Chapter 31: Brother, I’ve Finally Waited for You

Within the chaotic energy, Qu Yi remained immersed in a state of comfort. The chaotic energy around him continuously flowed into his body, washing through it and transforming his original Five Elements body into a Chaos body. Time seemed eternal; unaware of what was happening outside, Qu Yi focused on absorbing the chaotic energy and transforming his body. invisibly, his physical body acted like a black hole, frantically absorbing the chaotic energy from the surrounding space, turning it all into part of himself. As the chaotic energy diminished, the Star-Stabilizing Stone that had surrounded it also gradually shrank. The Star-Stabilizing Stone could freely manipulate space! Yet Qu Yi paid no attention to what was happening outside, remaining absorbed in the pleasure of transforming his body with the chaotic energy. A quarter of Qu Yi’s original body had already turned into a Chaos body, and now, with the surging chaotic energy, his entire body was rapidly transforming. Half, most of it, all of it. Time passed unknowingly until Qu Yi’s body was finally completely transformed into a Chaos body. Meanwhile, it seemed only half of the chaotic energy in the planet’s core had been consumed. The Star-Stabilizing Stone, which had surrounded the chaotic energy, had also shrunk significantly. Suddenly, Qu Yi’s eyes opened, filled with a detached brilliance, as if nothing in the world could anymore bind him. The moment his eyes opened, a thin beam of white light, as thick as an arm, shot in from outside the cultivation realm. This white light came from nowhere, piercing through the entire cultivation realm and reaching the Five Elements Extreme Realm. Wherever the white light passed, time stopped, and everyone remained in their original positions. When it reached the Five Elements Extreme Realm, it immediately spread out, encircling the entire realm and forming a huge, dazzling white egg. An incredibly massive white egg. The white light continued moving inside the egg before finally entering Qu Yi’s eyes. “Marvelous, truly marvelous,” Qu Yi heard a calm, vast, and ancient voice as soon as the light entered his eyes. He was stunned, unsure of where he was. “Brother, I’ve finally waited for you.” Then another voice rang in his mind—ethereal and elusive, yet radiating immense power and mystery. The voice never spoke again.

It took a long time before Qu Yi regained consciousness. Then, to his joy, he discovered that his soul had reached the Mahayana stage, and his original body had completely transformed into a Chaos Body. Moreover, in front of Qu Yi, that Chaos energy had automatically turned into Chaos Crystals, piled up neatly to a height of a thousand meters. The Star-Stabilizing Stone had also shrunk, occupying only about a thousand meters of space.

“Vessel God, what’s going on? Were you talking to me just now? How did this Chaos energy condense into Chaos Crystals on its own? Why did the Star-Stabilizing Stone shrink automatically?” Qu Yi was confused and habitually turned to the Vessel God for an answer.

But the Vessel God, who had always replied to his questions, remained silent this time.

Qu Yi immediately entered the Tiny Realm Sphere and went to the lakeside, staring at the Vessel God on the soft chair. The Vessel God’s infant-like body was curled up on the chair, trembling nonstop, as if it had just experienced some terrible shock.

“Vessel God, what’s wrong?” Qu Yi grew anxious and rushed to the side of the chair, asking worriedly.

In an instant, the Vessel God disappeared from the chair and floated in the air of the Tiny Realm Sphere. It took a long time before it calmed down.

“Qu Yi, a white light entered your soul just now. The will of heaven and earth contained within it was beyond my ability to resist. If that will hadn’t deliberately spared me, I would have died by now,” the Vessel God said slowly, still showing signs of distress.

The Vessel God had always seemed indifferent to everything in the world, believing he had everything under control. But his behavior just now made him realize that there were beings even more powerful than him.

Hearing this, Qu Yi was equally confused and said, “I find it strange too. Why did two voices suddenly appear in my soul? I thought you were playing a trick on me.”

The Vessel God landed back on the soft chair, staring at Qu Yi with his eyes moving rapidly, as if deep in thought.

“Qu Yi, if I’m not mistaken, that white light was likely related to your original body transforming into a Chaos Body. That white light and those two voices came from the same person. Though I don’t know who he is, I’m sure it would be easy for him to destroy this universe,” the Vessel God said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Qu Yi became even more confused and immediately asked, “Vessel God, what do you mean by ‘universe’?”

