Heaven and Earth Without Limits, Primal Chaos Greatsword

"Help me, use your blood. It's an ancient bloodline, I feel it can suppress this aura."

The Wind Dragon began to plead with Lu Chen.

Lu Chen understood that if the Wind Dragon was devoured, he definitely wouldn't escape either. He quickly spat out a mouthful of vital blood and sprinkled it onto the greatsword.

Upon contact with Lu Chen's blood, the greatsword's berserk aura began to burn and dissipate, as if the Azure Emperor Bloodline naturally countered this berserk aura.

Seeing this, Lu Chen directly cut his wrist, and a continuous stream of blood rushed towards the greatsword. The berserk aura in the sky instantly retracted, and the greatsword fell to the ground.

The formation began to reconnect the greatsword and the Wind Dragon. The Wind Dragon infused its aura into the greatsword, entangling with the berserk aura.

This time, with the enhancement of Lu Chen's blood, the Wind Dragon's transformation into an artifact spirit was incredibly fast.

An hour passed, and the formation disappeared.

Lu Chen's blood, the Wind Dragon, and the berserk aura had fused into a single entity, forming a giant dragon of green, black, and red.

The Wind Dragon, now the primary entity, could control the greatsword. The berserk aura also filled the Wind Dragon's body, imbuing it with a ferocious offensive aura.

Lu Chen looked at the completed formation and could feel a connection established between himself and the greatsword.

Lu Chen stepped forward, easily picked up the greatsword, and swung it towards a distant giant mountain. The greatsword flew out and directly cleaved the mountain in front of him.

The Wind Dragon flew out of the greatsword, gathering the surrounding wind elements. It looked at the cleaved mountain and said, "I didn't expect this greatsword to be so sharp."

"Wind Dragon, do you know whose sword this is?" Lu Chen observed the greatsword. The hilt was engraved with the characters for "Primal Chaos"; other than that, the greatsword had no decorations.

Its aura was ancient and simple, lacking any prior imposing presence. If it were just lying on the ground, no one would ever guess it was a peerless sword.

"I don't know either. This sword fell from the sky over ten years ago, directly piercing the barrier. Looking at this material, I've never seen anything like it on the continent."

"At the time, I was resting, and this sword plunged directly into my head. I could feel the greatsword filled with a berserk aura, yet it didn't devour me directly. Instead, it slowly eroded my mind, as if it wanted to seize my body to accomplish something."

"It's only now, because of your blood, that the berserk aura has merged with me. I have now become the artifact spirit and can control the greatsword, but I can feel the berserk aura still growing."

"It seems this sword was placed here with a purpose, but it has failed now," Lu Chen decided not to investigate the greatsword's origin further.

Lu Chen thought for a moment, then handed the Primal Chaos Greatsword to the Wind Dragon and said, "What do you plan to do now? You're no longer controlled by the greatsword, and the Secret Realm has been opened, so you can leave. Do you want to go out and find the Sixth Ancestor's avatar?"

The Wind Dragon did not take the sword. "No, haven't you realized yet? This sword has already recognized you as its master through your blood. That's why you can wield it so easily; otherwise, no one could pick it up under the suppression of the greatsword's berserk aura."

"Since I've become the artifact spirit, I naturally cannot leave you. You keep this sword. Lord Sixth Ancestor is just a clone and will not truly disappear. From today onwards, you, I, and this sword are master and servant."

Lu Chen listened to the Wind Dragon's words. He had already felt the connection with the greatsword before, but he hadn't mentioned it since the Wind Dragon was the greatsword's artifact spirit.

Lu Chen took back the greatsword.

"Alright, I'll accept this sword. I will also help you find the Sixth Ancestor's avatar in the future."

"I must thank you, Master, for today's events. Now that I've become an artifact spirit, my physical body has dissipated, and my cultivation basically needs to start from scratch. However, I still retain the techniques for nurturing spirit beasts that I learned from Lord Sixth Ancestor. I can help you raise spirit beasts in the future and analyze their weaknesses in battle."

Lu Chen looked at the Wind Dragon. Although he had the memories of Feng Tiancheng, Feng Tiancheng only had in-depth research on magic treasures and formations, with relatively shallow research on spirit beasts.

What he lacked now was experience with demonic beasts. The Wind Dragon had arrived at the perfect time, but Lu Chen found the term "master" difficult to accept.

"You don't need to call me master. Since you know Grandpa Feng, you are my elder. Just call me Little Lu."

The Wind Dragon looked at Lu Chen. It had initially decided to follow Lu Chen solely because Lu Chen was the greatsword's master and the Seventh Ancestor's disciple. Otherwise, as a high-level spirit beast, the Wind Dragon would never have recognized anyone as its master. Hearing Lu Chen say this, the Wind Dragon felt that following Lu Chen wasn't so bad; at least Lu Chen was a kind-hearted person.

"Master is so kind and filial. No wonder he was accepted as a disciple by Lord Seventh Ancestor. Then I will take advantage of my age and call Master Little Lu."

Lu Chen spoke to the Wind Dragon, "By the way, can you shrink a bit or transform into human form? Your current appearance is too enormous, and communication is too troublesome."

"Yes."

With that, the Wind Dragon shrank its body and coiled on Lu Chen's head, while also explaining the knowledge of demonic beast transformation to Lu Chen.

Human bodies consume less energy than demonic beast bodies. Demonic beasts generally choose to shed their demonic bodies and transform into human form after stepping into the Chong Tian Realm.

However, some demonic beasts, due to their rapid bloodline cultivation, still maintain their demonic bodies. Over time, these demonic beasts have gradually preserved some secret methods for transforming into human form.

Lu Chen listened to the Wind Dragon's explanation while storing the greatsword into his internal Celestial Pool, which floated west of the Azure Emperor Divine Tree.

