Then, Han Yi swept towards the entrance, paying no more attention to other graves along the way, and headed straight for the entrance where he followed Li Qiankun three years ago.

Three days later, when he arrived at the location of the entrance, he saw Li Qiankun already waiting for him. Upon seeing Han Yi’s arrival, Li Qiankun quickly turned around and dove into the crack.

The crack, now only half a meter wide from its original three meters three years ago, was just wide enough for one person to pass through.

Following Li Qiankun through the crack and back into the boundless space, Han Yi also felt a sigh of relief inside.

Then, he saw Li Qiankun control the bronze-colored gate, transforming it back into nine giant pillars, which then shrank and were put away by him.

The Nine Heart Exquisite Chaotic Dao Formation, this array, also made Han Yi take serious notice.

After the array was put away, the crack that had been propped open for three years closed in an instant and disappeared from sight. The Tao stele underneath the crack stood still in the boundless space, showing no change whatsoever.

Then, Li Qiankun slowly exhaled and turned to look at Han Yi, asking, “Han, did you gain any rewards this time?”

Han Yi nodded, “There are gains, and quite significant ones.”

At those words, a glint flashed in Li Qiankun’s eyes. He knew that the legacies here are often from beings like the Extreme Ancient Great World Lord of Half-Step Transcend Level. Normally, it would be impossible to obtain these legacies with just a Tao Realm cultivation.

Of course, if one could use these legacies as challenges to improve one’s skills, such as array or combat techniques, that was feasible.

With that realization, Li Qiankun also refrained from asking further.

Han Yi didn’t inquire whether Li Qiankun had received the Extreme Ancient Great World Lord’s legacy either, but seeing his condition, it seemed likely he had. Of course, three years was too short, and even if he had received it, it would have been impossible to fully digest it, so the enhancement to his realm and combat power would have been almost negligible.

“Having gains is excellent.”

“Let’s go, we shall return.”

Li Qiankun took the lead and darted away into the distance, with Han Yi following. He was not too familiar with the place, and Li Qiankun seemed to know it much better. It was more appropriate for him to lead the way, and there was no worry of taking a wrong turn.

Moments later.

They approached the Fu Heng Daoist Area, then crossed the boundary, returning to the normal Chaos.

Back in the Chaos Space, filled with the boundless, omnipresent Chaotic Power, Han Yi felt a sense of comfort as if a fish had returned to water, thriving in its suitable environment.

The place they reached, still within the northern northeast area of the Fu Heng Northern Boundary.

Then.

The two traveled from north to south toward the location of the Ancient Great World in the eastern direction of the Fu Heng Eastern Realm.

But just half a day later, they stopped, their expressions solemn as they looked ahead.

In front of them, a world floating within the Chaos was being devoured by a vast and grave Tomb Explosion.

“This is one of the disastrous Chaos mutations caused by the Tao Tomb Ripple, the Tomb Explosion,” said Han Yi in a low voice.

This Great World before them did not compare to the Ancient Great World or the Origin Wisdom World, and it was much smaller than the Xuzhan Great World that Han Yi had once visited, equivalent to a third of that world.

But a Great World is still a Great World, its essence already surpassing ordinary worlds. Yet, even such a powerful world started to fall into ruin as the Tomb Explosion spread.

Li Qiankun nodded, equally serious in expression.

“This is my first time witnessing a Tomb Explosion in person. Previously, I’ve only seen it through jade stone recordings and images.”

“Facing the Tomb Explosion directly, I now realize how terrifying this phenomenon is.”

“If in the future a Tomb Explosion descends upon the Ancient Great World, with a force hundreds of times greater than this one, then the Ancient Great World might also be affected. Even with a Heavenly Sovereign intervening, it might be hard to resist.”

Li Qiankun suddenly became worried.

Han Yi nodded, “Following my deductions, the Ancient Great World will certainly be affected, unless a new Great World Master emerges.”

He looked at Li Qiankun.

“Perhaps, Qian Kun, you can manage to fully digest the World Master’s legacy before the complete outbreak of the Tao Tomb and advance to become a Great World Master. By then, with your power, you might be able to save the Ancient from the brink of death.”

“`

Han Yi’s words were certainly not a joke but serious. After receiving the Extreme Ancient Great World Lord’s inheritance, it was only a matter of time before Li Qiankun would step into the rank of Heavenly Sovereign.

