I gain ten years' worth of cultivation every day, and even geniuses will only see my doorstep!

The Sea of ​​Chaos.

The moment Qin Yuan stepped into the Sea of ​​Chaos, an unprecedented pressure washed over him. That pressure was more than ten thousand times stronger than the Sea of ​​Nothingness, and a million times stronger than the Myriad Realms Heavenly Domain. His Heavenly Dao God Emperor body actually felt a slight discomfort.

A system notification sounded: [Host detected entering the Chaos Sea. Environment changed; daily cultivation gains recalculated. Chaos Sea base bonus: 1 million times. Current daily cultivation gains: 1 trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion year/day × 1 million = 1 trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion year/day. Host detected entering the Chaos Sea for the first time; achievement achieved, reward: +1 trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion energy points. Current energy points: Uncountable.]

Qin Yuan's lips curled into a slight smile. One hundred trillion ...

"Brother Qin Yuan, look over there." Lin Qing'er pointed into the distance.

In the distance, a colossal city could be vaguely seen. Floating in the chaotic sea, the city was entirely forged from chaotic-colored divine crystals, radiating a faint golden light. The city walls were covered with intricate runes, each exuding an aura surpassing even that of a Heavenly Emperor.

Qin Yuan carried Lin Qing'er as they flew towards the city. After several days of flight, they landed before the city gate. The city gate was hundreds of millions of feet high, and two squads of armored soldiers stood at the entrance, each of them a Heavenly Dao God Emperor level being. The leading soldier was even a Chaos God Emperor at the first level.

Qin Yuan stepped forward. "Fellow Daoist, we come from the Myriad Realms Heavenly Domain and this is our first time in the Chaos Sea. May I ask what the rules are for entering the city?"

The armored soldier glanced at him, his gaze sweeping over him. "First level of Heavenly Dao God Emperor? From a small place like the Myriad Realms Heavenly Domain?" His tone was contemptuous.

Qin Yuan nodded.

The armored soldier scoffed. "Entry fee: one hundred million Chaos God Crystals. Can you afford that?"

Chaos Divine Crystals are the universal currency of the Chaos Sea, ten thousand times more precious than the Heavenly Dao Divine Crystals of the Myriad Realms Heavenly Domain. Qin Yuan didn't have a single one. But he wasn't flustered; he took out a token from his robes—the token of the Lord of the Myriad Realms Heavenly Domain.

The armored soldier's expression changed slightly upon seeing the token. "The Lord of the Myriad Realms Heavenly Domain? You're Qin Yuan, the one who killed the Void Sovereign?"

Qin Yuan nodded.

The soldier's attitude changed immediately. "So it's Lord Qin, my apologies for not recognizing you. The entrance fee is waived, please come in."

Qin Yuan put away the token and led Lin Qing'er into the city.

Chaos City is one of the largest cities in the Chaos Sea, controlled by the Chaos Temple. Countless cultivators reside within its walls, the weakest being a Heavenly Dao God Emperor, and Chaos God Emperors are a common sight. Qin Yuan found an inn to stay in and began to learn about the basic situation of the Chaos Sea.

The Chaos Sea is divided into nine sea regions. The first sea region is the weakest, and the ninth sea region is the strongest. They are currently located in Chaos City, the main city of the first sea region. The ruler of the first sea region is an elder of the Chaos Temple, a fifth-level Chaos God Emperor. The Temple Master of the Chaos Temple is said to be a peak ninth-level Chaos God Emperor, just one step away from breaking through to the Origin God Emperor realm.

Qin Yuan frowned slightly. He was at the peak of the ninth level of the Chaos God Emperor realm. He was currently only at the first level of the Heavenly Dao God Emperor realm, and there was still a long way to go before reaching that level. But he wasn't in a hurry. He had a system, and unlimited time.

After settling into the inn, Qin Yuan began his seclusion. He wanted to break through to the Chaos God Emperor realm as soon as possible.

