"Such a powerful suppression from the world's principles. This is by no means the foundation of an ordinary Great Thousand World. My strength is being absorbed... Even the power of the Supreme Hell Plane is being drawn away..."

The instant Chen Chu stepped into what appeared to be an ordinary black world, an overwhelming force, enough to suppress all true spirits and instantly subdue a primordial star, enveloped him. Even a primordial overlord or monarch would find itself suppressed by the world principle. This startled Chen Chu.

Because of Boroedo and the others' downfall, Chen Chu had been mentally prepared, knowing this world wasn't as simple as it looked. However, he hadn't expected the suppression of the world's principles to be so intense.

In such a situation, Chen Chu instinctively tried to unleash his strength to break free, only to discover that no matter the power erupting from his body, or the Supreme Hell Plane energy swirling around him, everything was absorbed at an astonishing rate. The more it absorbed, the stronger the suppression became. The harder Chen Chu struggled, the faster he lost power, and the greater the world's suppression over him grew.

It was a complete death cycle. No wonder Boroedo and its companion had suffered defeat. This world was far too strange. Chen Chu's expression grew solemn, and behind him appeared the vague silhouette of a bronze bell.

Dong!

The deep and resonant toll of the bell echoed across heaven and earth, its invisible waves causing the suppressive world force around him to falter slightly. A blood-red eye opened at Chen Chu's brow, radiating immense suction.

Boom!

The blood light around him quivered, and the hell power within his body surged into his brow, flooding into the depths of the Hell's Eye, where it finally condensed into a quietly suspended blood-colored crystal core, like a flower bud. As the Hell Seed drew in all of his hell power, the phantom of the bronze bell behind him abruptly descended on him.

Dong!

The sonorous sound reverberated across the entire world, and the crimson palace that blanketed the skies vanished silently beneath the spreading invisible waves. The falling blood-red meteors in the heavens disappeared as well. The sudden change left many strong figures on the ground, who had been filled with excitement, momentarily stunned.

"The projection of the evil god's palace vanished?"

"What happened? Could it be that the evil god broke free of its capture and escaped...?"

At the same time, deep beneath the earth, or rather, in a deeper layer of the world, a Mountain Giant over five thousand meters tall lifted its head in excitement. Its three pairs of narrow eyes pierced the dim firmament, its tone filled with exhilaration. "Mbolak, Brother Chu Batian's aura has disappeared. I knew it. With his strength, how could he be suppressed? He is a powerhouse from the Eternal World, hahaha..."

Watching the agitated Boroedo, a figure in the shadows at a distance lifted its head gravely. In the black-hole depths of its eyes flickered a trace of excitement, its voice low. "Boroedo, restrain your strength. Do not let this world devour too much of you. Once Brother Chu Batian grasps the nature of this world and follows the signal to us, we will join him and tear open the barrier to escape together."

"Do not worry, Mbolak. I may be big, but I am not stupid." The Mountain Giant nodded.

While the two Hell Apostles waited in anticipation, in the outer space above, in the pitch-black void of the sky, planets drifted.

Chen Chu silently stood on a planet ten thousand kilometers across, condensed of black-gray rock. He looked like an ordinary man, black hair cascading over his shoulders, no aura of power on him. All of his strength was suppressed and sealed deep within by the Chaotic Bronze Bell.

This was the only way he could evade the world's scanning. Of course, that supposed lack of might referred only to powers foreign to this world, such as principles, laws, and divine abilities. Sheer physical strength, on the other hand, was another matter. Chen Chu's body, which had evolved to its present level, was different from principle-condensed true forms. Even without divine abilities or principles, his flesh alone was strong enough to smash true spirits.

This was why he didn't immediately tear through the barrier with brute force; his purpose here was to collect sufficient world origin. It also wasn't necessary to call upon stronger Supreme Hell power. If Alvaron descended, the great harvest from ripping this world apart and dragging it into Hell would surely fall to it. Since Chen Chu could guarantee his own escape at any time, he would never act so foolishly.

He glanced around at the pitch-black void, then fixed his gaze on a glowing sphere in the distance. "This world's structure is so strange."

Within sight, the dark void held many planets and asteroids, yet no signs of life. No stars, only barren, airless worlds. Even without unfolding the Void Death Pupils, Chen Chu could see that within several hundred light years, every celestial body seemed to faintly orbit around the glowing sphere ahead.

It was as though the countless planets in this world's outer space formed an unimaginably vast array. The core was the glowing sphere over a billion kilometers away, a massive world wrapped in a golden-blue atmosphere. That was where the origin, and likely Boroedo and the others, resided.

Thinking of this, Chen Chu bent his knees slightly, thigh muscles swelling, as pure and mighty strength gathered within him. With a single push of his foot...

Boom!

The planet shuddered. From its surface, a meteor crater spread at a speed visible to the naked eye, collapsing inward until the entire planet exploded beneath Chen Chu's foot. He shot out like a thunderbolt, instantly reaching several thousand times the speed of sound. Because space held no air resistance, his speed only continued to climb from the push of the recoil, like a comet streaking across the void.

Bang!

Tens of millions of kilometers away, the surface of a celestial body tens of thousands of kilometers wide collapsed, leaving a crater thousands of kilometers across. The tremendous impact melted soil and rock in an instant, blasting them outward in a blazing nuclear-like detonation. Fiery dust clouds swept across the surface, erasing everything.

Yet soon, the planet quivered again. A black shadow flickered across its surface and vanished, leaving the broken planet scattered as drifting rubble in the void. Relying on his invincible body, Chen Chu shattered dozens of planets beneath his steps, quickly drawing near to that immense world.

It was a colossal sphere wrapped in a thick atmosphere, over a million kilometers in diameter. From high above, one could clearly see oceans blanketing most of its surface. Of course, this vastness was only in comparison to the Blue Planet, which spanned mere tens of thousands of kilometers.

Under normal circumstances, a casual strike with Chen Chu's present strength could shatter a star, obliterating everything within tens of millions of kilometers and destroying an entire world. Yet as he neared this planet, he gradually slowed.

He keenly sensed that the closer he approached the world's center, the more a faint, invisible repulsive force pressed on him, steadily growing stronger. Had he already been exposed? Even after withdrawing all transcendent power, had this world still identified him?

Chen Chu narrowed his eyes slightly, halting atop a dead planet a hundred thousand kilometers wide, millions of kilometers from the golden-blue sphere. Just then, his gaze stirred.

On a crimson planet more than a million kilometers ahead, over a hundred thousand kilometers in diameter, a thin atmosphere shimmered, and within it, massive creatures moved.
