King Of Chaos

Chapter 479 Ch 479: Absolute Rules, King of Chaos

A colossal Golden Lotus hung suspended in the dark expanse of Chaos, casting a radiant shower of golden starlight upon the void below. Beneath this celestial illumination, countless warriors were wholly absorbed in their cultivation, striving to deepen their understanding of the Rules of Chaos.

Above the resplendent Lotus, a colossal crack resembling an evil eye loomed, its presence menacing ominously. Previously, the colossal crack was sealed, but now, the seal was broken, leaving Chaos vulnerable to whatever lay beyond.

An army of Abyssals, far greater in number than those previously invaded in Chaos, floated on the other side of the void. Each one of them appeared fierce and powerful, emanating an aura of strength. Even the weakest among them possessed the formidable presence of a Level 1 Master of Abyss.

Millions of these Masters of Abyss were there, from Level 1 to Level 36. In fact, even a presence far more powerful than a Master of Abyss could be felt there. But no one dared to enter the Chaos even though the seal on the colossal crack had already been lifted.

It is because of the existence standing atop the giant lotus with nine golden petals. This existence was Ling Xiaolong.

Ling Xiaolong's figure could not be seen clearly due to the blinding golden light, however, the shape of his figure could still be outlined. Despite the lack of clarity, the Abyssals sensed a palpable aura emanating from him, a presence that struck fear into their hearts. Ling Xiaolong's current demeanor was so imposing that they dared not advance further, opting instead to hover cautiously on the opposite side of the void.

Ling Xiaolong opened his golden eyes and moved his head, raising his hand and reaching out to the cracked void.

"Devouring The Void Of Darkness!"

As his hand reached out, the blinding golden light suddenly disappeared, overruled by absolute darkness. Out of nowhere, the outline of a giant mouth manifested that bit down the void. The aim of this giant mouth was was the Abyssals hovering beyond the void.

As the mouth bit down, everything seemed to have been devoured, including the fabric of space and time, rules of Chaos, Abyssals, and the one who seemed to have stepped foot in the realm of the King.

Everything happened in an instant. Abyssals were unable to even set their foot in the Chaos before they were completely wiped out.

The darkness slowly faded.

Countless warriors who were immersed in comprehension looked dazed. They had been forcefully woken up when the blinding golden light was devoured by absolute darkness.

The forceful awakening from the state of comprehension was burdensome enough, but when Ling Xiaolong's devouring ability took effect, everyone's mind went completely blank. It is because of a Rule far surpassing the Supreme Chaos Rules.

It was the Absolute Rule of Devouring.

When this rule appeared, its power was so immense that nothing and no one, not even the Tree of Chaos itself, was deemed worthy to witness its might—the might of an Absolute Rule.

Absolute Rules!

There were a total of nine Absolute Rules that Ling Xiaolong comprehended after the Lotus of Chaos upgraded from 36 Petals Lotus to 9 Petals Lotus.

These Nine Absolute Rules are the Rules of Time and Space, Creation and Destruction, Light and Darkness, Life and Death, Yin and Yang, Devour and Slaughter, and finally, Order and Chaos, Progress and Regression, and Redemption and Damnation.

These nine Absolute Rules come in pairs. For example, the Rule of Time and Space is clearly two different Rules. However, when they reach the point of becoming absolute, they are counted as one.

The newly comprehended Absolute Rules were Order and Chaos, Progression and Regression, and Redemption and Damnation.

These three Absolute Rules are truly terrifying, superior to even the Absolute Rules of Time and Space. This was mainly true for the Absolute Rule of Order and Chaos.

When everyone came back to their senses, they felt a sense of emptiness in their hearts. They did not suffer much despite being forcefully awakened and entering a state of emptiness for a few moments, all at once. In fact, their gains overshadowed the backlash. So, no one was disappointed.

However, everyone was astonished. It is due to the disappearance of the Lotus of Chaos.

Yes, the Lotus of Chaos had somehow disappeared. It was not all. Although no one had noticed, even Queen and Bai Lushi had disappeared somehow.

.....

"F*cking Shit!"

