Chapter 477: The Abyss Seven Monarchs
A person in black robes from the Holy Domain.
Furthermore, having sensed the anomaly, they mobilized the entire foundation of the Dao Sect, causing the Heavenly Court, which had transformed into a world, to open the Heavenly Gate in the North King Time Domain, allowing that Pixiu Emperor to look over with the help of the Heavenly Court's power.
They all stared in unison at the Gray Fog Area, their expressions grave and their Divine Souls tense.
The Gray Fog Area was immense, occupying almost one percent of the North King Time Domain.
In that place, it was already equivalent to a part of the Chaos World.
That Great Consciousness of Chaos felt as comfortable there as if it were in its own home.
The Chaos Demon Gods and Chaos Demon Venerables also felt that they could exert one hundred percent of their strength in this Gray Fog Area without needing to pay a price.
And just like in the Chaos World, even if their bodies were smashed to pieces, they could recover in a single thought.
They all smiled triumphantly, feeling that this time, no matter what, it was a sure victory.
The Great Consciousness of Chaos had personally entered the fray, paying a certain price to tear open the defensive barrier of the North King Time Domain.
This caused the Chaos Power to reach its peak in this place at this time.
With such an advantage of terrain.
Let alone a single avatar of the Lord of Flesh.
Even if the true body of the Lord of Flesh came in person! They would likely have to concede defeat!
After all, the home field of the Lord of Flesh is the Abyss, not Chaos!
The Chaos Army thought very well of their situation.
Yet they did not know that Su Ping was also waiting for this very moment.
After relying on Chaos to exert great effort in helping to tear open the barrier of the North King Time Domain.
It allowed Su Ping to also open the Space-Time Rift Array without being obstructed.
Therefore, when that Great Consciousness from the depths of Chaos looked toward the Demon Fox Great World.
The moment its consciousness shockwave, which had seemingly turned into a solid, caused the Flesh Ancient Tree to wither and decay, and the Flesh Carpet on the ground to dissipate in an instant.
This Great Consciousness also sensed something, abruptly withdrawing its gaze and turning to scan the surroundings.
In the surroundings within the gray fog, it was unknown when it had begun.
Slender cracks wrapped in Abyss Gray Soil appeared abruptly.
They shed the Abyss Gray Soil at the same time, revealing the long, narrow space-time rifts inside.
These space-time rifts overflowed with a massive amount of Abyss Aura.
This made the approaching Chaos demons sense danger, and immediately, a Chaos Demon God led a large group of demons to charge over.
This Chaos Demon God opened its large mouth and spewed out great masses of black smoke, looking as if it could destroy this space-time rift.
Yet, from within the space-time rift, a shadow flew out.
A Shadow Cloak formed from shadows, capable of wrapping around a Great World, rolled up the attacking Chaos Army in the blink of an eye.
After one roll, one tightening, and one loosening, the Shadow Cloak shook a few times, and there was no longer a trace of the Chaos Army inside.
The Chaos Demon Gods arriving from the rear were all greatly shocked; they could perceive that their peer, who could be considered to be at a medium-to-high level among Chaos Demon Gods.
Had actually been rolled inside and disappeared without a trace, unable to withstand even a single breath of time.
"How is this possible? This is the home field of us Chaos!"
"How could Chaos let us disappear like this!"
The Chaos Demon Gods retreated in unison, and as Shadow Creatures began to emerge from the Shadow Cloak, they received the other party's message:
One of the Abyss Seven Monarchs: Lord of Shadows!
"Ah!"
"Quickly stay away, do not look, do not think!"
In another space-time rift, a body wearing a mask, with countless hands and feet swimming behind the mask, emerged from the rift, emitting a cackling, strange laugh.
The Chaos Army near it, whether Demon Gods or ordinary demons.
All of their bellies grew large.
Even some Chaos evil spirits, who had no physical body and were soul-forms, felt their bellies grow large, with new life growing and strengthening, absorbing all their energy.
"One of the Abyss Seven Monarchs, Fanyan Zhizhu!"
The bull-headed Chaos Demon Venerable had originally been rushing over to save the situation, but seeing this scene, it abruptly turned around and changed its trajectory.
And in the direction of its changed trajectory, a silver-white high tower stood in the distance.
That high tower was clearly only a few dozen kilometers high.
Before experts of a power like Chaos, a monster of this size would normally count for nothing.
But after seeing this high tower.
Even a Chaos Demon Venerable would feel awe for this high tower in its heart, and feel as if the entire North King Time Domain, and even Chaos itself, were as small as plankton before this high tower.
Abyss Seven Monarchs... Lord of the High Tower!
This was also an Abyss force the Chaos Army had encountered before.
