202: Great Resurrection

Time flowed silently as Lin Yuan refined the primal beginning origin crystals. Once the six wings had consumed a full 340 billion primal beginning origin crystals, the chaotic divine light atop them gradually withdrew. Three pairs of even larger, more majestic wings, flowing with materialized chaotic divine radiance like clouds hanging from the heavens, quietly folded behind Lin Yuan's back.

At the edges of the wings, newly born dao patterns traced profound trajectories. Information regarding a brand-new innate Divine Ability, one that controlled spatial folding and energy annihilation, flooded into Lin Yuan's mind—Great Resurrection Art: Can consume life energy to resurrect living beings whose total combat power does not exceed one's own, limited to one hundred people per day!

Lin Yuan felt the vast, majestic power surging within his body, far exceeding what he had before. His gaze swept over the rejuvenated Heavenly Pole Sword and Heavenly Evolution Robe, finally landing on that bottomless, viscous darkness. There, it seemed even more ancient and fundamental Chaos fluctuations were faintly calling out.

“Chaos Great Dao, it's time to take another step forward.” He whispered to himself. That chaos origin crystal reappeared in his palm, slowly rotating under the reflection of the wings' divine radiance.

At the bottom of the Primordial Chaos Realm's abyss, the darkness as viscous as ink felt like the congealed fetal blood of the Universe. Lin Yuan stood suspended within it. Behind him, the three pairs of chaos wings, promoted to the Third Tier, hung like curtains of chaotic divine gold as they slowly folded.

Every feather flowed with materialized green lotus divine runes, and the newly born dao patterns on the edges traced profound trajectories of spatial annihilation—the Divine Ability information of the 【Great Resurrection Art】 was branded into his Soul. The majestic power of 2.4 billion feathers surged between the wings; every slight vibration caused the surrounding viscous Chaos to silently collapse and reorganize.

He opened his palm, and that Origin crystal, which contained all colors returning to Chaos, floated quietly. Under the reflection of the wings' divine radiance, its interior seemed to hold miniatures of countless stars being born and dying, and the rotation of the Great Dao.

Further down the abyss, that ancient, pure call—seemingly from before the opening of Chaos—became clearer and more urgent. It carried a rhythm bordering on tragic, penetrating through layers of darkness to reach deep into the swaying phantom image of the chaos green lotus within Lin Yuan's Sea of Consciousness.

“Chaos Great Dao... today, I shall take another step!” Chaotic Qi swirled in Lin Yuan's eyes like a galactic vortex, his resolve as firm as iron. He no longer hesitated, sinking his consciousness into the Chaos Origin Scripture. The chaos green lotus seed burst forth with boundless clear light to protect his Sea of Consciousness. Majestic Chaos Origin force, mixed with the initial mastery of the Great Dao of Devouring's true intent, transformed into an invisible carving knife and stabbed fiercely into the chaos origin crystal in his palm!

“Refine!”

BOOM—!!!

The impact this time far exceeded the previous ones! The Origin crystal seemed thoroughly enraged. The Chaos Great Dao fragments and the majestic power of creation and destruction within were no longer released gently; instead, they transformed into billions of chaotic blades, exploding instantly! Lin Yuan's body was like something thrown into the core of a universal-level Chaos storm!

“Argh—!”

Intense pain! Tearing! Reorganization! Annihilation! Rebirth!

The chaos battle armor on Lin Yuan's body, formed by his Manifested War Spirit, let out a piercing wail. It was instantly covered in spiderweb-like cracks, only to be painfully repaired under the nourishment of dense Chaos Origin force, repeating in a continuous cycle.

His bones groaned under the unbearable weight, as if they would disintegrate into the most primitive particles at any moment. His blood boiled and evaporated, only to be reborn under the majestic power of the Life Origin Law. Within the strands of golden divine blood, an ancient dao rhyme from the dawn of Chaos began to appear.

Even more terrifying was the impact on the Soul level. Countless grand fragments of scenes—the opening of Chaos, the evolution of stars, the birth and death of all things—rushed in like a burst dam, crazily battering and tearing at his consciousness, attempting to assimilate and decompose him, returning him to the Origin point before all things were born!

“Chaos... is not disorder... it is the mother of all Daos... embracing all... evolving all... destruction is also the beginning of Rebirth...” Lin Yuan's Soul let out a silent roar amidst the storm of intense pain, his will like a rock holding the helm steady in a raging sea.

The runes of the Chaos Origin Scripture acted as a stabilizing needle, crazily deducing and organizing this violent torrent. The roots of the phantom image of the chaos green lotus surged, digging deep into this Chaos storm. The evolution speed of the miniature Universe atop the lotus pedestal reached its limit; countless stars were born and extinguished, and its core seemed to greedily absorb the power of the Origin crystal, becoming more real and stable.

He saw it! More clearly than before!

He saw how a tiny, imperceptible “fluctuation” was born from absolute “nothingness,” like the heartbeat of a sleeping giant god!

He saw how that “fluctuation” triggered the Big Bang of the chaos singularity, and an endless torrent of primitive dao patterns gushed out, weaving into the warp and weft of the Universe!

He saw the initial separation of the clear and the turbid, the rotation of Yin and Yang, and the first appearance of the Five Elements. Space was forced open like a fold, and the river of time flowed with its first ripple from eternal stillness... He saw how a weak spark of life was nurtured within the hurricane of destruction; he saw how violent Chaotic Lightning struck, catalyzing strange crystal clusters containing the power of creation within the scorched earth... This was the essence of Chaos's evolution! It was the visualized manifestation of the “Dao”!

Time lost its scale amidst the extreme pain and enlightenment.

When that violent chaotic torrent finally began to settle, merging into Lin Yuan's every cell and every strand of Divine Soul, a dao chime—far grander and more distant than before—rang out from the deepest part of his Soul, as if the entire first layer of the Primordial Chaos Realm's edge was resonating with it!

BZZT—!!!

The cracks on Lin Yuan's body instantly closed. The dao patterns on the chaos battle armor became deeper and more ancient, faintly resonating with the green lotus divine runes on his wings. The three pairs of chaos wings behind him withdrew their divine light; their size did not explode, but every feather seemed to contain a more stable, rapidly evolving miniature Chaos world. His control over space and Chaos energy soared once again!

The combat power bonus provided by the wings quietly jumped from 3.6 billion feathers to 3.7 billion feathers, stabilizing at the Third Tier Middle Stage! More importantly, a transformation stemming from the life Origin was occurring—he felt his Physical Body and Soul being remodeled and assimilated by the Chaos Great Dao at a deeper level, evolving toward a life form closer to the Chaos Origin! On the Data Panel, the words 【Chaos Body (Gestation: 1%)】 quietly emerged!

The brilliance flowing on the blade of the dao slaying wisdom sword at his brow became more concentrated, adding a true intent of “Insight” that pierced through falsehood and pointed directly at the laws of how all things operate. Wherever the sword tip pointed, the minute structures of space and the flow trajectories of energy were clearly visible.

【Chaos Great Dao Comprehension: 1% → 3% (300 Million Feather combat power bonus)】

A 3% comprehension of the Chaos Great Dao was equivalent to the power of three perfected basic Daos! The mysteries it contained far exceeded a mere stacking of strength!

“Still not enough!” Lin Yuan suddenly opened his eyes. The Chaotic Qi in his eyes was like the first light of creation, piercing through the viscous darkness of the abyss! He clearly felt that the majestic power contained within the chaos origin crystal in his palm had only been consumed by a fraction!
