The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order - Chapter 539
Chapter 539: Exploring the Dream World (II) Chapter 539: Exploring the Dream World (II) Their horses were marching at hundreds of kilometers per hour, and those on top could maintain their reins without problems.
Clearly, they were able to deploy physical abilities and a speed of thought superior to ordinary mortals.
‘This world’s cultivators?’ Cain’s interest was piqued as he saw those people.
If you want to learn more from a place, you will find more information from those with a higher status and power.
Although they were not really impressive, Cain still decided to follow them and saw how they dismounted from their horses before taking all sorts of weapons, with one person at the back holding a staff. Many of them began to charge different types of energy in their weapons while those in the back with magic robes unleashed spells that seemed to enhance the physical might of the melee warrior. Cain was a little surprised to see those abilities.
Although the magic boosts were not impressive and took a lot of time to charge, they were still abilities that cultivators in Aether did not have access to.
It didn’t take long for the group to come into contact with a pack of giant prehistoric bears.
The melee warriors immediately took the lead while the magic caster unleashed different offensive spells. The level of coordination and teamwork displayed among the group was impressive, but Cain couldn’t help but frown as he observed their limited abilities and power.
‘Warriors, archers, rangers, and wizards?
Is this the type of cultivation path from this world?’ Although Astral Rebirth Cultivation and Essence Evolution Cultivation shared characteristics with warriors and wizards, there was a significant difference in their abilities.
An Essence Evolution Cultivator could fight at close range and cast spells nearly instantaneously, not charging them like a wizard.
At the same time, Astral Rebirth Cultivation had a plethora of elemental and mid-long-range attacks they could use.
‘By their robes, I can tell they are some sort of nobility, but their battle power is too low.
A single Level 4 Wave Warrior could kill all of them if he takes them by surprise.’ Seeing their power and realizing how little he could learn from them, Cain left and headed into the city.
It was normal in several senses, with most of the population being regular people, and he only detected signs of cultivation in less than 5% of the population.
Cain visited different locations and listened to the conversations of many people.
Usually, he would wander and allow the [A.I.
Chip Module] to gather all the information and give him a detailed summary, but that was not possible in this case, and he was forced to use his own means.
It took him around ten minutes to discover that the city’s name was Gorlon City, under the control of the Gorlon Family, a Viscount Family.
Those who left to hunt were the Gorlon Viscount and his entourage.
“That power is enough to gain the title of Viscount?” In Aether, to become a Viscount, you would need to be at least a Wave Champion and have the power to level entire buildings with your bare hands, but the requirements in this place were much lower.
‘They may not put so much emphasis on brute power in this place.
It would make sense that connection, status, and armies would give you a position since there is a limit to the power of a single person.’ Cain continued gathering information and eventually found out that this was one of the countless cities under the reign of the Trinity Kingdom.
As Cain continued advancing toward the capital of the Trinity Kingdom, he saw larger cities.
Some had millions of inhabitants, with the number of cultivators increasing exponentially the more he advanced.
However, the social hierarchy remained the same, with a strict feudal system.
More than once, Cain observed people who seemed to have higher cultivation adopting a submissive stance towards those weaker but with a higher social status.
It became clear to Cain that social status alone was enough to allow certain people to do whatever they wanted. During his journey, Cain saw a man on horseback moving nearly three times the speed of sound, battling what seemed to be a massive dinosaur over ten meters tall.
The man could deploy battle power that could match a Wave Champion, yet it seemed that he could not rise into the sky or perform any type of aerial movement.
Although the clash between the warrior and the dinosaur was impressive from a brawling point of view, yet again, Cain noticed how the man’s range of skills was very limited. If that warrior and Astral Cultivator with the same level of physical might were to fight, there would be no doubt that the second would win.

After all, an Astral Cultivator could move through the air and use all sorts of spells to enhance himself and attack. It took Cain nearly ten hours of continuous flight before he finally saw a cultivator rising into the sky.
It was a woman in magic robes leading an army of fifty warriors on horseback.
‘Interesting.’ Cain’s eyes narrowed as he observed the woman and warriors.
The woman had various equipment on her person, while the warriors wore the same type of golden armor on their bodies and a set of large spears on their backs.
What drew Cain’s attention was that strange runes covered every one of those warriors’ armor and weapons. ‘Judging by the physical might and speed they can achieve, they seem to unleash battle power similar to a Late Wave Champion, so I assume the woman should be this world’s equivalent of a Wave King.’ Cain deviated from his path and followed the magic caster and the army.
It didn’t take long for them to reach what seemed to be a massive rocky mountain nearly fifty meters tall and hundreds of meters long.
‘Wait!’ Cain immediately noticed something amiss, but the magic caster raised her wand before he could figure out what was happening.
A torrent of energy emerged from her body, one so immense that it rivaled the energy pool of a Peak Wave King.
“Magma Ball Shower!” That alone was already impressive enough for Cain, but he was shocked to see hundreds of giant magma balls forming above the women.
It took a second to finish her spells before she fired it toward the rocky mountain. The power in that spell could compare to that of an Apotheosis Master’s spell, and her caster speed was not much slower.
“ROAR!” As soon as the magma balls fell, a roar emerged, and Cain realized that the fifty-meter-wide and hundreds-meter-long mountain range was actually a dragon with rocky skin. The mythical beast seemed to have been in a slumber, and pain appeared on its face as it raised its giant head and gazed at the magic caster in the sky.
The woman, not even 1.7 meters in height, smaller than the eyes of the creature, showed no fear as she raised her wand again.
Earth chains emerged from the ground, intertwining around the dragon’s wings, stopping the beast from rising into the sky.
“ROAAAARRRRRRR!” The Stone Dragon roared as it attempted to free itself from the shackles but could not.
It opened its maw as it charged a breath attack.
However, at this point, the warriors on horseback reached the beast, and their entire bodies began to glow.
Cain could discern the power of those riders, and in his eyes, they were only marching to their death.
Although it was true that numbers could make a difference in battle power at a certain point, fifty Wave Champions could do nothing to a beast capable of enduring an Apotheosis-level spell.
However, Cain used Aether’s reasoning, and what he saw next shattered that.
Runes began to glow on the horses, making them move like lightning, as runes also began to glow on the chest, shoulder, and arms of all the riders, not to mention that their spears also began to glow with overwhelming energy.
Those fifty riders, whom fifty Wave Champions of any path could have easily overcome, become as strong as Wave Kings!
They immediately divided into two groups, flanking the Stone Dragon, and just as the beast was about to unleash its breath attack against the magic caster in the sky, they sent their spears forward.
At this point, the runes finally showed their power as the thrusting force behind each of those spears was nothing short of an Early Wave King attack!
That alone was impressive, but the warriors showed such precision that all fifty spears landed simultaneously before exploding on the right and left side of the Stone Dragon’s neck.
The Stone Dragon had just been charging its breath attack, so the spears generated not only a bleeding wound on its neck but also a severe backlash, allowing the magic caster in the sky to finish casting her next spell.
“Meteor Fall!” A giant meteor roughly one-fourth of the Stone Dragon’s size fell from the sky, falling directly onto the creature’s back, pushing it into the ground and breaking several of its bones.
“ROOOOAAARRRR!” The Stone Dragon roared in pain, but before it could do anything, the riders took the second spear from their backs and charged their runes again before sending them hurtling toward the dragon’s neck, aiming right at the open wounds.
