Volume 1 Chapter 47: The Origin of Chaos
Inside the icy domain, the mountains and rivers are majestic, with a dense spiritual energy that cannot be dispersed. Qin Luoyi keenly felt the extraordinary nature of this space. If it weren't for the presence of the peerless killing array, which is temporarily disabled for three days when the icy domain opens, this place would truly be a paradise for cultivation. Secluding oneself here for a hundred years would undoubtedly lead to rapid progress in one's cultivation.
Dahuo and Hei Di rushed out of the wrist space, excitedly saying that there was a chaotic aura inside, and they galloped forward with their hooves. Along the way, they saw some very precious spiritual plants and spiritual fruits, but didn't even bother to pick them up.
Qin followed closely behind them, his heart also racing with excitement. The primordial aura was a rare treasure of the ages, the most fundamental breath between heaven and earth, and even a single thread of it was extremely difficult to obtain.
The vast expanse of the icy domain stretched out endlessly, and after running for nearly an hour, Da Hei and Hei Di still had nothing to show for it. They slowly came to a stop, looking around suspiciously with puzzled expressions.
Qin stopped in her tracks, not just Da Hei and Hei Di, but as soon as she entered the icy domain, she also felt a faintly unusual aura. However, after searching for so long, that unusual aura still lingered without any change, as if the entire icy domain was filled with this aura, making it impossible for them to determine the specific direction of the Chaos Qi.
"That chaotic aura has been completely refined and infused into the entire Ice Domain, no wonder we can feel its presence but can't find it." The Black Emperor said with great annoyance a moment later.
If he really obtained a ball of chaotic air, even if it was only the size of a fingernail, his cultivation would definitely be able to advance to the next level. It's worth noting that his current cultivation is already extremely difficult to improve further, as the required heavenly and earthly spiritual energy and stellar power are too terrifying.
Dà Hēi is also full of regret on his face.
"What's over there?" Qin Luo Yi looked towards the west, a glint of sharp light flashing in his dark phoenix eyes.
In her Lingtai Cave, the originally quiet and still Hunyuan Tianzhu suddenly became scorching hot, emitting a faint green glow that pulled her body involuntarily towards the west.
Dahuo and Hei Di naturally didn't know about the changes within her, thinking she had discovered some treasure, they exchanged a glance and closely followed behind her.
Walking west for hundreds of miles, they arrived at a rather desolate place. The strange pulling force from the Hunyuan Tianzhu finally disappeared. Qin Luoyi stopped and when she saw the scene in front of her clearly, she couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Within thousands of meters, a piece of broken tile was left, and the whole place was charred. There were also remnants of arrays, obviously this place had suffered from a great fire in the past.
"This place was once a Dan furnace, with such fierce Dan fire that it drew the earth's core fire from the foot of Jintou Mountain to refine the elixir. The ground above was scorched, and underground was also completely charred." Da Hei Bi sniffed and his eyes flashed with shock.
Qin Luoyi was also shocked in her heart, unexpectedly using the Earth Heart Fire to refine the elixir. The master of the Ice Domain was indeed a big hand.
"I don't know what kind of pill he was refining, but he lost control of the fire and ended up burning the entire refining platform to this state." Someone who can refine 15th-grade pills definitely wouldn't be refining ordinary ones.
"The master of the icy domain has been gone for tens of thousands of years, it shouldn't be that the master's alchemy caused this place to burn. This land was destroyed no more than ten thousand years ago." The Black Emperor said with great certainty.
Qin's clothes fell, and his heart was shocked. The master of the ice domain was not there, so it should not have been possible for anyone to refine the elixir again, let alone ignite the earth fire. How could this place be burned? Could it be that someone had come here later and also refined the elixir here?
The existence that can refine the earth's core fire to make elixirs is definitely not an ordinary existence. Although she herself can refine 11th-grade elixirs, she only uses ordinary elixir fire. With her cultivation level, it's fundamentally impossible for her to control the terrifying earth's core fire.
"What a pity. Looking at this mess, it's clear that the attempt to refine the elixir was unsuccessful." Qin Luo sighed.
As soon as her voice fell, the Hunyuan Tianzhu in her body suddenly burst into a brilliant green light, and the bead also trembled slightly.
Qin's clothes fluttered in the wind, and a sharp light flashed through her phoenix-like eyes. She carefully looked around, feeling that there must be something here that could cause the Hunyuan Tianzhu to change like this.
Qin Luo Yi quietly passed a message to Da Hei, who also vigilantly looked around, only Hei Di was left in the dark.
