The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order Chapter 2379 Killing the Immortal Knight

The Scarlet Kingdom's Knights and the True Primordial of the Void unleashed their strength relentlessly, shredding any True Depravita foolish enough to block their advance.

Swift and ruthless in their actions, they kept their sights trained on the pair leading the way. Destroying those red boxes would halt the influx of diving monsters, making it straightforward to dismantle the gravitational formation afterward. From there, uncovering the real culprit orchestrating this mayhem would simply be a question of moments.

Cold resolve flickered in Anark's gaze.

He understood full well the nature of the power driving this attack, and it was far from trivial. The Primordial Force of the Void echoed the desperation in his spirit, thundering wildly as it flooded his being.

With each pulse of his heart, the True Primordial of the Void pressed on at greater speed, warping space beneath his feet while his mere aura wiped out lesser Depravitas instantly.

High above the suspended metropolis, the Scarlet King ground his teeth.

Despite the aid from his four elite warriors, True Depravitas kept slamming into his Chaos Wings, bursting apart with ferocious force. Each blast rattled his frame, endangering the Scarlet Crown's stability and pulling it toward collapse. The burden weighed heavily, sapping his vitality at a terrifying pace.

Still, Cain stood firm. Every ounce of his physical and spiritual might stood prepared to conquer this disaster and eliminate the guilty party.

Unnoticed by him, though, a different shadow slipped across the Scarlet Crown.

A fifth entity existed—one immune to the crushing gravitational force. Apart from the two Primordials and the trio of Knights, just a single figure held the ability to bypass the formation without effort.

Sozing.

The Immortal Knight from the Tenth Empyrean World glided noiselessly across the airborne city, his essence masked with flawless precision. His stare cut like a dagger, pinning onto Cain's rear. Inch by inch, he closed in, reining in his presence so totally that no hint of disturbance rippled through the ambient energies.

This trap had exacted a steep toll.

Sozing had squandered some of the Tenth Empyrean World's most potent artifacts and exposed two of his vital puppets. Failure now meant no path to recovery. That very stakes drove him to risk it all.

As he neared the Scarlet King, the oppressive weight intensified.

Sozing had battled countless horrors. He had endured conflicts that fractured the Ten Empyrean Suns Universe down the middle. He had strode the pinnacle of reality alongside the one who reshaped fate. And still—

For all his experience...

"A serpent seems to wrap around me, poised to swallow me whole."

This individual hadn't even reached three centuries, yet he instilled dread in Sozing.

"Should his ascent go unchecked," Sozing mused darkly, "his venom might eventually target Adam."

A fierce commitment, drawn from his innermost core, ignited within.

Sozing aligned himself ideally.

Right then, a fresh barrage of Shooting Star True Depravitas hammered the Chaos Wings. The airborne city shuddered fiercely, compelling Cain's power to flare out and steady it.

There it was—the vulnerability.

Sozing struck.

He darted ahead with velocity that would stun even an Alpha-Omega Overgod, all while leaking not the tiniest wisp of presence. His palm shot forth like a bolt, aiming straight for Cain's skull.

However—

As his fingertips hovered mere inches from contact—

A pair of crimson eyes, brimming with vast depths of feeling, fixed upon him.

In that split second, the combined yearnings, resolves, and shards of faith and zeal from the countless soldiers who trusted in Cain exploded outward. Their collective trust hammered into Sozing's spirit and psyche like an unstoppable surge.

And then—

A lance thrust ahead.

It bore the might to obliterate all of creation.

Not even the formidable Immortal Knight of the Tenth Empyrean World—the mentor to Adam—could halt the Zero-State Spear from striking his forehead.

Having stifled his entire power to stay hidden, his body offered no resistance.

The spear drove into his cranium.

It tore through his mind and burst out the rear of his skull amid a gush of blood and brain tissue.

The Scarlet King's eyes blazed with murderous chill that halted time and space as he glared straight at Sozing.

"This domain rose from my own blood and spirit," Cain stated evenly. "You hid your motives and feelings masterfully. But alas for you... your resolve shone a touch too fiercely."

Sozing's eyes bulged.

Disbelief gripped him.

His own resolve had undone him.

The youth facing him was a fiend.

Before Sozing could scramble to turn the tide, the Scarlet King's stare unleashed a force echoing his sibling's dominion.

"Chaos of Extermination: Soul Unraveling."

A ruinous torrent of energy raced along the Zero-State Spear, shredding Sozing's soul apart. This force closely mirrored the one the Crimson Exarch had wielded to nearly shatter the Ancient One's head—a beast teetering at the Alpha-Omega Overgod Rank's edge.

The Immortal Knight's facade dissolved, exposing his authentic shape as the glow in his eyes dimmed to oblivion.

Pity found no place.

Mercy held no sway.

Cain observed impassively as the Immortal Knight's soul faced total annihilation, vanishing forever.

Only upon verifying the end had come did Cain permit himself one easing breath.

It would ring false to claim he hadn't suspected the Tenth Empyrean World. This strike had caught him off guard—but ultimately, it resolved favorably.

Or that's what he assumed.

Abruptly—

Sozing's eyes ignited anew.

"Impossible!" Cain bellowed.

He was positive the kill had stuck.

Before grasping the unfolding events, Sozing seized the spear in one grip and shoved his mangled form closer. Crimson flowed unchecked, but it enabled the Immortal Knight to fulfill his aim at last.

His fist sank into Cain's cranium.

"I won."
