Chapter 1570 - Chapter 1570 Chapter 671 Chaos Ruins Destiny Tao Palace_2

Chapter 1570: Chapter 671: Chaos Ruins, Destiny Tao Palace_2 Chapter 1570: Chapter 671: Chaos Ruins, Destiny Tao Palace_2 Exploring Chaos Ruins can sometimes yield immense Chaotic opportunities, and other times, only bring disaster, leading to death and the annihilation of one’s path.

However, among the many beings within Chaos, especially the most numerous Chaotic Evil Gods, their favorite activity is to explore the Chaos Ruins. Once they gain something, their strength can soar immensely.

“Does Han have an interest?”

Seeing Han Yi’s keen interest, Houtu Taoist Ancestor’s gaze shifted, and she continued:

“This Chaos Ruin is a large one. I have explored it for thirty years, yet I have only stayed around its periphery. This ruin is located in the western part of the Fuheng Taoist Area. From here, it would take about five years to reach without passing through a Chaos Wormhole.”

“How about it, Han? Would you join me in exploring that ruin together?”

After Houtu Taoist Ancestor finished speaking, she stared intensely at Han Yi.

In the previous battle where he had repelled two Tao of Deception cultivators, Han Yi’s performance had deeply shocked her. His vast Divine Force seemed to surge endlessly, making her heart tremble with fear.

In over two thousand years of wandering through Chaos, Houtu Taoist Ancestor had encountered members of the Chaos Divine Race, including a few from the Infinite Realm, but Han Yi’s performance gave her the impression that he was much stronger than the other members of the Chaos Divine Race.

If she could invite Han Yi to explore together, she would no longer worry about being pursued by those two Tao of Deception cultivators and could even delve deeper into that mysterious and vast Chaos Ruin, possibly obtaining even more powerful treasures.

Across from Houtu Taoist Ancestor, Han Yi showed a contemplative expression.

A Chaos Ruin that even Houtu Taoist Ancestor had explored for thirty years and stayed only at the outskirts must not be simple; Han Yi was also intrigued.

After thinking it over, he decided to go and investigate. According to Houtu Taoist Ancestor, it would take a round trip of ten years, or at worst, a dozen years. He could afford that time.

At this moment, seeing Han Yi’s indecisiveness, Houtu Taoist Ancestor added: “Another reason I was being pursued is that I discovered a Cave Heaven near the central region on the outskirts of the ruin.”

“Inside that Cave Heaven, it is very likely that Origin Crystals exist. It is precisely because I discovered this that the Tao of Deception cultivators nearby have been relentlessly pursuing to kill me, to prevent the information from leaking.”

Hearing this, Han Yi’s eyes suddenly lit up.

“Origin Crystal?”

Han Yi was not unfamiliar with Origin Crystals; the so-called Origin Crystals are essentially Origin Stones.

Back in the Netherworld, the Nether Attribute spherical Crystal Stone he had acquired was one such Origin Crystal, which had provided him with over seventy thousand Life Seeds.

If there were Origin Crystals, even if there were dangers, Han Yi would still take the risk.

Noticing the change in Han Yi’s eyes, Houtu Taoist Ancestor continued: “That’s right, Origin Crystals.”

“Origin Crystals are of great significance to Taoist Ancestors; they can be used to assist in cultivating Tao Skills and also play a powerful role in nurturing Tao Fruits and integrating them with the Tao Realm.”

“Besides, even for Heavenly Sovereigns, Origin Crystals are of extraordinary importance.”

Upon hearing this, Han Yi finally nodded:

“Alright, then I will trouble Houtu to lead the way and show me the Chaos Ruins.”

At his words, a look of joy crossed Houtu’s face.

With a strong ally joining her, she felt much more at ease.

Next, Houtu Taoist Ancestor took out a Taoist Boat and invited Han Yi to join her inside. They boarded the Taoist Boat and set off towards the Chaos Ruins.

Though Han Yi might be an Immortal Path or an Immortal Venerate and he had no Tao Artifacts on him, and his Divine Clan cultivation had broken through to the Infinite Realm, he had no flight artifacts of the Infinite-level. Even though his Divine Clan cultivation made him faster than the Taoist Boat, it was still best to save some effort.

Inside the Taoist Boat.

Houtu Taoist Ancestor began to introduce in detail the Chaos Ruins they were going to explore, and Han Yi listened with great interest.

Chaos Ruins can be divided into large, medium, and small. The small Chaos Ruins are usually the remnants of a collapsed and condensed ordinary Great World, while the medium Chaos Ruins are the remnants of a more powerful Great World that has collapsed or collided with certain forces. Only the large Chaos Ruins involve another level, which is the Chaotic Unique Scenery.

