The days of cultivation were very boring. There were many times when one could not feel any progress. It was as if one could see the future at a glance. However, the vast majority of cultivators, whether it was in terms of wisdom or perseverance, were far superior to ordinary people. Moreover, for them, cultivation had become a part of their lives.
No matter how boring it was, they would still habitually cultivate without any improvement.
It was the same for Zhou Hao. He was already used to such a boring and repetitive life. But unlike other experts, he could see himself improving every single day. After all, he could Sign-In to gain more comprehension of the Chaotic Origin Laws and improve his Chaotic Origin Talent.
Day after day, year after year.
Very quickly, five hundred years passed.
And 500 years in the Origin Ground of the Chaotic Origin World was equivalent to several hundred thousand years in the Origin World Cosmic Sea. And several thousand years in the Chaotic Origin Heart Image World.
During this period.
Luo Haiyi and the other three Patriarchs of the Luo Clan would occasionally return and bring Zhou Hao some news regarding the Black Mark Gate. For an ordinary person, thousands of years was already a long time, and the passage of hundreds of generations.
The Black Streak Sect had been around for a thousand years. When He Qing, the sect master, and the other core disciples of the first generation reached the end of their lifespans, the sect slowly declined. While there were some disciples who had cultivated the Black Streak Fist to the level of a National Guardian Spirit Master, they were still no match for a Spirit Master. Thus, one day, two thousand years later, the circle of Spirit Masters finally made a move against the Black Streak Sect. The Black Streak Sect, which had been around for two thousand years, was completely wiped out. Only a few core disciples survived.
After Zhou Hao learned of this news, he did not pay much attention to it. After all, the only people he cared about were He Qing and Luo Si. After they died of old age, he no longer cared about anything related to the Chaotic Origin Heart Image World.
The sofa in the living room.
Zhou Hao pondered.
Luo Hai Yi's visit this time, other than mentioning some matters regarding the Chaotic Origin Heart Image World, she also brought an important piece of news. That was this safe city located at the Starting Ground of the Chaotic Origin World could no longer defend against the invasion of Chaotic Origin Lifeforms. The main reason was that a Spirit Teacher expert who had lived for several tens of thousands of years had died several years ago due to injuries that could not be healed.
Without this strongest spirit teacher, by the time the next Chaotic Origin Lifeform came, nobody would be able to suppress those powerful Chaotic Origin Lifeforms.
And according to the records of this island's sacred palace, every thousand years, Chaotic Origin Lifeforms would attack the safe cities. Sometimes, there would be many of them, and sometimes, there would be very few of them.
There were still 300 years before the next Chaotic Origin Lifeform attack.
'It seems I have to increase the speed of refining the Chaotic Origin Lifeform!'
Zhou Hao muttered.
In this Starting Ground of the Chaotic Origin World, there were not many safe cities like the Island Sacred Palace. There were only ten of them. The closest city to this place was a total of a trillion kilometers away. Even a powerful spirit master who had tempered his body to 60% would require a hundred years to cross this distance. Furthermore, there were many places where powerful Chaotic Origin Lifeforms resided.
It could be said that …
The entire Origin Ground of the Chaotic Origin World was equivalent to the territory where Chaotic Origin Lifeforms were born. Only when they transformed into true Chaotic Origin Lifeforms would they be sensed by Chaotic Origin Overlords and other lifeform experts who had long transcended the Chaotic Origin Realm.
…
The next day.
Zhou Hao who had been bitterly cultivating for 500 years stepped out of his house. He arrived at the pavilion where Luo Haiyi had agreed to meet him yesterday. The news the latter mentioned had actually spread across more than half of the safe cities. Many spirit masters like Zhou Hao who had been bitterly cultivating had become active. They had no choice. After all, they only had 300 years. In such a short period, it was impossible for them to grow rapidly. They could only think of other countermeasures.
When Zhou Hao arrived, there were already seven to eight spirit masters at the pavilion.
They were basically at the World Realm level and were currently undergoing the refinement and transformation of the Chaotic Origin Energy.
Other than the three Old Ancestors from the Luo Clan who greeted Zhou Hao, the others merely glanced at him.
"Alright, everyone is here. I believe everyone should know about the news of Senior Cheng's death. There are still 300 years left. To those of us who have just arrived at the sacred palace not long ago, this is undoubtedly a nightmare. This time, I have invited everyone over to discuss what we should do next!"
Luo Haiyi was the first to speak.
A middle-aged man who seemed calm and experienced said, "What else can we do? Other than hiding, there is no other way. It is not as though the sacred palace has never encountered such a situation before. Those seniors who survived before have all found a safe place to hide. After all, the attacks from the Chaotic Origin Lifeforms will only last for a period. After the sacred palace is destroyed, they will leave!"
