King Of Chaos

Chapter 459 Ch 459: The Golden Card

Chapter 459 Ch 459: The Golden Card

Ling Xiaolong witnessed the Human Emperor's remarkable feats firsthand. He observed as the Human Emperor defeated and killed the Red Flame Asura Emperor, the strongest warrior of the Three-headed Flaming Asura Race, and subsequently subdued the entire race with his overwhelming strength. Under his leadership, the Three-headed Flaming Asuras willingly submitted to him.

Following this triumph, the Human Emperor convened numerous region-wise conferences, where he generously shared his profound knowledge of cultivation and offered guidance to all humans. Within a mere thousand years, the Human Race in that land flourished with the emergence of several powerful warriors.

As time passed, and the Human Race prospered with the appearance of several Masters of Chaos, the Human Emperor set his sights on liberating other lands from the grip of slavery.

Long Chen, now Ling Xiaolong, was very impressed by the Human Emperor. So he also started doing the same. He followed the Human Emperor's path to guide people and help in the rise of the Human Race.

Of course, it was not initiated by Ling Xiaolong, this is how everything was supposed to happen.

During the period of tens of thousands of years, Long Chen made several trusted friends who could put their lives on the line to fight for him. They all became the pillars of the Human Race.

Human Emperor was indeed the number one person in the Human Race, but Long Chen was not far behind. He was number second.

Then one day, a time came when no race dared to look down on Humans ever again. Peace spread but did not last for long.

It is because Abyssals, creatures who claimed to be from a place called Abyss, launched invasions across multiple lands within Chaos. Their onslaught resulted in widespread massacres of the populace. Notably, they exhibited a chilling impartiality, sparing no one in their path. Any creature, regardless of race or affiliation, met a grim fate when encountered by the Abyssals—they were swiftly and mercilessly put to death.

The Human Emperor led an army consisting of several races to fight against Abyssals. Long Chen did the same.

The battle raged on for several hundred years. Eventually, Long Chen returned to his homeland, the Land of Eternal Behemoth, only to find it nearly obliterated and firmly under the control of numerous powerful Abyssals.

Long Chen was not even at Level 30. He was only a Level 27 Master of Chaos. However, the strength a Master of Chaos at Level 27 possesses could not be imagined by a Master of Chaos at Level 20. The difference is simply too vast.

Despite being at Level 27, Long Chen met his demise in this devastated land. However, before his death, he mustered his remaining strength to unleash a formidable display. He shattered a vast expanse of land, severing it from the mainland, and imprisoned all the Abyssals within this sealed region.

He also used the power of mysterious runes he had comprehended from the Tower of Wisdom to isolate the sealed land from the mainland.

Since Long Chen met his demise here, the illusion ended and Ling Xiaolong found himself standing under a huge statue. This was the statue of Long Chen.

Previously, there was nothing special about this statue other than its giant size. However, now that Ling Xiaolong looked at it again, he found a golden card floating in front of the statue's face.

"Was experiencing key phases of Long Chen's life the trial?" Ling Xiaolong couldn't help but frown, feeling slightly confused.

He had assumed that the trial would involve life-threatening situations, so this revelation left him puzzled.

Shaking his head, Ling Xiaolong flew in the air and grabbed the golden card.

The instant he grabbed the golden card, it melted and flowed into his body through his pores. It was also then a lot of information appeared in Ling Xiaolong's mind.

During the trial, Ling Xiaolong, as Long Chen, had comprehended several paintings from several floors of the Tower of Wisdom. However, they were Long Chen's comprehension so Ling Xiaolong did not gain anything.

This golden card gave Ling Xiaolong the key to comprehending those paintings.

It turned out that Long Chen had indeed given out his everything. This Golden Card was actually the key to the topmost floor of the Tower of Wisdom where not only Long Chen had left behind his inheritance, but the source of the Tower of Wisdom was also located there.

