Chapter 954: Perhaps This Battle was Destined to Happen

The moment the God of Light took out that flesh and blood, the Master of Order knew what it was.

Those were the spoils of the war where the master-disciple duo comprising of the God of Knights and the God of Revenge had won from the battle against the Dragon of Chaos. These two gods had joined forces to fight in this war that left the Dragon of Chaos badly battered up.

Over the years, the God of Light had deepened his understanding of greater Divine Powers through studying these spoils of the war. He also figured out many matters that could be regarded as secrets.

Therefore, he went to look for the Dragon of Chaos. After a long conversation, both sides finally came up with a unique trick.

This was a trick that could most probably be only used once. But its might was powerful and reliable.

So long as the God of Light used his Divine Power as a driving force and spread the aura of this blood over an extensive area, he would be able to awaken Chaos, who was in deep slumber in the deepest depths of the Abyss. The most important thing for Chaos, the demon, was to catch hold of the Dragon of Chaos and devour it. Chaos had to replenish itself with the “chaos” that it had failed to perfect previously so that it could achieve a balance between the dragon’s “evil” and its “chaos.”

This was what the God of Evil originally intended to do. Even if he had already lost his sense of rationality, he would still firmly keep this in mind.

And to make use of this trap to annihilate his enemy was the Dragon of Chaos’ greatest dream. It was also the most important thing to do to protect and sustain this world.

Chaos was the leader, and also the ancestor of demons. Its emergence marked the rise of this group of “demons” in the world. This was a group of demons who paid no heed to anything else and were bent on destroying everything, even to the extent of destroying the entire world. When it was deep asleep, the demons would also be in a deep slumber. The moment it awoke, there was a high chance that all the demons would follow suit and awaken with it. Following in its footsteps, they would attempt to destroy the world.

This was, of course, a great crisis for the whole world. But it was also a great opportunity.

For this world, the existence of demons was a major scourge. It was in the interest of all living creatures of this world, and also, the interest of the entire world, to completely exterminate these demons. Not a single one should be spared. So if there was anyone who could accomplish this noble cause, he was bound to receive the praise and reward from the entire world—in other words, it would be gaining the recognition and affirmation of the World’s Origin.

The original plan of the God of Light was that, when he was about to become a greater Divine Power, he would gather a large number of helpers, cast a net from which there was no possible escape and set up numerous traps. Then he would use this blood to draw in the demons, as well as Chaos, who was their leader. Then he would annihilate all of them and rely on this meritorious contribution; he would win the recognition of the World’s Origin and step up into the realm of the greater Divine Powers.

But plans were never faster than changes. Later on, he found an even more reliable path, and thus this plan was shelved.

Compared to gathering some teammates to fight battles against the demons, it was easier and safer to defeat the many other races and unify the Main Plane. After all, there was only the need to destroy the Orc God System. Gods of the other races were unlikely to risk their lives and put up a struggle. With the power of the human gods, the odds of winning were at least 70 percent.

And to fight the demons... even if he were to consider the possibility of the Master of Order stepping forth to make a move, the odds were at most only 50-50. Among them, there were even possible causes for severe injury. Any careless moves would even bring death in battle to the God of Light himself.

After all... the strength of the demons originally had some power to restrain the “honorable gods.” And their leader was a greater Divine Power.

So this plan had been put aside for the time being. The God of Light originally intended to wait until another junior among the human gods, who had hopes in achieving a breakthrough to become a greater Divine Power, to appear. When that junior had grown and developed himself to the limit of a great Divine Power, the God of Light would reactive this plan. When that time arrived, with him holding the fort as a greater Divine Power, the hope of success would definitely be much higher.

But plans could never keep up with changes. A strange god who was totally unafraid of being contaminated by the forces of chaos appeared in the world. This god was none other than Auscar, the Void Mask.

The Void Mask’s way of doing things clearly adhered to the chaotic good system. But the nature of his power was even more elusive than the evil gods. The nature of his power was odd, and his rate of growth was astonishingly fast. In a short period of more than a hundred years, he had come close to the peak of a great Divine Power. Especially that one palm earlier on, the God of Light absolutely had no intention of showing mercy. If he were to let that palm fall and hit, he was sure that even if Yorgaardman had come to help and combined forces with the Void Mask fight him, the two of them would still be seriously injured. And within the next 300 to 500 years, they could forget about a full recovery—but the Void Mask actually caught his hit, and he had done so without sustaining any serious injury!

