The bitter clash between the Law of Primal Chaos and the Unrestricted Soul Spirit Mark was still going on. This was a very strange affair; they were clearly Xia Fei’s most important powers, yet neither was submitting to the other. This was especially true for the Law of Primal Chaos, which had displayed its subversive attribute to the extreme!

“I can’t go on like this,” Xia Fei muttered to himself. “The Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Plated Armor is still a threat, and I have no idea when this internal conflict of mine will resolve. Every minute that passes I can feel a large amount of energy being wasted!”

Radix added, “The Law of Primal Chaos and the Unrestricted Soul Spirit Mark are both your powers. Their fight would of course end up using your energy, but what can we do about it?”

Xia Fei arched both his eyebrows and bellowed, “No matter what happens, I must resolve this stupid internal conflict!”

*Whoosh!*

With that, Xia Fei leapt off the ground, holding onto Nirvana as he rounded a slash toward the Law of Primal Chaos!

*Boom!*

The six-bladed snowfall blade very cleverly passed through the Pattern of the Law of Primal Chaos. This so-called Pattern was actually made out of energy and was not a physical manifestation by any means. Xia Fei’s attack was impressive, but he still held back some. After all, he would be the one suffering a loss if he truly damaged it!

His blade suddenly turned, and delivered an attack to the Unrestricted Soul Spirit Mark.

How could there be something as peculiar as this situation? Xia Fei’s Soul Mark and Law Pattern actually ended up fighting with each other! Xia Fei had to intervene personally!

After these two slashes, the fight between the two came to a temporary halt thanks to Xia Fei’s actions. But he did not stop himself there and accelerated in an oblique path again and charged over, throwing out a kick right at the Law of Primal Chaos Pattern.

The Law of Primal Chaos Pattern of course did not resist Xia Fei, because it was essentially Xia Fei’s to begin with. The dim Pattern fell backward, and was eaten up by the six-sided Soul Mark that had been hiding behind it.

Having done it once, he could do it twice; Xia Fei did the same thing once more. The Law of Primal Chaos dared to resist the Soul Mark, but not Xia Fei. Very soon, his Soul Mark had managed to consume the other eight Patterns of the Law of Primal Chaos!

The entire process was very frightening. The time when the Soul Mark took Xia Fei’s Law of Space and Beast Spirit Codex, it had hardly met any significant resistance. But this time the Law of Primal Chaos had defended itself like it had gone mad. When the Soul Mark absorbed one of the Patterns, the situation looked as if it was about to explode, and everyone’s heart thumped madly as it happened.

*Chomp!*

The final Pattern was absorbed by the Unrestricted Soul Spirit Mark. At this point, the six-sided Unrestricted Soul Spirit Mark had expanded to three times its original size! It would mean a job accomplished once they make their way back into Xia Fei’s seventh brain region!

All of a sudden!

The Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Plated Armor had been unwilling to admit defeat and came dashing out once more. This time, it seemed like it had done some careful planning, and was prepared to ram its body right into the Soul Mark!

Xia Fei’s Soul Mark was presently in an unstable state, and the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Plated Armor was very sturdy. Not once had the repeated attacks from Xia Fei left even a scratch on it this whole time, but if the Armor were to collide right into the Soul Mark, the latter would very likely completely collapse from the impact!

The Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Plated Armor had the stealth attribute and came zooming in without any warning. It startled Xia Fei so much that he broke out in a cold sweat!

*Whoosh!*

For some unknown reason, the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s plated armor suddenly froze up in midair, before turning away in an arc. It attempted to slink into the wall again, giving up its attack on the Soul Mark.

“That was close! Your Soul Mark was very unstable just now, and had lost its means of resisting. If that collision had occurred, it would surely have been a disaster! Why did that strange armor suddenly stop its attack?” Radix asked in amazement.

