The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 1835: Awakening of the Emptiness Within

Cain could not help but show a small smile as he felt the immense power of The Flow surging effortlessly around him. In the Nine Empyrean Suns Universe, where the fundamental rules of reality were easier to grasp and manipulate, utilizing The Flow was as simple as breathing. He found that performing Redirection was now as natural and instinctive as a passing thought, requiring almost no mental effort at all.

However, Cain’s gaze swiftly turned towards the broken Atrox Immortus lying on the ground. His eyes took on a meaningful gleam, a mix of contempt and curiosity swirling within.

”The people from the Nine Empyrean Suns Universe—even those who manage to achieve dual cultivation all the way to the Third Realm—are considerably weaker compared to those from the Crimson World,” Cain quietly remarked, solidifying that realization within himself.

This fact did not particularly surprise Cain, though. The Level System in the Crimson World not only concentrated heavily on soul strength and energy reserves but also significantly amplified physical might. Moreover, the evolution of one’s True Name enhanced one’s willpower and mental defenses far beyond ordinary cultivation methods.

One also had to factor in that the fundamental rules of the Crimson World, known as the Oniric Truths, existed on a much higher conceptual plane than the Laws and Concepts governing the Nine Empyrean Suns Universe. It was therefore natural that cultivators of the Crimson World would possess a definitive advantage even at identical cultivation stages.

Cain didn’t dwell too long on these thoughts. With a casual gesture, he teleported directly next to the unconscious Atrox. His eyes glowed with psychic force, flooding the man’s mind and soul instantly, causing him to black out completely. Another simple motion sent the defeated opponent effortlessly into Cain’s Inner Universe.

Then, Cain’s attention swiftly turned to the distance. His perception had evolved so tremendously that he could still clearly see the fleeing Late Prima Deities, even at vast distances. He prepared to chase after another one, but just as he was about to make his move, his eyes suddenly sharpened, sensing a powerful presence rapidly approaching.

”Hahaha, boy, it seems you’ve drawn some unwanted attention,” echoed a familiar voice within Cain’s consciousness. It was none other than Apex, the System Spirit of the Absolute Life Form System.

Cain shrugged nonchalantly at Apex’s remark. The approaching figure was not merely a Prima Deity—it was an Archdeity! Before his recent journey in the Crimson World, the very thought of confronting an Archdeity would have filled him with unease. But now, having faced beings of such magnitude regularly, these ancient entities no longer posed an insurmountable threat.reewebn ovel(.)com

Of course, caution was still necessary. Cain did not currently possess his overwhelmingly powerful Neo-Demon Body, and recklessly engaging an unknown Archdeity in combat without preparation would be unwise. Making a quick decision, Cain soared gracefully into the sky, collecting the Crown Prince of the Golden Star Kingdom along the way. In a fraction of a second, he merged seamlessly with the world itself, becoming utterly imperceptible.

Cain’s current Primordial Body, although weaker in raw combat strength than his Neo-Demon form, possessed an affinity to harmonize perfectly with the universe—a trait his Absolute Destruction True Doomsday Body could never replicate. It did not take long before Cain completely vanished from the Archdeity’s perception.

Even after sensing that the powerful presence had lost his trail, Cain did not become careless. He continued moving at tremendous speed for several hours, finally allowing himself to relax only after being certain that no danger remained. He gently landed on the earth, breathing deeply, settling his heart.

”Now that I finally have a moment of peace,” Cain whispered to himself, ”it is time to analyze my gains and understand the true extent of my power.”

The first thing Cain decided to examine was his Alter Ego—Lord of Conquest Leviathan. With a mere thought, he sent his consciousness diving into his Soul Dimension. There, stretching across a colossal psychic dimension larger than any continent, stood Leviathan. However, its former serpent-like body was now wrapped entirely within an immense cocoon, surrounded by oceans of pure psychic energy.

Cain carefully observed the state of the Leviathan, and gradually a wide smile of excitement and satisfaction appeared on his face. There was nothing wrong or worrying about its condition; rather, the reason for Leviathan’s transformation was far more exhilarating. Not only had Cain’s True Name evolution propelled the Leviathan to the absolute Peak of the Prima Deity rank, but it had also opened a gateway to the next realm!

Thanks to the memories Cain had stolen from Divine Calamity, he clearly knew what was required to progress beyond the Mind and Body as One realm. First, the cultivator needed to elevate their willpower to the Archdeity Realm—this condition had already been effortlessly met by Cain. The next crucial step was diving deeply into one’s chosen Path, comprehending and assimilating it so thoroughly that its profound power naturally began saturating one’s soul and spirit.

The strength inherent within the Dream of Imperium, embedded within his True Name, resonated harmoniously with Leviathan’s Path of Conquest, pushing the Alter Ego precisely toward this critical threshold of evolution. Now, the only ingredients Cain needed were time and an oceanic quantity of psychic energy to feed and nurture Leviathan’s metamorphosis. Fortunately, the Nine Empyrean Suns Universe could easily provide all the psychic power required.

Cain knew that the evolution of his Ego Eternal Path would tremendously amplify his combat prowess, allowing him to journey back to the Everlife Continent significantly faster than originally anticipated. However, this was not the only Path on the verge of a significant breakthrough.

As Cain delved deeper into the sensations within his own flesh, soul, and spirit, he felt a harmonious resonance with the universe at an unimaginably profound level. His Primordial Path had finally reached the absolute pinnacle of the Ascension Stage. Now it stood ready, waiting patiently for him to ascend to the next stage of evolution.

Cain knew precisely what was required to achieve this: a critical and final transformation.

”Awakening of the Emptiness Within.” He whispered these words softly to himself, eyes brimming with anticipation and determination:
