Buzzing!
At this moment, a powerful path emerged from Qin Chen, which was the path of the sword. Endless sword energy crisscrossed, and with a loud roar, it struck the barrier of the path in front of him.
He heard a violent rumble as the barrier trembled constantly and was torn apart, creating a gap that Qin Chen could pass through.
Opening the way ahead made the oppressive aura surrounding Qin Chen weaken, allowing him to continue moving forward.
“The path of the sword, it seems this is one of your strongest paths,” said the Primordial Ancestral Dragon.
Qin Chen did not respond. The path of the sword was indeed one of his top-tier paths, but it was not the strongest.
After breaking through this barrier, Qin Chen continued forward. After a moment, he encountered another barrier...
Thus, after Qin Chen shattered twenty-one barriers in a row with the path of the sword, he finally found himself unable to break through a new barrier.
“Space path!”
He then began to activate the space path.
Layer after layer was broken apart, but it soon lost its breaking ability.
Next was the avenue of time! One after another, paths were continuously unleashed from Qin Chen.
Then came the path of thunder! By the time Qin Chen shattered one hundred and fifty barriers, he was utterly exhausted.
What appeared before Qin Chen this time was finally not a new barrier. The path ahead suddenly seemed to come to an end, revealing a staircase.
And upon the staircase, vast waves of chaos aura surged, and within that chaos aura, shadowy silhouettes flickered.
“What is that?”
Before Qin Chen, floating phantoms passed by, magnificent and stunning, leaving him in utter shock.
“This is the origin of chaos!”
“Origin of chaos?”
“Do you see the flowing lights and phantoms here?
These lights represent various chaotic rules, the living beings evolved from chaos.”
Qin Chen focused and looked closely; indeed, these phantoms were soaring birds and fierce beasts, rushing through the chaos aura on this staircase.
Qin Chen was completely stunned; if it weren't for the reminder from the Primordial Ancestral Dragon, he might have thought these were real life forms. Unexpectedly, they were merely beings manifested from chaos aura.
“What... what exactly is this place?”
Qin Chen struggled to regain his senses for a long time, finally taking a deep breath and incredulously asking the Primordial Ancestral Dragon.
The Primordial Ancestral Dragon replied, “A testing ground. There is an existence that has emerged from the primordial chaos, leaving behind its insights here and making it its home, thus transforming this place into a holy land within the universe.”
“Testing ground?”
Qin Chen looked at the staircase and the chaotic phantoms in shock. “Those previous paths and these chaotic phantoms, are they all results of its experiments?”
“No, those are merely the natural aura emanated by that existence. The aura it released evolved into the paths of heaven and earth, forming various chaotic entities. Even we, these primordial beings and chaotic creatures, aspire to gain the powers from it.”
Even the Primordial Ancestral Dragon wanted the power from that being; what kind of existence was this?
“Senior Primordial Ancestral Dragon, who exactly is this person?”
Qin Chen gazed at this space.
There were likely countless paths hidden within. If one could comprehend all the paths, many would go crazy for it.
The Primordial Ancestral Dragon shook his head and said, “I never said it was a person.”
“Not a person?”
“You'll know once you go up. If you can reach the top of this staircase, then you’ll find the answer, which is what I want to know as well,” said the Primordial Ancestral Dragon.
This made Qin Chen even more curious; what answer did the Primordial Ancestral Dragon seek?
Qin Chen did not continue to ask. After spending so much time with the Primordial Ancestral Dragon, he understood the other’s temperament. If the other wanted to tell him, they would, but if not, no matter how much he asked, there would be no answer.
