The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

The Atrox uttered no more words as he turned around, flashing back to his home.

After the Scarlet King saw the man's Ego Wave, he immediately adjusted the level of threat of this one to that of Gods. Even though he had yet to fuse his soul into his Sacred Organ, his willpower was already evolving deep into the Divine Ascension Realm.

'Interesting.'

While the man was a threat, the Scarlet King also saw an opportunity. While that person would kill him if he harmed Astrid, he couldn't help but wonder what this one would do if he helped her.

The Scarlet King's smile returned to his face as he returned to the central plaza, and instead of returning to the Magma Castle, he made his way out of Evernight. No one questioned him since this was not the first time he had left the city, and he was not a prisoner or anything like that, so he could do whatever he wanted within the confines of the Sector.

Once the Scarlet King was out of the city's walls, he rose to the sky and flashed into the Silent Forest, vanishing among the trees. Not even a minute had passed before three individuals followed him, hiding their auras and making sure not to draw attention.

The trio that left after the Scarlet King were all Wave Kings, and the one leading the group was none other than Janiro, the guard who had been waiting for him at the city wall to finish the job that Orphin and the others had started.

Due to his devious behavior, Marshal Damos fired Janiro, severing his income and putting him in a tough spot with all the people he was doing business with. The employer who gave him Kain's contract made it clear that he would have to take care of the young man or that losing his job would be the least of his problems.

Janiro had already directed all his rage and blame for his current situation toward Kain, so he was more than happy to take care of the young man, especially if that would help smooth things over with the people of the underworld.

Despite Janiro's questionable work ethic, he was not a fool and knew that Kain was a genius by the way he could stop a Wave King's momentum, so he brought help.

'Three Wave Kings to take care of a Wave Champion should be more than enough.'

Just as that thought crossed Janiro's mind, his eyes widened as Kain's presence suddenly vanished. He looked to the other two Wave Kings by his side, and they were also shocked as they did not understand what was happening.@@novelbin@@

"I assume you three were looking for my disciple."

Utter shock appeared in the eyes of the three Wave Kings when they heard a cold voice and noticed a man with a red mask appearing behind them.

Janiro's instincts screamed with terror as he saw that red light in the man's eyes and felt he was in the presence of an absolute monster. The idea of fighting immediately faded from his mind, and right now, he only wanted to escape.

Unfortunately for the Atrox, before he could even take a step, the Scarlet King burst his Essence Wave and flashed forward, appearing right before him. The idea that an Essence Cultivator would purposely diminish the distance with an Astral Cultivator was ridiculous, especially if they were a rank apart, yet it happened.

'¿A chance?'

Realizing they were right next to each other, Janiro couldn't help but think that maybe running away was not necessary, and he could end the man with a blow. Yet, the Scarlet King's palm struck his chest before he could fire an attack.

The palm strike had zero strength, and Janiro barely felt it, but to his shock, that blow seemed to channel a unique force into his body, reaching his heart and freezing his blood flow!

His blood suddenly freezing generated an overwhelming feeling of suffocation, so it was not surprising that Janiro fell to the ground and couldn't move. The other Wave Kings saw that and attempted to run, but the Scarlet King was too fast, striking the chest of both and freezing their blood flow, paralyzing the trio in less than five seconds.

The Scarlet King saw the three Wave Kings immobilized on the ground and smiled as he saw the might of his palm strike once he harnessed the power of the Law of Blood. He could have easily knocked out the trio using his Ego Wave, but he wanted to see what the Law of Blood could do after its evolution to the Law Fragmentation Stage.

Even without a Saint Technique's guidance, the Law's power did not disappoint.

"I needed test subjects for my experiment, and I am happy to have some volunteers."

That was the last thing Janiro and the other Wave Kings heard before a powerful Ego Wave invaded their minds and left them unconscious.

---

Janiro and the other Wave Kings opened their eyes and found themselves on the peak of a massive mountain. Before them stood the man with a red mask, and in his hand were three spheres with revolving flames, each with nine colors.

The trio did not know the meaning of the flames, but if someone who understood Tribulation Enhancement were to see them, they would be shocked. And that shock would turn into true and absolute awe if they were to know that the man had begun his path less than two months ago.

The Scarlet King smiled as he saw the three 9 Revolution Flames. He had followed Astrid's advice, and after less than two days, he evolved his 8 Revolution Flames to the next level, achieving the peak of the Grand Tribulation Enhancer Rank! Read latest chapters at My Virtual Library Empire

Janiro and the others had not woken up on their own; the Scarlet King allowed them to regain consciousness since the chances of success would be better if they were awake and used their minds to help assimilate the energy into their bodies.

Of course, the fact that they were awake did not mean they had control over their actions, as the Scarlet King focused on one of the Atrox Wave Kings, and the body of this one moved on its own, jumping into the Refinement Cauldron.
