[You look toward the Immortal Ancestor, eyes filled with tears. The Power of Prayer from billions of living beings across the myriad worlds of Chaos gathers from all directions. You seem to understand everything: the will of chaos seeks to slaughter all life, but as the saying goes, 'The Great Derivation is fifty, yet one escapes.' The collective will of the living beings in this Chaos era has preserved the final spark of life.]
["In the name of Yun Wuji, I ignite my own Dao Fruit and merge with the will of chaos!"]
[With a long cry, you actively ignite your limitless dao fruit. Your Divine Soul and Physical Body transform into a brilliant stream of light, heading straight for the will of chaos. The backlash from the will of chaos strikes like a tidal wave but is blocked by the power left by the Immortal Ancestor. Your stream of light merges into the will of chaos, engaging in an ultimate struggle against that cold power of control.]
[The surviving beings kneel and weep, their cheers shaking the heavens and earth.]
[And you drift in that boundless sea of Chaos consciousness. In your ears are the lonely echoes of Chaos born over billions of years; before your eyes is a cold tableau of the birth and death of countless eras.]
[The will of chaos attempts to erase your self and assimilate you as part of the Origin. However, the pursuit of the Dao from the Dao Ancestor's Legacy, the wish for freedom from the Immortal Ancestor, the entrustment of protection from your Master, and the hope of billions of beings all transform into your Dao Heart, fighting incessantly within the will of chaos.]
[An unknown amount of time passes—perhaps a moment, perhaps eternity. Using yourself as an anchor, you deeply engrave the rule 'All beings may seek the Dao' into the core will of the Chaos Origin.]
[The tremors of the Chaos Origin gradually subside. The darkness disperses, the fires of tribulation are extinguished, and the shattered world is slowly repaired under the nourishment of the Light of Creation. The myriad worlds of Chaos regain their light.]
[When you open your eyes again, you are formless and substanceless, yet omnipresent. Above the Chaos Guixu, the Creation Sword Light that pierced the heavens has dissipated. The Immortal Ancestor's spiritual consciousness has completely merged into Chaos, becoming the purest Origin nourishing all things. As for the two newly condensed Incarnations of the Darkness Forbidden Master and the Primal Calamity Master, the moment they touch you, they lose all their malevolent aura and transform into two streams of pure Law light. With a gentle wave of your hand, you Seal them at the two poles of Chaos—one becomes 'Eternal Darkness,' representing the silence and gestation of Chaos; the other becomes 'Primal Fire,' representing the vitality and succession of Chaos.]
[They are no longer the Calamity Masters of world destruction, but the guardians of the new order of Chaos.]
[In an instant, the raging Chaos storms quietly subside, the extinguished stars light up again, and the broken worlds slowly heal under the nourishment of the Origin.]
[Lin Feng stands atop the Lingxiao Palace of the Heavenly Court, gazing at the formless figure deep within Chaos. His eyes are tearful yet full of awe. He raises his hand and swings his sword, proclaiming to the myriad worlds in the name of the Heavenly Emperor: 'From this day forth, Chaos has no shackles, and Transcendence has no Restrictions! All our living beings may freely seek the Dao and enjoy eternal peace!']
[Above the sea of clouds at the Xuantian Dao Palace, Li Taiqing stands for a long time. 'Senior Brother, Junior Brother Lin... he has become the sky of Chaos.' Jiang Hao's voice is hoarse, yet filled with endless pride.]
[The will of chaos still exists, but it has lost its former control and violence, becoming peaceful and inclusive. It no longer interferes with the path of living beings seeking the Dao, nor does it block the steps toward Transcendence. This is because its core has already merged with a Soul named Yun Wuji, and with a Dao Heart of protection and freedom.]
[From then on, within Chaos, there are no Restrictions and no shackles. All beings can seek the Dao, and all Powerful Experts can achieve Transcendence. The path to the other shore of the Hongmeng Sea is open to all beings who harbor the Great Dao in their hearts.]