And because of this, that Great Consciousness of Chaos had projected its gaze there first.
The bull-headed Chaos Demon Venerable's body shook, just thinking it was about to be ordered to attack by the Great Consciousness.
But it discovered that a seven-colored halo had appeared in the rear.
That halo seemed to envelop the Chaos vortex from different dimensions, forming an overlap and a sense of detachment from different perspectives within the Chaos vortex.
At the same time, looking closely, what was flowing on the surface of the seven-colored halo were, shockingly, the joys, sorrows, and emotions accumulated by the entire Chaos World over billions of years...
"One of the Abyss Seven Monarchs, the Lord of Desire... Is He interfering with the will of the Great Consciousness of Chaos?"
"How could this be?"
"It was clearly us, the Chaos side, who tore open space-time and made this place our Chaos home field!"
"How could it become a battlefield that allows the Abyss to successfully invade on a large scale in an instant?"
The bull-headed Chaos Demon Venerable was bewildered, yet it felt layers of crisis approaching.
It began to seek a way to protect itself, only to discover that several other Chaos Demon Venerables were also coming over at this time.
Once its divine ability was unleashed, this Chaos Demon Venerable immediately saw the true culprit causing them to retreat, retreat, and retreat.
That was the Lord of Flesh and Blood, whose size was no smaller than the previous Chaos Great World, in the midst of creating a Flesh Web.
No matter how great the divine abilities of the Chaos Demon Gods under the Flesh Web were, they could not break free and could only watch helplessly as they were swallowed whole.
The four Chaos Demon Venerables converged together.
They communicated through divine sense and in an instant made the plan to retreat into the depths of the Chaos World.
Right now, no matter how one looked at it, it was a mutual invasion, interference, and erosion between the Abyss and Chaos.
They served as the most capable subordinates of Chaos.
They should, above all, protect the rear!
The Chaos Demon Venerables looked at the Great Consciousness, which was overlapped by seven-colored halos and could not spare the mental energy to pay attention to them.
With their minds set, they all fled back into the Chaos Original World together.
Only just having entered it.
"Something is wrong!"
The Chaos Demon Venerables felt an anomaly.
They widened their eyes and saw that, from who knows when, a huge Stage had appeared within the Chaos World.
On the Stage were placed millions of Small Worlds from within the Chaos World.
These worlds became actors on the Stage, and countless Chaos creatures were born upon them, growing into Demon Gods.
Then they slaughtered each other on the Stage until they perished together in the end, and everything returned to nothingness.
Afterwards, as a faceless person in black holding a conductor's baton on the stage above waved the baton with both hands.
It was as if time had reversed on the Stage; the Small Worlds appeared once again, and then the previous plot began anew.
The Stage plot was constantly in Samsara.
It seemed completely meaningless.
Yet the Chaos Demon Venerables could feel it.
That Stage, which used the Small Worlds of the Chaos World as actors.
Every time it went through Samsara, it was absorbing and consuming the power of the entire Chaos Great World.
The billions of Chaos Army and countless Chaos Demon Gods born in the blink of an eye on that Stage were all real and true.
Their mutual slaughter and mutual destruction were equally real and true.
It was just that, under normal circumstances, the death of Chaos demons would return to the embrace of Chaos, keeping the energy of the entire Chaos Great World constant.
And because there was constant external plundering.
The overall energy of Chaos would only ever be increasing.
But the consumption on this Stage meant that once it was gone, it was truly gone.
The lost energy would not be compensated for.
The huge Stage, the constantly cycling performance.
It was like a super-sized water pump, constantly extracting the foundation of the Chaos World.
All four Chaos Demon Venerables realized the horror of this situation.
They instinctively wanted to take action.
Yet they felt their whole bodies turn cold following a gaze cast by the faceless person waving the conductor's baton.
One of the Abyss Seven Monarchs, the Lord of Samsara!
At the same time, perhaps because the energy extracted by this huge Stage fed back into itself.
The Chaos Demon Venerables could feel that the strength of this Lord of Samsara at this moment far exceeded those previous Abyss Monarchs.
"Since you have come, let us take a trip into My Reincarnation Realm together."
"If you can transcend Samsara, you might have the opportunity for a breakthrough."
The Lord of Samsara's lazy voice rang in the ears of the Chaos Demon Venerables.
It was imprinted in their minds and the depths of their primordial spirits.
It even made them intuitively discover that the other party was not lying.
If they could truly transcend Samsara, perhaps they, these Chaos Demon Venerables, could truly go a step further!
Thereby having the possibility of becoming a new Dark Catastrophe.
To say they were not tempted would naturally be a lie.
But looking at all the familiar Small Worlds of the entire Chaos Great World becoming toys in the other party's hands.