Ten years later, the Heavenly Dao God Emperor reaches the ninth level. One hundred years later, the Chaos God Emperor reaches the first level. Five hundred years later, the Chaos God Emperor reaches the third level. One thousand years later, the Chaos God Emperor reaches the fifth level. Five thousand years later, the Chaos God Emperor reaches the seventh level. Ten thousand years later—the peak of the ninth level of the Chaos God Emperor.

On this day, Qin Yuan opened his eyes, a glint of chaotic light flashing within them. He had reached the peak of the ninth level of the Chaos God Emperor realm. He was only one step away from becoming the Origin God Emperor.

A system notification sounded: [Host's cultivation has broken through to the peak of the ninth level of the Chaos God Emperor realm. Daily cultivation gains have increased to 1 trillion ...

Qin Yuan stood up. Ten thousand years of seclusion had made him miss out on a lot. But it didn't matter, because he knew that the real challenge had only just begun.

"Brother Qin Yuan, you've come out of seclusion?" Lin Qing'er pushed open the door and entered, holding a cup of tea in her hand.

Qin Yuan took the teacup and took a sip. "Hmm. How's the situation outside?"

Lin Qing'er's expression was grave. "It's not good. A new force has recently emerged in the Chaos Sea, called the 'Devouring God Cult.' They worship the legendary 'Lord of Devouring,' who is said to be even stronger than the Lord of the Chaos Temple. They are plundering everywhere and have already conquered the third sea area."

Qin Yuan frowned slightly. "The Lord of Devouring?"

Lin Qing'er nodded. "It's said they escaped from the Origin Land, and their strength is unfathomable. The Chaos Temple has already sent three elders to hunt them down, but none of them have returned."

Qin Yuan was silent for a moment. "I'll go take a look."

Lin Qing'er grabbed his hand. "It's too dangerous. You just came out of seclusion..."

Qin Yuan looked at her. "It's precisely because it's dangerous that I have to go. The Chaos Sea is our new home, and I can't watch it be destroyed."

Lin Qing'er knew she couldn't stop him, so she could only nod. "I'll go with you."

The two left the inn and flew towards the third sea area.

The third sea area has been completely occupied by the Devouring God Cult. The once clear Chaos Sea has turned pitch black. Countless shattered palaces and corpses float on the surface. The air is filled with a strong stench of blood.

Qin Yuan landed on the sea surface, scanning his surroundings with his divine sense. Suddenly, several black figures rushed out of the sea and surrounded him. They were members of the Devouring God Cult, each of them at least at the fifth level of the Chaos God Emperor realm. The leader was even at the eighth level of the Chaos God Emperor realm.

"Another one sent to his death." The leader sneered. "Ninth level Chaos God Emperor? Interesting. However, before our Devouring God Cult, he's nothing."

Qin Yuan remained silent. He simply raised his hand and unleashed a palm strike! The Chaos Great Handprint! This was a new divine power he had created in the Chaos Sea, a fusion of the Guardian Dao and the power of chaos. The grey-gold palm print, carrying the power to devour everything, slammed towards those people!

Boom—! The leader was smashed to pieces with a single palm strike, and the others were also sent flying! Instant kill in one blow!

Qin Yuan withdrew his hand and continued flying deeper into the sea.

After flying for several days, a massive black palace appeared ahead. The palace was entirely forged from Devouring God Crystals, emanating a nauseating stench. Before the palace stood a figure. It was a young man in black, handsome, but with eyes as cold as frost. He was a peak ninth-level Chaos God Emperor.

"So you're the one who killed my men?" The young man in black looked at him, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

Qin Yuan asked calmly, "Who are you?"

The young man in black sneered. "I am the young master of the Devouring God Cult, Devouring Heaven. Peak of the ninth level of the Chaos God Emperor, a half-step Origin God Emperor. You killed my men, and I will make you pay with your life."