Only the true owner of the Tower of Wisdom could visit the 100th floor, and that is with the help of this Golden Card.

In other words, as long as Ling Xiaolong goes to the Tower of Wisdom, he can enter the 100th floor and refine the Source of the Tower, making the tower his.

Because the profound paintings are a part of the tower itself, the speed at which he would comprehend the paintings will be extremely fast.

When Long Chen had obtained the Tower of Wisdom and unconsciously refined it with his blood, he was not aware of this truth. It was after the invasion of Abyssals that he learned about the Golden Card and the 100th floor.

By then, it was already too late. He did not have time to refine the Source of the Tower.

One noteworthy thing here is that refining the tower and refining the source of the tower are two different things.

Refining the tower means establishing a connection and mastery over most of its functions and capabilities.

However, refining the source of the tower means delving deeper, tapping into its fundamental power and essence, thereby gaining mastery over its most profound capabilities and secrets.

What are the most profound capabilities and secrets of the Tower of Wisdom?

Even Long Chen has no idea since he never refined the source of the tower.

Now, this opportunity had fallen into Ling Xiaolong's hands.

From the information that suddenly flooded his mind, Ling Xiaolong also understood that Long Chen was able to comprehend the paintings of only 53 floors.

In his words, the paintings in the tower up to 50 floors are about Rules of Chaos and all kinds of energies such as Chaos Energy, Celestial Energy, Origin Energy, as well as Spirit Energy and Demonic Energy.

As for the paintings above 50 floors, they were all about souls and soul force.

Long Chen had comprehended the paintings of floor numbers 51, 52, and 53. The paintings of these three floors alone had increased his soul force tremendously. He also understood several mysteries about souls that only the Spiritas Race understands.

Long Chen also had a guess that this tower was either naturally formed or the creator of this tower must be from the Spiritas Race.

No matter the situation, it is very likely that the first owner of the Tower of Wisdom was Spiritas.

According to Long Chen, as long as someone understands the profound meanings hidden in all the paintings, their soul will transcend the limit of Chaos and evolve to an entirely new height. This transcendent soul could empower a warrior to surpass their physical limitations and ascend beyond the Level 36 threshold of Master of Chaos.

"So, even Long Chen believes that the Tower of Wisdom houses the method to step past Level 36 and become the King of Chaos!"

Ling Xiaolong muttered in deep thought.

Long Chen was the owner of the tower, so his understanding of the tower was different from the rumors outside.

Now that Ling Xiaolong learned that even Long Chen believed this, then it is very likely to be the truth.

"I'll go to the Tower of Wisdom after dealing with that threatening presence here. Besides, I already have deep enmity with the Masters of Chaos from Tower of Wisdom. When I go there, I'll be killing two birds with one stone."

Ling Xiaolong muttered and then focused on finding the Black Eye.

The Black Eye was lost somewhere in this ruin. He has to find it no matter what.

However, Ling Xiaolong was in no rush. He allowed the Rules of Chaos to gradually envelop the entire ancient ruin.

Thanks to Long Chen, the Rules of Chaos had vanished entirely from this devastated land. Now that they were resurfacing, he could utilize these rules to effortlessly pinpoint the Black Eye.

After all, he could now completely manipulate every aspect of Rules of Chaos.

However, the restoration of the Rules was a gradual process. This waiting lasted for five full days.

"It is finally the time!"

Ling Xiaolong muttered and immediately used the Rules of Chaos in his surroundings to look for the Black Eye.

Because of his complete understanding of all 108 Rules, now 36 Supreme Rules of his personal chaos, every place shadowed by Rules of Chaos will be within his sight.

He soon located the Black Eye.

"Teleportation!"

In the next instant, Ling Xiaolong appeared in a deep crater filled with foul energy. There, a Black Eye could be seen covered in dust and dirt.

Ling Xiaolong picked up the Black Eye and muttered, "Time to open the Gate!"
