Chapter 69: Seclusion in the tower? My chaos begins to change!

In the Star-Gazing Tower, there is no time.

Lin Xuan sat cross-legged among the stars, his heart and mind completely sinking into his body. The medicinal power of the three-tenths of Soul-Condensing Creation Dew, although not complete, was still vast and pure, turning into warm currents that moistened the Chaos Soul Formation and the meridians of his whole body.

But unlike ordinary cultivators who simply absorbed medicinal power to consolidate their cultivation, Lin Xuan's cultivation at this moment carried more weight and realization.

The legacy of Dao Ancestor Hunyuan, the threat of the Lord of the Ruined Abyss, the destiny of the Children of Destiny, and his own positioning as a "variable"... these pieces of information echoed in his Dao heart like a great bell. He no longer viewed himself merely as a cultivator pursuing longevity, but more clearly realized the responsibility and karma he carried invisibly on his shoulders.

The operation of the "Nine Turns Chaos Scripture" also carried an unprecedented rhythm because of this. The Chaos Soul Formation pinched incantations, no longer passively absorbing, but actively, with a sense of examination and exploration, analyzing and understanding every bit of medicinal power rushing into his body, as well as the innate Dao rhyme permeating the surrounding starry sky.

"Chaos... inclusive of all laws, evolving all sentient beings. Then the vitality and creation Dao contained in this Creation Dew, the order trajectory contained in this star power, and even the destruction and chaos represented by the Ruined Abyss demon sense... can they all be used by me, integrated into this chaos of mine?"

A bold thought sprouted in his heart.

He did not rush for success, but started with what he was most familiar with. With a thought, the Star Core (Damaged) and the Nether Soul-Suppressing Order (Damaged) in the system space appeared in front of him again, floating to the left and right of the Chaos Soul Formation.

Following the method analyzed by the system before, he guided the chaotic spiritual power and communicated with both simultaneously.

The Star Core emitted gentle and pure starlight, and the Soul-Suppressing Order flowed with deep and peaceful Nether light. Under the harmonization of chaotic spiritual power, the two were no longer just resonating, but began to actively strip away a portion of the law fragments and origin auras they contained, merging them into Lin Xuan's Chaos Soul Formation!

This was an extremely slow and delicate process. The "order" and "purification" of the Star Core, and the "suppression" and "binding" of the Soul-Suppressing Order, were extremely high-level law powers. If it weren't for the fact that Lin Xuan's Chaos Dao essence was extremely high, and both had recognized him due to the homologous array, it would have been impossible to achieve.

The Chaos Soul Formation was like a greedy infant, cautiously absorbing and fusing these two completely different yet homologous forces. The chaotic air currents on the surface of the Soul Formation became more active, and inside, fine starlight and deep dark patterns were born and perished, making the aura of the Soul Formation itself become heavier and more profound.

He could feel that his control over "Star-Nether Light" was more handy, and he even faintly touched a deeper level of law truth regarding "sealing" and "purification."

At the same time, with the help of the dense star Dao rhyme and innate spiritual energy in the Star-Gazing Tower, the Chaos Soul Formation in his dantian was also growing steadily, becoming more solid, and both the total amount and quality of spiritual power were steadily improving, moving toward the peak of the early Soul Formation stage.

The three-day deadline passed in two days.

On this day, Lin Xuan was concentrating on his insights when the system prompt suddenly sounded in his mind:

【Ding! Detected that the host has accumulated more than 【X】 points of laziness, meeting the conditions for opening the special lottery "Chaos Roulette"! Do you want to open it immediately?】

"Chaos Roulette?" Lin Xuan's heart stirred, waking up from deep cultivation. After the system upgrade, there were indeed many new tricks.

"Open!"

【Command confirmed! Consuming 【X】 points of laziness, opening Chaos Roulette!】

In his mind, a massive, grey roulette phantom emerged. The roulette was divided into countless tiny grids with different lights, but the vast majority of the area was shrouded in mist and could not be seen clearly. Only a few grids pointed to by the pointer were clearly visible, with item phantoms and simple introductions floating on them.

