High Martial Arts: Gains one point of health per second, sweeping across the heavens.

Su Jie took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

He did not back down because his mindset was different now than before.

He used to think, "This is too difficult," but now he just accepts it.

After digesting the number "ten thousand Chaos Power", Su Jie seemed to suddenly think of something, and his brows furrowed slightly:

"System, something's not right. You just said the Gate of Transcendence is 'pushed open.' Then why do we need to refine it? Is there some benefit to refining the Gate of Transcendence?"

The system did not respond immediately, as if it was extracting some core data.

Push open a crack in the door, and you can cross that threshold. Once you cross it, your life will transform from eternal to transcendent.

But that's called "smuggling"—you squeezed in through a crack in the door, so you won't get any extra rewards.

In other words, the vast majority of transcendence methods can only turn Ten Wheels Eternal into a most ordinary first-tier transcendent being.

However, the three top-tier methods of transcendence are different. They involve accumulating and honing one's own skills to a level of combat power sufficient to shake the very will of the Chaos Sea's origin.

At that level, you won't need to squeeze through a crack in the door; you can stand tall and proud in front of it and push it open with a single blow.

When your peak combat power reaches 1000 Chaos Power, you can fully open that door.

The door will open for you, and the primordial will of the Chaos Sea will acknowledge your power.

The moment you step in, your life level will undergo a second transformation.

It's not just about "becoming a transcendent being," but directly becoming a second-order transcendent being.

Su Jie paused slightly in his breathing: "In other words, the ultimate goal of the three top-tier transcendence methods is 1000 Chaos Power. Reaching that number allows one to rightfully open the gate and become a second-tier transcendent being."

Yes, but that's already the limit of the three top-tier methods. After becoming a second-tier transcendent being, if you want to advance further, you can only rely on long-term accumulation, opportunities, and sudden enlightenment.

However, refining the gate to transcendence is different.

[Once you shatter that door with ten thousand units of chaotic power and refine it, the special energy contained within that door will be completely absorbed by your life essence.]

[After refining, you will directly become a third-tier transcendent being upon entering the Transcendent Realm.]

Su Jie's pupils contracted slightly.

Third order.

Even a difference of just one level is a world of difference in any realm.

He instinctively pressed further, "Is the third-tier transcendent being the highest level?"

Of course not. Once the first gate of transcendence is refined, your soul's essence will resonate more deeply with the primordial will of the Chaos Sea.

Before you achieve transcendence, the second door to transcendence will appear before you.

It is thicker and more unshakeable than the first one, and the power required to refine it is ten times that of the first one.

In other words, it requires 100,000 units of Chaos Power. If you can refine it, you will advance to the fourth-tier Transcendent Realm.

If you cannot refine it, the Gate to Transcendence will dissipate on its own, and you can still become a third-tier Transcendent.

[There's even a third door, requiring a million units of Chaos Power to refine and advance to the fifth rank. Each door requires ten times the power of the previous one, and with each door refined, your transcendence rank increases by one rank.]

After listening, Su Jie remained silent for a long time, as if he was digesting the numerical ladder.

Ten thousand chaotic power, one hundred thousand chaotic power, one million chaotic power, ten million chaotic power, one hundred million chaotic power, one billion chaotic power, one hundred billion chaotic power.

If he wanted to reach the level of a ninth-tier transcendent being in one go, the power he needed would be a number he had never even imagined before.

"System, has anyone ever reached the ninth-tier transcendent realm in one go?"

【No.】

The system's answer was straightforward.

Since its birth, the most powerful transcendent being in the Chaos Mother Sea has only refined four Gates of Transcendence, becoming a sixth-tier transcendent being.

After hearing this, Su Jie seemed to have heard something reassuring, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly.

"That's good."

What's so good about it?

"If no one has ever refined the fifth door, it means there's still a long road ahead. Only the roads no one has traveled before are worth walking."

"By the way, System, you just mentioned 'Chaotic Mother Sea,' a term I've never heard anyone mention before."

This chaotic sea, everyone simply calls it the 'Chaotic Sea'. Is the Chaotic Mother Sea you mentioned the otherworldly realm this chaotic sea refers to?

The system remained silent for a moment, as if considering how to answer the question.

Yes and no.

Su Jie raised an eyebrow slightly.

This chaotic sea of ​​yours can be called the Chaotic Sub-Sea, or the "Primordial Chaotic Island." And "Otherworld" is the general term your chaotic sea uses for the Primordial Chaotic Sea.

The Primordial Chaos Sea is the true Primordial Chaos Sea. It is boundless, without boundaries, without a center, and without end.

Your Chaos Sea is merely a floating "island" within the Mother Chaos Sea, with boundaries, outlines, and its own rules and order.

Su Jie paused slightly in his breathing, and only spoke after a moment.

"What about the Primordial Continent? What about those higher-dimensional universes, multiverses, and primordial universes? What are they respectively within the Primordial Chaos Island?"

The system paused, as if it were organizing a more complete framework.

You can understand it this way.

The Primordial Continent is the "central landmass" of the Primordial Chaos Island. It is the core of the entire island, and the island's order and rules extend outward from the Primordial Continent as its foundation.

The higher-dimensional universe consists of "reefs" surrounding the central landmass. They are much smaller than the central landmass, but still have their own foundations and ecosystems.

Each higher-dimensional universe can give rise to eight eternal beings, which are relatively stable components within the chaotic island.

The multiverse can be likened to pebbles, which are smaller and more fragile than reefs, yet still manage to maintain their shape in the chaotic currents of the ocean.

The multiverse can give rise to eternity, but it is very difficult for beings to have more than eight chakras.

The initial universe was like "sand" scattered along the edges of islands. It was the most numerous and the most easily eroded and altered by the chaotic ocean currents.

The initial universe could hardly have given rise to powerful eternity, but these are the most fundamental and widespread components of the entire island.

The Tianyuan Universe you once inhabited was but a grain of sand within it.

After hearing this analogy, Su Jie remained silent for a long time.

He stood in the center of the Hall of Punishments, surrounded by figures being suppressed by the light of talismans. The sounds of impact outside the hall continued, but at this moment, those sounds seemed to be separated from his ears by a layer of water.

His gaze drifted slightly, as if he were looking into a more distant place through the dome of the Hall of Punishments.

"The Chaos Mother Sea... the Primordial Chaos Island..." He repeated these two words before accepting the fact.
