King Of Chaos

"It has finally been created!"

Ling Xiaolong's eyes were shining brightly with a mixture of awe and satisfaction as he beheld the radiant glow of the Luminous Pearl in his hand. Multicolored light danced and shimmered within the pearl's core, casting a mesmerizing array of hues that illuminated the surrounding space with a celestial brilliance.

Ling Xiaolong could feel a sense of accomplishment surging through him, a profound satisfaction that echoed in the depths of his soul. In that moment, he was filled with wonder and reverence for the beauty and power contained within the Luminous Pearl.

"I shall name you the Soulforge Prism Orb."

This was a Top-grade Ethereal Guardian-ranked treasure, comparable to the Tree of Chaos. However, the Soulforge Prism Orb was not limited to just being an Ethereal Guardian. Engraved on its surface were patterns akin to those Ling Xiaolong had comprehended from the outer surface of the Tower of Wisdom. Remarkably, these patterns were much more intricate and profound.

"As long as I utilize my Absolute Rules on this Soulforge Prism Orb, it will break through the barrier of Ethereal Guardian rank and evolve to the next level," Ling Xiaolong muttered confidently.

This was a treasure Ling Xiaolong spent a thousand years creating on the 100th floor of the Tower of Wisdom. This treasure can be said to be a supreme cheat for the cultivation of the soul.

The purpose behind Ling Xiaolong creating this cheat was not for his own use, he had an entirely different plan in his mind.

Now that he had become a King of Chaos and understood the nine Absolute Rules governing the Infinite Expanse of Darkness, his horizons had broadened to an extreme level. Ling Xiaolong desired to accomplish something extraordinary while also cultivating a disciple.

With his current strength, cultivation, and understanding of the rules, guiding a mortal with zero talent to supremacy posed no difficulty for him whatsoever. He had no requirements for accepting a disciple. Ling Xiaolong could accept any random person as his disciple and elevate them to the pinnacle of power.

Nevertheless, he did not plan to accept a disciple from Chaos. He wanted to accept a disciple from a different Cosmic Field.

Since he wanted to accept a disciple, and his first disciple at that, he had to present a gift to them. The Soulforge Prism Orb would be that gift.

Moreover, the Soulforge Prism Orb was a supreme cheat for anyone walking the path of soul cultivation. This was why Ling Xiaolong planned to accept a disciple from the Cosmic Field called Spiritarium.

The Soulforge Prism Orb was already a supreme treasure and the most unique one, but its value skyrocketed to an extreme level due to the fact that Ling Xiaolong had concealed the Timeless Enlightenment Orb inside it.

With his current strength and understanding of the rules, causing the Timeless Enlightenment Seed to sprout was as simple as waving his hand. However, standing at the apex of a Cosmic Field rendered the Timeless Enlightenment Seed of little use to him. Therefore, Ling Xiaolong decided to gift the Timeless Enlightenment Seed to his soon-to-be disciple as well.

"It is time to leave Chaos!"

Ling Xiaolong kept the Soulforge Prism Orb and sighed.

He wanted to leave Chaos and explore the Infinite Expanse of Darkness. At the same time, he wanted to take care of the Abyss Emperor and the Tree of Abyss.

During this period of time in the Tower of Wisdom, Ling Xiaolong has an epiphany that as long as he understands everything Abyss has to offer, just like Chaos, he can understand the mysterious sensation he had once he devoured the army of Abyssals and a small part of the void of Infinite Darkness.

He still could not forget that sensation of being able to control countless Cosmic Fields and keeping them within his grasp. That sensation was amazing.

In order to understand everything Abyss has to offer, he has to leave Chaos. The simplest method would be to swallow the entire Abyss along with the Abyss Emperor and the Tree of Abyss.

Ling Xiaolong planned to do exactly this.

Although he wanted to leave the Chaos, he did not plan to say goodbye to Queen or anyone else.

Absolute Rules...

These rules are indeed amazing and capable of doing anything.

