Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 4237 - Rampage in the Inverse

"It feels like order fragments!" When the red stream entered the Plundering Eye, Tianming felt a sensation similar to that of absorbing order fragments into his body to nourish his own order. This red stream of dazzling radiance liquefied and spread throughout the order in all his body.

"However, dazzling radiance feels much more intense than order fragments. It's pushing against my own order!" The instant the red stream reached all ten streams of Tianming's order, he suddenly felt like he was under a huge waterfall. "To think that it would be so intense even as I'm absorbing it with the Plundering Eye..."

Tianming was worried that even those in the Realm of Order wouldn't be able to use this. Perhaps it was something that only sky plunderers could take advantage of.

"Phew!" After getting used to the initial rush, he soon got used to it and began to use Daosteal to control the intensity of the dazzling radiance as it entered his body, gradually releasing them into his ten streams of order. The orders that were dormant devoured the radiance like hungry wolves. "Maybe the absorption is going along so steadily because it's been a while since my last breakthrough and my orders have stabilized a lot..."

As long as things were stable, everything was fine. Tianming no longer worried and let himself absorb and digest the benefits of the radiance. Even though his streams of order wasn't able to control the chaotic power in his body, he was still happy to see them grow.

"I do wonder what happens after they grow. Can order be used to transform the body and break through in the Realm of Chaos?" Though he was curious about it, it didn't look like Li Tianzi and Mu Qingqing had any issues with that, so he wasn't too worried.

In time, the dazzling radiance that Li Tianzi had brought him shrunk more and more. The orders in Tianming's body, on the other hand, grew in proportion. The order of cosmic gods from a hundred to a thousand meters in height manifested as stars. Ten Ten bright order-stars expanded within Tianming, glowing radiantly.

"I'm still only a second-level cosmic god. Will I only be able to transform them into order-galaxies at the twelfth level?" He was starting to find his own cultivation rather confusing, so this breakthrough would be a great chance to learn more.

In time, half a year passed before Tianming finished absorbing the dazzling radiance. He wasn't too sure how much his orders had grown, though he had a feeling this was the biggest breakthrough he would ever experience. Though the orders were still in star form, they did glow brighter than some galaxy-class orders.

Tianming opened his eyes and rose. Before him was a gigantic black rock on which a girl in black dress sat. She had sat there for half a year, looking nonstop at Tianming with a gaze that scared him somewhat. He wasn't afraid that she would harm her; he was scared of the notion that someone he didn't care about loved him too much. "Are you not tired of sitting there without moving the whole time?"

"I'm not. I'm used to it," Mu Qingqing said, shaking her head with a satisfied smile.

Tianming reckoned she had done just that before his massive portrait for most of the hundred thousand years she had been waiting. He didn't want to linger on the topic and asked, "What comes after my orders grow? The chaos worldbangle has separated my orders from my cosmoforce, so there's no way for me to cultivate conventionally to stimulate my middlekin astrons to grow and increase my cosmoforce capacity."

Mu Qingqing had been ready for this step. "Even though the energy in the Inverse Battlefield is also chaotic, it's different from what we normally use. We should return to Nullity if you want to break through properly and I'll show you how."

"Got it." Li Tianzi had allowed Tianming to come and go as he pleased. So, he followed the Zero Marker to go from the vast gray continent of the Inverse Battlefield to the dark and distanceless world, heading in the direction of Nullity. Soon, he reemerged somewhere in Nullity's vicinity.

"What's next?" Growing his orders but not breaking through felt too awkward. It was as if he had eaten delicacies but didn't swallow them properly.

"You'll have to convert it using the chaos worldbangle. First, absorb nova source from the Realm of Order and convert it into chaotic power," Mu Qingqing said.

"Are you saying I have to go back to the Sun?" Tianming asked.

"No need. Just absorb it from the entrance of the pathway and convert it there." She was referring to the pathway between the realms.

"Alright. So, I still have to rely on energy from the Realm of Order to break through like always before converting the energy back to chaos."

"That's right." Mu Qingqing looked at her without wavering like usual.

"Why can't I just break through like you Chaos denizens? You guys don't have order, right? Can I just abandon mine and grow by absorbing energy?"

"That won't do. Our constitutions are different. The middlekin astrons in our bodies are inverse versions of what you have."

"Wait, do my father, brother and the rest all use chaos worldbangles to break through?" Tianming asked.

"Yes. Chaos worldbangles belong to your family to begin with. Apart from those of your family, other denizens from the Realm of Order would struggle to survive here for the long term, let alone cultivate."

"Alright." He finally understood some of the basic principles. Mu Qingqing then opened the pathway once more, into which he stepped. There, he had access to the energies of both the Sun and Nullity. He did as he was told and activated the chaos worldbangle before channeling the energies through the codices of his lifebound beasts, absorbing nova source from the Sun with his beasts rapidly. A stream formed in the sky above the Sky Palace Formation and flooded into the pathway towards Tianming.

"This feels good!" He had never broken through like that for a long time. The amount of control his orders had was stunning. When the chaos worldbangle loosened, the chaotic power within him dissipated, being replaced with order-based cosmoforce.
