Episode 9: The Famous Shocker Chapter 35: Target, The Collar of Chaos!

The breeze blew, ruffling Linley’s hair, while Linley himself sat quietly on the ground, eyes closed as he meditated. The mind was completely in tune with that earth, with that wind.

“Clatter, clatter, clatter, clatter,” Linley felt the blazing magma flowing deep within the earth.

“Hohoho” Linley felt the change in the speed of the wind in the sky, the wind high up in the sky was very fast, however the wind inside the mansion in the imperial capital was much smaller, the change in the wind, everything was reflected in Linley’s heart.

Linley enjoyed cultivating, every realization, every breakthrough was a sublimation of the soul, a metamorphosis of the mind!

The kind of moving that made the heart tremble.

“What the Martial God said back then was probably correct, focusing on cultivating along one path. The laws of the earth are vast and boundless, and this earth pulsation should be one of the more profound ones.”

Linley could tell.

That Hedson was comprehending the same Earth Laws as himself, but was following a different path than himself.

However, his own vibrational wave attack was clearly more efficient than the other party’s!

“Dang!”

“Dang!”

The peculiar pulsations of the earth completely captivated Linley again, and once again, Linley immersed himself in his senses, endeavoring to parse out the mysteries.

Ever since Linley’s battle with Hedson, Linley had become one of the most recognized pinnacle powerhouses in the entire Yulan Continent, already ranking alongside Hedson, the Pope of Light, the Pope of Darkness, and a number of others, and in the imperial capital of Red Inferno City, the position of the Baruch family had become increasingly transcendent.

Obviously. Despite its reputation, not many people dared to bother Linley.

“Every time I go to comprehend, I have different feelings.”

Linley opened his eyes, and a smile couldn’t help but appear on his face. In the bottom of Linley’s heart, he also marveled, “Even the pulsations of the earth are so arcane and unfathomable, so how vast are the laws of the earth?”

It was no wonder. Reaching the divine realm was so difficult.

Even the Martial God, who was so marvelous, had reached the Lower God for more than five thousand years and was still a Lower God.

“Brother!”

The five brothers Walton and Barker ran over.

“Knew you few had come over.”

Linley smiled as he stood up, sensing the pulsations of the earth, and when the Walton few came over, Linley naturally felt it as well.

The crowd finished their lunch.

“Sessler.”

Linley directly got up and greeted Sessler with a smile, leading Sessler to his courtyard where the two of them sat down opposite each other.

“Lord Linley, is there something wrong?”

Sessler inquired suspiciously.

Linley had a complicated expression. Sighing, he said, “Sessler, you should know about my Baruch family.”

Sessler had been in this earldom for so long that he naturally knew everything. Sessler nodded immediately.

Linley indifferently said, “Both of my parents died, and the culprit was that Illuminati. That day. I swore when I left Hess City. One day I would uproot the Illuminati.”

Sessler also knew of this goal of Linley’s.

Linley looked at Sessler, “I know that my own strength is in the midst of a steady increase. Especially with the addition of Bebe, Heilu, and the five Barker brothers …… I have the confidence to face the Illuminati. I’m going to, start dealing with the Illuminati!”

“Begin?”

Sessler was startled.

Linley was going to officially take on the Illuminati?

“Linley, although our strength is considered strong. But that Illuminati has solid roots as well ……”

Sessler hurriedly persuaded, although he also wanted to destroy the Illuminati, he had to be wise. Linley smiled and waved his hand, “No, I’m certainly in no hurry to go head-to-head with them.”

“I heard you talk about the Collar of Chaos last time, saying that the Illuminati held that in high regard? And that it’s very powerful there?”

Linley proceeded to inquire.

Sessler was over eight hundred years old. He had also lived in the Collar of Chaos for a long time back then.

“Of course it’s valued!”

Sessler said in detail. “Linley, according to my understanding of the Illuminati. They have nothing but pure souls to offer to the Lord of Light. What the Lord of Light needs is enough faith! The more believers there are, the more faith there is. The Illuminati has always cried out. Letting the light of the Lord shine on the wider earth is actually this purpose.”

