Swallowing the Stars: Starting with Optimizing the Five Hearts Towards the Sky

Chapter 696 Half-Primordial Chaos Primordial Dao

The Jade Palace Star Palace is located in the core holy land of the Southern Continent, the Nine Realms Immortal Realm. As the name suggests, it is a world composed of nine peak forces, with a total of nine regions.

Among the nine regions, the "Bright Light Domain" established by the Celestial Venerable Li is the most revered.

However, none of this mattered to Chen Yuan. His and Yuan's purpose for this trip was the Jade Palace Domain, where the Jade Palace Star Palace was located.

With Yuan carrying him, the speed was still very fast. Even though his divine body was suppressed to the peak of the Chaos Realm by the Origin World, it only took him a blink of an eye to travel from the Central Continent to the Southern Continent.

"We've arrived. This is the Jade Palace Star Palace."

Yuan led Chen Yuan to stand in a world that seemed to be made of white jade. In front of them was a palace complex formed of blue jade, which was the Jade Palace Star Palace.

To Chen Yuan's surprise, a large group of people were standing densely packed on the white jade square outside the palace. At the head of the group was a woman dressed in a light purple palace dress, and in front of her knelt an old man in a purple robe.

The other party seemed unsurprised by Chen Yuan and his companion's arrival. Their expression turned solemn, and they immediately bowed respectfully to the two.

"Gu Yao, leading 10080 core members of the Jade Palace Star Palace, paid homage to Lord Yuan and Lord Chen Dao."

As soon as the woman in the pale purple palace dress, Gu Yao, finished speaking, the ten thousand Star Palace members behind her simultaneously bowed: "Greetings, Lord Yuan!"

Master Chen.

Chen Yuan was somewhat surprised and turned to look at Yuan: "Brother Yuan, did you come prepared all along?"

"I did not give any prior notice."

Yuan's gaze swept over the woman in the light purple palace dress, and a smile appeared on his lips: "It was this Jade Palace Master who foresaw our whereabouts in advance. She truly deserves to be a cultivator who has mastered the Dao of Escape."

Shaking his head, Yuan looked at the people from Jade Palace and said, "Get up, everyone."

"As you command, Lord."

Tens of thousands of Jade Palace members then stood up. Yuan said to the Jade Palace Master, "Niece Gu Yao, have your people withdraw."

o

Niece? Chen Yuan glanced at the Jade Palace Master in surprise, then turned to look at Yuan.

Yuan secretly transmitted his voice, saying, "Gu Jun was a contemporary of mine, but he was unlucky and failed to master the Dao at the Hunyuan level. This Gu Yao is Gu Jun's daughter."

Chen Yuan suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. I didn't expect this palace master to have this identity."

However, judging from Gu Yao's respectful attitude towards Yuan, he guessed that the two were not very close.

With a wave of her hand, the Jade Palace Master Gu Yao sent the Star Palace members behind her flying away, disappearing completely in the blink of an eye.

"Niece Gu Yao, this is—" Yuan glanced at the purple-robed old man who was still kneeling.

The Jade Palace Master respectfully said, "He is one of the core elders of the Jade Palace Star Palace, but he committed the crime of 'favoritism' and offended this Daoist Master Chen, so I arrested him and handed him over to Daoist Master Chen for punishment."

"What does this have to do with me?" Chen Yuan was taken aback. He glanced at the purple-robed old man and felt that he was a complete stranger.

He shook his head: "I have never seen this person before."

"It's normal not to have seen it before," the Jade Palace Master explained. "Actually, it's like this—"

She told Chen Yuan that the purple-robed elder had manipulated the Jade Disc to reveal Chen Yuan's whereabouts to the Extraterrestrial God Emperor. Only then did Chen Yuan understand that the reason why the three Tribulation Cultivators were able to find him was because his whereabouts had been leaked by this person.

"This person has offended Master Chen. What should be done? Please advise, Master."

The Jade Palace Master was very respectful, showing no disrespect to Chen Yuan, who was also a half-Chaotic Origin Lifeform.

"This—" Chen Yuan glanced at the purple-robed old man, thinking of the purpose of his trip and not wanting to cause any trouble, so he shook his head and said, "Since they are people from the Jade Palace Star Palace, they should be dealt with by the Palace Master. As an outsider, I should not interfere."

