But as he laughed, he suddenly noticed that Ao Chen beside him showed not the slightest hint of joy—instead, his brows were tightly knit, his face full of dissatisfaction.

The Azure Dragon's laughter cut off abruptly. He froze.

Somewhat bewildered, he looked at Ao Chen and asked instinctively, "Daoist Ao Chen, what's the matter?"

Ao Chen sighed softly, making no attempt to hide his thoughts, and spoke directly.

"Too inefficient, too slow!"

The Azure Dragon's eyes went wide at his words.

You succeeded and you're still not satisfied? You're worried about efficiency?

Chapter 45: Myriad Calamities Furnace Body, The Hope of Dragon Clan Revival

Time had never been an issue for the great powers of the Primordial Wilderness, so slowness in efficiency meant nothing in the Azure Dragon's eyes.

Slow efficiency? No big deal—just spend more time. After all, they had all the time in the world.

But now, Ao Chen actually thought it was too slow and seemed ready to give up. This immediately made the Azure Dragon anxious.

"You—"

Just as the Azure Dragon was about to speak, Ao Chen seemed to read his worry and cut him off.

"Daoist, don't worry. This is only the first test. I won't abandon it just yet."

"But this method is indeed a bit slow. Give me some more time. I'll go improve it now."

With those words, Ao Chen didn't wait for the Azure Dragon's reply and vanished on the spot.

Azure Dragon: "????"

It can still be improved?

The Azure Dragon stared blankly at the spot where Ao Chen had disappeared, his mind full of question marks.

He succeeded and still wasn't satisfied? He actually cared about efficiency? And it could be improved?

On the other side, having left the scene, Ao Chen paid no heed to the Azure Dragon's reaction. Instead, he sank once more into deep contemplation.

He knew full well that time meant nothing to true Great Divine Powers. A single closed-door session could span several epochs—what were a few tens of thousands of years?

But the problem was, time was precious to him!

Trace Origin to Transform Karma could dissolve karmic debt, but its efficiency was too low, and it required his personal intervention, which would severely drag down his own cultivation progress.

His goal was the Mythical Grand Unity, to transcend this world, to reach the endless chaos!

Though it was difficult and wouldn't happen overnight, he understood clearly that the era of Heavenly Dao Saints would soon arrive. He had to hurry.

Creating the < Great Dao Origin Scripture · True Immortal Chapter > had already drawn a tribulation lightning transformation. What would happen with the Mystic Immortal and Golden Immortal chapters later?

Perhaps it would invite a siege by Heavenly Dao Saints, perhaps not—but he had to be mentally prepared.

Thus, time was precious to him, urgent and non-negotiable.

And spending hundreds of thousands of years, or even longer, like a nursemaid, helping each Dragon Clan elder dissolve their karmic debt one by one? He didn't have that kind of leisure!

"It seems my direction was wrong after all." A glimmer of insight flashed in Ao Chen's eyes.

"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. My divine ability, though exquisite, is ultimately an external force. It can't solve the root problem."

"Rather than acting personally and wasting endless ages, it's better to create a new method—one that lets them rely on their own power to turn this clinging karmic debt into something useful, even to achieve nirvana rebirth through it!"

"That way, even if the method is slow, it doesn't matter. As long as they persist, they'll eventually dissolve the karmic debt and restore their origin."

"Most importantly, if this method can be cultivated on their own, it won't delay my own cultivation any longer!"

With this thought, Ao Chen's mind suddenly cleared!

He once again found a secluded spot, sat cross-legged, and sank into a deep meditative state.

This time, he no longer focused on how to "dissolve" karmic debt, but on how to "utilize" it!

The Dragon Clan suppressed the Four Seas Abyss, bearing great merit, yet they also became tainted by boundless kalpa Sha Qi and Return to Ruins Death Qi, eventually intertwining with the karmic debt of the Dragon-Han Calamity to form the current situation.

In this Dragon Abyss, the one thing never lacking was karmic debt, Sha Qi, and death Qi!

These were lethal poisons to ordinary beings, but if they could be harnessed...

Inspiration flickered in Ao Chen's mind. Drawing on the scattered insights of past Dragon Clan ancestors who suppressed the abyss and refined kalpa Qi, combined with his own vision of the Mythical Grand Unity Method...

Several years later.

Ao Chen opened his eyes once more. A sharp light gleamed in his pupils, and a satisfied smile spread across his face.

A brand-new body-forging technique, tailored specifically to the Dragon Clan's current plight, had been successfully created!

This method did not directly dissolve karmic debt. Instead, it took the opposite approach!

Using the Dragon Clan's formidable physique as a foundation, it visualized the world as a furnace and the self as a crucible, forcibly drawing in all negative energies—karmic debt, Sha Qi, death Qi—from the outside.

