Chapter 497: Sanctifying the Dao of Chaos

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Chaotic World Tree was too huge that if it were to manifest itself, it would’ve burst his inner world. The power contained in it was naturally terrifying as well.

It was currently plundering the World Tree of this Sea of Chaos at an extremely rapid pace.

Jiang Ming remained seated. His mind was integrated into the process. As the World Tree grew rapidly, his own mind and will was also nourished and enhanced at the same time. The enhancement was above the limits.

This made Jiang Ming become even more excited. With a swift turn, he integrated himself entirely into the origin of his World Tree.

As time flowed, Jiang Ming’s heart shook and revealed a joyful look on his face.

!!
The shackles of his soul had been shattered. He had broken through the confinement and elevated into a higher level, the Chaos Realm!

This elevation was alongside the nourishment of the World Tree. However, even though the World Tree was still rapidly growing, the improvement of his primal soul had become extremely slow.

‘I thought that it would be extremely difficult to advance into the Chaos Realm!’ After the exhilaration, Jiang Ming even had a feeling that this was somewhat a child’s play.

He didn’t manage to improve even when he was in the Hongmeng Primordial Land. However, he was able to surpass the limits here instead.

‘Alas, the Chaotic World Tree! It’s truly my supreme treasure of Dao Enlightenment indeed!’

Jiang Ming still didn’t get up but instead, comprehended the growth and changes that were brought upon the World Tree.

Time passed by slowly before the World Tree finally swallowed the entire Chaotic Tree of the galaxy here.

‘It’s been one whole decade.’ Jiang Ming finally stood up and couldn’t help but lament. To him, ten years of seclusion in the real world was already considered a very long time.

As he focused his gaze, he discovered that his World Tree had replaced the original World Tree here. In the midst of the endless space of the Sea of Chaos, its countless incomparably green branches were swaying around. A single tiny branch was already reaching more than a trillion light years in length. Such an enormous tree had almost occupied one percent of the Sea of Chaos already. This was extremely terrifying.

‘With the volume of the World Tree, it’s definitely thousands of times or even ten thousand times stronger than other sentient beings of the same level.’

Jiang Ming was extremely shocked himself. On the contrary, when Jiang Ming looked at the small Chaos, where Xinghe Universe was located, in front of him, he already knew that it was actually a chiliocosm that had been nurtured by the former World Tree. It used to be located within the internal space of the World Tree all the while but it had now been integrated into his own inner world.

Because of Jiang Ming, the small Chaos remained undisturbed.

‘If the World Tree wants to complete itself perfectly, it will still need to nurture its own chiliocosm. What about the Xinghe Universe?’ Jiang Ming frowned as he pondered.

With a slight thought, Jiang Ming directly teleported Pan Wang, who was meditating back in the galaxy, to where he was.

This expert noticed it almost immediately and had a shocked look on his face. Just as he was about to strike, he realized that the person in front of him was Jiang Ming and that the surrounding area was filled with chaotic air currents. He couldn’t help but become shocked as he said, “Fellow Daoist Jiang, did you just teleport me into the Chaos?”

“I have something to discuss with you.” Jiang Ming smiled. “I’ve brought you over on my own accord. Please excuse me for my actions.”

“I don’t even dare to!” Pan Wang who was still shocked, couldn’t help but ask, “Fellow Daoist Jiang, may I ask what realm are you currently in?”

“Glancing through the entire Chaos would be a mere thought.”

“A mere thought and you’ll be able to see through the entire Chaos. Hiss… this is really unimaginable!”

“With your talents, you’ll be able to reach such a stage in the future as well.”

“Can I?” Pan Wang shook his head. “When I advanced into the King Saint Realm, I could already feel that my potential had been exhausted. I can no longer go further, even if it’s just a subtle improvement.”

“Well if that’s the case, I’m here to bestow a great fortune upon you.” Jiang Ming smiled.

“Fellow Daoist, what great fortune are you saying?” Pan Wang became excited. The greatest intention he had now was to improve his cultivation base and check out the world of the higher level. He had long lost interest in the cycle of the mundane world, grudges and feuds. Hence, apart from protecting his own race, what he thought of most was to improve himself.

“This small Chaos in front here is the internal space of the World Tree. With the great Dao being shackled in there, it’s natural that the improvement of your cultivation base is limited.”

“Hold on, fellow Daoist Jiang. Are you saying that this here is the internal space of the World Tree?” Pan Wang was flabbergasted.

Wouldn’t this be equivalent to having opened an internal world and breed living beings within? Even with his temperament, Pan Wang was feeling confused as well.