This was a great shock for the God of Light. He decided to change his plan for the time being and directly challenge the Master of Order. And while he was challenging the Master of Order, he would summon Chaos and the Wheel of Order.

The Master of Order was the ultimate embodiment of “order.” When he faced Chaos, he would definitely put in his best efforts to eliminate it. This would give the God of Light the chance to defeat the Master of Order. Even if he could not defeat the Master of Order, the God of Light could still take this chance to destroy Chaos and all the kinds of demons to win the recognition of the World’s Origin.

In becoming a greater Divine Power, he had used the fate of the humans as the driving force for his breakthrough. This had inflicted damaging effects on the potential development of the humans. Originally, his plan was to rely on his supreme Divine Power to slowly make amends, but since he wanted to destroy all the different demons, it would not be a bad choice to take advantage of this chance to rely on the rewards of the World’s Origin. ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m

Of course, all of this would only become a choice out of helplessness. Everything and anything that happened was all because the God of Light simply could not afford to wait.

The Void Mask was growing too fast. If he continued to grow, perhaps it would not be long before he joined hands with a few other gods like the Dragon of Chaos and the God of Justice. Their combined forces would be enough to annihilate Chaos and accomplish the great cause of destroying the demons.

Of course, the God of Light would not allow for something like this to happen—how could he simply give up on these interests that he had pre-determined to be his without putting up a fight!

So, though he felt that it was a pity and a waste, and even though the odds of winning were not high, the God of Light still set in motion his back-up plan to incite battle between Chaos and the Master of Order. Then he would profit from the battle that they fought.

All these happenings, their causes and effects, Sui Xiong might know or might not know. But at least, he certainly did not know that he was the exact reason that brought about the rapid change of events in the current situation.

But, at this very moment, he was very clear about something else.

Among all the gods, there was no other who could confront Chaos head-on. He was the only exception.

By right, the greater Divine Powers like the Master of Order and the God of Light ought to step out to defend the Positive Plane. But they were in the midst of a confrontation against each other, so clearly, they were unable to free themselves. Other than the two of them, perhaps the strongest master left was the Dragon of Chaos. But getting him to fight Chaos? That would be like throwing food to a dog, and the dog would most probably swallow everything up and return a satisfied burp. In other words, this was a path of no return.

So even though he felt that his current condition was not good enough, Sui Xiong was still left with no other choice. He sighed and shook his head, then he activated that coordinate that was left within the nest of the Dragon of Chaos to tear and crack open the void space. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the nest of the Dragon of Chaos.

The Dragon of Chaos, who was always calm and collected was as flustered as a headless housefly at that moment, pacing all around his nest. Seeing Sui Xiong appear, he immediately felt as though he had grown a backbone. In a most anxious, yet eager voice, he asked, “You’re finally here! What should we do?”

“Do you have a way to teleport your nest to somewhere near the Wheel of Order?” Sui Xiong asked.

“Yes, I do. But there is a war going on over there!” said the Dragon of Chaos. Instantly, all three faces registered bitter looks, as though they had been made to eat a few hundred jin of Coptis (Note: a kind of Chinese medicinal herb). “Two greater Divine Powers are fighting each other, and you want me to go there? Just a single wave of the aftermath will be able to kill me!”

“My big brother, Yorgaardman, has done the math and came up with somewhere a relatively safe distance away. Let’s make our way there!”

The Dragon of Chaos was clearly so desperate that he was simply grasping about for salvation. He paid no concern to whether his physical attributes would be severely injured by the Wheel of Order. Without a second thought, he activated the teleportation ability of his dragon nest and followed the coordinates of the location that Sui Xiong had provided.

But even before he could kickstart the teleportation, a silver-white chain suddenly appeared and locked down this side of space. The dragon nest that was originally about to make its escape via the means of teleportation but was brought to a stop again. And this time, it was firmly locked in place. There was no way it could go elsewhere.

