I have a volume of human scriptures

At this very moment, Yu Chen was still hidden deep within the primordial space of that desperate battlefield, devouring the primordial power of nearly an entire legion of the world.

During this process, every single second, he could feel the new world constantly expanding and growing stronger, with endless power surging from the depths of the world's primordial power. He could even see his own primordial world power constantly increasing.

—Although there would be some loss in the process of devouring the original world power of those hunters, the original power of such a vast world still allowed Yu Chen to cross the threshold of evolution time and time again.

After counting the years.

Just as the inexhaustible power of origin was about to be exhausted, Yu Chen had evolved to the fifty-ninth time.

Even facing the sixtieth evolution, Yu Chen felt that he could break through and sprint at any time.

However, he is still "accumulating".

Because the sixtieth evolution, like the fortieth evolution, will also encounter a terrifying "calamity".

Without a sufficiently strong foundation to support it, it is highly likely that it will be reduced to ashes in that terrifying light of calamity.

For Yu Chen now, there is no longer any pressure regarding time—after all, the connection between the Primordial World and the beings of the Three Realms has long been severed, and the Yellow Bracelet, the inner demon in the Primordial World, can no longer harm the beings of the Three Realms.

As for his strange transformation and that decaying and withering power, Yu Chen wasn't particularly worried.

After all, even if the sky falls, there are always tall people to hold it up.

In the current chaotic sea of ​​time and space, those powerful ancient beings have existed for countless millennia, possessing immense power and being incredibly strong and terrifying.

With them around, Yu Chen has no reason to worry about the nature of that decaying and withering curse.

Therefore, over these tens of thousands of years, his mindset has been quite peaceful. He is preparing to fully absorb all the world's original power before breaking through the "sixtieth" bottleneck.

Achieve the title of "Legion Commander".

In the endless chaotic sea of ​​time and space, there is no such thing as "realm". The only way to advance in all worlds is through evolution.

The number of times a world evolves can also roughly represent its combat strength.

After the sixtieth evolution, the "Legion Commander" can be considered a hegemon even in the vast and chaotic sea of ​​time and space.

—Anyone capable of commanding an entire army on the battlefield of desperate situations is by no means an unknown figure, even within the Hunters' camp and the World Alliance camp.

More importantly, within the two major factions, once one breaks through the sixtieth evolution and reaches the level of "Legion Commander," it is equivalent to entering the upper echelons of the two factions and gaining some say.

This clearly demonstrates that the "sixtieth evolution" is a watershed moment that is extremely difficult to overcome!

Several hundred years have passed.

After the last wisp of the world's primordial power was completely diluted and devoured by Yu Chen, the new world had expanded to an unimaginably terrifying extent.

Compared to tens of thousands of years ago, it's like the difference between a firefly and the full moon.

At this moment, Yu Chen could feel an incredibly abundant and terrifying power permeating every part of his body.

If he were to face again the war that annihilated the legion tens of thousands of years ago, he was confident that he could contend with and suppress that Ink Lord Legion Commander.

This is his foundation. Even though he has not yet truly broken through to the level of a legion commander, with his increasingly profound and vast spacetime domain, Yu Chen's combat power cannot be summarized by the number of times he has evolved.

After he had devoured all the world's primordial power, he took a deep breath, and his eyes burst forth with endless divine light!
breakthrough!

The sixtieth evolution was triggered by him!
In that instant, the entire new world trembled. Whether it was the white jade-like world barrier, the endless starry sky within the new world, or all life within it, everything seemed to be draped in a golden glow at that moment!
That jade-like world body transformed towards a golden color!

Everything was wonderful and thriving.

But it was during this process that a pale light erupted from the depths of the world's origin, like a raging tide, threatening to completely engulf and destroy the entire world!

But Yu Chen had already experienced a "bottleneck" once, so he was not flustered or afraid at all.

All you could see was the endless power of the world's origin surging toward that pale light!

The two began to cancel each other out and melt away, vanishing into nothingness!
Time passed little by little, like millions of years had passed, yet also like a fleeting moment—this was the internal strife and collision of the new world, which could not be measured by time.