“Yes you’re right.” Jiang Ming guffawed. “This World Tree is at the supreme Chaos Realm. It has truly reached the limits of the Chaos Realm. It wanted to transcend the Chaos and sanctify the supreme great Dao but instead suffered a backlash and died. Its original self was withering and the internal spaces within were naturally shrinking gradually. That is why there are limits towards your cultivation base. It’s also the reason why there can only be one universe in this galaxy of yours. It’s the last ray of life after its death. However, if this ray of life was to fail, this place will become a place of extinction, a place of death.”

These were some of the information that Jiang Ming had come to understand after his own World Tree had devoured the World tree of the galaxy here.

If he hadn’t come here, there would only be two scenarios unfolding here. One of them would be the Chaos Universe Annihilation Beast completely devouring the entire Chaotic Tree and the Xinghe Universe would be destroyed. The other scenario would be the Chaotic Tree lost its vitality and the galaxy here destroyed.

Whichever the scenario was, it basically meant the end of this place.

Jiang Ming also understood what had happened to the Valley of the End here. It was because when the Chaotic Tree was suffering a backlash and withered, the ripple effect had affected the Valley of the End. Hence, it caused the area which was originally opened near to the origin of the World Tree to shrink. It became a huge valley in which all experts that were beyond the King Saint Realm died, leaving only a relic behind.

Upon hearing Jiang Ming’s remark, Pan Wang was once again in a daze. The Valley of the End, the Chaos Universe Annihilation Beast, the World Tree transcending and withering, and the inner world. Even a person with insight like him had a feeling that he was listening to myths and legends.

“The original withered Chaotic Tree is now replaced by my World Tree. This place here will also be transformed into a small Chaos space, where no living beings can exist. I’m thinking of moving the Xinghe Universe of yours into the real Sea of Chaos. From there on out, the shackles of the great Dao would be unraveled and there would no longer be a restriction. Whoever has the ability would be able to advance into the King Saint, Lord Saint or even the Chaos Realm. Fellow Daoist, what do you think?” Jiang Ming asked.

“Fellow Daoist, let it be as you’ve said!” Pan Wang gave a jolt and hurriedly nodded his head.

Pan Wang knew that it was a gesture of politeness that Jiang Ming would ask for his opinion. Hence, how could he still not know what was good and what was not? Moreover, once his universe was moved over, he would be able to continue improving his cultivation base.

He cheered inwardly but asked with hesitation, “Will there be a difference between the internal and external Chaos? Once we move to the external Chaos, will our universe be able to withstand the invasion from the Chaos?”

“Don’t worry.” Jiang Ming said, “I will place your universe under the World Tree, which will provide a certain amount of protection.”

As Jiang Ming said so, the immense power of his Chaos Soul had surrounded the Xinghe Universe with just a thought. Everything leapt through in the air, going through barriers. Even Pan Wang and his own figure was quickly turning into illusions.

When they reappeared, they were already standing atop of an incomparably wide and endlessly long river of stars. In fact, it wasn’t a river of stars, but a single tree branch.

After Jiang Ming stood firmly, he raised his arms and pointed with his finger. A bubble appeared in the distance and it began to swell rapidly, stirring up an infinite amount of chaotic airflow in a blink of an eye, before ending up transforming into a terrifying Great Universe.

However, the chaotic airflow was incomparably violent. It was trying to annihilate the universe but was blocked off by a green luminance. The ranging chaotic airflow quickly calmed down and became gentle.

Pan Wang who appeared right next to Jiang Ming, saw the whole process. He couldn’t help exposing the shocked look on his face.

After quite some time, as Pan Wang looked up and down, he couldn’t help twitching the corner of his mouth fiercely.

‘This right below me is a branch? The universe that I am in is just a tiny ball below this tree? I can’t see the entire appearance of the tree even with my current cultivation base? The branch beneath my feet contains thousands of times more power than me?’ Pan Wang’s perception of the universe was completely turned upside down.

“Only now can I be considered to have opened my eyes, to have seen the great Dao!” Pan Wang sighed continuously. There was a joyful look on his face. “I feel the disappearance of the supreme shackles which have been suppressing my cultivation base. It has completely disappeared! This feeling… It feels like I’m a dragon cruising through the void.”

Buzz… Right this very moment, Pan Wang’s aura actually began to soar, directly breaking through the limits of the early stage of King Saint, advancing into the middle stage. Surprisingly, it didn’t end there, but continued rising rapidly.

Because of the elevation of his cultivation base, Pan Wang had also attracted a large volume of chaotic air flow towards his body, becoming sustenance towards his improvement.

Jiang Ming waved, directed a wisp of the creation qi from the World Tree infusing into Pan Wang’s body, causing his aura to sky rocket up to the peak of King Saint Realm.

Jiang Ming nodded his head and smiled. This explosive elevation of power was due to the accumulation of Pan Wang all these while. In other words, it was because of Pan Wang’s incomparable talent and aptitude.

Following that, Jiang Ming shifted his focus towards another truly talented person of the ages walking out of Xinghe Universe. He was Xi.
