After having meditate for over a month, Chaos had absorbed Essence of Demise continuously into his body only to make it destroy him from the inside. But he resisted such deadly power, only making it go over his body once more after he regenerated the wounds left by this deadly energy.
By constantly absorbing and then assimilating this energy he acquired unprecedented power, his stats began to raise easily across the days, and now they had increased by a great amount. He looked at them with satisfaction clear on his eyes, but Chaos knew this wasn't near as enough. Now that he had hit a bottleneck on his cultivation, he had to continue doing what he did best to grow stronger, eat! Eat a lot!
So, he decided to move into his next plans. He had sent clones to the other continent within this planet, the one continent known as the Wild Continent where all types of monstrous beasts roamed around. He sensed that there were some fragments of the Forbidden One lying around there, so he was going to grab them while he could.
Amidst the vast dark wilderness of this continent, there were many beasts roaming around, but they were of no importance for Chaos as they were weaklings. Divine beasts only appeared inside divine realms and not in the wild, so he didn't cared anymore about these weak creatures, although he still caught and ate the interesting new ones he found, but no skills were acquired.
While cultivating, he had spread his clones across this continent, and he ha shaped his clones in all sorts of shapes and sizes by using the power of his Fragments of the Forbidden One, they looked more like monstrous beings than his own appearance, so they were able to easily meld with the wilderness and the other grotesque creatures that also roamed the wilderness.Through his search for the fragments, he explored all sorts of places and environments… massive glaciers a with frozen beasts of antiquity, massive black sludges that made entire oceans, despite being living organisms, and large floating islands in the sky that harbored ancient temples and dungeons filled with undead.
However, in such wondrous and heroic journey, he never found fragments! Until he found a massive hole in the middle of the continent, this hole was referred as the Pit of the Fallen God. And it was a pit generated in ancient times when a godly being fell from the skies.
Or so was what it was said to be… but it could just be a myth.
As Chaos exited his room and went to have dinner with his family, a large part of his mind was exploring this enormous and abyssal pit with dozens of monstrous clones. It felt as if he were playing a video game and administrating many units at the same time, all of them were exploring this new and undiscovered area.
Some of the clones were attacked by new types of beasts that roamed these areas, mostly all Pseudo Demi Deity Realm, some were at the peak though, but none of them was a real threat, the clones of Chaos were obviously weaker than him, but were still as strong as Rank 1 Gods at the very least. Their power was enough to smash any threat that came in front of them without any issues.
As they massacred gigantic black forms coming from the holes in the abyss, deadly titanic bats the size of mountains that made storms of winds whenever they flapped their wings, and deadly quadrupedal, black-scaled sharks, the clones crawled down below into the pit of darkness, reaching the darkest parts of this abyssal lair.
They reached down and down, as they found streams of powerful divine energy leaking slowly into the surface, whatever was down there, it was strong, and they clearly felt a lot of Fragments too, perhaps Chaos would be able to break through his bottleneck if he absorbed a lot of fragments too, so there was this great possibility.The clones rushed forward incessantly, as they ran for many kilometers deep, while fighting against abyssal and horrendous creatures that existed down here, living off the rich energy nutrients that leaked from this hole… but well, they were now all being slain to death without exception.
The clones devoured these monsters for sustenance and continued their journey. Chaos' mind was concentrated into this research, even as he was now in the library reading about various things such as crafting.
And then, Chaos stopped reading as he squinted his eyes.
"There it is… But what is this?"
He glanced at the scene in awe, he had just found out there was something quite bizarre in front of him. It looked like some kind of humanoid form engraved in the ground, covered by dirt and many wondrous runes.
It was also emanating a strong dark presence; the fragments were resting there. Whatever this being was, Chaos was going to eat it without exception.
After reading, Chaos decided to quickly prepare to go, he only decided to go out with Abyss, Belphegor, Erebus, and Rot, so the later one could have a change of pace and met the outside world.
FLASH!
The group flew across the heavens at an incredible speed, in just a few minutes, they crossed dozens of kilometers and in a few more minutes, hundreds.
They reached the area of their destiny incredibly fast, the pit of darkness greeted their sight, this darkness seemed inviting and abyssal all at the same time, rather malicious and evil… they were able to tell as much.
"So this is the area, huh?" wondered Abyss.
"Interesting, this is indeed a pit where a being of great power fell, my bones are rattling by sensing its presence!" said Belphegor.
"Papa, are you going to eat it?" asked Erebus.
"Yes, I am, if possible, I will eat it all, entirely, even the corpse." Said Chaos.
"So lucky, Chaos-sama…!" said Rot. She also wanted to eat rotten corpses.
The party flew down below into the darkness, reaching deeper areas in an instant…
