Chapter 1312: Upgrading the Territory! Chaos Divine Treasure!

Chapter 1312: Upgraded Territory! Chaotic Divine Treasure!

Zhou Zhou wasted no time, instantly flying out of the divine palace and ascending into the sky above the Jiaoyang Imperial Capital, gazing down upon the sprawling metropolis below. In silence, he whispered the word: "Ascend."

The next instant—

The 80 million meg units of fundamental materials, the 1,000 upper-divine mid-level divine crystals, 20 million source crystals, 40 billion units of temporal-space elemental gems, and the 10 upper-divine mid-level territory decrees vanished without a trace.

A textual prompt appeared.

[Congratulations! Your lower-divine palace (Master Rule) of upper-divine rank has successfully ascended to an upper-divine mid-level palace (Master Rule)!]

[Your territory has successfully been upgraded to an upper-divine mid-level territory!]

[Your upper-divine lower-level divine essence derivation array has been upgraded to an upper-divine mid-level divine essence derivation array.]

[Territory stone pillar durability has been enhanced to: 200 meg / 200 meg!]

[Your territorial expanse has expanded to 200 billion km × 200 billion km × 200 million meters!]

[All Red Fog monsters have been expelled from the newly acquired territorial boundaries!]

[Red Fog will no longer appear within any of your territorial domains!]

[You have received an upgrade reward: Mythic Architecture Blueprint Box (Upper God Mid-level)!]

[Lord's Talent Prompt: Your Red Mother Nests can now be upgraded!]

[Lord's Talent Prompt: Your Enigmatic Trade Caravan faction has been strengthened!]

[Lord's Talent Prompt: The divine personnel of your Life Ark have been enhanced!]

Zhou Zhou nodded slightly.

At last, his territory has reached Upper God Mid-level.

Then, instead of upgrading the Summoning Gate, He immediately turned to the requirements for upgrading to Upper God Senior-level territory.

[Building Upgrade: 50 million meg-units of wood, 50 million meg-units of fine sand, 50 million meg-units of metal, 50 million meg-units of stone, 1,000 Upper God Senior-level divine crystals, 50 million source crystals, 5 billion units of time elemental gems, 5 billion units of space elemental gems, 10 Upper God Senior-level regional territories, 10 Upper God Senior-level deities, 500,000 race heroes, and 10 Upper God Senior-level territorial decrees!]

"Upgrade can continue!"

After reading the message, Zhou Zhou's face lit up with sudden delight.

Without hesitation, He immediately spent another 20,000 basic units of Jing material, 1,000 upper-tier god-grade divine crystals, 50 million source crystals, 10 billion units of time-space element gemstones, and 10 upper-tier god-grade territory permits, upgrading the territory to an upper-tier god-grade territory!

A text prompt appeared.

[Congratulations! Your upper-tier god mid-level temple (Master's Law) has successfully advanced to an upper-tier god high-level temple (Master's Law)!]

[Your territory has successfully been elevated to an upper-tier god-grade territory!]

[Your upper-tier god mid-level divine energy derivation array has been upgraded to an upper-tier god high-level divine energy derivation array.]

[Territory stone pillar durability has increased to: 500 million / 500 million!]

[Your territory's domain has expanded to 50 billion km × 50 billion km × 2 million meters!]

[All mist monsters within the newly added territory domain have been expelled!]

[The Crimson Fog will not appear within any of your territories!]

[You have received an upgrade reward: Mythic Building Blueprint Box (Upper God Tier)!]

[Lord's Talent Hint: Your Crimson Nest can now be upgraded!]

[Lord's Talent Hint: Your Enigmatic Trade Caravan faction has been enhanced!]

[Lord's Talent Hint: The divine personnel of your Life Ark have been strengthened!]

"Upper God Tier territory."

"Only one step away from True God Tier territory."

Zhou Zhou took a deep breath and murmured to himself.

Then, suppressing his eagerness, he opened the upgrade requirements needed to ascend to True God Tier territory.

