Chapter 698: Chapter 553: Dire Battlefield Situation

Why did Bal come over?

"How did he get here?" Liu Jun, who had just returned from a leisurely diving trip, thought for a moment and found the answer.

He probably followed the trail left by the Oasis.

Previously, Liu Jun thought Bal was an ordinary tenth level.

Even all the strong ones over at the Oasis were ordinary tenth level, unable to walk in the void...

So there was no deliberate hiding of the path.

Who knew that Bal could actually rebuild his foundation from an ordinary tenth level to a supreme tenth level, chasing all the way here?

"The Butterfly Effect."

"I caused a change in history."

"If I hadn’t gone to find Xibo, they might have all been trapped in the Oasis in the future."

This was Liu Jun’s original plan.

He had moved his hometown’s cosmos, the era of the Twelve Constellations and the Twelve Zodiac was taken for a dive by him.

It was quite good to have those gods locked up in the Oasis prison!

That way they wouldn’t bother him daily, so Liu Jun really didn’t want to pay them any mind and let them be.

"According to historical progress, it was that Black Sword Empress ascending the throne, taking her son, for the first time stepping onto the soil of the Oasis... searching for her stepfather and her new husband."

Liu Jun mused.

At that time, the God of Chaos Bal, and other gods, probably wouldn’t be a match for this Black Sword.

Because Bal could only rise in the vast and grand Sea of Chaos.

On the original historical path, Bal shouldn’t have been able to rise, and the special Black Sword Empress aware of Bal might have targeted him...

There was that drama of snatching a husband and beating Bal, Xibo, and Magaras in a joint effort.

The Black Sword Empress, a mortal engaging in a great battle with gods in the Oasis.

But now...

"History has taken another path, and Bal has risen."

Liu Jun didn’t know if this was good or bad.

And what puzzled Liu Jun was:

Why was Bal looking for him?

Now everyone was wild, free, in the vast cosmos, with so many lakes and streams, why not find a pit and dive?

The map is so big, why seek me?

However, feeling Bal’s overwhelming fierce battle intent, Liu Jun suddenly had an unspeakable thought: "Isn’t it like other mythological protagonists, coming to fight me?"

That astonishingly fierce battle intent, carrying an air of finality, made Liu Jun feel that this guess could very well be true.

This guy wants to fight!

Why does everyone want to fight me?

But thinking on the brighter side, he might not want to fight God?

Perhaps he just wants the remarkable and omniscient God to resolve his current headache problem?

Beside him.

The group of divers, including Haimisa, was still frantically discussing, each with a look of despair.

"It’s over, if we had known earlier, we wouldn’t have taken this job to dive in the Five-kilometer Central City!"

"Yes, if we were still in the 500-meter district, enjoying leisure, how would we encounter such an outrageous matter?"

"Exactly, exactly!"

"Yes, if we hadn’t come out diving, even if we stayed in the Central District, now that a battle has erupted, we wouldn’t be unable to return to the city!"

"Isn’t that right? If we were still in the city, we’d be watching this fight like a drama!"

After saying this, they glared at their client Liu Jun with some frustration, blaming him a little.

Seeing the crowd’s continuous arguing and directing their frustration at the client, Haimisa, out of professional ethics, quickly scolded, "Stop arguing, this is just bad luck, don’t blame anyone!"

"Now, we should first think about how to survive."

They discussed among themselves and decided to slowly land on the nearby land as planned, huddled on this edge of the Heaven-Opening continent, right next to the chaotic coastline.

Upon landing, they quickly checked their gear, and then sat down to configure their attributes using their Divine Object, creating a large amount of Heaven-Opening Divine Power, to inflate their empty oxygen tanks.

"Hurry, quickly make more Heaven-Opening Divine Power!"

"A bit more gas means a bit more life, maybe we can still retreat into the Sea of Chaos to take refuge later!"

They were extremely anxious, watching the distant battle.

...

On the other side.

Bal felt unusually conflicted.

A strong desire for combat, a desire to destroy, driving him to seek out a figure hidden deep within his heart.

He wanted to challenge God, a fixation formed unknowingly in his heart.

Or perhaps, it was the figure everyone living under the shadow of the God Myth ruling era couldn’t avoid.

And reason, too, drove him to seek God.

He believed God could find a solution to his current anomaly.

He clearly understood that by rising now and leaving the Sea of Chaos... he could gradually regain reason.

But that intense excitement and invincible feeling made him addicted, incredibly fascinated, and instinctively not wanting to leave the chaos.

Thus.

Desire made him want to find God for a fight.

Reason made him want to find God to solve the problem.

The two conflicting thoughts pulling and fighting, both pointed in the same direction.

Therefore, he came.

In the country of waves, Five-kilometer Central City.

Under the sky with continuous drizzles, the ground soaked, birds singing and flowers blooming, various life laws opening the heavens evolved into various primitive lives, forming the source of initial life.

At this time.

Their Central City had just settled on this beautiful, primitive, and wild continent.

On the city wall, Mu Li was clad in battle armor, exuding layers of sacred aura, as if possessing the great power of creation and destruction,

"It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a sight outside the city."

Mu Li smiled as he looked at the continent, "How many years has it been?"

"My lord, it’s been seventy million years since the last military exercise," answered a heavy-armored adjutant beside him.

