In the Primordial Desolation World, Ten Suns in the Sky, the Golden Crow fell to earth, the Ancestral Witch perished, Da Yi Shoots the Suns... A great calamity followed, and the Calamity Qi intensified, seemingly foreshadowing an irreversible development of the situation.
In the distant Depths of Chaos, beyond the reach of the Heavenly Dao's net, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Demon Master Kunpeng, and a host of elite Demon Clan continued their relentless advance.
Having broken free from the omnipresent and suffocating invisible constraints of the Primordial Desolation Heavenly Dao, Taiyi and Kunpeng led a team that could be considered the elite of the Demon Clan race, carving out a relatively safe route through the raging and chaotic Chaos Aura.
The seven Demon Saints, plus Taiyi and Kunpeng, make up nine Quasi-Saint Mighty Being. Below them are dozens of Demon God, all of whom are at the Great Luo Realm.
Their goal was to explore the Chaos and find the opportunity to attain the Hunyuan Great Luo.
At the same time, they also needed to create a way out for the Demon Clan. The Demon Clan's situation was not good before they left, so if they could survive in the Chaos Land, it might not be a bad idea.
After careful exploration and comparison, Taiyi and Kunpeng identified a peculiar area that was neither too close nor too far from the Primordial Desolation Heavenly Dao Barrier.
Although the Chaos Aura here is surging and powerful, it subtly resonates with the pulse of the Primordial Desolation World, making it a relatively calm place compared to other areas.
Furthermore, the Chaos Law here are not so disordered, allowing for the formation of a relatively stable "Chaos Anchor Point".
"We've already explored several places, so let's choose this one!" Taiyi transmitted his voice to Kunpeng and the various Demon Saint and Demon God, "The Laws here are relatively stable, and although the Chaos Aura fluctuates, it's still within a controllable range."
"From this place, let us begin to establish the first foothold of our Demon Clan in the outer Chaos. Gentlemen, let us begin!"
"Yes, sir!"
Needless to say, the many Daluo Golden Immortal were temporarily useless and could only retreat to a distance, while the remaining nine top-tier Quasi-Saint- Saints of the Primordial World mobilized their own Laws and Magical Power.
Taiyi took the lead, with the Eastern Emperor Bell hovering above his head, emitting a long and powerful "clang"!
Invisible ripples spread out, and wherever they passed, the raging Chaos Aura suddenly stopped and calmed down as if smoothed out by a giant hand, forming a huge zone of no fluctuation.
In the brief moment when the bell's sound froze the space, the nine Quasi-Saint simultaneously made their moves, each mobilizing the Laws within their bodies. Some condensed boundless Magical Power into giant axes, others evolved chains of divine Laws to open up meridians and spaces, and still others urged their Natal True Flame to incinerate the Chaos Turbid Qi... Vast power poured out from their hands without reservation, violently impacting the area suppressed by the Chaos Bell!
Space expanded amidst a sharp tearing sound, and the originally disordered Chaos Aura was dispersed and transformed.
The Light Qi slowly rose, seemingly forming the shape of the Firmament; while the heavy and turbid energy settled downwards, revealing the rudimentary form of the earth.
At the same time, the various Laws that everyone had comprehended were released within this space, and under the guidance of a hazy will, they began to slowly condense, attempting to construct the operating rules of this Small World.
However, the corrosive power of Chaos is incredibly tenacious. The nascent world groans under its unbearable burden, and matter at its edges is constantly being assimilated and torn apart by Chaos.
"Suppress!" Taiyi flashed with divine light as he fully activated the Eastern Emperor Bell.
The ancient bell burst forth with brilliant light, its profound power suppressing the space and enveloping the entire newly opened area, isolating it from external impacts.
As the bells continued to ring, the edge of the world, which had been constantly assimilated by the forces of Chaos, began to stabilize.
This monumental undertaking of world creation lasted for an unknown period of time. With Taiyi's dedicated support and the continuous shaping and consolidation by the other eight powerful beings, a Lesser Thousand World of considerable scale finally took shape.
Although this World Rules, crude Laws, and a much smaller area than Primordial World primordial world, it contains both Clear and Turbid Qi and impure elements, and has begun to exhibit all things in the universe. Under the continuous Divine Might of the Eastern Emperor Bell, the core area has formed a stable internal space, large enough to accommodate powerful beings.
The world has just been established and is still fragile.
Moreover, this fragile Lesser Thousand World is currently unable to accommodate powerful beings like Taiyi others; otherwise, it might collapse instantly.
Taiyi voice:
The World Foundation has been laid, but it still needs protection. My Eastern Emperor Bell cannot be used to suppress the world and resist the erosion of Chaos forever!
For now, let's follow the instructions of the Demon Emperor and Dao Venerable Jiang Yun and construct the Chaos Fetal Membrane Great Formation outside the world!
This well-known plan was immediately implemented.