[Building Upgrade: 1000 yuans of wood, 1000 yuans of fine sand, 1000 yuans of metal, 1000 yuans of stone, 10,000 True God Tier divine crystals, 1,000 million source crystals, 10 units of Chaos Divine Treasures, 10 True God Tier regional domains, 10 True God Tier divine beings, 1 million race heroes, and 10 True God Tier domain mandates!]

Zhou Zhou glanced at the upgrade requirement. As soon as he saw the first line, he couldn't help but draw in his breath.

"Wow."

"Four jia units of basic materials."

"Such an absurd requirement."

He muttered to himself.

Ten thousand million is a wan; ten thousand wan is a yi; ten thousand yi is a zhang; ten thousand zhang is a jia!

The use of 'jia' as a unit alone proves just how immense this number truly is!

Most lords, let alone possessing it, probably have never even heard of it.

"Good thing I'm not some ordinary lord."

"Four jia units of basic materials? To me, that's child's play."

Zhou Zhou thought to himself.

The myriad races he had conquered—could casually produce four yao units of basic materials.

All the lower divine god ranks—lower divine god crystals, source crystals, regional territories, lower divine god spirits, race heroes, and lower divine god domains—were already within his grasp.

Only one thing remained: ten units of Chaotic Divine Treasure.

Zhou Zhou hadn’t even heard of it—let alone possessed it.

"Chaotic Divine Treasure?"

Zhou Zhou looked puzzled. "What is that?"

No one answered his question.

Yet Zhou knew exactly who to ask.

He produced the Bodhi Master and inquired:

"Bodhi Master, do you know what Chaotic Divine Treasure is?"

"Known."

"Tell me."

Zhou Zhou asked immediately.

"An official opportunity to resolve a question."

Bodhi, the Supreme, spoke calmly.

"Alright!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhou immediately agreed without hesitation.

For a treasure vital to establishing the Divine Realm, he would be willing to pay any price.

Upon hearing this, Bodhi the Supreme spoke:

"The Chaotic Divine Artifact originates from the Chaotic Wasteland, born from a being known as the Chaotic Divine Demon, condensed within its own body."

"The Chaotic Deity and Demon is a special creature born from the residual will of the Chaotic Wasteland."

"Only by defeating the Chaotic Deity and Demon can one extract the Chaotic Divine Treasure from within its body."

Chaotic Wasteland?!

Zhou Zhou was startled upon hearing this.

Wasn't that the homeland of Yingning—the last sanctuary where the remnants of the Chaotic Human Race had taken refuge?

He didn't dwell on it long and immediately asked:

"What is the strength of that creature?"

"The uniqueness of the Chaotic Deity and Demon lies precisely here," said Bodhi Master with a smile. "Its power does not stem from itself, but from the enemy that challenges it."

"If the enemy possesses the strength of a Supreme God, then this Chaotic Deity and Demon will likewise attain the strength of a Supreme God."

"If His enemies led an army of a trillion to attack Him, He would spontaneously create a trillion chaotic monsters to fight them together."

"If His enemies were merely an ordinary person... sorry, chaotic deities are at the very least true gods."

"Such an enemy?"

Zhou Zhou stared in astonishment.

He had never encountered an enemy like this before.

"Where exactly is the Chaotic Wasteland?"

Zhou Zhou asked again.

The location of the Chaotic Wasteland, Yingning surely knew, so there was no risk of being unable to find it.

All he needed to do was, upon arriving in the Chaotic Wasteland, locate the chaotic deities there.

The Chaotic Wasteland was vast beyond measure, far exceeding the size of the great thousand-world realm.

If one were to rely solely on personal search for the Chaos Deity and Demon, it would likely take a month or two—perhaps even longer—to find them at all.

"The Chaos Deity and Demon will not appear of their own accord. Without a suitable method, no matter how thoroughly you scour the entire Chaos Wasteland, you will never find them."

"There is only one method by which one can locate them."

"And that very method is precisely why He is worth a formal inquiry into a riddle."

"You possess the Lost Chaos Ritual Cauldron, and you still remember the rites of the Chaos Ritual Canon?"

Bodhi, the Supreme, asked.