In conclusion, with the power of the primordial world still quite abundant, the pale light of tribulation finally ran out and dissipated.

But it was at that very moment, because he had already awakened the spacetime domain, that Yu Chen was quite acutely aware that just as the pale light of the tribulation was about to disappear, he caught a strange aura.

If he hadn't mastered the spacetime domain at this moment, he probably wouldn't have been able to detect it, and even if he had, he could only watch helplessly as that wisp of aura dissipated.

But now, he has forcibly frozen time at this moment using his spacetime domain.

That strange and eerie aura was forced to linger deep within his world.

Yu Chen frowned, conjured a projection avatar, took a step forward, and instantly appeared in front of that wisp of aura.

Then, he reached out and touched that wisp of breath.

In an instant, the moment his hand touched that wisp of energy, endless "thoughts" flooded into his mind.

Or rather, it wasn't a "thought," but rather... a kind of inexplicable enlightenment.

In this moment of enlightenment, Yu Chen learned some "secrets".

That is, "the truth of the calamity".

At that moment, he suddenly realized something.

If we compare the entire endless chaotic sea of ​​time and space to a huge container.

The countless worlds in the chaotic sea of ​​time and space are like the "liquid" contained in this container.

The total size of the world that the entire chaotic sea of ​​time and space can accommodate is limited.

In a normal world, it would be fine; no matter how much more there is, it would not be able to break through this limit.

But as the world began to evolve, the power they controlled grew stronger, and the world's body expanded... their status also rose accordingly.

Especially after breaking through the 40th evolution, each world that broke through the bottleneck was equivalent to thousands upon thousands of ordinary worlds!

In a sense, any number of worlds with fewer than forty evolutions could still be tolerated by the entire chaotic sea of ​​time and space.

However, once they break through the fortieth evolution, their status will change, and each of them will be a burden to the chaotic sea of ​​time and space.

Although a single world is almost negligible in the face of this endless spacetime, the burden of the chaotic sea can accumulate.

If the number is too large, it will still affect the stability of the chaotic spacetime.

After forty evolutions, each evolution will elevate the world's status and subject the chaotic sea of ​​time and space to even greater pressure.

Therefore, after the fortieth evolution, the number of worlds is limited—this is not a rule set by humans, but a mechanism of the chaotic sea of ​​time and space itself.

The light of calamity.

It is because of this mechanism that "screening" was created.

Only after enduring the baptism of the calamity light will one gain the recognition of the chaotic sea of ​​time and space, acknowledging the "pressure" this has placed on time and space itself.

After forty evolutions, every twenty evolutions will be subject to a "light of calamity" selection.

Once you pass through, you can advance to a higher level.

But if it fails, it will be reduced to ashes, leaving nothing behind.

In that instant, Yu Chen felt as if he were seeing a massive pyramid.

The lowest level is the newly born world that has not yet undergone any evolutionary cycles, while the highest level consists of those ancient beings.

Similarly, within this inexplicable thought, he also realized that all worlds that have exceeded the fortieth evolution are "finite".

In other words, if a world that has undergone more than forty evolutions reaches its limit, and the chaotic sea of ​​time and space continues to give birth to new worlds, the final result will be the collapse of the entire chaotic sea of ​​time and space.

That's why... there was a "war"!
That's how the two camps started their fierce battle and death struggle!
Aside from the inherent conflict between the two factions, this is also a "strategy" for maintaining stability in the chaotic spacetime.

Because every moment, a new world is born in the chaotic sea of ​​time and space.

And in the incredibly long span of time, even though these worlds did not devour their own kind, nor did they deliberately train in that spacetime vortex.

These worlds will continue to evolve.

Many of them manage to survive the "calamity" and, through the selection process of the chaotic spacetime mechanism, reach the fortieth evolution.

If there are no means to suppress or control it, the final result will be that the huge container of the chaotic spacetime will be burst by the endless liquid inside!

Ashes.