The Chaos Demon Venerables, as long as they were not stupid, would choose to refuse.
The bull-headed Chaos Demon Venerable thought this, however... when facing the invitation of the Lord of Samsara.
They were shocked to find that their subconscious had betrayed them, making the decision to agree a step ahead.
Instantly!
The four Chaos Demon Venerables entered the grand Stage together.
They became mutant nodes in the constantly cycling plot of this Stage.
Making every Samsara of the performance have a few more subtle and interesting changes.
Changes within Samsara.
This was exactly what the Lord of Samsara liked most.
The conductor's baton he waved created afterimages.
This caused the flow of time on the Stage to accelerate by a few notches.
Every Samsara performance also quickened its tempo.
After some dozens of breaths like this.
The bull-headed, human-bodied Demon Venerable suddenly appeared on the spot.
He was extremely weak, his aura having dropped to a level not even equal to a Spirit Severing Cultivator.
However, he could not afford to care about such details.
His mind was still flooded with a massive amount of memories, leaving him somewhat bewildered and in Chaos.
After being brought into the Samsara Stage.
This Demon Venerable began a new life starting as an infant.
Having lost his original memories, he grew up and cultivated various divine arts under the guidance of a certain consciousness.
Then, he received the baptism of Chaos Power and became a fierce warrior of the Chaos Army.
Following that, he collided with opponents and fought frantically.
Finally, he vanished into thin air on the battlefield, waiting for the performance to restart so he could enter Samsara once more.
The plot was simple: no partings of life and death, no grand moralizing, just cultivating to grow up and then heading to the front lines to kill the enemy.
But he could not withstand such a Samsara repeating over and over again.
So much so that even after breaking free, the Demon Venerable remained trapped for a short time, believing he was meant to be that kind of life, that kind of warrior.
"Pfft!"
After several breaths, this bull-headed, human-bodied Demon Venerable finally came to his senses completely, and he spat out a mouthful of foul blood.
Looking toward the great Stage, he knew the other three companions were still trapped inside.
And they could not come out at this time; later... it would only become increasingly difficult, until eventually, they would treat themselves as puppet actors acting according to commands.
…………
The bull-headed, human-bodied Demon Venerable turned his head and chose to stay away from this Stage, after running out of the Chaos World.
He immediately discovered that the Gray Fog Area at this time was not much better off.
As they devoured more and more of the Chaos Army, absorbing and transforming the power of Chaos.
Those Abyss Monarchs also had increasingly terrifying auras one by one.
Previously, the Demon Venerable still had the confidence to Zhou Xuan a little.
Now, however, he did not even dare to look at the opponent's true form.
He was terrified that if he were not careful, he would fall into a trap again!
The divine abilities of these Abyss Monarchs were truly one more bizarre and terrifying than the next, completely unreasonable!
Just as the bull-headed, human-bodied Demon Venerable was hesitating about what to do.
He suddenly discovered that the seven-colored halo had broken away from the Chaos vortex in a flash.
Following that, the angry great consciousness suddenly unleashed its Divine Sense.
In an instant, it seemed as if the entire Chaos World and this space of Gray Fog were under the gaze of the great consciousness of Chaos.
The remaining Chaos Demon Gods also wept with joy at this moment.
They held Hope that the great consciousness of Chaos would display its divine might.
Only!
As six Abyss Monarchs each manifested a phantom image to surround the Chaos vortex.
And they were not in the slightest bit afraid of the opponent's gaze and various pressures.
The great consciousness of Chaos suddenly retracted the Divine Sense it had released.
After compressing it to the extreme within the Chaos vortex.
A giant composed entirely of pitch-black light appeared.
This giant had no features, and people could only discern its shape by the light that was darker and brighter than the outside world.
The moment it walked out of the Chaos vortex and successfully stepped across the boundary between illusion and reality.
The Chaos vortex instead turned into an illusion and was devoured by it.
"Chaos God... Kals!"
Outside, the leader of the black-robed figures, trembling as he felt the aura drifting over and imagining the great battle within, trembled his lips and said in a low voice:
"So that's how it is; is this the source of Chaos?"
"Is the source of the Dark Catastrophe also derived from this?"
Some of the other black-robed figures were confused, while others understood and similarly revealed expressions of astonishment.
The origin of the Chaos of the Dark Catastrophe appears to be a decayed and fallen Ancient God.
But... they knew better.
This Ancient God had been successfully usurped and replaced by a Cultivator.
Therefore.
There really is a path above the Saint!
That is... to become a Dark Catastrophe?
Thinking of the madness of the Dark Catastrophes.
The black-robed figures also somewhat understood why the Saints did not take a step further.
Such a future does not look any better than that of the immortal Saints.
