Lin Tian's heart surged with ecstasy, an uncontrollable tide of elation crashing through him like a raging wave!

After all, that Ling Daozi was no ordinary figure—he was a Saint Venerable powerhouse from the Primordial Chaos era!

Though he had no idea what realm a Saint Venerable represented, he knew it placed one at the very pinnacle!

Such an ancient and enigmatic figure's memories were bound to conceal countless secrets and immensely powerful techniques.

Especially those of the Primordial Chaos level—if he could learn even a few of them, it would be a heaven-sent fortune for Lin Tian!

With that thought, Lin Tian acted without hesitation.

He took a deep breath, instantly mobilizing the surging Chaos Force within him, and began to fully activate the Chaos Great Dao Art.

As the art cycled, an invisible suction force radiated from Lin Tian, sweeping straight toward Ling Daozi's Primordial Spirit fragments.

Meanwhile, a startling change occurred in the outside world.

The wisps of purple qi that had been quietly floating in the void seemed to respond to some summons, rushing eagerly toward Lin Tian's location.

In the blink of an eye, these purple qi surged like a tide into Lin Tian's body.

Instantly, Lin Tian was enveloped in dense purple qi, his entire form resembling a deity descending into the mortal world, radiating a divine light that stirred the heart.

Moreover, as the purple qi continued to merge, his aura visibly climbed, growing stronger and stronger.

Time slipped by silently; who knew how long had passed.

Finally, at a certain moment, Lin Tian's body jolted violently, and a cataclysmic wave of immense energy erupted from within him!

"Hahaha, not bad at all! I never thought refining that wretched old dog's Primordial Spirit fragments would let me break through to the late Chaos Realm in one go!" Lin Tian let out a long roar, his excitement plain to see.

He then slowly rose to his feet, stretching his limbs, and a series of crisp, pleasant cracks echoed from his joints.

Lin Tian threw his head back and laughed wildly, his bold and unrestrained laughter flowing freely across the continent, reverberating through the air.

"Huh? What's going on? Where did those purple qi floating in the void go?" Lin Tian abruptly stopped laughing, staring in confusion at the emptiness of the sky.

After a careful look, the faint purple qi that had been drifting in the void had vanished without a trace!

These purple qi, though few in number, were likely precious remnants left behind from the Primordial Chaos era!

Having endured such a long span of time and countless cycles of change, the energy they contained might have been nearly depleted.

Yet even so, for Lin Tian, these purple qi still held immense allure and value.

"Could it be... that I absorbed them?" The thought suddenly flashed through Lin Tian's mind as he recalled his own rapid surge in strength.

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed—after all, aside from this explanation, there was no other reasonable cause for the purple qi's disappearance.

He activated his Primordial Spirit and sensed the continent again, still finding no living beings!

"It seems those purple qi really were absorbed by me. No wonder my strength grew so much. I just don't know how long it's been."

Lin Tian counted on his fingers, but frowned. "What's this? I can't calculate the time? Is the space here distorted?"

Lin Tian analyzed the situation, unable to figure out why.

Could it be because this was the Chaos Edge, and this space was a remnant from the Primordial Chaos era, obscuring the heavenly mechanisms so that he couldn't calculate how much time had passed?

"Forget it, if I can't calculate it, then so be it!"

Though puzzled, Lin Tian still had matters to attend to.

"Ah, what a pity. That old dog's Primordial Spirit fragments only contained scattered memory snippets, with no valuable techniques or manuals left behind." Lin Tian shook his head helplessly, sighing inwardly.

From those fragments, Lin Tian only gleaned some information.

This Ling Daozi had been born from a stone at the dawn of the Primordial Chaos.

After receiving a legacy, he cultivated alone in silence, eventually reaching the Primordial Chaos Saint Venerable level.

In the end, to vie for the Primordial Chaos Purple Lotus and the Primordial Chaos Supreme Cauldron, he joined others of the same rank in besieging Dao Tian and Luo Li.

Ultimately, he was beaten down to a mere wisp of a remnant soul.

"What a shame. I didn't expect that old dog to hold back even in death, afraid I'd get his legacy. Damn old dog."

He had originally thought he could at least obtain some cultivation methods or secret arts from him to further boost his strength.

Who would have guessed that Ling Daozi had played a trick, destroying his own Primordial Spirit as he died.

Even in death, he refused to let Lin Tian gain any benefit.

In the end, all Lin Tian got was a boost to his own Primordial Spirit's power, with nothing else of substance.

A few scattered memories—just his life experiences, all useless?

Faced with such an outcome, Lin Tian couldn't help but feel some disappointment and regret.

But he also knew that surviving such a perilous situation was already a stroke of luck; he shouldn't be too greedy about other gains.

So, Lin Tian let out a light sigh and quickly adjusted his mindset.

"At least there's still a broken sword left behind."

Lin Tian looked at the broken sword before him, slowly stepped forward, and with a wave of his hand, the broken sword was grasped in his palm.

"What a fine sword, truly a fine sword."

Lin Tian examined it from left to right. The hilt was carved with an unknown pattern; though incomplete, it still faintly shimmered with flowing radiance, revealing its extraordinary nature.

"A pity, that now only a small fragment of the blade remains."

Lin Tian could not discern its material, but he understood that it was superior to any Chaos-grade material.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Lin Tian, and he thought of an excellent idea.

"The material of this broken sword can just be used to repair my two supreme treasures, the Primordial Chaos Purple Lotus and the Primordial Chaos Supreme Cauldron, and should be able to raise their grades somewhat."

Because they all belonged to the Primordial Chaos era, it should be useful for repairing the Primordial Chaos Purple Lotus and the Primordial Chaos Saint Venerable Cauldron.

He recalled that previously, he had consumed many Chaos materials, yet none could elevate the grade of the Primordial Chaos Purple Lotus or the Primordial Chaos Supreme Cauldron by even a sliver—not even a single sliver.

Now that he had Primordial Chaos materials on hand, it was just the time to try!

Thus, Lin Tian brought out the Primordial Chaos Purple Lotus and the Primordial Chaos Supreme Cauldron.

Immediately after, he closed his eyes, his hands swiftly forming seals, his lips murmuring incantations as he fully channeled the mana within his body.

As his hand seals were executed, wisps of Chaos Flame rose from his palm, coiling around the Primordial Chaos Supreme Cauldron like agile fire dragons.

The Chaos Flame blazed fiercely, its scorching heat seeming to melt the entire space.

Yet Lin Tian remained utterly unmoved. He focused entirely on controlling the fire, continuously increasing his mana output, and began to refine the broken sword.