Xia Fei glanced at where the armor had disappeared and calmly replied, “There’s only one explanation. After absorbing both my Beast Spirit Codex and the Law of Primal Chaos, both legacies of the Fiends, it might have changed my Soul Mark somewhat.”

“What sort of changes?” Radix asked again.

Xia Fei answered, “It’s now closer to that of the Fiends.”

Radix was shocked to hear that. He fixed his suspicious gaze over at that mass of constantly moving light in mid-air. Indeed, the Unrestricted Soul Spirit Mark was a fusion Soul Mark, and the moment it assimilated the two major powers of the Fiends, it was no longer pure!

The Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Plated Armor had a spirit of its own. It might not have reached human sapiency levels, explaining why it had hesitated in the moment it sensed a Spiritualist Soul Mark belonging to the Fiends from Xia Fei, before ultimately deciding to give up on the attack!

Frowning, Radix thought of a problem. The only other law that Xia Fei had not maxed out was his Law of Speed, and was that not a legacy Law from the Fiends as well? If it were to be absorbed by his Soul Mark, would Xia Fei become an actual Fiend?!

*Rumble!*

A blast of light flooded the six-sided Unrestricted Soul Spirit Mark! It was done absorbing the Law of Primal Chaos!

This was like bundling several ropes together: Space, Chaos, and Beast Spirit. Xia Fei had mastered those three powers and they were now all completely integrated into his Soul Mark! It was now a whole!

Instantly, the six-sided Soul Mark began spinning, all the while emitting an unprecedented light! Like hundreds of lighthouses altogether, they lit up the hive as if it were daylight!

*Whoosh!*

In the next second, the Soul Mark formally returned to Xia Fei’s body.

It was as if every single cell on his body had been reenergized. Xia Fei could feel that he was far more powerful than he had ever been before! Though he still only had six Soul Marks, it was already mixed with the power from his Law of Primal Chaos!

Most people’s Law Patterns would remain as they were, requiring time before they could be used, but Xia Fei’s brain region already had the six-sided Soul Mark and all the other Laws already absorbed into his Soul Mark!

Xia Fei could not resist and let out a powerful roar. It was like an immense font of energy flooded Xia Fei’s body and exploded. Xia Fei felt as if he could just punch and blow away an entire planet!

*Whoosh!*

——

After a very long time, Xia Fei finally returned back to normal, but a light flush still remained on his face, largely because of his level of excitement.

“Let’s go!” Xia Fei said with a swing of his arm.

“Where to?” Radix asked.

“To find that Armor the Sky Devil left behind. Something so good must belong to me, or I’ll make it disappear from the face of this universe forever!” Xia Fei replied nonchalantly.

The Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Plated Armor had a spirit of its own and was very powerful, having caused quite a bit of trouble for Xia Fei. Given Xia Fei’s logic, since he had found something so precious, then he had to think of a way for him to get his hands on it. Even if he could not do that, he had to at least destroy it to prevent it from falling into the hands of others in the future.

——

Leaving the huge hive, Xia Fei suddenly discovered that there seemed to be some changes to the Tomb. The paths were no longer as complex and winding, and there were a lot less forks in the passageway now.

Xia Fei was very fast, and it did not take long for him to arrive at somewhere very special.

Here, the mural on both sides were no longer the scenes of the Sky Devil killing, but depictions of worship of the Broken Wing Sky Devil.

There was only one doorway, and Xia Fei walked right through it, only to discover the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Plated Armor lying silently on a not-too ridiculously huge white rock slab.

Upon seeing Xia Fei enter, the Armor did not attack. That was very strange. Before, it had been bursting with killing intent, a strong desire to finish Xia Fei off. But now, it was like some lifeless hunk of metal, ignoring Xia Fei’s intrusion.

“Be careful!” Radix said in a low voice. “This could be the main chamber of the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Tomb.”

