The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order - Chapter 1007

Chapter 1007: Soul Devourer (I) Chapter 1007: Soul Devourer (I) Cain did not waste time, immediately diving into the sea of knowledge that was the Trinity Kingdom’s Legendary Library.

His eyes soon reached a book containing a cultivation technique known as the Lord of Fire Legendary Cultivation Technique.

It was a cultivation path for mages with a fire-type Innate Ability.

It taught the user how to use their ability as tempering flames to consume the entire energy pool, aiding in condensation.

Although the information was fascinating and its rules and principles were impressive, Cain soon moved to a different book as he lacked a fire Innate Ability.

He continued reading through more and more cultivation techniques, learning about the key to the True Name and breaking into the Legendary Realm.

Cain’s intelligence was high enough for him to grasp the basics of several Legendary Cultivation Techniques before finally understanding the path to the Legendary Realm.

He took a few moments to meditate, organizing his thoughts, before reciting the knowledge aloud, ensuring he was not missing anything.

“The route to Level 20 is simple: fill your energy pool with Spirit Power and then transform this into a superior energy form by infusing one of the myriad forces that cover the Crimson World.

However, from this point on, everything is much more complicated.” Cain paused, a solemn expression appearing on his face as he gained a new understanding of the complexity of the Crimson World’s path of power.

“Even after your energy pool is completed, there is still a long way to the Legendary Realm.

First, you must condense your energy from its liquid state to a solid form, generating an energy crystal.

The size of your energy pool will remain the same, but the amount of power and energy you can unleash through it will be on completely different levels.

After all, 100 kilograms of cotton and 100 kilograms of iron might weigh the same, yet their density and durability are completely different.” As Cain reached this point, he recalled the sudden burst of strength in Sindric, the assassin from whom he stole Shadow Body.

Cain’s physical strength was much higher than the assassin’s, yet the moment this one channeled his energy pool, it nearly overpowered him.

Had it not been for the spell matrix that flooded the ground with lightning and paralyzed the man, who knew what could have happened?

“After the crystallization is completed, you must continue the condensation of your energy pool, reducing its size while ensuring it remains stable.

This process culminates in the Event Horizon Formation, and through it, you will awaken your True Name and become a Level 21 Legendary existence!” Greed and desire surged through Cain’s heart as a smile appeared on his face, realizing he finally understood the process of the Legendary Realm.

Of course, understanding the process was one thing, and genuinely harnessing it was completely different.

Cain needed a cultivation technique to guide him, as the Event Horizon Formation was an extremely dangerous process, and the slightest flaw could lead to his entire existence burning to pieces.

If that were to happen, Cain did not know what sort of aftermath it would entail or if his ego could return to his original body in Aether.

He could perish in this place if something went wrong.

“There are some Legendary Cultivation Techniques that could be of use, but none of them truly match my style.” Cain’s determination was unwavering as he continued searching through the library, going through all the books.

A frown deepened on Cain’s face as he realized that none of the Legendary Cultivation Techniques in the library were truly suited for him.

He could use them to advance to the Legendary Realm, but it would limit his power, making him an average Legend.

For the people of the Trinity Kingdom, Legends were awe-inspiring and mighty, but for Cain, it was just the first step on his path to the South Coast.

The people there should be much more powerful, and he hungered for that power if he wanted to thrive.

A dark, ominous book caught his attention as Cain reached the bottom of the library.

He saw a book bound in weathered, human-like leather.

Its heavy cover was secured with metal clasps or chains.

A sharp light appeared in Cain’s eyes as he opened the book and saw yellow pages, brittle parchment stained with ink and blood.

The text was written in archaic, cryptic languages, accompanied by disturbing illustrations of dark rituals.

The book exuded a palpable aura of dread and malevolence, making it feel alive with dark power.

The disturbing appearance of the book and the malevolent aura it exuded made a strange expression appear on Cain’s face as he wondered to himself, “What kind of drama queen wrote this?” Cain couldn’t care less about the appearance or aura of the object.

After all, he was a man who used Depravitas as fuel for his ego and energy pool, so how could a twisted book make him nervous?

Not bothering with the book’s flair and drama, Cain began to analyze its information, and soon, a broad smile appeared on his face as he realized what it contained.

It was a Legendary Cultivation Technique that suited him perfectly!

“Soul Devourer.” Just reading the name excited Cain, and he soon carried on with the details of this amazing Legendary Class.

“It is a Legendary Cultivation Technique that requires a devouring-type Innate Ability.

It will allow me to consume and devour the souls of other life forms, using them as fuel to crystallize my energy pool.” The crystallization of the energy pool through the Soul Devourer Legendary Cultivation Technique was similar to the other cultivation techniques he had read.

However, as he reached the part about the Event Horizon Formation, shock and awe appeared in Cain’s eyes.

Cain had led an entire world against the invasion of aliens made of twisted emotions and chaotic psychic energy, so he was not easily shocked, yet the ritual displayed in this book froze him.