The voice of the Master of Order sounded, “You can fight the battle from here. I’ll first deal with that silly fellow, Wuther. But I’ll be back as soon as I can to help.”

The Dragon of Chaos instantly felt like crying. But no tears would fall. He knew that his longtime opponent had always been a man of his words. Since he said that he would finish off the God of Light before coming over to help, then he would certainly not come any earlier than that. This also meant that the Dragon of Chaos had to rely on these arrangements set up near his dragon nest, as well as the help of the Void Mask, to hold out till the Master of Order arrived.

He was clear of what he was capable of. Given his ability, even if Chaos were to come alone, he would not be able to last for long. Not to mention that now, within the Abyss, there were bouts of raging aura rising one after the other, it was apparent that demons of all sorts had been awakened and they would soon stage a massive invasion. His dragon nest was at a place that happened to be very near the Abyss. It could almost become the frontline that would block and prevent the demons from any invasion.

This was simply one disaster after another!

For a moment, the Dragon of Chaos felt as though the whole world around him had darkened. If not for the Void Mask, who was a faint glimmer of light, he might even entertain such a thought like, “I might as well end my life before Chaos arrives and save myself from having to suffer in vain.”

The three dragon heads kept their gazes fixed on Sui Xiong, and those few pairs of eyes were all filled with hope.

Sui Xiong was overwhelmed by all that staring; he shook his head and sighed.

“Don’t worry. I will help you since I have given you my word,” he said with a strong voice. “And... Chaos has brought a horde of demons to destroy the world. As a member of this world, I can’t just stand by without doing anything, right?”

As one of the extreme few living creatures in the world who had ever met Chaos, Sui Xiong was very clear how terrifying that fellow was. If Chaos were truly allowed to wreak havoc as rampantly as he wished, perhaps it might not be long before the world was completely destroyed.

Sui Xiong himself was not afraid of being eroded by Chaos. But if the world was destroyed, would there be any meaning in life if he was left as a lone survivor?

Since that was the case, then he might as well make good use of the current situation to give Chaos a head-on attack!

Three heads bobbed up and down at high speed, one after the other.

Sui Xiong smiled and took in a deep breath. Then through the belief network, he sent out a message to his followers.

“Pray! All my followers!” he shouted at the top of his voice. “No matter which race you are from, no matter what background you have, no matter what you are doing this very moment... just pray! Pray with all your heart! 𝘧𝓇𝗲𝑒we𝙗noѵ𝑒l.𝐜o𝘮

“I am your god, Auscar, the Void Mask. At this very moment, I need the strength from all of you, even the slightest bit of it will be better than nothing!

“To fight against the demons who will bring disaster upon the whole world, to fight the most terrifying King of demons, lend me your strength!”

The white light that enveloped the Sanctuary of the whole God Kingdom was gradually diminishing. Only the huge “Mainframe” that was located in the middle of the God Kingdom remained brilliant and resplendent. Its power was driven to an unprecedented peak as it transformed the prayers of all followers from the Main Plane and the other worlds into a powerful force. Together with the force that had been stored for such a long time, everything was carried across an extremely far distance and transmitted to Sui Xiong, who was slowly flying out of the dragon nest and heading in the direction of the Abyss.

The green jellyfish kept on growing bigger. Every tentacle was emitting a glow that was as scorching as the sun, lighting up the chaotic turbulence in the surrounding and illuminating the gloomy and dark void space that was a distance away. It even shone right into the midst of the Abyss, into that vast and bottomless darkness.

In the deepest depths of the darkness, an amorphous subject was roaring. It was continuously climbing up the abyss and charging its way straight towards Sui Xiong.

“From the very first time we met, I always felt that there was something not quite right about you,” Sui Xiong said with the corners of his mouth slightly curved upwards. He faced the subject named Chaos, that was on all fours and roaring as it charged towards him. “At that time, I already felt that we were bound to meet again. And perhaps, the next time we met, it would be the time where we would have to fight a battle.

“Perhaps this is what we call fate. Let me see just how much power remains in a fallen god who was once a greater Divine Power!
