The Chaos Beast sensed a presence and looked up. It was currently fighting a God realm cultivator. As soon as it saw Chen Jie, its eyes widened and it ran away. Chen Jie used a single hand and grabbed the spine of the Chaos Beast. He dragged it over to him and Zhou Fan.
The Chaos Beast self-destructed without even fighting back. Chen Jie backed up and let Zhou Fan handle the mist.
Zhou Fan entered, and a minute later the mist was gone. Although the mist was far denser, it was the same size as before.
Zhou Fan instantly recovered multiple levels, but it was not quite enough.
At this time, a god realm Chaos Beast descended on Chen Jie. It was intelligent, making it a fight on the same realm with an intelligent Chaos Beast.
Looking around, it took multiple true gods to fight a single God Realm Chaos beast due to them almost all being at the 1st level of the realm.
However, Chen Jie was not intimidated.
Chen Jie raised his hand and took a step forward. The intelligent God Realm Chaos Beast was sent flying away. Although it wasn't injured, Chen Jie's only goal was to heal Zhou Fan.
He instantly killed a few more inner world realm Chaos beasts and let Zhou Fan start the process of absorbing the mist.
The god realm Chaos Beast soon came back, and Chen Jie began to fight.
Away from Zhou Fan and Chen Jie, Chaos was single handedly fighting against Ying Xiong, Progenitor Ke, Pangu, Lu Wei, and Heaven.
Yao Mun was a new addition, but he was currently at the 1st level of the True God realm due to just being reborn. Although he contributed greatly, he could not direct the flow of the battle.
Heaven and Ying Xiong were the main fighters. Leaf occasionally weakened a powerful attack.
Chaos was annoyed, but that was all. Every step it took rained down Chaos Qi. Chaos Qi was simply too powerful.
"Why start a war so soon after the last one. Are you beginning to get impatient? Perhaps you're covering for something? Since you all even added a new fighter, then something must indeed be up."
While fighting, Chaos began to look around the battlefield. He first noticed Chen Jie. He was worried that when Chen Jie grew up, he may actually end up defeated. Luckily, he had his means to survive. It's not as if he had never lost before.
Not only had he lost in the past, but even the World Tree had lost. Multiple times throughout the years, the World Tree was pushed back. There were even times before the World Tree itself was strong enough to do a thing.
Although Chaos was powerful, he could not fully look at everything while fighting with so many powerful beings.
He had looked over Zhou Fan completely.
"Fine. Whatever you have, I'll see later."
No more talking took place, and all focus was on fighting. Besides Zhou Fan's fight against the Cosmic Dao, this was one of the greatest fights of all time. The full force of the entire universe was against the Chaos Beasts.
Ten minutes after Chen Jie killed ten inner world realm Chaos Beasts, Zhou Fan absorbed all the mist.
He felt a faint connection with his body. He was close.
"Ten more." He said.
In the endless battle with countless sounds, Zhou Fan's was like a flies buzz. Only Chen Jie, who was focusing on him, heard him.
He pushed back the God Realm Chaos Beast and instantly killed ten more inner world realm Chaos Beasts.
Zhou Fan began to absorb them. Ten more minutes quickly passed. In a battle involving gods and true gods, ten minutes was absolutely nothing. Zhou Fan could have taken ten years without anything changing.
However, this was all he needed.
For the first time in a long time, Zhou Fan's soul entered his body. In an instant, a pressure appeared that covered the entire occupied universe, which was the Zhou filament.
All battle's ceased, and Chaos's eyes widened in horror. Although he couldn't move, he finally noticed Zhou Fan from the corner of his eyes. He knew who it was at a glance.
The Origin God had returned.
Suddenly, the pressure lessened a bit. It was still enough to prevent any movement, but it was weaker. Then, it weakened again.
The strongest True Gods, such as Ying Xiong, Heaven, and Chaos could move, but they could feel an overwhelming power that they were helpless against.
Once again, the power lessened. They could move freely, while normal True Gods and Chen Jie could now move as well.
Then, it lessened again. Even Gods could move. Finally, the pressure lessened one more time.
Everybody on the battlefield could move, but everyone was looking at Zhou Fan. Everybody here recognized him.
Zhou Fan spoke, and the overwhelming silence heard him.
"Inner World realm, huh. Lower than expected."
He had recovered and gained his body, but he was only at the Inner World realm.
Chaos let out a huge sigh of relief. "The Origin God returned. I almost died of shock. Luckily, it means nothing now. Even the Origin God can't fight a true god at the Inner World realm. Much less me."
Many in the battlefield felt disappointed, while the Chaos Beasts were relieved. The Origin Gods return was horrible news, the worst possible, but at least they had time.
Chaos let out a roar. "We must destroy the World Tree here and now! Before the Origin God recovers! Fight!"
All Chaos Beasts charged without regard for their life.
Zhou Fan looked at the battle above. There were two options for him.
He could either cultivate for about ten minutes and reach the god realm, or go fight now.
Chaos seemed to look over that Zhou Fan was the most talented person in not only history, but all of cultivation itself. Simply put, talent was how close someone was to being like Zhou Fan. A higher talent meant that a person was more suited for the path of cultivation, a path created by Zhou Fan for Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan did not truly have meridians because meridians were only an attempt to be more suited for cultivation.
Now, although he could almost instantly break through, or perhaps even simply take away Chaos's cultivation, he wanted to fight.
