Book 11: Chapter 51: Crux (2)
Aki smiled a smile that wasn’t a smile.
“Even if you are a God, there are still some things you cannot change. The void exists above space. Many don’t understand why it is void will is a supreme law while space, despite its obvious power, isn’t. In face, space will is at times even stronger than some supreme laws, but it has no right to hold this title because it will always be beneath the void.
“The reason is simple. Space can be manipulated… it can be twisted, bent, shattered, deformed, even destroyed. However, the void will always exist. Before life existed, there was the void. When all life ceases to be, there will still be the void.”
The three of them frowned at Aki’s words, not truly understanding the scope of what he was saying.
But… if void will was so powerful, why was it that the Void Clan was so weak?
“Much like energy, the void cannot be created or destroyed, it simply exists. And, once it’s been used, it cannot be reverted to the same state it was in before in the same way energy becomes useless after it becomes heat.
“However, the void isn’t so simple as this. There is no ‘useless’ state of void. This is what makes it so mystical.”
“You’re not making any sense.” Anak shook his head. “It’s useless, it’s not useless. It can’t return to its original state, it can… Just get to the point.”
Aki sighed. “It’s like speaking to a wall… The void is the foundation of all that is. It is everything and is nothing at the same time, why are you even wasting your time trying to comprehend my words? You just need to listen to them and understand my surface meaning.
“Others might be unable to due to, but those sensitive to the void don’t need stars to navigate. Even if Emperor Sacharro managed to completely rearrange the topography of the void, it still wouldn’t matter. This is the essence of what I’m saying.”
“So you can, in fact, do it?” Anak’s gaze lit up.
“Assuming that Emperor Sacharro hasn’t destroyed the void tunnel… yes.”
“Didn’t you just say that you were certain that they still existed?!” Valen’s temper flared once more.
“And then I proceeded to explain to you how Emperor Sacharro can’t be defined by normal logic. Wouldn’t I be a hypocrite if I didn’t listen to my own words?” Aki said without care.
Valen clenched his fists, but he couldn’t rebut.
“Anyway, I don’t have much to do. I’ll just take you all there.”
The more Aki spoke, the more Anak understood just why it was Dyon’s seal had yet to flare up… In Aki’s mind, Dyon’s position in his heart stood above everything… Maybe even the Heavens themselves.
To him, even if he went all out, even if he participated in this plot, Dyon would be completely unaffected. Therefore, how could the seal recognize that Aki was doing something detrimental to Dyon? Ironically, Dyon’s own strength became a loophole in his own seal.
While Anak was thinking of this, though, Valen and Chrysanthemum were brimming with excitement. They had no idea what Aki and Anak were thinking, so they believed that this invincible Emperor Sacharro had finally showed a chink in his armor.
Everything was going according to their plan. First the enlisted the help of Anak to enter the Mortal Empire Capital City, Soul City. Only he had the cache to enter this place as both a True God and a great talent. In addition, he was the only one among them trusted enough by Dyon to do so.
Second, they found Aki. They knew making it out of Mortal Empire territory was an impossible task without special means. Their original plan was to bribe one of the members of the Array Alchemy Association into building an unregistered teleportation array for them. But, who would have thought that Anak would come up with this much better plan?
If they could use the void tunnel, the risk was even lesser, especially due to the fact Aki hated Dyon to the bone and wouldn’t sell them out lest he want to die.
Of course, it would take them at least a year to get the other side of the tunnel… But it was worth it!
This was exactly what raised the curtain on the first phase’s sixth year…
By this time, the ‘invaders’ had already been chosen their sides. One would think that Dyon’s actions would place a heavy burden on them, making many want to find them and kill them all. However, Dyon’s actions actually had the exact opposite effect.
Many weaker Clans felt that they would be helpless unless against such a powerful enemy. So, those who had aspirations of descending the battlefield immediately found trees to hug.
Young geniuses of the Nephilim, Sapientia and Transcendent Beast Alliance slowly found their umbrellas to hide and grow beneath.
The brewing storm of the Ancient Battlefield was rumbling forth with ever growing momentum. Some wanted to bury their heads and bide their time, but the era they lived in simply didn’t allow for it.
In the southern region, three mighty hegemons suddenly became four, catching the entire Ancient Battlefield off guard.
The true clash for who would hold the right to their own existence was coming.
