NOVGO.NET Chapter 318: Arrival on the Chaos Continent!
Su Yuan surveyed the entire situation across the Star River God Realm Sea. Whether it was Star Dust and his team’s successful ambush or Nangong Xianweng and the others’ failed demise, everything was clearly visible to his eyes.
He didn’t particularly care about any of it.
He faintly detected that a certain gaze had already projected itself toward this place.
That opponent had already taken notice of here.
Since that was the case, he could secretly attend to some other matters.
As his thoughts shifted.
Su Yuan’s body traversed through countless worlds, crossed endless chaos, and arrived above the Chaos Continent.
Outside a certain large tribal settlement.
Within the dense forest, Su Yuan’s figure appeared out of thin air.
The moment he appeared, the powerful pressure of rule suppression made his body sway, but he steadied himself with a slight vibration and maintained his flying state.
“What terrifying pressure from the Great Dao’s Will!”
Su Yuan lifted his head, sensing an incredible manifestation of the Great Dao’s Will!
Even with the assistance of the [Tear of Eternity], which allowed him to rival Wuji Realm existences, he absolutely dared not provoke the Chaos Continent’s Great Dao’s Will.
Fortunately, his arrival this time hadn’t immediately attracted that person’s attention.
Su Yuan smiled slightly and walked toward the direction of the large tribal settlement ahead.
He had only walked for a brief moment.
A giant crocodile brimming with primitive aura suddenly emerged from a nearby stream, lunging to bite Su Yuan.
Su Yuan’s expression remained calm as he prepared to raise his hand and strike it down.
Suddenly, a black arrow light shot rapidly from the distance.
Su Yuan paused momentarily and took no action.
The black arrow light arrived belatedly yet struck first, hitting the giant crocodile ahead of anything else.
The terrifying giant crocodile spanning three hundred eighty li actually collapsed under the attack of that less-than-one-meter-long arrow light.
A ten-li-long wound opened on its body surface, and rule power immediately began destroying the flesh around the injury.
The giant crocodile erupted in fury, glaring fiercely toward the depths of the dense forest.
A woman of peerless elegance and refined temperament emerged from the dense forest, raising her ice-blue longbow to fire several consecutive arrows.
The arrow lights were dark and mysterious, tinged with faint ice-blue hues, appearing extraordinarily brilliant.
The arrow attacks were extremely fast—by the time you saw the arrows, they had already struck their target!
The giant crocodile was hit by several arrows consecutively, all landing in the same spot, forcing it to retreat several steps (nine thousand li away).
The woman shouted toward Su Yuan, “Quick, get away!”
After speaking, the woman drifted away gracefully like a celestial goddess.
Su Yuan watched as the woman departed into the distance but didn’t follow her as she had expected.
The woman turned back to look at Su Yuan, who remained unmoved, her eyes flickering slightly before saying nothing and instantly vanishing into the distance.
Su Yuan waited in place for one breath’s time.
The giant crocodile immediately strode over, viciously swinging its tail toward Su Yuan.
A Zhuyuan Shield materialized out of thin air before Su Yuan!
The massive tail struck the Zhuyuan Shield but couldn’t inflict the slightest damage upon it.
On the contrary, after the Zhuyuan Shield completely absorbed the giant crocodile’s attack, it rebounded everything back toward the creature.
A terrifying rebound force of Zhuyuan power surged into the giant crocodile’s body.
The giant crocodile’s True Spirit was directly shattered by this counter-shock force!
The giant crocodile’s eyes glazed over as its soul lost all color.
“Mixed Yuan peak-level combat power, yet intelligence like a wild beast—is this a specialty product of the Chaos Continent?” Su Yuan pondered silently.
While deep in thought.
The giant crocodile before him suddenly opened its eyes again.
Its eyes now displayed signs of intelligence.
Su Yuan assessed the strength of this Mental Avatar and was surprised to discover that this body’s power had diminished to only the early Mixed Yuan Great Luo stage.
