Chapter 1031: 750 pressing_2

Chaos Sha Qi, dreaded by others, but not by Jiang Chen. Previously, when he practiced the Tao of Pangu, he feared no Sha Qi and could even manipulate a stronger one, the Demonic Power of Destruction.

Now, having transcended the limitations of the Tao of Pangu to practice the Way of Reincarnation, he saw Sha Qi as a supplement, capable of devouring any force to strengthen himself, no matter how formidable the Sha Qi was.

Moreover, Jiang Chen was a grandmaster of array patterns, with his greatest skill being transformation. If he could transform Innate Divine Demons into Innate Spiritual Treasures, surely he could transform the Sha Qi-laden Heavenly Earthly Origin into the purest form of Heavenly Earthly Origin.

Was it not just a matter of refining the Chaos Sha Qi from the body of the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon? This posed no difficulty for Jiang Chen!

In front of the body of the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon, Jiang Chen stood for three days. On this day, he suddenly raised his hand and pointed towards the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon.

Instantly, the void trembled, and mysterious runes emerged, branding onto the body of the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon, arranging and combining into array patterns, forming mysterious arrays.

At the same time, the void suddenly cracked open with countless tiny fissures, from which golden willpower flowed out, gradually forming a river that submerged the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon.

"Primordial Chaos Array, arise!"

At Jiang Chen’s command, the golden willpower worked in conjunction with the arrays, forming a stronger, more complex array—the Primordial Chaos Array!

This was an array created by Jiang Chen himself, possessing no offensive power, serving only one function, which was to transform all elemental energy into Chaos Qi for the concoction of Chaos Origin Pills.

Jiang Chen set up the Primordial Chaos Array on the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon not to transform it into Chaos Origin Pills but to use it as the main focus of the array, enhancing the power of the array.

The Nine-horned Desolate Dragon was a top-tier Great Divine Transcendent, not only capable of creating Chaos Qi from nothing but also capable of directly absorbing Chaos Qi.

Jiang Chen took advantage of the fact that the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon could directly absorb Chaos Qi. Considering what the Primordial Chaos Array could do in a day, how much Chaos Qi could it absorb? How many Chaos Origin Pills could it transform?

However, the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon was different, being a Great Divine Transcendent who could inhale and exhale astonishing amounts of Chaos Qi daily. Under the transformation of the Primordial Chaos Array, it could be turned into several, or even dozens of Chaos Origin Pills.

Jiang Chen intended to turn the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon into a machine, tirelessly breathing Chaos Qi for him to concoct Chaos Origin Pills.

Chaos Origin Pills—these were the true hard currency of the Prehistoric World, and with sufficient quantities, they could even directly bring forth an Innate Dao Sovereign or even a Quasi-Saint.

It’s no exaggeration to say that, given the amount of Chaos Qi the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon could breathe, it would take only ten thousand years to create an Innate Dao Sovereign for the Human Race. One million years could produce a Quasi-Saint.

This was the greatest use of the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon; to directly kill it and return its Heavenly Earthly Origin to the Nine States would be a waste. Cultivation should aim for sustainable development, with an eye on the future.

Moreover, its own physical state did not affect the amount of Chaos Qi it could exhale; in fact, appropriate injuries could even stimulate its potential, increasing the efficiency of its Chaos Qi emissions.

Thus, Jiang Chen made another move. Pointing at the void, the Heavenly Earthly Grinding Wheel that had been previously shattered by the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon reappeared, lying atop the dragon and gradually grinding away at its original source.

However, the newly reappeared Heavenly Earthly Grinding Wheel was no longer as powerful as before. Although it could grind away the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon’s original source, it always maintained a certain degree, ensuring not to harm its foundation.

Even so, with the self-healing ability of the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon, it could offset the original source ground away by the Heavenly Earthly Grinding Wheel. For every bit of its original source ground away, it would immediately recover. In this way, the cycle could be endless!

Boom boom!

Within the void, the aspiration of all beings swept through, faintly forming twelve giants, similarly creating an array, starting to inhale and exhale the surrounding Sha Qi, separating it from the Heavenly Earthly Origin.

This was a weakened version of the Dutian Twelve Great Arrays. Because it was formed of willpower, its power was somewhat reduced, lacking in destructive force but possessing the ability to gather Sha Qi. This was an inspiration Jiang Chen got from Qin Shi Huang, specifically meant to handle Sha Qi.

