Time continued to pass. In just twenty days, Chen Chu completely refined the Chaotic Bronze Bell with the aid of attribute points, achieving the highest realm of unity between man and treasure.

In the depths of the Chaotic Imperial City,, a demon god stood within the core world. It was four hundred thousand meters tall, with three faces and ten arms. Its primary arms were pressed together, while the other eight were stretched wide, each holding a supreme treasure divine weapon condensed from demon god imprints.

They held a blazing golden-white Great Sun, a purple lightning spear, a gray wheel of death, and black chains forged of souls. A black stele with the power of suppression, a purple-black primordial imperial seal, and an ancient bronze bell floated alongside them.

Only one of the eight arms behind Chen Chu remained empty. It radiated supreme majesty as it stayed slightly raised, as though supporting the sacred double-faced divine wheel.

As he felt power surging through his body, the three faces—one real, two illusory—showed faint smiles. "Coming to the human divine regions was truly a wise choice."

The human form differed from the colossal beast form. Cultivation was harder without devouring-evolution abilities, especially in terms of resources.

Only battlefields like the planar battlefield and the Ancient Battlefield could satisfy the demand of his rapid growth. As he reflected, Chen Chu's vast true form began to shrink until he had returned to his human form.

He looked forward and the void silently split apart, forming a white passage. Shi Feirou stood at the tunnel's end.

Chen Chu smiled. "Feirou, sorry for keeping you waiting."

Chen Chu had sensed Shi Feirou's request to meet a few days ago, but he had been trying to comprehend the chaos principle and refine a supreme treasure.

Shi Feirou's figure flickered as he entered the inner world of the imperial city.

"Big Brother Chen, your cultivation!"

She stared at the black-haired young man before her. His hair was tied high; his imperial robe draped over his shoulders; and above all, the unconcealed aura of the late stage of the true spirit level was emanating from him. Her face could not help but betray her shock.

He had advanced from the middle stage to the late stage in just twenty days. Wasn't this far too outrageous? Even knowing Chen Chu's terrifying talent, even having seen countless prodigies across ten thousand years, Shi Feirou was still shaken.

Moreover, wasn't this seclusion meant only to heal his injuries?

"There's no need to be so surprised." Chen Chu smiled. "I happened to refine the chaotic bronze bell during this seclusion, achieving unity between man and treasure, and also comprehended the chaos principle it contained."

He finished, "So my cultivation naturally improved as well, advancing by a minor realm."

Shi Feirou's lips parted, her heart even more shaken at his calm tone. For a moment, she could not even find words.

He refined a chaotic-level supreme treasure in twenty days, and further, reached the unity that even primordial beings needed centuries or millennia of seclusion to achieve...

Only after a long moment did Shi Feirou exhale softly, a bitter smile spreading across her face. "...As expected of Big Brother Chen."

"Enough, let us not dwell on such a disheartening topic. Big Brother Chen, here are the Life Crystals you wanted." Shi Feirou produced a white bracelet.

When Chen Chu accepted the spatial bracelet, Shi Feirou said softly, "Life Crystals are considered common transcendent resources. The merchant guild of Xingyun Province raised colossal beasts as medicinal material, so extracting and collecting them all took some time."

She looked at the thoughtful Chen Chu, and asked hesitantly, "Big Brother Chen, is it not enough?"

Chen Chu withdrew his awareness from the bracelet and nodded. "It is indeed a little inadequate."

The bracelet contained more than a hundred thousand Life Crystals, but most were ordinary level 4 and level 5 crystals. There were fewer at level 8 or level 9. Altogether, once converted, they would amount to about 1.3 to 5 million attribute points. However, that was considerably less than the twenty million required to fuse two broken world-creation-level divine weapons.

Shi Feirou spoke earnestly. "This is a simple problem. I will immediately notify the Flamewheel Dynasty to dispatch legions from each realm to sweep across the vast worlds surrounding the divine region. As long as the mutated beasts or colossal beasts meet the requirements, they will be slain to collect Life Crystals for you, Big Brother Chen."

Chen Chu nodded. "Then I'll trouble you to oversee this matter, Feirou."

Shi Feirou replied, "Big Brother Chen, there's no need to be too polite. This is what I should do."

The two continued speaking for a while longer, as Shi Feirou reported on matters outside. Aside from trivialities in the Chaotic Imperial City, she informed Chen Chu that human powerhouses had discovered strange movements recently. Several peak civilization experts near the city had been stirring.