Taiyi directed operations from the center, Kunpeng oversaw the arrangement of the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation Diagram, and the seven Demon Saints each led a group of Quasi-Saint and Great Luo Divine Generals, working busily in the outer Chaos of the newly formed Small World according to the Formations's positions.
They took out the resources accumulated by the Demon Clan before leaving the Primordial World, as well as a large amount of precious materials that they had specially collected and refined with the guidance of Dao Venerable Jiang Yun's Star Chart. Among them were many divine treasures that were rare in the Primordial World but could still be found in this outer Chaos world.
"At the Qian position, 90,000 cubic meters of Mystic Magnetic Star Crystal are needed to activate the power of spatial stability!"
"In the Kun position, the Earth Veins Origin Stone activate the foundation of Chaos, laying 108,000!"
"The Kan and Li trigrams, representing the Water-Fire Essence, construct the cyclical flow of Yin-Yang..."
Commands were transmitted swiftly and accurately, and those with such cultivation levels cooperated seamlessly and in perfect harmony.
The Demon Clan's top-notch Formations formation skills were on full display at this moment, and all the participants were highly skilled and their efficiency was astonishing.
The outlines of six enormous array bases, resembling both lotus flowers and Tortoise Shell, began to slowly take shape around the nascent world in the Chaos.
The core concept of this formation is derived from the "Chaos Fetal Membrane" that Jiang Yun talked about at Spirit Bamboo Mountain, and it was later tested in practice during the construction of the Demon Clan Heavenly Court.
Its core functions are twofold: firstly, it provides powerful isolation and protection, acting like a resilient membrane that effectively blocks the direct impact of most Chaos Aura, preventing the world from being Chaos and disintegrated by chaos; secondly, it transforms and nourishes, allowing the Formations to absorb some of the relatively mild Chaos Aura and, through the profound transformation mechanism within the formation, filter, decompose, and purify the violent and chaotic power within, ultimately generating pure Innate Spiritual Qi that can be used for the cultivation of living beings and the operation of heaven and earth, thus nourishing the interior of the Small World.
The process of setting up the Formations was complex and lengthy, with tens of thousands of years quietly passing by in the Depths of Chaos.
Finally, the six enormous fetal Fetal Membrane Great Formation simultaneously lit up with mysterious light, connecting with each other to form a vast energy light network that enveloped the entire Small World.
After the light network stabilized, it was clear that most of the raging Chaos Aura was gently guided away the moment it touched the light network, with only a very small portion, like a sifted trickle, being drawn into the array.
Within the Laws, the patterns of laws flickered and undercurrents surged. After being digested and purified by the complex transformation core inside, wisps of Innate Spiritual Qi, though weak, were continuously injected into the Lesser Thousand World.
The foundation of the world is quietly becoming more solid, and the Earth Spirit is slowly filling up.
Meanwhile, in the core area of Lesser Thousand World, which was tightly protected by the Fetal Membrane Great Formation, an extremely magnificent and complex Spatial Formation was also being constructed simultaneously.
The Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation Diagram of this Great Formation is partly derived from the secrets that Di Jun deciphered from the ancient teleportation array of the Moon Star Core, partly from Kunpeng's profound understanding of the Great Dao of Space, a master of Formations, and partly from certain Spatial Node patterns in Jiang Yun's Chaos Space Coordinate Map.
Taiyi personally supervised the completion of this formation. He stroked a piece of warm and smooth Moon-Soul Divine Stone at the core of the formation base. This was one of the core formation elements that Di Jun had dismantled from the Moon Star Formation.
The Formations was successfully constructed, and fluorescent light began to emanate from within it.
"This formation is complete, and it echoes the ancient formation within the Moon Core controlled by my brother, Di Jun."
Once both arrays are activated simultaneously, they can traverse endless Chaos distances and establish a stable spatial passage.
This is also a way out left for my Demon Clan!
Kunpeng, this formation is entrusted to you for protection.
This is the key reason why Di Jun entrusted Xihe and Changxi with this mission: in times of crisis, they could use this spatial connection to safely bring the Bloodline of the Golden Crow and some elite Demon Clan to this place.
With the world firmly established, the protective and transformative Great Formation set up, and the spatial escape route secured, Taiyi knew that to maintain the long-term vitality and growth potential of a world, relying solely on the Great Formation to transform external Chaos energy was far from sufficient.
He solemnly took out a jade box that had been carefully crafted from Stars Divine Soil and Spatial Origin Water.
Upon opening the box, a vibrant, Xiantian aura brimming with powerful life force wafted out, resonating with all the living beings present.
Inside the box was a sapling of Spirit Root emitting a faint blue light!
Its branches and leaves are like cast glass, and its stems are upright and contain Dao Patterns. Although it is still young, it is full of spirituality and is extremely precious.
