The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order - Chapter 972

Chapter 972: Alter Ego’s weaponization Chapter 972: Alter Ego’s weaponization Cain felt the power of the Alter-Ego, the gargantuan beast the size of a city capable of setting the sky ablaze.

The massive serpentine creature could fight on its own, and its power would be nothing short of extraordinary, matching half of the strength he could unleash with his body and Laws.

Of course, it took nearly every iota of Ego Wave to materialize such a gargantuan creature in the real world.

The most practical use of the Alter-Ego’s power would be to keep it inside the Soul Dimension, the realm within Cain’s brain, where it would increase his mental and spiritual defenses even more.  When inside the Soul Dimension, the Alter-Ego’s power could run through Cain’s body and energy.

It was better to have an extremely powerful entity than two average ones.  Cain stared at the Alter-Ego with a smile.

It carried a sense of immense purity and warmth that could help people rise and grow stronger.

The five-thousand-meter-tall serpentine creature carried the sun’s warmth, its power capable of healing the soul and mind of those who bask in its might.

That perfectly represented the most basic state of Cain’s personality and ego.

However, that majestic warmth and sense of empathy would not last for long.

A cold and sharp light appeared in Cain’s eyes as he adopted a meditative position in the sky.

According to the Codex of Infinite Pathways, the Fourth Realm of the Ego Eternal Path of Power was known as Mind Over Soul.

This stage represented the ultimate mastery of the soul, integrating it seamlessly with the mind, body, and energy.

It was extremely important as it would not only allow your willpower to fuse into your soul force, increasing the strength of your Inner World and Rebirth Heart.

If that was not enough, it would also improve your cultivation speed as it would enhance the development of the Sacred Organs.

The key to advancing past the Third Realm of the Ego Eternal Path of Power was through the weaponization of the Alter-Ego.

You needed to evolve its power, channeling the power of the Concepts into the psychic energy that formed its flesh and blood.

Once you do that, your Alter-Ego will not be just a metaphysical manifestation of your ego and willpower but will evolve into what you seek to become.

This was a very important decision in the cultivation path of power.

It would reveal what the powerhouse sought to achieve and what their journey through the first three Realms of the Ego Eternal Path of Power had taught them.

They needed to be true to themselves and no longer rely on insight and instincts.

A cultivator who sought to reach Mind Over Soul was someone who had seen beyond the threads of fate and who was no longer bound by the world’s naivety.

It was a master who would carve a unique path according to his desire and the way he sought to shape the world around him.

Cain was the supreme leader of Aether, a figure of worship by this point, and considered the ultimate existence capable of raising everybody that got near him.

However, the truth was Cain did not feel like that.

It was true that people around him got stronger, but the sources of most of that power were not him but the Absolute Life Form System.

It was through the modules and tools of the system that he could help the warriors of the Sacred Races to rise.

Of course, the Absolute Life Form System was part of his soul, so it was his power.

Yet, the one module that Cain had harmonized more purely was not the [Genetic Coder Module] that sought to improve and enhance bloodlines and growth, nor the [Enhancement Module] that sought to fix the flaws in people and help them rise.

When it came to the Absolute Life Form System, he harmonized in the purest form with the [Gluttony Module] to the point he was able to learn and strengthen a Concept through it, having developed the Gluttony Concept the most of all his Concepts.

It was true that Cain was a leader, but he was a leader of war.

Whenever he got in control of a large force, he led them into massacres.

Of course, he only killed the evil and wicked who sought to bully the frail and old.

Yet that did not change the fact that the first time he got in control of a powerful force, the Scarlet Inquisition, he used it to butcher and consume the underworld of the Hyperion Continent, devouring the lives and souls of billions.

Cain was not blind to his own transformation.

His initial drive, to spread life and seek power, had evolved into something more.

He no longer sought indiscriminate growth, but rather, whenever a problem arose in his path, he sought to destroy it and then consume it, using the corpses of his enemies to fuel his power.

This was a stark realization, a testament to his evolution.

As Cain accepted that side of him and knew his goals and path would not be one of kindness and indiscriminate growth, a sharp light appeared in his eyes as he began to summon the power of the Concepts he had mastered through his life.

Under the power of Cain’s will and soul force, streams of psychic force began to emerge from the sky and earth and flooded into the body of the Alter-Ego.

Four Concepts were channeled into the serpentine creature: one full of life, another full of power, one carrying a sundering aura, and the last and most potent carrying an insatiable devouring nature.

Cain observed the streams of psychic force channeling into the Alter-Ego, and changes began to stir within it.

However, these changes were painstakingly slow, a process that would span decades before the full evolution took place.  Luckily, Cain was special and the next second, his eyes glowed as he connected with the World King Avatar.

Immediately after that, the small streams of psychic energy burst, transforming into massive currents that flooded every inch of the Alter-Ego.