Therefore, the Desperate Battlefield was created almost naturally and with some intervention.

It can be said that this is both a means for the two major camps to compete for territory and a "last resort" to reduce the burden on the chaotic sea of ​​time and space by consuming the "world"!
At that moment, Yu Chen understood the "truth" behind everything.

But all he could do was remain silent.

Difficult to evaluate.

The fact that the two factions fought to the death was actually meant to deplete the existing world and pave the way for the birth of future worlds and the stability of the chaotic spacetime.

He let out a long breath, unsure of what to think.

These secrets should only be known to the "Ancient Ones" or those "Apostles" who have evolved more than eighty times.

However, because Yu Chen intercepted that wisp of "aura" from the "light of calamity" of that screening mechanism, he arrived at this conclusion through deduction and observation.

The truth about this war would probably be incredibly cruel and unacceptable to any world.

But there is no way to "stop" it, because if the Battlefield of Despair disappears completely, then as time goes by, the world will eventually crush the Chaotic Sea of ​​Time and Space!
Besides this, Yu Chen also gleaned some specific "data" from this aura.

The number of legion commanders that the spacetime chaos can withstand for more than sixty evolutions is approximately "around fifty thousand"; however, as the number of evolutions continues to increase, this number decreases accordingly.

By the time the eightieth "Apostle" reached that level, the entire spacetime was in chaos, and there were only a thousand "Apostles" that could still be accommodated.

As for those "ancient ones".

The number that the chaotic sea of ​​time and space can accommodate is not only in whole numbers but also in part—seventeen.

Adding even one more person would cause a terrifying blow to the entire chaotic sea of ​​time and space!

But after learning the specific quantities, Yu Chen frowned even more.

He knew perfectly well that among those in the third category, there were "Ancient Ones".

Otherwise, over the endless long years, these troublemakers, like rat droppings, would have been completely wiped out by the two major camps long ago.

—Although they possessed terrifying disguise techniques, they had also launched several large-scale operations for some purpose. If they hadn't been capable enough and hadn't had the support of an elder, they would probably have been wiped out in those upheavals long ago.

So the question is, why weren't the third category of "ancient ones" included in the "range" of seventeen?
Could it be that the chaotic sea of ​​time and space is giving them a break?
No.

It shouldn't be like this.

Even if the Chaotic Sea of ​​Time and Space had a clear will, let alone a lack of consciousness, it would be absolutely impossible for it to break free from this constraint.

Seventeen ancient beings are already the limit that the entire chaotic sea of ​​time and space can accommodate. If there is one more, the stability of the chaotic sea of ​​time and space will collapse.

So... it seems the problem lies with those "third categories" themselves.

Yu Chen's thoughts were in disarray. He shook his head, and his consciousness left the new world and returned to the outside.

At this moment, having broken through the bottleneck of the sixtieth evolution, his appearance in the new world has also undergone tremendous changes—his entire body is like being cast from endlessly shining gold. Although he still maintains a human form, he exudes an incomparably magnificent and terrifying aura, as deep as an abyss and as deep as a prison!
His entire body seemed to be covered in flowing golden flames, exuding boundless majesty!
—Commander!

This is the level of a "legion commander" who can lead 500,000 troops in both camps!

Yu Chen took a deep breath and manipulated the new world to leave the bottom layer of the original space and return to the battlefield of despair.

Now, he no longer needs to be subservient on the battlefield. He has the strength to crush ordinary legion commanders. Returning to the battlefield of despair, he naturally intends to continue to devour and evolve. Although the threat of the Heart Demon Yellow Bracelet has been temporarily relieved, Yu Chen has not forgotten the essence of the infinite evil withering and decaying curse that he saw in that last fleeting glimpse.

Furthermore, given that the inner demon Huang Zhuo already harbors deep hatred for him, improving his combat strength remains an urgent matter.

But as soon as it peeked out, Yu Chen's brows furrowed deeply.

Dead silence.

What he saw was a deathly silence, a silence that had fallen upon the once fierce and chaotic battlefield. (End of Chapter)
