Chaos Integration

The moment had arrived. After months of preparation and refinement, I stood at the threshold of my plan ~ the integration of chaos energy into my very being. The modified Taishang refinement technique, woven into the second chapter of my Boundless Divine Transformation of Energy, Spirit, and Body, had brought me to this pivotal juncture.

Within my Dantian, the fruits of countless hours of body refinement had manifested as prototype internal gang energy centre. These weren't true stars like nine stars of saint yet, merely gang energy conversion points etched with complex God runes and connected to the Tao pillars that ran through my physical form. They remained dormant, waiting for the catalyst that would awaken them.

The fundamental problem was: Gang energy, for all its power, simply couldn't function within the energy center of Dantian. The internal world I'd cultivated was constructed from true essence, while my body channeled gang energy ~ two forces that refused to harmonize. It was like trying to mix oil and water, each repelling the other with stubborn determination.

But even with this incompatibility and yet putting up nine gang energy runes within dantian wasn't a flaw in my design. It was intentional, a carefully orchestrated setup for the chaos Qi integration I now faced.

Chaos Qi represented the highest essence energy of the Third Globe World, the primordial source from which both true essence and gang energy were merely pale derivatives. It was the missing piece that would bridge the gap between these opposing forces.

The theory behind creating an contained internal holy domain within a martial artist's body demanded an external source of higher energy.

In the saint's universe, the true essence flowing through secondary beings paled in comparison to the universe's own true essence. Even a saint's true essence couldn't match the raw power of chaos Qi from the endless void beyond. When both energies shared the same chaotic origin, the result would be spectacular ~ a world forming spontaneously in the outer domain, born from the endless chaos itself.

This external connection would allow for rapid replenishment of chaos energy from the infinite reservoir outside. But there was a catch that had plagued every previous attempt at this technique as it is for me. Once I portal-traveled to another world, this connection would be severed, leaving me disconnected with my internal domain, powerless and back to inherent body cultivation.

The fundamental question remained: could any being comprehend the 373 distinct types of Fourth Globe World energy while still existing as a Third World lifeform, so that when they even began cultivating chaos Qi at divine sea level? The answer, for everyone else, was a resounding no. Without this comprehension, forming a self-contained holy domain universe remained impossible ~ an inherent limitation that had defeated countless cultivators before me.

But I possessed something that changed everything: creation energy. The highest tier of conceptual power across all existence, it operated on principles that defied the common understanding of lesser beings. When I wielded creation energy, the impossible became merely improbable.

Take for example, the duplication and restoration capabilities inherent in creation energy. It transcended conventional logic. Whether faced with a world or an entire universe, if it fell within my sphere of influence, I could duplicate it completely as if its cost depends only on size of the intended object.

The restoration of creation energy wasn't about matching quality but rather quantity of energy. How else would soul force, true essence or even divine tribulation energy could be converted back to full capacity of this power through even though the energy is simply on another level.

***

My solution was elegantly simple. I would create a shield of creation energy around my energy center, with carefully designed openings for the World Tree roots I'd cultivated. This would allow my internal world to maintain spatial access to the outer chaos, drawing energy through cross-world divine abilities, while remaining completely contained within my being. When I needed to sever the connection, the shield would close completely, bringing the entire domain back into my self through sheer force of will.

But as of currently I have no way of applying absolute ability to that energy, like spatial reduction or time reduction but I believe it will in future, because I was granted wish to receive conceptual abilities that best suitable for the life level according to my needs.

Since my energy center existed within my own body, I had complete control over this process. Even after the birth of the Land of Beginning, no matter how many light-years the connection might span, the creation energy shield would respond to my commands and return everything to me instantly.

The Transformation Begins

With the theory proven and the preparations complete, I began the actual process. A barrier of pure creation energy enveloped my Dantian, leaving only a small opening ~ enough to maintain the connection while keeping everything contained within my essence.

Then came the moment of truth: introducing the Qi of Primal Chaos to the liquid true essence that filled my energy center.

Chaos Qi + true essence = more Chaos Qi

The ocean of lavender true essence began to boil immediately. Discomfort washed over me in waves, as if my very core was being subjected to intense boiling steam, but nothing approaching the agonizing transformation that Luo Zheng had endured in the original technique.

My body had already achieved supreme divine tier physique, and the energy channels running through my form possessed the inherent ability to support chaotic gas in its lower, gaseous form plus Dantian is held stable by creation energy.

When it first channeled, my adaptive body begin its work. Body characteristics slowly began to change. 

The modified technique I'd developed also included vein refinement scripture that seamlessly synchronized my body's ability to sustain energy with the quality of essence within. As the chaos Qi began its work, the refinement of Qi conduits throughout my entire body commenced automatically.

The technique transformed the boundary of my internal world to form a connection to the outer domain, but this time the transformation was limited to the bottom of the world where I'd intentionally left gaps in the creation energy shield. Instead of feeling like my body was being torn apart and reformed, it was more like having my entire interior plunged into boiling steam ~ uncomfortable but manageable.

