Chapter 1733: Primal Chaos Wall
Apart from Qin Jiu and Gongsun Sanyang, Ji Feixian and Mo Du had also taken out some primal chaos objects to go deeper into the wall. The aliens weren't fools either. The god-grade objects they had were comparable with what the humans had. Some even took out primal divine stones to increase the speed at which they broke through the wall.
The many top-tier Gods started breaking through the wall as quickly as possible. None of them wanted to miss out on an opportunity like this. Outside the primal chaos world, those incapable of breaking into the wall were fated to be disappointed. The primal chaos world noiselessly vanished back into the void, leaving no traces behind.
The ones stuck outside felt their hearts ache. They all knew that this was an opportunity that would probably only come once in a lifetime. However, they wouldn't leave yet, as the two parties still had a war to fight.
Once again, a massive battle erupted, and experts from both sides perished. Although the aliens had fewer numbers, their combat strength was extremely impressive. One of them was strong enough to face two humans. Thus, they were able to fight the human army to a standstill.
The humans were, unfortunately, not united. They were split into many small groups, giving the aliens the opportunity to defeat these small groups one by one.
Meanwhile, Xiang Shaoyun was bringing the people on his warship through the primal chaos wall. He had thought that he could easily bring them all in, but he was mistaken.
When he reached the 10th layer, a large number of the Saints on his ship could not withstand the suppression of the primal chaos power. If they continued deeper, they would probably be crushed to death by the pressure.
Thus, Xiang Shaoyun had no choice but to leave them there and have them cultivate at the tenth layer. He would proceed with the others instead. The deeper they went, the stronger the primal chaos power and the less they could withstand.
"The primal chaos energy here is too pure and powerful. A person can just pick random spots to cultivate at for a bit, and they'll gain massive benefits," said Ling Ziruo with joy.
"Yeah. Without enough strength, you won't even be able to withstand the power here," said Song Tiandao.
Xiang Shaoyun continued to leave people at different layers as he advanced. At the 15th layer, a majority of the people had left the warship, leaving only the powerful Gods behind.
Even Xiang Shaoyun started to feel the pressure from keeping his profundity of primal chaos active for so long. After all, he was in charge of protecting the entire warship. If he withdrew his power, this would probably be where everyone else stopped advancing.
"Let me know if the pressure is too much for you," said Xiang Shaoyun to the others.
At the 20th layer, Scarlet Flame Monarch, Devouring Ghost, and Green Ghost couldn't take it anymore, and they were forced to stay there and cultivate. At the 25th layer, the three freaks and some fourth-stage and fifth-stage Gods couldn't withstand the pressure anymore.
Song Tiandao and Devil Concubine hung on with great difficulty, but that lasted until the 27th layer. They stayed there to cultivate. That wasn't surprising, as the two's cultivation levels were still comparatively low.
Xiang Yangzhan and Purple Lightning Marquis stopped at the 29th layer. At the 30th layer, Ling Ziruo and some other top-tier Gods were forced to stop as well. That left Xiang Shaoyun alone to continue advancing. He put away the warship and shrouded his body in a layer of primal chaos energy. Step by step, he approached the 31st layer.
The primal chaos power there was surging, as though he was walking in a five-colored cloud. His surroundings were dazzling, and as the profundity of primal chaos swirled around him, he felt an indescribable sensation. It was as though countless things were being created all around him. At the same time, destruction was happening all around him. The two powers, creation and destruction, continued to crisscross and create a magical sight.
Xiang Shaoyun had comprehended the profundity of primal chaos, so he was aware that he was looking at the essence of primal chaos. Of course, he still couldn't reach the level of the creation and destruction he was seeing around him because his comprehension was still at a rather low level.
Xiang Shaoyun paid no heed to the others. Neither did he continue advancing through the final two layers. Instead, he sat down cross-legged and started absorbing the primal chaos energy and comprehending the profundity of primal chaos.
He split his focus into two. His main body absorbed as much of the primal chaos energy as possible while his clone focused on comprehension. This allowed him to benefit far more than the others who were also within the wall.
His Desolation mantra was most definitely an incredibly ancient cultivation method. It granted him an impressive energy absorption speed. Primal chaos energy was practically pouring into his astral cosmos sea.
The primal chaos energy lived up to its reputation as one of the rarest powers in existence. The moment the primal chaos energy entered Xiang Shaoyun's astral cosmos sea, his cultivation started soaring.
At the same time, his comprehension of the profundity of primal chaos increased rapidly. The five elements supported and negated each other. The cycle of five elements was also the true meaning of primal chaos. As for how one would make use of the five elements to create and destroy, that would rely on one's comprehension.
He once thought of rebuilding Dong Ziwan's body, and he had gained a new comprehension that gave him a feeling that he might really be able to do it after fully comprehending the profundity of primal chaos.
Xiang Shaoyun did not stay at the 31st layer for long. Soon, he stood up and headed to the 32nd layer. When he left the 31st layer, his astral and devil cultivations had reached late fourth-stage God Realm. His growth had been astonishingly fast.
At the 32nd layer, the profundity of primal chaos was starting to create actual living beings. These living beings consisted of flowers, grasses, birds, and other animals. They only lived for a short period of time, undergoing the entire cycle of life in a matter of seconds.
Xiang Shaoyun sat down cross-legged and started absorbing the primal chaos energy and comprehending the profundity of primal chaos again. The energy in the 32nd layer was much more powerful. Before long, Xiang Shaoyun reached the peak of fourth-stage God Realm.
He was in no rush to break through. He continued accumulating strength and solidifying his foundations. Upon reaching a point of saturation where he could no longer absorb more energy, he allowed himself to break through, easily entering the fifth stage. Once again, his strength soared.
As for his soul, it had also benefited greatly. From witnessing the birth and death of the living beings around him, he witnessed the cycle of life and death. That gave him a vague yet profound comprehension, something that no word could describe.
In short, his comprehension of the profundity of primal chaos had reached a completely new level. Those without the Primal Chaos Physique were basically unable to get farther than the 30th layer. That included Mao Gangqiang and the other powerful aliens. Qin Jiu and Gongsun Sanyang were also stuck.
The 30th layer was their limit. As for Xiang Shaoyun and Dugu Qiubai, who could go beyond the 30th layer, a fortuitous encounter unique to them awaited. However, Dugu Qiubai had gained something different from Xiang Shaoyun because he had comprehended something different from the profundity of primal chaos. Nevertheless, he had also benefited as much as Xiang Shaoyun had from the wall.
