"Doomsday has so much power?!"
Gu Chuan was amazed.
He could sense that the body of the Eater was covered with dense white light spots, each one representing a different manifestation of doomsday power, each carrying a destructive aura.
These light spots were only what he could perceive, and there were over a billion of them!
It's important to note that the Chaos World has only entered the nine doomsdays, and nearly all the creatures within the Chaos World have been destroyed, drastically altering the ecology of the entire realm.
If hundreds of millions of doomsdays were to descend upon the Chaos World, it would be enough to completely obliterate and shatter it in an instant. Even Gu Chuan wouldn't stand a chance against it.
And this was merely the doomsday power attached to the Eater. If this was its true power, it would likely be many times more terrifying than the doomsday itself.
"Is Doomsday just a servant of the Eater?"
Gu Chuan was struck with astonishment.
He had grossly underestimated the true horror of the Eater. Even if it was a creature from beyond the door, it was undoubtedly a powerful one, the likes of which could not be comprehended by ordinary beings.
"Oops!"
Just as Gu Chuan was about to take a closer look at the Eater, he suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of danger, as if he had glimpsed the long river of time and space unfolding in the future.
At a certain moment beyond that, he startled the Eater, and as a result, was killed instantly by a single sneeze, wiped out without a trace. All the supernatural powers on his body would have been ineffective, reduced to nothingness.
Whoosh!
In that instant, Gu Chuan quickly blurred his form, becoming invisible and merging into the void, erasing all traces of his presence.
"Ok?!"
The terrifying giant beast, the Eater, glanced upward, momentarily puzzled, as if sensing something, but finding nothing, it dismissed it as an illusion.
With a snap, it resumed its position by the Gate of Eternal Life, lying down and falling into a deep sleep.
"Fortunately, I acted swiftly. Otherwise, this clone would've been finished."
Gu Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, grateful for his quick thinking.
Though he was nothing more than dust in comparison to the Eater, even less than dust, any hostile action towards such a being would be perceived.
Had he approached the Eater a moment ago, he would have been surrounded and obliterated by the countless doomsday energies attached to it in an instant.
This was not the predator actively attacking, but merely its defensive instinct.
"It seems that without sufficient strength, one cannot approach this Eater recklessly."
Gu Chuan's eyes flickered with realization. He had no intention of disturbing the Eater any further. Waking such a terrifying existence could bring about unpredictable consequences.
"But where should I go?"
At that moment, he found himself uncertain.
He was unfamiliar with and knew nothing about the world beyond the door, and had no idea where to seek what he needed.
Surrounding him was nothing but chaos, with no sense of direction—no up, down, left, or right. Wandering in such a place would only result in getting lost, without any understanding of where he might end up.
"Ah, the Wish Feng Shui compass. I still have the Chaos Supreme Treasure, the Wish Feng Shui compass."
Gu Chuan suddenly remembered the secret treasure on his person. Back when he was still weak, it had been this treasure that helped him locate the Chaos Orb and many other treasures, rapidly increasing his power.
Now that he had grown stronger, the compass had been relegated to his treasure vault, seldom used.
However, this magic artifact could still play an incredible role in critical moments. It could provide him with a glimmer of hope in adversity and, most importantly, grant him any wish he desired.
But venturing in such a perilous realm, if his avatar were killed, he could also lose the Wish Feng Shui compass, which was a risk he would have to accept.
"It seems I must be cautious moving forward. This clone must not die; otherwise, the Wish Feng Shui compass might be lost in the endless void."
Gu Chuan's eyes gleamed with determination.
With that thought in mind, he wasted no time and immediately returned to the Chaos World to retrieve the Wish Feng Shui compass.
"Wish Feng Shui compass, help me find the place that knows everything."
With the compass in hand, Gu Chuan focused his mind on the thought.
Clatter~~
In an instant, the immense power of Blood Essence within his body was poured into the Wish Feng Shui compass. The energy surged forth, activating the full potential of the artifact.
Immediately, the needle of the compass spun wildly, as if it were sensing the infinite strands of fate in the dark, connecting with the boundless powers of destiny, and seeking out the optimal path.
After a few breaths, the spinning needle finally came to a halt, pointing in one direction...
At the same time, a massive amount of route information flooded into the depths of Gu Chuan's consciousness.
"It actually consumed one-tenth of my Blood Essence."
To be honest, after being promoted to Primordial Chaos Saint and mastering the two thousand laws of the Dao, Gu Chuan's body, with the Primordial Ancient Serpent's power, had become vastly more powerful.
The Blood Essence in his body was immeasurable, each drop of blood as vast as a planet, with an incredibly dense energy. Yet, now, a full tenth of it had been consumed.
It was clear how much energy had been used to find this place.
Had he not been promoted to the realm of Primordial Chaos Saint, he likely wouldn't have been able to use the Wish Feng Shui compass to locate this place.
Nevertheless, Gu Chuan knew that these sacrifices were well worth it. Once he reached this place, he would gain access to endless knowledge about the world beyond the door.
Such knowledge would provide immeasurable benefits for his future development.
Whoosh!
Thinking this, Gu Chuan wasted no time. His figure flickered, and his avatar emerged once more, silently.
Of course, during this process, he was careful to avoid the Eater, ensuring that it wouldn't detect any creatures leaving the Chaos World, thus avoiding potential trouble.
"By the way, it should be in this direction."
Gu Chuan's avatar held the Wish Feng Shui compass in his hand, glancing at the direction it pointed, before immediately flying off in that direction.
At once, wings of time-space feathers sprouted from his back, and he unfurled them, soaring high. The power of the time-space Dao emanated around him, generating a tremendous force of propulsion.
With a single flap of his wings, he covered hundreds of millions of light years in an instant.
At the same time, his body shifted into a state of nothingness, blending into the surrounding chaos. No force could impede his movement, as if he existed in a vacuum.
With the combined power of his time-space wings and this void state, Gu Chuan's speed was unimaginable.
In a split second, the wings of time and space flapped lightly, propelling him across countless light years.
In the blink of an eye, the Chaos World disappeared behind him.
Fortunately, Gu Chuan's main body and avatar were spiritually connected by Karma. No matter the distance, they could still sense each other. Otherwise, the connection would be severed, and they would be unable to reconnect.
