I, Suiren, will teach Ziyi how to make stockings.

At the same time, his body once again emitted a faint white jade luster, but this time, his body did not resist. Instead, it actively welcomed the invasion of the power of thunder and lightning, and continued to temper his internal organs and eight extraordinary meridians.

"Come again!" After a moment, Ye Chongren gradually adapted to this force and stretched out his hand again to grasp another chain.

The power of the second chain was even stronger, causing his body to tremble again involuntarily, and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead.

A night passed quietly in agony and perseverance. Ye Chongren spent a full night adapting, his movements becoming stiff and slow. Finally, he fastened the chains around himself, then frantically reached out to grab the third chain.

"Husband... don't do this anymore. Improving your strength can't be rushed!" Hou Tu couldn't remember how many times she had dissuaded Ye Chongren. Her voice was full of worry and heartache.

But Ye Chongren didn't listen at all, his eyes were full of determination and firmness. Hou Tu knew that for Ye Chongren, time was everything.

Only by becoming stronger at all costs can you have enough strength to survive in the next battle and reduce the sacrifices of your men.

Therefore, he did not dare to stop for a moment, even though every tempering was like hovering on the edge of life and death.

"Four..." Several hours passed, Ye Chongren gritted his teeth, trembling all over as he grasped another chain.

"Five... six... seven..." In this way, Ye Chongren tied the chains on himself one by one. With each additional chain, the pain he endured increased exponentially, but he never gave up.

"The ninth one!" Ye Chongren's eyes were red and bloodshot, and his body, which was originally as hard as jade, was now covered with cracks.

At the same time, a drop of golden liquid appeared in his heart, emitting a mysterious and powerful aura.

"I've already endured nine lightning chains. No need to hide! Come out!" Ye Chongren roared, and the Samsara Realm instantly released nine chains. Like a frightened python, the chains quickly withdrew. Then, a heavy wheeze emanated from the depths of the calamity cloud. The sound seemed to come from an immense beast, carrying with it endless pressure.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, a giant thunder beast emitting golden light slowly emerged from the calamity clouds. Its body was so huge that every step it took made the void tremble.

"I knew it. I swallowed a Ten Thousand Dao Source Frog when I was undergoing the tribulation before, and now a thunder beast appears. Interesting!" Although there was a greedy light in Ye Chongren's eyes, he knew that with his current strength, it was almost impossible for him to swallow this thunder beast.

"war!"

Before the Thunder Beast could react, Ye Chongren struck first. His eyes shone with determination and fearlessness as he unleashed a punch that seemed to contain boundless power. The entire space enveloped by the calamity clouds was distorted by the blow. Wherever his fist passed, space rippled like wrinkled paper, but quickly returned to its original state.

"boom!"

Ye Chongren threw a straight punch, hitting the Thunder Beast solidly. The Thunder Beast was knocked back several steps by this punch. It shook its head, and murderous intent instantly boiled in its light blue eyes. Just as it was about to retaliate angrily, it found that the robbery cloud was quietly dissipating.

Filled with resentment, the Thunder Beast took a step back and was about to charge forward, but it was too late. As the calamity clouds dissipated, its body gradually became transparent and eventually disappeared.

After the calamity clouds dissipated, the remaining spiritual energy spread like disintegrating smoke. Ye Chongren greedily absorbed this spiritual energy, feeling the power constantly gathering and strengthening in his body.

"Is this the power of a Half-Step Lord?" Ye Chongren clenched his fists fiercely, his eyes sharp as lightning, and his aura became deeper and more powerful. The moment the calamity clouds dissipated, Ye Chongren's strength was further enhanced, and his aura underwent a drastic change. It was not just an increase in strength, but a transformation in the power level.

From this moment on, Ye Chongren officially left the ranks of Hunyuan Wuji Daluo Jinxian, transcended the highest combat power in the prehistoric world, stepped into the threshold of the dominance realm, and became a half-step dominance.

The moment he reached Half-Step Domination, his body underwent another astonishing transformation. The sea of ​​divine power, already expanding countless times, unexpectedly split into two layers, each guarded by a Myriad Origin Monument, emitting a mysterious and powerful light. Ye Chongren couldn't yet fathom the impact of this change, so he simply ignored it.

Afterwards, he perfected the formation within Honghuang City and prepared to head to the Ferocious Beast Tribe. After all, he was not only the Lord of Honghuang City, but also the Beast Emperor of the Ferocious Beast Tribe. He had responsibilities on both sides and could not show partiality.

"Let me test the power of a Half-Step Lord!" Ye Chongren's eyes were filled with excitement. Relying solely on his physical strength, he fiercely kicked the ground. In an instant, the formation of Honghuang City appeared and distorted.

Ye Chongren disappeared from the spot in an instant like a ghost, soaring into the sky. It was unknown how long it took before he landed on the ground.

Between the alien race and the fierce beast race, there was a vast area. This was a vast forest, like a natural dividing line, separating the fierce beast race from the alien race, dividing the entire middle section of the Upper Heaven Origin Land into two, forming a buffer zone between the two sides.

It is said that this area was left behind after the war between the two sides, which left both sides severely weakened. After the ceasefire, the mutual distrust allowed this vast area to be preserved.

The vastness of this place was beyond imagination. Even Ye Chongren, who had already entered the Half-Step Domination Realm, found it difficult to cross it quickly.

In desperation, he had to return to the location of the alien formation and teleported to the Xiongye through the formation.