The Spirit Tool shook its head and said with a faint smile, “The universe is incredibly vast. Your cultivation world is just a minuscule part of it—so tiny it can be ignored. As for what the universe truly is, once your cultivation improves, you’ll naturally understand on your own. There’s no need to overthink it now.”
Qu Yi nodded.
At that moment, Qu Yi also understood that the mysterious white light had not only spoken to him but also helped him condense the chaotic energy into a Chaos Crystal, causing the Star-Stabilizing Stone surrounding it to shrink as well.
…
At that time, the ten people from the Upper Realm who were in the Five Elements Extreme Realm—Zong Xi, Feng Qu, Yan Xuan, Qiu Rui, Yi Xi, Chen Yan, Rong Han, Jun Wei, Zhuo Hong, and Qi Jia—all stood motionless like stones in the starry sky.
When the white light shot into the planet below, these ten people immediately lost consciousness, as if time had stopped.
After the white light disappeared, they regained consciousness and looked at each other in panic, as if they had just experienced the most terrifying thing in their lives.
“That white light was terrifying. There was no way to resist it.”
“What just happened? I suddenly lost consciousness, but when I woke up, it seemed like nothing had happened, nothing had changed.”
“It’s strange. What exactly is this Five Elements Extreme Realm? Where did these strange energies come from?”
“I just hope to capture Qu Yi as soon as possible and leave this cultivation world right away. There are too many strange phenomena.”…
In the minds of the ten people from the Upper Realm, various doubts and panicked thoughts arose.
It wasn’t just the ten people in the Five Elements Extreme Realm who were panicked; across all the planets in the cultivation world, cultivators, ordinary people, monsters, and so on, were also thrown into great turmoil.
That white light, which came from nowhere and swept through the entire cultivation world, froze everything in a certain moment. Then, as it disappeared quickly, the entire cultivation world regained its vitality at the same instant.
“Ah, pervert! You were spying on me!”
This was a story that happened in a courtyard in the secular world. At the moment when time stopped and then resumed, a shifty-looking man was pressed against the window, staring into the room without moving. When the woman bathing in the room woke up, she discovered him.
“Hua Xue, you… defeated me.”

This is a scene from a certain planet, showing two martial arts masters dueling. Just as the white light flashed by, the two strongest martial artists in the world—Hua Xue and Gu Cheng—were frozen in mid-air. Hua Xue’s sword was pointed at Gu Cheng as she advanced, while Gu Cheng kept his right hand holding the sword behind his back, trying to block. When the white light disappeared, everything returned to normal. Hua Xue’s sword continued its thrust, and Gu Cheng, still confused, was killed by the strike.

“No… How could I fail the tribulation?”

On a desolate planet in the realm of cultivation, a cultivator in the late stage of fusion was undergoing the Thirty-Nine Heavens Tribulation. During the final tribulation, the Danxiao Tribulation, a white light flashed, freezing everything in the world, including the tribulation clouds.

After the white light vanished, the Danxiao Tribulation continued, but the cultivator failed to react and had his body destroyed by the light beam from the tribulation clouds. This cultivator was considered a prodigy in cultivation; he had prepared everything before the tribulation, confident that he would succeed. Everyone who knew him also believed he would pass. Yet, the sudden white light interrupted his path of cultivation.

Countless ordinary people, warriors, and cultivators experienced many accidents at this moment due to the appearance of the white light. Naturally, everyone in the cultivation realm fell into panic, and various chaotic scenes ensued.

…

Meanwhile, at the core of the planet, Qu Yi was smiling as he collected Chaos Crystals.

“Instrument God, with so many Chaos Crystals, I’ll have enough for the future,” Qu Yi exclaimed happily.

“Qu Yi, your true form has already transformed into a Chaos Body. I think you can try to absorb spiritual energy and see if it can turn into Chaos Energy within your body,” the Instrument God suddenly said.

Previously, Qu Yi only had one body, with mixed energy stored in his dantian. Back then, he could use this mixed energy to absorb spiritual energy, which was then divided into the five elements of energy, each absorbed by one of the five internal organs. Therefore, the Instrument God thought that if mixed energy evolved into Chaos Energy, there should also be some strange phenomena.

Upon hearing this, Qu Yi’s eyes lit up as he thought of the Instrument God’s guess.

“Okay, I’ll give it a try,” Qu Yi replied immediately.

Then, his true body immediately absorbed some spiritual energy, and he used his spiritual awareness to observe the changes in his dantian.

As the spiritual energy entered his body and condensed in his dantian, it suddenly transformed into streams of energy in five colors.

“Ah, the primal energies of the five elements!” Qu Yi exclaimed in surprise.

Just now, Qu Yi found that the spiritual energy he inhaled automatically divided into five streams—energy of metal, energy of wood, energy of water, energy of fire, and energy of earth—each gathering into its own cluster. Moreover, after being purified by the chaotic energy, these five elements of energy actually evolved into the primal energies of the five elements.
Chaos energy could give rise to the primal energies of the five elements.
The Artifact God also learned of this fact and immediately announced cheerfully, “Qu Yi, you’re truly lucky. From now on, your five avatars won’t have to worry about primal energy anymore.”
Qu Yi smiled faintly.
