After bringing about the advent of the Era of [Chaos], the Soul Shrieker silently vanished.

[Chaos]s silent dissemination began all over the 900 million World Layers.

At another location.

Within a hidden space current.

The leader of the bandits was being gripped by his neck with an expression of fear on his face.

I utilized every means of defense I had, but I was still caught so easily.

He wanted to struggle, but couldnt muster any courage to even move.

He could feel just how strong that hand gripping him was.

Im very sorry, brother, I was wrong, please give me another chance, I swear I will leave right away

The bandit leader spoke up right away, trying to plead.

This time, Boss ignored him.

While gripping his neck with one hand, Boss touched the void of space with his other hand.

His thick book once again manifested.

Putting his hand on the book, Boss muttered: Who is currently under my rule?

The book then opened and began to flip through by itself, showing depictions of various terrifying and horrible monsters.

Tsk, my power is a bit lacking right now lets use a relatively loyal one

Come, I choose you

Saying so, Boss touched the depiction of a monster in the book.

It was a humanoid monster whose body was filled with mouths.

It didnt have eyes, a nose, ears, but there were mouths on its head, its limbs, its torso, everywhere around its body.

When Boss touched it, it respectfully bowed down in front of him.

Go eat

Boss declared.

Following his statement, the void of space outside [The Empress] ship started to surge and boil.

That monster showed up.

Its body was as big as an entire airship, which swiftly charged straight into the group of bandits.

-wherever the monster passed by, the bandits vanished.

A chilling sound of crunching and chewing resounded throughout the void of space.

A few of the mouths on the monsters body were closed, the blood flowing from inside started soaking its body red.

The monster didnt stop and continued its charge into the fleet of bandit airships.

Against this monster, the bandit ships that were trying to rob [The Empress] were completely erased and vanished from existence.

After it was done, the monster flew back and respectfully bowed to Boss.

Wait there Boss told the monster.

The monster then took a few steps back and silently waited.

Boss then leaned next to the bandit leaders ear and lightly asked him: Now, who did you think was a piece of garbage?

The bandit leader was already scared stiff and wanted to answer him right away, but Boss simply threw him out.

As the bandit leader flew outside [The Empress], he was caught by the understanding monster.

He was erased as well.

The sound of chewing and crunching continued to resound from the monsters body.

Gu Qing Shans group of three silently watched this.

-Boss seemed to have summoned something terrifying.

This monster managed to destroy an entire fleet in no time at all.

You may return Boss said.

The monster faithfully bowed towards Boss, kept its head down, and slowly retreated.

Its body slowly faded away into the void.

Gu Qing Shan couldnt help but asked: Your wounds havent fully healed yet, wouldnt using this type of super-distance summoning put a lot of burden on you?

Boss scoffed: This type of magic is nothing but a minor trick, its nothing to worry about at all

As soon as he answered, his body started to fall back and collapsed on the deck of the ship.

Gu Qing Shans trio went up to see him.

Boss had closed his eyes and was snoring loudly.

Gu Qing Shan took a careful look and sighed: He used up too much power at once, hell probably sleep for a while longer

Zhang Ying Hao and Ye Fei Li exchanged glances.

What a braggart, using such a powerful summoning technique to attack Zhang Ying Hao commented.

Thats right, we wouldnt have lost even if we did things slowly Ye Fei Li added.

Zhang Ying Hao went silent for a bit, then said: Im very curious about his background

What are you worried about? Ye Fei Li asked.

From what he said, he was fighting against the Soul Shrieker which means that he must be an extremely impressive VIP

Make sense

Ive been in the 900 million World Layers for quite a while, but Ive never heard that such a person exists in the 900 million World Layers at all Zhang Ying Hao frowned.

Hm, thats an issue Ye Fei Li mused.

Gu Qing Shan told them: Asking too much is no good. Since hes on our side right now, theres no need to pry too deeply

Were going to ignore him? Allowing an unknown factor to exist without any care so close to you, this wasnt your style Zhang Ying Hao was a bit surprised.

He already made a Causality vow to not harm us, which means he isnt our enemy Gu Qing Shan emphasized this.

Zhang Ying Hao and Ye Fei Li thought for a bit and nodded.

Gu Qing Shan continued: And he was also recognized by an Occultism artifact as my mutual saviour, so I believe that he can be considered an ally

So, we dont need to understand him too deeply? Zhang Ying Hao asked.

Gu Qing Shan shook his head: Everyone has a past they dont want to talk about, not asking him about it is a way for us to show our respect. If one day hes willing to tell us, well naturally find out

Thinking of something, Ye Fei Li rubbed his chin: Perhaps, even if we dont ask, hed tell us about it himself one day

Yup, thats exactly it

Half an hour later.

The ship was still moving forward.

The void around them was dim and unremarkable.

Boss slowly opened his eyes, still lying flat on the deck of the ship.

He was awake.

As he sat up from the floor, he seemed a bit embarrassed: Sorry about that, I accidentally used up all my powers again, please give me a few cans of Soul Points drinks

Here Ye Fei Li tossed one over.

Boss received and emptied it right away.

Ah, no good, I cant fight again, I need some time to rest up he sighed emotionally.

No problem, just leave the rest to us Ye Fei Li said.

Thats right, weve already eliminated a group of bandits, most likely no one would try anything against us again Gu Qing Shan commented.

As soon as he said so.

Bam!

A loud sound of impact.

