The Era of Gods-Chapter 724 - 724 Banish and Chaos Territory
Chapter 724: Chapter 724 Banish and Chaos Territory Chapter 724 -724 Banish and Chaos Territory However, the World Devourer would certainly not let Nightmare’s Will incarnate have its way.
Having fed it as if it were its own child, sharing every bite of its own for over a thousand years, how could it possibly sit by and watch it die.
Following an indescribable roar, an invisible fluctuation erupted with the World Devourer at the center, rapidly solidifying the void.
Even the Chaos Giant, the incarnation of Nightmare’s Will, was affected, its movements greatly slowed, as the Great Chaos Hand reaching for Lin Xiao became slower and slower.
After all, it wasn’t the true Nightmare Sovereign, and having lost a leg earlier, its strength had been greatly reduced.
It couldn’t withstand the full power of a Chaos Creature.
At the same time, taking advantage of the situation, the World Devourer’s body, vast as a world itself, lunged and bit into the Chaos Giant’s brain, biting its head off in one go.
...
But the next second, the remaining body of the Nightmare Sovereign rapidly disintegrated.
An infinite amount of Chaos Energy turned into an immense vortex that stood firm against the falling solidified force field.
A speck of light flew out from the vortex and quickly became a finger that pierced the solidified force field reaching in front of Lin Xiao, opening ripples that made Lin Xiao’s silhouette gradually become illusory, his form and aura slowly fading away.
“Banish!”
Lin Xiao sighed softly, it was a bit better than he had expected.
As long as he wasn’t caught on the spot, being banished was not a problem.
The World Devourer watched as his form and aura completely disappeared, and immediately, it was overcome with an immeasurable wrath.
A terrifying roar spread, turning millions of kilometers around into chaos.
Putting aside the World Devourer’s anger, Lin Xiao was personally banished by Nightmare’s Will at that moment.
In an instant, he crossed boundless voids at such a speed that even with the strength of his incarnation, he could hardly perceive his surroundings, and he sank into a state of dulled senses.
However, the banishment lasted only a very short time.
Using his own formidable strength, he broke the last restraints left by Nightmare’s Will and gained control over himself.
In a moment, he stopped and appeared out of thin air in an unfamiliar Chaos Sea of Void.
He didn’t know where he was, but he could sense a familiar aura nearby—it was that of the Golden Ancient Tree Avatar which had been banished from the Totem Crystal Wall Universe a long time ago.
Clearly, the destination where Nightmare’s Will had banished them was here.
What appeared before him was a massive black hole, not the kind born from his incarnation or the enigma of the great life form, but a massive void in the Chaos Sea before him, emitting a strong gravitational pull that sucked the surrounding Chaos Energy into it, creating a black hole.
The aura of the Golden Ancient Tree Avatar was inside it.
This was not the Sin Abyss where powerful beings or civilizations from the Divine Realm specifically banish criminals.
Although he had never seen it, Lin Xiao knew the Sin Abyss was not like this, but he was certain that it was an absolute land as dangerous as the Sin Abyss.
Previously, Lin Xiao’s true body could not discern the exact location of the Golden Ancient Tree Avatar.
It was an unexpected turn of events that another of his incarnations had now been sent here by Nightmare’s Will.
It was an opportunity to check on the condition of the Golden Ancient Tree Avatar and see if it was trapped inside and whether there was a chance to rescue it.
Although the black hole’s attraction force was strong, it could not affect him from such a distance.
But as he drew closer, the gravitational pull increased.
When he got close enough, even he was affected by its force.
Keep in mind that although Lin Xiao’s incarnation was not as supreme as the one that became the King of All Gods in the Giant Divine Crystal Wall System, it was still not something that could be compared to ordinary Powerful Divine Power.
Furthermore, given that he himself was a being born from a black hole and was affected, it showed that the black hole could affect even Super Divine Power close by.
Any Powerful Divine Power sucked into it would likely be unable to escape on their own.
Lin Xiao guessed that his banished Golden Ancient Tree Avatar was trapped here, unable to escape.
Half an hour later, Lin Xiao forcibly resisted the terrifying attraction force and reached the very surface of the black hole.
Chaos Energy compressed into a tangible liquid form flowed like a river into the void from millions, perhaps tens of millions, of kilometers away.
There, he was astonished to discover that this black hole was moving.
And it was moving quickly.
There was no reference in the Chaotic Void; the black hole’s maximum influence range exceeded a hundred million kilometers, and as the gravitational pull drew in itself and the flowing Chaos Energy, he hadn’t noticed at first.
Now, up close, he could feel the black hole rapidly mobilizing through the Chaos Sea of Void, with a speed comparable to the flight speed of a True God.
“Interesting!”
Lin Xiao rubbed his chin and dived headfirst into the black hole, vanishing in an instant.
As the horrendous gravitational force tore at him from all sides, Lin Xiao used his talent for gravity to counteract the force, suspending himself in a lonely and empty traversal.
No, he didn’t feel any movement, as if he were fixed in the void, but he knew he was entering deeper into the black hole.
