Entering the Chaos Region was like arriving in a unique world.
Within the Chaos, islands as vast as stars appeared, and countless rays of Divine Light coiled through the void.
And in the depths of the Chaos, there was an even larger island, nearly a hundred times the size of the others.
It was like a supercontinent floating in the Chaotic Void.
The other islands orbited this super-island like stars around a moon.
The island spewed Divine Light, its radiance illuminating the Chaotic Void.
"This... could this be their main base?!"
Merged with the Chaotic Void, Chen Yu’s heart shook as he gazed upon the thousands of star-like islands.
’My luck is off the charts!’
’If this is the main base of the Celestial Horn Race, then how many True Gods are here?!’
’There must be at least a dozen or more.’
The Celestial Horn Race was a powerful one. According to information from the Central Empire...
...they had at least a hundred True God Realm Venerables.
They ruled over an entire star region!
Although the Celestial Horn Race had no Great Emperor Level existence presiding over them, they definitely had no shortage of top-tier True God titans.
’Calm down, don’t be hasty.’ Taking a deep breath, Chen Yu forced himself to settle down.
He definitely couldn’t make a move before he had investigated the situation.
If he alerted the enemy, it would be disastrous.
The safest approach was to investigate the situation, understand all the details, and then strike.
Although he was confident in his own strength, he wasn’t blindly arrogant.
If this really was the main base of the Celestial Horn Race, there would certainly be no shortage of top-tier True God titans.
If he were besieged, even he might not be able to hold out.
...
Merged with the Chaotic Void, Chen Yu tailed the Starry Sky Tower Ship to the super-island at the center of the Chaos.
The Starry Sky Tower Ship hovered before the super-island, and four True God titans of the Celestial Horn Race disembarked.
"We’re the first to arrive. It seems the situations elsewhere were no small matter either."
The leading Celestial Horn Race True God spoke.
"They should be here soon. Let’s go onto the island and wait. They’ll probably arrive shortly."
Another Celestial Horn Race Venerable spoke, and the few of them stepped onto the island, heading for its center.
’There are other members of the Celestial Horn Race who haven’t arrived... Looks like I’ll have to wait.’
Overhearing the conversation between the Celestial Horn Race members, Chen Yu instantly made a decision.
Since other titans of the Celestial Horn Race were on their way, he would wait.
Perhaps a Hell Demon God would come as well.
Then, he could wipe them all out in one fell swoop!
’Every single True God is a trillion Source of Life!’
He wished for as many of them to come as possible.
With this in mind, Chen Yu silently slipped onto the super-island.
In the center of the island sat an incomparably massive royal palace.
It was like a giant city!
A royal palace!
The few Celestial Horn Race members entered this city, and Chen Yu followed closely behind.
But not too closely.
He maintained a certain distance.
Arriving in the depths of the city’s royal palace, the four Celestial Horn Race members entered the main hall.
Chen Yu hid himself within a rockery outside the main hall, waiting patiently.
From this position, he could see everything inside the main hall.
Since entering this Chaos Region, aside from these four, he hadn’t sensed the aura of any other Celestial Horn Race members.
The other Celestial Horn Race Venerables were still on their way.
The only thing he could do now was wait!
Cast a long line to catch a big fish!
Use the four Celestial Horn Race True Gods as bait to lure out the other True God titans of their race.
Patience, he had.
---
"Hm? They’re here!"
After waiting for about half a day, Chen Yu’s gaze sharpened, and he looked beyond the island.
A huge Starry Sky Tower Ship appeared, quickly coming to a stop just outside the island.
Three Celestial Horn Race True Gods disembarked from this Starry Sky Tower Ship.
They were also all at the cultivation level of a Tier Two True God.
Stepping onto the island, the three Celestial Horn Race True Gods headed straight for the main hall.
In an instant, they arrived before the main hall.
At that moment, the four Celestial Horn Race True Gods who had entered earlier walked out of the main hall.
Looking at the three who had just appeared, the leader of the first group spoke with a smile, "You’re finally here. You took your sweet time."
"We ran into some trouble on the way, so we’re a bit late. What about the others?"
One of the three Celestial Horn Race Venerables asked.
"We were the first to arrive, you’re the second. The other three teams should be here soon."
The leader of the group of four Celestial Horn Race Venerables spoke.
"Alright, let’s go inside and wait then." The three Celestial Horn Race Venerables nodded and stepped into the main hall.
’Three more teams.’
’I hope someone stronger shows up.’
Chen Yu’s eyes flickered, his heart filled with intense anticipation.
’Three or four Venerables per team... all together, that’s more than a dozen, maybe even twenty.’
’A single Tier Two True God can yield over two trillion Source of Life.’
’Added up, that’s a huge amount.’
However, he was hoping for a bigger catch.
’A Tier Six or Tier Seven True God Venerable would be best.’
A Tier Five True God could provide ten trillion Source of Life; a Tier Six or Tier Seven would be even more incredible.
He watched the seven Celestial Horn Race Venerables enter the main hall.
Chen Yu continued to wait patiently.
「A day passed.」
The subsequent three teams arrived one after another.
In total, there were five teams of True Gods, a full nineteen True God titans.
The vast majority were Tier Two True Gods, with some Tier One True Gods. The strongest was a Tier Three True God in the final team.
’Nineteen... not a small number indeed.’
Seeing the last team arrive, Chen Yu’s heart burned with excitement.
In his eyes, this was a massive amount of Source of Life!
This much Source of Life could allow his divine clone to advance again.
