Infinite Survival: My 10,000x Return System
Chapter 54: [] Absolute Order, The Chaos Initiate
The exact moment Arthur’s glowing palm struck Kaelith’s chest, the universe simply ceased to exist!
Placing a Chaos-Tier Binder was nothing like tethering a mortal protagonist or the Celestial Queens. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
Primordial entities didn’t have standard souls. They were the living and breathing embodiments of conceptual laws!
To successfully bind her, Arthur had to temporarily merge his consciousness directly with hers.
For a single agonizing microsecond, Arthur’s mind was violently expanded. He was
forced to encompass the infinite and maddening scope of the entire Chaos Sea!
He felt the endless, gnawing hunger of the Outer Gods.
He felt the millions of years Kaelith had spent desperately weaving fragile realities only to watch them be ruthlessly devoured.
He felt the cold and crushing despair of her null-stone chains.
But more importantly... Kaelith felt him.
The Primordial Weaver gasped loudly!
Her blank white eyes flashed blindingly with a sudden and overwhelming influx of data.
She looked directly into Arthur’s soul and saw the filthy slums of the Mortal Domain.
She saw the violent and bloody execution of the Silverleaf King. She saw him casually crush the arrogant Celestial Emperor and forcefully collapse an entire multiverse into his own personal pocket dimension!
She had expected to find the fragile soul of a weak and terrified mortal.
Instead, she found an apex predator!
She found a man whose sheer unyielding ambition entirely dwarfed the mindless
hunger of the Outer Gods! He didn’t just survive chaos. He systematically weaponized it.
He was the concept of Order taken to its most violent and tyrannical extreme!
It was completely horrifying. And it was absolutely beautiful.
A fierce alien thrill suddenly rushed through Kaelith’s crystalline limbs. She had spent countless eons being hunted by mindless beasts.
But now? Now she was bound to a monster with a business plan!
[Ding!]
[System Update!]
[↳ Target Kaelith successfully Bound!]
[↳ Initiating System Feedback Loop...]
But before the system could fully engage the multiplier, the dark vacuum around them violently warped!
"CRACK!"
The space exactly ten feet behind Arthur literally tore wide open!
Stepping out from the jagged and bleeding rift were three colossal, nightmarish monstrosities.
They looked like massive, skinless hounds with entirely too many joints. Their horrific heads were nothing more than gaping maws lined with concentric rings of jagged, rusted teeth!
Outer God Hounds! The apex trackers of the Chaos Sea.
’Hostile entities!’ Kaelith frantically projected directly into Arthur’s mind. A massive wave of sheer alien panic hit his consciousness. ’They sensed the fluctuation of your Order Field! They are Harvester Scouts!’
"Stay behind me," Arthur commanded aloud.
He smoothly stepped back from the rock and confidently positioned himself between the chained Weaver and the incoming abominations.
"ROOOAAAR!"
The three hounds lunged simultaneously!
They moved with a jerky, stuttering motion that completely ignored the standard
laws of physics. They didn’t cross the physical distance. They simply deleted
the space between themselves and Arthur!
Arthur drew the Ebonheart Sword in a blindingly fast arc!
He instantly channeled the absolute peak of his Grand Sovereign power. He unleashed a massive, hyper-condensed wave of Celestial magic and abyssal energy aimed directly at the lead hound’s skull!
Sizzle.
The attack hit the hound’s exposed chest and instantly fizzled out!
The massive wave of world-ending energy simply dissolved into completely harmless sparks of light.
Arthur’s eyes widened in genuine shock. His magic didn’t work!
To the Outer God Hounds, his supreme Grand Sovereign aura was nothing more than a trick of the light. Bubble Realm magic simply could not rewrite the fundamental rules of the Primordial Chaos!
The lead hound’s horrific jaws snapped open. It aimed to bite Arthur entirely in
half!
He didn’t have time to dodge. He braced his Dimensional Breaker Physique for the
brutal impact and prepared to take the hit entirely on his raw physical durability.
But the hit never came.
"SHHHHNK!"
A massive, glowing wall of perfectly woven geometric starlight violently erupted from the ground!
