord. With his Primordial Chaos laws, his speed was even faster than the Divine Lords. The other Divine Lords found it difficult to compete with him.
However, there were times when eight or nine special rocks would appear at once. All the Divine Lords were doing their best to vie for them.
At that moment, Fire Cloud Divine Lord suddenly asked with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, why aren't you taking action?"
He was asking Yi Yun. From the beginning, Yi Yun had been following behind as though he was watching a show. He watched coldly as the Divine Lords used their various means while he remained motionless, as steady as Mt. Tai.
He had originally planned on attacking Yi Yun while Yi Yun was unable to hold back, but Yi Yun remained motionless. He had waited all this time for nothing, and finally, he lost his patience and could not help but speak.
"It's nothing. I'm just not interested in these trivial items," said Yi Yun.
He said it nonchalantly, but it left the hegemons taken aback.
They had been vying for something, but Yi Yun actually called it 'trivial'? He even said he was' not interested '?
Following that, these people laughed. They knew that Yi Yun's strength was limited and that he did not dare join the fray. They had a general understanding that although Yi Yun had pursued Primordial Chaos Daolord, he had never dared to fight him head-on. Instead, he had used his speed advantage to open up a distance and constantly harass Primordial Chaos Daolord. Once Primordial Chaos Daolord closed in on him, it would be useless even if Yi Yun hid in the cauldron. He would be captured along with the cauldron.
However, Yi Yun was young and full of vigor. He refused to show weakness, so he said those words that put on a brave front.
"Hahaha, you actually said these are 'trivial items'? I wonder what impressive items you obtained this time? " Fire Cloud Divine Lord quipped. Although the gray rocks were far inferior to Chaos Gems in quality, they were superior in terms of quantity and size. Any one of them in the Sinkhole would be a treasure that would be fought over by hegemons!
Yi Yun could not be bothered with Fire Cloud Divine Lord. He did not say a word. Only the corners of Primordial Chaos Daolord's mouth twitched as veins protruded from his forehead.
These people still did not know what Yi Yun had obtained. Only he knew. He was so infuriated that his lungs were about to explode!
Yi Yun obviously did not fancy these special rocks. He had already obtained countless Chaos Gems along the way!
The reason why the other Divine Lords had obtained very few Chaos Gems was because there were too many monks and not enough gruel. Furthermore, Chaos Gems moved very quickly and were sentient, allowing them to avoid others. However, Yi Yun was different. The Chaos Gems were delivered to him on their own accord. Furthermore, each Chaos Gem was bigger than the last. In Yi Yun's hands, a Chaos Gem the size of a sesame seed was the smallest!
Therefore, Yi Yun might not even fancy a sesame-sized Chaos Gem, so how could he fancy these special rocks?
As for Primordial Chaos Daolord, he had seen as many Chaos Gems as Yi Yun had seen. However, all he obtained were a few the size of a rice grain. Now, he was vying with these people for these special rocks!
Yi Yun's words were like a ruthless slap to his face. How could he not be infuriated?
However, Primordial Chaos Daolord was naturally not foolish enough to tell others that Yi Yun had a large number of Chaos Gems. These Chaos Gems would eventually end up in his hands.
"Eh? Fellow Daoist Primordial Chaos, what's wrong? You don't look too good. "
Sacred Horizon Divine Lord suddenly said. Primordial Chaos Daolord's face twitched violently. Following that, his expression turned stern as he said coldly, "Nothing!"
