King Of Chaos

Chapter 474 Ch 474: Back To The Chaos

?In the infinite expanse of darkness where there was nothing, a crack suddenly appeared.

Ling Xiaolong jumped out of the crack, and without waiting for a second, shattered the void once again using the Void Shattering Spear, created a new rupture, and entered. Very soon, the rupture also closed.

About an hour later, ripples appeared at the same place. It was as if these ripples were looking for someone. A few moments later, Abyssal Energy swarmed out of nowhere, manifesting into an outline of a giant.

Although this giant’s figure could not be seen, if Ling Xiaolong was here, he could have recognized the person from the outline. It was the Abyss Emperor.

“His traces end here. He must have emerged from the rupture here and then escaped again. He must have known that even if he escapes through a rupture, I may locate him. That’s why he created a diversion, or maybe several diversions, to make it impossible for us to find him. He truly is a calculative little fox.”

The Abyss Emperor shook his head, transformed back into a mass of dark energy, and then disappeared.

…..

“Finally here!”

It has been more than a hundred years since Ling Xiaolong escaped from the clutches of the Abyss Emperor and the Tree of Abyss. Due to the destruction of the Abyss, he was already in the infinite expanse of darkness where countless Cosmic Fields like Chaos and the Abyss are flourishing.

Finding the Chaos was very difficult without coordinates. In fact, it is impossible for countless people.

However, Ling Xiaolong was sure that the Chaos must not be far from the Abyss. After all, only when Abyss is near could Abyssals infiltrate the Chaos.

He had been looking for Chaos for a hundred years. In the end, relying on the Primordial Origin Bloodline that originated from the Tree of Chaos, he finally traced the Chaos and arrived in front of this giant Cosmic Field.

After all, since the Primordial Origin Bloodline originated from the Tree of Chaos, and was specially given to Ling Xiaolong, this bloodline still had bonds with the Tree of Chaos. Although challenging, he managed to rely on this bond to locate the Cosmic Field he is from.

Now, the question was, how to enter.

There were 108 Layers of Cosmic Membranes blocking outsiders from entering the Chaos. Every Layer of Cosmic Membrane was created from 108 Rules of Chaos. Furthermore, even if he somehow passes through 108 Layers of Cosmic Membrane, he’ll be stopped by the 36 Layers of Celestial Boundary which was created by the Tree of Chaos to stop invaders.

He knew entering the Chaos from outside was not going to be easy. However, he still had hopes given that he hails from the Chaos and understands all 108 Rules thoroughly. Relying on these Rules, passing through the 108 Layers of Cosmic Membrane and 36 Layers of Celestial Boundary should not be difficult.

Taking a deep breath, Ling Xiaolong took a deep breath and extended his hand, touching the First Layer of Cosmic Membrane from outside. .

Rumble~

The moment he touched the Cosmic Membrane, he felt the entire Chaos rumbling.

All of a sudden, a green root pierced out of the Cosmic Membrane, wrapped around him and pulled him inside.

Everything happened too quickly, startling Ling Xiaolong.

When Ling Xiaolong came back to his senses, he found himself standing in front of a giant tree. Every part of this tree was filled with Primordial Runes exuding another level of charm. The tree was so huge that capturing its entire body in the eyes was simply impossible.

This was the Tree of Chaos.

Obviously, the moment he touched the Cosmic Boundary, as its Ethereal Guardian, the Tree of Chaos sensed him. Knowing it was him, Ling Xiaolong, the Tree of Chaos personally acted and brought him inside.

To his surprise, Queen was also there, looking at him with a pretty smile on her face.

“I have been waiting for you for so long. I never expected you to actually be out of the Chaos. How did you do it? Where have you been?”

Ling Xiaolong first calmed down. Then he described his experiences in detail, startling Queen. She never expected him to actually fight the Abyss Emperor and even face the Tree of Abyss. But he still came out alive.

As expected of the chosen one!

Queen couldn’t help but sigh.

She explained to Ling Xiaolong that she had searched everywhere for him but couldn’t even find a trace. Eventually, she had no choice but to seek help from the Tree of Chaos. That’s when she discovered that even the Tree of Chaos couldn’t locate him.

This could only mean one of two things: either he was dead or beyond the jurisdiction and influence of the Tree of Chaos.