The ship trembled a bit.

Everyone turned to Gu Qing Shan.

He also said the same thing last time

Ye Fei Li cleared his throat and spoke up: Gu Qing Shan

Gu Qing Shan raised both hands: Stop, I know. Next time I wont say anything like that again

Lauras voice sounded from inside the deck of the ship:

Gu Qing Shan, were under attack

The four people on the deck of the ship looked towards the faraway space vortex.

A fleet of 10 ships was headed towards them.

Are there any chances that we happened to block their way? Gu Qing Shan asked.

Let me try steering away Laura replied.

[The Empress] adjusted its direction and started to veer off of its original course.

But the fleet of ships on the other side also changed their directions and continued heading towards [The Empress].

This position is very familiar Ye Fei Li crossed his arms.

Thats right, were about to be surrounded again Zhang Ying Hao commented.

Perhaps to prevent Gu Qing Shans group from fleeing, the 10 ships scattered and skillfully maneuvered to surround [The Empress]

Gu Qing Shan, my ship is really impressive in more ways than one, should I just charge through them? Laura asked.

They would just pursue us if we do that, lets just deal with the issue right here Gu Qing Shan replied.

A few people emerged from the flagship of the opposing fleet and hovered in front of [The Empress].

A bulky man that carried a large battle axe on his shoulder stepped out, walked in front of the ship, and looked down on Gu Qing Shans group of four.

Which one of you is the Boss?

The bulky man shouted.

Gu Qing Shan, Zhang Ying Hao, and Ye Fei Li all couldnt help but look towards Boss.

Sitting on the deck of the ship, still exhausted, Boss sighed and muttered: I suddenly want to change my name now

Its ok, leave it to us this time saying so, Gu Qing Shan was about to fly up.

Zhang Ying Hao stopped him: Let me try to negotiate first

He tossed a coin towards the man and said: Im a member of the Assassin Alliance

The man caught the coin and carefully checked it, then displayed a hesitant expression.

Gu Qing Shan asked in a low voice: Is this alliances name that useful?

Zhang Ying Hao replied in a low voice: Hm, the Assassin Alliance is an underground organization a killer organization. Most forces would give us some respect

Is that so

Gu Qing Shan thought briefly, then took out his Hitman Guild medal.

Oi, theres a member of the Hitman Guild here as well

He pointed at himself.

The man received the medal and checked, only to find that it was also genuine.

An assassin.

A hitman.

In other words, the two people in front of him are two members of the underground world, most likely not here for any business related to wealth.

The only business killers deal with is killing people.

-could it be, everyone on this ship are killers?

Then I have to report to Boss about this.

The man brought the coin and the medal back to his group.

They discussed this.

After just a bit, these people turned back and faced [The Empress].

The man flew back and showed a malicious smile.

Sorry, but life has been hard recently. Even a killer will have to leave this ship and everything you own if you want to survive

He told Gu Qing Shans group.

Seeing his expression, Gu Qing Shans group quickly discussed with each other.

Theyre probably looking to kill us after we give them everything Gu Qing Shan commented.

Those guys are really at the end of their ropes Zhang Ying Hao sighed.

They soon wont be Ye Fei Li replied.

Erm I still need to rest Boss insisted on chiming in.

The three of us will be enough, you can rest Gu Qing Shan replied.

Gu Qing Shan, Zhang Ying Hao, and Ye Fei Li all got ready for battle.

However, the people on the other side all showed unfocused expressions on their faces at the same time.

They stood still in the void, not saying anything, and simply stared forward, as if there was something that drew their attention.

Whats going on? Ye Fei Li couldnt help but ask.

Something seems amiss Zhang Ying Hao squinted his eyes.

Gu Qing Shan grabbed the Earth sword from the void of space.

At the same time, his other three swords also manifested behind him.

For some reason, the scene gave him a very familiar feeling.

At another location, the Soul Shrieker was quickly moving across the space vortex.

All of a sudden, countless voices resounded by its ear.

The Era had arrived

[Chaos] spread

Youve completed

The Path to Godhood of [Chaos], is yours

The Soul Shrieker abruptly stopped, the endless presence of [Chaos] traveled through the void and gathered towards it as strands and threads from all directions.

These strands of [Chaos] were being absorbed by the Soul Shrieker one after another.

Aaaaaaa!

The Soul Shrieker looked straight up and screamed.

Power! The boundless power of [Chaos]!

Its male voice excitedly screamed.

Its female voice also laughed: Ahahaha, if I had obtained this power just half an hour earlier, I wouldnt have been stuck at the border of the Mystic Zones, or forced to be stalled in place by those attacks!

The strands of [Chaos] were soon fully absorbed into its body.

The Soul Shrieker paused for a brief moment and sighed.

Everything is no longer the same

Both its male and female voice spoke up at once, speaking in a chanting tone: So this is the true path to Godhood- I have finally reached this step. From now on, I will climb to the peak of [Chaos] step by step, escape from the control of the Abyss, and no longer have to fear any Apocalypse!

It suddenly stopped and displayed a focused expression, as if carefully listening to something.

-the countless whispers were resounding by its ears,

Your path to Godhood has been granted

Your power has been improved several times; it is enough

You are [Chaos]

But [Order] still exists

Do not allow it

Suddenly, all the voices raised all the way up and shouted in thunderous fury: Eliminate the final [Order] immediately! No power can stop you now!
