Chapter 475: More Chaos Fiendgod than a Chaos Fiendgod
🕑 Added 2024-03-15 13:00:17 +0000 UTCTianyi stilled for a brief moment. He couldn’t help but wonder what the remnant chaos fiendgod meant by that comment. Still, his actions did not stop. He could ponder the meaning behind the words afterward.
In contrast, the remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams couldn’t help but murmur. “Fiendgod of Spacetime? No, there wasn’t such a fiendgod. Are you a new fiendgod that inherited Shichen and Yangmei’s power?”
“Stop! We should be on the same side!” the remnant chaos fiendgod said as he avoided the Immortal Confining Sword. “As long as we destroy this damn world that Pangu created and absorb everything, we can regain our might. No one will be our opponents anymore!”
Tianyi furrowed his brows. He halted his actions and asked. “Explain everything.”
The remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams retreated, but Tianyi would fly forward so that the latter wouldn’t exceed a certain distance from him. The chaos fiendgod stopped. “Okay, I’ll explain, but can you tell me how you were born? After Pangu killed all of us, I didn’t think it was possible for another fiendgod to be born.”
“Fiendgod, do you mean divinities?” Tianyi asked. If the Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams mistook him for a divinity, he would not be too surprised. After all, he showed certain characteristics of a divinity, especially essence.
The Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams sneered. “Divinities? Those fake fiendgods? True chaos fiendgods are a world unto themselves and can exist in the primordial chaos. These divinities can only survive in Pangu’s world. They are but a poor imitation at best.”
Tianyi’s eyes narrowed. “So, all fiendgods are both realms and lifeforms.”
“You can think of it that way.”
‘Did he sense my inner universe and mistake it as a realm? From a certain point of view, my inner universe can be likened to a realm, so it’s not out of the norm of possibility to mistake me as a fiendgod because of that. Still, I only showed the essence and nothing else. How did he identify me as a fiendgod?’ Tianyi was puzzled, so he asked.
“Then why did you identify me as a fiendgod?” Tianyi asked.
“You really don’t know?” the remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams asked. “Unless a fiendgod deliberately hides it, a fiendgod will always recognize another fiendgod.”
Tianyi furrowed his brows. ‘Then why can’t I sense anything different about you? Is it because I haven’t mastered a divine level law?’
He sighed. “Alright, that’s enough. I wanted to speak some more, but who told you to secretly make some moves?”
The white mist that seemed to have calmed down rumbled once more. The remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams sneered. “Aren’t you the same? An exalted fiendgod reduced to doing the bidding of bugs. Oh, how low you have fallen. Don’t think I don’t know about the bugs coming here.”
Tianyi frowned. Even he couldn’t sense the immortal emperors quickly making their way here. He wanted to teleport them, but he didn’t have enough conduits, and he didn’t know their current location either. He didn’t say another word and slashed his sword out.
However, the remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams seemed to have expected this and expanded, like exploding steam. When the steam disappeared, his body had split into thousands of copies, fleeing in all directions.
Tianyi wasn’t slow either. He released his Nebulous Negation, but as he expected, it barely slowed down the remnant chaos fiendgod. He couldn’t negate the unique energy of a fiendgod. At most, he slowed down by five percent. Hardly worth the cost of activating and maintaining the technique, but if nothing, Tianyi boasted endless energy.
After a moment of hesitation, Tianyi also split himself into thousands of bodies, eliciting the fleeing fiendgod to sneer. “Save your effort. Your weak avatars can’t capture me. Once I regain my power, I’ll avenge this humiliation!”
‘Are you aware that your words only want me to capture you even more?’ Tianyi thought. If the situation hadn’t been so serious, he would have wanted to roll his eyes.
The remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams’ words weren’t wrong. He had split his strongest conduits into thousands, drastically reducing their power. They barely had the power of a true immortal, but even so, Tianyi didn’t need them to be too strong.
Each conduit teleported and blocked the wave of the fleeing Chaos Fiendgod. They waved their hands and opened thousands of portals to the Nine Heavens Universe. From within those portals, thousands of Stellar Silences shot out.
Those burning stars exploded once they neared the chaos fiendgod’s split bodies, but just like when Tianyi first used Constellation Cessation, they could not harm the chaos fiendgod. Only the process was a bit different. Instead of erasing the attack from reality, those Stellar Silences phased through the chaos fiendgod’s many bodies as if they existed on different planes of existences.
There was only one Immortal Confining Sword, but thousands of Tianyi and the chaos fiendgod. In this state, Tianyi couldn’t do anything to the latter. He tried all his techniques, even attempting to freeze spacetime and trapped them, but with no results.
‘Do I really have to bring out my Nine Heavens Universe? I’m definitely going to be struck by tribulation lightning after that!’ Tianyi furrowed his brows. An idea popped into his mind. He didn’t think it would work, but he had to try.
One of his conduits teleported directly into one of the many chaos fiendgod split bodies. The conduit emitted a vast suction force, absorbing the mist through his skin into the Nine Heavens Universe. Tianyi knew it was a longshot, but the earlier bout proved that he could absorb the Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams’ mist. If that was the case, why not just attempt to absorb the chaos fiendgod?
The size difference would inevitably make it a long-term project. Still, Tianyi had no other ideas at the moment except summoning his Nine Heavens Universe and absorbing the surrounding space. But that would incur punishment tribulation. ‘If only Everpast had succeeded, I wouldn’t be in this situation! Now, even if reinforcement arrives, I’d still have to chase after all these split bodies.’
‘Wait,’ Tianyi thought. With but a thought, Minister Everpast, Primewood, and Vastlight reappeared in the Vast Void. After Tianyi explained the situation to them, they nodded after a moment of hesitation. One of Tianyi’s conduits accompanied them.
