King Of Chaos

In the spatial zone that seemed to be a vast world of the unknown, Ye Xiao could be seen sitting cross-legged on a rugged stone platform. This stone platform was created beside the previous one where countless Chaos Beasts are trapped by the red-robed man for Ye Xiao to cultivate. The air was thick with a palpable aura, and the atmosphere itself seemed to hum with energy. His eyes were tightly shut as he immersed himself in his cultivation. .

As Ye Xiao concentrated, an intricate array of symbols and patterns mysteriously appeared and enveloped his body, faintly glowing with a dim, grayish hue. He breathed deeply, his breaths synchronized with the flow of the surrounding energy. His hands formed intricate seals, and his fingertips glided over the surface of his body in a pattern that resembled a dance.

This array of symbols and patterns was actually the result of cultivating the Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra, a cultivation technique obtained by Ye Xiao from the Demon Emperor. Ye Xiao had roughly cultivated this technique only once and he never touched it again ever after. However, now that he could cultivate it again, he decided to not continue ignoring it. After all, it doesn’t matter if he could devour Chaos Energy and cultivate without circulating a cultivation technique. With the help of a cultivation technique, a cultivator’s journey becomes much smoother.

As Ye Xiao continued to cultivate, a few months have already passed. His command of this technique deepened. The more he understood this technique, the more he felt how mighty and deep the technique is. The more he cultivated, the more mysterious this technique seemed to have become under his influence and the influence of his Dark Force that came out to help him from time to time on its own.

It was as if this technique was constantly evolving. Maybe, this is how a growth-type cultivation technique works, the more you understand, the more profound it becomes. And this cycle forms a never-ending cycle.

The Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra surged within Ye Xiao’s veins. Each cycle of circulation drew energy from the world around him, funneling it through his meridians like streams of liquid darkness, at the same time, it was causing the appearance of a mysterious array of symbols that circulated above Ye Xiao’s skin. He could feel the potent essence of the technique coursing through his body, invigorating his every cell.

However, the path of cultivation was never a smooth one. As Ye Xiao delved deeper into the practice, he encountered obstacles that tested his limits. The energy within him roiled and surged, occasionally causing him to fluctuate. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead as he grappled with the unpredictable nature of the technique filled with darkness aura.

His progress in cultivating the Absolute Darkness Emperor Surtra could be said to be directly proportional to the Rule of Darkness he has comprehended. With the Dark Force as the rope to pull him forward, he was going deeper and deeper in understanding the nature of the Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra and how it works. It could be said that if he continued to cultivate this technique, he could understand it better than its creator, the Demon Emperor.

In the distance, a spectral figure in a red robe was floating in the air silently, his eyes fixed intently on Ye Xiao. The red-robed man’s gaze held an inscrutable depth, his every movement shrouded in an air of enigma. It was as though his very presence exerted an unseen pressure on the environment.

Ye Xiao’s brow furrowed, his focus remain unbroken despite the growing challenge. He could sense the red-robed man’s presence, an ever-present reminder of the task that lay before him. Although becoming a Major Saint in ten years is extremely difficult and said-to-be an almost impossible task, Ye Xiao had an inexplicable determination to do something that is impossible for others. Only by this could he stay a step away from the people of Chaos.

As Ye Xiao continued his cultivation, his body trembled slightly under the strain. Waves of energy surged within him, threatening to overwhelm his senses. Breaking through to Major Saint Realm could be said to have become desiderium for Ye Xiao. He wanted to complete his breakthrough at once, however, he was finding it extremely difficult to progress further in cultivation. As time continued to pass, Ye Xiao even had a feeling that ten years is very short for cultivation. He might not be able to complete the first task.

Before when the red-robed man gave him this task, Ye Xiao thought that although it might be extremely difficult to accomplish for other people, he might be able to do this because of his inexplicable tricks where he could simply devour the Chaos Energy if needed. However, only now did he understand that in this space, he could not do that. He has to cultivate normally and this might be because it is the first task given to him by the red-robed man.

It turned out that this task is not as easy to complete as he had thought of it previously.

Maybe, because the Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra was constantly evolving, just after two years of cultivation, Ye Xiao started feeling discomfort in cultivating it. It started becoming more and more challenging.

But even so, he never gave up. He gritted his teeth and fought back the discomfort, his movements growing more deliberate and controlled. The surroundings itself seemed to respond to his efforts, the very fabric of space rippling in response to the surging power within Ye Xiao’s body.

Time passed in a blur, marked only by the steady rhythm of Ye Xiao’s breaths and the ethereal glow that enveloped him. He persisted, channeling his inner strength and determination into each cycle of the technique. Cultivating Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra has already become a formidable challenge for Ye Xiao by now, but Ye Xiao refused to yield.

Eventually, Ye Xiao’s movements began to slow. His breaths grew shallower, and his body radiated an aura of exhaustion. With great effort, he gradually brought his cultivation practice to a halt, his hands falling to his sides as he slumped forward.

The red-robed man remained motionless, his gaze unwavering as he observed Ye Xiao’s every struggle and triumph. His expression revealed nothing, but an underlying sense of approval seemed to flicker within his eyes.

Ye Xiao panted heavily, beads of sweat dripping onto the stone platform beneath him. He knew that this cultivation session was only the beginning, a mere step on the arduous path he had undertaken. The Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra held immense potential, but harnessing that power required an unwavering spirit and unyielding determination. He needs to continue delving into it for tens… or even hundreds of thousands of years, and maybe even then he might not completely understand this technique because it would have already evolved to an unprecedented level.

As the surrounding fell into a tranquil silence, Ye Xiao’s resolve remained unshaken. Although he was exhausted, he did not stand up to take a breath. He remained seated. He had felt the red-robed man’s presence throughout, an ever-watchful guardian bearing witness to his progress. And while he had not yet achieved the breakthrough he sought, he knew that every trial he endured brought him one step closer to mastering the Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra cultivation technique.

The journey was far from over, and Ye Xiao’s ten-year deadline loomed ahead like an insurmountable peak. Yet, he was undeterred. With each challenge he faced and every obstacle he overcame, he was one step closer to ascending the ranks and becoming a Major Saint Realm warrior.

And so, Ye Xiao continued his quest for greatness, his heart ablaze with the flames of ambition and his spirit unwavering in the face of adversity. The red-robed man’s watchful eyes remained fixed upon him, a silent testament to the trials that awaited and the destiny that beckoned.

Ye Xiao then started thinking about why he was facing so many problems in cultivating the Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra. He was exhausted during the cultivation period several times and beads of sweets covered his body. He felt like not improving many times. His concentration was breaking from time to time.

Why was this happening?

As Ye Xiao contemplated why he was encountering so many problems while cultivating the Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra, he soon arrived at an answer.

“So, that’s the reason. I understand now. I never thought I would one day make an amateur-like mistake in my cultivation!”

Ye Xiao took a deep breath and silently muttered to himself. He comprehended the reason behind the difficulties he faced during cultivation.

It turned out that he had never fully concentrated on his cultivation. He had been aware of the red-robed man watching him, and a part of Ye Xiao’s mind was focused on the red-robed man.

A portion of his mind had also been preoccupied with impressing the red-robed man by demonstrating how effortlessly he could cultivate. This wavering focus led to the challenges he encountered.
