Chapter 724: Higher than the Prima Universe
“Singularity is how my kind refers to the Story’s Protagonist.”
Ezequiel was confused by those words, something the Lord of Emptiness could see.
“Hahaha, sorry about that. My perception of reality and the universe is different from yours. First of all, allow me to introduce myself properly. I am Pan Gu. As for the title Lord of Emptiness…”
Pan Gu slightly paused after that as he focused on Ezequiel with a smile.
“That is not actually a title, but a race, our race. You and I are part of the Lords of Emptiness.”
Ezequiel was surprised when he heard that. He knew that obtaining the Gu and Pan Inheritances had changed him, but the fact that he became a Lord of Emptiness was a shock. Nevertheless, it only made the questions in his mind grow.
Pan Gu saw the confusion growing in Ezequiel’s mind and waved his hand, teleporting them into what seemed to be a raging ocean of multicolored forces.
Ezequiel felt he was suffocating. He could not breathe or think, and the pressure of the forces around him was about to crush him.
Luckily, Pan Gu put a hand over the Supreme Neo-Demon’s shoulder, protecting him from the forces and stabilizing his chronoception and proprioception.
“This is the Emptiness. The crib of our race. Since you are a Lord of Emptiness, your flesh and blood were able to endure its corrosive power. Still, you are too weak and can not adapt to a place without space or time. You cannot truly see your surroundings and possibly only perceive raging colored forces.”
Ezequiel was still trying to catch his breath as he heard Pan Gu’s words. He focused on the surroundings, but no matter how hard he attempted, everything remained the same.
“You will see it once your existence surpasses the laws and you enter the Realm of Truth.”
The Supreme Neo-Demon turned to Pan Gu and was surprised to see melancholy in his eyes.
“We, Lords of Emptiness, are born as Hegemons. Our power is immense, and we can wander the Emptiness without worry.” Pan Gu waved his hand again, bringing him and Ezequiel back to the Sacred Trial.
The Supreme Neo-Demon saw the world around him change, showing him the Emptiness again, but this time it was an illusion.
Immense amounts of those raging multicolored forces began to concentrate in a single point, and after what seemed to be billions of years, a life form was born.
Ezequiel could see that Pan Gu was showing his birth. There was confusion in the Lord of Emptiness as he looked at his surroundings, but he was not alone for long.
A few minutes after his birth, other life forms similar to him approached Pan Gu. It was at that moment that the illusion froze.
“I was born utterly alone, but my race did not let me experience that loneliness for long. The other Lords of Emptiness taught me about the Emptiness, how to grow, and we explored all its wonders.” Pan Gu’s smile showed sadness as he looked at those Lords of Emptiness that came to receive him.
“Unfortunately, not even the greatest of us can defy the purpose of our existence, and one by one, they all left.”
Ezequiel’s eyes narrowed as he heard all of that. By how Pan Gu explained it, the purpose of the Lords of Emptiness involved a tremendous personal sacrifice.
“As my brethren did with me, I received and educated the new Lords of Emptiness until my time finally came.”
The illusion changed, and now Ezequiel saw Pangu standing alone in the Emptiness.
He adopted a solemn expression before clasping his hands, making the Emptiness tremble and channeling those raging multicolored forces into his body.
Ezequiel had experienced the power of those multicolored forces, and just a stream of them was more than he could handle, yet Pan Gu drew endless oceans into himself.
Pan Gu’s eyes grew cold as he looked at his surroundings and saw the billions of creatures charging at him.
The Supreme Neo-Demon recognized some of them as Outlandish Beast of Emptiness, but there were others with much greater power in that stampede.
“Hmph!” Pan Gu sneered as he saw the countless monsters coming at him.
He attacked without mercy, killing thousands with every move and devouring their corpses. However, no matter how many he killed, more and more came.
As the battle continued, more wounds appeared in Pan Gu’s body, and it seemed he would not last for long.
Just as those creatures were ready to give the Lord of Emptiness a decisive blow, this one showed a cold smile before exploding, taking all of them down with him.
Despite being an illusion, Ezequiel’s eyes glowed with amazement as he saw the might of that explosion and how it managed to alter the Emptiness.
Order appeared in all that chaos as a massive structure came to be. It was full of heavenly bodies, and there was a matrix that stabilized it.
Ezequiel’s eyes glowed with enlightenment as he saw all of that, and he finally understood the starting point of everything.
“The Lords of Emptiness are the ones that create the universes. That is your purpose.”
“That is right. The Emptiness creates us so that we can create universes.” Pan Gu nodded to Ezequiel’s words and proceeded to answer the original question.
“According to my brethren, the essence of each universe is that of a story. Countless events happen in every Epoch, all in the quest of raising one unique life form. We are currently in the Ninth Epoch, and finally, one has appeared.”
Ezequiel contemplated Pan Gu’s words for a moment before speaking.
“So the universe creates the Singularity?”
Pan Gu immediately shook his head.
“You could not be more wrong. No universe can create a Singularity as that would be a paradox.”
The Lord of Emptiness waved his hand and made the image of a man with three eyes appear in front of them.
“Master!” Ezequiel immediately recognized the image.
“The one you refer to as Master was born as a simple life form with nothing special. However, he never stops advancing and growing stronger.” Pan Gu’s voice carried a deep sense of respect and even admiration as he spoke.
“No challenge could defeat him, and nothing could keep him down. He kept raising his destiny until this one became higher than the Prima Universe. Now, he is the sun, and everything else orbits around him. That is why he became the Singularity, the Story’s Protagonist.”
