The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 1670: Visiting friends

It didn’t take Cain long to complete the Tribulation Enhancement for everyone inside the Gu Sect.

The faces of the men and women at the Divine Realm revealed exactly what they were feeling—pure exhilaration. Their eyes glowed with fierce excitement, as waves of newly-awakened strength surged through their veins. They were about to march into an enormous war, and there was simply no better feeling than growing stronger at such a crucial juncture.

Cain’s authoritative voice resonated clearly, penetrating directly into the minds of Pation, Lancer, and Karter.

“Finish the preparations and have them ready to march. I will return in five days and open a portal directly into the Sea of Misfortune.”

After delivering these instructions, Cain swiftly departed from the sect, his presence vanishing into thin air.

Without wasting a second, the trio immediately left their cultivation abode, materializing in the sky high above the sect. Exchanging meaningful glances, the Inferno Daemon, the Godslayer Human, and the Deus Behemoth nodded solemnly to each other before diving into action.

They began swiftly and decisively organizing their armies, setting troops in formation, preparing their weapons, sharpening armor, and stocking critical supplies such as potions, spiritual herbs, and cultivation resources.

As the entire Gu Sect sprang into action, something truly astonishing was quietly unfolding, unnoticed by all involved. Members of the Light and Dark Races were working together seamlessly, without hesitation or hostility.

The Gu Sect had always permitted the coexistence of the two factions, but historically, their interaction had been minimal at best. Previously, they merely tolerated each other’s presence without ever genuinely mixing, let alone fighting alongside one another.

Yet, now, they were cooperating as if their divisions had never existed. What was even more remarkable was that none found this unity unusual or forced.

This phenomenon wasn’t the result of Cain’s intentional manipulation or psychological strategy, as he did not have the time to put in place such maneuvers yet. Instead, it stemmed from something deeper, subtler, and more profound—an ethereal force that Cain himself had yet to fully comprehend or even acknowledge.

Unaware of this subtle yet extraordinary change within the sect, Cain swiftly traversed the skies, expertly masking his formidable aura. Eventually, he arrived near a small city—small only by relative standards, since it housed hundreds of millions of inhabitants.

As Cain approached, he witnessed an imposing army marching resolutely from its gates. Leading this impressive military formation was a man standing confidently at the prime of his life.

The man exuded immense power and radiated a gravitational force so profound that even the light seemed distorted around him. He wore majestic dark armor that further amplified his already remarkable presence.

Despite only having reached the Late Divine Transformation stage, this man commanded such overwhelming authority that even the two Middle Divine Transcendence Masters standing at his side trembled involuntarily beneath his gaze.

Noticing something unusual, the man’s eyes sharply narrowed, swiftly turning upward to scan the sky. Before he could react further, however, an intangible pressure suddenly filled the air, freezing everyone’s movements and ability to think.

Recognizing the unmistakable presence, Gabriel, the former Collapsing Lightning Emperor, instantly dropped to one knee, his head respectfully bowed as he loudly declared with unwavering devotion.

“I salute the Scarlet King!”

Cain calmly glanced downward, immediately noticing a massive statue dedicated to Gabriel now prominently displayed in the city square.

A satisfied smile appeared on Cain’s face, confirming Gabriel’s absolute success in taking full command over an organization that, merely a year ago, he had served as just a general.

With a brief pulse of thought, Cain activated the [A.I. Chip Module], swiftly obtaining a detailed, flawless analysis of Gabriel.

Cain’s smile widened considerably as he processed Gabriel’s impressive progress.

Gabriel had not merely focused on quickly elevating his cultivation base. Instead, he had taken a far wiser path, diligently using the Scarlet Leviathan Sovereign’s energy to comprehensively refine and strengthen his physical body and energy from within.

As a result, Gabriel had exponentially enhanced his innate attributes, skillfully aligning himself with a potent Rank 8 Astral Supremacy Star.

“His talent now matches the Night Prince’s,” Cain murmured approvingly, thoroughly satisfied by Gabriel’s progress.

Although Gabriel’s current power couldn’t possibly rival Cain’s formidable strength, his rapid development indicated that Gabriel was steadily becoming powerful enough to lead Cain’s armies effectively into the future.

Without speaking another word, Cain gracefully lifted his hand, forging three radiant spheres. One shone brilliantly with thirty-six vibrant colors, while the other two glowed brightly with thirty-five.

Without hesitation, Cain directed the magnificent 36-colored sphere straight into the armor Gabriel wore.

Although Gabriel maintained a stoic exterior, an unmistakable thrill flashed across his face. The armor he proudly donned had been obtained as a Tier II Gift from the Second Layer of the [Samsara Arsenal Module].

It had been the prize for his initial sacrifice, a formidable armor at the peak of the Divine Transcendence Rank. With this latest enhancement, Gabriel sensed its latent power being drastically elevated.

“BOOOOOOOOOMM!!”

A small yet powerful burst of energy erupted from deep within the armor’s molecular structure, causing Gabriel’s eyes to widen in astonishment. He felt the armor’s strength abruptly soar, surpassing the limitations of the Soul Realm, and entering an entirely new realm of power.

Gabriel couldn’t suppress the exhilaration that ignited within his heart, fully aware that his combat abilities had just taken another massive leap forward.
