Primordial Harem System

The forming second core began to pulse irregularly, drawing in vast amounts of energy from his 366 dantians.

This chaos was not disruptive; rather, it forced the core to adapt and grow stronger, tempering it against potential instability in future breakthroughs.

The interplay of harmony and chaos created a dynamic cycle of destruction and rebirth, enhancing the core's resilience.

The surrounding air crackled with intensity, and a faint shadow of a chaotic storm seemed to swirl around Shen Yuan's body.

The Purity Physique came into play next, its effect subtle yet profound.

The Qi flowing into the second core underwent a transformation, its impurities stripped away entirely.

What remained was pristine, flawless energy, enhancing the quality of the forming core to a level that defied convention.

The core began to emit a faint glow, its radiance resembling a flawless gem—a testament to its unparalleled refinement.

"Even the best alchemist of this world couldn't refine something as pure as this," Shen Yuan muttered, his voice filled with quiet pride.

Finally, the Chaotic Vessel Physique activated, focusing its power on the other 365 dantians within Shen Yuan's body.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

As his Primordial Vessel Art circulated Qi to and from these reservoirs, the immense strain of the process was eased from the other dantians.

The chaotic energies within each dantian were stabilized, preventing any imbalance that could disrupt the breakthrough.

The Chaotic Vessel Physique acted as a stabilizing anchor, ensuring that his entire body remained in perfect equilibrium.

The chamber trembled slightly as the combined power of his physiques reached their peak.

The second core in Shen Yuan's main dantian began to rotate, its glow intensifying as it drew on the refined energy of his entire being.

The vortex in his dantian suddenly collapsed inward, and the second core crystallized into existence.

Its surface shimmered with countless colors, reflecting the myriad intents and elements that had gone into its creation. Beside it, the first core pulsed rhythmically, the two cores resonating in perfect harmony.

The energy within Shen Yuan surged as his cultivation advanced to the First Level of the Extreme Origin Core Realm. The combined potency of his two cores created an aura of unmatched strength, reaching a height he couldn't have anticipated.

Shen Yuan opened his eyes, his expression filled with excitement. His body felt lighter, more powerful, as though he had ascended from his mortal shell into a higher existence.

[Yuan'er, you've done it,]

Yue Lan's voice echoed in his mind calmly.

[Two cores of this quality… haha, if the people in your world found out, they might give up on cultivation and become farmers. Even the prodigies of the ancient past can't be compared to you.]

Shen Yuan raised his eyebrow. "Are there really no one in history who can compete with my foundation?"

[No, of course, there are. And a lot of them. I was just talking about the humans—you stand at the peak of what humanity can achieve.]

"Hoh? Then what are these high and mighty beings who have a foundation better than mine?" Shen Yuan asked, finding it hard to believe someone could have a foundation better than what he already had.

Yue Lan slowly said, emphasizing each word,

[Pre-Natal Chaotic Lifeforms, entities born directly from the primal Chaos before the establishment of order. They existed before the formation of Heaven, Earth, and the natural laws.]

Shen Yuan's interest was piqued as he leaned back slightly, his aura still resonating faintly from his recent breakthrough. Find adventures on empire

'Was that being in my dream a Pre-Natal Chaotic Lifeform?'

His sharp eyes gleamed with curiosity as he focused on Yue Lan's voice, which carried a profound weight, as though she were speaking of something beyond mortal comprehension.

"Pre-Natal Chaotic Lifeforms?" Shen Yuan repeated slowly, his tone calm but intrigued. "Entities born from the primal Chaos? I've read about them before, but please explain further. Let's see how different they are from what I read."

Yue Lan continued speaking in a calm tone, as if the Pre-Natal Chaotic Lifeforms were not a big thing at all.

[Yes. Before the establishment of order, before the division of Chaos into Heaven, Earth, and the myriad laws, there was only the Primal Chaos. From that Chaos, certain beings were birthed—entities of pure, unbridled power, unrestricted by any laws or limitations.]

Shen Yuan furrowed his brows slightly, trying to grasp the scale of what she was describing. "If they existed before the formation of laws, what kind of power did they wield?"

[Power that defies understanding,]

Yue Lan said with a faint sigh.

[These beings didn't cultivate. They didn't refine their strength through methods or techniques. They were power itself—pure embodiments of the chaotic essence. They could shape the cosmos with a thought, create or destroy laws, and wield energies that mortal cultivators cannot even fathom.]

Shen Yuan nodded slowly, processing her words. "If they were so powerful, what happened to them? Why don't they rule over existence now?"

Yue Lan's voice shifted, a sharp edge creeping into her usually calm tone. It was laced with both reverence and accusation, as though the subject stirred something deeply rooted within her.

[What happened to them, you ask?]

she began, her voice steady but growing in intensity.

[When Pangu, the mightiest of all Pre-Natal Chaotic Lifeforms, reached the zenith of his strength, he grew dissatisfied with the eternal void of Chaos. In his pursuit of supremacy, he challenged the very essence of the Primal Chaos itself—and every other Pre-Natal Chaotic Lifeform that dared to stand against him.]

Shen Yuan's brows furrowed. "Pangu… He's the one said to have split the heavens and the earth, isn't he? I've read myths, but it seems the truth is far more… violent."

[Violent is an understatement,]

Yue Lan replied, her voice carrying the weight of ancient memories.

[Pangu's ambition led to a war unlike any other, where Chaos itself was the battlefield. The very fabric of existence trembled as titanic beings clashed, each embodying aspects of Chaos that defy mortal comprehension—Time, Space, Life, Death, War, Creation, Destruction, Annihilation, and even concepts far beyond your understanding.]

Her tone grew more accusatory as she continued.

[In the end, Pangu emerged victorious, declaring his supremacy over all Creation. But his victory was not enough for him. To cement his rule, he wielded his unparalleled strength and split the Chaos itself, forming the Three Thousand Great Worlds, along with Heaven, Earth, and the Abyss.]

Shen Yuan's eyes narrowed as he processed her words. "So, the realms we know today exist because of him? He imposed order on Chaos, forcing it into submission?"

[Exactly,]

Yue Lan said, her tone filled with a mix of admiration and bitterness.

[But his actions came at a cost. The natural laws he birthed became shackles for the Pre-Natal Chaotic Lifeforms. Some faded into obscurity, unable to adapt to the structured worlds. Others, unwilling to be bound, were sealed by the laws that Pangu's actions set in motion. And then there were those who adapted—they became the progenitors of myriad races, their essence diluted but their legacies enduring.]

Shen Yuan's gaze turned thoughtful, his voice calm but probing. "You speak as if you witnessed it yourself. How do you know so much about this? Were you… there?"
