Journey to the Chaos Edge!

Several thousand epochs passed.

Pangu was the first to awaken. Sensing the aura within his body, he was greatly satisfied. "My strength has broken through to the early Chaos Realm. A cause for celebration! Hahaha!!!"

Lin Tian, Yang Mei, and the Chaos Demon Ape awoke one after another.

The Chaos Demon Ape had broken through to the middle Heavenly Dao Realm.

Yang Mei had broken through to the late Heavenly Dao Realm.

Lin Tian, meanwhile, had broken through to the middle Chaos Realm.

Overall, everyone had gained greatly from this discussion of the Dao.

Everyone present had reaped abundant rewards from this discussion of the Dao and received considerable benefits.

After the discussion ended, they congratulated one another on their greatly increased strength.

Joy filled their faces, and laughter echoed through Lin Dao Pavilion.

Seeing this, Lin Tian was in an especially good mood. From his storage space, he continuously took out many long-hoarded spirit fruits and fragrant Spiritual Wine.

Each of those spirit fruits was crystal-clear, like rare treasures of the world.

The Spiritual Wine gave off a rich and alluring fragrance that was intoxicating at a single whiff. It had been aged far longer than the wine Lin Tian had brought out before.

Not only that, Lin Tian specially brought out some incomparably precious Chaos Giant Beast meat and handed it to the Chaos Demon Ape beside him, signaling for him to roast it.

The Chaos Demon Ape gladly accepted the task, skillfully lit a bonfire, and began roasting it attentively.

Lin Tian smiled at Pangu and Yang Mei. "This Chaos Giant Beast meat is a rare delicacy. You two must have a good taste of it later!"

Upon hearing that, anticipation flashed through Pangu and Yang Mei's eyes. Clearly, Lin Tian's description of the food had stirred their appetites.

"Good! We shall properly taste this roasted meat Fellow Daoist Lin Tian speaks so highly of and see how it is."

Pangu laughed boldly, and his uninhibited nature won everyone's favor.

Seeing this, Yang Mei also took out spirit fruits he had treasured for a long time. He had obtained them while traveling through Chaos in his earlier years. Though their grade was not high, they would suffice.

Yang Mei slashed at the void, opening a Space Rift. With a wave of his hand, he brought out many rare spirit fruits.

"Fellow Daoist Yang Mei has quite good fortune to have obtained so many spirit fruits."

When Lin Tian saw the spirit fruits Yang Mei had taken out, some of them seemed inexplicably familiar.

Upon thinking carefully, he recalled encountering some spirit roots before. However, Lin Tian had collected many high-grade spirit roots at the time and had looked down on those low-grade ones, so he had not taken them.

He had never expected Yang Mei to collect them instead.

Yang Mei smiled awkwardly. "This old Daoist has shallow fortune and only found some Primordial Spirit Roots. Shameful, shameful!"

Yang Mei felt somewhat embarrassed and lowered his head sheepishly. He had eaten quite a few of Fellow Daoist Lin Tian's Chaos spirit fruits, yet he had only brought out Primordial spirit fruits. He truly felt ashamed.

After all, these were all spirit fruits and Spiritual Wine treasured by Fellow Daoist Lin Tian.

Pangu, who stood nearby, could not help bursting into laughter at the sight.

He waved his hand boldly and said, "Oh, you two, stop exchanging pleasantries here. Come, come, drinking to our hearts' content is the important thing!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Pangu unhesitatingly lifted the cup of fine wine before him and tipped his head back, draining it in one gulp.

With several gulps, the wine in the cup vanished without a single drop left behind.

After drinking it, Pangu smacked his lips and could not help praising it. "Good wine, good wine! Truly peerless nectar! Hahaha!!!"

Seeing Pangu's bold manner, Lin Tian smiled faintly, then turned to Pangu and Yang Mei. "If you two like these spirit fruits and Spiritual Wine, I still have quite a lot here. I can give some to you to take back and savor slowly."

Hearing this, Pangu and Yang Mei first exchanged a glance, each seeing the undisguised desire in the other's eyes.

