Chapter 2034: 842, Primordial Overlord, Ancient Defiant Dragon_2
Nine Mysteries City.

Within the grand hall, Han Muye suddenly opened his eyes as he sat upright.

He raised his hand, and a chaotic space appeared before him, filled with numerous fragmented continents and stars.

In that chaotic void, a speck of light was flickering and moving forward.

“The Boundless Chaotic Domain?”

Han Muye whispered softly to himself.

That speck of light was the mark Han Muye had left on a Beyond First-Rate Heavenly Demon Beast before.

Through this mark, he discovered that the Beyond First-Rate Heavenly Demon Beast was making its way into the Boundless Chaotic Domain.

“A Beyond First-Rate Heavenly Demon Beast already possesses immense intelligence. What is it seeking in the Boundless Chaotic Domain?” Han Muye muttered, a profound spiritual light shining in his eyes.

Initially, he had no plans to venture into the Boundless Chaotic Domain.

Nor had the Nine Mystic Sword Sect made arrangements to do so.

It was merely a few dozen second-grade heavenly demon beasts that were there.

But now, he truly wanted to go and see for himself.

If not dealt with properly, a Beyond First-Rate Heavenly Demon Beast could devour and slay countless cultivators.

Together with those second-grade heavenly demon beasts, it was possible that all hunting teams would be annihilated.

The fallout from such an outcome would ultimately be blamed on Han Muye and Nine Mysteries City.

Although Han Muye did not care much about the grudges from all sides in the Ten Thousand Domains, he was more concerned about what the Heavenly Demon Beast was planning.

Could it be that the Heavenly Demon Beast had some unknown scheme?

“Huang Zhihu, Huang Six, see who else in the city is willing to go to the Boundless Chaotic Domain with us,”

Han Muye’s voice rang out from inside the grand hall.

In less than half a day, a flying vessel burst out of Nine Mysteries City.

The speed of the flying vessel was extremely fast, constantly passing through illusory spaces.

This was potent spatial power that directly tore through the void, shuttling through heaven and earth.

Without sufficient cultivation abilities, one’s physical body would directly collapse on such a flying vessel.

Of course, this flying vessel was specially refined to resist the crushing forces of the void.

Above the deck, a layer of light shielded the space ahead.

Han Muye, Old Master Qin Suyang, and Huang Six sat around in a circle.

Huang Zhihu stood to the side, staring blankly at the world flashing with Flowing Light before him.

“Alas, without knowing it, so many years have passed—the path of cultivation grows ever longer, yet it seems there is no end to this world,” Han Muye said softly as he looked forward.

Huang Six turned to Huang Zhihu and grinned, “Look, whether it was in Heavenly Cycle Divine World or in Desolate Heaven Territory, I had Sister Ping with me, and I could often see Huang Zhihu.”

“Isn’t the point of cultivation to seek longevity and never part in life or death?”

Huang Six’s words made Huang Zhihu lower her head and look towards him.

When Huang Six left the Profound Heaven World alone, was it not a parting of life and death?

Now, having seen through it all and reaching a level of cultivation that is hard to find in the world, he truly could say such words.

His words left Han Muye in slight silence.

If possible, Han Muye too wished to stay in Profound Heaven, to remain in the mortal world.

But along the way, whether it has been beyond his control or a pursuit of his own, he has gone too far and can no longer stay.

Now he stands at the peak of the cultivation universe, but feels more alone than ever.

“Isn’t that easy?” Old Master Qin Suyang said with a smile, “When this Contend of Ten Thousand Realms is over, we’ll return to Profound Heaven and continue living as mortals.”

“Brother Huang has established the Divine Court and set up the celestial world—he resides in Longevity and Sustenance. Isn’t that carefree?”

Everyone smiled, but they all knew that some things could never be reversed.

Now they seemed to be at ease, but advancing further in their cultivation was extremely difficult.

Let alone that any opportunity they sought now came with unimaginable risks.

A single misstep could lead to a total collapse.

To truly be safe, perhaps one would need to step into the Heavenly Cycle Divine World or enter the Heavenly Cycle Battlefield, wouldn’t they?

Han Muye did not speak.

The Quantum Tribulation had already started, and no one could avoid it.

He wondered how many among these old friends gathered here, or within the entire cultivation world, would be able to survive the Quantum Tribulation.

He was now amassing power and constantly enhancing the strength of the Nine Mystic Sword Sect disciples to give them a chance to resist the day the Quantum Tribulation struck.

Could he really be like those powerful beings hiding in the Heavenly Cycle Battlefield, closing his eyes to the outside world?

