A Territory! And of the Chaos Elent! William was ecstatic.
While he hadn't used the Chaos Elent much, he had to admit that it was incredibly strong in battle. Having fought the Elent during his upgrades, William was learning a lot about how he should be using the Elent.
If I find a Cultivator that takes pride in his Elents, I can turn it against him in an instant! I can only imagine how surprised Supre Left would have been if his own Fire Elent burned him!
William looked at his age, which was only 364 years out of the total 1200 years of lifespan. Given that the previous upgrade only took nine years of his life, William assud the final upgrade wouldn't be so dangerous, right?
Either way he would have to upgrade it eventually, and raising the Seal Elent to X-Rank beforehand might be suicide.
If I can Ascend these Elents too... No, I'll think about that later.
William didn't wait for his Elents to recover, since he didn't want to waste ti standing still. He would have liked to test out the Chaos Territory, but waiting over a day just to do so was boring, to say the least.
System, it's ti for the X-Rank Chaos upgrade.
-500000 PP
Ouch, that hurt. William winced as half a million Potential Points were lost in one go.
The System upgrade started imdiately, and a surprised Chaos figure returned barely monts after dissipating. Its confusion was quickly replaced by anger when it noticed that the person responsible for its appearance was once again the insufferable William.
"Цშ ᰄʄ П𖼜ЯT𐋐𖼜ЯƝ! TЯѠΛ𐋐 T𐋐Ⳝᔕ ΣშშꝒ Ѡ ꝒЯᔕᔕშƝ!"
William was too focused on the Elents rampaging inside his body to read the Chaos figure's lips, but he could imagine it had ordered the Elents to attack. He did his best to guard against the consecutive Chaos Spells, tilting left and right to avoid taking any direct hits.
The Plant Elent sent a thick vine to wrap around his left leg, while the Earth Elent reinforced the vine to make it unbreakable in a short ti. Ice joined in, covering the Earth with a secondary layer while the Wind Elent channeled all its energy into pulling the vine towards William's right side.
The combined efforts of all four Domains focused into a single Spell allowed the Elents to finally pull William's leg out from under him, forcing him to fall to the ground. What more, the short fall was enough to rip open three layers of space, forcing Tribulation Clouds to appear overhead once more.
The System went silent once again, doing its best to obscure William's situation to the beings above. It sent William the necessary notifications, then disappeared from his mind temporarily. It was already too late to stop others from seeing the upgrade, but it could at least hide the Chaos figure.
Golden Girl, who was trimming her nails while riding a cloud, looked downward while her eyes glowed, peering through the Myriad Realms and landing on a familiar boy that she thought had already Ascended.
"I sent the portal down to him, what the hell? Am I rembering things wrong?" Golden Girl muttered as she twirled her fingers. The sa Superior Tribulation ford as before, but for so reason it wouldn't attack at all.
"That's not right..." she took a closer look at William's situation, finding that all of his Elents had gone rampant and were attacking him wantonly. The scene was much hazier than normal, but she could tell that William was... fighting himself? Chapter Read:
"Hahaha! This kid is funny!" Golden Girl wiped a tear from her eye when she saw William being dragged backwards across the ground by an Earth and Ice-reinforced vine.
She kept the Superior Tribulation running so she could watch but controlled it to gather its energy slowly. Only this thod would allow her to watch this hilarious scene without interruption, as per the Realmic Rules.
Her laugher only intensified as William's body was quickly raised upwards by a pillar of Earth from underneath, then dropped from a height of five kiloters straight into a pit that went well past the vision of the Tribulation Clouds.
A plu of lava sent William floating upwards, having co from the World's mantle itself. While it didn't have an imdiate and lasting effect on William's body, it served its purpose to disorient William, making him want to throw up from the constant upward-downward movents.
"I have knockback immunity, what the fuck!" William cried out just in ti for a stream of lava to enter his mouth and nose. He coughed up the lava, but hardly managed to take a breath before he was drowned in a sea of Ice-turned water.
If the System were here, it would have calmly noted that he wasn't being pushed or knocked back, rather pulled in. They were two different types of movent, and he only had resistance to one of them.
-The Heavens are entertained: 1 Attention
Hours passed in the sa scenario, the red Tribulation Clouds striking him with Lightning from ti to ti while Golden Girl wheezed. Her face hurt from smiling so much, and she couldn't rember the last ti she had laughed so hard.
Probably not since Aegion's Birthday party. she thought.
"I don't know who would win, this William or brother Aegion? I wonder what brother would think if he t this person?" she muttered to herself as the final Tribulation Bolt landed, causing no damage despite William's already wounded body.
"Well, considering his current situation, I'm sure I'll find out soon enough." she smiled as her eyes returned to their usual form.
On William's end, he looked at the Chaos figure seriously. His body was covered in minor wounds that the Recovery Talent was healing one at a ti, while the Chaos figure was returning William's solemn stare.
It had failed to attract the attention of the Heavens to dispose of this person, and his body was too strong for it to cause any serious damage, even with its Territory actively suppressing him. The Chaos Elent gritted its teeth, calling upon the one Elent it despised the most.
William suddenly felt weird, as if he was undergoing the Hard Body Talent rging again. His own figure seed to reject him, trying to separate his Soul, Body, and Mana respectively. The feeling was very faint, but it was enough for William's forehead to fill with beads of sweat.
He used his Soul Strength to pull his Soul back towards his body, fighting against so unknown Mana that was calm in the most dangerous type of way. Emotions overwheld William's entire being, describing the nature of William's unknown opponent word by word.
"Refined. Noble. Elegant."
"Sequence. Structure. Series."
"Harmony. Containnt. Peace."
"Law. Discipline. Calm. Control."
"Ritual. Ceremony. Sacrant. Service."
The words sped up and multiplied. Tens of tis, hundreds of tis. Thousands of tis.
They rang out in his head, clouding his mind and distracting his thoughts. Separating what was real and fake like the Illusion Elent, but also separating what was the past, present, and future like the Ti Elent.
"Class. Level. Rank. Grade. Position. Arbitration.
Judgent. Decision."
...
"Order." William and the Chaos figure said out loud in unison.
