watched his swords-more than thirty in total-hurtling toward the human.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Aladon’s wounds hindered his full might, he remained convinced of his impending triumph.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each sword possessed the power of a complete attack from an Early Divine Transcendence Master, and unleashing so many at once rendered a counter seemingly impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Aladon’s eyes, there was no way the young man could emerge alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, fate defied his expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“CLANKKK!” The moment the swords met Cain’s flesh, they failed to slice through it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No stab wounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a single droplet of blood drawn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of cowering in terror, Cain merely smiled as though he had anticipated such a scenario.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aladon’s cold smirk vanished, replaced by shock and horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“WHAT!?” he roared, his voice echoing across the swamp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could not believe what he saw: countless yang runes glowing with a fierce radiance covered Cain’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked like a layer of armor-impervious, unbreakable.  “ARRGGGHH!” Before Aladon could recover from his surprise, Cain bellowed, releasing a burst of scorching Star Power that flared around his body in an explosive surge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chains of time restricting his movements cracked, then shattered, while the swords that had attempted to carve his flesh disintegrated into nothingness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the very next heartbeat, Cain’s magma halberd swung downward, aiming directly for Aladon’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in his weakened state, Aladon tried to evade, but there was no escaping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blade struck point-blank, burning a vast, smoldering wound into his torso before launching him into the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOOOOMMMM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He crashed downward with tremendous force, blasting a crater in the swamp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mud and debris flew in every direction, ignited by the fiery Star Power that accompanied Cain’s blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mighty explosion of heat laid waste to the area, creating a cloud of steam that rose into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain did not direct much attention to the destruction below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he glanced at the runes still shimmering across his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those yang runes signified that he had achieved perfection in the first level of the Solar Titan Cultivation Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By itself, that defense might not have been enough to repel Aladon’s swords, given that each was charged with the power of a Divine Transcendence Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The true reason the swords failed to pierce him was the simultaneous completion of the first level of the Indestructible Herculean Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After pushing his cultivation to the Peak Divine Ascension Rank, Cain stripped away the barrier, preventing his physical body from advancing to Herculean Bastion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that threshold removed, his flesh could withstand point-blank strikes from an Early Divine Ascension Master without sustaining damage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahaha,” Cain laughed, exulting in the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The technique did not sell itself short.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is truly amazing!” That sense of triumph, though, was short-lived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Determination, laced with cold killing intent, emerged in Cain’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power of his Ego Wave flowed outward from his Rebirth Heart, coursing into his Evolution Core and Inner World.  Below, Aladon hauled himself out of the newly formed crater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His entire metallic body recoiled under the strain of pain while his energy fluctuated in disarray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury raged in his gaze, but there was a tinge of unwillingness there, too-his injuries made it virtually impossible to match Cain’s defensive prowess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, he was not prepared to surrender.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph, if you think you can take me out easily, think again,” Aladon hissed, forcing his hands together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive pool of Essence Origin and time energy gathered between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The swirling forces around his body intensified, hinting at a final, desperate technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aladon’s gaze stayed locked on the young man in the sky, refusing to look anywhere else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately for him, that decision spelled disaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next moment, he felt a hand press against the back of his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could spin around, a powerful spirit strike surged into his mind and soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Already strained by physical injuries, he had no reserves left to shield his consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Anima let out a strangled gasp as his eyes rolled back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, his body slumped forward, plunging into unconsciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain’s eyes were cold as the illusion of him standing in the sky vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did he hear the voice of Apex echo inside his mind: “The Anima was strong and seemed willing to die if that meant taking you with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sadly for him, he never considered the possibility that you could be a dual cultivator and was too focused on your melee power to notice the illusion.” Cain dipped his head in acknowledgment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with his robust defense, the final attack Aladon was readying might have inflicted serious harm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was grateful not to have tested his luck against it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Cain dispatched Aladon’s unconscious form to his Inner World, removing the defeated Anima from the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that handled, Cain took a step forward and invoked the Law of Space, vanishing from the charred swamp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, he reappeared in the midst of a massive storm thousands of kilometers away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lightning forked across the sky, and thunder boomed with deafening force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winds whipped around with relentless ferocity, a tempest that could crush beings below the Divine Transcendence Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Cain’s newly strengthened body perceived the raging elements as little more than a gentle breeze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With an idle wave of his hand, he created a vacuum at the storm’s center and brought forth Aladon’s unconscious figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An ominous glow manifested on Cain’s forehead as the Eye of Gluttony came to be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Focusing on Aladon, Cain sent his consciousness directly into the Anima’s mind, erecting a bridge that allowed Leviathan to pass through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside Aladon’s Soul Dimension, an Alter-Ego duel began in earnest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Aladon’s Ego Eternal aspect lagged behind his Essence Evolution Path of Power, the man remained a Late Divine Transcendence Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His willpower was no trifling matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, despite Aladon’s base strength, the severe wounds inflicted earlier had worn him down, leaving him vulnerable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leviathan exploited that weakness, pressing relentlessly until the Anima’s Alter-Ego collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leviathan devoured the enemy’s will, and in doing so, Cain gained a rush of memories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt them flood his mind in a rushing tide of images, glimpses of Aladon’s knowledge, experiences, alliances, and betrayals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Cain nearly lost himself in the torrent of insights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he steadied, letting the new information settle into his consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a single moment, Cain understood precisely why Aladon had been labeled a traitor-and, more importantly, why Lady Azure had wanted him dead.\u003C\u002Fp>",1096,"2026-06-02T09:45:42.436Z",1,"novelbin.me","5433704464c0155c49d3dcb64bfefbb4bd0901d478e21f55030df858b7ea3b47","the-epic-tale-of-chaos-vs-order-chapter-1411","the-epic-tale-of-chaos-vs-order-chapter-1409",2587,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-epic-tale-of-chaos-vs-order-cover.jpg"]