[The Xuantian Dao Palace still stands amidst the clouds of the Immortal Realm. Lin Feng has entered the Limitless Primordial stage and governs the Heavenly Court, guarding the peace of the Immortal Realm. Li Taiqing, Jiang Hao, and the other fellow Disciples have also successively achieved Breakthroughs to the Limitless Primordial stage, becoming guardians of the myriad worlds of Chaos.]
[All living beings call you the 'Limitless Chaos Grand Venerable' and regard you as the guardian deity of Chaos. Only the Disciples of the Xuantian Dao Palace still stand above the sea of clouds on that day every year, bowing and calling out: 'Limitless Ancestral Master.']
[Simulation Ended]
[Evaluation: You abandoned your Dao Fruit to protect all beings and merged with Chaos to establish balance. You are the Chaos Chosen One—not just for self-cultivation, but for the benefit of all worlds!]
[Rewards Obtained: Power of Chaos Origin, Immeasurable Chaos Karma, Transcendence Dao Beacon, Eternal Dao Heart.]
The simulation ended, and another Disciple had sacrificed himself heroically.
Han Xuanji was not too surprised. From the moment the will of chaos awakened, he had guessed this Disciple's final fate.
Person of Tribulation.
In their original fates, both Jiang Hao and Su Ming had died in the tribulation.
He hadn't expected that even after Yun Wuji reached the peak of Chaos and was almost at the point of Transcendence, he still didn't survive this tribulation.
The Dao Ancestor was a bit smarter than Yun Wuji, choosing to avoid the tribulation directly.
As for himself, he was no different from previous simulations. Adhering to the philosophy of 'better a Fellow Daoist die than oneself,' he had no intention of saving the world and had achieved Transcendence early on.
"I can only say, as expected of me..."
Han Xuanji didn't know whether to be happy or sad. He also understood why the Dao Ancestor hadn't taken many people into Transcendence; it turned out he was afraid of the will of chaos awakening.
And in their previous transaction, his allowing the Juntian Merchant Venerable to achieve Transcendence might have also laid some groundwork.
"However, did the Immortal Ancestor get lost in the River of Time and Space?"
Han Xuanji pondered silently, having gained quite a lot of useful information.
Perhaps he could try to give the Immortal Ancestor a hand; it could add a top-tier combat power to his side.
As for the Juntian Merchant Venerable, that guy was open to question and could be set aside for now.
Han Xuanji thought for a moment and looked at the main event: the simulation rewards.
These were rewards that had cost him almost all his simulation attempts—pure sweat and hard work!
The first reward: [Power of Chaos Origin: The Origin power of ultimate Chaos Laws such as Destruction and Creation. It is the beginning of everything, the fundamental essence of Chaos, and the most primal force that constitutes Chaos.]
"Now this is good stuff."
Han Xuanji nodded inwardly, his heart racing.
The Three Thousand Great Daos all originate from the ultimate Laws of Chaos.
One must realize that the Daos Cultivators spend their entire lives comprehending are merely branches and echoes of the ultimate Laws of Chaos. Even after achieving Limitless Primordial, compared to this power, they are but a drop in the ocean.
The ultimate Laws of Chaos are the underlying Laws that constitute Chaos, and they are the Origin powers that living beings, by normal logic, cannot control.
Entities like the Darkness Forbidden Master and the Primal Calamity Master only control a single ultimate Law of Chaos, yet a single strike from them can shatter an ordinary Limitless Primordial existence. This is the Innate Origin power of Chaos, not a simple power boost. Only a being at the Perfection of the Limitless Primordial stage, like the Immortal Ancestor, can contend with it.
"As expected of the System, to even be able to manifest something like this for me."
Han Xuanji felt a sense of awe toward this power.
Even at the Late Stage of the Limitless Primordial realm, he was still shocked by the System's power. Through normal means, unless Chaos were destroyed, it would be impossible to extract this Origin power.
And the second reward was even stranger—another reward born from the System's great might.
