Chapter 80 of "The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order" begins revealing exciting developments: 80 8% marrow washing Cain did not waste a second before circulating his Fiend Devourer Cultivation... Don’t stop now!

80 8% marrow washing Cain did not waste a second before circulating his Fiend Devourer Cultivation Technique to handle the sudden rush of energy that flooded his entire body. He was doing his best, but there was simply too much energy, and he could not use it fast enough. It made sense that Cain would face such a problem. After all, the Dragon Blood Grass was a cultivation resource meant for Level 7 Wave Warriors. Those were individuals with much higher energy consumption than someone at Level 2. If Cain did not do something fast, a significant amount of the energy flooding his body would begin to disperse. That was something he could not accept. Using the Blood Refinement Art could help Cain handle that excess energy, but he was already focusing all his mental capacities on the Fiend Devourer Cultivation Technique. Determination appeared on Cain’s face as he took a deep breath and focused on his brain, trying to perceive the Ego Eternal Matrix. Although he was still far from achieving real control over his Ego Wave, now that he knew its location and principles, Cain found it much easier to use its power. Of course, since he had yet to reach the Ego Eternal Path of Power’s First Realm, there would be side effects, but that was not something that worried him. After a few seconds, a red light appeared in Cain’s eyes, and everything around him became slower. His speed of thought and cognitive abilities rose to a new level, allowing him to achieve what a typical Level 2 Wave Warrior could never do. Cain made his Fiend Devourer Cultivation Technique revolve at an even higher speed, driving even more energy into his Rebirth Heart, pushing his cultivation higher. At the same time, the Blood Refinement Art took all the excess energy, allowing Cain to temper his flesh and blood. With both top-tier techniques working in conjunction, not even an iota of the Dragon Blood Grass’ energy went to waste. Cain felt how the energy reached deeper and deeper into his bones, all the way to the marrow. For Cain, it was as if hundreds of tiny needles pierced his bones. It povoked excruciating pain, making the process harder, but he kept focus and revolved both techniques with even greater force. ..... A black and foul substance soon emerged through Cain’s pores. The pollution entered his body through the air he breathed from the sky and the food he consumed from the ground, and now he was finally beginning the process of purging it. Seeing the black substance leave his body only pushed Cain’s determination higher. Blood leaked from his ears and nose due to mental stress, but he refused to take things slower. According to the information in the Fiend Devourer Cultivation Technique, marrow washing was classified according to percentages. It was impossible to eliminate all the body’s pollution in the first one, so a Wave Warrior must go through it multiple times. That is why the sooner you begin, the better your cultivation prospects will be. If a Wave Warrior achieved a Flawless Marrow State, meaning they had completely purged all pollution from their body, they would have built a foundation capable of driving their cultivation to the Peak Wave Champion rank without a problem. However, the Flawless Marrow State was incredibly difficult to achieve, with geniuses from powerful Noble Families finding it almost impossible to obtain without great lucky chances. The red light in Cain’s eyes would vanish from time to time as he stopped using the Ego Wave. The mental distress was too great, forcing him to shut it down for a few moments before triggering it again, or else he would pass out from the pain. That meant there would be small windows of time when the Blood Refinement Art stopped working, but the energy loss was minimal. If it were up to Cain, nothing would be lost, but he could not achieve perfection in every task. He was not a divine existence after all. Finally, after an hour of excruciating pain and feeling that his head would split in two, Cain consumed all the Dragon Blood Grass’ energy and could rest. Cain wanted nothing more than to jump into his bed and go to sleep, but his enhanced sense of smell could not tolerate the black substance spread all over his body. He dashed to the bathroom and began to wash his body. It took him over an hour to clean every spot. When he looked into the mirror after that, he almost found it hard to recognize the person in it. All his hair was gone, and his skin was like a newborn’s. Although somewhat comical, Cain could not stop smiling, as the feeling of freshness in his body was overwhelmingly relaxing. As soon as Cain’s body touched the bed, he fell asleep. The mental and physical pressure was too much, and he needed to rest before anything else. Cain slept for more than ten hours, a very long time considering that thanks to the strength of his body, he needed less than half of that to be fully alert during the day. The first thing Cain did after waking up was figuring out his current marrow-washing percentage. There were special facilities that could help Wave Warrior do that, but he had a tool capable of achieving that engraved in his soul. “System, show me my current marrow-washing percentage.” Like always, the Absolute Life Form System carried out Cain’s command without delay. [Scanning Vessel’s marrow. ... ... Marrow washing: 8% completion] Although 8% sounded very small, Cain could not stop smiling when he saw that number. A 4% completion was considered very good for your first marrow washing, with 6% something only geniuses could achieve. As for 8%, that was a feat reserved for the best of the best. Cain’s talent in the Astral Rebirth Path of Power was good but far from exceptional. However, using his Ego Wave allowed him to undergo marrow washing using the Fiend Devourer Cultivation Technique and Blood Refinement Art. This feat only made the desire for Cain to thrive in the Ego Eternal Path of Power even greater. “System, scan me.” [Scanning Vessel. — Name: Cain Laurifer Race: Godslayer Humankind Path of Power: Astral Rebirth (Level 2 Wave Warrior) Lineage: Lightning Lupus Wave Talent: Low Tier 4 –> Middle Tier 4 — Stats: Strength: 0.26–>0.27 Agility: 0.32–>0.32 Vitality: 0.33–>0.38 Wave: 0.28–>0.31 — Destiny Force: 157.2] Waves of shock assaulted Cain as he saw the information granted by the system. First was the rise of his Wave Talent to the Middle Tier 4. There was no fundamental change in his bloodline, but marrow washing improved the ability of his body to draw Life Wave. Then came the boost in his stats. The last time he checked them was a week ago, yet it rose so much, especially his vitality. Cain figured out it had to do with a combination between his marrow washing and the fact it was the first time he had used a treasure like the Dragon Blood Grass. He was sure that while the other two slivers of red grass would help his body, they would not have such an impressive effect. Finally, the greatest shock came from his Destiny Force, which had increased almost two-fold. It did not take a genius to figure out the reason behind such a massive improvement. ‘Even though Lord Zarak had yet to formally take me as a discipline, I am under his protection. That made my background, which was virtually non-existent, rise to the sky.’ The background was an important factor in an individual’s destiny, and Cain now had a very powerful one. It would be easy for Cain to use part of that Destiny Force to fix the emotional instability, but he did not do it before, much less now. Fighting his instinctive desire and keeping a cold head would help Cain’s willpower. Cain could still use the Destiny Force to improve his bloodline by using [Basic Genetic Enhancement], but he did not let his sudden wealth blind him. “Apex, how do I improve the tools of the system’s modules?” The System Spirit had told him many times before that his [A.I. Chip Module] would improve along with the force of his soul, but he never said that the same thing would happen with his other modules like the [Genetic Coder Module]. “Other than the [A.I. Chip Module] that will grow with your soul, you must improve the other modules using Destiny Force.” Cain’s eyes narrowed when he heard that answer. It was clear to him now that he should only use Destiny Force when absolutely necessary. “Why did you not tell me that before?” “Why should I? I am not your babysitter. If you are too stupid to ask questions and prefer short-term benefits instead of looking at the bigger picture, that is your problem.” Cain could only sight as he heard that very Apex-like answer. The System Spirit would not stop him from making mistakes.