“How strange!”
Su Yuan examined the giant crocodile’s body with confusion, confirming that its physical materials were indeed at the Mixed Yuan Great Luo peak level.
Upon careful sensing, he discovered that a special crystal inside its body was no longer connected to the giant crocodile’s form.
Su Yuan extracted that multicolored crystalline core.
Understanding flashed through his eyes.
[Chaos Core]: The core through which Chaos Beasts communicate with Wuji Mountain. Most of a Chaos Beast’s power originates from Wuji Mountain. Once they perish, they lose their connection with Wuji Mountain.
Although this Chaos Core could no longer connect with Wuji Mountain, it served as excellent material for artifact forging and pill refining. Simply absorbing the chaos essence within it provided tremendous benefits for power enhancement. Such resources were almost nonexistent in the God Realm Sea, yet were relatively common within the Chaos Continent.
At that moment, he sensed the woman returning after her departure.
The giant crocodile that had just regained mobility collapsed once again, becoming a fresh corpse!
The woman rushed back and saw the scene of the giant crocodile’s demise. Surprise flashed in her eyes as she looked at Su Yuan with caution.
“Senior, are you at the Tai Chi Realm?” the woman asked.
Su Yuan nodded, “Approximately!”
The woman said, “I am a member of Gaoyu Tribe, named Xiao Xiang. Does Senior have tribal affiliation? Our Gaoyu Tribe is a large settlement with seven Wuji Realm guardians, possessing extremely strong survival capabilities. If Senior is willing, you can join our tribe!”
Su Yuan noticed a special rule mark on the back of the woman’s hand. When he saw that mark, he naturally understood the meaning of “Gaoyu Tribe.”
Since his own hand bore no such mark, this was why the woman had invited him.
Su Yuan asked, “You’re inviting me to join your tribe just like that?”
Xiao Xiang smiled, “It seems Senior has just arrived from the God Realm Sea, right? With seven Wuji Realm experts guarding the tribe, those at Tai Chi Realm can’t possibly cause any trouble. If Wuji Realm experts come, the tribe would only welcome them. Our greatest enemies are the Chaos Beasts, not intelligent races.”
Su Yuan glanced at the giant crocodile’s corpse, somewhat surprised. Would a major power with seven Wuji Realm experts still consider Chaos Beasts as enemies?
“How should I address you, Senior?” Xiao Xiang asked.
“Star Dust!” Su Yuan smiled faintly.
“Senior Star Dust, please follow me. Gaoyu Tribe is just ahead, only three light-years away!”
“Then let’s go take a look!” Su Yuan nodded.
The two moved swiftly through the dense forest.
Each giant tree stood thousands of li tall, with branches covering extremely wide areas, spaced far apart from each other, even forming faint Rule Domains that significantly affected living beings’ perception.
Xiao Xiang chatted amiably, “Senior Star Dust, originally there shouldn’t have been Mixed Yuan peak-level Chaos Beasts so close to the tribe, but now they’ve appeared. There might be another beast tide coming!”
Su Yuan expressed surprise, “Even here in the Chaos Continent, there are things like beast tides!”
Xiao Xiang also smiled, “It is indeed quite amusing. Back in the God Realm Sea, I was the Dominator of a sacred land, but after coming here, I’m just an ordinary tribe member. Senior has reached the Tai Chi Realm and can become a core force of the tribe, leading hunting teams. That’s much better than us ordinary members!”
Hearing this, Su Yuan asked, “Why does Gaoyu Tribe call itself a tribe? Wouldn’t calling it a kingdom be better?”
Xiao Xiang shook her head, “Naturally because the population is too sparse. Only those who have reached Mixed Yuan Great Luo or above qualify to survive on the Chaos Continent. Actually reaching Mixed Yuan Great Luo is extremely difficult. Our tribe’s population is only about two hundred thousand. With such small numbers, it could at most be called a city, but calling it a tribe fosters more cohesion!”
