Andrew Scott couldn’t help but laugh and said, “I was just saying, how could it really be the Art of Chaos? It’s probably just a secret technique. As you said, the Divine Art is a legendary technique that can only be cultivated at the tenth level of Chaos. Although there are quite a few Children of Chaos in the Eastern Wasteland, over ninety percent of them remain stuck at the first level their entire lives, unable to make any progress, relying on their first-level comprehension or recovery for a slight advantage... Treasures imbued with Dao Rhythms are incredibly precious. Every time such a treasure appears, it inevitably leads to fierce battles, with even the top three realms of the Longevity Six Realms personally taking action. Therefore, those with higher Chaos levels are either sect leaders or elders of holy lands. If an ordinary person only has a high Chaos level but lacks powerful cultivation, they would have long been captured and tortured by those great sect leaders or holy land elders, forced to reveal the method to open their Chaos Shrine, and have their Chaos level ‘inherited’ by force... Even if a tenth-level is ‘inherited,’ it would still be at least fifth-level. Many elders’ Chaos levels are below the fifth level.”

“Could it be that his Chaos level was also inherited from another Child of Chaos?”

Ethan Brooks speculated.

“That’s impossible! The Divine Art is a technique for the tenth level of Chaos. As far as I know, the current highest Chaos level in the Eastern Wasteland is the Sect Master of the Profound Gate of Creation, Dao Xuan Yi, who is only at the sixteenth level. If he were to have a tenth-level Chaos level right after inheriting, the one being inherited from would have to be at least at the twentieth level. There isn’t a single such person in the entire Eastern Wasteland.”

After speaking, Andrew Scott stood up: “Miss, there’s no need to worry too much. As for Brian Foster, I will deal with him personally. You should focus your mind on awakening your bloodline. It’s not worth wasting your energy on someone who is about to die.”

Ethan Brooks nodded. She also felt she was overthinking things, and bowed slightly: “This matter must be handled in secret, so I’ll be relying entirely on you, Mr. Scott.”

Chapter 10: Investigation

“Primordial Heaven Sect...”

Brian Carter walked along the mountain path outside Yunhuang City, carefully recalling every detail about the Primordial Heaven Sect.

The Primordial Heaven Sect was one of the top ten holy lands in the Eastern Wasteland, ranking quite high, and was a leader among the second tier of the top ten holy lands.

Among the ten holy lands, the Profound Gate of Creation was the undisputed number one sect, dominating the Eastern Wasteland with its overwhelming power and influence, with strong cultivators everywhere within the sect.

Next was the Limitless Sword Sect.

The Limitless Sword Sect inherited the Killing Sword Dao from before the shattering of the Divine Desolation Land. Although it had declined, the various spiritual treasures and sacred artifacts passed down from the Killing Sword Dao still made the Profound Gate of Creation, which sought to unify the Eastern Wasteland, wary.

Below that, the third place was disputed—some said it was the Primordial Heaven Sect, others the Heaven and Earth Holy Land, and some recognized the Six Paths of Gods and Demons. In addition, the rapidly rising Divine Firmament Sword Sect was also included. These four sects made up the second tier of the top ten holy lands.

As for the next group—Faluo Sect, Golden Crow Sect, Azure Lotus Sword Sect, and the Dragon Mountain Range—since they lacked supreme experts of the Saint Six Realms, even if their development and potential were not inferior to any sect outside the Profound Gate of Creation, their prestige was still half a notch below the previous six holy lands.

The Kingdom of Lorraine was one of the twenty-four countries under the Primordial Heaven Sect, with moderate national strength. While it couldn’t be said to be overflowing with experts, every major city had a Blood Exchange Grandmaster stationed there, and in the top-tier cities with populations in the millions, there were even Longevity Six Realms experts with awakened bloodlines. From this, one could infer the strength of its ruler, the Primordial Heaven Sect...

“Mortal Six Realms, Longevity Six Realms... The first realm of the Longevity Six Realms is Awakening, the second is Sword Qi, and the third is Condensing Gang. These three are the first three realms of the Longevity Six Realms, also called the Lower Three Realms. Above them are the Unity of Spirit and Qi Realm and the Azure Nether Realm, both of which qualify one to be an elder in any of the top ten holy sects, and finally, the pinnacle of the Longevity Six Realms—the Manifestation Realm... Dong Qian awakened Sword Qi at twenty, refined Sword Gang at thirty, so by thirty he had reached the Condensing Gang Realm. Beyond that... Sword Origin, Sword Momentum, Domain, Shattering the Void, and so on—these clearly do not belong to the Longevity Six Realms, but are higher realms... It seems I need to carefully study the various mysteries of the ‘Chaos Shrine’ to see how it earned Dong Qian’s high regard.”

With this thought, Brian Carter split off a portion of his mind to outline and activate the Chaos Technique. Instantly, that mysterious feeling of the world before its separation, of primordial chaos, surged into his mind.

With a spiritual level of thirty-one, multitasking was not difficult for him.

Soon, Brian Carter found himself in that vast, white space.

The space was monotonous, as always.

Brian Carter glanced around and quickly noticed something. Focusing his mind on a certain point in the white space, the next moment, it was as if a great door had been pushed open. The surroundings changed abruptly, and he found himself inside a massive shrine.

The shrine was extremely tall—looking up from within, it was still over a hundred meters high. The interior was spacious, like a small city, easily accommodating a hundred thousand people. On both sides of the shrine, thousands upon thousands of figures hurried back and forth, making the shrine appear quite bustling.

“It seems there are quite a few ‘Children of Chaos.’”

Brian Carter wandered through the shrine for a while, finding this phenomenon quite understandable.
