The Chaos Pearl, together with the Tear of Eternity, suppressed the chaotic energy inside the Tear to prevent it from erupting, then converted the chaotic energy into absorbable tear beads, transforming it into tear beads for various-grade treasures.

Many of the beads that had previously become utterly dull began to restore their luster.

Previously, to allow Tianji to break through, the Green Emperor Puppet had expended some of its origin;

now, with the supplement of chaotic energy, it was rapidly recovering to its peak state.

Unfortunately, the puppet could not be further enhanced—no matter what it had been at the start, the highest it could recover to was its original peak state.

As for those raw materials, even the tiniest grains began to grow under the infusion of chaotic energy.

One by one, the raw materials seemed to turn into mineral veins, naturally sprouting and expanding.

With this, materials were no longer scarce for Su Yuan;

as long as he obtained a sample, he could get an endless supply of materials.

Material costs dropped sharply for him. What he needed now were stronger supreme treasures, more types of Law Root Qi, and more powerful artifacts.

“Fine, how could treasures be that easy to get? In that case, I’ll just make them myself!”

Su Yuan’s creation rule could now take effect.

He took out some materials and began fulfilling an order for a Great Power’s gate.

Taiyi Sage Lord’s demand was for a long sword. The Taiyi rule contained the ultimate truth of yin and yang;

forging such a supreme treasure was extremely difficult.

Su Yuan spent half a Yuan Assembly and, with ringing diligence, fully refined it.

During the forging, his comprehension of the Taiyi rule directly reached the consummate level;

he only lacked a sliver of Taiyi Law Root Qi to attain enlightenment—a fortuitous gain.

The final product was a high-quality lower-grade Acquired Supreme Treasure, bearing seven bindings.

“Amazing. The first time I forged a supreme treasure, I actually produced a high-quality piece!”

Su Yuan exclaimed in admiration.

Driven by this lower-grade Acquired Supreme Treasure, Su Yuan’s creation rule immediately leapt forward;

his insight rapidly rose to the late Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal tier.

Su Yuan was stunned: “The creation rule improved this fast?”

He continued forging supreme treasures.

One treasure after another rolled off his workbench rapidly;

the time required steadily decreased—from sixty thousand years down to fifty thousand years—and it kept falling.

The quality of each treasure also slowly climbed, from seven bindings gradually rising to nine bindings, though his creation rule remained at the late stage.

But his foundation had become much more solid.

Finally, after forging one hundred Acquired Supreme Treasures, his creation rule reached the peak of the Hunyuan Great Luo and even arrived at the consummate level, placing him only one step away from breaking into the Tai Chi Realm.

That step, however, was extremely difficult—unless he could forge a Heavenly Dao-level Treasure.

But if he didn’t break into the Tai Chi Realm, how could he forge a Heavenly Dao-level Treasure?

To raise the creation rule to Tai Chi Realm, he needed to forge a Heavenly Dao-level Treasure.

It was a deadlock.

But that problem applied to others.

Su Yuan possessed the Tear of Eternity;

he could temporarily wield Tai Chi Realm power, which naturally included the power of creation.

With that ability, he could forge a Heavenly Dao-level Treasure and then use it to propel his creation rule upward!

However, before that, he needed a high-level material for forging a Heavenly Dao-level Treasure, and he currently lacked such materials.

He couldn’t help but look at the horn atop the Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Tianji’s head—this horn seemed like it could serve as the primary material for a Heavenly Dao-level Treasure.

A chill suddenly rose in Tianji’s heart, and he looked at Su Yuan with a wary gaze.

Su Yuan awkwardly turned his head and took the opportunity to observe the creatures inside the Divine Kingdom worlds.

Previously, nine Divine Kingdoms had evolved into great worlds;

the beings here had grown for many years, and some of the strong ones had already reached the Great Luo Golden Immortal tier.

These beings had no idea they had been living inside a supreme treasure all along, yet they had deduced the existence of a Creator. All the strong ones respected the Creator deeply and often prayed to Su Yuan.

From the river of time, Su Yuan saw the countless life changes of these beings and felt the whims of fate;

his creation law naturally broke through to the creation rule level.

Su Yuan wanted to further extrapolate the creation rule, but someone outside sought him.

Su Yuan opened his eyes.

The Immortal Lord and the Demon Lord had already returned to the Void Islands.

As soon as the two of them appeared, they immediately came to Su Yuan.

“Leave! Get out of this God Realm Sea immediately!” the Immortal Lord urged anxiously.

The Demon Lord also spoke with a grave expression: “Hurry!”

He sensed both of their auras had suffered considerable disturbances;

the Demon Lord had actually lost an arm, and it still hadn’t recovered!

“What did you do?” Su Yuan frowned.

The Immortal Lord gave an embarrassed smile: “We originally thought we had entered a ruin, so we tried to take all the treasures inside the ruin.”

Su Yuan instantly felt a sense of foreboding.

“We didn’t expect it was the secluded place of a Tai Chi Realm expert. Those relic treasures were someone else’s collection! After we took the treasures, we alerted them and were pursued!” the Immortal Lord coughed.

The Demon Lord, furious, said: “We came in incarnations—our incarnations are much weaker than the original. Otherwise, for a mere Tai Chi Realm being to try to defeat me would have been impossible!”

Just then, a shout came from outside the sky!

“There’s actually a place here hidden by a Heaven-Secret Veil—is that you? How long do you intend to hide? Return the treasures to me!”

The voice brimmed with intense displeasure.

The Immortal Lord said: “Then have my true body sent over!”

Su Yuan waved his hand and said, “Hand over the treasures you took and I’ll keep them temporarily. You can teleport back to the God Realm Sea for now—consider it safely pocketed.”

The two hesitated.

“You think I’d swindle that petty sum from you?” Su Yuan shot them a look.

The Immortal Lord and the Demon Lord exchanged glances, then handed the looted treasures to Su Yuan.

Everyone’s expressions were strange.

Many were resentful;

their plundering had just begun and had been disrupted by the Demon Lord and Immortal Lord.

Su Yuan immediately acquired thirty-seven resource parcels;

most were rare Tai Chi Realm materials, not finished products.

But these materials were extremely important treasures for Tai Chi Realm cultivators.

Seeing these materials, Su Yuan’s eyes lit up—this was exactly what he needed.

At that moment, a sharp beam of light tore through the sky, ripping open the concealment of the Void Islands. A Creator-level deity strode in.

That deity was surrounded by ten thousand laws;

countless stars glittered among its hair, and within each star was an entire plane where abundant life survived, reproduced, and grew.

Zhuyuan Great Emperor, the Immortal Lord, and the Demon Lord—three Tai Chi Realm existences—all wore solemn expressions.

Although they were incarnations, they could feel the other party’s strength. Compared to a typical early-stage Tai Chi Realm, this being was several times stronger—the mark of a very seasoned Tai Chi Realm powerhouse.

“Are we clear to leave?” the Immortal Lord asked urgently.

“Not yet!” Su Yuan smiled faintly.

Beneath his feet, an exotic beast appeared out of thin air and carried Su Yuan upward.
