The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order - Chapter 1635

Chapter 1635: Pledge your allegiance or face death
“Awesome!” Cain exclaimed excitedly upon witnessing the formidable defenses of the Gu Sect. A genuine thrill flashed across his eyes, revealing his true feelings about the sect’s extraordinary defensive measures. “Even if I used Liberación Total and fully merged with Leviathan, it might not be enough to break through that forcefield without sustaining severe damage.”

Yet, despite his words, Cain did not see the Gu Sect’s defensive formation as a real obstacle. The reality was simpler—he was merely testing the limits of their protections.

With a single thought, the colossal figure of the Lord of Conquest Leviathan swiftly returned to his Soul Dimension. Cain’s cold, focused gaze shifted towards the two Third Realm Masters positioned atop the sect’s highest tower.

Slowly, Cain raised his right hand, and with an almost casual movement, he snapped his fingers.

From this seemingly simple gesture emerged a strange spiritual wave. This wave, however, did not carry Cain’s distinctive spiritual signature. Instead, it exuded a far more sinister and ancient aura—the unmistakable spiritual presence of Reverend Madness!

At the precise moment this corrupted spiritual energy made contact with the Gu Sect’s protective dome, the formidable formation violently shuddered.

Then, under the horrified gazes of millions of disciples and elders, the intricate defensive formations and magical matrices protecting the entire city underwent a rapid transformation. Every single array and rune quickly shifted to a vibrant, haunting scarlet—the exact same shade as Cain’s fiery, nebula-like eyes.

Unknown to everyone within the Gu Sect, Reverend Madness had meticulously prepared every detail for his eventual rebirth, painstakingly ensuring that when the time came, the entire Gu Sect would unconditionally obey his command.

Each formation, array, and matrix governing both defense and offense was precisely attuned to resonate with the spiritual imprint of Reverend Madness, immediately rewriting their internal configurations upon activation by his unique aura.

Although the ancient monster himself was no longer among the living, Cain had captured Reverend Madness’s soul and sealed it within the Scarlet Throne. Now, he had full control over its power, effectively hijacking the plans Reverend Madness had laid out and taking command of the entire Gu Sect’s protective and offensive capabilities.

Naturally, neither the fiery-haired youth nor the wingless dragon had any inkling of this hidden mechanism, leaving them stunned beyond belief when they realized they had lost total control over their own city’s defense network.

To make matters worse, within mere seconds, all offensive weapons—powerful formations capable of harming Third Realm Masters—swiftly reoriented their aim towards the two bewildered Patriarchs!

“ZNNNN!” “ZNNNN!” “ZNNNN!” “ZNNNN!”

Half a dozen beams of concentrated energy, each powerful enough to threaten Third Realm existences, suddenly shot forth from all directions, targeting the Gu Sect’s former rulers without mercy.

With no time to ponder their situation, both Patriarchs immediately reacted, unleashing immense bursts of energy as they desperately dodged the incoming beams. They soared into the highest reaches of the sky, pushing their bodies to their absolute limits, evading each attack with practiced precision.

Although each destructive beam carried terrifying strength, the attacks were quite predictable. Thus, evading them proved manageable for the two seasoned Third Realm Masters. Yet, the moment Karter and Lancer left the Gu Sect’s immediate vicinity, the forcefield surrounding the city reignited with immense power—but this time, rather than welcoming them, the shield fiercely repelled them.

The Gu Sect—the organization they had ruled with an iron fist for millions of years, the foundation of their strength, the sanctuary they had always relied upon—had abruptly betrayed them, recognizing them as enemies and actively forcing them out.

“Karter, the Boy of Fire, and Lancer, the Dark Dragon,” a cold voice reverberated ominously throughout the sky, instantly shaking the two Third Realm Masters to their cores.

A shiver of dread ran down their spines as they slowly turned toward the speaker. Hovering calmly in midair, Cain Laurifer watched them with eyes burning brightly in a blend of radiant red flames and mysterious golden light, a cruel smile etched upon his lips.

“Bow down now and pledge your allegiance to me, or face death.”

The first thought flashing through the minds of both Patriarchs was instinctively clear: run. They knew they lacked the strength to challenge Cain directly, but as long as they managed to escape, they could find refuge elsewhere.

Countless powerful factions across other continents would willingly welcome Third Realm Masters, even ones fleeing defeat. Their positions might never be as dominant or prestigious as they had been within the Gu Sect, but it would undoubtedly surpass a lifetime of servitude to this merciless young conqueror.

Yet Cain’s eyes, blazing with the subtle golden hue of insight, saw right through their intentions. He had no plans of allowing them to flee. Instantly, Cain extended his right hand forward.

“Dominion Eclipse Core!”

Suddenly, an ominous sphere of darkness materialized within Cain’s outstretched palm, covered entirely by countless scarlet runes, each pulsating rhythmically with immense power.

In the blink of an eye, the sphere expanded exponentially, spreading across thousands of kilometers. The entire region plunged into darkness, shrouded beneath a veil of cosmic shadow and scarlet flames that devoured light itself.

Those cultivators present during Cain’s legendary battle against Reverend Madness immediately recalled the devastating domain he had unleashed back then—covering an entire continent. Yet, this domain appeared even more horrifying and potent.

The Dominion Eclipse Core was one of Cain’s most terrifying new abilities, born directly from the fusion of the Shooting Star Dragon’s Eclipse Devourer Sphere and the Endless Dominion technique from his Path of Conquest.

One of Cain’s greatest achievements during his time in the Gu World was refining a versatile combat style that seamlessly combined every aspect of his cultivation paths. Now, he eagerly awaited the chance to test its effectiveness firsthand.

Caught within this overpowering domain, Karter and Lancer were struck with overwhelming horror. Not only did they immediately feel their control over energy and cosmic forces diminish drastically, but the dark sphere from which this oppressive domain originated exerted an irresistible devouring force.

This monstrous gravitational pull relentlessly consumed energy from the surroundings while firmly gripping their bodies, steadily dragging them closer to its abyssal core.

While resisting the gravitational force was not impossible, attempting to flee had now become utterly futile.

As the two Patriarchs frantically contemplated their next moves, Cain suddenly appeared directly between them, his eyes glowing fiercely with a frightening mixture of blazing scarlet flames and piercing golden radiance.