Moreover, once he became a Heavenly Sovereign, his ascension would surely be swift. Given that he was also the master of the ferocious Heaven Devourer, it was possible that within thirty thousand years, he could break through to Half-Step Transcendence and become a true Extreme Ancient Great World Lord.

Li Qiankun, sensing the seriousness in Han Yi’s tone, nodded solemnly, “I hope so.”

At that moment,

in the world ahead that was gradually being devoured by the Tomb Explosion, a Heavenly Sovereign rushed out. This middle-aged-looking Heavenly Sovereign did not glance towards the distant Han Yi and Li Qiankun, who were watching. Instead, he summoned an Ancient Artifact with a roar and charged into the very core of the Tomb Explosion, attempting to suppress or destroy it with the artifact.

Han Yi watched intently. He also wanted to see whether a Heavenly Sovereign could deal with the Tomb Explosion, which was, at this stage, still in its initial phase.

But just then, his complexion drastically changed, his eyes filled with shock.

Because,

at the edge of the world that was falling apart in the distance, as the Heavenly Sovereign who rushed into the core of the Tomb Explosion wielded his Ancient Artifact, he suddenly saw a giant beast appear in the midst of the Tomb Explosion. With a gaping maw, the beast bit down and swallowed both the Heavenly Sovereign and his artifact whole.

With the beast’s bite, even a corner of the collapsing world’s space was viciously torn away.

Boom!!

Inside the beast, terrifying collision sounds, like thunder, boomed, and the horrifying sounds of the Tao echoed far away.

But these collision sounds lasted only three breaths before they faded into silence.

Han Yi, with a change in expression, immediately said in a low voice, “It’s a Tomb Beast, let’s go.”

Without another glance, he swiftly fled in the direction away from the world and the Tomb, with Li Qiankun quickly following.

At that moment, Han Yi’s speed soared to its limit. He was truly stepping into the realm of the Heavenly Sovereign, and Li Qiankun, with a burst of light on his body, managed to keep pace with Han Yi.

They continued their escape for a full hour. Only when the destroyed Great World and the beast within the Tomb Explosion were no longer in sight did Han Yi slow down.

“A Tomb Beast?”, “Wasn’t that supposed to appear only during the second stage of the Tao Tomb Ripple?”

“And isn’t the beginning of that second stage supposed to start in ninety thousand years, while a Tomb Beast that can swallow a Heavenly Sovereign in one bite is at least in its juvenile phase and wouldn’t appear until ten thousand years after the second stage?”

Li Qiankun’s face fluctuated with these three doubts.

As the Dao God Sect of the Central Dao Region had summoned Heavenly Sovereigns to devise methods to counteract the Tao Tomb and had widely disseminated information on the Tao Tomb Ripples, including the three stages of ripples, as well as the changes and time nodes that would occur at each stage.

Although Li Qiankun had his own channels of information, being well-informed about both the Ancient World and the Chaos Realm, he had spent the last thousand years digesting the inheritance of the Great World Master after his promotion to the Outer Path and had not given much attention to the events within the Chaos.

And since they had last left the Ancient World and traveled north towards the space between Tao Domain fractures, nothing had caught their significant attention.

“As you’ve seen, that is indeed a Tomb Beast.”

“Thousands of years ago, I went to the Heavenly Destiny Dao Domain and came across a Tomb Explosion in a Chaos Space. There, at the core of the Tao Tomb, I saw a giant beast swimming within. That beast was, without a doubt, a Tomb Beast.”

“The beast we saw entering the explosion was much larger than the one I had seen before; it must be a Tomb Beast that has entered its juvenile phase.”

“Moreover, I’ve heard that in recent years, the changes in the Chaos Tao Tombs have been drastic. Perhaps the initial three stages of a Tao Tomb Explosion no longer apply to the current situation.”

“Maybe some changes that we are not aware of are happening in the dark.”

Han Yi spoke in a somber tone.

Ever since he had seen that Tomb Beast in the Heavenly Destiny Dao Domain, he had felt an urgent sense inside him. This urge had made him desperate to enhance his own power.

It seemed now that his sense of urgency was gradually coming true.

In the Taoist Spirit Chaos World, the deterioration of the Tao Tomb was intensifying.
