The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 1667: Entering secluded cultivation

The best part for Cain was how familiar the new star felt—almost like reuniting with an old friend.

“This Astral Supremacy Star… it resembles a collapsing form of Sunstorm Oblivion. I won’t even need to alter my battle style if I choose it. And yet… my power will rise exponentially.”

A wide smile stretched across his face as his mind settled. With unwavering purpose, Cain made his decision. His soul and Rebirth Heart surged forward, reaching out to connect with the new Astral Supremacy Star.

“BOOOOOOOOM!”

In the next instant, a massive burst of Star Power descended from the higher realms. It cascaded down from the elevated dimensions where the Astral Supremacy Stars resided, flooding directly into Cain’s body like a divine storm.

“Cinderheart Ruin Star.”

The name of the Rank 9, Second Order Astral Supremacy Star echoed through Cain’s mind. The moment their bond solidified, a surge of unimaginable energy coursed through his veins.

Cain could feel every fiber of his being strengthening—his vitality surged, his flesh hardened, and the very core of his Rebirth Heart pulsed like a blazing furnace. Star Cores began to bloom inside him like astral seeds awakening, pushing his cultivation to a higher stage.

“Hahahaha!”

A burst of laughter exploded from Cain. His thrill, his joy, his excitement—it was impossible to contain. Not only had his cultivation advanced, but his foundation had experienced a tremendous breakthrough, greatly improving his potential. His power, both raw and refined, had taken a massive leap forward.

After a few moments, Cain composed himself. The wild energy around him stilled, and his eyes sharpened, glowing with a fierce and intelligent light.

“System, scan me.”

The mechanical voice of the Absolute Life Form System immediately echoed within his mind.

Cain’s grin widened as he reviewed the results.

“Even without the World Strength enhancements, my physical attributes and energy pool already surpass many talented Divine Transcendence Masters. Incredible.”

Yet even as his confidence grew, his eyes suddenly sharpened, a solemn glint flashing through them.

He was stronger, yes. But he was still so far from reaching the level of that man.

The image of Divine Calamity—the way he had bent the very laws of reality with a wave of his hand—rose unbidden in Cain’s mind. The weight of that power, the sheer impossibility of it, made him clench his teeth and fists in frustration.

But his will was unshakable.

He pushed away the intimidation and focused instead on what mattered: progress.

Without a second thought, Cain vanished from the tower, reappearing in the sky above the Second Level of the [Samsara Arsenal Module]. He took a deep breath and allowed the purest air of that realm—the Soul Enlightenment Mist—to flood his lungs. The fog carried divine essence, allowing mind and soul to reach extreme states of clarity and comprehension.

“There is no better place to train than here.”

Cain waved his hand, summoning dozens of floating cubes around him. Each one shimmered with cosmic power, vibrating with the essence of universal laws and the might of the Astral Supremacy Stars.

They were Cosmic Cubes—the energy cores that even Prima Deities relied upon to refine their cultivation.

Without hesitation, Cain clenched his fists.

The cubes exploded in unison, releasing their vast essence into the surrounding sky. The entire Second Level of the module lit up with energy and celestial essence, forming a perfect training ground.

While the [Gluttony Module] had already provided Cain with vast internal reserves of energy, external ambient energy was just as essential for deep secluded cultivation.

Now fully immersed, Cain shifted his focus to his Sacred Organs, cycling energy through his Inner World, ensuring it continued growing as more Star Cores emerged within his flesh and blood. His body became a galaxy of light, each cell vibrating with cosmic potential.

With that stabilized, Cain activated his Ego Wave, creating two humanoid clones—phantoms of pure mental and psychic power. While they weren’t suited for battle, their purpose was clear: to refine his mastery over Tribulation Enhancement and Genetic Coding.

Mastering the Thirty-Six Revolution Refinement was a top priority—not only because of his promise to Pation, Lancer, and Karter, but for himself. That refinement would be critical in the war to come.

As for Genetic Coding, Cain needed to improve that skill for his next major endeavor—the fusion of his bloodlines.

The Primordial Sun Bloodline and the Royal Supernova Space-Time Bloodline were both Third Realm Bloodlines, powerful beyond measure. Alone, they could rival the blood of ArchDeities. But if he could combine them—if he could harmonize their powers into a single, unified lineage—the result would be a divine force.

Finally, a third portion of Cain’s mind turned inward toward the Indestructible Herculean Technique. Now that he had reached Late Divine Transformation and formed a connection with a Second Order Rank 9 Astral Supremacy Star, his body was strong enough to endure the third phase of the technique.