This had already drawn the attention of a true emperor, and Shi Feirou had been instructed to warn Chen Chu to be careful when he emerged from seclusion. The mobilization of those experts might be related to the supreme treasure that had appeared not long ago. After all, the guardians of three peak civilizations had all fallen in that battle.

Normally, deaths during battles for treasure were expected. But it was unusual that the human race had only suffered minor losses in that war. Anyone with sense knew there had to be hidden secrets behind it.

The movement of these civilization powerhouses was very likely aimed at Chen Chu.

After Shi Feirou finished, her face still solemn, Chen Chu smiled unconcernedly. "It's nothing serious. As long as they don't provoke us first, we need not bother with them. By the way, Feirou, I plan to continue seclusion to stabilize my cultivation. Once the next batch of Life Crystals arrives, notify me."

"Alright, Big Brother Chen." Shi Feirou nodded.

Once her figure faded away, the white passage that only Chen Chu could open closed and vanished.

"Are they preparing an ambush with Second or Third Primordial Heaven powerhouses, or some other scheme?" A contemplative look flickered in Chen Chu's eyes.

But then he smiled dismissively. He reached into the void and tore it apart, allowing Hell's Wheel, wreathed in savage crimson spikes, to emerge once more.

No matter what those peak civilizations intended, all Chen Chu needed to do was keep growing stronger.

He planned to visit Boroedo's Great Thousand World before the next shipment of Life Crystals arrived to see if he could gather enough world origin to raise his cultivation to the peak of the true spirit level.

After returning, he would enhance the Eight Desolations Creation Doomsday Halberd to world-creation level. Then, even an assassination attempt from a Third Primordial Heaven powerhouse would not frighten him. If the Dragon Emperor had already awakened by that time, who would kill whom remained to be seen.

Of course, it would be ideal if he obtained enough world origin to break through to the primordial level in one breath. Yet given his terrifying foundation, breaking through from the late stage of the true spirit level to the primordial level in one step would require a truly staggering amount of world origin.

Thus, even though Boroedo claimed that world origin in that world was plentiful enough to drive primordial beings mad, Chen Chu did not hold much hope.

Boom!

Chen Chu's long hair whipped about as a blood-red eye opened upon his brow. Endless crimson light surged within, like hell condensed into his gaze.

A torrent of hellish blood-light poured from between his brows and into Hell's Wheel, igniting its savage red runes. They flared one by one and tore free, flying into the void.

The twisted runes spun and converged, gradually forming a hideous, blood-red head of a Hell Devil. The blood-colored slab left by Boroedo, serving as the coordinates, glimmered at its brow. The Hell Devil's head opened its monstrous mouth and swallowed Chen Chu whole.

Boom!

Endless blood-light erupted. Time and space collapsed as Chen Chu and the Hell Devil's head vanished, leaving only the dimming Hell's Wheel adrift in the void.

Blood-light flickered in the depths of rifts where time and space intertwined, streaking past countless worlds and dimensions and racing toward an unknown, mighty world. Though wrapped within the power of the Supreme Hell Plane and unable to see past it, Chen Chu could feel that he had passed through thousands of worlds in just that short moment.

His heart tightened.

The supreme planes are terrifying!

The more he learned of the realms beyond the mythical world, the more he realized the immensity of existence, and the more reverence he felt toward eternity. If the four supreme planes, though not at the eternal level, already wielded such power, then how inconceivably vast was eternity itself?

The scene ahead shifted as he ruminated. He suddenly emerged from the depths of dimensional space. Chaotic qi howled around him with a ferocity that could annihilate anything below the primordial level. A sphere of light wrapped in black mist floated slowly ahead of him.

Judging from the formless waves it released, it appeared to be no more than an ordinary Great Thousand World. But could an ordinary Great Thousand World force Boroedo, a Hell Apostle at principle level, and Mbolak, born of a shadowed special world, to cry out for help?

Whoosh!

Chen Chu drew on the power of the Supreme Hell and wreathed himself in blood-light before crashing into the black world. Yet he felt no obstruction nor rejection at the moment of contact.

Meanwhile, in a vast and prosperous land, countless powerful humans raised their heads to see a blazing red meteor streaking across the sky. As the meteor burned across the firmament, the vague outline of a colossal blood-red palace materialized, shrouding the entire world.

"Another evil god from the outer heavens has descended!"

"This one is stronger than ever before. The projection of its palace enveloped the whole world!"

Excited voices resounded across every corner of the land.
