The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order - Chapter 1606

Chapter 1606: Reverend Madness’s defeat
“Storm-Walker – The Speed Beyond Light!” Cain roared as the titanic power of his Tier 9 Astral Supremacy Star exploded throughout his colossal body. The next second, the gargantuan form—capable of crushing moons with a single hand—vanished from existence.

Reverend Madness’s eyes widened in sheer horror. One moment, Cain stood before him like an unshakable mountain; the next, he was simply gone. The unsettling silence that followed was broken by an overwhelming sense of dread clawing at the depths of his soul. A nightmarish presence suddenly loomed behind him, sending every instinct within his ancient being into a panic.

Without hesitation, his massive, spider-like legs lashed out, striking blindly with terrifying force and momentum. Each blow carried enough power to obliterate mountains and shatter continents. But it was pointless.

Cain had surpassed the limitations of speed. It was no longer just his movements that had accelerated—his entire being reacted with a speed that even a Prima Deity would find it hard to respond.

“AHHHHHHHHH!”

A bloodcurdling scream echoed across the battlefield as Reverend Madness felt a searing blade carve through his spider legs. Four of them were severed in a single instant, the scorching edge slicing through chitin, flesh, and bone as if they were paper. Before he could process the pain, an even greater force slammed into his back.

A cataclysmic impact sent his colossal body soaring into the sky, a stream of blood trailing behind him. He tumbled uncontrollably, the air itself trembling under the sheer might of Cain’s attack.

Cain’s eyes blazed with an unholy combination of power and killing intent as he followed his prey’s ascent, halberd raised high. His voice thundered across the sky, an unstoppable declaration of devastation.

“SUNSTORM DEVASTATION!”

A blinding explosion of flames and lightning erupted from Cain’s Shooting Star Dragon Halberd, the force alone enough to send shockwaves rolling across the entire continent. A colossal tornado of cosmic fire and lightning took form, so vast and immeasurable that it engulfed the entire landmass.

Everything—oceans, mountains, ruins, and rivers—was consumed by the raging inferno.

The sky itself turned red, trembling as the flames and lightning devoured everything in their path. The Gu cultivators watching from afar stood frozen, their eyes filled with awe and terror. They could do nothing but witness the apocalypse unfold before them.

But the true nightmare was inside.

Reverend Madness was caught at the very core of the cosmic tornado. Unlike the illusion of calm often found within the eye of an ordinary storm, here, there was no mercy.

An unbearable heat surrounded him, hotter than the core of a dying star, melting his flesh and scorching his soul. At the same time, a suffocating pressure wrapped around him like an unrelenting vice, crushing his very essence.

And then—Cain attacked.

He emerged from the raging flames, an unstoppable force, halberd swinging at speeds that defied reality. Despite his injuries, Reverend Madness managed to raise his sword just in time.

“ZNNNNNNN—!”

A shriek of metal echoed as the halberd sliced through his defenses. A deep, scorching wound appeared across his chest, causing him to stumble.

Immediate Cain vanished from Reverend Madness’s sight, only to reappear behind him, striking from the opposite direction.

“ZNNNNNNN—!”

Another brutal wound tore through his flesh, and this time, he couldn’t stop himself from screaming. Pain and fury mixed within him, but before he could retaliate, Cain had disappeared once more.

Like a phantom, Cain would materialize, strike, and vanish, each blow carving deeper wounds into the Archdeity’s body.

More and more wounds accumulated, and they were not normal injuries. Each cut was infected by Devourer’s Sovereign Flames, a deadly fire that consumed vitality and energy, feeding on its prey to grow stronger.

The flames burrowed into his wounds, spreading rapidly, turning his own strength into fuel for his destruction.

“AHHHHHHHHHHHH!” A scream of absolute agony tore from Reverend Madness’s throat as his right arm was severed. The limb tumbled into the inferno, vanishing into nothingness, swallowed by the cosmic storm.

Desperation took over. Rage and madness clouded Reverend Madness’ vision as he roared at the heavens.

“SHOW YOURSELF, YOU BASTARD!”

His entire plan, forged over hundreds of millions of years, was collapsing before his very eyes—because of one man. A mere cultivator who had not even lived a century. That was enough to break anyone’s heart.

As of answering the summon, a divine figure materialized on the zenith of the storm—wreathed in unshakable power, an unstoppable force of nature.

He raised his Shooting Star Dragon Halberd, its blade glowing brighter than a dying sun.

“PATH OF CONQUEST: SUNDERING CATACLYSMS!”

Cain did not hold back. Every ounce of his power, every Law he commanded, every drop of Star Power—was funneled into his weapon.

The halberd glowed with destructive force, pulsating with the energy of an impending supernova.

His gaze locked onto Reverend Madness—his final strike had come.

Cain descended from the sky like a comet of divine judgment, his speed surpassing light itself. The moment of reckoning had arrived.

Reverend Madness desperately raised his weapon—but it was futile. The halberd cleaved through it effortlessly, shattering it into molten fragments, and carried on downward.

The impact was merciless. The halberd sliced through Reverend Madness’s body, starting from his right shoulder and cutting diagonally to his left waist.

“BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!”

An explosion of unimaginable magnitude followed, ripping the world apart. The continent itself shattered, massive fragments hurled into the void.

The cosmic tornado erupted outward, incinerating everything in its wake. The shockwave was so immense that it rocked the entire world.

Gigantic tidal waves rose into the heavens, storms blotted out the sky, and even the fabric of reality trembled from the force of destruction.

This was why World Wills feared foreign Third Realm lifeforms. Their mere existence threatened the balance of reality—and battles of this scale left scars that could take millennia to heal.

At the epicenter of devastation, amidst the scorched wasteland that was once a continent, lay a broken figure.

Back in his original humanoid form, Reverend Madness lay motionless on the charred ground, struggling to breathe. Every internal organ—except his brain—had been set ablaze.

The fact that he was still alive was a testament to the Gu Path’s immense vitality. But even he knew—this was the end. His vision blurred. His mind struggled to comprehend what had happened.

And then he saw a young man descend calmly from the sky, his halberd still burning, his presence overwhelming.

It was over. The harbinger of destruction had arrived, and Reverend Madness could do nothing but await his fate.
