At this moment, Lu Yuan was situated at the foot of Mount Liver. The battle between the Son of Immortality and the Son of Dharma was taking place atop the peak, and it had dragged on, as the two were perfectly matched in strength.
Meanwhile, Lu Yuan was gathering the Chaos Liver Crystal at the foot of the mountain. Having secured the Chaos Liver Crystal, Lu Yuan left without a word, soaring away on his sword.
Lu Yuan’s departure was swift. Being somewhat of a notable figure now, with considerable fame, his arrival and immediate exit naturally sparked considerable discussion among the onlookers nearby.
“Hey, isn't that Lu Yuan?” “Why did he leave as soon as he got here?” “Nonsense. The Son of Immortality and the Son of Dharma are currently engaged in a duel.
Both of them possess formidable power, towering above everyone else. Although Lu Yuan is the Eighth Son of Fortune, he is ultimately not on par with the Son of Immortality and the Son of Dharma.” “That’s true.
Looking at it that way, his leaving is quite normal.” 。。。。。。 Lu Yuan paid no mind to the chatter. His next destination was the Sea of Intestines.
Finally reaching the Sea of Intestines, Lu Yuan observed a fierce struggle underway within it, involving figures like Tong Yun Chou of the Bronze Civilization, Feng Xing Xing of the Wind Civilization, and many others locked in unending combat. Lu Yuan did not involve himself in the fight, instead plunging directly into the Sea of Intestines.
The seawater here was imbued with an incredibly dense spiritual energy; cultivating here would lead to rapid advancement. It was a pity he couldn't linger long.
He finally reached the seabed. The seabed was exceedingly solid, allowing no further descent.
This must be the location of the Chaos Intestine Crystal. Lu Yuan drew his Yangwu Sword and struck—it didn't budge in the slightest.
Confirming this, he then produced his strange weapon and began striking relentlessly. After over two thousand blows, he finally obtained the Chaos Intestine Crystal, gathering another essential item, bringing him one step closer to success.
Having acquired the Chaos Intestine Crystal, Lu Yuan did not pause, departing immediately. “Huh, Lu Yuan came and left again?” “Does this Eighth Son of Fortune lack even the courage to fight?” “I heard that at Mount Kidney, Lu Yuan encountered the half-step Civilization Realm expert from the Immortal Ancient Civilization, the Great Emperor of Jade, and left immediately without daring to engage.
At Mount Liver, seeing the clash between the Son of Immortality and the Son of Dharma, he didn't dare step in either, just leaving directly. And now?
Seeing the fight between Tong Yun Chou, Feng Xing Xing, and the others at the half-step Civilization Realm, he didn't dare fight either, fleeing outright.” Someone seemed exceptionally well-informed, knowing of these three incidents: “This Eighth Son of Fortune, Lu Yuan, is finished. After encountering the Desolate Halberd of the Son of Desolation, he was utterly ruined.” “Lu Yuan, the Eighth Son of Fortune, has become nothing more than a coward who only dares to flee and never engage.” The crowd continued their discussions, but not for long, as the true final battle of the Sea of Intestines was about to commence.
Lu Yuan remained uninvolved, his next destination being the Lungs. 。。。。。。 The Lungs were a tree.
An unbelievably massive tree, soaring a thousand zhang high. Simultaneously, countless bubbles of various kinds constantly rained down from this tree, displaying a myriad of iridescent colors.
These bubbles might contain all sorts of things; the bubbles could be burst, yet the Tree of Lungs itself was unbreakable, eternally indestructible, with his Eternal Immortality Art still exerting its power. Upon reaching the Tree of Lungs, Lu Yuan didn't even spare a glance for who might be fighting.
He seized the Chaos Lung Crystal. There was truly nothing worth watching; after all, those currently able to claim a territory and vie for the fragments of the Chaos Civilization were all at the half-step Civilization Realm.
His current strength truly couldn't match them. There was nothing worth seeing, so he came quickly and left quickly.
At the same time, Lu Yuan felt a sense of exhilaration. Yes, he had now collected the Chaos Lung Crystal; only the final Chaos Foot Crystal remained.
Thinking of the imminent breakthrough to the tenth layer of the World Realm, Lu Yuan truly felt a surge of delight. The next location: the Feet.
。。。。。。 Lu Yuan flew straight ahead, finally arriving at the entrance to the Feet. If the Liver was a mountain, the Gallbladder was a mountain, the Stomach a lake, the Arms a sea, the Lungs a tree, then the Feet were an abyss.
The Abyss of the Feet. Lu Yuan descended continuously.
After flying for a very, very long time, he still hadn't seen the bottom of the abyss. For his flying speed, such a duration without sighting the floor meant this Abyss of the Feet truly lived up to its name.
There weren't many people in this Abyss of the Feet; the fragment of the Foot Chaos Civilization had already been taken by the Son of Desolation earlier. Only those with weaker cultivation remained here.
Lu Yuan descended for a long time before finally landing at the bottom of the Abyss of the Feet. His feet lightly touched the ground.
This Abyss of the Feet was incredibly deep, so much so that there was no one else in it besides him. Lu Yuan welcomed the rare quiet, retrieving the strange weapon and striking repeatedly—dang, dang, dang, dang—finally shattering a tiny piece.
It was an infinitesimally small fragment, which Lu Yuan cherished and treasured deeply, tucking this final small piece away securely. This tiny piece was extraordinarily precious.