Another girl sighed, "We know all these. But the crux of the matter is where we can find such a safe place to hide. Many seniors might know, but it is impossible for them to tell us. A safe place can only accommodate a limited number of people. Furthermore, the more spirit masters there are, the easier it is for the Chaotic Origin Lifeforms to appear!"
"Right, that is the crux of the matter!"
The other spirit masters agreed.
Their eyes were filled with worry. The sacred palace had stood for countless years. The surrounding safe places had long been occupied by many seniors. As newcomers, it was hard for them to squeeze in. They could only search for a new safe place.
Luo Haiyi chuckled, "Everyone, please calm down. I do know of a place which I accidentally heard from a senior when I was doing a mission a hundred years ago. There is a natural cavern that can accommodate dozens of people in the Blood Crow Valley located more than 10,000 kilometers away from the sacred palace."
Hearing this.
The other spirit masters did not feel excited. Instead, they frowned.
They were clear that the sacred palace was located within a hundred kilometers of the safe city. That was the safest place. The moment it was beyond a hundred kilometers, it would basically be the territory of Chaotic Origin Lifeforms, much less more than 10,000 kilometers. Even some seniors who had tempered their bodies to 60% and above would not dare to casually enter that place.
Luo Haiyi saw the expression of the others and guessed what they were thinking. She shook her head, "Fellow cultivators, if we wish to survive this, how can we not take some risks? Furthermore, we still have 300 years. We can use this period to slowly get closer to that place and search for a safe route. At the same time, we can slowly improve our strength."
The other two old ancestors from the Luo Clan naturally agreed. And the other five spirit masters hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Zhou Hao did not have any objections.
Only then did Luo Haiyi reveal a smile, "Alright, then it's decided. Ten days later, we will set off. We will first explore the area 100 kilometers away. Currently, not just us, all the spirit masters in the sacred palace will be searching for safe routes. Hence, we might not encounter any danger."
The others nodded.
Indeed.
Under such an unexpected situation, the other spirit masters would definitely not be able to sit still. Even those seniors who knew where the safe zone was would have to double check if there were any Chaotic Origin Lifeforms around it. If there were, they would have to work together to eliminate them.
…
Ten days passed very quickly.
Zhou Hao walked out of the cultivation room. He revealed a grin on his face. During these 500 years of bitter cultivation and continuous check-ins, he had gained quite a lot. He had a deep understanding of the Chaotic Origin Law. If there was a Heavenly Bridge that corresponded to the examination of the Chaotic Origin Law, then he would have reached the third level of the Heavenly Bridge.
And the third level was actually a spirit master who had tempered his body to 30%.
A total of 100% was tempered. They were the palm, the arm, the body, the legs, the feet, and finally the head.
As long as he completed the transformation, he would become a true Chaotic Origin Lifeform. He would not be restricted by any laws. Even if he met a Chaotic Origin Lifeform, he could easily kill it. Of course, if he met a Chaotic Origin Overlord Chaotic Origin Lifeform, he could only flee.
Zhou Hao had tempered his body to 30% in 500 years. That was extremely shocking. Even experts like Luo Haiyi who were spirit masters could not even temper 10%.
Furthermore, according to his understanding, many seniors in the Sacred Hall could only temper their body to 10% every 10,000 years. Furthermore, as the tempering deepened, the time required would also increase.
'What a pity. If this matter did not happen, I would have been able to cultivate for another 5,000 to 6,000 years before becoming a true Chaotic Origin Lifeform!'
Zhou Hao shook his head. But he was still calm in his heart. After cultivating for so many years, no matter what kind of accident he faced, he could always deal with it with a calm attitude.
Furthermore, he had been staying in the Sacred Hall for the past 500 years without leaving. This time, he might as well go out and check if the rewards would be different.
After a moment.
After packing up, Zhou Hao left his room and arrived at the Eastern Great Gate of the Sacred Hall.
"Zhou Hao, over here."
Luo Haiyi waved her hand at Zhou Hao.
After greeting her, Xue Ying stood by the side and waited.
The three from the Luo Clan did not ask about Xue Ying's strength. It was mainly because the time was too short – a mere 500 years. If it were anyone else, they would only be at the bottom. They might not even have tempered their five fingers.
Not long later.
The rest of the people arrived one after another. There were obviously many Spirit Masters gathered at the eastern gate. In fact, there were many Origin World experts among these Spirit Masters. For them to be able to enter this place, all of them were peerless characters with shocking talent and monstrous luck.
Like the legendary Yuan from the Origin Continent, he had once reached this step.
"Let's go!"
Luo Haiyi said. The others followed suit. One could see that they had brought quite a few items with them. These items were all purchased from the Sacred Hall using Illusory Fruits.