Xia Fei nodded and slowly approached the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Plated Armor. The broken wings on its back had already disappeared, and it looked as ordinary as any other piece of armor. Were it not for the very distinct insignia on its chest, Xia Fei would surely have mistaken it for some common equipment anyone could find on the streets.

Xia Fei frowned. He had no idea what was up with this Armor, not sensing any energy or spirituality in it now.

Xia Fei did not head over to touch the Armor, but turned around to examine the murals on the walls around the room.

The face and image of the Broken Wing Sky Devil was depicted everywhere, looking like he had been this kindly old man, much different from the figure with no distinct features that was depicted outside.

Furthermore, the mural inside the main chamber told a story. Every image here showed nothing of the Broken Wing Sky Devil harming anyone, a stark contrast from what was outside.

Xia Fei and Radix slowly walked along the wall, and the story related to the Sky Devil slowly appeared in Xia Fei’s mind.

Before the chaos of the cosmos, the Fiends were just a small species located in some corner of a galaxy. Their numbers were not great, and their combat strength was nothing superb, either. However, what the Fiend warriors had was toughness and drive, and their understanding of other sapient lifeforms were different as well, which was why they were excluded from the mainstream sapient lifeforms.

One day, the Four Great Sky Devils abruptly appeared in their midst. As soon as they came to be, they immediately subdued the entire race. These four beings were very fond of the comprehension the Fiends had toward combat, as well as their pursuit of life.

As such, the four of them stayed in their lands, and proceeded to impart to them many strange combat techniques. Though they were outsiders, the Four Great Sky Devils were much adored by the Fiends, becoming veritable kings of the Fiends.

That lasted until one day when the Fiends were under attack by some unknown cosmic forces. These Four Great Devils acted, slaughtering over a billion souls in one day!

A billion enemies were slain by the hands of the Four Great Sky Devils!

It was only at this point that the Fiends realized just how much more frightening the Four Great Sky Devils were than they had thought them to be! What they had imparted to the Fiends were nothing more than minor tricks and insignificant arts in the eyes of these Sky Devils, and hardly everything that they knew!

Additionally, the Four Great Sky Devils had massacred their enemies with such efficiency that even the Fiends, who had always been known for their ruthlessness, balked at the feat. A billion lives in one day! All the blood that their enemies bled would be enough to wipe out an entire galaxy! It was a nightmarish day!

Even more scary was that when everything ended, the four Great Sky Devils were still talking and laughing. It was as if the massacre they had just undertaken was as uneventful as a man who had accidentally stepped on some ants.

Ever since that day, even the most ruthless warriors among the Fiends no longer dared to call themselves ruthless. Everyone felt that it was inaccurate to call them the four Sky Gods, so they changed it to Sky Devils! As such, the tradition of the Fiends worshiping devils began!

Unfortunately, on the day after that incident, the Four Great Sky Devils all departed without leaving a word behind. Perhaps it was because they had established a good relationship with the Fiends that each of the four left a single piece of equipment behind. The Broken Wing Sky Devil Paletooth left his Plated Armor, the Gale Sky Devil Medicinal Cauldron Prince left behind a metal Tome, and the brothers Bitter Sea Sky Devil Forgotten Vale and Calamity Sky Devil Forgotten Trouble each left behind a shortsword, which could be combined to form Paired Comet.

The Fiends were of course deeply saddened by their departure. After a long time passed and seeing no signs of their return, they proceeded to inter the four relics from the Four Great Sky Devils in four Fiend Holy Cities. They also constructed the Cenotaph as an outward declaration that the Sky Devils were dead, and as such spurred their descendents to work hard and train, so as to not pine for the day the Sky Devils would return and help the Fiends dominate the entire universe.

“After all that, these Four Great Sky Devils aren’t dead at all! And none of them were Fiends to begin with?” Xia Fei frowned slightly as he summarized what he had learned.

Turning his head to look at the immobile Sky Devil Armor, even more questions surfaced in Xia Fei’s mind.
