Chapter 963: Chaos, Over and Above Common Sense (Part 5)

Sui Xiong, who was back in action upon recovering, headed straight towards Chaos once again and stood in front to block its path .

The gods all heaved sighs of relief .

The power of chaos was clearly too overbearing for the gods . Even if they tried with all their might, they might not necessarily be able to block it effectively . Earlier on, it had obviously advanced a great distance within that short period of time . If it were to continue progressing as such, it would not be long before it got close to the boundary line between the Negative Plane and the Matter Plane of the Ring of the World .

Once Chaos stepped into the Matter Plane of the Ring of the World, it would immediately cause serious damage . If its power was released and allowed to spread to the surroundings, even if it was just a little bit, it would nonetheless give rise to the birth of countless monsters . They would then stage a horrifying scene of monsters dancing about chaotically .

Not only that, but it was also highly possible that the part of the Matter Plane that was contaminated by Chaos would undergo a transformation inclined towards the Negative Plane . If the amount was small, perhaps there would not be much cause for worry . But if the amount was bigger, it might destroy the balance among the four great planes, and thus destroying the overall structure of the Great Circulation .

That was really the scariest thing that could happen!

The Great Circulation was the foundation that everything in the world depended on for survival, and there was no exception for both mortals or gods . If the structure of the Great Circulation was destroyed, it was highly likely to lead to an extremely serious disaster . It was no exaggeration at all to say that it was the end of the world!

No one would want something like that to happen .

As members of the world, the gods had their egos, but also their principles . If things had become so terrible to the extent of the possible destruction of the Great Circulation, the gods would have no other choice but to use themselves as material for fixing up the Great Circulation .

Of course, they would not wish for things to develop to this stage . But if there was really the need to, even the evil gods would not oppose to self-sacrifice to save the world . But when the situation was not all that bad, who would be willing to sacrifice themselves!

Even the good gods or the pure good gods who were always so courageous enough to sacrifice themselves for the sake of helping others were no lunatics who simply sought death!

So the gods certainly hoped that Sui Xiong could return earlier and help them with defense at the front so that this world of theirs would not be destroyed . And also, no one would need to go to the extent of sacrificing themselves to repair the world .

And again, Sui Xiong managed to block Chaos . When he brought Chaos’ advancing steps to a halt, more than one god let out shouts of cheer .

“Good going!”

“Our lives are in your hands, Void Mask!”

“Great Jellyfish, if you win this battle, I will find you a beautiful jellyfish bride when we return!”

Sui Xiong rolled his eyes discreetly upon hearing that last line . He really wished he could charge back, turn his tentacles into a thread and needle and sew up that annoying mouth of Her Majesty, the well-respected Goddess of Joy—the teacher who taught him about architectural construction .

At this point in time, she ought to be saying things that were more useful and reliable!

And over at the Positive Plane of the Ring of the World, close to the Wheel of Order that was glowing with great splendor, the Master of Order could not help but nod slightly .

“Auscar, the Void Mask, is indeed a god that is most reliable at the most critical moments,” he said . “If he was the one leading the new rules of this world, maybe I could even put my mind at rest . ”

“He is someone with a golden heart that’s simply much too kind, so he most certainly won’t be able to come up with any suitable rules befitting of a leader!” said the God of Light with a cold laugh . “Asking him to lead the world would be the same as allowing the notions of equality of all people and common prosperity for all to continue lingering around us… Such ideas are not trustworthy at all!”

“I find this way of thinking pretty good . At least in terms of actual practice, relevant areas on the Main Plane have shown a significant increase in the pace of progress since he had first advocated the actual practice of these ideas . ”

“What’s the use of making progress? Stability is the key!”

“If progress is so pointless, how did the humans defeat the other races?”

The two greater Divine Powers were having a conversation while fighting an intense battle . Their combat means might have seemed very ordinary, where not even a subtle move could be seen . Yet in truth, time and space were distorted by every hit they threw at each other . Any opponent whose power was not on the same level as them would have been torn to shreds by their merciless attacks and lost their lives without even some time to wrap their minds over what really happened .

Sui Xiong found himself in a similar situation when he received Chaos’ attack just now . But Chaos had already lost a great part of its ability of reason; thus, it could only rely on its instincts to execute its means . Compared to the precise and dexterous means of the two greater Divine Powers, its crude methods were simply nothing more than child’s play .

Just as the Master of Order had previously told the Dragon of Chaos, so long as he defeated the God of Light, he would be readily available to render his help . By then, beating off Chaos would nothing much .

But the problem was, the God of Light was much more difficult to defeat as compared to Chaos .

“By pestering me like this, you are actually helping Chaos . Do you know? This is as good as betraying the whole world!”

“Betraying the whole world? Since when did the great Master of Order pick up the ways of the earthly pettifoggers and resort to playing such tricks of sophistry? It’s very simple if you wish to save the world . You just have to concede defeat now and hand over to me, the power to dominate and lead the world order . And I will crush Chaos as soon as I turn around . ”

“You were the one who started this war . ”

“Why are you bothered over such a trifling matter! Can’t you just give in a little to save the world?” said the God of Light as a deriding laugh was heard coming from under his visor . “Could it be… Your determination in wanting to save the world is only just up to this degree, after all?”

The Master of Order was silent for a moment, then answered coldly, “I disagree with your rules!”

“Over and over again, it’s still nothing more than this line . You’re really one stubborn old mule who’s stuck in a rut!”

Though the two greater Divine Powers had temporarily stopped for a moment, being unable to see eye to eye with each other meant that ultimately, they had to fight again . Neither side would yield an inch .

And at the border between the Matter Plane and the Negative Plane of the Ring of the World, Sui Xiong had, once again, waged a ferocious war on Chaos .

Chaos’ combat means had not changed much from before and that clever technique of distorting time and space seemed to be nothing more than a flash of inspiration . But Sui Xiong did not dare show any hint of negligence . He exercised great caution and stood guard against any bizarre means that Chaos would possibly use .

The strange thing was, this time when they exchanged blows, Sui Xiong felt that Chaos’ prowess seemed to have dropped .

Its attacks were no longer as heavy as before, and its defensive ability was not as high as before . Every time Sui Xiong’s tentacles collided with its dirty mud, he could clearly feel this weakening trend .

And… it seemed to be getting weaker and weaker .

“What on earth is going on? Why is Chaos becoming weaker? What the hell is happening to it?”

Sui Xiong was secretly puzzling over these questions, but he did not dare to let his guard down . He had suffered a great loss earlier on and that made him clear on how powerful and dangerous Chaos was . Now, even if there were a thousand ducks cackling by his ears, he would never get distracted again!

As time went by, Sui Xiong gradually realized that the situation did not seem to be the same as what he speculated earlier on .

Chaos did not become weaker . And the attacks by the other gods still did not have any effect on it . Even his big brother, Yorgaardman’s light blade, was only something that was visible without practical use .

Sui Xiong was more and more doubtful . And he felt that within his surrounding time and space, this doubt seemed to be undergoing some changes . Immediately, he pulled back and retreated, and was just in time to dodge a hit from the repeated attacks of Chaos . He watched the blackness of the dirty mud before him . It was building a cage to encircle him . But when everything finally fell apart, it became the definite answer for Sui Xiong’s doubts .

The one who changed was not Chaos, but he himself .

It was not that Chaos had become weak . It was him, he who had become stronger!
