Chapter 48: Order in Ruin
update icon Updated at 2026/8/20 22:00:04

This world began with twelve powerful chaotic deities, and later many more chaotic deities appeared, but the majority were still the initial twelve deities. Gradually, the universe was divided into various regions, each occupied by different powerful deities!

After an unknown amount of time, a cosmic gate appeared in the universe. Bexia initially thought it would be a dark god, but to her surprise, it was not a dark god this time. Instead, it was deities from another universe, whose purpose in coming here was invasion.

The deities from the foreign universe crazily plundered various resources, spreading constant killing. The native deities engaged in fierce battles with them, eventually defeating and destroying the cosmic gate. However, this was only just the beginning…

Over countless time, new cosmic gates appeared at intervals. Bexia sensed the aura of different universes, totaling eight different universe auras. The dark gods were just one of them.

The battles continued incessantly, weakening the native universe. The invading forces from other universes grew stronger, plundering more resources, causing the loss of power in the native universe to accelerate, hastening its path towards reboot.

The era of order was gradually collapsing!

Bexia's twelve avatars followed a chaotic deity, the strongest beings of that era, to alleviate the universe's crisis. Gathering together, they planned to counterattack the other universes. Bexia's will allowed these twelve deities to join forces, successfully invading several universes and slowing down the loss of universal power.

However, all this was like playing with fire. The counterattacks from the other eight universes came swiftly. In the terrifying battles, the universe was shattered, resulting in a loss of half of the indigenous universe's life forms. Even Bexia's protected twelve chaotic deities suffered heavy casualties, with many of them dead. Even the survivors had to enter a deep slumber to recover from their injuries.

Unbeknownst to everyone, before their deaths, each of the eight chaotic deities had their ethereal souls enveloped by an invisible force, separated from their bodies. After reclaiming their will, Bexia naturally gained these ethereal souls.

"It will be up to me to protect my sisters!" Bexia couldn't believe that the resemblance between the chaotic deities and her sisters was a mere coincidence. She speculated that perhaps these deities were the predecessors of her sisters. Therefore, she used primitive chaos to protect the final remnants of their ethereal souls. When her power was sufficient, she could naturally use this to revive them.

As time passed slowly and the power of the eight universes advanced, the native universe accelerated towards destruction. At the moment of the collapse of the era of order, Bexia received the last faint ethereal souls. Looking at these dots of various colors in her hands, Bexia collected them all into the primordial chaos, then closed her eyes, awaiting the arrival of the new era.

Time had left no trace on Bexia. The reboot of the era seemed identical to before, starting from primitive chaos. However, in this process, Bexia began actively absorbing the power of primitive chaos.

Bexia's current power was at the peak of a creator deity, one step away from becoming a supreme deity. Originally, she had intended to comprehend other rules to enhance her power. But after witnessing how her sisters ascended, Bexia now had a new choice.

Becoming a supreme deity, Bexia thought she needed to consolidate the power into power from at least three rules to achieve it. However, within the era of order, there was another method, which was to cultivate a single rule to the extreme, transforming it directly into power. This would allow her to command all the power of the rules under that power.

This was a more difficult path compared to the former, but once successful, it would bring unexpected enhancements. Depending on the strength of the rule conversion into power, typically hundreds to even thousands of rules constituted the subordinates. Even each of the twelve sisters under Bexia's protection, upon successfully consolidating power, added nearly two thousand rules to their power, surpassing creator deities to achieve the status of supreme deities.

Certainly, the best aspect of this method was the infinite consolidation of power, no longer restricted to holding only a single power. Although consolidating more power became harder, the potential for unlimited consolidation far outweighed any other choice, as any practitioner not foolish would opt for the former.

Therefore, after the onset of this cosmic era, Bexia attempted to absorb more power from the primitive chaos, aiming to transform chaos rules into chaotic power. If successful, with the power of chaotic authority, she would leap over creator deities, even surpassing her sisters' achievements, becoming a supreme deity with over two thousand rules of power.

She felt that if she truly succeeded, she would have the ability to break free from the Book of Time's power and resurrect her sisters.

Bexia quietly absorbed the power of the surrounding primitive chaos. Yet, what he didn't know was that the amount of primitive chaos was limited. It was like clearing weeds in a barren land with explosives, where the primitive chaos served as the explosives, and the void universe as the barren land. The range for clearing had been calculated, with an adequate amount of explosives prepared. However, Bexia had stolen a portion of the explosives, leaving an area untreated. And that area happened to be where Bexia was located, as all the surrounding primitive chaos had been absorbed by her.
