Chapter 1644: War Summary!
Upon hearing this, Spring's Law Master did not hesitate—his voice was immediate and unyielding. "Third brother, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"You want to cultivate? Just go ahead and do it."
"I'd actually love for you to come closer to me—hahahaha…"
The closer Zhou Jiuxi got to him, the more he could tap into the vast cosmic fortune flowing through Zhou Jiuxi's body, drawing in even greater rewards. Thus, Spring's Law Master was not only indifferent to Zhou Jiuxi's intentions—he even wished for Zhou Jiuxi to stay longer within his Universal Chaos Sea.
"Thank you, second brother."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jiuxi offered a faint, gentle smile, then immediately subdued his aura and plunged into the Universal Chaos Pool.
He had not brought any soldiers along, so he had no intention of provoking the great sea kings or sea emperors dwelling within the depths of the pool. Not out of fear, but simply because he didn’t wish to waste time on such monstrous beings.
All he truly desired was a quiet place where he could diligently cultivate, swiftly elevating the chaotic human lineage into a true Chaotic Heart Body.
And if there exists a place most suited to the cultivation of the Chaotic Human race's bloodline, it would undoubtedly be the ocean's abyssal depths.
The Ocean's Abyss!
This is a place deeper than the very lowest layer of the ocean within the Universal Chaotic Pools—beyond the fissures that tear open at the base of the sea itself. Within these endless chasms, there is not a single spark of light, the environment utterly dark and formless, so profound is the void that even the Supreme Gods might struggle to discern their way.
Even more critical is the fact that any sea creature capable of surviving in these abysses possesses power at the very least of Supreme God level. Deep-sea fish emperors of the Unconquerable Will stage are not rare—they are common. And among the mightiest of all the fish emperors in the Universal Chaotic Pools—the Deep Abyss Fish Emperors, whose will has transcended the bounds of existence—these very beings dwell here.
With Zhou Shi-jiu's current strength, encountering such Deep Abyss Fish Emperors would mean certain death. Though Zhou Shi-jiu is merely a fragment, he is still formed from half of Zhou Zhou's primordial essence. Thus, neither Zhou Zhou nor Zhou Shi-jiu would willingly risk their lives in such a place.
Fortunately, while the Ocean Abyss is the domain of Deep Abyss Fish Emperors, their numbers are few. Even according to Chunqiu's Law Master's knowledge, there are only three such emperors dwelling here.
The space of the Ocean Abyss is vast, and even the Deep Abyss Fish Emors cannot fully command or comprehend it.
As long as Zhou Jiuwai carefully concealed his own aura and found a remote place to meditate in silence, under normal circumstances, he would almost certainly go unnoticed by these deep-sea fish emperors.
At this moment, Zhou Jiuwai had already entered the state of 'King,' allowing his willpower to sweep across the entire oceanic abyss. Should he encounter beings that were not to be provoked, his will would simply bypass them, avoiding detection altogether.
After carefully searching for a while, Zhou Jiuwai finally located a suitable place for seclusion and cultivation.
It was the domain of deep-sea fish emperors, surrounded by three sovereigns of supreme will residing in the vicinity. They ruled a realm of the highest divine tier, four-stage, though the number of fish kings, deep-sea fish kings, and deep-sea fish emperors was small, each one a master of unparalleled strength.
Zhou Zhan employed a technique of aura suppression, pressing his own presence to its absolute minimum, and then entered this territory, finding a cave and stepping inside.
Only after confirming that none of the three sovereigns of supreme will had detected him did he begin to search through the inheritance of the chaotic will within his mind.
This inheritance, originating from the Chaotic Will, was currently accessible only to the lower tier of supreme will and the lower tier of supreme will due to his own strength.
Originally, Zhou Zhan had felt somewhat uneasy, uncertain whether he would find the bloodline cultivation method he sought within this inheritance.
Yet when He found this inheritance, he sighed with relief.
Then He began to examine it carefully.
The name of this inheritance was straightforward—*The Chaos Body Technique*. By following the methods outlined, one could further elevate the primordial bloodline of the Chaos race, progressing until reaching the state of a Chaos Body, ultimately capable of attaining the lowest tier of Supreme Will Realm Chaos Body.
The subsequent content would only begin once Zhou Zhou, the original self, had elevated his own cultivation to the lowest tier of Supreme Will Realm.
Zhou Jiuxi saw this and nodded in satisfaction.
As long as he could practice it—nothing more.