Han Muye could not do that.

“Step-father, that’s the Boundless Chaotic Domain,” Huang Zhihu said, pointing ahead.

Everyone looked up to see streaks of Flowing Light flashing, seemingly with endless illusory turbulence.

All sorts of Flowing Light, each one signifying a star’s collapse.

Like a shower of Meteorites, they moved continuously.

In such a space, a moment’s inattention could result in a collision with a star or a Meteorite.

Moreover, this illusory chaotic domain was filled with boundless Illusory Power.

Even Immortal Lords and Immortal Venerables might get lost in such a place.

“This aura…” Han Muye turned his head, a trace of solemnity showing on the face of the person clad in black armor beside him.

“If my senses are correct, this chaotic region contains the Origin Rule Power capable of reversing space.”

“In ancient times, the place where the Phantom Spirit Hibernating Dragon was nurtured had such rules.”

The Phantom Spirit Hibernating Dragon, also known as the Reversal Beast or Defiant Dragon during ancient times.

It didn’t abide by the rules among divine beasts and incited strife among them.

The Defiant Dragon has always been a rebel in the Primordial Universe.

Among the Ancient Primordial Overlords, there was one who was a Defiant Dragon.”

“Later, when the Galaxy Universe breached the Primordial, the Defiant Dragon clan quietly left.”

The person clad in chaos armor murmured softly, spiritual light flickering in their eyes.

“In fact, the various clans in the ancient chaos were in discord due to the Defiant Dragon’s instigation; otherwise, they wouldn’t have really failed to block the battle puppets of the Galaxy Universe.”

The strength of the Galaxy Universe lay in its battle puppets and formidable weapon refinement methods.

But the Primordial Universe was also a universe that spanned several others, home to powerful and vast tribes of divine beasts.

If there was unity within the Primordial, resisting the Galaxy Universe could be possible.

However, in Han Muye’s view, it was inevitable for the Galaxy Universe to conquer others with its mastery of weapon refining, even if the Primordial could unite, it would probably still be unable to withstand the Galaxy Universe.

“Hand over the control of the flying vessel to me,” Han Muye stood up and walked to the bow of the ship, calling out aloud.

Huang Zhihu nodded and pushed a stream of spiritual light toward Han Muye.

Han Muye reached out to touch the spiritual light, and the flying vessel turned, speeding toward a void.

…

“Boom—”

Within the Boundless Chaotic Domain, a desolate star suddenly erupted with a booming explosion.

A second-grade heavenly demon beast with a body over a hundred zhang long transformed into a figure with a black armor blade arm, roaring from its mouth as it lunged forward.

Wings unfurled behind it, stirring gusts of wind to scatter and impact the surroundings.

“Form the array—”

A commanding shout rang out ahead.

At least tens of thousands of cultivators erected barriers of light, which turned into walls.

Along the walls, numerous long spears stood tall.

“Boom—”

The body of the second-grade heavenly demon beast slammed into the barriers, shattering them, and hundreds of cultivators were sent flying.

“Reform the array—”

The voice sounded again, loud and majestic.

Layers of light barriers and nets enveloped the second-grade heavenly demon beast.

With a single motion, the demon beast tore through those light nets.

“Cloud Sky Battle Array—”

Once more, a commanding voice echoed from the front.

Following the shout, layers of battle formations materialized ahead.

Connected with spiritual light, they reached for the skies.

Cultivators’ vital energies and Qi interconnected before fusing into one.

“Boom—”

The body of the heavenly demon beast crashed into the multi-layered light barrier Qi that reached up, failing to break through and instead rolling backward.

The great array that seemed to cover the sky also pressed down.

The overlapping clouds suppressed the second-grade heavenly demon beast, causing its body to tumble but preventing its escape.

“Brothers, put your backs into it, and if we slay this heavenly demon beast, we can exchange it for a Desolate Ancient Weapon, and then our attacks will be much more decisive,” cheered the burly man holding a long trident at the forefront.

“Boom—”

As the Cloud Sky Great Array pressed down, the body of the second-grade heavenly demon beast was shattered.

A pale golden Heavenly Bead floated up.

The burly man swiftly lunged forward, reaching out for the Heavenly Bead.

“Roar—”

At that moment, a long roar sounded.

In mid-air, a heavenly demon beast charged into the array and snatched the Heavenly Bead.

“Roar—”

“Roar—”

Roars echoed one after another.

Around the sky, figures of heavenly demons appeared.

In front of the battle formation, all cultivators turned pale.
