The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 824: The Scarlet King vs the Humanoids of Dark Sky (I)

Physical Realm cultivators must also achieve a harmonious balance and immense strength in both body and internal energy, creating a solid foundation capable of harnessing the power of the soul and advancing to the Soul Realm.

In Aether, the First Rank of the Soul Realm is the Divine Ascension Realm, where cultivators harness the power of their soul and fuse it into their Sacred Organ, allowing their cultivation to express a power that goes beyond the limits of the flesh, reaching a whole new realm.

The Essence Evolution Path of Power uses the soul to form an Inner World. On the other hand, the Astral Rebirth Path of Power fuses their soul into their Rebirth Heart, transforming the Sacred Organ into a tool capable of stealing the power of the stars.

Cain had made sure to engrave all that knowledge in his mind. For someone like him, who cultivated Essence Wave and Astral Wave, it was imperative to have a clear route forward. He needed a path capable of synergy between his two Paths of Power, fusing physical might and the Laws.

After finishing analyzing his own body, Cain turned his eyes to the surroundings. A sharp light appeared in his Space-Time Eye, and he was able to detect how the power of the Law of Space had fully integrated with the earth and sky of this area.

The Codex of Infinite Pathways described how something like this could happen to the terrain if the power of the Space Tribulation were high enough. This place had become a haven for those who train in the Law of Space, as they would get twice the results with half the effort. It was even better than the grotto Cain used in the Deus Behemoth Empire, and this one covered the entire border.

Of course, it was not just training that was easier in this place. Cain focused, and the Space-Time Eye exploded with power as he calmly raised his arm and waved his hand.

The powerhouses of the Godslayer Humankind Empire and Inferno Daemon Empire were still in a trance at the majestic sight of the phenomenon covering the sky and earth and the man standing in the middle of it when suddenly they saw how this one waved his hand.

It was a simple motion, yet the next second, the sky began to split apart, and everybody saw with utter shock how a portal appeared above the Scarlet King. A portal connected two points in space, similar to teleportation, but multiple people could use the first without a problem, making it much more valuable.

It was impressive to see the Scarlet King form a portal with such ease, relying only on his power and nothing more. The powerhousesʼ shock grew as they saw a massive dark fog covering the earth and sky on the other side of the portal.

A solemn light appeared in the Godslayer Humankind powerhouses as they gazed at the Dark Fog. They had already heard of it and the entities inside, but it was the first time they saw it with their own eyes, and even the Collapsing Lightning Emperor could not help but clench his fists due to the phenomenonʼs sinister and evil aura.

”Alchemy-Sword King. Protect the area, and do not let anyone touch even a single rock.”

Cainʼs voice was cold and stern, and immediately, one of the True Titans stepped forward and performed a deep bow.

”I will, my King.”

The Alchemy-Sword Kingʼs eyes were resolute. He had spent the last months on the border after his sentence, considering his flaws, and it seemed that his mind and will had grown even more powerful, proving he had indeed learned from his past mistakes.

Cain could see the resolution in the manʼs eyes and was sure he would keep this place safe. After the power of the Law Tribulation fused into the earth and sky, even a simple rock became a treasure, and he could not allow anyone to disturb this place as he would need it.

Without saying another word, Cain flashed up, crossed through the portal, and appeared before the Dark Fog.

The Collapsing Lightning Emperorʼs eyes were sharp as he flashed into the portal, and soon, all the Godslayer Humankind powerhouses followed him without hesitation. There was only resolution and fighting will in the eyes of those warriors, as they were ready to follow the Scarlet King to the gates of hell.

The Dark Emperor and Prime Minister Razputin were shocked to see the group going through the portal, reaching the core of the Inferno Daemon Empire, and just as they wondered what their next step should be, Zero moved alone, going through the portal.

When the duo saw Zeroʼs behavior, they immediately glanced at each other. Previously, they had considered that man might have been an impostor and that the one behind everything was the Scarlet King. However, they ultimately discarded the idea after all they had seen today.

First, according to the knowledge the Dark Emperor and Prime Minister Razputin had, only three people could display Zeroʼs battle power: the Scarlet King, the Collapsing Lightning Emperor, and the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar.

Obviously, the Scarlet King was not supplanting Zero, as they just saw the man going through the Space Tribulation. They also saw the Collapsing Lightning Emperor, who was constantly unleashing his aura and soul waves. As for the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar, that man had already left for the Astral Sea, which meant he could not be Zero either.

Ultimately, the Dark Emperor and Prime Minister Razputin had to accept that the man who appeared out of nowhere was really Zero Mint, the old legend from one thousand and five hundred years ago. After they accepted that, a smile appeared on their faces. Even if Zero Mint was a socially awkward person, to say the least, he was a powerful warrior, and that was exactly what they needed.

Without further delay, the Dark Emperor and Prime Minister Razputin led the True Gods through the portal.
