Electrons orbited the atomic nucleus just as planets revolved around a star, and the individual atoms were held together by gravity, arranged much like the myriad stars scattered across the cosmos... This gave Ye Jingyu a sudden realization: was the structure of the human body also analogous to the universe itself?

At this moment, he watched the Destiny Soul shatter, transforming into countless ash-gray energies—the most potent Chaos Force in existence. These energies aggressively surged into his body, destroying his cells, dismantling the very atoms and molecules that composed those cells.

He could even witness entire atomic nuclei fracturing apart... It was like the destruction of stars; the demise of a single star releases immense energy, and similarly, powerful energies erupted between these atoms, constantly filling the space, only to be assimilated by the Chaos Force.

Gradually, new atomic nuclei began to form from the fragmented old ones, but the structure of these new nuclei had undergone a world-altering transformation. If the previous atomic nuclei were mere stones, the current ones were pieces of peerless jade, the most exquisite quality imaginable.

This was a fundamental change. The Chaos Body, a legendary physique said to be capable of containing all things in heaven and earth, was far superior to any Innate Spirit Body.

Such a physique had virtually never appeared from ancient times to the present; if one had existed, it was only a figure confined to mythology. Once this physical refinement was complete, no matter what cultivation technique Ye Jingyu practiced in the future, his progress would be several, even several hundred or several thousand times faster than others.

The Chaos Body contained all things; it could absorb any type of energy, even negative energies like Death Qi, Corpse Qi, or Netherworld Qi. Of course, Ye Jingyu was unaware of the true might of the Chaos Body at this moment; he simply watched quietly, observing the continuous shattering and rebirth of the atomic nuclei, as if witnessing the destruction and renewal of the entire universe...

All of this was happening within him. Neither Nine Phoenix nor Ghost-Sees-Sorrow noticed any of this; with their current level of divine sense, it was impossible for them to detect it.

The ring on Ye Jingyu's neck also emitted a faint, soft glow at this time, but since it was broad daylight and Nine Phoenix's attention was entirely fixed on him, she naturally missed it. Meanwhile, in another dimension, there was an endless ocean.

In the middle of this sea lay a massive island, verdant with lush trees, vibrant flora, and teeming with birds and beasts—an image of a celestial paradise. At the heart of this forest stood an enormous palace, fronted by a vast plaza featuring fountains, rockeries, statues, and a hundred blossoms.

This plaza was entirely man-made, yet it merged flawlessly with the primeval aura of the surrounding forest; everything appeared perfectly harmonious. However, the mahjong table set up in the center of the plaza completely shattered this tranquility...

"Self-drawn, twenty-thousand, all one suit!" At this point, a handsome, wicked-looking man with long, flowing hair, dressed in a black jacket and seated in the southwest, suddenly called out sharply. If Ye Jingyu were present, he would instantly recognize this man as the one who had once claimed to be his ancestor and passed down the Ba Yuan Jue.

However, this was his true form, not merely a sliver of True Spirit. "Ugh, I’m out, I’m out!

You’ve won eighteen hands straight, how can we even play anymore!" The man seated opposite him, wearing gold-rimmed spectacles, immediately pushed his hand forward in frustration and complained. The other two seats were occupied by a man with striking purple hair and an exceptionally cold demeanor, and another man whose handsome features exuded an aristocratic aura—the kind of appearance that would instantly charm any girl.

Seeing the wicked man win yet again, they both shook their heads, having lost all desire to continue the game. "Heh heh..." The wicked man was about to retort when his expression suddenly shifted slightly.

"Body Nurturing Chapter perfected? That brat actually managed to master the Body Nurturing Chapter so quickly and achieve the Chaos Body.

He truly is worthy of my Ye family, hahaha..." "The Chaos Body. You never managed to complete it back then either!" Hearing the man's laughter, the purple-haired man seated to his left remarked.

"Indeed. Although I created this technique by condensing numerous ancient cultivation methods, even after cultivating for so long, I could barely bring myself to shatter my own divine soul for physical refinement.

I never expected that brat to possess such courage, to actually shatter his own soul. Wasn't he afraid of complete soul dissipation?" The man spoke calmly, though a hint of delight flickered in his eyes.

"Seriously? Do you have any shame?

Creating a mutated technique yourself and then making your descendant practice it—I really don't know what you were thinking!" The man with the gold-rimmed glasses rolled his eyes and cursed in dissatisfaction. "Breaking before creating—that is the law of the universe, and it is the law of the Chaos Body.

Didn't that great deity back in the day also break and then create, establishing the entire world? It's just that I don't know why he left behind that Void-Piercing Ring, wanting me to do something for him.

Too bad I have no interest in those matters; indulging in pleasure is the proper way. I'll let Jingyu handle those grand affairs.

Although it's many years late, with his current Chaos Body—even if it's not yet a complete Chaos Body—his future achievements will certainly surpass mine!" The man chuckled faintly, radiating an air of utter relaxation and satisfaction. "..." This time, not only did the gold-rimmed man give him the middle finger, but the other two men also simultaneously extended their middle fingers toward him.

Forcing his own destined mission onto his descendant—this man was simply too shameless... However, upon contemplating the reappearance of the legendary Chaos Body, their eyes also shone with yearning.

They all longed to see what pinnacle the second person possessing the Chaos Body would ultimately reach... If Ye Jingyu could hear their conversation now, his jaw would surely drop in astonishment.

The Chaos Body, the physique possessed by that legendary great deity—what a terrifying physical form that must have been, and what an unimaginably powerful existence! It could be said that, up to this very moment, Ye Jingyu's path of cultivation had only just begun.

Sadly, he remained ignorant of all this, his consciousness still observing the changes within his body as a detached bystander. The atomic nuclei continued to shatter and then regroup, everything happening with perfect natural smoothness...

Breaking before creating...