Zhou Hao had naturally prepared some items. After all, the number of Illusory Fruits he obtained from Signing In 500 years was frightening. It's just that the items within the Sacred Hall were more ordinary. Even the Chaotic Origin Secret Techniques were crude. Like those supreme treasures, they could not be compared to the Chaotic Origin Armor rewarded by the system.
But it was better than nothing.
…
At the Starting Ground of the Chaotic Origin World, the suppression was extremely terrifying. Experts who had undergone 60% of their transformation would have to spend several hours just to travel 50 kilometers. For those like Luo Haiyi who had just undergone her transformation, her speed was even slower. She would have to spend more than half a day to travel 50 kilometers.
Even though there were very few Chaotic Origin Creatures within 50 kilometers of the Sacred Hall, it was still possible for unexpected situations to occur. Hence, many spirit masters were on high alert. Other than Zhou Hao's team that was searching for a safe route, there were other teams scattered around. Everyone had the same goal.
Half a day passed.
The group arrived at the cordon.
There was a barrier specially set up by the experts of the Sacred Hall. After crossing this barrier, they would enter the area where the Chaotic Origin Creatures were active.
"Everyone, raise your vigilance!"
Luo Haiyi could not help but shout out.
Including Zhou Hao, the eight of them began preparing for battle. Those who could enter this place were all experts. Even if their transformation rate was low, they had the necessary consciousness and experience.
The moment they stepped out of the barrier region.
The surrounding Chaotic Origin Energy became berserk. Zhou Hao could clearly feel that the energy had become both scorching and cold. The others had already put on the special protective armor that they had prepared beforehand. This protective armor could block off the corrosion of the surrounding energy to a certain extent.
Zhou Hao was not an exception. In reality, the Chaotic Origin Armor on his body could easily resist against the incoming energy. But for the sake of not exposing himself, he had also put on this protective armor.
And the deeper they ventured, the lower the range of their soul consciousness. After walking for about a thousand meters, under the cover of the towering ancient trees, even light seemed to have disappeared. The range of their soul consciousness was reduced to ten meters.
Zhou Hao frowned in discomfort. In the Cosmic Sea, he could rely on his Deity Energy and domain True Treasures to sense things within a few light years or even further. Even during ordinary times, his Deity Energy could sense things from an incomparably far distance. But now, he could only sense things within ten meters.
It was as if he had become an ordinary person.
Luo Haiyi and the others were the same. It was just that they were all experts and did not take long to adapt.
"Chi."
Suddenly, not far away, a wooden vine seemed to have come alive. It shot out at lightning speed and nimbly coiled around the ankle of a girl.
"It is a Wooden Vine Snake, a low-graded Chaotic Origin Lifeform. There are many vines on its surface that can absorb our flesh and blood. Hurry up and cut it off!"
Luo Haiyi shouted. She immediately activated a light blade and slashed down at the root of that Wooden Vine Snake.
The other spirit teachers took out their weapons and looked around vigilantly. Because the Wooden Vine Snakes would appear in large numbers and not just one or two. Clearly, they had walked into the range of the Wooden Vine Snakes.
Indeed.
In a few breaths of time, the surrounding trees came alive. Large numbers of wooden vines came entangling over.
"Blazing Blade!"
Zhou Hao reacted quickly. He immediately activated his secret technique, causing his Chaotic Origin Energy to be released. It transformed into many scorching flame blades that slashed down at those Wooden Vine Snakes. "Chi!
Chi! "
At that moment, more than a hundred Wooden Vine Snakes rushed over. But the air was suddenly filled with a green fog.
"It is a poisonous fog! Hurry up and put on your mask!"
Without Luo Haiyi's reminder, the others had already put on a custom-made mask. This mask was made using the feather of a venomous bird. It could withstand against the majority of the low-graded Chaotic Origin Lifeforms.
Actually, the strongest aspect of the Chaotic Origin Lifeforms was not their individual strength. Instead, it was their ability to pollute. The moment this polluting energy entered their bodies, it would destroy their bodies in just a moment. Only those parts that had been tempered and transformed could resist against this polluting energy. This was also the main reason why only 60% of the experts dared to leave the Sacred Hall Region to hunt for Chaotic Origin Lifeforms.
"Pu pu pu!"
Zhou Hao attacked once again after putting on his mask.
The flames that covered the world had almost formed a domain. It destroyed all the surrounding Wooden Vine Snakes. The Chaotic Origin Energy could transform all Origin Energies. And using the Origin Flames to deal with these Wooden Vine Snakes was clearly the best choice.
"Hurry up and leave this region!"
The more Wooden Vine Snakes died, the thicker the green fog in the surroundings.
After Zhou Hao and the others killed the obstructing Wooden Vine Snakes, they immediately rushed out of the region covered by the fog.
