"Clang!"

Accompanied by a crisp metallic collision sound, the Immortal Slaying Sword burst forth from his body, automatically intercepting Amon's attack.

The "Error" Sequence's offensive power isn't high; its utmost methods are parasitism and powerful control, but there are quite a few of the surrounding Amon's avatars who are Storm Warrior Sequence, and as a powerful War Sequence, their offensive power cannot be underestimated.

Seeing Jiang Xuan temporarily regain clarity, Amon's main body stole space and instantly retreated, while an avatar opportunistically stepped forward, flames and lightning flickering — this was an avatar that had mastered the Storm and Hot Pot King Sequences.

Jiang Xuan reached out and grasped the Immortal Slaying Sword gleaming with cold light; Dao and Principle spread upward along the sword body, radiance gathering at the sword tip, endless sharp intent seeming as if it would pierce the darkness of the Cursed Land.

The Amon avatars' gazes were heavy; lightning chains and massive fireballs obscured half the sky as they flew in, and nearby Giant Sequence parasites also charged; facing sword radiance that made one feel their life slipping away with a single glance, not a single avatar showed fear.

"Heaven's Will Slays Immortals!"

Jiang Xuan's Essence Qi Spirit completely condensed onto this one strike; the arcing sword radiance was like a floating Great Sun, dazzling white light shining upon all the Amon avatars — merely by its form, fine wounds had already appeared on their bodies.

That white light collided with thunder and flames, emitting a violent explosive roar; endless sword intent crushed those low-weight Rule attacks, slashing apart and dissolving the flames and lightning chains.

A flash of shock crossed Amon's main body, yet his movements didn't pause in the slightest; he mobilized power to linger around Jiang Xuan's body — although the Unconscious Island had already been protected by Jiang Xuan, as long as he seized the slightest loophole he could attempt to control Jiang Xuan again.

Seeing his Rule Power completely blocked outside his body by the Xuanhuang Qi, and the Unconscious Sea fundamentally unable to rush in, Amon's expression was very ugly.

His primary abilities were all completely countered by Jiang Xuan; if he had a Sequence specialized for offense, he wouldn't be this passive!

The sword radiance broke through the obstructions of the many Amons and swiftly swept across, finally rushing straight into the sky, actually tearing a huge opening in the bizarrely active dark clouds above; starlight briefly shone upon this land, and countless bizarre wails echoed in the wilderness.

Although the avatars ahead suffered heavy casualties from this strike, Amon's main body didn't panic in the slightest; a gentlemanly smile returned to his face, yet within it seethed madness.

Jiang Xuan didn't notice the main body's frenzied gaze, simply because there were too many identical Amons around, and quite a few parasites mixed among them; he was already somewhat face-blind.

One sword slayed myriad evil spirits; although some avatars were parasitized by Amon, they could briefly recover normalcy if Amon ceased parasitism, but he didn't believe Amon would be so kind as to release the parasites.

The scattered Amon avatars around charged up again, but all of them failed to change their fate of death.

After such a long time Amon still hadn't found a flaw to slowly influence Jiang Xuan; sensing something was wrong, he waved his hand and stole space, attempting to flee once more.

Jiang Xuan let out a cold snort; invisible space fluctuations beneath his feet spread rapidly in all directions — Space Severance Imprisonment!

Amon's expression didn't change: "Such a petty trick also wants to block me!"

As his hands gently arced forward, the space imprisonment was actually temporarily seized by him; in the instant he neared the imprisonment's edge, his figure vanished, and when he reappeared he was already outside the isolated space.

Sword radiance flashed, slashing through all the avatars surrounding him in one cut; Jiang Xuan stepped forward with his left foot, his whole person instantly appearing outside the space imprisonment. Although the space imprisonment had already been temporarily seized by Amon.

But Jiang Xuan had already completely fused with the Old Ones' Box, plus its coordinates were right here; breaking through space imprisonment and walking out of space was no difficult matter for him.

Just as he walked out of the imprisoned space, Amon's voice rang out in the surroundings: "You aren't the Fool's Attendant, yet you plot for the Chaos Sea? That is the thing that paranoiac values most."

"However I also have no good feelings toward that paranoiac; how about I help you completely obtain the Chaos Sea? I know his specific location and how one should enter."

"Besides Adam and me, no one knows how to truly touch the Chaos Sea! Even if you possess that mysterious power it won't work; there are too many chaotic Rules and scattered Rules autonomously protecting it there!"

Seeing Jiang Xuan slowly withdraw the long sword in his hand, Amon smiled and walked out from not far away, pushed up the gold-rimmed glasses before his eyes, a faint smile still hanging on his face.

"I previously injured you, and now have even killed so many of your avatars and parasites, yet you're still willing to help me?" Jiang Xuan narrowed his eyes at the other party, ready to move again at any moment.

