A few days later.

Su Chen was almost flying with swift steps.

To be fleet-footed in the storm of the middle section of the Mother River, just how terrifying is that?!!! 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

If Di Jie were to see this, he’d probably be so scared his Dantian would explode.

In the middle section of the Mother River, even he, Di Jie, could only stay for a few breaths, and that was with the consumption of various treasures.

Many times, Di Jie longed for a way to linger in the middle section of the Mother River for a bit longer to find some crystals, but unfortunately, it was just a pipe dream, impossible to achieve.

Compared to Su Chen.

There’s no time to cry.

Not only was Su Chen fleet-footed, but his body’s defensive power had reached a level where it could withstand the storm in the middle section of the Mother River, and now, he didn’t even have any superficial wounds.

He swiftly swept across area after area, collecting a thousand pieces of Crystal of the Mother River almost every few breaths.

Then, these crystals transformed into strength.

Increasing his strength at the speed of a rocket.

Truly frightening.

A few days later.

The entire middle section of the Mother River was devoid of Crystals of the Mother River.

Over these few days, Su Chen devoured a total of thirty-four million nine hundred thousand pieces of Crystal of the Mother River.

What does that mean?

These thirty-four million nine hundred thousand pieces of Crystal of the Mother River, if given to the Imperial Family members, could directly nurture over a hundred top-level experts above the fifth level of the Human Lord Realm in a short time.

Yet, Su Chen devoured thirty-four million five hundred thousand pieces alone.

"With all means deployed, my pure strength can reach a trillion Dragon’s Force!!!"

This was the greatest harvest.

Without mentioning other things, just a trillion Dragon’s Force coming down is enough to kill a Martial Cultivator at the Ninth Level of the Human Lord Realm effortlessly, without using any fist techniques, swordsmanship, intent, or weapon.

"My Mysterious Qi Realm has also reached the first level of the Human Lord Realm, skyrocketing!"

"And then there’s the Divine Mansion, although the Chaos Divine Mansion hasn’t continued to advance, it’s grown substantially."

The growth of the Divine Mansion brought invisible benefits, such as faster operation of the chaotic currents created, more purity in the chaotic currents created, faster conversion speed of the Three Powers, deeper refining by the Divine Mansion itself, and so on.

Anyway, as long as the Divine Mansion grows, the enhancement in Su Chen’s strength is immense.

"Jiuyou, what do you think of the level of my strength now?" Su Chen smiled and asked out of curiosity.

"Under the Divine Lord, whether Half-Step Divine Master or others, you can crush them easily." Jiuyou responded.

"And facing a true Divine Lord?"

"Hard to say. The crossing of Great Realms is fundamental. Your current strength against the true Divine Lord first level, you stand a fifty-fifty chance. Against the true Divine Lord second level, surviving is considered good."

"Is that so?" Su Chen was a bit surprised; he initially thought his strength had reached the third or even fourth level of the Divine Lord Realm. It seems he overthought it.

"By the way, Young boy Su, from today onwards, you should change the way you calculate power. Dragon’s Force is not much of anything now; you’ve roughly crossed to Divine Lord level, which is about the Grand Cosmos World level, where the unit of power measurement is Chaotic Power. Ten trillion Dragon’s Force is equivalent to one Chaotic Power."

Su Chen’s mouth twitched.

So his proudest strength is just a mere thousand Chaotic Powers?

As if sensing Su Chen’s speechlessness, Jiuyou chuckled: "A thousand Chaotic Powers is quite a lot. In the younger generation of the Grand Cosmos World, anything below a thousand Chaotic Powers doesn’t count as hitting rock bottom."

"But my thousand Chaotic Powers was gained by Three Powers Transformation, borrowed strength from the Heavens Stars Great Array, Ancient Soul Ancestral Vein, borrowed Power of the Tide, and Old Dragon’s Power, etc."

"Young boy Su, do you think other people’s power is entirely their own?" Jiuyou sneered: "Which monster or genius doesn’t possess various means?"

"Alright." Su Chen rubbed his nose.

Just then, Iceflame Vermilion Bird transmitted sound: "Boy, are you ready? If you are, then you must enter the Maternal River Rear Section alone."

"You’re not coming in?" Su Chen asked curiously, somewhat puzzled.

"This god won’t go in."

"Why?"

Iceflame Vermilion Bird first fell silent, then after a few breaths, somewhat awkward and furious: "Why do you have so many questions?"

The reason it didn’t enter was that its Physical Strength couldn’t sustain it.

Actually, at present, though Su Chen’s Physical Strength was immensely terrifying, it was still not as good as Iceflame Vermilion Bird, but Su Chen had a trait even more undying than the undying, immortal one.

Even though the defensive power of Iceflame Vermilion Bird surpassed Su Chen, due to the difference in recovery speed, entering the Maternal River Rear Section means Su Chen is likely to survive, his Physical Strength continues to enhance, while Iceflame Vermilion Bird might die.

However, even Iceflame Vermilion Bird had no confidence to walk in the Maternal River Rear Section, but it had confidence to open the Boundary Gate between the Maternal River Rear Section and the middle section for Su Chen.

"Boy, remember, the deepest part of the Maternal River Rear Section has the Heart of the Mother River. The Heart of the Mother River is a Supreme Treasure that you must obtain. Also, once you enter the Maternal River Rear Section, immediately lie down, consume the Life-and-Death Reversing Pill, and only after it’s fully absorbed, attempt to get up and move. When you can walk, first, collect and absorb all the Crystals of the Mother River in the Maternal River Rear Section, enhance your strength, and finally find the Heart of the Mother River. Remember, once you obtain the Heart of the Mother River, the remaining middle and rear sections of the Mother River will explode, so prepare mentally and don’t die in the explosion stream."

Iceflame Vermilion Bird slowly instructed.

Su Chen nodded heavily: "Thank you."

"Next, it’s all up to you, boy, don’t die. As for this god, first exit the Mother River to find Fei Jin, if nothing unexpected happens, there is still more than half a month left until Fei Jin and the Young Master of Hu Family’s wedding. You must keep track of time yourself, if the time passes, boy, you’ll regret it for a lifetime, even if you achieve supreme strength."

Su Chen’s expression became solemn: "I understand."

"However, boy, you don’t need to worry too much. Anyway, you possess a portion of this god’s Life Soul, and can communicate at any time. Regarding everything with Fei Jin, this god will remind you, and won’t let you miss the time."

"Thank you." Su Chen expressed gratitude once more.

"Alright, no more nonsense. Prepare yourself and enter the rear section." Iceflame Vermilion Bird appeared before the Boundary Gate.

Su Chen also appeared before the Boundary Gate.

Then.

Under Su Chen’s surprised gaze, Iceflame Vermilion Bird’s tail opened like a peacock displaying its feathers, colorful, radiating halos, those halos were so terrifying that even the storm of the middle section of the Mother River feared and dared not approach.

Following this, Iceflame Vermilion Bird let out a fierce roar: "Gather for me!!!"
