The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order Chapter 704: Earth Tribulation (II)

Cain did not take his eyes from the ground as he felt the strength of the Earth Tribulation growing stronger and stronger.

Finally, the land itself began to breathe, and the world's power began to gather within it.

"RUMBLE!"

Cracks appeared across the landscape, not randomly, but in intricate patterns that pulsed with the raw energy of the Earth Law, displaying a might that surpassed Cain's understanding of the Law.

Suddenly, an overwhelming gravitational force took control of Cain's body, exerting an overpowering pull on him, drawing him toward the ground. A sharp light appeared in Cain's eyes as he felt that power, and while he could resist it if he were to use his energy, that would diminish the effect of the Earth Tribulation on him, and that was not sothing he wanted to happen.

"¡Boom!"

Cain made a small crater as he landed on the ground. Before he could even stand up, the earth began to shake with even more violence. These quakes were not re natural phenona but targeted expressions of the Earth Law, seeking to uproot and unsettle, and were powerful enough to affect the mind and senses of soone as strong as the young man.

Cain frowned as he attempted to maintain balance and stand firm but it was proving extrely challeging. Suddenly, his eyes widened and he imdiately used all his strength to move to the side.

"¡BOOM!"

A small teorite had just fallen from the sky as if the Earth Tribulation was plucking them from outer space. Cain managed to dodge it in the last second but was far from safe as more began to fall the next second.

The gravitational pull was too strong for him to fly and reduced his speed, while the trembling affected his sense of stability. Cain had grown powerful enough to overco this Tribulation by brute force, but that would be a mistake. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes as he triggered Earth Attunent, harmonizing his body and soul with the earth.

The Titans were gazing at the Earth Tribulation from a distance. They were over five hundred kiloters away from the phenonon's periphery. Yet, they could feel the gravitational pull that would paralyze them and how each teorite had the power to crush their bones.

Yet, even more impressive was how Cain began to move around the phenonon. His body seed to flow with the earth, moving in perfect synchrony as he dodged the teorites at the last second, showing flawless agility and dexterity.

Cain moved with majestic precision, dodging all the teorites as he seed to dance around the Earth Tribulation, and after almost an hour, he stopped moving. He opened his eyes as he felt the world's power begin to change again, fading from the sky and concentrating on the ground.

The next second, the dozens of thousands of teorites that had fallen from the sky began to lt into the earth as bursts of terrestrial force accumulated underground.

Cain focused on the earth, and suddenly, he turned around and sent a fist with all his strength.

"¡BOOM!"

That punch landed on the body of a massive stone figure that had lunged toward Cain, but just as he destroyed this one, dozens more erged from the ground and attacked the young man with all their power.

Cain's eyes narrowed as he saw those stone figures. He was able to destroy one of them with a single punch but could feel his arm tremble due to the imnse hardness of the humanoid.

It would not be easy to destroy them, and the gravitational pull kept hindering his movent, but Cain just took a deep breath and faced the stone figures.

"THUMP!"

Cain's heartbeat burst as he triggered Asura Form, pushing his speed and reflexes to the next level, and attacked.

"¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!" "¡BOOM!"

Every explosion was a massive stone figure shattering to pieces under Cain's punches and kicks, but every ti he destroyed one, two more would rise from the ground, making it seem they were endless.

Cain's eyes were sharp and resolute as he kept destroying the monsters, even as the skin on his fists was peeled off and bruises appeared on his legs. Hundreds, thousands, or maybe even hundreds of thousands of stone figures had lunged toward Cain, but every single one was destroyed.

Finally, after four hours, no more stone figures erged from the ground. Yet, before Cain could even take a breath, the terrain shifted.

The solid ground transford into treacherous sands that threatened to engulf Cain, and the gravitational pull beca extrely powerful.

Cain attempted to force his way out, but it was impossible, and in less than a second, everything but his neck had been subrged beneath the sand. A flash of enlightennt appeared in Cain's eyes as he reached this point and stopped fighting against the force, allowing it to subrge him.

A suffocating pressure assaulted Cain as his body was buried deeper and deeper into the ground. Instead of losing focus and falling into panic, he began to resonate his body with the more subtle aspects of the Law of Earth.

The more Cain resonated with them, the weaker the effect of the sands on him, and he reached the point that even as he was hundreds of thousands of ters underground, he felt in complete peace.

Cain's body suddenly stopped subrging deeper into the sand, and he saw how the earth began to split apart with him at the center, forming two massive walls covered in razor-sharp crystals.

The gravitational force was still present, making it impossible to fly, so the only way out of this place was to scale through those walls.

Cain did not hesitate and touched one of the crystals. Surprise appeared in his eyes as he felt that despite the hardness of his skin, the crystal still managed to make a small cut, but even more aningful was the negative emotion trying to invade his mind and ego.
