Chapter 1178: The King of Chaos' Shock

"[Rune: Control]!" Zhang Lie's two gravity-controlling tablets smashed into the ground. Black ripples emanated from the two gravity-altering tablets, forming a localized region of distorted gravity. contemporary romance

Even so, Null Source nullified the effects of both tablets.

Zhang Lie's tablets, as well as the Keys of the Elder Gods, all trembled.

"[Rune: Control]!" The image of a dragonturtle appeared before him as Zhang Lie raised his hand. Ripples spread out from the two tablets, sealing the lifeform's will and power.

Even those standing by the sides of the arena felt themselves weaken, their thoughts slow.

However, Null Source's unusual fluctuations were able to dispel the effect of these gravitational ripples.

As Zhang Lie summoned the final two tablets, the four dragonturtle tablets hovered around Null Source, causing the Keys of the Elder Gods to tremble even more violently.

The king of chaos was shocked to no end.

If the guests of the halls of chaos were able to think normally, they would surely realize that the link between the Keys of the Elder Gods and the Null Source was growing weaker.

The four runic tablets resonated at once.

As the four tablets appeared simultaneously, a shocking situation unfolded. The tablets and the Keys of the Elder Gods began to resonate together and to vibrate at the same frequency. Once that resonance occurred, the black runes from the dragonturtle tablets appeared in the air and flew toward the Keys of the Elder Gods.

At the same time, arcane runes and diagrams from the Keys of the Elder Gods glowed and appeared in mid-air, linking up with the dragonturtle tablets.

The king of chaos was astounded. His chaotic energy began to run rampant, so shocked was he by the unexpected interaction. The runes from the Keys of the Elder Gods and the dragonturtle tablets looked as though they were chained together as they began to exchange information.

This was an event of unparalleled magnitude.

The Keys of the Elder Gods harkened back to the age of gods, and the records within it could date back to a primordial era. Even the very existence of such an era was unclear; this was simply the king of chaos' best guess.

The king of chaos hypothesized that the Keys of the Elder Gods could very well have recorded the creation of the dimensional realm at large, and even the route to godhood—not just the ability to ascend to a higher realm, from the third to the fourth, but entering the world of the gods themselves.

However, all of this was just a hypothesis. Even the king of chaos' strength was insufficient to read and comprehend the contents of the Keys. If he were to do so by force, he would end up like the Null Source, a monster whose existence was meaningless.

The Null Source had become a guardian of the Keys—or, more rudely, the Keys' slave.

The Keys of godhood were a creation that the king of chaos had naturally assumed to be unique to the third realm, but Zhang Lie's tablets were somehow able to resonate with the Keys.

Did Zhang Lie also possess tablets of that hypothetical era?

Even the king of chaos had grown interested in Zhang Lie's dragonturtle tablets.

When he glanced at the contents of those tablets, however, that desire vanished in an instant.

He couldn't understand the contents of the tablets.

Both sets of tablets were, in truth, incomprehensible.

Zhang Lie didn't deliberately hide the ancient text on his dragonturtle tablets. Despite this, even when the tablets were revealed in their entirety, an existence as old and knowledgeable as the king of chaos was still unable to read them.

The text of the dragonturtle tablets was clearly an ancient script that had been lost to time.

Even after so long, the king of chaos had only managed to decipher a small portion of the text from the Keys. Even if he were to study the dragonturtle tablets earnestly, it would be impossible for him to easily understand their contents.

The Null Source, as if sensing something, amplified the vibrations and fluctuations to new heights, deepening the connection between the two sets of tablets.

Zhang Lie wasn't too surprised about the resonance between the Keys and the dragonturtle tablets.

While glancing at the Keys, Zhang Lie had realized with some shock that the runic script of the Keys and his dragonturtle tablets looked startlingly similar, which was why he had chosen the Null Source as an opponent to begin with.

He wanted to see if there would be any unusual interactions between the tablets and the Keys—a gamble that had paid off even better than he had expected.

"I'll be taking those tablets!"

The dragonturtle tablets began to vibrate even more violently, as did the Keys.

"[Rune: Resonate]!" The four dragonturtle tablets began to resonate as one, sending ripples that melded with the space and forming an absolute domain over all things within and without.

In the region of stopped time, the Keys were slowly rotating to face the dragonturtle tablets.

Meanwhile, the Null Source continued to deepen the connection between itself and the Keys. Its jelly-like appendages grabbed onto the Keys, refusing to let go.

"Let go obediently, now..." Zhang Lie's mud-yellow genetic energy roiled toward the Null Source, which defended itself with its localized fluctuations. "[Fists of the Silent Sea: Quake]!"

The world shook. The hall trembled. The floor beneath his feet quaked.

As he punched forward, gravity changed all around him. Quakes vibrated through the floor, which cracked. The cracks propagated outward through the arena, causing a huge fissure to form by Zhang Lie's fee.

If not for the fact that the hall was reinforced, Zhang Lie's fist would have cracked through the planet's mantle itself, causing a historic earthquake and causing lava to erupt from the planet's very core. All would have been submerged within boiling-hot lava.

Struck by the shockwaves through the air and through the earth, Null Source's localized defensive waves were continuously being suppressed. The cracks in the floor spread further and further. The Null Source had to resist the shockwaves coming at it through two media and maintain a strong tether to the Keys.

In the end, its body shrunk and bounced high into the air.