Far beyond the God Domain, in the endless void of outer chaos, something remarkable happened. A portal-like structure opened instead of a full world materializing from the primordial chaos. An invisible ethereal barrier remained in place. After the boundary refinement completed, the portal vanished as quickly as it had appeared.

After Transformation

Three days passed in this state of transformation.

During this time, the entire reservoir of liquid essence within my Dantian converted to chaotic clouds, and the energy content throughout my body increased dramatically. This was expected ~ chaotic energy naturally expanded when it devoured lower quality true essence, just like any other higher-level energy consuming its inferior counterparts.

The chaotic clouds began their condensation process, forming small liquid form around the World Tree at the center of my internal space, but stopped once all the true essence had been completely transformed and Chaos is still sticky viscous gas.

I decided to accelerate the process by absorbing spiritual flame from the environment outside and directing it into my inner world. More and more chaotic essence began to transform and condense into liquid chaos Qi. Three weeks passed in this intensive cultivation.

Rather than rushing the process, I allocated most of the chaotic essence to nourish the World Tree's root system, supplementing it with laws of life. The tree responded immediately, growing rapidly as its roots reached further down into the depths of my internal world. However, it needed solidified land to approach anywhere near the boundary formed by my creation energy shield.

Recognizing this limitation, I stopped supplying the tree with additional energy and focused entirely on condensing the sea of chaos Qi. A month of intensive cultivation produced a denser chaos sea, maintaining the same size as my Dantian but with significantly increased energy density.

The ten prototype stars runes I'd created earlier floated on a platform of creation energy above the chaos ocean. These God Lines were connected to the liquid essence through circulation of gaseous true chaos essence that evaporated naturally from the sea below.

Gang energy, which needed to flow through the rest of my body, would normally require separation from the internal essence, but my supreme divine tier body was now capable of channeling gang Qi based on chaos energy directly.

Well it again triggered my adaptive body, just like when first adjusting to universe rules and true essence circulation, the refined channels started to branch out and closely integrate with Tao pillars after being channeled with chaos energy. In fact as if sensing my refinement of body as a weapon and the new energy has some relation, different changes were happening throughout all the while.

The runes served as facilitators for the technique's conversion process. Soon, they would be based on divine ability once I achieved mastery. Divine Ability could be condensed as a source of power, containing the accumulation of strength origin divine dao.

For others, this might represent power beyond dao ability, but for cultivators like Luo Zheng and myself, who possessed chaos worlds within, it could be formed just like any other divine dao condensation.

Testing the New Power

Curiosity compelled me to test my newfound strength. The perfect adaptation to higher being status, combined with the essence of saint race and primordial bloodlines, had produced remarkable results. The laws of the world ~ every single one from life to death, causality, space, and time ~ had reached the ninth layer peak immediately upon my re-transformation. The knowledge of fusion of laws suddenly starts to appear in mind as if it is common sense.

I could feel the heavenly dao placing restrictions on the tenth layer leading to the crown of destiny, limiting access to 128 specific pathways. Previously true essence limited the law perception, now chaos Qi and the bodily structure were closely monitored in LoHP and the new understandings flowed through my soul.

The flame I created using chaotic essence began to burn away the immortal flame that surrounded me in this flame realm. I descended deep to the surface of the realm and gathered the new form of gang energy, then attempted to blast downward with pure physical strength. The resulting crater was a hundred times larger than what I could have created before. The new essence was at least a thousand times stronger, and my physical strength had increased by a hundredfold.

A week later Ocean of Chaos Qi restored entirely.

Having already passed the tribulation of divine sea level true essence up to peak level and increased my Dantian world level previously, I had now regained equivalent strength through primal chaos cultivation. I was ready for the final realm upgrade.

The Final Breakthrough

The time had come for the Divine Extremity Realm. I had attempted to simulate the seventh layer of thunder law within my internal world to facilitate the birth of land, but the energy inside, formed by liquid chaos Qi, couldn't create enough solidified chaos Qi to generate an entire landmass.

The ocean of chaos was simply too vast and powerful. Shortcuts weren't possible ~ I would need to undergo the proper tribulation. I consumed another Drawing Tribulation Pill, and the Heavenly Dao sensed my intent immediately.

My 35-petal lotus manifested above me. 

The Great Star Tribulation began to manifest with unprecedented intensity. This was beyond the scope of any normal realm advancement. Even if I remained within bright purple flame realm, the tribulation is bigger than the realm itself in outer space. Law tribulation incorporating the creation of five elements and stellar concepts began to descend upon me. For the first time, light bloomed within my internal world, and the concepts of day and night began to simulate naturally.

The chaos Qi devoured the tribulation energy hungrily, causing the tribulation to increase in both size and duration. The heavenly dao seemed determined to continue until it either succeeded in crossing me or exhausted itself in the attempt.

My understanding crossed 10th layer from flaws of 9th layer energy in the middle of tribulation and successfully comprehended it. But I didn't activate it, else it would trigger heavenly dao to surge in strength with elimination, even forcing destiny holder's to act.

The universe of great expansion set limit to 128 destinies, and other's accessing them without crown of destiny would cause instability of world.

Then came the sequence I had been expecting: fire tribulation, heart demon tribulation, life law tribulation, and finally the green thunder tribulation.