What is known as Chaotic Unique Scenery are special regions caused by the innate changes in Chaos.

Strictly speaking, Tomb Explosion is also a type of Chaotic Unique Scenery.

These special regions may nurture Chaos-level Unique Objects and Strange Treasures, or they could be deadly lands capable of devouring everything.

“It’s a pity that the presence of that Chaos Wormhole was only momentary; otherwise, passing through the Chaos Wormhole could save us a few years.”

Houtu Taoist Ancestor lamented.

Han Yi knew what Houtu meant by Chaos Wormholes. In the Ancient Great World, for example, there were Spatial Rifts, and in Chaos, although there were no Spatial Rifts, a kind of temporary corridor that could briefly connect two places would be born. These special temporary passages were called Chaos Wormholes.

The formation of Chaos Wormholes had two possibilities, one was the random shaping through the variations of Chaotic Power, and the other was built by the Power of Heavenly Venerate, creating a Chaos Wormhole.

This was also the reason Heavenly Sovereigns could cross vast distances in a short time within Chaos.

“By the way, Houtu, what is the name of the Chaotic Force you joined?” Han Yi suddenly thought of this and asked.

Up to now, he had heard about the Great Chaotic Forces within Chaos, and he had direct or indirect connections with powers such as the Dao God Sect, Ancestral God Star, Demon Witch Mountain, Purple Mountain, and so on.

These Great Forces were all presided over by powerhouses at the Half-Step Transcendence level, unparalleled by ordinary forces.

“The force I joined is called the Destiny Tao Palace, and this Tao Palace is not in the Fuheng Taoist Area, but rather in the Heavenly Destiny Tao Area.”

Upon hearing this, Han Yi was shocked. He had initially thought that Houtu Taoist Ancestor might have joined just an ordinary Heavenly Reverence-level force, but to his surprise, she had actually joined the Destiny Tao Palace.

This Tao Palace was no simple matter, it was one of the two strongest Great Forces in the Heavenly Destiny Tao Area, the other being the Imperial Heavenly Tao Palace.

“I didn’t expect that you had joined the Destiny Tao Palace, which is indeed a great opportunity.” Han Yi nodded and said.

Unexpectedly, Houtu Taoist Ancestor smiled slightly, shaking her head as if amused.

“The situation might be different from what Han thought.”

“Although I joined the Destiny Tao Palace, and even met with the master of the Tao Palace, the mysterious master of the Tao Palace suggested that I should not stay in the palace, but instead travel through Chaos.”

“She said that there was an opportunity for me in the midst of Chaos.”

“And, she also told me not to return to the Destiny Tao Palace before achieving the Realm of Heavenly Sovereign.”

“So, although I joined the Destiny Tao Palace, in reality, my connection with this palace is not deep.”

At this point, Houtu Taoist Ancestor seemed somewhat helpless. Initially, she had been extremely pleased, for being able to join a Great Chaotic Force with a Half-Step Transcendent presiding over it was not something average Immortal Venerates could achieve.

Moreover, after she joined, she was even summoned by the supremely mysterious master of the Destiny Tao Palace, which was infinitely honorable.

But then, the master of the palace had asked her to venture through Chaos and travel through Tao Domains, and not to return to the palace before achieving the status of Heavenly Sovereign.

This made it quite difficult for her to comprehend.

In this way, her joining the palace was rendered meaningless.

And at that time, she was merely an Immortal Venerate, far from being a Heavenly Sovereign, not even counting as a Taoist Ancestor. It was possible that she could fall among the Six Chaotic Paths during her travels through Chaos.

But after understanding the mechanism of the Destiny Tao Palace, she had no choice but to accept fate.

This Tao Palace followed the principle of adhering to the guidance of fate, and going along with the torrent of destiny, was shrouded in mystery, and some actions seemed nonsensical to Houtu Taoist Ancestor.

She then left the Destiny Tao Palace in accordance with destiny and traveled through Chaos.

And it was not long after that, she actually found an opportunity during her travels and was promoted to Taoist Ancestor.

This made her heart waver between doubt and belief.

To this day, she could not clearly say whether the Destiny Tao Palace truly had glimpsed her fate.

“So it seems, Houtu might have the chance to achieve the Realm of Heavenly Sovereign in the future.”

“Han offers his congratulations in advance.”

Han Yi said with a smile.

Houtu knew that Han Yi was trying to comfort her and replied with a smile, “If I ascend to Heavenly Sovereign one day, with Taoist Han’s talent, wouldn’t you have already set foot in Half-Step Transcendence, or perhaps, even the prospect of Transcendence is within reach.”

After this exchange, the trust between the two deepened further, and their relationship became much more harmonious.

This was a version of fellow countrymen meeting in a foreign land within Chaos.