Regardless of the scenario, it’s deeply unsettling. If he’s deceased, it implies the end of the Chaos. And if he’s somehow slipped beyond the Tree of Chaos’s reach, the chances of his return are exceedingly slim.

To this, Ling Xiaolong could only laugh bitterly. He never expected to teleport out of the Chaos and find himself in the Abyss directly. Even more surprising was the revelation of various truths, including but not limited to why he was chosen by the Tree of Chaos, the existence of Cosmic Fields, and the infinite expanse of darkness beyond Chaos.

Despite the Abyss Emperor having already disclosed much, which likely is the truth, Ling Xiaolong still sought confirmation from the Tree of Chaos itself.

In the end, the Tree of Chaos affirmed that everything he learned from the Abyss Emperor was indeed true.

Lastly, Ling Xiaolong asked about the situation of Chaos.

“The situation there is dire,” the Queen sighed heavily. “Tens of thousands of Lands have fallen to the Abyssals. They’ve decimated powerful forces and seized control of the Great Teleportation Formation. They’re utilizing it for something horrifying. Once, I attempted to intervene, but I felt an ominous gaze fixate upon me. Yes, I am very strong, but that gaze was beyond monstrous—something I can never forget. I’ve been thinking all this while, and I’m sure that no Master of Chaos or Master of Abyss possesses such a chilling presence. Whatever entity those eyes belonged to, if it indeed breached the Chaos, saving the Chaos at that time will prove immensely challenging.”

Ling Xiaolong’s expression turned serious. If Queen is saying this, it is definitely the truth.

In her words, the owner of those chilling eyes has definitely surpassed the strength a Master of Chaos or a Master of Abyss could possess.

Doesn’t it mean that there is yet another existence who has stepped into the Realm of Kings?

Ling Xiaolong’s breathing became hurried and he knew that his current strength was not enough. He has to become stronger, much stronger than the Abyss Emperor.

It was at this time that Queen took out something and gave it to Ling Xiaolong, saying, “Absorb it and you’ll be able to raise your cultivation all the way to Level 36 of Master of Chaos.”

Ling Xiaolong was stunned for a moment. What Queen gave Ling Xiaolong was an adult’s hand-sized crystal. On the surface, this crystal seemed to be contaminated by a fiendish aura, but he could feel an extremely pure essence inside. It was as if there was a pond of Pure Essence sealed inside this crystal.

“What is this crystal?”

Ling Xiaolong could not help but ask while taking a deep breath. He had never heard of a treasure that could raise a Master of Chaos’s cultivation directly to Level 36.

“This is the Shadow Fiend Origin Crystal,” Queen understood Ling Xiaolong’s doubt and started explaining, “There is a very unique race in Chaos called the Shadow Fiend Race. They have no natural enemy other than the Chaos Beasts. Even powerhouses at the level of Masters of Chaos from the Shadow Fiend race have fallen under the claws of Chaos Beasts. The hatred between them has grown deeper and deeper throughout the ages and has reached an unimaginable level.”

“I took advantage of this hatred, provided a little help to the Shadow Fiend Race, and obtained the Shadow Fiend Origin Crystal.”

Although she said that she had provided a little help, Ling Xiaolong could understand that this little must not be small. She must have helped the Shadow Fiend Race in doing something extraordinary.

He did not interrupt Queen, letting her continue to explain.

“Countless Masters of Chaos have appeared in the Shadow Fiend Race throughout ages. The Shadow Fiend Origin Crystal is their creation. Whenever a Master of Chaos is deeply injured by a Chaos Beast and knows that they don’t have much longer to live, they refine their Origin Energy and Soul Essence and seal them into the Shadow Fiend Origin Crystal. After eons of continuous process, the Origin Energy has long transformed into Origin Essence, and the Soul Essence has become much thicker. These are enough to allow you to go through several nirvanas continuously without effort. It’ll just take time!”

“At first, I wanted to steal the Shadow Fiend Origin Crystal, but then I decided to help them instead. In the end, I helped them a ‘little’ and exchanged the Shadow Fiend Origin Crystal with another treasure that they needed the most.”

Ling Xiaolong’s eyes flashed and he spoke up: “Vitality!