A moment later, the primordial heavenly pearl in her body trembled even more violently, with a brilliant light illuminating the entire spiritual platform cave, to the point where she had an illusion that the primordial heavenly pearl was about to leave her body.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, in the central area of the alchemy arena, a faint glow burst forth from the ground, emitting an aura that was most fundamental to heaven and earth. In an instant, it transformed into a light source the size of a human head, moving at incredible speed towards the opposite direction of He Qinlai, swiftly disappearing into the distance.
"This is... This is the source of chaos!" Dahei excitedly shouted, spreading his hooves and chasing after it.
Hei Di also recognized the light group, it was indeed the source of chaos, the source of chaos was thousands of times more intense than the chaotic air, getting this thing, his own cultivation would definitely reach a terrifying height!
Hei Di let out a loud roar and charged forward as well. Its cultivation was higher than Da Hei's, and in the blink of an eye, it caught up to Hun Dun Zhi Yuan.
With a joyful and crazy stretch of its black claws, it grasped the Chaos Source in one swift motion. But little did it know that the Chaos Source it had just grabbed suddenly transformed into strands of light once again, slipping through the gaps between its claws with ease. In the distance, it recondensed into a glowing orb the size of a human head, and shot off towards the horizon at an even faster speed than before.
Heidi roared again and chased after him.
Dahuo also chased after him.
Only Qin Luo Yi stood still on the spot.
At this time, the Hunyuan Tianzhu inside her Lingtai acupoint not only shone brightly, but also rapidly rotated, producing a powerful suction force that even Hei Di had not detected, drawing the wildly running Chaos Source from afar.
Hei Di stared intently as the Chaotic Origin flew into Qin Luoyi's hands and merged with him.
"Ahhhroo!"
The black emperor, who had always been high and above, suddenly turned red with rage. Qin Luo's hands didn't even move, yet such a heaven-defying thing fell into her lap. How could it not make his heart ache like a knife cut?
Dà Hēi looked at it with wide eyes, a fierce glint flashing inside, and suddenly all the hairs on its body stood up: "What do you want to do? Don't forget, you've sworn an oath with the Heart Demon!"
To protect Qin Luo Yi from harm, he himself cannot harm her, otherwise the Heart Demon's oath will surely come true.
Heidi gritted her teeth in extreme annoyance.
Harming Qin Luo Yi is something she naturally can't do... but losing that thing just like this, it's really unbearable.
"So much of the origin of chaos, we three witnesses have a share, you can't swallow it alone." Black Emperor stared at Qin Luoyi with copper bell-sized eyes.
"What you see is what you get, the source of chaos has spiritual energy, you've already grasped it in your hands, but let it slip away, proving it doesn't recognize you, now it has acknowledged its master." In contrast to Hei Di's frustration, Da Hei was quite pleased with himself, gazing at him with a slanted glance.
No wonder the Ice Domain Gate opened several days in advance, it turns out that there is such a heaven-defying thing inside. Fortunately, Qin Luoyi has the Mixed Yuan Tianzhu on her body, otherwise this thing would have fallen into the hands of Hei Di. Here, its cultivation is the highest, with its small and petty personality, things that fall into its hands are impossible to take out again.
But Qin Luo Yi was different, it had a contractual relationship with him, and the more treasures he got, the better, the more against the sky, the better. When the time came, his cultivation would be high, and he would continuously advance in rank, so that it could live for a long, long time.
Hei Di was so anxious that he wanted to jump with rage, it wasn't just anything else, this was the source of chaos! It was as big as a human head, Qin Luo's clothes... Could she use it? And not be afraid of being choked to death?!
After the Chaos Origin entered his body, Qin Luoyi sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and focused on sensing the changes within his body, ignoring Hei Di.
The Chaos Source is a good thing, but her cultivation is too low, and she hasn't even condensed the Mysterious Mansion. Moreover, it's clear that the Chaotic Sky Pearl summoned it, and she's really afraid that if she's not careful, her body will undergo some kind of undesirable transformation. Not to mention, the Chaotic Sky Pearl wants to absorb the Chaos Source, but the Chaos Source is clearly resisting - from the moment it emerged from the ground, it started running away.
These two are both against-the-heavenly existence, only hoping they won't fight each other in their own body, otherwise the one who will suffer is probably herself.
She locked her divine consciousness tightly onto the origin of chaos, feeling it flow along her palm, from the meridians straight to the Lingtai acupoint, and then quickly merged with the rapidly rotating Hunyuan Heavenly Pearl, the Hunyuan Heavenly Pearl still didn't stop spinning, the entire Lingtai acupoint was filled with boundless radiance.
In this process, some strange memory fragments appeared in her mind.
It turned out that the origin of chaos was obtained by the master of the ice domain in an accident outside. After knowing it was the origin of chaos, he wanted to refine and fully absorb the chaotic air inside his body. Who knew that the origin of chaos was extremely difficult to refine? If not for opening up the special space of the ice domain before refining it, and setting up a world-class law array both inside and outside, the origin of chaos would have escaped during its refinement.