Linley nodded slightly.

Sessler wiggled his fingers and said, “Linley, throughout the entire continent, the more chaotic places are the Far East Prairie, the Collar of Chaos, and the Eighteen Principalities of the Northern Domain!”

“Among them, the Far East Prairie, with its continuous killing spree, the Prairie Cavalry is known for its cruelty. With belligerent blood in their bones, how could they believe in the Illuminati? The nature of the steppe warriors dictates that the Illuminati simply cannot succeed there.”

Sessler spoke eloquently, “As for the Eighteen Northern Duchies, those Eighteen Northern Duchies actually believe in the Ice and Snow Goddess.”

“Ice and Snow Goddess?”

Linley indeed didn’t know much about the Eighteen Northern Region Principalities.

“Right.”

Sessler nodded, “Although the eighteen northern duchies fight with each other, the Ice and Snow Goddess Temple has absolute control over the eighteen northern duchies. And the Ice and Snow Goddess Temple is unfathomable …… Plus, the Ice and Snow Goddess Temple has no ambition and has been huddled in the eighteen principalities of the North Region. The Illuminati, naturally, won’t mess with this great enemy.”

Linley smiled.

Linley had always been somewhat puzzled …… by the Eighteen Principalities of the Northern Domain, which were in the northern part of the Forest of Darkness. The only country they bordered was the O’Brien Empire. The Eighteen Principalities of the Northern Region was equivalent to a little more than a province. With the O’Brien Empire’s national strength, it wouldn’t be difficult to conquer.

But why not conquer?

Linley understood now, it seemed to be related to the Ice Woman Goddess Temple.

“These two places are impossible, leaving only the Domain of Chaos!”

Sessler exclaimed, “The Collar of Chaos, very chaotic. It’s horribly chaotic.”

“How chaotic?”

Sessler sighed, “First, back then, there were forty-eight principalities in the Domain of Chaos. Of course, this is the statistics of that year. This Chaotic Territory has frequent wars, and every few years, the number of principalities changes. Perhaps there are fifty or so now. Maybe there are forty. It’s hard to say. This is the first chaos.”

“The second chaos is the surroundings. They are bordering the O’Brien Empire, the Roao Empire, and the Extreme East Prairie respectively, and all three of these forces have been hitting their land!”

“The third chaos, the Illuminati and the Dark Clerics have also been trying to conquer the Collar of Chaos. In the Territory of Chaos, these two are the strongest. They have the most influence. The two great sects are naturally antagonistic and fight each other endlessly.”

Linley sighed as he listened. The Domain of Chaos, if it wasn’t chaotic like this, there would be no heavenly reason.

“There’s also the fourth chaos!”

Sester sighed, “To the north of the Territory of Chaos is the vast Forest of Darkness, and the magical beasts in the Forest of Darkness are not much less than the Magical Beast Mountains. Every few decades, or a dozen years, there will be a wave of magical beasts …… countless magical beasts, rushing from the Dark Forest to the Territory of Chaos. That’s not generally tragic!”

Linley’s face changed.

A magical beast riot?

The Holy Alliance had experienced the Day of Destruction, and Linley knew how terrifying a thing it was for a large number of earthly magical beasts to rush out. It would be absolute doom.

“Of course. Although it’s said to be a wave of magical beasts, the number couldn’t possibly be as terrifying as the Day of Destruction, though.”

Sessler laughed, “Most of the magical beasts that gushed out of the Forest of Darkness were intermediate and low level ones. There are very few high-level ones. And the number is high though. But at that time in the Collar of Chaos, all the great duchies will be united in their efforts, and will still be able to kill the magical beasts cleanly.”

Linley’s heart was clear.

There were few high-level magical beasts, so the destructive power was much lower. Plus the number should be far less than the Holy Alliance that time. The destructive power wouldn’t be too terrifying.

“Linley, it’s different from the original Sacred Alliance. The waves of magical beasts in this Dark Forest don’t just happen once. Rather, it happens once every few decades, or a dozen years, with this kind of frequency. It also makes it impossible for the Domain of Chaos to come to peace as well.”

