delegation, there was one person he did notice-a middle-aged woman of the Deus Behemoth Race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She resembled a humanoid water dragon, her entire body glowing with a luminous sky-blue radiance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Renan.’ The name hovered in Cain’s mind the instant he saw her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was the very target the Night Prince wanted him to kill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He let none of that grim intention surface on his face; outwardly, he displayed only calm indifference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have arrived,” he said shortly, addressing the group gathered near the south gate of the Gu Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many sets of eyes regarded him coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some bristled at his aloof manner, but truth be told, they had never been fond of Cain’s reputation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His ease in consorting with members of the Dark Races had made him infamous in the sect.  Before tension could spike, a booming voice cut through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s no point in wasting time on useless bickering.” Cain turned to see an Anima, evidently the leader of this contingent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging by the sheer force of his aura, the Anima was at the very extreme of Late Divine Transcendence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain understood that peak Divine Transcendence masters rarely left the sect during this period, lest they become primary targets for rival factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hence, this Anima and others like him were the highest battle power the Gu Sect dared deploy outside its walls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Lord Arakos!” came the response from the group, many nodding in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though a few threw scornful looks at Cain, none spoke openly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, the entire delegation launched into the sky, streaking out of the sect in a well-coordinated exodus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain also took flight, a flare of Star Power enveloping his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without revealing his Space-Time Laws, he easily matched their pace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They soared across bleak expanses, heading for Golden Lake, where they would meet with more members of the Gu Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain let the wind tug at his robes while discreetly observing the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of them all, one pair in particular claimed his attention: Arakos and Renan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arakos flew protectively close to her, scanning the surroundings with vigilance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear that, to him, Renan’s safety overshadowed that of the rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire scenario complicated Cain’s plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had every intention of slaying Renan, not just to satisfy the Night Prince’s whim but also to harvest her soul and ego for deeper mastery of Tribulation Enhancement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Arakos’s presence, coupled with the sect’s watchful eye, would make it challenging to achieve that silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain glanced at Renan once more, letting the faintest of frowns mar his expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll have to be clever,” he reasoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew that, without revealing his dual cultivation or unleashing the Fallen Archangel Battle Set, his apparent battle power rested only at the bottom tier of Late Divine Transcendence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That alone wouldn’t allow him to surpass Arakos, much less stealthily kill Renan while avoiding notice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A forced confrontation would be messy and risky, and it would blow his cover with Lady Azure as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he contemplated potential strategies, the robotic voice of the Absolute Life Form System echoed inside his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Multiple enemies north of your position!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Energy waves equal to Late Divine Transcendence Masters!] Cain’s eyes narrowed with immediate caution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoever these enemies were, they cloaked themselves skillfully enough to evade even his Ego Wave scanning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had it not been for the system’s [Advanced Multidimensional Scan Force Field], he might have flown straight into their ambush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Momentarily, he weighed whether to warn the group but decided against it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were not his friends, and calling them “allies” would be a stretch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Merely five minutes ago, he had considered how to kill one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, he had no legitimate explanation for how he detected such a threat when other Late Divine Transcendence had missed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any suspicion could endanger him further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Cain just silently mobilized his energy and ready himself for battle.  The group’s path snaked between two towering mountain ranges whose peaks scraped the clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a perfect choke point for an ambush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, the next moment exploded into violence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“RUMBLE!!!” One of the mountains disintegrated in a catastrophic burst of debris, revealing more than twenty massive creatures, each exuding a fierce killing aura that weighed oppressively on the group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the delegation could properly react, the beasts lunged, a frenzy of claws, talons, and elemental roars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In formation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As one!” bellowed Arakos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice resonated with authority, snapping them out of their shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They aligned into a defensive battle formation with well-practiced precision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being newly arrived and separate from their coordinated tactics, Cain was effectively on his own, but that was how he preferred it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, he summoned his magma halberd, channeling scorching Star Power through its metal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Runes seared across his flesh, intensifying his aura and augmenting his physical might.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost simultaneously, an immense ice eagle swung around from above, striking at Cain with lethal talons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“BOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!” Fire clashed with ice in a furious collision, generating a billow of steam that swallowed up Cain’s figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Arakos and the rest faced different monstrosities-gargantuan serpents, colossal rocky golems, and other monstrous entities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tremors shook the air, and elemental shocks scattered lethal debris.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some among the group spared a glance at the roiling steam cloud where Cain fought, but none truly worried for him-if he died, so be it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their eyes, he was an unpredictable figure of dubious loyalty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hush of swirling vapor masked Cain’s fight from prying eyes, and after a few seconds, silence reigned inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group’s unspoken assumption was that the Ice Roc, who was among the stronger beasts, killed him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that conclusion proved painfully premature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain soared downward, plunging the spear squarely into the bird’s massive chest, blasting it into the craggy ground below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ice Roc’s vitality was overwhelming and could endure a lot of damage, but the spear was simply too powerful, and a final cry echoed across the makeshift battlefield before it collapsed, lifeless.\u003C\u002Fp>",1019,"2026-06-02T09:45:42.436Z",1,"novelbin.me","cb61fbe972b0fc561f859d98925f5d4229e7adba47eaf4fdff4c8e9d8883e08b","the-epic-tale-of-chaos-vs-order-chapter-1430","the-epic-tale-of-chaos-vs-order-chapter-1428",2587,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-epic-tale-of-chaos-vs-order-cover.jpg"]
