Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk 'Work Hard, Rest Hard'-Chapter 540: Strength Soars, Watching the Storm Rise

Su Yuan took a single step and instantly arrived at the outermost edge of the Nine Stars Land.

It could be seen that a Little Chaos was embedded right at the border of the Nine Stars Land, adjacent to "Nothingness." This was precisely the Little Chaos belonging to Su Yuan's Second Avatar.

Su Yuan glanced at it. The development within the Little Chaos was still proceeding step by step. World after world grew within the chaos, gradually evolving into a myriad of chaotic realms.

As the number of worlds increased, as the worlds matured and life advanced, the day when the Little Chaos would develop into a true Chaos was within sight.

Su Yuan glanced at it and paid it no further mind.

He took another step, and his entire person instantly stepped into "Nothingness."

A layer of True Name Power enveloped him, protecting his existence from being erased by the erosion of "Nothingness."

True Name Eternal!

His true name was the essence of eternity, the very synonym for existence, sufficient to protect Su Yuan within "Nothingness" for a certain period.

Su Yuan looked around. It was a void of nothingness, where absolutely nothing existed.

He turned to look back.

The Taihao Chaos was also nowhere to be seen.

Beyond Chaos lay "Nothingness." "Nothingness" held no concept of space. Infinite distance and immediate adjacency could be the same concept.

The moment Su Yuan stepped out of the Taihao Chaos, he was separated from it by an endless distance.

Yet, to return, he needed only a single step.

Su Yuan had come here to test whether he could, relying solely on the True Name Great Dao, directly evolve a Chaos and prove his way to the Dominator realm!

"Open!"

Su Yuan's lips parted slightly, and a sound of the Great Dao exploded within this "Nothingness"!

A point was born from nothing within "Nothingness."

The point traced an area, forming a line. The line tore open, forming a plane. The plane collapsed into a sphere!

The interior of the small sphere was originally empty as well, yet under the influence of True Name Power, it instantly evolved into a Chaos!

Chaotic Energy wildly expanded within it. The True Name Dao Principle instantly evolved endless rules, decomposing this Chaotic Energy!

Thus, a Little Chaos was born!

A flicker passed through Su Yuan's eyes as he waited for the Little Chaos to grow.

However, in the next instant, the erosion and decomposition of "Nothingness" struck. The Little Chaos simply could not withstand the destruction of "Nothingness." From a conceptual level, this Little Chaos was directly eliminated.

"Not possible?"

A trace of doubt flashed in Su Yuan's eyes.

Back then, he had used a Chaos Flower to open up a Chaos. With merely twelve Dao Principles, a Chaos was successfully born, so there was no problem with the Dao Principles.

The key was that within that Chaos Flower was contained a vast amount of Chaos Origin, providing sufficient support for the initial growth of the Chaos.

Although he could easily use the True Name Dao Principle to open up a Little Chaos, due to insufficient origin, the Little Chaos simply had no time to grow before being directly devoured by "Nothingness."

"Nothingness is indeed still so powerful!"

Su Yuan exclaimed in amazement.

However, what Su Yuan did not realize was that his current ability to have his true body directly descend into "Nothingness" was also an immensely powerful feat.

"Must I still rely on the method of opening a Little Chaos attached to the Taihao Chaos and letting it grow gradually to reach the Chaos Dominator level?"

"There should be a way. Otherwise, how did the original Chaos come into being?"

Su Yuan pondered.

He felt that opening a Chaos on someone else's turf was still inappropriate, as it might leave some leverage. Therefore, after his First Avatar broke through, he thought of coming directly into "Nothingness" to open a Chaos.

"Chaos Jade is the most fundamental power. If I obtain sufficient Chaos Jade, I should be able to directly open a Chaos!"

After some thought, Su Yuan mused inwardly.

He wasn't sure exactly how much was needed.

But naturally, the more, the better.

"Since I cannot directly open a Chaos for now, I should return."

Su Yuan shook his head and took a step back.

In an instant, he reappeared within the Nine Stars Land.

The time was exactly the same as when Su Yuan had left; not a single moment had passed.

After he stepped into "Nothingness," the concept of time did not exist. Therefore, only after he returned to the Taihao Chaos would time within it resume its flow.

Su Yuan pointed a finger towards the Little Chaos of his Second Avatar.

"One Glance, Ten Thousand Kalpas!"

His words seemed to be the most fundamental rules of existence.

Within that Little Chaos, time instantly accelerated countless times over.

A single breath passed, yet within it, ten thousand Kalpas had already elapsed!

The entire Chaos had successfully evolved to the fourth step, the fifth step, the sixth step!

The interior of the Chaos had become extremely prosperous. Countless lives had appeared, and even a cultivator at the Dao Yan Realm had emerged!

Su Yuan paused slightly, then continued to manipulate True Name Power to accelerate the growth of the Little Chaos.

Under his acceleration, the Little Chaos instantly went from prosperity to extinction.

The interior of the Little Chaos, originally teeming with countless lives and numerous worlds, marched towards destruction during the process of time acceleration.

The Little Chaos returned to stillness, and its resistance to "Nothingness" instantly dropped significantly.

The nearly completed deduction was instantly reset to zero.

Seeing this, Su Yuan was not concerned.

He mobilized True Name Power once again to accelerate the growth of the Little Chaos.

The interior of the Little Chaos began a continuous cycle of acceleration, growth, prosperity, and destruction.

Birth, development, prosperity, destruction—cycle after cycle of reincarnation.

Finally, on the last cycle, the Little Chaos reached the eighth step. Its interior had reached an extremely perfected state. Among the cultivators born within it, there were already tens of thousands at the Dao Yan Realm, and three had even reached the peak of the Dao Yan Realm, just a step away from breaking through to the Dao Venerable realm.

The entire Little Chaos was nearing completion. With just a bit more refinement, it could completely step into "Nothingness" and become a true Chaos Universe.

But Su Yuan stopped at this step. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

He didn't know if there would be danger or unexpected events upon breaking through to the Chaos Dominator realm.

Therefore, he was in no hurry to take the final step.

He only needed to wait a while longer, accumulate enough Chaos Jade, and then he could go to Nothingness himself to directly open a Chaos. That version of him would be the true Chaos Dominator.

Su Yuan returned to the Seven Stars Dao Court, took out a fishing rod, and quietly fished at the highest point of the Seven Stars Dao Court.

Utterly at ease and leisurely.

The True Name Jade Disc was of tremendous help to him. Nowadays, Su Yuan didn't even need to strive hard; he only needed to slowly accumulate Chaos Jade!

However, while the tree desires stillness, the wind will not cease.

Venerable Yuanhao had already arrived at the Nine Stars Land, entered the Nine Extreme Treasure Star, and begun making arrangements.

He found several of Su Yuan's disciples. Then, he placed some treasures along the paths these disciples were taking, allowing them to "luckily" obtain the treasures.

Finally, in a dangerous location, Venerable Yuanhao set up a peerless killing trap and placed his most precious treasure within it. With all preparations complete, he now only waited for Su Yuan to take the bait.
