The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Cain's Law of Space reinforced the domain of Blood Energy so no one could see what happened inside. Yet they did not have to wait long as the domain vanished after three seconds.

General Casidius was no longer present, but there was a blood stain on the ground where the God had been standing.

"With that, the crimes of the Inferno Daemon Invasion Army are paid."

The Gods' eyes widened as they heard Cain's cold voice and saw the blood from General Casidius splashed across the ground. Although there was no corpse, that blood definitely belonged to the man, as they could feel the soul aura of this one in it. Some Gods could not help but turn toward Cain with rage.

Cain felt their killing intent but did not blame them as that was a natural response to someone who killed your friend.

"With your permission, Scarlet King, we will retire."

God Zinir used all his power to control his sadness and rage as he nodded toward Cain, intending to take the incapacitated Apotheosis Masters that could not rise from the ground and leave.

"Wait."

However, before Zinir could guide the rest of the Gods, Cain raised his hand, stopping the man, and his energy began to rise.

Just as the Titans and Gods were wondering what Cain would do, he raised his hand, and flames with 19 colors began to emerge. It did not take long for 71 of those flames to appear, and immediately, a flash of enlightenment appeared in the eyes of Zinir and the other Gods.

71 were exactly the number of Gods, Divine Ascension Masters, and Apotheosis Masters that remained from the Inferno Daemon Invasion Army.

"The damage to your bodies will kill all the Apotheosis Masters and half of the Divine Ascension Masters before you can reach Atlas. Since I said you can return home alive, I will ensure that is the case."

Shock appeared in the eyes of the Gods as they heard those words. They had all seen the power of those multicolored fires and could not believe Cain would use that force in them.

The next second, Cain's Ego Wave covered the area, generating a cocoon around the Inferno Daemons present as he sent the flames into each cocoon and triggered the 19 Revolution Refinements.

Immediately, giant waves of world energy flooded the area, all pouring into the Inferno Daemons and triggering the evolution of their foundation and talent. The effect was not immensely powerful since it was only a 19 Revolution Refinement. Still, it helped their cells and energy evolve, healing the damage to their bodies and wounded life force.

Controlling 71 Tribulation Enhancements was a titanic task, even if they were 19 Revolution Refinements. Nevertheless, Cain's soul force had grown much stronger, and his control over energy had improved immensely. By pushing his mind to the limit, he was able to carry on with the process without flaws.

The mood of the Titans was not so great as they saw the enemy army being healed, but it was something they could accept given all that had happened, so they remained quiet as Cain carried on with the Tribulation Enhancement.

It took nearly two hours for Cain to finish the 71 Tribulation Enhancements. His face was pale and exhausted, yet his immense vitality immediately began to heal him.

As for the Inferno Daemons, all of them gazed at the Scarlet King with awe and gratitude, especially those who were agonizing and felt how their life force was about to fade at any second before the Tribulation Enhancement.

Of course, they were still wounded, and it would require months, if not years, to fully heal, but that was better than before when they would have perished in a matter of hours.

Zinir and the rest of the Gods felt extremely conflicted. While the rage and sadness for General Casidius remained, they had to accept they felt gratitude to the Scarlet King as the man was honorable and kept his word no matter what.

"I thank you on behalf of my comrades. We will now leave Gaia, Scarlet King."

Zinir was once again the one who spoke; this time, the man clasped his hands and bowed toward the young man in the sky.

"You have 72 hours to exit Gaia."

Cain stared at the God as he set the timeline, and Zinir nodded.

The Gods were fast, using spells to carry on the Apotheosis Masters before flashing north at full speed with the rest of the Divine Ascension Masters. There were still people in the Trinity Dark Tower, so they had to stop there, but there was plenty of time since, at full speed, they should return to Atlas in less than two days.

The Collapsing Lightning Duke waited until the Gods were far gone before speaking to Cain.

"Should we return to the fortress in the Crystal Mountains?"

Although the coalition was named the Collapsing Lightning Alliance, the Collapsing Lightning Duke did not fool himself into thinking he was still the force's leader. The one with the highest authority was the young man standing in the sky.

Cain stared at the Collapsing Lightning Duke for a moment before softly shaking his head as he looked at the ground with a solemn expression.

"I cannot leave yet. Wait in the distance and take your missing limbs with you. I will heal your wounds once we return, but it will be easier to reattach them than grow them from scratch."

Those words confused the Titans, but then the ground trembled as a catastrophic terrestrial force began to arise. As the vibrations grew more and more intense, it became clear to all what was happening.

"The Earth Tribulation."

The Collapsing Lightning Duke was shocked to feel so much power in a Tribulation that was supposed to test an Apotheosis Master. He did not hesitate and grabbed his missing arm before flashing away along with the rest of the Titans, putting hundreds of kilometers between them and Cain.