Ling Xiaolong utilized the Absolute Rule of Creation to craft a clone endowed with the cultivation of the Initial Stage of the King of Chaos, as well as a profound understanding of the 36 Supreme Rules. Not only that, this clone also has a 'Supreme Chaos' inside his body.

Although this was a clone, it was far more than a mere creation summoned through a skill. This clone possessed its own distinct soul, separate from Ling Xiaolong's. It wielded its own free will, capable of independent thought and action. It was an individual entity, having lived Ling Xiaolong's life and undergone every experience from birth until his return from the Abyss.

The only elements missing from this clone were Ling Xiaolong's profound understanding of Absolute Rules, the miniature version of the Infinite Expanse of Darkness, and the Lotus of Chaos with its nine petals.

This was possible only because of the Absolute Rules. Had it not for the Absolute Rules, creating a Cosmic Field so easily would have been much more difficult.

Looking at his clone, Ling Xiaolong smiled and said, "From this day onward, you will be Ling Xiaolong. You must stay in Chaos and safeguard it. Fulfill my promise to Bai Lushi and marry her. And as for Queen, our relationship has always been unique, transcending friendship and nearing that of lovers. Try to improve our relationship with her as well. Live life in my stead."

The clone, let's say him Ling Xiaolong #3, nodded his head and replied with a smile, "I will follow your will. After all, I am you. It's a pity you are not me!"

"Hahahaha!"

Ling Xiaolong laughed loudly and disappeared.

He left the Chaos without saying goodbye to anyone. There was simply no need for the goodbye, since 'he' is still in the Chaos!

╠ Abyss ╣

Abyss Emperor was comfortably sitting on a high throne. Behind the throne, a huge demonic tree was standing proudly, piercing the red clouds in the sky.

This tree was the Tree of Abyss.

Countless Masters of Abyss were kneeling in front of him, asking the Abyss Emperor to act personally and destroy the Chaos. The Beings of Chaos actually dared to kill so many of their Masters of Abyss and even the second King of Abyss who happened to be the only son of the Abyss Emperor.

These Abyssals had no idea how those countless Abyssals died. In fact, their existence seemed to have been wiped out completely. Even the son of the Abyss Emperor, who relied on his father's strength and friendship with the Tree of Abyss to break past the limit of the Abyss as well, was killed.

Yes, these Abyssals do not know, but the Abyss Emperor knew that wiping out so many Abyssals and killing his son must be the doing of Ling Xiaolong.

He had gone against Ling Xiaolong and fought many rounds with him so he knew Ling Xiaolong was not an easy opponent. That is why, he had been silent for more than a thousand years already. He was not a careless person, so he knew he could not afford to make a single mistake while going against Ling Xiaolong.

That is why, he had been carefully planning his next steps all this time.

Unfortunately, he never got the opportunity to set his plans in motion.

Why?

It is because he felt something strange. At this time, even the Tree of Abyss gave out a strong reaction.

Before they could comprehend what was happening, they witnessed a massive mouth looming in the sky. Its lack of a face made it impossible to discern any features—it was simply a vast, gaping maw resembling that of a dragon.

No one was able to resist, not even the all-so-mighty Abyss Emperor and the Tree of Abyss.

Everyone was swallowed!

Everything was devoured!

The existence of the Abyss was wiped out just like that.

Of course, this was the doing of Ling Xiaolong who had just left the Chaos not long ago.

Ling Xiaolong, who was standing in the void beyond the abyss, devoured the abyss and obtained everything the Abyss had to offer.

Abyss and Chaos are the opposite sides of the same coin. Ling Xiaolong had already comprehended the nine Rules of Abyss. Now, after devouring the Abyss itself, his understanding of these nine rules immediately skyrockets, evolving into three Supreme Rules of the Abyss.

The moment he comprehended the three Supreme Rules of Abyss, Ling Xiaolong felt a strange pull and his comprehension of Abyss Supreme Rules started integrating into his understanding of the Absolute Rules.

It was as if a pair of hands were stitching the Supreme Rules of Abyss into the Absolute Rules of Infinite Darkness with the help of an invisible needle and a long invisible thread.
