The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 552: Fight inside the Void Fire Cauldron (II)

When the duo heard those words, they immediately frowned and gazed at Cain coldly. Even if the young man was the new Sun Avatar from the Solis Clan, he was still a foreigner in their home, yet he dared to speak like that to them and incite a fight.

Gordon stared at Cain for a moment before turning again toward Zamuel and Lore.

”What is your decision?”

The way the man spoke, ignoring Cainʼs words, was meant as an insult, but Cain did not really care, and he was not worried as it did not take long for Zamuel and Lore to show fighting will in their eyes.

Tension escalated as the two groups looked at each other with fighting will.

”There is no reason for all of us to battle. Your best three against our best three. The winner will have the right to lead all their people into the Void Fire, while the loser will have to take their Essence Cultivators out.”

Cain spoke again, making everyoneʼs eyes focus on him. The mock fight he just proposed was clearly meant to include him in the battle.

The coldness in Gordon and Sima diminished greatly as they heard the words of Cain and saw how this one intended to use his own strength to secure the right for the Void Fire. If there was something the Deus Behemoth Race respected, it was strength and determination, and the Godslayer Human was showing both of them right now.

Zamuel and Lore glanced at Cain and softly nodded with smiles on their faces. Although they did not understand why Cain wanted to use the Void Fire so much, this one had helped them enormously, allowing them early access to three of the Six Chambers already.

If Cain wanted to use the Void Fire immediately, they were willing to fight for it. However, the fact the Godslayer Human would be fighting by their side made their image of this one even better.

”Hahaha, very good. There is nothing better to fix a problem than with a fight. After all, in this world, might is right!”

Gordon stepped forward and shouted as his entire body seemed to ignite with dark red flames.

”Jarkan!”

The moment Gordon shouted that name, a man flashed out from the Void of Fire Cauldron and appeared along his side. He was over two and a half meters tall, with a bulky body, and there was not a single hair on his face, giving him a menacing aura.

Jarkan remained silent behind Gordon, focusing on Cain with his dark brown eyes.

As he stared at the bulging man, Cainʼs eyes grew sharp, and he used the [Pseudo Atomic Analysis] tool. This fight was too important, and he would gather as much information as he could.

Although Jarkan would have easily detected Cainʼs Ego Wave inspecting his body, the [Pseudo Atomic Analysis] tool was much more subtle. The Deus Behemoth detected nothing, and the next second, a stream of information appeared in Cainʼs mind.

[Scanning target...

...

Scan of target completed.

Name: Jarkan

Race: Deus Behemoth

Path of Power: Astral Rebirth (Bone Calamity)

Lineage: Vulcano Lineage

Wave Talent: Middle Tier 9

Stats:

Strength: 710

Agility: 389

Vitality: 598

Astral Wave: 694

Astral Blood Saturation: 91% Completion]

Cain could not help but clench his fists as he saw those stats. The man was nearly seven times stronger than him and had a constitution that surpassed his by a factor of five.

However, the one thing that raised the manʼs danger was his Astral Blood Saturation. At 50%, you could use the ability of Astral Blood to enhance your defenses and offensive power exponentially, but it was only temporal.

However, once your Astral Blood Saturation rises beyond 90%, you can keep igniting your blood cells for hours without a problem.

ʼHe seems to be the oldest of the group, nearing one hundred already, but that is only fair as he is already at the Peak of the Apotheosis Realm! This man might be even stronger than Gordon, who is supposed to lead the Vulcano Clanʼs warriors.ʼ

Cain was certain that this man was even more dangerous than the poisoned Lightning Draco Frog.

ʼI will hide my Astral Wave, but I must unleash everything else to win.ʼ

Zamuel and Lore were also aware of Jarkanʼs strength, but they could do nothing other than trust Cain could handle the man.

The warriors of the Ursa Clan, Vulcano Clan, Solis Clan, and Zanginis Clan all moved away from the center of the Void Fire Cauldron, leaving only the six.

Although this would not be a battle to the death, neither would it be a small mock battle, and they could end up hurt if they lost focus for even a second. After all, every one of them had more power inside their bodies than a nuclear weapon!

Zamuel took out short daggers that radiated with the power of sunlight energy while Lore activated his spiked gauntlets full of explosive Blood Energy. The blood inside their veins began to burn as they were ready to trigger their Astral Blood Ability.

”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!”

That was not all, as the duo also unleashed their Astral Wave and made it burst with overwhelming power, generating a dense pillar of dark golden and purple force.

Gordon, Sima, and Jarkan did the same as their counterparts, taking out their weapons and making their Astral Wave explode.

Sima, the fierce woman from the Ursa Clan, took out a massive hammer, and it was so heavy that the moment it touched the ground, it cracked.

Gordon took out what seemed to be a massive bastard sword bathed in magma, while Jarkan took out a halberd made of fiery volcanic rock.

Although it was normal for those in the lower levels of the Astral Rebirth Path of Power to rely only on their arms and legs, as their Ego Wave grew stronger, many of them attained more than enough mastery over the Four Basic Wave Arts to extend their Wave Cloak to their weapon flawlessly.

”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!” ”¡BOOM!”

As the trio made their Astral Wave burst, three more explosions echoed inside the Void Fire Cauldron. The five pillars were like the fingers of a divine deity clashing against the ceiling of the chamber, and if they were in the outside world, they could be seen for dozens of thousands of kilometers.

Finally, all eyes turned to Cain as they waited to see his energy pool burst. The people of the Ursa Clan and Vulcano Clan had not come to the Sun Avatar Crowning, so while they had heard of the power of the Godslayer Human before, this would be the first time they could see it properly.

As for the battle upon reaching the Astral Bloodline Realm against the Skeletal Creatures, at that point, everybody was focused on their own fight, so they only witnessed some impressive spells of the Godslayer Human, which was far from enough to gauge his true power.

Cain took a deep breath as he took out Slaughter, and in the next second, a wave of sky-blue energy and Blood Energy emerged from his body.

”¡Boom!”

A small blast echoed, and everybody saw the Essence Wave and Blood Energy pillar emerging from Cain. The Deus Behemoths immediately narrowed their eyes as they saw the purity of both energy pools and how, despite being a Middle Wave King, the potency with which these energies emerged from Cainʼs body matched that of someone with a foot in the Apotheosis Realm.

Although it was surprising, it was far from impressive enough. At this point, Cainʼs eyes began to glow with red light, and he used the full power of his willpower to enhance his Wave Burst.

”¡BOOM!”

Gordon, Sima, and Jarkan adopted solemn expressions as they saw the sky-blue and red pillar of energy blasting into the chamber ceiling with a might that did not fall short of any of them. Cain could not match the size of their energy pools, but his Wave Burst allowed him to unleash as much energy as they did.

Of course, such a massive Wave Burst would mean that Cainʼs energy pool would deplete much faster, but no one expected this to be a battle of attrition. However, what surprised everyone was that Cain could unleash such massive energy output without any backlash.

Even if his willpower allowed him to do it, that did not mean his body and meridians could endure such overwhelming pressure, yet no matter how they looked at the Godslayer Human, he seemed perfectly fine.

ʼJarkan, do not lower your guard for even a second. Remember, that man was able to kill a Divine Beast before becoming a Wave King.ʼ

Gordonʼs eyes held a solemn light as he sent a message to his comrade.

ʼI understand, Young Lord.ʼ

Jarkanʼs eyes began to glow with a silver light as he unleashed the full power of his Ego Wave, enhancing his body even more and immediately triggering his Astral Blood Ability. Even though the young man was nearly 70 years younger, he would use everything he had.