Regarding the later cultivation techniques, He was certain that within no time at all, the original self would reach the lowest tier of Supreme Will Realm. Then, naturally, he would know the methods of further cultivation. Thus, Zhou Zhan had no worries.
He then set up a low-tier Supreme Will Realm array around him, to prevent any external presence from detecting the unusual cultivation phenomena occurring here.
Then He began to practice according to the teachings of *The Chaos Body Technique*.
As Zhou Jiuxi cultivated, the chaotic matter within the abyssal ocean swiftly detached from the seawater, flowing toward him through his three thousand divine orifices, gradually integrating into the very fabric of his body.
As time passed, it became evident that more and more chaotic matter was gathering around Zhou Shi-jiu, eventually coalescing into a massive, pulsating cocoon radiating an intense aura of chaos. A steadily growing heartbeat echoed from within the depths of the cocoon...
Pong!
Pong!
Pong!
...
The heartbeat rang on without cease.
Transformation had begun!
By the shore of the Universal Chaos Pool.
Chunqiu, the Master of Law, gazed downward at the strange phenomena of Zhou Zhan's cultivation, his lips parting in quiet astonishment.
Though Zhou Shi-jiu had made every effort to conceal his cultivation traces, to Chunqiu's eyes, he remained utterly exposed.
At first glance, it was clear as day.
"My third brother seems to have good fortune."
Chunqiu, the Master of Law, observed for a moment, then smiled gently. "It's a transmission of will transcendence level."
"Such a transmission—despite me and Tiancheng, the God of Punishment, having been the highest gods at the fourth rank—we only had a handful of them at most."
He shook his head with a smile, unmoved.
To him and Tiancheng, the God of Punishment, only transmissions from the realm of eternal immortality stirred desire.
A transmission of will transcendence?
At best, it offered some reference value for their future paths.
Nothing worth risking a move for.
Moreover, Chunqiu, who possessed countless treasures within the Universal Chaos Pool spanning myriad realms, had no interest in seizing the transmission on Zhouzhou's body.
He withdrew his gaze, continuing to focus on his fishing.
Time flew by swiftly.
Night.
The Capital of the Radiant Sun.
Within the Palace of Cycles.
Zhou Zhou was staring at the war summary report before him.
Through the joint efforts of five battlefronts—the Front of the Supreme Continent, the Front of the Ultimate Void Cosmos, the Battlefield of Tianjun’s Corpse, the Crimson Cosmos Front, and the Ancient Continent Front—statistics have shown:
The Radiant Sun Nation has today gathered approximately 25 sisters' worth of fog hearts, source crystals, skill books, equipment, and basic materials.

On the front of infiltration:
Today, Zhou Zhou’s various clones successfully infiltrated through the two techniques—“Mofei Wangchen” from Rate of Soil and “Heaven’s Mandate Son”—resulting in a total infiltration of 231 Ci, 2387 Jing soldiers, 8123 Billion, 3471 Wan, 8927 deities, 1431 Billion, 2371 Wan, 4289 true gods, 258 Wan, 3467 primary deities, 1231 supreme deities, and 512 near-ultimate will-grade entities.
Additionally, the lords of the Star Alliance infiltrated 8121 Jing soldiers, 3411 Billion, 4891 Wan deities, over 4500 million true gods, and 52,311 primary deities!
Finally, regarding divine ascensions:
Today, a total of 3413 Zhao, 3489 Billion, 2371 Wan, 4237 legendary upper-tier soldiers ascended to become lower-tier deities.
Furthermore, 1434 Billion, 3471 Wan, 3497 upper-tier deities advanced to become lower-tier true gods!
Another 1.813 million 34,511 human-tier Supreme Deities and 8.125 million 5,411 non-human-tier Supreme Deities have sensed their own Supreme Deity-level bottlenecks and have applied to enter the Palace of Cycles for closed meditation and cultivation, in an attempt to transcend the Supreme Deity realm!
Moreover, 371 Deities above the Supreme Deity level have also sensed their ascension bottlenecks and, today, are preparing to enter the Palace of Cycles with the intention of ascending to the first-tier Supreme God!
Finally, 7 beings at the Precursor to Supreme Will level have reached the absolute limit of Will-Transcendence and are preparing to enter the Palace of Cycles tonight to ascend to the lower-tier Supreme Will level!
Originally, Zhou Zhou's forces consisted of 582 yao 2687 jing 3476 zhao 3247 billion 3483 million 9891 soldiers, 612 zho 8243 billion 1839 million 7607 Deities, 743 billion 53 million 1819 True Deities, 6.37 million 8780 Supreme Deities, 988 Supreme Gods, 89 Precursor to Supreme Will-level beings, and 3 Supreme Will-level beings!
Now, with the newly recruited Deities and the five Supreme Gods and fifteen Supreme Deities recruited from the Chaos Secret Realm, the strength under Zhou Zhou's command has grown to 814 yao 3497 jing 8238 zhao 3281 billion 3478 million 1293 soldiers, 4.026 zho 4733 billion 6812 million 4242 Deities, 3608 billion 5895 million 9605 True Deities, 9.01 million 4603 Supreme Deities, 2,219 Supreme Gods, 606 Precursor to Supreme Will-level beings, and 3 Supreme Will-level beings!
After reviewing this, Zhou Zhou's face lit up with astonishment, his breath quickening involuntarily.
"Seven beings at the Precursor to Supreme Will level, aspiring to ascend to the lower-tier Supreme Will level?!"
"Only two such beings yesterday."
"Seriously."
"Even without counting future ascensions, if they all succeed, the number of Supreme Will-level beings under my command will reach nine!"
"There are barely fifty supreme beings of the highest will across the entire Supreme Grand Cosmos."
"My underlings of supreme will will account for nearly one-fifth of the entire Supreme Grand Cosmos by tomorrow."
"Exaggeration."
Zhou Zhou sighed, reflecting on it.
And deep within his consciousness, he sensed something—this was merely the beginning.
With the unparalleled destiny talent, the sole dominion of the Supreme Rank, he could later offer various paths of supreme will cultivation, even ascension beyond will.
With these inheritances and additional enhancements, the probability of his subordinates achieving the rank of supreme will would only grow stronger.
One day in the future, the total number of supreme will beings under his command might even surpass the total number of such beings within the Supreme Grand Cosmos—something that seemed not only possible, but inevitable.
The mere thought of such a future stirred within him a quiet, uncontainable anticipation.
It took a long while before Zhou Zhou regained his composure.
He shook his head and glanced at the other entries in the war summary.
Though the battlefield within the Yellow Springs Domain had now concluded, it had been succeeded by an even more perilous and immensely rewarding conflict on the Ancient Continents.
Thus, the total number of his five major battlefronts remained unchanged.
Moreover, the most striking difference in today's war summary was that among His spoils, several artifacts of transcendent will had appeared.
These, naturally, were the result of His supreme dominion talent—Supreme Fate—the only master-level talent of the highest tier.
Normally, this should not be possible.
For His master talent, Supreme Fate, was merely of the highest tier among master-level talents, theoretically capable of yielding only spoils of supreme will.
Yet now, it not only produced spoils of supreme will, but also artifacts of transcendent will—of the singular transcendent level—something entirely unexpected.
To this, Zhou Zhou specifically inquired of Bodhi Master.
Bodhi's answer also resolved Zhou Zhou's confusion.
"If you're given merely a simple, non-hierarchical, sole master talent, it wouldn't make much difference to you—much like receiving no reward at all."
Bodhi lounged lazily. "You've already achieved the rank of Fourth-Class Supreme Saint Body. When you elevate your Supreme Saint Body to the level of Supreme Will, you'll naturally ascend this Supreme Fate Master talent on your own."
"So why would the Supreme Will bestow upon you a reward that you could easily attain yourself within a short time?"
"Who knows—some might think the Supreme Will is stingy."
"Therefore, to truly reward you generously, even though it only elevated your Fate Emperor to the non-hierarchical, sole tier, it also infused this Master Talent with a touch of Will Transcendence power."
"Exactly that Will Transcendence power enables you, when possessing the Supreme Fate Master Talent, to have a chance of yielding loot at the Transcendence Tier."
"But, well…"
Bodhi paused here, and said nothing further.
"But what?!"
Zhou Zhan quickly asked, his voice filled with urgency.
How could this person speak so abruptly?
Stopping precisely at the most critical moment.
"The Supreme Will has only granted you a mere whisper of will transcending power."
"Therefore, the probability of you dropping a will-transcending-tier item is extremely low."
"You may see the probability listed on your lord's talent panel as high, but in reality, the actual chance of you dropping a will-transcending item or a transcendent holy artifact is far, far lower."
"That is precisely why, despite your subordinates having slain so many supreme will-tier masters, only one will-transcending holy artifact—the Eye of Seduction—has ever been obtained."
"If you wish to drop more transcendent artifacts, you must increase the quantity."
"The more supreme deities or supreme will-tier enemies you defeat, the greater the number of transcendent items or artifacts you will inevitably yield."