During this period of discussing the Dao, both of them had already been drawn in by Lin Tian's things, especially the Spiritual Wine, which they had come to cherish deeply.

After hesitating briefly, the two ultimately decided not to refuse any longer and accepted Lin Tian's goodwill openly.

"Since that is so, we shall gladly accept. Many thanks to Fellow Daoist Lin Tian for your generous gift!"

Pangu clasped his hands and smiled.

Yang Mei was no longer embarrassed to keep refusing. He thought that if he continued to hesitate like this, he would instead appear overly bound by etiquette.

Thus, he nodded as well and replied with a smile, "Then sorry for the trouble, Fellow Daoist Lin Tian."

Lin Tian waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing.

At that moment, the Chaos Demon Ape had finished roasting the meat, and Lin Tian hurriedly invited everyone to taste it.

The group then began feasting heartily.

"Mmm, delicious! Truly delicious! Fellow Daoist Lin Tian is a genius to have thought of this!"

"Mm, indeed. To have a friend like you, Lin Tian, is truly my good fortune."

Pangu and Yang Mei praised the food as they ate, and they also praised the Chaos Demon Ape's roasting.

The Chaos Demon Ape said nothing from the side. Instead, he wolfed down meat and gulped down Spiritual Wine.

Seeing this, Lin Tian felt a little embarrassed.

A mighty Chaos Demon Ape, acting like such a glutton.

At that moment, the Chaos Demon Ape had no eyes for anything else but meat and wine.

From the moment Lin Tian had brought out the Spiritual Wine, the Chaos Demon Ape had become deeply intoxicated by its unique flavor and unable to free himself.

Whenever he smelled that rich aroma, it felt as if countless ants were crawling through his heart, leaving him unbearably itchy and desperate to drain an entire jug at once!

Yet helplessly, Lin Tian always warned him that the Spiritual Wine was costly to brew and limited in quantity, so he had to drink it sparingly.

Hearing this, the Chaos Demon Ape could only stare longingly at that tempting Spiritual Wine.

At times, he would even gaze at Lin Tian with an utterly resentful look, like a child whose beloved toy had been taken away.

As for Lin Tian, he was thoroughly frightened by the Chaos Demon Ape's grievance-filled gaze, and he could not help wondering, Could something be wrong with this guy's sexual orientation?

Why does he keep staring at me like that?!

Thus, whenever Lin Tian noticed the Chaos Demon Ape casting that strange look his way, he would quickly move far away, afraid of becoming involved with him.

This time, having finally found an opportunity to drink to his heart's content, the Chaos Demon Ape naturally refused to let it slip away!

He had made up his mind to drink several more jugs before he was satisfied. After all, who knew whether he would have such good fortune again next time?

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, the atmosphere gradually quieted.

Yang Mei slowly rose to his feet with a smile and stated that he intended to return to his Daoist abode at once for secluded cultivation, so that he could calmly and carefully comprehend the gains from this discussion of the Dao.

At the same time, Pangu said, "I have not been in this world for long and am filled with curiosity and a desire to explore this Chaos World. Therefore, I wish to take this opportunity to travel through Chaos properly." Excitement and anticipation gleamed in his eyes.

Meanwhile, the Chaos Demon Ape could no longer restrain the excitement in his heart.

This experience had greatly increased his strength, and he was now eager to find other Demon Gods and test himself against them.

Lin Tian did not stop the Chaos Demon Ape from doing so.

He knew that, with the Chaos Demon Ape's current strength, he already possessed a certain ability to protect himself.

Keeping him at his side might instead restrict his room for growth.

After all, the Chaos Demon Ape cultivated the Law of Battle. Only through continuous battle could he better unleash his potential and surpass himself.

Next, Lin Tian also revealed his own intention—to journey to the edge of Chaos and investigate it, to find out just how vast Chaos truly was.

After chatting for a few more moments, they parted ways.

Lin Tian looked at the expanse of Chaos in the distance. His mana circulated as he flew toward the faraway horizon.

It was because, earlier, Lin Tian's primordial spirit had suddenly stirred, and he sensed that something at the Chaos Edge seemed to be drawing him in!

So he had to make the trip and find out what it was!
