Chapter 965: Over and Above Common Sense, The End of Chaos (Part 2)
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“Why am I actually compatible with the power of chaos? It is right to say that we are indeed on the same page from the perspective of “chaos,” but at least in terms of “good” and “evil,” we should be just like fire and water, completely incompatible! I’ve clearly burned up just now, haven’t I?”
Sui Xiong was grumbling inwardly but on the outside, his hands did not dare show any signs of slacking off. He was still putting in his best to defuse Chaos’ attacks, and at the same time, he was repeatedly trying to cut small pieces from its body which he would swallow, analyze, dissolve, and then absorb.
Completely absorbable, without any residue.
“What the heck!”
Sui Xiong felt that a problem had arisen from the common sense that he had accumulated in this world for so many years. Could it be that in this world, order and chaos, as well as good and evil, were not two sets of contrasting attributes?
Why was such a bizarre situation appearing before him?
“I think… I may have met with a fake Chaos. Or maybe… I’m in fact, not a good god?
Sui Xiong could not help starting to feel a little doubtful about his life.
Fortunately, at this point in time, the traditional “self-comfort” skill played its role in warning him that he should cast these doubts aside for the time being.
It did not matter whether this Chaos before him was an imposter or not. And it also did not even matter whether he himself was not a good god. Anyway, so long as people led safe and stable lives every day, so long as there was world peace, what else mattered?
The great mentors had taught us that the doctrines would not put food on our plates—ahem, did the great mentors really teach this? Would it not be like those ridiculous sayings like, “the most terrible thing in the world is to lose the courage to face up to difficulties—Einstein,” which were purely gimmicks to hoodwink the people?
For a moment, Sui Xiong was also slightly shaken.
If he was in a safe situation, perhaps he would ponder it for a few hours with a worried expression, or maybe a few days. It would not be surprising if he were to spend a few years pondering. But at this moment, he was at the frontline of the battle, protecting the world against Chaos. Even if he had a thousand doubts, ten thousand distractions, he had to finish this fight with Chaos first.
“Yes! I will finish this battle first. After I’m done with this battle, I’ll return home to get married…”
“Ptooey, ptooey, Ptooey!”
Sui Xiong spat several times in his heart to drive away these thoughts and re-focus his attention on the battle.
But now, the battle with Chaos was no longer as difficult as before.
Because he did not have to worry about being eroded by the chaotic attributes, he could even turn the tables and devour the power of Chaos. Throughout the battle, he continuously cut off pieces of Chaos and swallowed these morsels into his stomach. The pieces he swallowed were then transformed into his own power.
His approach was becoming increasingly apparent. Even the gods could see that something was wrong.
“That Void Mask fellow… What is wrong with him? He seems to be cutting pieces off of Chaos and stomaching everything…”
“Ah, you saw that too. And here I am thinking that it was just an illusion…”
“Chaos’ power is just like lethal poison to us gods, why doesn’t he seem to care at all?”
“Who knows. He has already done so many weird things anyway. I won’t be surprised if he does something strange again.”
“That’s quite true.”
Yorgaardman managed to find time to return to the Dragon of Chaos, and with the use of divine thoughts, he asked, “Old Dragon, my brother, he… Is everything alright?”
“Could it be that you wish for something to go wrong?” the Dragon of Chaos asked in return.
“Of course not! It’s just that… Won’t he be poisoned if he swallows those pieces of Chaos’?”
“Though you are human and he’s a jellyfish, his brain is far more useful than yours. Something like this that even you can think of, why wouldn’t he have also thought of it?” the Dragon of Chaos asked bluntly in return without bothering to be polite at all.
The God of Justice wrinkled his brows a few times. He felt that this remark was indeed justified, so he no longer struggled to dwell on this matter.
Something that even he could figure out, for someone as smart as Auscar—or rather, for such a smart jellyfish, how could he have not thought of it?
It had to be because Yorgaardman was too simple-minded, and he neglected something important. That was why he would have such a doubt.
