King Of Chaos

Before Ye Xiao pulled him on the platform, Xiao Qin had discovered the Mystic Ink Fruit Tree. He had already pulled the entire tree out of the ground and stored it inside a special storage bag that had a small land inside. That storage bag could store living beings easily, so, storing the Mystic Ink Fruit Tree and keeping it alive inside that storage bag was not difficult.

With the Mystic Ink Fruit Tree in hand, all Xiao Qin needs to do is take good care of it, and in a few thousand years, when this tree will bear fruit again, he’ll obtain so much benefit that his strength will skyrocket instantly. At that time, he might already have the strength to face his father and win the battle.

Xiao Qin then started waiting for Ye Xiao to come out. The landscape that had stopped shrinking had once again started to shrink. It was clear that Ye Xiao was cultivating once again.

According to Ye Xiao, this place will soon disappear. This also means that the time this place disappears will be the time Ye Xiao will come out of seclusion. At that time, he could talk to Ye Xiao and try to make Ye Xiao side with him.

He has no idea whether Ye Xiao will agree or not, but the least he can do is try his luck.

And so, he started waiting for Ye Xiao to come out.

Since he was already inside the Myriad Plane Dimensions, he decided to explore this place. Although this place was constantly shrinking, there was still a vast land ahead that could not be completely explored even in a hundred years. The landscape was extremely vast after all.

While Xiao Qin started exploring the leftover Myriad Plane Dimensions, other people who entered the Secret Realm started leaving one after another. There was no hesitation in their heart, for they valued their life more than some treasure found inside the secret realm. 𝚍ｏ𝚟𝚕.ｏｒｇ

Ye Xiao was sitting cross-legged atop the platform with his eyes closed in deep concentration. Around him, the air seemed to shimmer with an otherworldly energy. He was cultivating while absorbing the ‘Essence of the King’.

As he absorbed the Essence of the King and inhaled deeply, his every breath felt charged with an electrifying vitality. The ‘Essence of the King’ flowed through him, like a river of molten gold, surging and pulsating. It was as if the very Essence of the King had taken residence within him. With each passing moment, he could feel the Chaos Energy coursing through his veins, infusing every fiber of his being.

His body was also undergoing a profound transformation under the effect of ‘Origin Energy’ developed from the change brought in Myriad Plane Dimensions. His skin tingled as if a thousand tiny needles pricked him gently, and his every pore seemed to open, greedily drinking in the essence. It was as if his body recognized the power of the ‘Essence of the King’ and ‘Origin Energy’, and welcomed them with open arms.

As time passed, he could sense his body changing. His muscles rippled and expanded, his bones grew denser, and his senses became sharper. It was like he was shedding the limitations of his old self and becoming something greater. The ‘Essence of the King’ was unlocking the hidden potential within him, a potential he had never been aware of.

What was this potential?

How does it feel like?

Ye Xiao could only answer in one word: Strange!

He had a feeling that he had grasped something new or maybe something very old. It is just that he had no idea it was inside his body.

Every minute felt like an eternity, every second an eternity as he bathed in the ‘Essence of the King.’ He knew that this process was irreversible, that he was forever bound to this power. And as he sat there, on that platform, he couldn’t help but smile.

Hours turned into days, days into weeks, weeks into months, and months into years. And still, Ye Xiao remained on the platform, his cultivation uninterrupted. The ‘Essence of the King’ was now a tempest within him, a roaring sea of Chaos Energy. It pulsed and surged, a living force of unimaginable power.

With each passing moment, Ye Xiao could feel his strength growing. It was a gradual, constant ascent like a river steadily carving a canyon through the mountains. His limbs felt like they were infused with the might of the titans, and his thoughts were as clear as a polished mirror. He was becoming a living weapon.

The world around him seemed to slow as his perception heightened. He could see the subtlest movements of the leaves on faraway trees, hear the heartbeat of a bird millions of miles away, and sense the intentions of those who were wandering around. It was as if he had become one with the world.

Even though his eyes were closed, Ye Xiao could still see Xiao Qin clearly and observe what he was doing. All he needed to do was focus slightly and the world around him would tell him everything.

The hidden potential within him had already been awakened. Now, Ye Xiao knows why he felt very strange previously. It is because his hidden potential was a very foreign yet familiar bloodline.

He has no idea what this new or old bloodline is, but he knows it is on a completely different level than the Heavenly Demon Bloodline and the Bloodline of Calamity.

When Ye Xiao first obtained the Heavenly Demon Bloodline, he felt a sense of disgust from the Bloodline of Calamity. It was as if the Bloodline of Calamity was looking down on the Heavenly Demon Bloodline.

The same was happening now.

The new bloodline he awakened gave Ye Xiao a sense of disgust toward his two old bloodlines. It was just like a King looking down on his subjects.

Ye Xiao had no idea what to think of it. Anyway, for the time being, he could not control this bloodline just like how he could not control the Bloodline of Calamity when he first obtained it.

As Ye Xiao absorbed the final drop of the Essence of the King, a profound change surged within him. The Rules of Chaos coursed through his body in threads. But then, an unexpected obstruction emerged. It was as though an invisible barrier stood guard at the entrance to his inner ‘Universe,’ preventing these threads from entering.

Those threads do not seem to be pleased, they tried to collide with the universe and forcefully enter, however, their every attempt proved to be futile.

With each futile attempt of the Rules of Chaos to penetrate his ‘Universe,’ Ye Xiao experienced excruciating pain deep within his abdomen. It was a pain that felt like a relentless storm, an unyielding force that he had to endure. He couldn’t immediately discern the reason behind this resistance, but he knew instinctively that something was amiss.

The pain intensified with each failed entry, a searing reminder that whatever lay beyond that barrier was not meant to be embraced. It was a safeguard against harm, a defense his universe had erected to shield the inner worlds from potential threats.

Ye Xiao gritted his teeth with a resolve to withstand this agony, for he understood that the Universe within him must remain untainted. He also knew that the defense was not initiated by the Lotus of Chaos, it was the doing of the Universe itself.

As the Rules of Chaos continued to be rebuffed, they gathered outside, twisting and merging into a radiant, spherical formation. This ball of energy shone with an intensity that both intrigued and worried Ye Xiao. It was as if the Rules of Chaos were regrouping, forming a power that he had never encountered before.

Ye Xiao watched this spectacle with a mixture of curiosity and wariness. He knew that whatever this radiant sphere represented, it held significance beyond his current comprehension.

As time passed, the shiny ball made by the Rules of Chaos outside Ye Xiao’s ‘Universe’ kept changing. It blinked and got brighter. It was as if these threads were finding a new way to get through like water finding its way around rocks in a stream. Ye Xiao was amazed at how strong it was.

“Urgh!”

The pain in his stomach didn’t stop. It felt like a constant reminder of a big fight happening right outside his Universe. This pain made him feel tired, and he knew he had to be strong to keep his ‘Universe’ safe. Every time the Rules of Chaos tried to get in, the pain got worse. It made Ye Xiao sweat a lot, and his breath was fast and heavy. But he knew he couldn’t give up.

This was a test he had to go through.

The shining ball outside started to look alive. It was glowing so much that it seemed unreal. Ye Xiao felt deep inside that this was not something normal. It was like many powers coming together, like different rivers joining into a big one.

With great caution, Ye Xiao reached out with his senses toward the shining ball. He could feel it shaking.