Through a secret technique, these were "refined" like fuel, tempering the body and strengthening the true spirit!

This technique was overwhelmingly domineering and perilous. One misstep could lead to backlash from myriad kalpa energies, reducing one to ashes!

But once successfully cultivated, it would not only gradually dissolve the clinging karmic debt but also transform these destructive forces into powerful nourishment for growth, achieving a breakthrough through destruction and nirvana rebirth!

This technique forges the Myriad Calamities into the body, perfectly suited to the current state of the Dragon Clan and the environment of Dragon Abyss!

Thus, Ao Chen named it—the Myriad Calamities Furnace Body!

Having created this method, Ao Chen immediately sought out the Azure Dragon once more.

"Daoist friend, I have devised another technique. This one does not resolve your Karmic Debt for you, but rather allows you to refine it yourselves, nurturing the body through calamities!" Ao Chen stated bluntly.

The Azure Dragon was stunned again upon hearing this. A method like this? Refining Karmic Debt? Nurturing the body through calamities? This sounded even more fantastical than the previous Trace Origin to Transform Karma!

But before he could question it, Ao Chen directly imprinted the Myriad Calamities Furnace Body's formula, essence, and core principles into his mind.

The Azure Dragon carefully comprehended this profound and domineering technique. The deeper he delved, the stronger the shock in his heart!

Using the body as a furnace to refine the myriad calamities! This... what audacity! What heaven-defying ambition!

Though this method appeared perilous, he could clearly sense that it was absolutely effective!

"Excellent! Truly an excellent Myriad Calamities Furnace Body!"

A brilliance never before seen burst forth in the Azure Dragon's eyes.

"Ao Chen, Daoist friend, you are a genius. Allow me to try once more!"

Ao Chen nodded and directly transmitted the technique to the Azure Dragon.

The Azure Dragon did not hesitate. He immediately began circulating the method as taught, starting his cultivation.

Though his initial grasp of the technique made the circulation unsteady, the effect was undeniably remarkable.

This time, there were no golden light runes. Instead, the Azure Dragon himself drew upon the faint wisps of black Karmic Debt energy around him, along with the pervasive deathly aura and Sha Qi of Dragon Abyss. Following the technique's path, he cautiously guided them into his body, using his residual dragon essence and blood qi power to begin a preliminary "refinement."

The process was excruciatingly slow, and the effect was negligible.

Compared to the immediate results of Trace Origin to Transform Karma, the Myriad Calamities Furnace Body's effect was over a hundred times weaker—so weak that one could barely see any reduction in Karmic Debt!

Yet the Azure Dragon's face lit up with a joy a hundred times more intense than before!

It worked!

It truly worked!

He could clearly feel that the trace of Karmic Debt, deathly aura, and Sha Qi drawn into his body, though difficult to refine, was indeed being guided by the technique. It transformed into an extremely faint yet pure energy, merging into his flesh, blood, and bones, bringing a long-lost sensation of nourishment!

What did this mean?

It meant this technique was viable!

It meant that these aging dragons, waiting for death, could truly rely on themselves, bit by bit, to refine their Karmic Debt, restore their origin, and even grow stronger through cultivating this method!

This was real hope! The hope of the Dragon Clan's revival!

"Hahaha! Heaven aids my Dragon Clan! Heaven aids my Dragon Clan!"

The Azure Dragon was once again moved to tears of joy. He grabbed Ao Chen's hand urgently.

"Ao Chen, Daoist friend! Quickly! Come with me to see the other elders! We must—must—pass this technique to them!"

With that, the Azure Dragon, like a child who had gotten candy, dragged Ao Chen and vanished toward the depths of Dragon Abyss.

Ao Chen watched the ecstatic Azure Dragon and smiled faintly, nodding.

Chapter 46: Dragon Clan's Foundation Shocks Ao Chen, Elders' Awe Ignites Hope

Unable to contain his excitement and urgency, the Azure Dragon ignored his own weakness and forcibly roused his spirit, leading Ao Chen deeper into Dragon Abyss toward the ancient palace shrouded in endless black Karmic Debt energy.

Inside the palace, it was even darker and more deathly still.

The dense Karmic Debt and deathly aura had nearly solidified into a tangible black mist, flowing slowly through the empty hall, ceaselessly eroding all life.

Had it not been for the Dragon Clan's naturally formidable physiques, any ordinary Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal lingering here too long would have their foundation corroded and their true spirit ground away by this terrifying negative energy.

At the deepest part of the hall, there was no throne or altar as one might imagine, but a relatively open, naturally formed cavern. Embedded in the cavern's walls were countless faintly glowing Dragon Pearls, barely illuminating the space.
