Clearly, the Nightmare King had not been completely annihilated; it was estimated that Nightmare’s Will had taken a part of Its soul back to the Nightmare Main World to avoid falling.
A top combat force such as this was rare, even in the Nightmare Main World, and was certain to receive special treatment.
Yet in such a short period of time, It had fully recovered to peak condition and returned to kill again.
Judging by the uncontainable wrath It displayed, there was no doubt It had come for Lin Xiao’s revenge.
It lingered in the Chaotic Void for a moment before raising Its foot and stepping into the black hole, disappearing from sight.
The black hole continued to move rapidly through the Chaos Sea of Void, ceaselessly consuming the Chaos Energy within.
Chaos Creatures living within the Chaos Sea of Void sensed the gravity of the black hole and kept their distance.
...
As time imperceptibly passed by, the magnitude of the black hole’s gravitational field halted abruptly for a moment.
Following that, the ancient and unchanging gravity at the entrance to this Chaos Territory suddenly became disturbed; a more powerful gravitational field was starting to influence this vast black hole.
In the Chaotic Void millions of kilometers away, a Chaos maelstrom stretching hundreds of thousands of kilometers was slowly moving through the Void.
An enormous shadowy figure, barely visible within the storm of chaotic energies and constantly struck by infinite Chaos Lightning Rings, loomed within.
If anyone familiar were present, they would recognize the massive creature, nearly ten thousand kilometers in length with several heads, as the Chaos Origin Turtle—a fearsome monster in the Chaos Sea of Void, indomitable even by Powerful Divine Power.
The Chaos Origin Turtle, engulfed by a maelstrom tens of thousands of kilometers wide, drifted aimlessly through the Chaos.
When it came within only tens of millions of kilometers of the black hole at the Chaos Territory boundary, streams of Chaos Energy drawn by gravity towards the black hole enveloped the area.
The Chaos Origin Turtle let out a stifled roar, and the affected Chaos Energy, restrained by a mysterious force, stopped being pulled away.
However, at a certain moment, another gravitational force appeared out of thin air in this Void.
The Chaos Origin Turtle, which had been lazily floating in the Void Sea, suddenly opened its eyes.
Its numerous massive heads snapped to look in one direction.
In its pupils, shining like the sun, a trace of fear was apparent.
Four colossal limbs, resembling mighty pillars, emerged from its body, which was like a continent, and rapidly moved in a specific direction.
After an unknown interval, an incredibly strong gravitational force emerged in the area.
The Chaos Energy in the Void was attracted by this force, and the Chaos Energy dragged by the Chaos Origin Turtle was violently torn away, revealing the turtle’s horrific figure as it struggled to escape into the distance.
Again, after an unknown duration, the energy in the Void was depleted, revealing a clearly visible Void, and space and time began to twist visibly.
A glance revealed that billions of kilometers of the Void had been distorted by an indescribable force, warping even the sight lines, only vague twisted regions could be seen as if an invisible force had wiped away part of the world.
“Finally, I’ve found you, my insignificant kin!”
A wave that was inexplicable and soul-stirring like a sigh swept through; the massive distortion vanished suddenly, along with the black hole that had formed the entrance to the Chaos Territory.
In the Chaos Territory, a domain filled with endless scorching light.
As soon as Lin Xiao entered, he felt as if he had entered the sun itself, blindingly bright; the temperature in the Void shot up to an unimaginable degree, vaporizing his clothes in an instant.
But what surprised him most was that, despite these hundreds of thousands of degrees of infernal heat, there were living creatures surviving in this space.
These were lifeforms similar to ion life forms, blue ion-like humanoid creatures, or in other words, in Lightning form, deftly moving back and forth through the Void.
An ion life form, upon noticing Lin Xiao’s sudden appearance, observed him curiously from a distance for a few seconds before showing a dangerous expression and lunging toward him.
Mid-way, its body exploded into a net of blue Lightning that surged towards him.
Lin Xiao extended a finger to point, and at the instant of contact with the Lightning net, the tip of his finger burst open.
A speck of black emerged, exuding terrible suction, drawing in the vast expanse of blue Lightning into his fingertip, vanishing from sight.
“Uh!”
Lin Xiao couldn’t help but burp, as just that small ion life form contained energy comparable to swallowing a True God whole, and he choked for a moment unawares.
As a Chaos Creature, directly swallowing other powerful beings was also one way to increase one’s strength, which was one of the main reasons many Chaos Creatures liked to invade the Crystal Wall System to consume its inhabitants.
With the energy contained within a single ion life form comparable to swallowing a True God whole, Lin Xiao looked towards the searing space through which occasional streams of light passed with fervent eagerness in his eyes.
Soon, a frenzied killer appeared in the space, seeking out and consuming ion life forms everywhere, regardless of their strength; upon finding one, he would forcefully devour it.
This space was not very large, akin to the size of a small plane, and although there were many ion life forms, none were strong enough to oppose him, Lin Xiao consumed with great relish.
