Chapter 1337: Great Saint of Chaos

A figure emerged from the star gate, radiating an aura sharp enough to pierce through chaos.

Sensing this overwhelming presence, the Ancestral Giant Wolf instantly panicked.

“A chaotic saint realm expert? Impossible!!” Without a second thought, the Ancestral Giant Wolf attempted to flee, tearing through space toward the edge of the battlefield.

However, the surrounding space had already been sealed by Xu Fan, leaving no room for the Ancestral Giant Wolf’s chaotic body to escape.

“Trying to run? Too late.”

A starry heavy arrow shot through the Ancestral Giant Wolf.

A second arrow followed immediately.

The first arrow shattered the Ancestral Giant Wolf’s defenses, while the second inflicted severe damage to its chaotic body.

Unable to endure any longer, the Ancestral Giant Wolf reverted to its true form as a member of the Wolf Clan and cried out in desperation, “The Underworld Clan backs us! If you kill me, their chaotic saint will intervene!”

“A chaotic saint? Oh, I’m terrified!”

Another starry heavy arrow struck, obliterating the Wolf Clan expert’s chaotic body.

By now, the Wolf Clan expert’s chaotic body was reduced to just 60% of its original strength.

Trembling with fear, the Wolf Clan expert stared at Yuan Lord and the others, a chilling dread spreading through his entire being.

Xu Fan grinned at the Wolf Clan expert.

“Xu the Divine Master, should we finish him off?” Arrow Elder asked.

“Kill him. Turning him into a puppet would be pointless,” Xu Fan replied, adding several more layers of chaotic grand formation to prevent the Wolf Clan expert from self-destructing.

“Understood,” Arrow Elder nodded, and six more starry heavy arrows materialized behind him.

“Let’s see how many arrows you can withstand.”

Under the Wolf Clan expert’s terrified gaze, Arrow Elder drew back the giant bow once more.

Arrow after arrow flew toward the Wolf Clan expert.

Each strike caused the Wolf Clan expert’s chaotic body to explode and reform.

But by the fourth arrow, the Wolf Clan expert’s body shattered completely, unable to recover.

As the battle concluded, Yuan Lord and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

“Good thing I left a star gate imprint on Arrow Elder. Otherwise, this fight would’ve been a lot more troublesome,” Yuan Lord remarked with a smile.

“What’s the big deal? We could’ve fought for a hundred years if we had to,” Body Refinement Elder chuckled.

Just as the group prepared to collect the remains of the Wolf Clan expert and inspect their spoils, a deep, rhythmic heartbeat echoed from the depths of the Chaotic Mist Area.

The sound resonated in their chests, causing their own hearts to race.

Xu Fan’s expression turned grave as he pushed the Hunyuan array disk to its absolute limit.

The 88-layer defensive chaotic grand formation activated, and he urgently turned to Yuan Lord. “Quick! Use the star gate to escape. A Great Saint of Chaos is fighting nearby.”

No sooner had he spoken than the heartbeat echoed once more.

In the depths of the Chaotic Mist Area, a powerful wave swept through, shattering over seventy layers of the defensive formation. Seeing this, Yuan Lord immediately pulled out the star gate and transported everyone to an unknown region.

In a dark corner of the chaotic land, a spatial fluctuation rippled, and several figures appeared. “Those two heartbeats just now drained half of my chaotic body’s essence,” Arrow Elder said, his face pale. “Forty percent of my holy body has been depleted,” Lord of the Demon Domain said shakily, pulling out a recovery pill and swallowing it. Xu Fan and the others also took out recovery pills. “That was terrifying. If it weren’t for the star gate, we’d be done for,” Body Refinement Elder said with relief. “A Great Saint of Chaos is truly fearsome,” Xu Fan muttered in awe, recalling a phrase from his past life. “We owe you our lives, Yuan Lord,” Arrow Elder said. “We’re all part of the same clan; no need for formalities,” Yuan Lord replied. “But the star gate was forced to activate and took some damage. I’m not sure if we can break through space again anytime soon,” Yuan Lord added with a sigh. “Let’s head back to the First Transfer Exchange World. Once the star gate recovers, you can venture out again,” Xu Fan said, summoning a grand formation to scan their surroundings. “We’re currently in the chaotic area between the southern and eastern regions. It’ll take some time to get back,” Xu Fan explained, pulling out the Heavenly Position Pearl to contact the Heavenly Merchant Clan. The Heavenly Merchant Clan offers a service where, for one million Primordial Purple Qi crystals, they can transport you from the outskirts of the chaotic center to any transfer exchange world. After a moment of communication, Xu Fan looked up, disappointed. “This area has become a battleground between two clans. The only way back is to travel slowly,” he said. “How long will that take?” Yuan Lord asked. “Over two thousand years, but if we push hard, we can shave off about five hundred years,” Xu Fan replied.

Just then, a bright light suddenly illuminated the dark chaotic area, turning it as bright as day. A scorching heat followed, making it feel as though they were standing within the Holy Light Star. Xu Fan raised his hand, and an eighteen-layer defensive formation shielded everyone. As they recovered, the light was quickly swallowed by darkness. Before they could catch their breath, the space around them began to twist. The interplay of light and darkness rapidly drained their essence. “Damn it, this isn’t ending,” Xu Fan muttered. He activated an eighty-eight-layer chaotic defensive formation to protect everyone from further essence loss. “We can’t stay here. If we do, we’ll be worn down eventually,” Xu Fan said, conjuring a detection formation in the chaotic land. He spotted a chaotic saint-level giant beast struggling amidst the light and darkness. “Arrow Elder, help me subdue this chaotic giant beast. I need to create a small world inside it to shield us from the battle fluctuations,” Xu Fan said quickly. “Got it,” Arrow Elder replied, firing a stabilizing arrow. Combined with the heavy formation Xu Fan had set up, the chaotic giant beast was instantly subdued.

Inside a temporary, beautifully crafted small world, everyone gathered to recover their depleted essence. “Our human race is truly weak in this vast Chaotic Mist Area,” Yuan Lord remarked. “Yes, and this is just a Great Saint of Chaos. There are even more powerful beings beyond that,” Lord of the Demon Domain added with a sigh. “Keep practicing. I’m sure you’ll all become Great Saints of Chaos one day,” Xu Fan said casually, sipping tea. “Right. Our human race will have its own Great Saint of Chaos eventually,” Yuan Lord said. But as soon as he finished speaking, another wave swept through the Chaotic Mist Area. The chaotic giant beast containing the small world let out a pained roar, though the small world itself remained unaffected. “One of them is likely a Great Saint from the Underworld Clan, and the other is probably from the Holy Light Empire,” Xu Fan said, pulling out the Heavenly Position Pearl to contact the Heavenly Merchant Clan for updates. “The Underworld Clan has joined forces with two other races to attack the Heavenly Merchant Clan and the Holy Light Empire, but it’s just minor skirmishes at the chaotic saint level. The real big shots haven’t stepped in yet,” Xu Fan explained. “What’s the cause of the conflict?” Yuan Lord asked curiously. “According to the Heavenly Merchant Clan, it’s over a divine artifact,” Xu Fan replied. “Well, this level of conflict doesn’t concern us. We just need to stay hidden,” Yuan Lord said.

At that moment, another wave swept through, and the light and darkness in the chaotic land intertwined, creating a dazzling spectacle.