Bai Lushi reacted completely out of her character, cursing out loud. Unlike her previous appearance, not even a trace of killing intent or a terrifying aura could be felt from her body. She was like a shocked and curious little girl.

This place was the spatial dimension hidden within the First Layer of Celestial Boundary's 36 Layers.

Ling Xiaolong, Queen, and Bai Lushi were standing right before the giant tree of Chaos.

Obviously, Ling Xiaolong brought them here when he was done devouring everything.

Bai Lushi cursed out loud in surprise because when she came back to her senses, she found herself standing before the Tree of Chaos.

Tree of Chaos is an entity of myth, and its legend surpasses anything the legend of the Lotus of Chaos could ever reach.

Although Queen was also deeply shocked, she was able to control her emotions and thought about the state of blankness she had entered before. She could not help but look at Ling Xiaolong who seemed to be completely different from before.

The current Ling Xiaolong seemed more like a mortal who had never even stepped on the path of cultivation. However, at the same time, standing before Ling Xiaolong gave her a sense of a safe haven, as if even if she were caught in the sudden destruction of Chaos, she would remain unharmed and untouched.

It was not just Queen, even the Tree of Chaos felt the same!

"Xiaolong, you..."

When the three of them completely calmed down, Queen wanted to say something. However, she was interrupted by Ling Xiaolong who nodded and said, "I've become the King of Chaos!"

"H-How?"

Queen found it hard to swallow the fact that Ling Xiaolong had suddenly become a King of Chaos.

How did he do it?

She was sure that Shadow Fiend Origin Crystal could only help him reach Level 36 of the Master of Chaos.

However, not only did Ling Xiaolong reach that step, he easily bypassed the limit set by the Chaos and became a King of Chaos.

Ling Xiaolong looked at the Tree of Chaos before shifting his gaze and spoke, "With the help of Shadow Fiend Origin Crystal, I went through several nirvanas continues and finally advanced to Level 36. At first, even I thought I would stop at that stage. But I was wrong, I was completely wrong."

Ling Xiaolong's blue eyes sparked with golden light. The golden light was too profound. He then explained further, saying, "As you know, I've already comprehended the Supreme Chaos Rules. It turned out the comprehension of at least one Supreme Chaos Rule is the first requirement for a Level 36 Master of Chaos to break the barrier and take the first step forward, becoming the King of Chaos."

"I, as the owner of Supreme Chaos, easily took this step. It was not difficult at all. And when I became the King of Chaos, my Chaos once again went through a huge transformation. Even the Lotus of Chaos evolved once again."

Ling Xiaolong stopped at that. He had given them far more information than needed. He was not planning to tell them about the Absolute Rules.

Why?

There is simply no need to do that. It might sound arrogant, but Ling Xiaolong believed that the Queen, Bai Lushi, and even the Tree of Chaos, are simply unworthy of learning about the Absolute Rules.

They have yet to even understand Supreme Chaos Rules, there is no need to talk about Absolute Rules. Ling Xiaolong believed that they would never be able to learn about the existence of Absolute Rules, let alone comprehend them.

Therefore, Ling Xiaolong stopped there and said no more.

Everyone was once again astonished at the feat Ling Xiaolong had achieved.

However, they quickly frowned. They all are beings standing at the apex. No one was more powerful than them in the entire Chaos. They've also lived for far too long. How can they not notice something very important that Ling Xiaolong had hinted at in his explanation before?

Bai Lushi and Queen looked at each other and nodded. Bai Lushi asked, "You said that comprehending at least one Supreme Rule is the first requirement for becoming a King of Chaos. What is the second requirement?"

Both Bai Lushi and Queen believed that can comprehended Supreme Chaos Rules as long as Ling Xiaolong was there. All they need to do is enter Ling Xiaolong's Chaos and they'll be able to sense the existence of Supreme Chaos Rules.

However, it was clear that there are more requirements for a Master of Chaos to advance.

Ling Xiaolong did not hide anything. He said, "There is another requirement, and to be honest, even I have yet to fulfill this condition."

Hmm?

Everyone was confused.

If Ling Xiaolong has yet to fulfill the second condition, then how did he become the King of CHaos?
