Chapter 23 - The Hunter Of The Chaos Sea: Outer Gods

Earth Yin Star Headless Horseman: Chubu!

Underworld Fighter!

There are two types.

The first type is when the Underworld selects a person to become an Underworld fighter. It doesn't matter if they are suitable for the Underworld garment; as long as they inherit the power of the Underworld, they can qualify as an Underworld fighter. After all, strength, experience, and skills are all recorded in the Underworld garment, including a complete inheritance of fighting techniques. Under such circumstances, even someone as unlikely as a pig could become a fighter.

The second type is entirely different.

In the vast Chaos Sea, there is someone who perfectly matches this magic star. This individual becomes the most suitable ghost fighter for the Underworld garment; an exceptional talent, a perfect fit, a born warrior.

Chubu is clearly such a fighter for the underworld. To call this probability a needle in a haystack would be an understatement. Over millions of years, the seeds of the world have consumed countless small worlds, and yet, to find such a ghost fighter is remarkable.

Looking at Chubu, Hades withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, "You may practice in the underworld."

"Obey!"

Chubu bowed his head respectfully, then withdrew back to the Earth Yin Star's magic star.

It's worth noting he true ghost fighter is qualified to return to the magic star for training. Their origin complements that of the magic star. This synergy accelerates both the ghost fighter's cultivation speed and the feedback received by the magic star, enhancing their understanding of the Underworld garment.

For example, Hades is the master of the magic star, while the underworld fighter is akin to the young master of the magic star. The Underworld garment serves as the central hub of the magic star. Randomly selected underworld fighters are like guards and can be discarded at any time.

With a single step, Hades left the underworld and returned to the chaotic starry sky. This time, he calmly observed the nearby Chaos Sea, preparing to depart.

However, at that moment, a terrifying eye suddenly appeared; an eye that defied description, so bizarre that it overwhelmed Hades with emotions of confusion, madness, and fear. These feelings surged into his mind uncontrollably. Instinctively, Hades controlled his divine body, using his divine power to regain his will almost instantly. This was true recovery.

Yet, the eye seemed oblivious to Hades. In his final glance, he saw a horrific planet, one that had consumed countless small worlds, before it vanished into the Chaos Sea.

As it faded, Hades panted heavily, his face pale, breath weak; he had never felt so drained, even when trying to cross the Chaos Sea.

This was just a fleeting glance. Had the gaze truly been directed at him, Hades had no doubt he would have been consumed by madness and chaos, becoming a mere madman.

"When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes back at you."

This phrase echoed in his mind as Hades gradually calmed himself, aided by the magical power of the magic star. His breath steadied.

Slowly, Hades regained his composure and murmured, "Its an Outer God..."

He refrained from naming it directly. Just as one should never invoke a god's name without caution, uttering the name of this terrifying Outer God could summon it like a shark sensing blood.

Crystal Wall System!

Many perceive the crystal wall system as a barrier to the world. However, its true purpose is to protect the world from being devoured by these Outer Gods. If the crystal wall system were to fail, these Outer Gods would consume everything.

Within this Chaos Sea, the Outer Gods are the most fearsome hunters, focused solely on devouring worlds.

Looking away, Hades turned and left without hesitation. Should he encounter that gaze again, it could lead to dire consequences.

Outer Gods are formless beings, embodying fear, chaos, and madness. They are manifestations of their own consciousness, believers, and dependents.

What they crave most is madness and chaos; the kind that seeks to devour everything. These Outer Gods possess a unique divine power that allows them to roam freely in the Chaos Sea.

Thus, the Chaos Sea becomes perilous. The real danger doesn't lie in the horrific consumption of divine power within it; no matter how terrifying that may be, some gods can endure it.

The true threat is the Outer Gods, who appear unpredictably, each possessing strange and terrifying powers. Even the weakest among them wields divine power comparable to the Primordial Gods. Moreover, their special divine power can drive beings to madness, making prolonged battles futile and even hazardous within the Chaos Sea.

Engaging with entities that infect one's mind in their own territory is fraught with peril.
