Chapter 2919

~7 min read 1,251 words

Even though I and my subordinates are locked in fierce combat, the power accumulated by the Sequence Order divinity on our bodies has not increased at all!

Not only me, but every divinity symbol behind each heavenly demon cannot accumulate power.

Could it be that our battles against the Red General and the Panlong Army were all in vain?

This simply violates the operational rules of divinity!

Earlier, the Nine Abysses slowed the Sequence Order divinity's operation by using a black snake, manifested from the Fate Divinity, to entangle the triangle. Although Jialoutian could not stop it, at least he could see it.

But now, the stagnation of the Sequence Order divinity's power—what is the cause?

If the divinity lacks accumulated power, it is difficult to enhance its might against enemies.

Previously, the divinity with great difficulty filled up, and it was all used on the Nine Abysses; Jialoutian afterward accumulated for so long, yet only regained a small half, so his own state remains far from peak.

Coincidentally, his current opponent is the Red General, who is stronger than the Nine Abysses then and in a more perfect state!

When the Red General first emerged from the netherworld, saying she is in her prime is not an exaggeration.

Jialoutian himself has made no progress, while the Red General's power grows stronger and stronger—this is...?

First the Nine Abysses, then the Red General—they are playing this wheel battle so shamelessly!

Jialoutian could not help but exclaim: "What have you done to my divinity!"

The Red General coldly smirked, thrusting her spear to strike a point beneath his ribs. Not far away, the heavenly demons saw several blood dots erupt from Jialoutian's lower back.

He grunted, and the outer large triangle of the Sequence Order divinity had no choice but to retract slightly.

The Red General struck too hard; it had to divert some power from the divinity to heal its own wounds.

Speaking of which, the energy accumulated in the Sequence Order divinity is being used too quickly—not only must it supply his own battle against the Red General, but it must also be allocated to other heavenly demons to fight against the Panlong Army.

But with only output and no input, where would any chance of victory come from?

After all, Jialoutian is also a learned and erudite great heavenly demon. After the initial doubts, he repeatedly pondered, and even while fiercely battling the Red General, his mind raced.

The inner and outer triangles in the divinity represent the dissolution of the original order, and the power generated thereby can be used by him. Usually, the more intense and prolonged the battle, the faster and stronger the divinity's buildup.

The buildup and eruption of the Sequence Order divinity is precisely the process of his own power strengthening to peak. But here there is also a little-known hidden factor: the divinity's energy storage also depends on the opponent's strength.

Most great heavenly demons have a mechanism of growing stronger against stronger foes, becoming fiercer the longer the fight—Jialoutian is no exception. He could confirm his divinity's laws were flawless, ruled out other impossibilities, and the reason for the triangle's operation being excessively smooth without obstruction was only one:

The "order" it is rooted in has gone wrong.

His power comes from the process of order's deconstruction and collapse, so "order" is a prerequisite.

If the battle foundation to which the Sequence Order divinity adheres is itself in a "disordered" state, it is naturally difficult for Jialoutian to draw power from it.

Why is it so hard to restart the Sequence Order divinity after each eruption? Because at this moment, it is in a deep-level "disordered" state, and the divinity finds it hard to gain anything from it.

Somehow, although the battles of the Red General and the Panlong Army against the gods are fierce, the Sequence Order divinity judges this environment as "disordered" and thus cannot charge as usual.

"Chaos!" Jialoutian blurted out.

The ultimate "disordered" state is called Chaos.

Utter chaos, true disorder.

Here, "order" itself approaches stagnation.

Such an environment must be artificially created!

No, that's not right.

Could it be because of the recent manifestation of the Great Vessel Pot...?

Jialoutian glanced around with the corner of his eye; the Crimson Mist Dragon enveloped the entire battlefield, blocking even heavenly light. Originally it was merely slightly yin and cold, posing no threat to heavenly demons, and Jialoutian, busy in battle, had temporarily overlooked it.

Now, thinking back, he roughly knows its use:

It makes the battlefield akin to a land of Chaos, where the Sequence Order divinity cannot operate normally.

Simply put, the Crimson Mist has rewritten the local laws here, and its rank far surpasses Jialoutian's Sequence Order divinity, thereby shielding it.

"How is this possible!" he hissed, "Only the Lingxu Holy Venerable has such means—you, how could you achieve it!"

"You dare to call your half-baked divinity 'Sequence Order'?" the Red General coldly said, "The Nine Abysses long ago saw that your divinity's foundation is nothing but 'Chaos'."

She gave Jialoutian's divinity a new name, and the truth was instantly revealed:

In her view, what Jialoutian possesses is actually only a "Chaos Divinity".

This divinity only evolves the process of order's dissolution—namely, from order to disorder, from good to bad, from existence to non-existence! As for the reverse process, Jialoutian's divinity involves not even a bit, nor can it—

This is the conclusion He Lingchuan drew after observing his battle with Jialoutian.

And the Red General, building on his conclusion, wants to go even further:

Since Jialoutian's divinity cannot complete a full law cycle, where does it qualify as any "Sequence Order"? Clearly, it is merely "Chaos"!

Since it is merely a process and not a complete cycle, it can be interrupted, obscured, or even ignored!

The Red General thrust her spear like a dragon: "No wonder you can never defeat the Lingxu Holy Venerable!"

So, as long as the Lingxu Holy Venerable understands Jialoutian's divinity's nature, she naturally has a way to deal with him—now the Red General is the same.

She skillfully utilized the influx of Chaos, temporarily borrowing Chaos's power—the Crimson Mist originally diffused without pattern, as she used her last remaining connection with the Great Vessel Pot, not yet severed, to prompt the mist dragon to form, temporarily rewriting the laws of this area.

If not seizing this rare heavenly might to suppress and restrict the opponent, who knows how difficult Jialoutian would be to handle.

Upon hearing this, Jialoutian's face turned grim.

The reason he is subordinate to the Lingxu Holy Venerable, the Red General has hit on half of it. It seems she not only inherited Lady Lady Lady Mitian's divinity but also read his memories; otherwise, how would she know these old matters?

"The Lingxu Holy Venerable can do it, but that doesn't mean you, a false god who stole the Death Divinity, can do it!" Jialoutian coldly laughed, "If you inherited Lady Lady Lady Mitian's memories, you would know she never defeated me, and now you are the same! Hah, death and disorder are born of the same source!"

He certainly would not call his divinity Chaos; at most, he would call it "Disorder".

What is death? The loss of vital force is likewise a process from prosperity to decline, essentially not also the constant breaking of order and balance? Thus death and chaos are indeed twins born of the same mother, looking alike—let no one despise another!