The nineteen Celestial Horn Race True God Venerables gathered in the central hall, seating themselves on golden chairs.
But at the head of the hall, there were still two empty golden thrones!
’Could there be two big shots who haven’t arrived yet?’
Chen Yu narrowed his eyes, suppressing the excitement in his heart.
’Two empty seats.’
’And at the head of the hall, no less. It’s obvious that even more powerful True God Venerables are coming.’
’No rush. I’ll wait for them to arrive and then wipe them all out at once!’ Calming his mind, Chen Yu waited patiently while eavesdropping on the situation in the hall.
From the conversations among these Celestial Horn Race True God Venerables, he learned something.
Just as he had guessed, there were indeed two more significant figures who hadn’t arrived.
One was a Venerable of the Celestial Horn Race, and the other was a Venerable of the Nether Race.
’A Hell Demon God of the Nether Race... It seems so many Venerables gathering together must be to discuss some major plan!’
Chen Yu’s heart tightened.
But he wasn’t the least bit afraid. On the contrary...
He was quite excited!
The more that came, the better!
The more that came, the more he could kill!
And the more Source of Life he would obtain.
He might even be able to follow the trail, find more information about the Nether Race, and locate their nest.
At that time, it would be another massive wave of Source of Life.
’A huge profit!’
’An explosive growth in strength!’
---
Time passed. A day later, two figures appeared outside the island.
They soon descended before the main hall.
In the shadows, Chen Yu became fully alert!
His gaze fell upon these two True God Venerables.
One was a Venerable of the Celestial Horn Race, and the other was an existence suffused with the aura of Hell—a Hell Demon God of the Nether Race!
He wore a black robe!
A gloomy light coiled around him!
He was ten feet tall, with a burly physique that brimmed with a sense of power.
’Two Tier Five True Gods... not bad. That’s at least twenty trillion Source of Life.’
Chen Yu watched the two titan Venerables appear. Although he was a little disappointed, having two Tier Five True Gods show up wasn’t bad at all.
’I’ll wait a bit more, listen to their plan.’ Chen Yu resisted the urge to strike and forced himself to remain calm.
At this moment, the nineteen Celestial Horn Race Venerables also came out of the main hall. Seeing the two Tier Five True God Venerables, they bowed in unison.
"Greetings, Ninth Elder. Greetings, Netherworld King Elder."
Their voices rang out in unison. The Celestial Horn Race’s Ninth Elder and the Nether Race’s Netherworld King Elder nodded.
"Friend Nether, let’s go inside to talk in detail!" the Ninth Elder said with a smile.
The Netherworld King Elder nodded, but just as he was about to step into the hall, he suddenly stopped, glanced around, and frowned slightly.
’Did this guy discover me?’ Chen Yu’s heart clenched.
’If he found me, I’ll have to strike early.’
’Everything is still within my control.’
’One against twenty-one, the advantage is mine!’
"Friend Nether, what is it?" the Ninth Elder asked, seeing his hesitation.
The Netherworld King Elder shook his head. "It’s nothing. I just suddenly have a bad feeling."
"A bad feeling?" The Ninth Elder was stunned, then smiled. "Friend Nether, you’re overthinking things. This is my Celestial Horn Race’s stronghold. What is there to fear? It’s covered by my clan’s Array. We can detect any situation at a moment’s notice."
The Netherworld King Elder nodded. "I must be overthinking it. Let’s go."
With that, the Netherworld King Elder was the first to step into the main hall, with the Ninth Elder close behind. The rest of the Celestial Horn Race Venerables also entered the hall.
Twenty-one True God Venerables gathered together, a grand event by any measure.
Chen Yu remained hidden outside, motionless.
As soon as he heard the plan, he could make his move.
...
Inside the main hall, the Netherworld King Elder and the Ninth Elder sat upon the golden thrones at the head of the room, while the other Celestial Horn Race Venerables took their seats to the left and right.
"Brother Netherworld King, does your side have any plans?" the Ninth Elder asked first.
The Netherworld King Elder pondered for a moment before saying, "Currently, Hell does not intend to act rashly. The Outer Domain conference is drawing closer, and there are many experts around. The danger of making a move has greatly increased."
"The higher-ups’ intention is to remain silent for now," the Netherworld King Elder said.
"Silent... we were thinking the same. We’ve lost quite a bit of strength recently," the Ninth Elder nodded in agreement.
"By the way, there’s a message from the higher-ups. They want you to pay attention to a certain Human Race Venerable," the Netherworld King Elder said.
Hm?
A Human Race Venerable?!
The Ninth Elder was startled. He looked at the Netherworld King Elder and said, "Brother Netherworld King, you don’t mean you want us to pay attention to the Central Emperor, do you?"
"How could that be? It’s not the Central Emperor, but a Human Race Venerable named Chen Yu."
The Netherworld King Elder said.
’This has something to do with me?!’
Outside, the eavesdropping Chen Yu was stunned.
’Well now, the gossip turned out to be about me.’
’The top existences of the Nether Race have already noticed me?’
’If that’s the case, things could get a little dangerous.’
’But danger is also filled with excitement!’
He had walked this path to the present, and danger had always been with him.
From beasts to the Alien Races, and now, even a super-clan from Hell had its eyes on him.
But Chen Yu wasn’t afraid.
His strength was currently increasing at a rapid pace!
Even if he had to face a Tier Nine True God, he was confident he could survive, even if he couldn’t win.
Unless an existence on the level of a Great Emperor came for him!