Sessler lamented.

Linley sighed darkly.

These four major reasons. It was indeed making it so that the Domain of Chaos would constantly be in chaos.

“Although the duchies are small, when the forty-eight duchies are added together, the territory is large. The Territory of Chaos. It definitely catches up to half of the O’Brien Empire. Even more so, the Collar of Chaos, it shouldn’t be too far off from today’s Holy Alliance. Linley nodded his head as well.

The Sacred Alliance, after the Day of Destruction, only had two thirds of the territory it had in the past. Adding to that, the O’Brien Empire was originally the largest empire in terms of territory.

The Territory of Chaos, if it could catch up to half of the O’Brien Empire, would also catch up to the present-day Sacred Alliance.

“Such a large territory naturally makes the Illuminati hot. The Light Synod and the Dark Synod both have many experts there, and their roots are deep.”

Linley heard this, but smiled.

How many people would the Illuminati send to a territory that wasn’t even close to today’s Holy Alliance?

“If the Illuminati had twenty or thirty Saint realm powerhouses, he would at the very least send five or six, or seven or eight Saint realm powerhouses over there.”

Linley said in his heart.

In the Sacred Island, there was definitely a gathering place for the strongest experts of the Illuminati.

And the powerhouses in the Collar of Chaos shouldn’t be the top tier.

“When my brother gets married, we’ll set off for the Collar of Chaos.”

Linley looked at Sessler and smiled, “The war against the Illuminati will begin in the Collar of Chaos.”

Destroying the Illuminati’s thousands of years of roots in the Collar of Chaos would absolutely drive the Illuminati mad with anger.

“The Collar of Chaos?”

Sessler’s eyes lit up, “Good!”

Linley smiled faintly, to uproot the Illuminati’s roots that had been operating for thousands of years in the Collar of Chaos, it was definitely not something that could be done in a year and a half.

“Cultivate while generally dealing with them. When the Illuminati’s people in the Territory of Chaos are exterminated, I’ll probably have stepped into the Holy Realm in my human form, and my understanding of the earth’s pulsations will definitely be higher at that time. At that time …… I’ll also be able to directly battle the Illuminati.”

Linley had a very clear plan in his mind.

Step by step, without haste, uprooting the Illuminati step by step!

Walden had said at first that he couldn’t happily go to the big wedding with Nina without waiting for the end of the Linley, Hedson war. And now they had set a wedding day – the day of the month.

And now that it was already September, the Earl’s Court, the Royal Family, had all begun to prepare for this big wedding.

The wedding banquet, however, was much more grand than the engagement one.

The Earldom, in Linley’s courtyard.

“Linley, our fleet is going back to the Yulan Empire, and I’m going back with my teacher.”

Delia looked at Linley and bit her lip as she whispered. Linley’s smile, who had originally been smiling, froze for a moment.

Knowing that Delia was leaving, Linley couldn’t help but feel a pain in his heart.

The months that Delia had spent with herself should have been the easiest part of Linley’s life in the past ten years, every single day filled with smiles for himself.

“Leaving?”

Linley squeezed out a smile, “Have a safe trip then.”

Delia, however, laughed, she could see that Linley couldn’t bear to part with it in his heart, “However, I’ve spoken to my teacher again, and told him that he should go back first, and I’ll just continue to stay here as a private person.”

“Ah.”

Linley cried and laughed.

“You’re not happy?”

Delia’s brows furrowed.

“Happy, happy.”

Linley said evenly, and then Linley looked solemnly at Delia and said, “Delia, let me tell you something.”

“What is it?”

Delia looked at Linley expectantly.

“After my brother’s big wedding, I should be going to the Domain of Chaos.”

Linley said.

“Oh, then I’ll go along as well.”

Delia said without hesitation.

But just at that moment, several excited shouts rang out in the distance, and several figures quickly rushed outside the door of Linley’s courtyard, Gates’ loud voice being the first to ring out, “My lord, my fourth brother, he’s also broken through, reaching level nine!”

Among the five Barker brothers, a fourth Saint Domain had appeared.

“Another Saint Domain?”