"Living in the vast chaotic sea water is too monotonous."

Mu Li said softly, "It’s rare to have such a large-scale military war, which can recreate heaven and earth, to see this blooming land."

Once such a war breaks out, it becomes a rare beautiful scenery from the confines.

Even the city’s citizens and the powerful cheered at such a scene, the long-lost fresh air, the long-lost soil, the long-lost continent...

Making them remember their distant homeland, still existing in a universe.

After feeling a wave of nostalgia, Mu Li looked at the unbelievable solar being across from him, "Interesting... huh, is this being no longer a creature, but the source of chaos?"

Does chaos have a source?

Do the laws of all things have their own origins?

A group of scientists once hypothesized in the "Law Source Theory," expressing the view that the laws of all things have a source.

All the vast and vast chaotic oceans have a spring of sea water, the source of chaos!

Just as all tenth-level civilizations originate from the same source.

Back then, this paper was well-structured, logically rigorous, and with ample evidence, many believed in its profound implications.

Yet, as numerous historians conducted ancient verifications, diving deep into the sea in search of relics, they found no evidence.

Until today.

"Evidence, the source of chaos..."

There was no fear, no sorrow, no fear of facing death; in Mu Li’s eyes, there was only excitement—such emotions he hadn’t felt for innumerable ages.

"Interesting, truly interesting."

"This guy, claiming to be a... God? Now he indeed feels like the source of all chaotic sea water, like a fountain springing forth endlessly."

Mu Li laughed heartily, pointing to the distant Sun God exuding astonishing aura, unable to suppress his eyebrows,

"Everyone, commence action. Perhaps today, we will finally uncover the essence of the world we have searched for years in the chaotic sea water."

The soldiers displayed expressions of excitement.

Their eyes held no fear, no apprehension, only joy.

Like a diver searching for treasure all their life, suddenly seeing the ultimate treasure under the sea; how could they not be excited?

"Everyone, commence action."

"The other side survived our first Heaven-Opening attack, already not an ordinary life but a celestial phenomenon."

"Yes, similar to the will of heaven after Heaven Opening, the Celestial Will Race?"

"It does have that feeling."

"No matter, the Heaven-Opening attack is just opening a battlefield."

"If he is a Water God... then we have created a waterless environment, isolating him from the sea water... also weakening his power!"

As everyone discussed, Mu Li slowly spoke, "All armies, follow the order, continue with the continuous Heaven-Opening attack, expand the land, and open up a larger cosmos amidst the chaotic sea!"

The next moment.

The army’s barrage fell on Bal.

The sky-covering Heaven-Opening attack gradually descended, splitting the chaos and creating new land after new land.

A brand new world, mountains, plains, and grasslands gradually formed at Bal’s feet.

This chaotic Sun God, Bal, was momentarily torn from the chaotic sea water, naked standing atop a range of mountains.

"This is..."

Having left the chaos, Bal momentarily cleared, but the decline in strength made him eager to return to that powerful state as if walking on clouds.

"You all actually..."

Bal let out a fierce roar.

In an instant, the vast chaotic ocean behind him surged like a breached dam; the violent force surged onto the continent, returning everything to chaos.

All the front-line soldiers were bombarded by the majestic sea, like dense flies smashed against the city walls by giant waves.

All the soldiers spat blood, wounded all over, leaving impressions on the walls that couldn’t be removed.

"We can’t let this guy leave the chaos!" Mu Li finally shifted from initial excitement to horror, "Despite the abundance of Heaven-Opening Divine Power in the world we created, how can it withstand the endless chaotic sea water?"

The adjutant heavily stated, "As long as he roars, the chaotic sea water floods in, and we need to clear a venue, clear the chaotic sea water, one attack consumes unknown amounts of Mana!"

"Stop arguing, he seems to be looking over." High-level officials trembled in their voices, nervous, "He seems to be looking over."

"Open Heaven! Quick, Open Heaven!" Left with no choice, the soldiers, despite heavy injuries, stood strong, using various low-grade life series Divine Powers to recover.

"Quick, quick, quick! We’re going to die!"

"The city cannot fall!"

"A single person breaking the city, what in the world is this?"

"Quickly contact the civilians in the rear, summon them urgently, all civilians are soldiers, come quickly to defend the city and strengthen defenses!"

"Yes!"

"Also, God, check if there are similar names or forces in the city’s history and check."

"Yes!"

Crash, crash, crash.

Subsequently, countless soldiers began to resist with all their might, erupting with their fiercest powers amid roars.

The endless Heaven-Opening Divine Power, like a massive axe, cleaved through the chaos before them, instantly feeling the galaxy shatter, the world just opening, with primordial energy being born, and various laws blooming, a vast world reopened at the chaotic bottom.

The newly born world made the chaotic sea water appear like a magnificent transparent giant egg, its light refracting into the giant egg, giving a sense of a rainbow sky curtain’s beauty.

But this time.

Looking at the chaotic ocean outside the glass dome above, no one showed a hint of wonder at the stunning scenery but felt immense fear.

"Run away, quickly."

Seeing this, Haimisa was completely panicked, grabbing the oxygen tanks they had filled earlier nervously, and hurriedly jumped into the sea water.

After they jumped in, swam some distance, and started counting heads, they discovered a problem.

"Our client is gone?"
