The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2078: This Isn’t Over

If the chaos completely collapses, then all life within the chaos will perish, even those titled Controllers are unlikely to be exceptions.

No one knows what lies beyond the chaos. In short, within this chaos, no one has reached the level of stepping out of the chaos, even Jing Yan before, did not reach this level.

”Could it be... this chaos is ultimately heading towards destruction?” Jing Yan looked at the void with melancholy.

He still has many people in his heart, his family, his friends.

”Lord Dao Master, this... seems a bit off, why do I feel some strange energy within the space?” Ma Yi Ancestor frowned.

Chaos began to collapse, and indeed, there were special energy fluctuations within the chaos. These energies carried a dense death aura, and chaos creatures infected by these energies would be affected. If unable to dispel them, these energies infused with death aura alone are enough to kill all chaos creatures below the Controller level.

”Our chaos is collapsing,” Jing Yan said.

”What?”

”Chaos is collapsing? Lord Dao Master, what does this mean?”

Upon hearing Jing Yan’s words, everyone present showed a startled expression.

”Chaos is disintegrating, the Supreme Rule is no longer repairing chaos. According to the current rate of disintegration, I fear that within three months, the entire chaos will vanish,” Jing Yan shook his head, exhaled, and smiled bitterly.

Before this grand battle, the Chaos Origin Will was already scarred. With Luo Dejie entering the chaos with apostles, after a grand battle, the Chaos Origin Will became overwhelmed. And finally, Luo Dejie’s self-destruction was the last straw that broke the camel’s back.

Jing Yan glanced at everyone present, sighing again inwardly.

This loss to life within chaos is truly enormous.

Many familiar faces are no longer visible.

Valley Master Qi Ying of Wansheng Valley died in battle, Juefeng Mountain Master of Boundaryless Spirit Mountain died in battle, Du Ya Ancestor died in battle, Sword Emperor Lishu heavily injured.

Most of the Controller level creatures died in battle. Vice Palace Master Quin and Hall Master Qiu Lun of Hongjun Heavenly Palace, Niao Cheng Palace Master, and others all perished.

Ancient Tree Spirits also suffered heavy casualties, originally over two hundred close to three hundred Ancient Tree Spirits, now only about one hundred remain alive.

Nuwa Palace Master and Yi Hua Palace Master are both still alive, as well as Ancestor Wan Hun’s disciple Lord Gu Mie.

”Buzz!”

As Jing Yan pondered how to prevent the chaos from collapsing, law fluctuations suddenly rippled in the void not far away.

Both Jing Yan and everyone present immediately sensed these fluctuations and turned to look.

In that void, black lines gradually converged, eventually forming a face.

Upon seeing this face, everyone displayed angry expressions.

This face belonged to the Dao Master Luo Dejie of the Otherworldly Chaos.

”Jing Yan, how do you feel? Isn’t this chaos accelerating its disintegration?”

”Haha...”

”Do you think you’ve killed me, Luo Dejie?”

”No! You haven’t! With your little ability, you dream of killing me? How laughable! What you killed was merely one of my Dharma Bodies.”

Luo Dejie’s voice came through.

”Hahaha... it’s not over yet! Just wait! Even if you stop this chaos from collapsing, I will return, and when I do, I’ll crush this chaos with my own hands!” Luo Dejie yelled.

”Damn it!”

”Die!” Chaos creatures attacked the large face.

Yet before their attacks reached, Luo Dejie’s face gradually dissipated itself. Apparently, this face was merely a remnant force of Luo Dejie, without attack power. After speaking, it automatically dissipated.

Jing Yan’s face turned serious.

Luo Dejie is still alive!

The Luo Dejie who entered this chaos, was merely one of his Dharma Bodies. To have such terrifying power, how strong must Qi Venerable be?

This had Jing Yan overestimate Luo Dejie’s power; actually, Luo Dejie’s true self and this Dharma Body have about the same power. Even if Luo Dejie’s true self entered this chaos, the combat power would be similar to the Dharma Body. If the true self entered, it would also be slain by Jing Yan now.

Yet Luo Dejie is quite cunning, though exceptionally confident about seizing this chaos, he still did not let his true self enter, only allowing a Dharma Body.

Despite Luo Dejie merely losing one Dharma Body, this significantly impacts him. A Dharma Body is akin to a second life. This Dharma Body is different from avatars. Creating a Dharma Body requires an extremely terrifying cost. The Dharma Body contains extensive Divine Soul Power. Upon its destruction, that Divine Soul Power dissipates. Now, in the Otherworldly Chaos, Luo Dejie is deeply wounded, who knows how long it will take him to recover.

”Lord Dao Master, Luo Dejie is still alive!”

”Damn it, why is he so hard to kill? What did he mean, entering this chaos with only a Dharma Body, what is a Dharma Body? Isn’t a Dharma Body an avatar? The strength of avatars is too terrifying!” Some chaos creatures spoke.

These creatures lack any understanding of Dharma Bodies, instinctively equating Dharma Bodies with avatars. They in this chaos can easily create avatars, but those avatars have very low power, only used in specific situations. Even titled Controllers’ avatars are vastly inferior to Controller level creatures. And the Divine Soul Power within avatars is minimal and being slayed barely affects the main body.

”Now it seems, Luo Dejie is indeed still alive!”

”That damned bastard, killed so many chaos creatures!” Jing Yan clenched his palm.

Originally thinking Luo Dejie was dead, counting it as vengeance for life killed by Luo Dejie. Yet it seems this revenge was unfulfilled, Luo Dejie remains alive.

”Cannot wait any longer! Must immediately stop this chaos from collapsing!” Jing Yan turned, gritted his teeth.

In the depths, Jing Yan sensed the Supreme Rule.

The source of the Supreme Rule within chaos is the Primordial Chaos Tree. The evolution of chaos fundamentally originates from the Primordial Chaos Tree. The Primordial Chaos Tree provides Life Force to chaos, birthing many lives. The Life Force of the Primordial Chaos Tree is intertwined with the Supreme Rule. Having absorbed the Life Force of the Primordial Chaos Tree, Jing Yan gained the ability to sense the Supreme Rule.

Now, the Supreme Rule within chaos can no longer autonomously repair chaos, thus Jing Yan can only attempt to manipulate the Supreme Rule.

In the void, Jing Yan sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, sensed the Supreme Rule, and tried to manipulate the Supreme Rule to repair the widening cracks in the Chaos Barrier.
