Chapter 572: Chains of Order and Heavenly Sacred Doctrine (1/2)

'Getting the 'Chains of Order' to descend shouldn't be too difficult for me. It's the 'Sacred Heavenly Doctrine' that I should look out for.' Raven murmured inwardly.

'The Heavenly Laws won't mind the Chain's of Order but the same can't be said for the Heavenly Sacred Doctrine. Ah, I hope it wouldn't be too unreasonable.' He thought while having a despondent expression.

The people behind him can't see his face which was fortunate since if they did, they'd probably doubt their decisions.

What Raven's about to do is definitely dangerous and challenging even for him. Raven had little to no prior experience with playing with the Heavenly Laws before, the most he did was to observe it and try to uncover its secrets - even that was a scary experience. Still, that was a bit milder compared to what he's about to do.

If before he was just observing from afar, this time Raven would really interfere. One wrong move and Raven might be exiled from the Divine Realm or worse, die.

The Heavenly Laws of the Divine Real, is literally why the Divine Realm still exists up to this day. Without it, there will be no Divine Realm at all, less to say about its citizens.

As the lifeline of the Divine Realm, it upholds the balance and order. One could even say that it is the overseer of all life in the Divine Realm. Such an important entity of course holds incredible power. Even if Raven had the guts to play with it, that doesn't mean that he's confident about his chances of getting out unscathed, even with his Master's protection.

The Chains of Order are the tools that allow the Heavenly Laws to keep the power balance in the Divine Realm. Anything that is deemed as a variable will eventually have to face the Chains of Order. The chains will imprison them and suppress them to the point where they won't be able to upset the balance.

Getting the Chains of Balance to descend is simple to Raven. He wouldn't even break sweat doing it. And even though it is a tool that the Heavenly Laws used, Raven's not scared to mess with it since, just like what he said, he's going to use against foreign abominations anyway. Who knows, maybe he won't even need to coax or force the Chains of Order to do his bidding, they might even do it themselves.

The problem is the Sacred Heavenly Doctrine...

Raven shook his head to ignore the troublesome distractions on his mind. He then summoned the Brush of Wisdom and began drawing runes.

Raven put on his outmost effort to draw the rune as neatly and as accurate as he could. Once he was done, the Rune blazed with a golden brilliance which caught the attention of the people behind him.

As soon as the rune was born, the skies rumbled fiercely. The clouds roiled and from the empty space, several humongous chains descended from the sky. Each was filled with diagrams and mysteries pertaining to the Heavenly Laws itself. A boundless and timeless aura suffused from the chains as they trashed around the boundless fields of Red Spider Lilies.

Raven evaded the chains as best as he could while the Sect Master, his wife and Elder Fallon remained standing as this had nothing to do with them.

As he was evading the chains, the seals imprisoning the Four Horsemen suddenly trembled. It began releasing a thick and nauseating stench of death and decay. An ominous aura leaked out of the chains, forming a silhouette of an enormous skull that seems to be roaring at the Chains of Order itself.

”Great. And here I thought I had to coax this chains to attack but it seems that it's no longer needed. Don't go blaming me now, you guys provoked it.” Raven snorted.

And just like what he was expecting, as soon as the skull emerged, the Chains of Order shook and immediately slithered towards the seal. The chains released an archaic aura which neutralized the aura of the skull and destroyed it in one go.

Then, the chains sensed the seals. When that happened, the chains shrunk in size, appearing like a set of rusted chains. It then began coiling around the seals, linking each one together.

Once the four seals were linked, the chains released a powerful hum which was filled with timeless profundities. Everyone saw how the seals began repairing itself at a speed visible to the naked eye. It didn't stop a full recovery either. It was fortified thanks to the power of the Chains of Order.

Now, even Empyreans could only dream about breaking this seal...

”Great...” Raven murmured, ”That's half of the work done. Now, onto the really troublesome part.”

Raven could feel the thrashing of the Horsemen inside the seal. If this happened earlier, then he would've been worried but now that the deed was done, these things can only dream about escaping the seal. No matter what they, they won't be breaking this seal at all.

*OooooOoooooOoo*

A loud and archaic roar sounded from beneath them. Everyone was alarmed as they saw he ground underneath them shaking.