"Truthfully, Adam has already grasped a small portion of the Chaos Sea right now; it's just because he hasn't broken through to True God that he hasn't fully grasped it! I'll bring you to the Chaos Sea, and the paranoiac will certainly come kill you! That counts as my revenge too!" Amon's expression was calm.

"If you can kill Adam, then the Chaos Sea can only be yours; if you're obliterated by Adam, that also counts as the paranoiac avenging me!"

"Do you have the courage to try?"

Amon pushed up his glasses; what he said was indeed true — although the Chaos Sea's entrance has a passage at Chernobyl, not just anyone has the chance to enter.

As a product born from the fusion of the Ancient Sun God's Uniqueness with partial humanity, entering Chernobyl isn't anything difficult.

But for Jiang Xuan it's different; the Chaos Sea is the means of God's Revival, and moreover lies deep within the earth's core; wanting to enter, who knows how much time it would consume.

If there's a "local" who can guide the way, that would be nothing better!

"How about it?" Seeing Jiang Xuan was tempted, a bizarre smile emerged on Amon's face.

This time Jiang Xuan did notice the smile at the corner of Amon's mouth, but didn't expose him; even without seeing that bizarre smile, one could tell he wasn't harboring anything good.

Wanting to use Adam's hand to eliminate Jiang Xuan is even more absurd.

Right now Baiam and the Loen Kingdom, under the Twilight Hermit Order's guidance, although friction is constant, no large-scale war has broken out, the God War hasn't started, Adam hasn't become a god, so he simply cannot do anything to Jiang Xuan.

Even knowing Amon was completely lying, Jiang Xuan still decided to temporarily cease hostilities; he truly needed someone who could bring him into the Chaos Sea, and the current Amon was the best choice.

"Deal!" The surrounding imprisoned space dissipated; the Immortal Slaying Sword gradually fused back into his body; only his divine sense continuously covered the Chaos Sea, lest Amon steal his thoughts again.

……

The two walked side by side through the polluted darkness, along the sky-covering Gray Fog wall toward the depths of the pollution; the deeper they went, the more twisted the surrounding trees and environment became, countless pairs of eyes hidden in the darkness quietly watching the two advancing figures.

"This Gray Fog was brought by the Fool; I heard you are the Fool's Attendant?"

Jiang Xuan nodded slightly, acknowledging the Attendant identity.

"Impossible! If the Fool had revived, the Gray Fog wouldn't still be spreading here, and the world's pattern would have long since changed!" Amon denied.

"The Fool is in the Revival phase; for a short time he's still very weak." Jiang Xuan looked at the other party with a seeming smile yet not a smile.

Sure enough, a trace of joy appeared on Amon's face: "So that's how it is; then as an Attendant you must properly protect the temporarily weak Heavenly Lord!"

……

Soon the two arrived at a stretch of building ruins, conversing intermittently; most of the bricks had already corroded and collapsed, turning to powder that scattered with a light pinch.

The bizarre creatures around had vanished; the two stepped into this building complex shrouded in darkness, bricks and rubble everywhere, the former prosperity faintly visible.

Walking into a building's interior, Amon's finger lightly tapped on a piece of black curtain; the two's bodies actually followed that building's floor and slowly descended.

Accompanying the descent deeper and deeper, the surrounding environment grew increasingly blurry; strands of bizarre Rule Power squeezed, deformed, and collided in this not-short fully automated corridor.

Jiang Xuan only felt these bizarre Rule Powers were all targeting him, crazily crashing into his Xuanhuang Mother Qi; his divine sense and the Unconscious Island protected by the "Writer" Characteristic simultaneously suffered mental-aspect Rule attacks.

Amon merely watched Jiang Xuan quietly; the various bizarre polluted Rules all around dodged him, as if facing a ferocious beast in muddy water.

Finally Jiang Xuan's feet touched solid ground; his whole person was completely enveloped in Xuanhuang Qi, his appearance indistinguishable.

"This is the Chaos Sea's entrance extending to Chernobyl; as long as you touch it you can sense the Chaos Sea's specific location!" Amon pointed at that bronze-colored damp Gate ahead.

Jiang Xuan didn't hurriedly touch that bronze Gate, but instead endured the collision of polluted Rules, observing this Gate.

Just then, a bizarre light flowed through Amon's eyes; a hand gently grasped in the void, and those gold-rimmed glasses emitted a faint glow.

"Error!"

The Uniqueness of the Sequence "Error" actually activated!

You must know Amon currently hasn't become a True God yet; it's very difficult for him to mobilize the Uniqueness within his body.

"Error," as the endpoint of Sequence Zero, is likewise not a Sequence focused on offense!

