God Of Immortals

Chapter 141: A Mind Of Dreams [I]

"Still alive?"

"Thanks to you, martial sister. If not for you, I wouldn't be here today. You saved my life."

With a cupped fist extended forward, Ju Feng gave her a slight bow.

"Think nothing of it."

With a shrug of her shoulders, Su Ming waved away his comment, casually.

"You needed help and I helped. Simple as that."

Ju Feng shook his head in a strong conviction before staring at the sky. Light of Radia was never a simple matter. He could have easily entered the light and be on his way to reincarnation. The moment he entered the revenant's force-field, he knew he was in mortal danger. He had lost total consciousness and there were memory gaps he couldn't even fill. Those were the signs of the threshold of death. For him to recover and avoid walking the path of reincarnation was no simple thing at all.

"No martial sister, reincarnation is not as simple as that. I could have died without me even knowing it. Words alone can't express how happy and grateful I am for what you did, Shijie. A debt I hope to repay one day."

"Think nothing of it. All that matters is that you are alright now."

"And for that, I thank you, martial sister."

"Don't sweat on it. It was simply the necessary thing to do."

Something in the distance caught her attention. She turned her gaze towards it for a moment before returning her focus on Ju Feng. She could feel the scrutinizing eyes of Ju Feng as he tried to decipher the changes in her aura. With an easy smile on her face, she gave a mild shrug of her shoulders.

"I guess it's all about a higher soul's stage. Well, I have to go now, so much to do. See you later then. And, try not to die soon since you got a debt to repay."

"Thank you, martial sister. I will. See you later too."

With a smile on his face, Ju Feng headed towards the male dormitory. So, Su Ming had truly advanced as he suspected. That meant there could be benefit in death experiences, though, he would prefer not to have any death experience. The risk of reincarnation was greater than the benefit of advancement.

He entered his room and gently locked the door, securely, behind him. With the weight of the fated-death and of a living Su Ming, lifted off him temporarily, he felt himself a little tired. Falling heavily on his bamboo bed, he decided to rest a bit, before heading for Charat planet. As soon as he closed his eyes, he was transported into the world of dreams.

Just as before, Ju Feng found himself sitting on a floating cloud while observing a raging event unfolding before him. He was like a phantom presence who was observing a scene from a memory. The terrible scene he was witnessing appeared to be the continuation of the one concerning those two entities he saw before in his dreams. Two beasts of unknown origin to him but of immense power and size. One was a wyvern who was residing inside a raging cloud, while the other was a devonian armoured turtle that was staying inside the water.

Unlike the last time he was here, now, there were many spatial rifts and tears that were causing the gradual destruction of the fabrics of this world. Was this how a world could easily be destroyed? The moment he turned to observe the massive turtle who was half way submerged in the water, he was instantly absorbed into the turtle's spirit domain. In spite of it being a dreamworld, he appeared to be roiling from the intense power of the turtle. Inside this place, was the engraved memory of the ancient turtle. 

'I, Zothikos, stood there awaiting the end of my world as the raging cosmic void encircled it. Such a sad and lonely life it had been for me for billions of years. A life that was now ending by the power of the Cosmic Void Rift seal. A forbidden seal used by my ancient nemesis, Fotios, in his desperate attempt to have what never belonged to him. For billions of years, he had been a bane in my existence, a bane which I had come to accept in accordance with the laws of this universe. 

What laws of the universe?

I was never a creature of this universe. I was a voidbeast, the same as my nemesis, Fotios. During the explosion that created the Alpheron and Ominu cores, there were other reactions in the void too. The particles of matter in the void formed other cores and one of the cores formed my universe, Hypagus. A universe that was made up of many worlds. It was one Hypabeast to one world with the strongest taking the biggest world. Despite this, there was a relative peace in our universe until the coming of an extremely powerful entity alongside few other shadowy entities. This particular shadowy creature who appeared to be the leader had no particular form or variation but had a whole massive creation's core at the centre of its existence.

There was a colossal war between us and this shadowy entities that lasted many years. The Hypagus core tried as much as possible to seal them off, but they were exceedingly powerful. After many years of battle, this leading shadowy entity made a single move that eventually caused the destruction of my universe. A universe that took creation millions of years to achieve, about to be brought to total annihilation by this dangerous entity.

Some of us escaped before the total destruction of our universe. I, and a few others, decided to seek shelter in this very universe since it had energy that was similar to ours while the rest sought abode in other universes. One of the others that came with me, was Fotios. A wyvern who had his world next to mine when we were still in Hypagus.