Upon hearing this, the Jade Palace Master smiled and said, "Alright."

The next second, white jade-like flames erupted from the purple-robed old man's body, engulfing him completely.

With the old man's screams, in just a few seconds, this half-chaotic being was burned to nothingness, leaving not even ashes.

"The punishment is complete." The Jade Palace Master looked at Chen Yuan and the other man and smiled, "I know the purpose of Lord Yuan and Daoist Chen's visit. Please follow me."

After saying that, she took the lead and led the way, with Yuan and Chen Yuan following behind.

On the way, Chen Yuan secretly transmitted his voice: "Brother Yuan, it seems that this Jade Palace Master was prepared in advance?"

"This is the main function of the Dao of Escaping Oneness: powerful deductive ability."

Yuan explained, "Given enough information, this Great Dao can almost accurately predict the future. And since the Yuanhuang Continent is full of Jade Omen Discs, it's quite normal that it could calculate our destination."

"Using the Dao of Escape in battle can even help deduce the enemy's attack patterns, thus allowing you to anticipate their moves."

"So that's how it is. This innate origin is so powerful?" Chen Yuan was secretly shocked, yet also somewhat expectant. Just listening to the power of this Great Dao, it seemed to be a perfect match for the Primordial Brain.

One provides powerful computing power, and the other is responsible for calculating the future. Wouldn't that allow us to utilize the power of the Dao of Escape to its fullest extent?

Most importantly, the power of this Great Dao is something Chen Yuan lacks, and it can greatly make up for his shortcomings. Thinking of this, Chen Yuan secretly made up his mind that no matter what the cost, he must master this Great Dao.

As the two were talking, the Jade Palace Master led them into a purple palace. From the outside, the palace did not look very big, but once inside, it was a completely different world, containing a small universe spanning hundreds of billions of light-years.

The rules here are much more relaxed than outside, only slightly stricter than the Cosmic Sea. After Chen Yuan entered, his divine body subconsciously tended to expand, but he stopped it with his will.

Turning his head, he saw that the Jade Palace Master's divine body had expanded to a billion light-years, while Yuan on the other side had not been suppressed at all, and his divine body had also expanded to a billion light-years.

"Gu Yao's control is not as good as yours, and he doesn't have the perfect divine body that can be sized at will," Yuan said through voice. "To facilitate communication, you should also increase the size of your divine body."

"Okay." Chen Yuan nodded, and with a thought, he also increased his divine body to ten billion light-years.

"Master Chen has such strong self-control." Upon seeing this, the Jade Palace Master couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Chen Yuan shook his head: "It's all thanks to the foundation of a divine body."

"Is it the size at will?" the Jade Palace Master asked. Seeing Chen Yuan nod, she smiled helplessly: "I have long mastered this divine power, but since I cultivated my divine body to the level of semi-invincible Chaos Origin, it has become very difficult to control it."

"I see that Master Chen's divine body is no less powerful than mine. To be able to control such a powerful divine body at will, your mental will must be extremely strong."

O

Upon hearing this, Yuan couldn't help but laugh. Talking about this in front of the founder of the Great Way of the Mind?

However, Chen Yuan's spiritual path was not yet complete, and he did not want to discuss these matters further, so he simply said, "It's alright."

Seeing this, the Jade Palace Master wisely refrained from asking further questions and instead said, "Senior Yuan, Daoist Chen, we have arrived."

As they spoke, the three of them traveled for a short while in this small universe, their bodies spanning a billion light-years, and they had now almost reached the center of this universe.

With a gentle flick of her wrist, the Jade Palace Master seemed to erase some kind of concealing secret technique.

In an instant, purple light shot into the sky.

A massive purple beam of light, hundreds of millions of light-years in diameter and reaching the very edge of the universe, stood upright before the three of them.

From this purple pillar of light, Chen Yuan sensed a powerful aura of origin, and he was somewhat surprised: "This origin—it seems to be more than just the Ultimate Realm?"

"That's right." The Jade Palace Master nodded. "This is the One that has vanished. It was once called the Heavenly Evolution Great Dao. It began to grow on its own after the Primordial Ancient Realm was shattered, and it has now reached the half-primordial level."

The Primordial Great Dao of Half-Chaotic Origin!