But whether it was due to the space’s own defense mechanisms or something else, at a certain moment, the speed of time within the space suddenly jumped wildly, with one second equating to several millions of seconds in the Chaos Sea of Void, equivalent to forty days passing in one second.
To put that in perspective, a single day here would correspond to nearly three to four million days, close to thirty years.
A mere mortal in this place could finish their entire life’s journey from birth to burial in less than four days.
Lin Xiao noticed the terrifying changes in time and immediately halted his pursuit of the Ion Life Form and chose to leave.
His lifespan was considerable, but even he couldn’t withstand such wastefulness.
The spatial structure here was equally complex, with the spaces between the partitioned domains overlapping in some peculiar way.
One could tear through space from anywhere to leave this place, and upon doing so, one could choose to enter up to dozens of different interconnected spaces.
Therefore, he didn’t need to run to the edge of this space to escape; he could flee from this space on the spot.
The prerequisite was that you had enough strength to tear apart the space; otherwise, you could only be trapped in one space waiting to die, or run to the edge of space to find a crack to escape through.
He quickly tore open space and randomly entered the nearest one.
Instantly, an extreme chill hit him in the face.
Lin Xiao paid no heed to the low temperatures and checked the flow of time first thing, relieving his breath.
The flow of time here was only about five to six hundredths of the normal rate, making it a good place to extend one’s life.
However, within a few seconds, the flow of time returned to normal speed.
Only then did he have the opportunity to look around; he was above a mountain range covered in thick ice and snow, with light snowflakes drifting down through the air, devoid of any life at a glance.

He casually spun around and beneath the thick layer of ice, he discovered some insect-like creatures in hibernation.
After circling this world, Lin Xiao tore open space again and entered another space.
Subsequently, he aimlessly wandered within this Chaos Territory, that had infinite partitioned domains, occasionally consuming powerful life existing in different spaces, from ordinary yet strange creatures to monsters as powerful as True Gods.
Occasionally, he would break into worlds ruled by terrible monsters comparable to Powerful Divine Power, but he always tore through space and left before those monsters could react.
Though not afraid, he avoided meaningless battles when he could.
Risking injury to struggle with one creature wasn’t worth it when he could easily consume a bunch of ordinary God Level monsters.
In the dangerous Chaos Territory, safety was paramount.
Luckily, although the Chaos Territory was very dangerous, teeming with powerful monsters and said to harbor terrifying existences on par with great divine power, the spaces within the Chaos Territory were so vast that it was very difficult to encounter them.
Coupled with his own strong strength, he had some close calls but no real danger for the time being.
Time passed slowly, and in this world of erratic time flow, Lin Xiao did not know how long it had been.
Anyway, he had experienced thousands of spaces and tens of thousands of years had passed for him.
This was still because his soul’s nature was connected to the Origin of Time, making the chaos of time affect him much less than others.
If someone else had experienced his thousands of worlds, they would have lost at least a few hundred thousand years.
Beings below the level of True God would have died due to the exhaustion of their lifespan.
One day, Lin Xiao tore open space once more, this time choosing the farthest space to enter.
The moment he entered, his skin felt as if pricked by countless needles, bringing Severe Pain, and a terrifying aura that made even his soul tremble hit him in the face.
He didn’t even take a look, his first instinct was to turn around and dive back into the original space.
The next second, the space behind him was torn open, and that terrifying will was on his tail.
Lin Xiao didn’t hesitate for a second, tearing open another space and diving in, with the terrifying aura that made his soul tremble continuing its pursuit.
“Fuck!”
No need to think about it, a mere glimpse was enough to make his soul shiver uncontrollably, this was undoubtedly a terrifying existence comparable to a great divine power.
Indeed, walking a lot at night one is bound to meet ghosts; after weaving through thousands of worlds, he had finally bumped into a super monster hidden in the Chaos Territory.
He didn’t even know what was chasing him, whether it was a Different Domain great divine power, a progenitor, a Chaos Creature, or a monster at the great level.
He didn’t dare to look back, fearing that the slight delay of a fraction of a second would result in being caught, for if he were caught, death was certain.
Luckily, the Chaos Territory was powerful enough that its fundamental rules had to be respected by all, even great divine power had to tear open space here to travel to other partitioned domains, which is why he had not been caught yet.
In other powerful worlds, such a great being could crash through directly, and even the Primary Material Plane would be forcibly opened, no space could withstand it.
But it was not a solution to keep fleeing like this; he had to come up with a way to shake it off, or he would certainly be caught in the end.
Lin Xiao contemplated the thousands of worlds he had passed through and quickly locked onto a few.
He tore with both hands again, and dozens of world coordinates appeared in front of him.
He immediately locked onto one and dived in, ignoring the earth-shattering roar that hit him as he headed straight for a vicious-looking head that emerged from the ocean, covering the entire world like an island.