The origin of Chaos is too against the heavens, the master of the Ice Domain has been refining it for hundreds of years and still can't turn it into a Dan. Fortunately, before refining the Dan, he had left behind a small portion, with his own powerful cultivation, slowly unraveling and absorbing it into his body. Even so, his cultivation is all the way to high song, rapid progress.
After a thousand years, his lifespan had come to an end. Unfortunately, the Chaotic Source of the Earth's Core was still not refined. Before he sat in meditation, he used all his remaining cultivation to forcibly refine the Chaotic Source and merge it into the entire Ice Domain. He also set up a formation that would open once every hundred years. Finally, he thoroughly sat in meditation. The Earth's Core Fire continued to refine that strand of Chaotic Source.
Although it was just a fragment of memory, it shocked Qin Luoyi. According to the historical records of Penglai Fairy Island, the Ice Domain had existed for tens of thousands of years, and its master was a powerful being from tens of thousands of years ago... In other words, this piece of Chaos Origin, after he sat in meditation, was continued to be refined by the earth's core fire for tens of thousands of years, until now, it still hasn't formed a Dan!
What's even more shocking is that relying on the earth's core fire, in these tens of thousands of years, the source of chaos actually gave birth to some spiritual intelligence.
A shocking scene emerged in my mind... The source of spiritual intelligence, the Chaos Origin, burst out of the Purple Furnace, causing the originally suppressed earth-core fire to suddenly erupt from beneath the ground, burning everything in this area clean. Fortunately, there was a powerful array set up by the Ice Domain Master around us, so the flames did not spread further and only destroyed several thousand meters nearby, while other areas were spared from the ravages of the earth-core fire.
The more she knew, the more Qin Luo Yi was shocked. She had not expected that the origin of chaos would be so difficult to refine, but today it was absorbed into her body by the Hunyuan Tianzhu.
The Amethyst Furnace... This place was burned by the Earth's Core Fire, and the array set up by the Ice Domain Master was also destroyed. The Chaos Source has been absorbing the essence of the Earth's Core Fire from underground all these years, but the Amethyst Furnace can actually withstand the Earth's Core Fire, it's probably even more precious than she imagined before, and who knows what material it was refined with.
After a moment, the rapidly spinning, dazzlingly radiant Primordial Heaven Pearl finally slowed down, and the green light gradually disappeared. The Chaos Origin was completely devoured by the Primordial Heaven Pearl.
Qin Luo Yi used her divine sense to carefully examine the Hunyuan Tianzhu, and found that even though it wasn't emitting light, its color was an even deeper shade of green than before. It quietly hung within her Lingtai acupoint... Thinking about how earlier it had absorbed the Earth's core fire, which hadn't been refined in tens of millions of years, into the pearl, this fact left her both shocked and delighted.
She withdrew her divine consciousness from the Lingtai Cave, and with a thoughtful expression on her face, she was still pondering what the Hunyuan Heaven Pearl actually was when the Black Emperor let out a low whistle towards her.
"Ao wu, Qin Luo Yi, we have a share in this encounter. The source of chaos, you can't swallow it alone."
The big black disdainfully looked at it, with a demon oath in front of him, and was certain that it only dared to bark, but did not dare to take action.
Qin patted the black emperor's head with a sigh of regret: "Although it is inside me, you also saw that even you can't catch it, how can I let it out?"
He shrugged his shoulders, looking helpless. The Dark Emperor was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.
The origin of chaos, and it just brushed past like this!
"There are still two more days, you can go around and find something good, who knows." Dahei chuckled at it.
"Next time I find something, it must be mine. Whoever steals from me again, I'll fight her." Unable to obtain the source of chaos, Hei Di could only give up.
"Huh? Who stole your stuff? It came running over here on its own accord." Da Hei raised his head, a mischievous glint in his eye.
He was struck in his sore spot, and the Black Emperor became even more depressed.
"Someone is coming." Qin Luo Yi looked into the distance, narrowing her phoenix eyes and said: "You all temporarily go to the bangle inside to avoid for a while."
A figure clad in divine rainbow colors flew over from afar.
Dà Hēi took a glance and hummed softly: "Why avoid him? He's arrived just in time. That scoundrel Dòng Tiān Fú, I was just thinking of finding him, and he's delivered himself to my doorstep."
"To avoid is also his avoidance, I, the Emperor, have lived for tens of thousands of years, only others have given me the privilege of yielding, where has it been that when I see an ant coming, I still have to yield its way?" Having lost the source of chaos, the Black Emperor was filled with resentment, and was worried about having no place to vent his anger, glaring fiercely at the divine rainbow getting closer and closer.