Yes, that was right!
And now, outside the Wheel of Order that was far away from him, the Master of Order suddenly gave a little smile.
“This really surprised me,” he said. “Our dear little friend, the jellyfish, has once again surprised us.”
The God of Light, of course, was also paying close attention to the battle against Chaos. And at this moment, he wore a somber expression and did not utter a single word.
“If this goes on, who knows, we’ll soon be ushering in another greater Divine Power,” said the Master of Order. “And this will be an even more powerful existence. One that has the combination of three kinds of powers, the power of chaos, goodness and evil. It will be a greater existence that can cross insurmountable borders.”
“So what?” the God of Light asked him back in a cold voice.
“Nothing much, I just find it interesting,” the Master of Order said calmly. “Though this was out of my expectations, thinking about it carefully, this is actually not that bad. Let’s put it this way… a greater Divine Power that can embrace both goodness and evil is a huge improvement for this world.”
“You really believe that goodness and evil can be embraced together?” the God of Light asked him back.
The Master of Order was silent and did not answer.
At this very moment, it was meaningless to saying anything against his conscience.
“Anyway, I don’t believe it,” the God of Light simply said. “Order and Chaos, goodness and evil, these are all natural enemies. Tolerating existences with hostile attributes does not mean that anyone can encompass them all into one body. Even if it’s Auscar, I don’t think he will be able to do so either.”
“Perhaps you mean to say that a long, long time ago, during the era before that of the Great Circulation, the world was not divided into four camps. But even for that world, there still existed various kinds of attributes, and these attributes also did not go well with each other,” said the God of Light. Of course, he knew about this thing that happened “before this era.” He went on to say, “Earth, water, wind and fire—the relationship shared by these four fundamental elements was never compatible. Needless to say, that of the conflict between matter and spirit… Previously, the reason as to why the earlier era would end and the era of the Great Circulation began, was it not due to the conflict between matter and spirit?”
Speaking up to this point, he suddenly smiled mysteriously and asked in a low voice, “Am I right? The king of the spiritual world had abandoned himself to integrate into the world. Then finally, he became an existence that gained greater benefits than the King of Four Elements of the material world.”
The body of the Master of Order shook violently as he took two steps back.
“So it turns out you have already guessed who we are,” he said.
“What’s so difficult to guess? Masters won’t be born without any reason. If you all really are existences given birth by the Great Circulation, then no matter what, you all should not venture further than the King of Four Elements, who’s a step ahead of you all in leaving. Since the kings of the material world could live through all the explosions and chaos caused by the Great Circulation, then there should be no reason for the kings in the spiritual world to be completely annihilated. With these two reasons in mind, the answer, of course, is apparent,” said the Master of Order as a look of slyness flashed in his eyes. “The only problem is, exactly what way you are going to use so that you will be a step ahead of the kings of the material world and dominate this new world?”
The Master of God lowered his head. And for the first time, there was a light that shone brightly in his eyes.
Grasping the gap where there was some chaotic confusion going on because the identity of the Master of Order had been disclosed, the figure of the God of Light suddenly shook and disappeared right before the eyes of the Master of God.
The next moment, the God of Light appeared on the battlefield of the war against Chaos where he hovered in the air above Chaos.
“You are already a completely old and useless thing. Contribute the last of your power and crown the king of the new era!” the God of Light coldly scolded and directly rushed over to Chaos. He paid no heed to the various attacks that Chaos was launching in his direction. He stuck an outstretched arm deep within Chaos’ body and pulled out a mass of substance that was like black ink.
At this time, the figure of the Master of Order also followed closely behind and appeared on the battlefield. Ignoring everyone, he only yelled loudly, “Stop!” At the same time, he charged towards the God of Light, wanting to stop the latter’s next course of action.
But the Master of Order was still a step too slow after all.
Right before the moment he reached them, the God of Light shoved that mass of black stuff, which was still dripping with revolting and strange liquid into his mouth. Then he swallowed everything in one mouthful.
