Chapter 477 Ch 477: A Legend
Ling Xiaolong slowly climbed the steps. With each step, a layer of golden mist would cover his figure. As he stepped on the last stair, the 36th one, his entire figure was shrouded in golden mist. Clearly outlining his figure became impossible even for Queen. All the people of Chaos could see a mass of golden mist. Even the two weapons in his hand were completely hidden under the golden mist.
Finally, Ling Xiaolong stepped on top of the Lotus of Chaos.
Rumble~
The moment he stepped on the Lotus of Chaos, a thundering noise shook the Chaos. At the same time, the Golden Petals of the Lotus started closing.
As he arrived at the center of the Lotus of Chaos, he sat down cross-legged. Seated cross-legged at the center of the Lotus of Chaos, Ling Xiaolong witnessed as the entire structure closed tightly around him. With its closure, the once radiant golden glow of the Lotus of Chaos dulled and faded away.
There was no longer any Abyssal in Chaos. Every Abyssal was surprisingly wiped out. Other than the colossal crack spanning almost one-third of the void of Chaos, no extra crack could be found. Every crack was forcefully closed.
As for the colossal crack, it was sealed shut by 36 runic Golden Chains, each stemming from a combination of 36 Supreme Chaos Rules.
If Ling Xiaolong wanted, he could have easily closed this crack as well, however, he did not do so. There seems to be something in his mind. It was all for a major action he planned to take after emerging from the Lotus in the future.
Now that the threat of Chaos\'s annihilation had passed, life resumed its normal course. Everything reverted to its previous state. The only noticeable change was the presence of a colossal, unopened Lotus of Chaos suspended beneath the center of the stitched void.
This Lotus of Chaos resembled more of a bud than a fully bloomed flower. 36 runic Golden Chains were anchored out of the base of the \'Lotus Bud\', sealing the cracks and restoring stability.
Time started passing slowly.
As time passed, the appearance of the giant Lotus of Chaos became a story and then a legend.
Just like that, three hundred thousand years passed.
.....
Three hundred thousand years later...
A giant bird-shaped Flying Ship could be seen near the Lotus of Chaos. This ship was filled with several warriors. Guarding the ship were dozens of powerful Masters of Chaos.
As they closed in, a ripple spread in the void. The ship had no choice but to stop.
It seems that the owner of the ship already expected this situation. Three Level 9 Masters of Chaos flew out of the ship, respectfully bowing in two directions, one north and the other south.
It turned out that two powerful warriors were sitting cross-legged in opposite directions not far from the humongous Lotus of Chaos. They seemed to be guardians of this Lotus, protecting it from any possible harm.
These two protectors were incredibly beautiful ladies. One was gentle and charming. Just looking at her could make people intoxicated. The other one was in red armor, her entire body an embodiment of a fierce killing intent. Her entire being was radiating such an intense killing intent that no one would dare go near her.
They were Queen and Bai Lushi.
Now that three hundred thousand years have passed, both of them have become Level 36 Masters of Chaos.
Queen\'s improvement was expected. After all, she was not an ordinary being.
As for Bai Lushi, she was already a Level 33 Master of Chaos three hundred thousand years ago. In the last three hundred thousand years, she leveled up three times, which can already be said to be an extremely fast speed. After all, it is a known fact that even leveling up from Level 1 to Level 2 might take a Master of Chaos more than a million years, let alone leveling up three times in a row in just three hundred thousand years.
"Seniors, we humbly seek your forgiveness for intruding upon your presence. The individuals aboard this ship are among the top 1000 competitors in the All-Chaos Competition. We have brought them here so that they could get enlightened. The organizers of the All-Chaos Competition already have your permission. Here is the permission token!"
As an old man spoke, he took a silver token. One side of the token was carved with a bloomed golden lotus while the other side of the token was carved with a closed golden lotus.
Queen and Bai Lushi appeared right in front of the three Masters of Chaos the moment one of them took out the Silver Token.
With a wave of her hand, Queen pulled the token out of the old man\'s hand.
"The Flying Ship would stay here. Bring everyone and remember to stay at the outer perimeter and not to get closer to the Lotus. Otherwise, no one would save the offender from my hands."
Bai Lushi\'s eyes gleamed with a fierce glint as she spoke.
The three Masters of Chaos trembled in fear. This was a subconscious action, and it was very normal. After all, the difference between them and Bai Lushi was sky apart.
"We understand!"
The old man spoke and returned to the ship with the other two Masters of Chaos. Some times later, more than a thousand warriors flew out of the ship. Dozens of Masters of Chaos were leading a total of one thousand warriors.
When everyone arrived in front of the two gorgeous beauties, Queen waved her hand.
Hundreds of thick vines appeared out of nowhere in the void and started to overlap each other. From afar, they seemed like countless worms squirming. They intertwined with each other and formed a huge platform.
After that, Queen looked at the thousand warriors and said, "Everyone is only allowed to stay on the platform. Do not dare to take a step out of the platform, otherwise, you\'ll have to bear the consequences."
She stopped for a few seconds, turned to look at the Lotus of Chaos, and said, "You all must have heard about the appearance of the Lotus of Chaos from your elders, parents, friends, or someone else. At that time, a war occurred between several powerful forces of Chaos. They all wanted to monopolize this Lotus of Chaos for their own benefits."
"Why?"
"It is because of the miraculous effects of this Lotus of Chaos. The closer you get to the Lotus of Chaos, the more quickly you can comprehend the Rules of Chaos and their Profound Meanings. However, getting closer to the Lotus of Chaos also depends on an individual\'s strength. If warriors, who are not Masters of Chaos, dare to pass the outer perimeter and step into the inner perimeter, they would be destroyed by the power of rules radiating from the Lotus. As for Masters of Chaos, they can only stay in the Inner Perimeter, they cannot enter the central perimeter. Even Level 36 Masters of Chaos can do that. It is because the closer one gets to the Lotus of Chaos, the more chaotic and violent the power of rules becomes."
"When the war was initiated to control the Lotus of Chaos 300,000 years ago, we appeared and repelled all the forces. We even killed Level 35 and Level 36 Masters of Chaos who were also the highest authority of Hall of Sin and Tower of Wisdom, thus ending the war. So, I guarantee no one would come to save you from us if any of you dares to defy my words and step out of the wooden platform."
"I\'ll not take much of your time. You only have 100 years. When the period of 100 years is over, you\'ll have to withdraw from here."
Noises in low volume echoed in the void but soon vanished. Everyone nodded their heads and headed to the wooden platform created by Queen.
They raised their heads to look at the giant Lotus of Chaos in awe.
"Is this the legendary Lotus of Chaos?"
"I heard from my father that a Supreme God appeared to end the calamity that might have destroyed the Chaos three hundred thousand years ago. That Supreme God was the reason behind the appearance of the Lotus of Chaos. When all the Abyssals were killed, the darkness vanished, and the giant crack was sealed with those runic chains, he appeared and climbed to the top of the Lotus of Chaos. It was also then the Lotus of Chaos closed and transformed into a giant Lotus Bud which is now called the Bud of Chaos Lotus Bud."
"Yes, I\'ve also heard of this legend from my grandfather. He also told me that he thinks the Supreme God had the strength to easily heal this crack as well, however, he did not do so. My grandfather hypothesizes that the Supreme God is waiting for something. He doesn\'t know what it is, but he believes that one day, the colossal crack will be unsealed in one day in the future. At that time, the Lotus of Chaos will bloom once again. The Supreme God will come out and solve the crisis completely."
