A black, chaotic aura enveloped the valley like a curtain, instantly turning the elemental energy in the air into a violent and disordered frenzy. The golden light of the Origin of the Laws was forcibly suppressed, the newly sprouted buds of the World Tree began to wither, and the pale green life force receded like a tide. Loran looked up at the sky, his divine sense piercing through the thick clouds, clearly perceiving a spatial rift spanning the sky that was rapidly expanding. Deep purple chaotic energy flowed within the rift, and the pressure it contained far exceeded that of the previous chaotic remnant soul, even approaching the threshold of the God Lord Realm.
"They are 'divine messengers' from the Chaos Divine Faction!" The Treant Elder's voice was unusually solemn, his withered hands gripping the roots of the World Tree tightly. "After the War of the Gods, the Chaos Sovereign placed divine messengers in various planes. They are all powerful beings at the Half-Step God Lord level, responsible for carrying out the Sovereign's orders and devouring the Origin of the Laws of each plane!"
Loran's God King Divine Spark spun wildly within his body, golden law patterns covering his entire form, resisting the erosion of chaotic energy. " Half-Step God Lord? Perfect, I'll use you to test my newly broken-through God King power." He could feel the Origin of the Laws within his body resonating with the Laws of Life of the World Tree. Although he had only recently ascended to God King, under the nourishment of the Origin of the Laws, his divine power had already stabilized at the Mid-Level God King level, only one step away from the High-Level God King.
"Roar--!"
Lei Lin let out a high-pitched roar, and the lightning and fire around his body surged to a hundred meters high. Silver-purple Qilin intertwined to form a huge phantom of a Qilin. With each thud of his four hooves, pale blue electric patterns spread out again, merging with Loran's God King power to form an even larger Thunder Purification Domain. This time, the domain not only contained the Laws of Lightning and the Qilin's divine power, but also incorporated the Laws of Life of the World Tree, increasing its restraining effect on chaotic energy several times over.
A figure slowly descended from a spatial rift in the sky. He wore a black divine robe embroidered with twisted chaotic runes, and his face was shrouded in a layer of black mist, revealing only a pair of eyes radiating a scarlet light. In his hand he held a black scepter, the top of which was inlaid with a skull, its eyes burning with pale purple chaotic flames. He was none other than Morgan, the divine messenger of the Chaos Divine Faction.
Morgan hovered in mid-air, his crimson eyes sweeping over the crowd in the valley before finally settling on Loran. His voice was as grating as metal scraping against metal. "I never imagined that a new God King could be born in such a remote plane as the Kalon Continent. Loran, you escaped by chance three hundred years ago; today, I will make you and this Origin of the Laws return to chaos!"
Loran was shocked; the other party actually recognized him. He could sense that the chaotic energy within Morgan was extremely pure, more than a hundred times stronger than that of the Blood Bone Demon God, and had already touched the core of the laws of the God Lord Realm — the Laws of the Domain. The biggest difference between God Lord and God King is that God Lord can fuse multiple laws to form his own Laws of the Domain; within the Domain, the God Lord is the absolute Sovereign.
"It's time to settle scores from three hundred years ago." A murderous glint flashed in Loran's eyes as a silver-white Thunder Spatial Slash materialized in his palm. "But today, the one who will fall will be you!"
"Arrogant!" Morgan sneered, lightly tapping his skull scepter. Pale purple chaotic energy erupted instantly, transforming into a gigantic Claw of Chaos that lunged at Loran. Wherever the Claw of Chaos passed, space was completely torn apart, revealing a deep black void containing the Laws of Devouring and Edicts of Destruction, enough to instantly kill an ordinary God King.
