The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 678: Negative teleportation

Not far from the battle between Cain and Zinir, there was an arc of dark lightning constantly clashing against massive mountains, moving hundreds of times faster than the speed of light. The lightning arc destroyed those structures with a single move, but another would replace them the next second.

Facing the strongest warrior of the Collapsing Lightning Alliance was none other than General Casidius. The Hell Clan God showed absolute focus as he could barely keep the Collapsing Lightning Duke at bay even with the God Towerʼs energy enhancement. If the distance between the two were to be reduced too much, he might die.

The Collapsing Lightning Dukeʼs eyes were sharp as he clenched his fists and destroyed another of the mountains. A normal mountain could do nothing to the True Titan, but the ones fired by Casidius were spells that harness the power of the Law of Earth. Each mountain was incredibly durable and carried a weight that did not fall short of a small meteorite.

Although his eyes beamed with killing intent, the Collapsing Lightning Duke had no sense of urgency. Once he arrived at the Trinity Dark Towers and saw how the weaker soldiers were escaping while the strongest stood in the sky, he chose against the use of the 81 Deus Behemoth Heaven Suppression Formation.

That decision was not out of a sense of mercy, as there was no room for such emotion in war, but out of objectivity. If they used the 81 Deus Behemoth Heaven Suppression Formation, they would just force the strongest warriors in the Inferno Daemon Invasion Army to escape sooner, leaving the weaker soldiers behind.

The lives of hundreds of thousands of Wave Warriors and Wave Champions were not worth dozens of supreme wave crystals in the mind of the Collapsing Lightning Duke.

The goal was just to push the Inferno Daemon Invasion Army out of the Golden Core Sector, and while it would be great if they could kill Apotheosis or Divine Ascension Masters in the process, there was no need to risk their lives for that.

All the great generals came to the same conclusion as the Collapsing Lightning Duke. They attacked with all their power but focused on preserving their lives and just draining the power of the Inferno Daemon Gods.

...

While the Inferno Daemon Gods focused on the retreat of their soldiers and the Collapsing Lightning Alliance Titans in draining the power of the God Towers, none of them knew what was happening thousands of meters beneath them.

An imposing figure stood on the lowest level of the primary God Tower of the Trinity Dark Towers. It was a young man nearly three meters tall with a constitution fitting of a member of the Abyssal Clan, yet his skin was red, and there were Hell Clanʼs horns on his head.

If Cain were to see this person, he would immediately recognize him as one of the few individuals who could incite his instincts to scream after obtaining the Power of Order.

This figure was none other than the seventh son of the Dark Emperor of the Inferno Daemon Empire, Horus Ekleipsis.

Despite being at the lowest level of the God Tower, Horusʼs eyes seemed to be able to pierce through the wall and see the battle going on in the sky, yet no one was able to notice him. His gaze focused on the Collapsing Lightning Duke for a moment before turning to Cain, and a sharp light appeared in them.

”Who would have thought I would see you again so soon and in this place.”

A small smile appeared on Horusʼ face as he focused on Cain and remembered the young member of the Hell Clan, Kain Lauzer, whom he met in the Kronos Continent. Back then, he had suspected the relationship between the duo, but Cainʼs acting abilities were too good, and since he had more important matters at hand, he just ignored him.

”Had I killed you back then, it would have been much easier.”

While those words seemed to carry regret, Horusʼs face was perfectly calm, as if it did not really care about Cainʼs effect in the war and was simply stating a fact.

”It doesnʼt matter since everything is still going according to plan.”

After that, Horus took his eyes away from the sky. He showed no concern for what was happening or cared about which side would win. His focus turned to the madman hitting the walls of his cell with all his power.

”An ego overwhelmed by fear and rage. Who would have thought you, the worst of the ten, would become so useful.”

Horus uttered those words with a smile before waving his hand and opening the cell. As soon as he did that, the Blood King flashed toward him like a maddened beast, his mouth open as if intending to bite.

Although the formations in the dungeon could suppress the energy pool of the Blood King, he was still a very powerful Astral Cultivator and could still crush a normal Divine Ascension Master with his bare arms.

However, just as the Blood King appeared before him and was about to bite his neck, Horusʼs eyes glowed, and his hands grabbed the face of the Dark King before blasting him into the ground.

A flash of sanity seemed to appear in the eyes of the Blood King as he felt the overwhelming physical power in the hands of the man. He attempted to free himself, but Horus was able to keep him down without using a single shred of energy.

Horus smiled as he saw the Blood Kingʼs futile attempt to free himself, and a dark flame appeared in his eyes.

”You cannot resist the weight of fate.”

Although they were simple words, the Blood King detected in them an intent that made the fear in his heart grow more and more potent.

Horusʼs smile widened, and then the power in his eyes burst as a flaming shadow covered him and the Blood Duke.

”Negative teleportation.”
