At this critical moment, Emery realized that his Dao of Heaven and Earth was still incomplete.
He possessed a vast understanding of the eight nature elements, yet his comprehension of the deeper laws—the fundamental opposition between light and darkness—remained lacking. And as the Grandmaster had warned, Khaos was something beyond even that. It was not merely darkness; it was something more—something that defied the very fabric of existence.
For the longest time, Emery had suspected that Khaos was an entity that went beyond the Primordial Wisp, a force outside the conventional laws of reality. And now, as the ferocious heavenly tribulation rained down upon him, punishing his existence itself, that suspicion was confirmed.
Yet, rather than seeing it as a curse, Emery saw the truth: This meant Khaos was something special. Something unique. And if such a force had chosen him, he would not simply let it go—not unless there was no other choice.
