Chapter 0903: Pursuing Huang Long

Ye Hua and the thirteen members of Long Zhan chased after him like frenzied beasts, but to their shock, the Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron, driven by Huang Long, moved far faster than any of them.
After a while, the Cauldron broke through the space of this dimension and instantly entered another.
“Not good!” Ye Hua roared. “Hurry, intercept that kid!”
Yet by the time they broke through the space and entered the dimension Huang Long had gone to, he had already vanished.
“Damn it! Where did he go?! If I catch that kid, I’ll tear him to pieces!” Long Zhan growled, unleashing the Coiling Dragon Art. His light swept across the area, but still found nothing.
Ye Hua spun wildly, his eyes blazing as he pierced through one dimension after another, one time and space after another. But still—nothing!
Huang Long was completely gone!
A torrent of hatred surged in Ye Hua’s heart. His murderous intent solidified into a tangible force, causing layers of ice to form on the ground beneath him, spreading outward to cover mountains, lakes, and the entire land.
The disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect fell silent in terror.
“Brother Ye Hua, what should we do now?!” After a while, Long Zhan calmed himself down and spoke solemnly. He knew it would be difficult for them to find him, as the Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron, a sacred artifact of the highest rank, allowed Huang Long to conceal his presence with its grand array, making it impossible for them to detect him. Moreover, Huang Long’s own strength was abnormally high, his defenses formidable, and with the Chaos Bell and the Cauldron, even if they found him, they might not be able to withstand him.
Ye Hua’s murderous gaze gradually subsided, buried deep in his heart. He mused, “That kid won’t leave the Abyss of Chaos so quickly. I’ll report this to our master now and have experts from the Heavenly Dao Sect sent over. By then, he won’t be able to escape!”
Long Zhan said, “Good. I’ll also report this and ask our clan leader to send strong members over!”
Ye Hua’s eyes burned with fierce intent. “This time, we’ll trap him like a fish in a jar. I’ll make sure he can’t survive or die!”
Just as the two were about to report, the space suddenly twisted, and a white figure appeared before them.
“Senior Chi Rong!” The disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect were shocked upon seeing him and quickly stepped forward to pay their respects.
It was Chi Rong, who had been chasing Huang Long all along—the seventh disciple of the Central Sacred Lord, a peak warrior of nine eras, just one step away from entering ten!
Senior Chi Rong?!
The Coiling Dragon disciples, including Long Zhan, were also surprised and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Chi Rong’s status in the Heavenly Dao Sect is far higher than Ye Hua’s by a huge margin.
“Hmm, what’s going on? Ye Hua, what are you doing in the Abyss of Chaos?!” After asking everyone to drop their formalities, Chi Rong turned to Ye Hua with a calm tone that still carried supreme authority.
Ye Hua quickly replied, “Senior Brother Chi Rong, we learned that the Formless Demon Ancestor is hiding in the Abyss of Chaos. We originally came to capture him and bring him back to the Heavenly Dao Sect headquarters, but then—” He hesitated at this point.
“Speak up!” Chi Rong demanded.
“Yes, Senior Brother Chi Rong!” Ye Hua promptly recounted everything without hiding anything.
“Huh?! The Chaos Bell, the Sacred Cauldron of Heaven and Earth?! The Ancestor of Illusory Light is dead. I’ve been chasing him all the way to the Abyss of Chaos—it seems to be the same person!” After hearing Ye Hua’s words, Chi Rong murmured thoughtfully to himself.
“The Ancestor of Illusory Light is dead?!” Ye Hua and the others were shocked.
Chi Rong nodded. “Exactly. For now, we shouldn’t report this to our master.”
Ye Hua hesitated. “But—”
“What? Do you think I can’t handle this person?!” A glint appeared in Chi Rong’s eyes.
“We wouldn’t dare! How could we doubt Senior Brother Chi Rong’s strength?” Ye Hua and the others quickly replied.
Chi Rong nodded, then turned to Long Zhan and the others. “Help me capture this person, and you’ll surely be rewarded. If you report this to higher-ups and the elders of the Panlong Clan come, you won’t get any credit. What do you think?”
Long Zhan fell into deep thought before nodding. “Alright, we’ll follow Senior Brother Chi Rong’s plan!” Although Chi Rong was seeking their opinions, he knew they had no choice. Moreover, if they reported this, the elders of the Panlong Clan would arrive, and they indeed wouldn’t get any credit.
“Good. Then let’s split up and search now. That kid should still be in the central area!” Chi Rong said satisfactorily.
Thus, Chi Rong and the others divided into three groups to search for the being in the central region of the Abyss of Chaos. One group was led by Chi Rong, another by Ye Hua and six disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and the third by Long Zhan and seven disciples of the Panlong Clan.
While Chi Rong’s group was searching for Huang Long, Huang Long used the Sacred Cauldron of Heaven and Earth to descend ten thousand feet beneath the surface of a realm in the central area.
“If those disciples from the Heavenly Dao Sect and the Panlong Clan survive, they’ll likely report your whereabouts. Then, the Heavenly Dao Sect and the Panlong Clan will send strong fighters, and we’ll be in danger!” Emperor Zhong said worriedly.
Huang Long pondered for a moment before saying, “The Central Sacred Lord of the Heavenly Dao Sect and the Sacred Lord of the Panlong Clan won’t come. At most, they’ll send disciples or elders!”

Zhong Huang continued, “Even so, any strong opponent with over ten eras of experience is beyond our ability to match!”
“Don’t worry. In the central area of the Chaos Abyss, there are millions of realms, each one vast and vast, hiding powerful ancient demons and beasts. Even the strongest warriors from the two major factions wouldn’t dare to search thoroughly,” said Huang Long.
Immediately afterward, Huang Long set up one formation after another around the underground area. Only after ensuring safety did he activate the Sacred Cauldron Formation to alter the time in the Sacred Cauldron’s spacetime.
Huang Long wasn’t in a hurry to retrieve the treasures. What he needed to do now was to refine Tongbi Tiger Demon and WuXiang Demon Ancestor to boost his own strength.
Before refining them, however, Huang Long opened their spatial artifacts.
“So many ancient demons and beasts?!” When Huang Long first opened Tongbi Tiger Demon’s spatial artifact, he was shocked to find countless ancient demons and beasts trapped inside.
There were far more of these ancient demons and beasts than those he had collected in the various artifacts across the realms.
Immediately, Huang Long brought all these ancient demons and beasts into the realms, having the thirty-three artifacts and the Dragon Gate suppress and subdue them, transforming them into creatures within the realms.
After these ancient demons and beasts entered the realms, powerful willpower began to converge, doubling the willpower of the realms once again!
With a humming resonance, the realms became even more solid.
“Now, even if that Illusion Light Ancestor attacks the realms, they won’t crack like before!” Huang Long was pleased upon seeing the changes in the realms.
However, he soon encountered a problem.
For the trillions of creatures in the realms to converge their willpower to refine this artifact, an astonishing amount of spiritual energy was required.
Even the spiritual energy emitted by the World Tree at present was not enough to meet their needs.