Tianyi’s conduit teleported them each to different areas with high concentrations of the chaos fiendgod’s body. The three immortal ministers used their realm artifacts to expand to trap as many of the chaos fiendgod’s bodies as possible before condensing.
The remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams sneered once. “Wishful thinking. Do you think that you can stop me just by absorbing my body?!”
Tianyi ignored the chaos fiendgod’s words as his numerous conduits continued to absorb the chaos fiendgod’s body. The remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams even helped. The white mist willingly flowed into Tianyi’s body.
The remnant chaos fiendgod couldn’t help but question Tianyi’s intelligence. Did he think he could wantonly absorb another chaos fiendgod? As a fiendgod, Tianyi was a very nutritional supplement for him. He might have worried if Tianyi displayed a divine level law, but Tianyi’s Law of Spacetime did not reach that point. He had confidence that his Law of Dreams could suppress Tianyi’s Law of Spacetime, allowing him to absorb the latter.
His plans and arrogance did not last long. “What?! What did you do to my bodies? Why can’t I sense them?”
He didn’t panic when a few of his bodies became trapped in those artifacts. Although he couldn’t escape them, he didn’t think these insignificant bugs could harm him. His existence was akin to an immortal monarch competing against true immortals and those below. Unless they reached a certain requirement, they could not harm him. However, Tianyi could.
The remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams couldn’t think of a reason for how Tianyi did it. It was unlike his original plan of absorbing Tianyi. He couldn’t feel himself in Tianyi’s body. It was more like Tianyi had teleported his split bodies into another area that he couldn’t sense.
He attempted to erase Tianyi’s bodies like he had done before, but this time, he encountered a staunch resistance. His rate of erasing Tianyi did not exceed Tianyi’s rate of absorbing his bodies.
During this time, Tianyi had the three immortal ministers absorb the chaos fiendgod’s many bodies. Compared to him directly absorbing the chaos fiendgod, it was much faster to trap them inside the realm artifacts and then deliver them into his Nine Heavens Universe.
The remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams no longer attempted to stop Tianyi and focused solely on fleeing. He ran through his mind on how to escape this disaster, but no method worked. He couldn’t outrun Tianyi because the latter could teleport. And, his many bodies also decreased faster because of those three insignificant bugs.
He wanted to kill those three bugs and draw out the time. However, Tianyi would always protect them, and he could defend against those realm artifacts in his split state. This naturally resulted in more and more split bodies disappearing into Tianyi’s inner universe.
Later, six more immortal officials appeared, each carrying realm artifacts. Under their aid, Tianyi absorbed the remnant chaos fiendgod even faster. Still, because of the chaos fiendgods many bodies, it still took months to finish.
“Dammit, dammit!” the remnant Chaos Fiendgod of Dreams cursed as he fled. Right now, he only had a single body left, and surrounding him were Tianyi and those nine bugs. “Why! Why are you on their side?”
“Maybe, because I’m not a chaos fiendgod like you think?” Tianyi asked. His method of cultivation might really turn himself into a fiendgod, but it definitely isn’t like those natural fiendgods.
“Impossible, you are even more like a chaos fiendgod than me!” the remnant chaos fiendgod shouted. But he didn’t have any time to spout any words because Minister Everpast used his realm artifact to trap him.
Minister Everpast handed the realm artifact to Tianyi, who absorbed it into his Nine Heavens Universe. A second later, the realm artifact reappeared in his hands, and he handed it back to Minister Everpast. He lazily stretched his waist. “Finally over. This took way too long. Let’s go back now.”
Minister Everpast and the other immortal officials nodded, exhausted. Still, smiles appeared on their faces. Although dangerous and tiring, the gains outweighed the losses. A chaos fiendgod was practically a wealth of resources. In the Immortal Court’s records, the amount of times successfully capturing a chaos fiendgod did not exceed the number of fingers in one hand. And all of them happened in the primordial era. Still, none of them worried that they could use the chaos fiendgod. It would just take more time.
“Hm?” Tianyi felt something sharp brush against his consciousness, and he headed toward the source. He released his immortal sense and attempted to capture the source, but found nothing.
“Is something wrong?” Minister Everpast asked.
Tianyi shook his head. “No, it might just be my imagination.”

On the other side of the Vast Void stood a man with sword-like brows and a sharp gaze. He wore a simple garb robe with a sword sheathed on his waist.
“Quite sharp, that one,” Bao Ling said. He shook his head and waited for Tianyi and the nine immortals to leave. Once they returned to the Primordial Realm, he turned his attention to the desolate realm in front of him.
He unsheathed the sword at his waist and raised it above his head. Then, he brought it down. That simple movement only sliced through empty space in the Vast Void, but in the next moment, the desolate realm split in half.
With its dimensional boundaries broken, it became exposed to the Vast Void. The ground crumbled, and the sky shattered. Luckily, no life existed in this broken realm, otherwise the amount of Karmic Sin would have skyrocketed. However, that didn’t mean Bao Ling’s action didn’t incur Karmic Sin.
Vast amounts of Karmic Sin gathered on Bao Ling’s body, but the moment they came into contact, the Karmic Sin vanished under his skin. This continued until all the Karmic Sin disappeared, and Bao Ling continued to stare at the crumbling realm, as if the Karmic Sin didn’t exist.
A smile appeared on his face when a gray mist with countless tiny motes of lights appeared when the desolate realm completely broke down. This was realm essence. Bao Ling reached out his hand and made a grabbing motion, causing the realm essence to fly toward him.
Like the Karmic Sin, the realm essence flowed into Bao Ling’s body. “Onto the next one.”

Why collect Karmic Sin? Can he cultivate karmic sin to strengthen himself?? That doesn't seem like it should be a thing.