The Chaos Foot Crystal was obtained. Now, he had collected all ten Chaos Crystals required to break through to the tenth layer of the World Realm: the Chaos Crystal, Chaos Tongue Crystal, Chaos Brain Crystal, Chaos Foot Crystal, Chaos Stomach Crystal, Chaos Liver Crystal, Chaos Gallbladder Crystal, Chaos Spleen Crystal, Chaos Lung Crystal, and Chaos Kidney Crystal.
He had finally gathered them all, and he could now strive for the Great Perfection of the tenth layer of the World Realm. Lu Yuan’s consciousness immersed itself in the perfection of these Ten Chaos Crystals.
Although the life force within the crystals themselves had long since dissipated, becoming completely inert, their underlying structures remained. As long as his body could transform to match these structures, he could reach the Great Perfection of the tenth layer of the World Realm.
No, something was wrong. What was missing?
It felt as though something was lacking, preventing him from achieving the tenth layer of the World Realm even by following this blueprint. What was he missing?
Wait, the Heart! In a living being, the most vital part is the heart.
And he was missing the Chaos Heart Crystal. How could he succeed in breaking through to the World Realm tenth layer?
This meant he had to head to the Heart. The location of the Heart was not like the others; it contained the most fragments of the Chaos Civilization and was the site of the final battlefield.
Any figure who had previously appeared, as long as they hadn't used Chaos Bubbles to exit the Civilization Sanctuary, would basically have their masters converging at the Heart. That was the true pinnacle, the ultimate nexus.
Therefore, his next destination had to be the Heart. The ten thousand sources must return to one flow; regardless of where the others fought, they would all have to go to the Heart.
Just as Lu Yuan was about to move his nose, he suddenly sensed a breeze. No, how could there be wind?
In other locations, the presence of wind would be unremarkable; no wind would be truly bizarre. But this was not just any place; this was the Abyss of the Feet, which was, simply put, one foot of the Chaos Civilization Beast.
How long would one of its feet be? A hundred million li would hardly be an exaggeration.
And descending this vertically, completely sealed, where would the wind come from? Even if there were wind above, it couldn't possibly reach the bottom.
The fact that he was utterly alone in the Abyss of the Feet made it even stranger—where was the wind coming from? There shouldn't be wind here.
Lu Yuan expanded his divine sense fully, and the expansion quickly revealed the source of the wind. The source was a small hole not far beneath his feet.
Huh, wasn't this the spot he had just broken open with his strange weapon? How could the wind originate from here?
Lu Yuan was deeply stunned and immediately moved closer, focusing all his attention on observing the wind here. If there was wind, its source must be extraordinary.
The wind emanated faintly from that breached spot. Lu Yuan even detected that a strange object seemed to be escaping from there—a gas that actively inhaled the wind.
Lu Yuan reached out into the void and actually managed to grasp a wind-sucking gaseous entity, within which an infinite amount of wind was contained. What was this?
Lu Yuan wondered inwardly. In truth, this was rather simple.
The Chaos Civilization Beast was a beast, the pinnacle of the Beast Path. The Lords of Civilization of the beast race were inherently heavier than beings of other races.
When the Chaos Civilization Beast mastered the Eternal Immortality Art, it discovered its body had become even heavier. Though it was eternally immortal, its body became uncontrollably ponderous.
While its speed surpassed that of a Vice-Lord of Civilization, it was not as fast as a Lord of Civilization. Among the Lords of Civilization, the original body of the Chaos Civilization Beast was usually the most vast and boundless, far exceeding the others.
Under such circumstances, the Chaos Civilization Beast deliberately went to the extreme limit of the Heaven and Earth where it resided and captured the Epoch Anomaly from that extreme—the Wind-Sucking Shadowless Worm. This type of worm was incredibly powerful and rare; even an ordinary Vice-Lord of Civilization would find it difficult to capture.
But facing the Chaos Civilization Beast, it was no match and was forcefully trapped and refined to death, transforming into an entity specialized in absorbing wind. The Chaos Civilization Beast used the remains of the Wind-Sucking Shadowless Worm to draw in countless gusts of wind beneath its feet.
Nearly infinite wind was funneled into the Beast’s foot. At that time, this act swept away the wind within a radius of a hundred million li, drawing protests from numerous living beings.
However, the Chaos Civilization Beast ignored these protests. From then on, its speed increased considerably, no longer inferior to that of an average Lord of Civilization, perhaps even slightly superior.
Later, however, the Chaos Civilization Beast died. To this day, Lu Yuan had sliced open a part of its foot with his strange weapon, causing the internal wind to dissipate.
Simultaneously, the remains of one Wind-Sucking Shadowless Worm also escaped. This worm was formless and invisible, but Lu Yuan captured the creature’s remains by intuition.
There really was a lot of wind inside this worm; it could inhale wind. Wait, if it could inhale wind, it meant it could help him perfect the Dragon of Swallowing Wind.
Of his seven Devouring Dragons, only the Dragon of Swallowing Wind remained missing. (The second update is delivered.
Today was supposed to be three updates, but there are some elements that require more thought, so there are only two today. I will see if I can make up for it tomorrow.
I had originally planned to guarantee the makeup, but the weather forecast predicts heavy thunderstorms tomorrow, so I won't make grand promises. My apologies.)
