The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 2233: The power of ten million suns

Cain allowed a smile of absolute thrill to spread across his face as he examined his new stats. Thanks to completing the Eclipse Monolith Inheritance—and activating the Flawless Adaptive Evolution Enhancement—his vitality had skyrocketed, surpassing the five-hundred point mark.

That was nearly twice the vitality possessed by Bradly, an Early Alpha-Omega Overgod Neo-Angel renowned for his overwhelming physical capabilities. The comparison alone was enough to make even an Overgod pause in astonishment.

His other attributes had also risen significantly. The Light of the Flow now coursed through his body with greater intensity, refining both flesh and soul in a single, unified upgrade. Those monstrous defensive capabilities would prove invaluable when the time came to confront the horrors lurking within the Heart of the Root.

Finally, his gaze settled on his Proto Laws, and he nodded with satisfaction as his eyes reached the entry labeled Absolute Emptiness.

The Cosmic Anvil Scripture required Proto Laws of Space, Time, Gravity, and Vacuum as a foundation for proper cultivation.

Cain had already mastered the first three; however, the Law of Vacuum was a far more complex discipline—powerful, obscure, and notoriously difficult to pioneer. If he had relied on his own insight alone, forming a proper Proto Law could have taken an exceedingly long time. But thanks to the cultivation insights extracted from the thousands of Third Realm Masters he and the ArchDeities had locked within the Scarlet Throne, everything had become much easier.

He had already reached a remarkably high level without expending much effort. Now that he could fully dedicate his mind to finishing the Proto Law, he knew without doubt that the breakthrough would come quickly, which was essential, since he needed it in order to evolve his Inner Universe to the ArchDeity Rank.

Cain closed his eyes and immersed himself in the principles and cosmic currents defining the Law of Vacuum. He did not undertake the task alone. The A.I. Chip Module activated in tandem, deciphering the fragmented insights and imprinting them directly into his mind and soul.

It did not take long before an emptiness began to manifest around him. Light dimmed. Sound dulled. Even the fabric of space itself seemed to thin and retreat from his presence. The void grew deeper with each passing day, consuming all traces of perceptible existence.

Eight days later, the Proto Law of Absolute Emptiness reached 100%. The moment it did, a profound wave of energy surged through Cain’s existence, as though the universe itself acknowledged the accomplishment.

He opened his eyes slowly. After a brief inspection of his Inner Universe, he gave a solemn, decisive nod. "I am ready."

Cain’s Inner Universe was already vast. Its internal rules and governing principles had been refined to an incredibly high level for a Prima Deity—so high, in fact, that it produced an overwhelming flow of energy capable of rivaling that of a Late ArchDeity, despite Cain still being only a Peak Prima Deity. That strength came from the monstrous foundation his cultivation path demanded.

Now he stood at the next evolutionary threshold: advancing his Inner Universe by evolving the fragment of his soul held within the Evolution Core.

The goal was to transform it into a Universe Will.

With that transformation, Cain would not merely possess an Inner Universe—he would become one.

The essence of this step was the forging of the Universe Singularity: the core around which the Inner Universe revolved, where its highest principles resided, and where the Universe Will would take root. It was an extremely delicate process, one that held immense significance.

The power of the Universe Singularity would determine whether his Inner Universe could evolve into the Alpha-Omega Overgod Rank in the future.

Normally, as long as one had accumulated a high enough foundation, this stage did not pose major danger. But Cain was not following a normal path. The Cosmic Anvil Scripture described a different method—one that could grant an extraordinary surge in power and potential.

Most techniques relied on the formation of a unique type of black hole, shaped by the cultivator’s battle style and laws. Such black holes acted as perfect anchors: embodiments of immense gravity and stabilized space-time, providing the structural force needed for a stable singularity.

However, the Cosmic Anvil Scripture demanded the creation of something far more awe-inspiring:

A Black Hole Star.

These cosmic bodies existed only at the dawn of creation, born when matter was unimaginably dense and temperatures infinitely high. Their size dwarfed ordinary cosmic structures—some spanning entire galaxies—and the energy they emitted each second rivaled the simultaneous explosion of ten million suns. To reproduce one inside an Inner Universe was nothing less than an act of divine defiance.

Cain drew a slow, steady breath, preparing both soul and mind. The moment he felt every strand of his being aligned, he began.

The first step was to extract the piece of his soul embedded within the Evolution Core and concentrate it at the exact center of his Inner Universe. Instantly, tremendous soul force converged, expanding and intensifying as it condensed into a radiant sky-blue core. The energy density rose with every heartbeat.

Next, Cain tapped into the Primarch of Conquest Leviathan and began channeling a portion of his vast ego into the sky-blue sphere. Mind and soul merged, forming a unified locus of identity and intent. Cain’s Alter-Ego was exceedingly powerful—borderline Alpha-Omega Overgod—so he could channel a massive amount of consciousness into the sphere without risk of collapse.

Once both forces reached their absolute limit, the dangerous phase began.

Cain sent wave after wave of treasures into his Inner Universe—nearly every artifact he had obtained from the ArchDeities he had slain, as well as the entirety of Draco’s possessions. Draco had been the wealthiest individual in the entire Abyssacrown Empyrean World; the sheer material value of his collection was absurd.

Under the transformative pressure of Cain’s Inner Universe, those treasures began to liquefy—melting into streams of condensed essence and refined value. Slowly, inexorably, they fused into the sky-blue spirit core, feeding it, enriching it, reforging it.

And under that unimaginable influx of cosmic nourishment...

A star began to form.