The energy received from each tribulation had been gathering in a circle near the Tree of Life at the center of my internal world. When the green thunder, with its enormous concentrated energy, completely drowned the ocean of chaos, it provided the final catalyst for transformation ~ the formation of solid True chaos and the birth of land.

A mishap

But suddenly purple physique activated, information about sword formations rapidly began to emerge in mind out of no where and triggered one outside.

Immediately four swords made of purple qi began to revolve around me in rapid pace. They are not any sword technique created by Han Jiuyi, but understanding of purple divine dao forming shapes of swords in formation.

I avoided going to purple extreme realm and study knowledge from the people there just because I don't want to accelerate the essence of extreme yin within me deepening further, before true essence changing to Chaos energy.

But now my pure extreme yin body activated on its own, understanding from library of immortal mansion and chaos Qi was enough for LoHP to figure out flawless basics of purple divine dao out of nowhere.

The comprehension of purple yin divine dao bloomed in my mind due to completion of previous body adaptive evolution, sensing chaos energy and now triggered by sudden life level growth and understanding derived by analysis of chaos qi.

36 Petal Mahayama Lotus

The heavenly way vibrated. The Last petal suddenly bloomed. The manifestation of divine dao outside willed a star to form above complex god runes made of chaos by themselves.

Star only stayed for a moment, but I am sure my soul in process of merging with essence of LoHP, picked up that also. I felt power rise above the way of heavenly dao suddenly and leaving it as soon.

My soul suddenly expanded and strengthened crossing threshold of Gold Battle soul.

The previous star-fall tribulation wasn't enough back then, to light up the 36th petal as I haven't reached characteristics of full understanding of any divine dao first layer yet, but now it suddenly had.

But before seeing the magnificent sight of performance rating of heaven in 36 petals, I was drawn by the changes in internal world.

The land began forming from below the World Tree, extending down toward the center of the ocean and beginning to condense from within. The tribulation continued for an entire day.

After it ended, I could sense multiple powerful beings had already detected heavenly path vibration and the floating full petal mahayama lotus, and I wasn't particularly fond of introductions or explanations. But this time they are already standing above the flames.

The one who appeared near was a lady with realm lord cultivation. And more and more people were standing in the void. Two heavenly venerates also entered, but they don't seem to sense me. And is questioning his followers about it.

It seems that my power level has grown and realm Lords won't do much, so the absolute shielding reinstated rules allowed them to see but not venerates.

" What is your name girl? How can you withstand immortal profound flames that I took several years to capture?"

" .... "

" You are not a life form evolved from this divine fire realm are you? How are you here in the first place?"

" ... "

"Ah Don't be alarmed. We sensed the first complete Mahayana Lotus in a while. Congratulations you have ascended to a Daozi of this universe. But are you not aware the dream battle field will begin in a few years. Only Divine sea realm can participate in it. You need to condense divine spark, but you don't have spark plate. What a loss.. "

It seems the people coming here didn't quite understood or sensed what happened as I was momentarily promoted to true God realm and fell back a day before.

Another seem to question, " Girl why can't I sense you at all? I can only see you when you turn to look at me and not anytime else.." It seems to be a heavenly venerate.

What a headache.This is why I choose to stay private. 

" I don't know, but no one ever told me that, in fact the first lady could see me perfectly fine." I replied in my mild voice.

" Lord, but we can perceive her presence with no problem." Underlings commented.

The guy wanted more: " Strange. I can't seem to sense your fate either!"

" .... "

Another, this time a realm lord: "Wait. You have the mark of celestial clan on your body. Have you completed any of our trial?"

" Yes. Ling long tower." The person's eyes brightened while many other's changed. 

" What rank?"

Seeing my silence, the earlier celestial clan realm lord send a true essence transmission:

" Wait are you Miss Tao!!"

Seeing my attention, he seemed to guess and told " We have been looking for her for two years ... given your silence and the fully opened flower of Mahayana, it must be you."

Hmm? It means this realm also has some change in time flow. During my years of refinement here means, Luo Yan is probably taken away, Luo Zheng has completed tower of refinement and ventured into genuine dragon realm and even married probably? I also missed him entering immortal mansion again. Chaos cultivation started?

" Are you? We invite you to come to our celestial clan. Don't worry, you can gain excellent opportunities, and even a chance to ascend even if you miss dream battlefield..." He continued in true essence message.

I was about to activate the portal and when I remembered, God forbidden lands and the destiny suppression object contained within their clan patriarch.

" Yes...I would like to come with you then. But I wish to have my freedom."

" Sure..even our patriarch wishes to meet with you." Then he turned to others who were observing me surrounded by flames that disappeared at once through my control. "You heard him folks, this person is a talent related to our clan. Our patriarch wanted to meet him. He also wishes to come with us. He will be doazi of our clan..."

" Hold on. Are you sure about it kid? At least tell me how are the flames avoiding you and how you end up here?"

" Yes. Ninth layer of space and fire." I had shown law energy in each hands.

The celestial clan world lord already grabbed me and opened a great teleport using some god rune and went inside as if afraid of others grabbing him.
