The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 1652: World Tree’s evolution

The immense power behind the spells of a Prima Deity originated from their unique source—not merely an Inner World, but an Inner Universe.

Unlike ordinary Essence Evolution cultivators, whose abilities were limited to the Laws they mastered personally, a Prima Deity’s Inner Universe contained not only their strongest Laws but also fragments of all existing Laws. This made it a true cosmos, overflowing with extraordinary power and boundless potential.

Even for someone of Cain’s caliber, whose psychic strength, mastery of The Flow, and command over the Laws of Space-Time were extraordinary, stabilizing an Inner Universe after extracting it was unimaginably complicated.

Realizing the urgency, Cain wasted no time and swiftly directed the Evolution Core containing the Inner Universe into his Inner World.

“RUMBLE!!!”

A tremendous rumble immediately reverberated throughout Cain’s Inner World, signaling danger.

Cain’s Inner World was remarkable, exceptional even, yet it was far from sufficient to safely contain something as powerful as an Inner Universe without significant consequences.

Within mere moments, the foundational matrix of Cain’s Inner World began to show alarming signs of deterioration, cracks rapidly spreading through its structure.

Fortunately, before permanent damage could occur, the World Tree Sapling reacted instinctively. Its vibrant branches surged outward, gripping tightly onto the Sacred Organ containing the Inner Universe.

Like a ravenous beast driven by primal hunger, the World Tree absorbed the Inner Universe into its core, eagerly digesting every particle of energy and fragment of Law it contained.

A deafening explosion erupted from within the World Tree Sapling, illuminating Cain’s entire Inner World with radiant colors reminiscent of a rainbow. The Tree’s roots swiftly became thicker and longer, burrowing deeper into the metaphysical soil of his Inner World, while its trunk grew substantially taller and stronger.

Cain quickly adopted a meditative posture, focusing all his senses to closely observe and channel the immense energies now unleashed within his Inner World. He could not afford to miss even a second of the transformative process occurring before him.

With each passing explosion, the World Tree grew exponentially more robust and majestic. Thousands upon thousands of glowing branches and emerald leaves emerged, each carrying fragments of the essential forces of existence that constituted reality itself. This continuous evolution lasted for several hours, a spectacle of cosmic proportions unfolding within Cain.

Finally, after an exhaustive and mesmerizing transformation, the World Tree completed its evolution from a sapling into a young yet mighty tree.

Cain slowly opened his eyes, now radiant with a majestic brilliance previously unseen. The evolution of the World Tree had massively enhanced the stability and energy capacity of his Inner World, but this was only the beginning.

Cain’s connection and understanding of advanced Laws—especially Space-Time, Soul, Life, Death, and Gravity—underwent exponential enhancement, deepening significantly beyond his prior capabilities.

“Hahaha, excellent!” Cain exclaimed joyfully. He could distinctly feel his Essence Evolution Path becoming incomparably stronger, but even now, the good news was far from over.

Turning his gaze towards the Sorcerer, Cain saw how the decrepit old man appeared even more fragile and feeble than before, his life force dissipating rapidly.

Without hesitation or mercy, Cain grabbed Sorcerer firmly by the throat, summoning the Scarlet Throne.

This time, instead of manifesting as an enormous gate towering over the landscape, the Scarlet Thorn materialized at a modest size, merely several meters tall. As the gate swung open, a monstrous force emerged, reaching out and violently extracting Sorcerer’s soul and ego from his deteriorating physical body.

An ethereal specter of Sorcerer was forcibly drawn out, swiftly pulled into the crimson dimension within the Scarlet Thorn. The sheer terror of eternal damnation awakened a brief spark of lucidity in Sorcerer’s shattered consciousness.

His ghostly eyes regained a faint glow of awareness, but before he could utter a desperate plea for mercy, the gates slammed shut, disappearing as swiftly as they appeared.

Cain’s eyes shone brilliantly as he felt Sorcerer’s memories, insights, and deep comprehension of various Laws gradually merging into his own being.

“At this rate, my mastery over the Soul Law will reach unprecedented heights!” Cain mused, a triumphant smile spreading across his face.

The Soul Law was Sorcerer’s strongest domain, and now Cain had obtained its profound fragments through both the World Tree’s absorption and the Scarlet Thorn’s assimilation.

While the Soul Law was not Cain’s primary battle tactic, it was nevertheless indispensable, particularly now, as it was crucial for fully mastering and unlocking the true potential of his Dark Moon Eye.

“Killing Sorcerer has proven immensely beneficial—and there’s still more to come.”

With this thought, Cain teleported from within the volcano, directly into the Second Level of the Samsara Arsenal Module, holding Sorcerer’s lifeless corpse.

Without delay, Cain swiftly moved into the Samsara Sacrificial Ground, standing before the Samsara Flame. There, he released every wicked and corrupt treasure obtained from the members of Sorcerer’s Hand, along with Sorcerer’s own sinister artifacts and even his corpse itself.

The Samsara Flame eagerly devoured every evil artifact, along with Sorcerer’s remains, releasing immense waves of Soul Enlightenment Mist that quickly permeated the entire Second Level. Cain, however, was immediately drawn to the ocean of brilliant purple energy filling the castle’s ceiling above.

The amount of Fortune he had amassed was immense. Over seventy percent of it swiftly transformed into a golden creation energy, manifesting into countless radiant spheres of medium size, each pulsating with potent auras.

“It seems Third Realm treasures are still out of reach,” Cain murmured thoughtfully. “But this harvest will suffice, especially since I must establish a point system for the upcoming war.”

Satisfied with the outcome, Cain took a deep breath as the remaining Fortune energy transformed into Merit, directly into his right hand, fusing with his Royal Rebirth Mark.

Despite Cain’s extraordinary willpower, the pain of countless intricate runes extending across his arm was indescribably intense. He gritted his teeth with such force that blood seeped from the corner of his mouth. Thankfully, the agony was brief, and soon, the elaborate runic formation completely enveloped his forearm.

A moment later, the authoritative voice of the Samsara Lord reverberated throughout the castle:

“Congratulations! You have accumulated enough Merit to attain the Tier II Royal Rebirth Mark. You can now safely burn up to 40% of your life force and soul force without permanent repercussions. This power will remain effective even after you ascend to the Third Realm. While your body and soul will heal naturally, treasures can accelerate the process.”

“Continue to make valuable sacrifices to unlock the complete Royal Rebirth Knight Runic Set. Remember, the more precious the offering, the greater the reward—and I have a particular fondness for sacrifices of evil entities.”