The moment Lu Chen stored the Primal Chaos Greatsword within himself, he vaguely heard a voice echo through the heavens and earth: "The heavens and earth are boundless, Primal Chaos opens the sky. Young one, we await you at the end of the heavens."

When Lu Chen regained his senses, this memory seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. The Wind Dragon's shocked voice reached his ears.

"Little Lu, what kind of transformation is happening within you? The Azure Emperor Divine Vine has actually mutated like this, possessing three attributes: water, fire, and wood. It's truly unprecedented. No wonder Lord Seventh Ancestor accepted you as a disciple."

The Wind Dragon felt Lu Chen's Celestial Pool and was greatly astonished. In its heart, even the Azure Emperor did not possess such a Celestial Pool.

"This Celestial Pool is likely the nascent form of a world."

Seeing the Wind Dragon's astonishment, Lu Chen led it into the Twin Fish Plate space. At this moment, the water, fire, and wood elemental energies within the Twin Fish Plate space were extremely dense. Batches of Ganoderma and medicinal herbs had matured one after another. As Lu Chen's strength increased, a plain for raising spirit beasts also emerged.

"This... this is the small world of the Primal Yang Twin Fish Compass? This was Lord Azure Emperor's natal magic treasure."

"The Primal Yang Twin Fish Compass has merged with my Celestial Pool. The changes you just saw were influenced by the Twin Fish Compass. However, the Primal Yang Twin Fish Compass is shattered into pieces, and my current Celestial Pool has become very unstable. I need to find the other fragments as soon as possible."

Looking at the state of the small world, the Wind Dragon said, "Little Lu, can you open a passage for me? I was previously considering how to help you with this plain for raising spirit beasts. Now that this space exists, raising spirit beasts will no longer be a problem."

Lu Chen nodded at the Wind Dragon's suggestion and granted it access to the Twin Fish Plate world: "This method is feasible, but we must hurry to the center of the Secret Realm. Wind Dragon, do you know how to get there quickly?"

"Entering this Secret Realm involves random teleportation. We are still at the outermost edge. To reach the center, you must trek through a spiral passage. There is no other way."

"During this process, you will pass through five regions: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. My area is the Wind Valley, and due to the previous turmoil, there are no resources left. However, other areas are teeming with spirit beasts, demonic beasts, and medicinal herbs. We can collect some when we pass through."

"There are other leaders in the other regions who are also Lord Sixth Ancestor's spirit beasts. I think you need to meet them, but you will have to work hard to gain their recognition."

"Where should I go now?" Lu Chen asked the Wind Dragon.

"We'll head forward through this area, and then we'll reach the Fiery Hell. The leader there is the Flame Demon, and he has a very short temper, so you must be extra careful."

"Alright, let's set off for the Fiery Hell then."

Two hours later, Lu Chen appeared on the main road. Cultivators who hadn't shown up earlier because the Wind Valley was sealed began to appear around him. Scattered cultivators were hunting spirit beasts and gathering medicinal herbs.

The Spiritual Energy in the Secret Realm was denser than in the outside world. Spirit beasts, demonic beasts, and medicinal herbs were also of much better quality than outside. A small team of four by the roadside was hunting a demonic beast in the Breath Regulation Realm. Seeing Lu Chen appear, they all became cautious.

"Big Brother, someone appeared over there. They seem to only be in the Qi Gathering Realm. Should we take them out first?"

"Our priority is to seize the source. Those Sects definitely won't be kind enough to let us get resources for free. Once they get what they need, they'll come back to snatch our resources. We need to hurry. A mere Qi Gathering Realm cultivator can't cause much trouble. Hurry up and kill this demonic beast, then we'll head to the next area." One person in the team of four said without looking back.

"Yes, Big Brother..."

Lu Chen ignored these people. He just wanted to quickly reach the next area. This area was already the boundary between the Wind Valley and the Fiery Hell, and some small Flame Monsters in the Qi Gathering Realm and wind-attribute flying insects had started appearing.

The Wind Dragon explained above Lu Chen's head, "Crossing this area will lead you into the Flame Demon's territory. You must be very careful. You are now at the Grand Perfection of the Qi Gathering Realm, and your Spiritual Energy has liquefied. You can try to project your Spiritual Energy outwards and attach it to the Azure Emperor Divine Tree's tentacles or your weapon for Spiritual Energy attacks."

Lu Chen listened to the Wind Dragon's words and searched his memory for how to release Spiritual Energy. Slowly, wisps of Spiritual Energy condensed on his hand, only to disappear in an instant.

"Not bad. You're much faster than Lord Sixth Ancestor back then. Lord Sixth Ancestor spent two days just to mobilize a wisp of Spiritual Energy."

"With more practice, you'll definitely be able to release it for longer. Fire-attribute demonic beasts fear water, so you can try to summon water-attribute Spiritual Energy."

Lu Chen summoned the Primal Chaos Greatsword. After experimenting all the way, he finally managed to cover the sword body with Spiritual Energy.

Lu Chen looked at the Flame Monster in front of him, which was at the Grand Perfection of the Qi Gathering Realm. He didn't know any sword techniques, but he casually swung his sword and cleaved the Flame Monster in half.

"Truly powerful."

Lu Chen looked at the Flame Monster split in two. Before this, it would have taken him quite some effort to hunt a demonic beast. But now, with Spiritual Energy attached and the greatsword, he could kill a demonic beast with a casual strike.

Lu Chen sheathed his sword and continued forward, constantly experimenting with attaching Spiritual Energy to various attacks and attacking demonic beasts along the way.

Gradually, the fire-attribute elements became denser. There were no longer any trees around, only volcanoes and lava. Lu Chen's Celestial Pool began to stir restlessly.