"A superior-grade Innate Spiritual Root — the Void Green Wutong Tree!" A Demon Saint couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
When I listened to Jiang Yun preach at Spirit Bamboo Mountain, Jiang Yun said that a world needs something to suppress it so that the space can be more stable. If it is suppressed by Innate Spiritual Root, the vitality of the world will be more vigorous. The Spirit Root can also transform energy from Chaos to nourish the world. At the same time, if the world advances, the Spirit Root can also benefit and continue to grow, which is very beneficial.
Therefore, before Taiyi others left the Primordial World, the Demon Clan race spent a great deal of effort to bring out several high-grade Innate Spiritual Root from the Primordial World, and the Void Green Wutong Tree was one of them.
Taiyi carefully planted the Spirit Root seedling in the location where the Heaven and Earth Origin Qi the Lesser Thousand World was most refined, near the spiritual energy output port of the Fetal Membrane Great Formation.
This is one of the treasures the Demon Clan brought on this trip, and it is also a practice based on Jiang Yun's World Law concept.
The seedlings were enveloped in a specially refined Immortal Soil that combined the divine essence of the Xirang with the primordial liquid of Chaos, and slowly sank into the soil.
The next moment, a vibrant life force spread from it to the world, its tiny roots greedily absorbing the spiritual energy transformed by the Fetal Membrane Great Formation and the primordial energy of the world's Earth Veins.
The tender branches and leaves swayed gently, emitting a soft bluish glow.
As if it were alive, this halo began to actively regulate the surrounding, not yet fully stable, Great Earth Spirit Veins, calm the fluctuations in the Earth Qi, and slowly but continuously release the pure spiritual energy and the aura of the Great Dao Laws that it had absorbed, nourishing the entire Small World space.
Like Sea-Calming Divine Needle, it adds stability and vitality to this newborn world.
With the initial construction tasks largely completed, Taiyi summoned Kunpeng and all members of the Demon Clan to begin the follow-up arrangements.
"Demon Master," Taiyi looked at Kunpeng, his eyes filled with trust and entrustment, "This place is a retreat route for our clan, and its stability and safety are of paramount importance."
I must delve into the Chaos, explore the World Ruins, and seek the opportunity to attain enlightenment and the resources to strengthen my race.
The immense responsibility of this place rests solely in your hands.
Kunpeng nodded solemnly and agreed without the slightest complaint or shirking of responsibility, fully aware of the weight of this duty to stay behind.
"Your Eastern Emperor Your Majesty, rest assured!"
With Kunpeng present, this world will surely be safe.
With the outer protective Fetal Membrane Great Formation, the inner nourishment of the Void Green Wutong Tree, and the presence of numerous Great Luo generals, as long as we proceed steadily and surely, our defenses will be impregnable.
He paused, then shared some of his thoughts. "Furthermore, by staying here these days, I think I can get a good chance to comprehend the mysteries of the Chaos Fetal Membrane Formations."
If we can integrate the essence of its core 'transformation' and 'isolation' into our clan's inherited Heavenly Demon Body-Refining Great Method, it may greatly enhance our tribe's ability to resist the erosion of Chaos Qi and resolve the hidden danger that our Great Luo Realm brothers cannot survive in Chaos for long.
Living in Chaos for so long, physical strength is fundamental; we must improve everyone's survival skills.
Taiyi nodded approvingly. "The Demon Master's words are well thought out and excellent!"
"Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, Ci Tie, the three of you will accompany me on our journey Depths of Chaos."
He then named three of the most experienced Demon Saint, who clasped their hands in acceptance of the order.
"The remaining four of you," Taiyi said, turning to Fei Dan, Shang Yang, Qin Yuan, Bai Ze.
Fei Dan will lead and assist the Demon Master in guarding this realm.
Your most important task is to lead all your Great Luo Divine Generals, under the overall command of the Demon Master, to continuously collect all usable resources in the relatively safe area outside the Chaos Fetal Membrane Great Formation, with this realm as the center!
Chaos Spirit Materials, Shattered Star Core, Descendants of ancient Spirit Root... everything that can strengthen the World Origin, accelerate its World Evolution, and enhance its overall strength is what we need!
The harvest will be prioritized for consolidating the Fetal Membrane Great Formation, cultivating the Void Green Wutong Tree, and for future construction needs.
"We will obey Your Majesty's command!" Fei Dan and the other three Demon Saint responded in unison.
Kunpeng added:
The collected teams can periodically rotate and rest within the Great Formation.
I will create a space between this realm and the Fetal Membrane Great Formation to establish a temporary treasure trove and workshop, attempt to process the collected materials, and study the method of improving body refinement.
If you encounter any problems, contact us through the core array symbol of this realm.
He pointed to a Runic Crystal floating in the main hall, connected to the core of the Fetal Membrane Great Formation.
After the assignments were completed, each demon performed its duties.
Taiyi and the three Demon Saint rested briefly to adjust their condition.
Kunpeng immediately led the remaining Demon Saint and Great Luo immortals to begin deploying resource gathering routes, research projects, and defense rotation systems according to the plan.