The roulette began to rotate slowly, its speed getting faster and faster.

Lin Xuan held his breath and concentrated, although he didn't know what the roulette could draw, but with "Chaos" as the name, it shouldn't be too bad.

Finally, the roulette speed slowed down, the pointer passed several grids flashing with precious light (such as "Innate Qi," "Law Fragment · Space," etc.), and eventually stopped at a grey grid that looked quite simple, even a bit inconspicuous.

【Congratulations to the host, obtained special item: Dao-Deriving Cushion (Imitation)!】

With a flash of light, an old, ordinary-looking cushion woven from unknown grey grass stems appeared in the system space.

【Dao-Deriving Cushion (Imitation):??? (Rank too high, partial information missing). It is a replica of the ancient divine artifact "Dao-Deriving Cushion," although its performance is not one ten-thousandth of the original, sitting on it to cultivate can slightly improve comprehension, calm the mind, and there is a very low probability of entering a state of "sudden enlightenment." Note: It has a slight bonus for comprehending supreme laws such as chaos, space-time, and karma.】

Improving comprehension? Probability of sudden enlightenment? And a bonus for chaos laws?

Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with surprise! This was simply an artifact to assist cultivation! Although it was an imitation and the probability was extremely low, it was undoubtedly a timely help for him! Especially when he needed to comprehend the complex Chaos Dao at the moment!

He immediately took out the cushion, replaced the ordinary cushion under him, and sat down cross-legged.

As soon as he sat down, he felt a cool intent surging from the cushion into his sea of consciousness, as if his soul had been washed, becoming clearer and more agile. Some obscure points in his past cultivation seemed to be clearer now. His perception of the surrounding star Dao rhyme also became more keen.

"Good stuff!" Lin Xuan praised, immediately calming his mind, and with the help of the Dao-Deriving Cushion (Imitation), continued to immerse himself in cultivation and insights.

On the last day, he no longer absorbed external forces, but fully consolidated his gains and combed through his own Dao.

The Chaos Soul Formation sat in the dantian, its left hand raised slightly, starlight born and perished in its palm, evolving order; its right hand pressed lightly, Nether light circulating at its fingertips, expounding suppression; the chaotic air currents around its body inclusive and circulating, perfectly integrating the two. A kind of integrated, rounded, and free artistic conception flowed slowly on his body.

His cultivation was completely consolidated at the peak of the early Soul Formation stage, only a line away from the mid-stage. More importantly, his understanding of the Chaos Dao, especially the integration of "order" and "binding," had taken a solid step forward. Chaos was no longer just chaos and inclusiveness, but began to present an internal, dynamic balance and structure.

The three-day period was up.

Lin Xuan slowly opened his eyes, the chaotic color in his pupils retracted, deep as an abyss. He stood up, feeling the surging power in his body and a firmer Dao heart.

He waved his hand to take back the Star Core and the Nether Soul-Suppressing Order, and took a look at the Dao-Deriving Cushion (Imitation) under him, also carefully putting it away. This item should be used frequently in the future.

It was time to leave.

The starry sky of the Star-Gazing Tower slowly dissipated, the surrounding scene changed, and he appeared again at the entrance of the nine-story bronze ancient tower.

The tower door opened silently, and the aura of the outside platform surged in.

Lin Xuan took a step out, his gaze like electricity, sweeping toward the outside of the platform.

He knew that taking this step would mean being placed on the cusp of the storm again. The turmoil of the Soul-Condensing Creation Dew was not yet over, the transaction with the Heavenly Secret Pavilion was completed, the threat of the Ruined Abyss demon sense was looming, and the gazes of various forces were focused...

But he was no longer the him of three days ago.

Chaos has begun to change, and the Dao heart is firm.

He would come to break through the wind and rain of this Mystical Realm, and even the catastrophe of the future!