The sensation was incredibly contradicting.
He had no idea how much time had passed when suddenly, Lin Xiao felt a heaviness all over; out of nowhere, a terrifying pressure appeared, crushing him severely, rapidly weakening his physique’s strength and energy.
Though nothing had changed in the surrounding emptiness, Lin Xiao knew he had left his previous spot, arriving in a very peculiar space.
Yes, very strange indeed.
It wasn’t that the sudden terrifying suppression had diminished his strength by an unknown multiple, but rather that the flow of time in this space seemed somewhat abnormal.
Ordinary people might not notice, but Lin Xiao’s True Body mastered fifty percent of the Origin of the Time Law.
Although this incarnation couldn’t manipulate the Time Law, the Origin of the Time Law had already influenced his incarnation’s soul origin, allowing him to clearly detect the uniqueness of time here.
In this Void, the flow of time was one fiftieth of that in the Chaos Sea of Void outside, meaning time had been slowed down to one fiftieth here, but all his actions remained as normal, not slowed to one fiftieth.
What’s more miraculous was that this one-fiftieth flow of time was not fixed.
In this short period, he felt the flow of time change six times.
It went from the initial one fiftieth to one forty-eighth, then suddenly jumped to ninety-one times the normal flow of time, then to one third, one three-hundredth, and finally to six times the flow of time.
In other words, the flow of time here wasn’t fixed but changed constantly: sometimes it slowed down, and other times it sped up considerably.

There were no discernible patterns, but Lin Xiao felt there wouldn’t be any.
It was quite magical, and Lin Xiao was exceptionally excited, for this indicated that in this unknown world, it might be possible to find another part of the Origin of Time.
In the Chaos Sea of Void, time is uniform, with each Crystal Wall Universe having different time flows, but within a singular world, time is consistent and does not fluctuate abnormally without external force.
A world where the flow of time changes so arbitrarily is something Lin Xiao saw for the first time, though not the first time he heard of.
Lin Xiao had once found a book in the library of Radiant University that recorded some strange Crystal Wall Universes or special places in the Chaos Sea of Void.
It mentioned a world where the flow of time changed unpredictably.
In that world, the variation in the flow of time was tremendous; what would be a normal minute might pass in less than a second, but in the next minute, the world might have passed a hundred years or even ten thousand years.
A regular creature placed in that world might seem the same after a minute, could have died of old age, or might have become a powerful entity comparable to a True God.
This fascinating world had a very apt name—Chaos Territory.
Because in that world, not only was the flow of time strange, but it was also vast, made up of infinite segmented spatial planes, inhabited by endless life forms that could be found in all the Crystal Wall Universes of the Chaos Sea of Void.
For example, some strange worlds housed unique, bizarre creatures; in the Chaos Territory, those types of bizarre creatures would certainly exist.
These bizarre creatures, through various means of derivation or reproduction, would give birth to even more complex monsters.
Within this time-chaotic Chaos Territory, the next second might see the birth of a super monster comparable to Powerful Divine Power in some segmented territory.
Here, only beings greater and with immortal lifespans could be immune to the impact of the chaotic time flow.
Those not of this level could not ensure their survival in the Chaos Territory, as they could age and die at any moment due to an instantaneous change in time by thousands of multiples.
It’s worth mentioning that, theoretically, True Gods with immortal Lives were no longer immortal in this world.
Their lifespans varied according to their strength; for instance, entities with Powerful Divine Power could have lifespans of several million years.
In front of mortals, that might seem immortal, but in the Chaos Territory, it’s just a slightly bigger grasshopper that could be captured and eaten by other, more powerful monsters at any minute.
Lin Xiao’s incarnation was not immortal either, but with strength comparable to an experienced entity with Powerful Divine Power and the nature of a black hole life, he had an incredibly long lifespan.
He himself was not clear about the specific length, but it was definitely not less than ten million years, long enough for him to survive in this Chaos Territory for a considerable time.
Most importantly, his soul essence carried a trace of his True Body’s Origin of Time, making the influence of the world’s time chaos on him very minimal, allowing him to survive even longer.
If he really couldn’t find the Golden Ancient Tree Avatar in some unknown territory, with his black hole and time essence, he could still escape.
This segmented territory was a space with not a trace of sunlight, and except for the pervasive, seductive energy everywhere in the Void, there was no life—lonely, vast.
Lin Xiao wandered in this space for a while, found the edge of the segmented territory, and extended his finger to the junction of two territories.
He gently pierced through a thin but tough invisible membrane, and a stimulating heat greeted his fingertip—the temperature on the other side was extremely high.
Taking a deep breath, he tore open the membrane and walked into the infinite scorching Light.
Simultaneously, at the entrance to the Chaos Territory Black Hole tens of thousands of kilometers away from his initial position, a huge figure appeared out of nowhere.
With octopus-like golden-red tentacles fluttering behind its head and waves of dark gold light spreading out like ripples.
If Lin Xiao were there, he would certainly recognize this as the Abyss Sovereign he had interrupted during his ascension, who had somehow tracked him here.