With this, once the Sha Qi embedded within the Heavenly Earthly Origin was stripped away, the remaining power could be absorbed by the Nine States, strengthening it.

"Perfect!"

Looking at his achievements, Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction. This trip, one could say he maximized the value of the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon without any waste.

As long as the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon remained in the Nine States, day and night exhaling the Chaos Qi and emitting the Original Source, the Nine States would never fall into decline.

A top Great Divine Transcendent, unrelenting in expending his practice to breathe Chaos Qi for the Nine States, the power he gathered would be enough to sustain many cultivators. In such a scenario, how could the Nine States fall? As long as the will of the people is not corrupted, the Nine States will only grow stronger!

"With the operation of the Primordial Chaos Array, sooner or later, the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon will be assimilated by the array and become a top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure. By then, it will truly have no chance of turning over."

"Moreover, since the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon is the original Fierce Beast, its body must contain the essence blood of the Chaos Demigod. I must find an opportunity to extract the Demigod essence blood from its body in the future—this is an extremely rare treasure."

"And that Chaos Sha Qi cannot be wasted either; it is a great supplement for the Twelve Golden Men."

Everything about the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon is a treasure, even the Chaos Sha Qi, which can enhance the power of the Twelve Golden Men. Most of all, the root of its being, the drop of Chaos Demigod’s blood that gave rise to it, is an exceptionally rare treasure in the world.

The original Innate Saints, like the Taoist Ancestors, Demon Ancestor, and Ancestral Dragon—why were they able to rise quickly? It’s because, in the earliest era, they had refined the essence blood of the primal Fierce Beasts.

The Great Dao contained within that essence blood enabled them to see the path ahead, thus allowing them to surpass the realm of the Innate Dao Sovereign and enter a new level.

In this era, breaking through from the Innate Dao Sovereign to Quasi-Saint is not a rare occurrence, as there is already a mature system in place.

But in the era of the Taoist Ancestors, the Innate Dao Sovereign was the end of the Great Dao—there was no path ahead. It was the Taoist Ancestors who broke the limits and forged a new path, which then led to the later Quasi-Saint and Primordial Realm.

In any era, the pioneers have the hardest job, as they start from nothing.

"The essence blood of Chaos contains the secret to achieving the Primordial Realm. It can be offered to Emperor Fuxi; perhaps it could aid him."

Although the essence blood of the Chaos Demigod is precious, for Jiang Chen, who already possessed the arm of the Demonic Power of Destruction, it wasn’t so extraordinary. Thus, he planned to refine the Chaos Demigod essence blood from the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon and then offer it to Emperor Fuxi.

For other Great Divine Transcendents, a drop of Chaos Demigod’s essence blood might not be enough to enable their breakthrough, but for Fuxi, it was different.

His strength was too formidable, and his foundation too profound; even the Nine-horned Desolate Dragon, in terms of realm, was not his equal.

Even during the era of witches and monsters, Fuxi was already a top-tier Great Divine Transcendent. If only given more time, he could have stepped into the Primordial Realm like Di Jun Taiyi. However, he fell before his breakthrough.

Afterwards, Fuxi reincarnated into the Human Race, starting his practice from scratch, overcoming calamities, and once again reaching the realm of the top Great Divine Transcendents, only a hair’s breadth away from achieving Tao.

Two lifetimes’ accumulation!

Two lifetimes as the supreme of Heaven and Earth!

Fuxi’s foundation could honestly be described as unfathomably deep. Without external forces, relying only on his own strength, Fuxi’s might was said to be the strongest among all beneath the Saints in the Prehistoric World. Among all the powerful beings of the Prehistoric World, even the reserved Haotian was not his equal in strength.

If not for the sudden calamity that befell the Human Race, Emperor Fuxi would have long since broken through to the Primordial Realm.

Why was it the Five Elements Emperor instead of letting Fuxi temporarily assume the role of the Emperor? It was because some feared that if Fuxi remained as Emperor for too long, he would have directly made the breakthrough. To prevent his breakthrough, the concept of the rotational cycle of the Five Elements was conceived.

Such an existence was truly only a step away from achieving Tao, and any help could enable his breakthrough. The essence blood of the Chaos Demigod was not the key to Emperor Fuxi’s achieving Tao, but rather an opportunity for him to advance further.
