King Of Chaos

Everyone was stunned when Elder Fan swore such a poisonous oath. Everyone here knew what it meant to swear upon the Grand Dao of Chaos.

If even a single word of Elder Fan is wrong, he'll die immediately. He could not be saved by any means. Even if he hides at a place where the Grand Dao of Chaos could not find him, the Rules he has comprehended will take action against his body and soul, and end up killing him.

However, it was exactly because Elder Fan swore this kind of oath that everyone finally believed his words.

It turned out that such a mysterious person actually existed.

How could someone at the First Stage of the Celestial Awakening Realm fight and almost kill a Celestial Sovereign of Chaos at the Fifth Stage?

Such a thing was never heard of.

"Elder Fan, we all know your loyalty to our sect. We know you'll not lie when it comes to the safety of our Divine Monarch Sect. There is no need to swear such a poisonous oath!"

"Exactly! Although we had our hesitations and disbelief, but we would have ended up believing you later. Why did you swear an oath upon the Grand Dao of Chaos? If, by any chance, even a single word was a lie, you would have met your doom."

"Leave it. It is good as long as nothing happens to Elder Fan. Otherwise, our sect would have lost a powerful Celestial Sovereign in such a menacing situation."

Several elders spoke up. But they all knew if not for the oath, even though they would have supported Elder Fan, they would not have believed him completely.

Elder Fan also understood this. He did not say anything, he simply looked at the Sect Leader.

After contemplating for a long time, the Sect Leader finally spoke, "He might be hiding his cultivation base from your eyes with the help of a unique treasure, or the situation might be different from what we are imagining. No matter what the truth is, that person has become someone we need to be wary of, at least until Lord Celestial Sovereign comes out."

"It is also good since he is not here. As long as he is not here, we can stay in relief. However, once he comes, remember to attend to him more seriously. At the same time, keep a close eye on him but do not let him sense that we are watching his every move!"

Every elder agreed and nodded. They expressed their statement, saying, "Understood, Sect Leader!"

.....

Far away from the Divine Monarch Sect, there was a deep mountain valley. This valley had a clear stream of water running through it.

On the two sides of the stream, an expanse of dark trees could be seen.

Ling Xiaolong was sitting under a huge black tree by the side of the stream. His expression was painful as he was trying to suppress the overflowing energy within his body.

This energy was mysterious and appeared without warning.

Had Ling Xiaolong known, he would have been prepared for the attack of such an overflowing energy.

He knew that everything started because of the Lotus of Chaos that shot out a stream of energy which was later devoured by his mysterious bloodline, resulting in the appearance of such an overflowing vivacity within his body that he felt like exploding.

In fact, had he not let out two waves of strong energy from his body in the form of powerful punches that almost killed Elder Fan, he was afraid countless cracks might have appeared on his body by now.

It was becoming more and more painful with every passing second.

If someone could look at Ling Xiaolong at this moment, they would have seen a steaming person.

However, the steam was not the air steam but incredibly pure energy that could transform into any type of energy including but not limited to Spirit Energy, Chaos Energy, Celestial Energy, and even Origin Energy.

The nature of this pure energy lies was very strange. It'll change depending on the person absorbing this energy.

If a Master of Chaos is absorbing, this pure energy will transform into Origin Energy. If a Celestial Being is absorbing, this energy will transform into Celestial Energy, and so on.

Ling Xiaolong was the source of this pure energy. He was being overflowed, so much that his body had no place to store energy. In the end, this pure energy started escaping from his body through his pores.

However, Ling Xiaolong did not have the luxury called time to care about the escaping pure energy. He had to first take some action in order to calm this overflowing energy.

He immediately started circulating his cultivation technique, the Three Cycle Mastery.

To his surprise, not long after, his cultivation broke through. Ling Xiaolong was now a Second Stage Celestial Awakening Realm warrior.

Nonetheless, this was not the end.

Time started passing. Day after day and week after week. Very soon, a month passed.

In a short period of a month, Ling Xiaolong's cultivation had risen to the Seventh Stage of Celestial Awakening Realm.

However, it had not ended. The increase in his cultivation continued.

If someone is to ask Ling Xiaolong, what is the reason behind such a major occurrence?

Ling Xiaolong would have cursed loudly and said, "It is all because of that damn lotus. It is causing trouble for me!"

Yes, it was all trouble for Ling Xiaolong.

He was not happy just because of the increase in his cultivation. He was unhappy because this elevation of his cultivation that could have been a blessing for other people was day and night torture for Ling Xiaolong.

There was not a single moment in this period of the month when his body and spirit were not painful.

Yes, it was so painful that even his soul started to feel tired.

Why was it so painful?

It is because, regardless of the amount he absorbed and converted into Celestial Energy, this unending source of energy kept appearing within Ling Xiaolong's body.

Ling Xiaolong still had no idea why it kept appearing, but he could guess that it had something to do with the mysterious bloodline and the Lotus of Chaos.

Ling Xiaolong had already made up his mind to ask the Lotus of Chaos sternly why this situation suddenly occurred. However, he could ask only after dealing with the current situation.

For now, he could only focus on absorbing as much pure energy as he could, transform it into Celestial Energy, and keep breaking through.

One point worth taking note of was that along with his every breakthrough, the limit of his personal chaos was increasing. His personal Chaos was also expanding non-stop.

While it might be a painful experience for Ling Xiaolong, for the creatures within his personal chaos, it was a feast. This feast had been ongoing for thousands of years, showing no sign of coming to an end.

The creature inside his Chaos was becoming stronger with each passing second. There was a surge of all kinds of energy throughout his Chaos, of course, Origin Energy was not present because of the limit.

Ling Xiaolong continued to endure the pain. He knew he had to, he had no choice. If he gives up now, he'll end up losing a lot.

Ling Xiaolong exerted all his effort to circulate the Three Cycle Mastery. However, he struggled to maintain the circulation amid tremendous pain, having no choice but to divide his attention.

This, in turn, hindered his speed.

Due to tremendous pain, Ling Xiaolong felt his body breaking. Every part of his body, his every bone and muscle, tendon and pore, everything about him was crumbling because of the presence of excess energy.

If he soon does not find a way to deal with the overwhelming pure energy, he is afraid he might explode and die right there.

"Looks like I have to borrow some help!"

Ling Xiaolong sighed. He does not want to borrow help from the Timeless Enlightenment Seed that was sleeping in his Enlightenment Origin Sea. Merely gazing inside, even with his Divine Sense, triggers an onslaught of the ocean of Comprehensive Energy, forcing him into a mysterious state of enlightenment. During such moments, without precaution, he risks falling into an eternal slumber.

However, the current situation forced him to seek help from the Timeless Enlightenment Seed.

Without its help, Ling Xiaolong was afraid that he might not be able to endure the onslaught of tremendous pain that his body was enduring constantly because of the overflowing pure energy.

He knew that only by entering the state of enlightenment would he escape from the pain and circulate his cultivation technique in the right manner.

Ling Xiaolong still did not dare to take a direct peek into his Enlightenment Origin Sea. He used his Divine Sense to dart a quick look inside, used the Devouring Ability and Calamitic Shroud to devour a few strands of Comprehensive Energy and shroud them into a Calamitic Sphere so as not to let those few strands escape, and finally extracted them out of the Enlightenment Origin Sea.

"Now, it is time to cultivate properly!"