It slammed directly into the hounds’ snouts! The pure kinetic force threw the massive beasts backward, and their bizarre bodies tumbled awkwardly through the dark void.
Arthur glanced over his shoulder.
Kaelith had forcefully thrown both her hands forward despite still being heavily chained to the null-rock.
Her six crystalline spider limbs were moving in a frenzied, impossible blur! She rapidly pulled raw, corrosive chaos directly from the environment and instantly converted it into a highly structured physical barrier.
She was actively defending her new Host!
And as she desperately wove the reality-enforcing shield, the dormant system in
Arthur’s mind finally caught the signal.
[Ding!]
[System Status Update!]
[↳ Bound Target Kaelith is actively utilizing Primordial Reality Weaving!]
[↳ 1,000,000x ROI Multiplier Activated!]
Arthur’s brain completely exploded!
It wasn’t just a simple transfer of mana. It was a direct and incredibly violent download of fundamental cosmic truth!
The system took Kaelith’s desperate, instinctual attempt to force Order upon the
Chaos and ruthlessly multiplied it by a million!
It forcefully shoved the absolute comprehension of reality manipulation directly into Arthur’s soul!
[CRITICAL WARNING!]
[↳ Host’s current Bubble Laws are deeply incompatible with Primordial
Mechanics.]
[↳ Initiating complete conceptual purge.]
[↳ Erasing Celestial Laws: Space, Time, Karma.]
"ARGH!" Arthur roared in absolute agony!
He dropped heavily to his knees as thick golden blood spilled uncontrollably from his lips.
The sheer pain was far worse than anything he had ever experienced in his multiple lifetimes. The system was literally ripping out the foundational magic that made him a God!
It was brutally tearing down a mansion just to forcefully build a cosmic skyscraper in its place!
’Hey!’ Kaelith screamed frantically in his mind.
Her glowing starlight shield began to heavily crack under the relentless, battering assault of the three recovering hounds.
[Ding!]
[Purge Complete!]
[↳ Synthesizing new Foundational Law: Absolute Order.]
[↳ Host has completely transcended the Bubble Realm scale.]
[↳ Level Up: Chaos Initiate.]
The agonizing pain vanished instantly.
Arthur Sterling stopped bleeding. He completely stopped shaking.
He slowly stood up to his full height and casually rolled his shoulders as a terrifying, dead silence fell over the entire area!
The violent cosmic storm around them actually seemed to freeze. It was visibly
terrified of the man standing on the floating asteroid!
He didn’t radiate a blinding divine light. He didn’t emit a suffocating spiritual pressure.
He just existed with a sheer, unyielding density that forcefully commanded reality to obey his every whim.
"CRASH!"
The three Outer God Hounds finally shattered Kaelith’s starlight shield and
immediately lunged forward for the bloody kill!
Arthur didn’t draw his sword. He didn’t cast a single spell.
He just looked calmly at the charging cosmic horrors. His pitch-black eyes suddenly glowed with terrifying geometric perfection.
He tapped into his newly forged law. He wasn’t manipulating mana anymore. He was
manipulating the fundamental code of the entire universe!
"Cease," Arthur commanded coldly.
It wasn’t a request. It was an absolute and utterly undeniable law.
SQUELCH!
The three massive hounds instantly froze completely mid-lunge!
Their horrific biology, which heavily relied on the chaotic absence of physics, was suddenly forced to obey standard, rigid gravity and mass!
Their corrupted bodies simply could not handle the sheer logic of his command.
The hounds violently collapsed in on themselves!
Their horrific flesh imploded under the immense pressure, crushing into neat,
perfectly spherical balls of dense dark matter before instantly dissolving into completely harmless ash!
Arthur let out a slow, deeply contented breath.
He casually adjusted the pristine cuffs of his dark coat. He slowly turned and looked back at Kaelith.
Her blind white eyes were incredibly wide with sheer, unadulterated awe.
"Now," Arthur said casually as he rested the heavy Ebonheart Sword on his shoulder. "Let’s get these chains off of you. We have a lot of work to do."
