The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 1867: Lord of the Void... SATURN!

Cain glanced at his body and felt the overwhelming power of the five elements raging within him, now existing in perfect balance. Every single one of the billions of cells inside his body pulsed with the energy of the Proto Laws and his overflowing Star Power. He could feel them not just alive, but transcending the limits of what should be possible for a Prima Deity’s body, even one as unique as his.

At the same time, his broken bones began to mend, his wounds slowly closing. The energy of the Royal Rebirth Mark’s Pseudo-Immortal Body was at work, but as moments passed, Cain narrowed his eyes.

The healing... was slower than before.

And worse, it wasn’t complete.

But rather than concern or frustration, a wild grin spread across his bloodied face. Then he erupted into laughter.

”Hahahahahahaha!”

The joy and exhilaration came from a startling realization: his body had evolved so drastically, so violently, that even the Royal Rebirth Mark could no longer fully repair it. He had outgrown it. It was a joyous testament to his transformation and the immense power that now coursed through his veins.

But his joy didn’t last long.

Cain’s expression turned sharp. His eyes narrowed, icy with lethal intent as he shifted his focus to Divine Calamity. There was no roar, no war cry, just pure, focused rage and killing intent.

And then, he walked.

He stepped forward, and space morphed around him. Each movement covered hundreds of kilometers, as if the very concept of distance bent to his will. He was closing the gap with Divine Calamity at terrifying speed, but with a calm that drew true terror.

A flicker of panic passed through the ArchDeity’s mind. The idea of fleeing flashed for just a heartbeat. But he dismissed it. Cain was faster than him throughout his mastery of Space-Time Laws, so there would be no escape. And even if he could escape, to run now would destroy his reputation, the power, and pride he had built through centuries of dominance.

”ARGHHHH!”

Divine Calamity roared in fury, channeling the power of his Inner Universe, conjuring spears of condensed gravity and hurling them toward Cain like meteor lances. Each one was a world-shattering weapon, capable of puncturing the crust of small planets.

The Scarlet King did not dodge. He did not resist them with spells or shields. He simply walked forward.

”BOOOOOOOOMMM!”

The first lance struck, unleashing a violent explosion that should have torn Cain apart. But to everyone’s horror, it barely halted his momentum. He continued walking through fire, through force, through fury.

Divine Calamity’s eyes widened in disbelief, dread creeping into his soul. Lance after lance flew, each more powerful than the last, but it was useless. Cain’s energy defenses, combined with the Space-Time Skin of his bloodline, diffused much of the attacks before they even reached his flesh.

And when they finally did?

The Primordial Mazinger Indestructible Body absorbed the brunt of it. That mythical body was said to ignore 90% of the strength behind even an Early ArchDeity Rank spell. What little damage the attacks could cause was drowned by the raw vitality that surged from every cell in Cain’s being.

Cain walked through an apocalypse like it was mist.

”It seems devouring that fragment of your consciousness hurt you more than I expected,” Cain said calmly, his voice cutting through the chaos. ”The backlash must’ve been severe if this is all you can do.”

And he kept advancing.

The lances—capable of tearing small worlds in half—rained down on him, and Cain didn’t even flinch. Every step he took made Divine Calamity’s heart race faster. His attacks were meaningless. His enemy was a juggernaut.

And when Cain was only a few dozen meters away, Divine Calamity’s panic peaked.

”¡Liberación Total!”

His voice boomed across the heavens.

In an instant, a tsunami of psychic power fused with soul force burst from his body. The transformation was transcendent and violent. The very color drained from the world. Space folded inward. A world-ending black hole formed above him—then compressed into a humanoid shape.

An entity was born from shadow and energy.

He became a dark celestial god, a being that seemed forged in the crucible of apocalyptic fury. Jagged, organic armor encased his massive body, molten energy coursing like veins of lava. A twisted halo crowned his head, warped by cosmic madness. Twin horns spiraled back from his helm, while two eyes—burning with ancient hatred—pierced the void.

His chest blazed with a molten core, like a dying star in its final collapse. In one hand, he gripped a colossal spear, its blade shaped like a crescent scythe, carved to tear through dimensions. Shredded ribbons of energy trailed from his form, swirling like unraveling threads of destiny.

”Lord of the Void... SATURN!” Divine Calamity roared, now a cosmic titan, dwarfing cities with a glance. His power overflowed, flooding the skies. Even continents across the ocean felt his presence.

The Prima Deities from the Endlessdeath Continent turned their eyes toward the sky, witnessing the birth of the monstrous new form of Divine Calamity.

Yet for all the awe, there was shock—shock that Divine Calamity had resorted to this.

Unlike ”Mind and Body as One,” this Liberación Total was triggered by ”Mind and Soul as One.” More powerful, more complete—but dangerously vulnerable. This transformation tied his soul directly to his form. Any damage now inflicted wouldn’t just wound his body—it would scar his soul.

An ArchDeity would never trigger such a release unless he had no other choice.

It was a public admission. Cain had brought him to the edge of death.

The shame was unbearable, which only fueled Divine Calamity’s rage. He did not hesitate. He swung the massive, cosmic spear with terrifying speed, the air around it distorting and collapsing under its sheer force.

Cain saw it descend. A weapon large enough to eclipse the sky. A force capable of ending entire civilizations.

And yet... he remained calm.

He did not activate his Liberación Total.

Not yet.
