The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2055: Supreme Leader of Chaos

Since the Primordial Chaos Tree brewed life and birthed Chaos Creatures, Endless Chaos has undergone long ages of evolution and development, experiencing the invasion of the Ancient Tree Space, the fragmentation of the Ultimate Land, and the incursion of Devouring Sky Clan creatures. Throughout, Endless Chaos has never had a true leader.

After the Ultimate Land fragmented, five powerful Title Controllers successively established their own forces on the largest shard of the broken Ultimate Land. These five Title Controllers are the Chaos Giants, such as Ancestor Hong Jun. Later, He Ming from the Void Divine Hall relocated its headquarters out of the Ultimate Land to a hidden space within the Void, while Hongjun Heavenly Palace, Boundaryless Spirit Mountain, Luoshui Divine Palace, and Wansheng Valley remained in the Ultimate Land.

Among these, the Luoshui Divine Palace was founded the latest. Yihua Palace Master established the Luoshui Divine Palace after the disappearance of Emperor Donghuang.

The Five Ultimate Forces, although the most powerful forces in Endless Chaos, have never been able to lead the entire Chaos. Even the Slaughter God Temple, created jointly by these five Ultimate Forces, is merely an institution.

It can be said that Endless Chaos has never had a leader capable of commanding all Chaos Creatures.

When Ma Yi Ancestor spoke this sentence, the others present nodded.

”Ma Yi, what do you mean?” Du Ya Ancestor asked Ma Yi Ancestor.

”I propose to elect Palace Master Jing Yan as the Chaos Leader. In the future, all Chaos Creatures will follow Palace Master Jing Yan’s orders, including the Four Ultimate Forces and us Title Controllers, and not be limited to these people.” As Ma Yi Ancestor spoke, he looked at Jing Yan.

Jing Yan’s eyes sharpened, and he looked at Ma Yi Ancestor.

To be honest, if Chaos Creatures could have a leader, it would indeed exert stronger power. Presently, Chaos Creatures are like scattered sand, only briefly uniting when the Devouring Sky Clan creatures create chaos. This not only consumes a lot but is also very inefficient.

”Ma Yi Ancestor, I’m still young...” Jing Yan shook his head.

”Palace Master Jing Yan, seeking knowledge knows no age, the capable come first. In Chaos, who can contend against you, Palace Master Jing Yan? When electing a leader, if we do not push for the most capable, how can it convince people? Haha, to give a simple example, if I were elected leader, never mind the outside Title Controllers, even among us, most would probably not be convinced.” Ma Yi Ancestor said with a smile.

There’s no order of precedence, the accomplished come first.

The path of Martial Arts has always been this way.

”Du Ya, what do you think?” Ma Yi Ancestor directly asked Du Ya Ancestor’s opinion.

”I think what you said makes sense; if our Chaos continues internal strife like before, then even if we aren’t destroyed by the Devouring Sky Clan, we will be by other outsiders. Beyond Chaos, there is likely more than just Devouring Sky Clan creatures.” Du Ya Ancestor said in a deep voice.

”You also are willing to listen to Palace Master Jing Yan’s orders?” Ma Yi Ancestor continued.

”That’s right, I am willing to follow Palace Master Jing Yan’s commands, for the sake of our Chaos!” Du Ya Ancestor nodded emphatically.

”Now that both Du Ya and I have no objections, then... Yihua Palace Master, Valley Master Qi Ying, and Juefeng Mountain Master, what about you three?” Ma Yi Ancestor looked at the three of them.

He did not ask Nuwa Palace Master.

Because being a member of Hongjun Heavenly Palace, whether or not Jing Yan becomes the Chaos Leader, Nuwa Palace Master is sure to follow Palace Master Jing Yan’s orders, so there is no need to ask needlessly.

Yihua Palace Master and the others were a bit contemplative.

They each have their own forces and are leaders of Ultimate Forces. To later honor Jing Yan indeed would take some time to adjust.

”Three of you, please think carefully.”

”If it weren’t for Palace Master Jing Yan intervening in the recent war at the Eastern Domain Main Hall, what would happen to us next? I need not say, for you all understand. Eastern Domain Main Hall would certainly be broken, the three Devouring Sky Clan Fortresses occupying Eastern Domain Main Hall, advancing and retreating freely, directly threatening the Ultimate Land. Not only will there be a large threat from Devouring Sky Clan creatures, but also the terrifying apostle, an extremely dangerous individual. Furthermore, Yin Mountain Ancestor, if not for Palace Master Jing Yan’s appearance, Yin Mountain Ancestor would likely join the apostle and their backing Dao Master. Facing such power, the Ultimate Land may not withstand it. What reason do the three of you have to hesitate? If the Endless Chaos is destroyed, what meaning would everything we hold now have?” Ma Yi Ancestor’s voice was deep.

”Ma Yi Ancestor, I find electing Palace Master Jing Yan to lead us very suitable. My Luoshui Divine Palace vows to follow Palace Master Jing Yan’s orders.” Yihua Palace Master was the first to speak.

Valley Master Qi Ying, seeing Yihua Palace Master’s agreement, also nodded his consent.

Juefeng Mountain Master’s face was somewhat grim. He didn’t like Jing Yan, but given the current Endless Chaos situation, upon considering Ma Yi Ancestor’s words, realized they were hardly alarmist. If there’s no unity, this Chaos might not endure long.

”Boundaryless Spirit Mountain also vows to follow Palace Master Jing Yan’s commands.” Juefeng Mountain Master nodded as well.

Thus, the Title Controllers present reached a consensus, all willing to follow Jing Yan’s orders.

”Ladies and gentlemen!”

”Even if you are willing, this matter might not carry through. Within Endless Chaos, the Title Controllers are not limited to just a few of us. How others think, we do not know. When the Eastern Domain Main Hall faced the Devouring Sky Clan army threat, none of those people came to resist Devouring Sky Clan creatures. Among them, many don’t seem too concerned about Endless Chaos’s safety; making them subordinate to another would be challenging, wouldn’t it?” Jing Yan spoke.

”Palace Master Jing Yan, this matter is not one that can be completed in a day. It requires gradual progress. Here we have seven Title Controllers, while across the whole Endless Chaos, there are currently just over a dozen. We account for nearly half. By reaching consensus here, we form a stable framework, and the next steps are expanding this acceptance. Besides, among Chaos those few most powerful Chaos Countries might all be inclined to accept Palace Master Jing Yan’s leadership.” Ma Yi Ancestor said.

”Palace Master Jing Yan, please do not decline further. Your strength is unmatched; for Chaos, please shoulder this heavier responsibility!” Du Ya Ancestor said firmly.

”To lead Chaos, Palace Master Jing Yan cannot merely be called the Palace Master of Hongjun Heavenly Palace. I believe we should refer to Jing Yan as Zun Jing.” Valley Master Qi Ying said.

”Zun Jing... This is good! However, the former apostle mentioned that they have a Tao Master behind them, Tao Master, Lord of All Paths, above Great Dao, haha... Why not call him Jing Yan Daoist!” Ma Yi Ancestor’s eyes brightened.
