The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 638 Water Tribulation (II)

Although Cainʼs condition was stable, he had suffered a lot of wounds during his fight with Goldkin, and it would not be wise to face the Tribulation in his condition, but he did not have a choice.

Cainʼs eyes turned to the distance, extending his hand. The next second, his Ego Wave generated a powerful suction force, and the paralyzed figure of Goldkin flashed toward him.

Goldkin could not move his body or utilize his energy due to Amaliaʼs sealing force, leaving him helpless as a devouring force invaded his body, beginning to consume his life force and Astral Wave.

An expression of utter agony appeared on Goldkinʼs face. Still, Cain remained indifferent as he focused on the water in the air, which began to condense, forming droplets that float and whirl, each carrying an overwhelming force.

With his grip on Goldkinʼs neck, Cain devoured the vitality of this one and lowered his energy defenses, allowing his body to face the full brunt of the incoming Tribulation.

”BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM!”

With a deafening clap of thunder, the Water Tribulation began.

”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!”

Rain fell, not as mere droplets, but as torrents, each drop heavy with the essence of the Water Law, capable of penetrating stone and metal with its relentless force.

The Scarlet Inquisitors could only watch from a distance as hundreds of thousands of droplets began above Cain, covering his figure and piercing the ground around him for hundreds of thousands of meters.

Cain closed his eyes and focused on mobilizing the vitality he was stealing from Goldkin around his body while thousands of drops began to leave small indentations on his flesh. His body was so strong that it could resist the power of an H-Bomb, yet those droplets could harm his skin, indicating just how strong the Water Tribulation had become.

Just like his Wind Tribulation, the Water Tribulation that Cain faced was in a completely different league than that of other Apotheosis Masters.

Cain did not move a muscle and waited as he focused on enduring the Tribulation and devouring Goldkinʼs life force while rivers formed around his figure.

Goldkin was also affected by the Water Tribulationʼs power, but the heavenly phenomenon did not focus on him, and the damage was just due to collateral nature. It seemed that the Water Tribulation regarded the Deus Behemoth Titan not as another target but as a life treasure of Cain.

Regret and pain overflowed Goldkinʼs figure as the water droplets were riddling him with wounds, making his condition worse and worse.

It took two hours for the droplet storm to fall, and a small ocean had formed around Cainʼs figure. The Godslayer Human had his body riddled with tiny wounds, but there was no internal damage. The same could not be said about Goldkin, however.

Cain glanced at the Titan in his grip and noticed how the light in his eyes had vanished. The Leader of Tier 0 Dark Faction, Golden Tyrants, perished while being used as a life battery, and the only emotion in Cainʼs eyes was regret that this one did not last longer.

Not wasting time, Cain sent Goldkinʼs corpse into the [Demonic Devourer Dimension] as he could no longer split his attention and prepared for the next phase of the Water Tribulation.

Less than a minute after the downpour, the small ocean that had formed around Cain began to react with overwhelming fierceness. Swirling waters began to rise to form massive whirlpools around his body.

The power of the whirlpool grabbed Cainʼs body and began to twist it at an overwhelming speed while trying to suffocate him.

”RUMBLE!”

The ground trembled as a whirlpool that seemed able to connect the earth and the highest sky grew more and more powerful, yet Cain only closed his eyes and began to use Water Synchronization. Once again, he used his training in the Primordial Path to face the Tribulation, which worked amazingly.

Cain began to synchronize his breathing and heartbeat with the flow of the cyclone, allowing him to move with it instead of being crushed under its overwhelming power and rotation force. The whirlpool lasted for five hours, and while Cain had to maintain focus every second, he could survive it without injuries.

He not only survived but was also able to guide natural energy into his body and use the [Gluttony Module] to refill his Astral Wave, Essence Wave, and Ego Wave.

Cain only opened his eyes as he felt the cycloneʼs power begin to wane and saw how the water started to return to their calm state.

”I already survived the Deluge of Cleansing and the Endless Whirlpool. That would normally be the end of the Water Tribulation, but that is not the case this time.”

Not only did the storm clouds in the sky carry on, but the power in these increased as all the water that flooded the ground rose and formed a massive floating ocean that raged.

Cain could feel a power in that floating ocean that did not seem to embody physical destruction but something else, and as the first tidal wave fell from the sky, he knew it.

The tidal wave crossed Cainʼs body, leaving his body perfectly still in the sky before crashing into the ground. The Godslayer Human did not make a move, but the next second, his entire body began to shake as he grabbed his head, and an expression of agony appeared on his face.

”MURDER!” ”KILL!” ”RAGE!” ”HATRED!”

Those words echoed inside Cainʼs mind along with overwhelmingly powerful emotions. He was a Master of Order and could usually face those negative emotions easily, but now their impact on his mind and soul was enhanced by the fragmented will of the Astral Blood Beast.

Cain bit the tip of his tongue with all his strength, nearly ripping it off, and used the pain to regain his focus as he forced his mind and soul to stabilize just in time to face the next tidal wave.