But it is the embodiment of all contradictions and loopholes, able to find opportunities to exploit vulnerabilities and alter all underlying logic at every point of contradiction!

"During rule collision, all non-rule power is invalid!"

Amon modified the underlying logic; in this expanse of Space, apart from the "Writer" rules and the Dao and Principles crisscrossing within his body, all of Jiang Xuan's abilities couldn't resist that maddening corruption.

The Xuanhuang Qi of his body was still flowing, but fundamentally couldn't block the erosion of those bizarre rules; the two seemed to be in different Time-Space intertwining. Zhang Xuan's face changed color.

Jiang Xuan's face changed color; bizarre rules had already begun corrupting his body, his body's Cells beginning to mutate, but because he had tempered nearly every Cell into place when fusing soldiers, this mutation couldn't do anything to him for a Short Time.

Seeing Jiang Xuan actually withstand the already-bizarre rule assault in the first instant, Rule Power flowed in Amon's hand, sliding lightly toward the position of Jiang Xuan's heart.

"Stealing!"

Jiang Xuan only felt his heart clenched tight in an instant, but the Eight Trigrams Furnace's fire within his body autonomously Blazed and Burned, unexpectedly completely containing and absorbing that Rule Power into the cauldron.

The Eight Trigrams Furnace is actually refining rules!

Jiang Xuan Opened Eyes; his Eyes contained Flame Burning Extinction. Behind Amon opposite him, there was a flowing Shadow Curtain spanning the entire Space. A pair of Eyes hidden behind the Shadow Curtain quietly watched him, without any Emotion Fluctuation.

"Dreamer!"

Sequence Zero, the Dreamer's Uniqueness!

The Dreamer's practicality is much higher than Amon's Error: imagined items will inevitably manifest, imagined nations will inevitably descend upon the Material World, proclaimed futures will inevitably be staged, becoming Reality!

Even Adam, after Advancing to Dreamer, could briefly imagine three other Sequences' Uniquenesses for himself, thereby governing the Chaos Sea, combat power approaching a Half Pillar in a Short Time!

But Jiang Xuan had long paid attention; although the two nations had constant friction, they hadn't engaged in large-scale Battle, God War hadn't reached that war intensity either — this doesn't match Adam's Godhood Ritual requirements; how did he Breakthrough Sequence Zero?

Moreover, although Adam and Amon are nominal brothers, their contradictions aren't small either; how could the two of them actually join forces at this moment?

"Forgot to tell you, in this region I can briefly Borrow some Chaos Sea Source Quality rules!" Amon's Eyes flickered with bizarre power, as if already stained by bizarre rules.

"Stealing!" The thought Jiang Xuan had just Rise vanished instantly, and with it vanished the pain of being torn and devoured by rules.

Massive rules entered his body; he could no longer maintain calm on the Consciousness level!

"Decree! He coveted the Ancient Sun God's possessions and received Punishment! Death is his final destination!" Behind, those Eyes began condensing a passage of text word by word.

Accompanying the text standing horizontally in the Void, Endless bizarre rules madly Gathered toward This Location, crowding into Jiang Xuan's body.

Jiang Xuan's Consciousness couldn't Recover, but the Eight Trigrams Furnace, like a bottomless Abyss, madly absorbed the bizarre Rule Power.

Looking inward at Dantian, the Eight Trigrams Furnace grew even brighter after smelting these bizarre rules; within the red-gold Flames black actually began to appear, even giving a sense of spirituality, as if possessing its own will.

On the Eight Trigrams Furnace body, layer upon layer of Dao Patterns stacked and condensed, unexpectedly completely absorbing the rules surging into his body, ignoring the Limit of Amon's "Error" — this is an ability of higher standing than True God rules!

The Eyes in the Void revealed a humanized Doubtful Gaze; that line of text absorbed his spiritual power crazily like a black hole, but after such a Long Time, Jiang Xuan was actually still standing at the Original Spot unmoving.

Amon withdrew from that bizarre state, waving his hand to Steal again.

Rule Power yet sank like a stone into the sea; the Stealing power vanished the instant it entered Jiang Xuan's body.

"Steal Consciousness!"

Amon Stole Consciousness again, but that Blazing Flame, after absorbing a large amount of bizarre rules, unexpectedly rapidly Spread into the Consciousness, even staining the Spiritual Sense and Unconscious Island with black Flame, like the netherfire fallen from Jiuyou.

Only this netherfire was actually protecting Jiang Xuan's Consciousness from any rule's Affect.

Jiang Xuan's Consciousness finally resumed turning, retaking control of the body's full ownership.

The next second, the text in the Void unexpectedly began to crumble; the Eyes standing horizontally in the Void emitted a crisp shattering sound, collapsing like a mirror.
