Chapter 947 The Flow
Chapter 947 The Flow
"Aion of the Human Lineage is the winner!"
Venganza's words echoed across the coliseum and every corner of the Daybreak Sector.
Immediately, a burst of cheers emerged from the people watching the fight since it had been magnificent. In the beginning, Aion showed a new battle style and proved he had the power to wound his enemies without the need for counters, crushing Beelzebub.
However, the overwhelming pressure that Aion put on the Depravita helped the soul of this one to awaken a dormant power, generating an evolution of his power and the birth of the Chaos-Order Eternal Diagram.
Beelzebub's power reached a whole new level after he attained domain over the Order Concept, and they grew even more once he achieved balance with the Chaos Force.
That should have granted the Depravita a certain victory, even if this one could only continue fighting for a few minutes due to his rising soul force and cultivation about to break through to Rank 8.
Nevertheless, Aion being Aion, showed everybody the reason he had become the mightiest dark rose in the entire Daybreak Universe. He learned how to use the cosmic force that allowed him to see his opponent's movements and reinforced his hands' strikes to fix his body after every single wound received.
Beelzebub still had the upper hand in the end and was about to land a final blow that even Aion could not have healed from when his soul finally rose to Rank 8, disqualifying him from the battle and giving the victory to the Neo-Demom.
Luck was an important factor in Aion attaining victory during that battle, and this was not the first time since it also took place during his fight with Sirik and Azazel.
Had the Astral Fiend's soul endured just one second more, Aion would have lost, but things did not go that way. As for Azazel, if she had been able to deploy the illusion a few more seconds, the chains of cosmic force would have shattered, and he would have fallen unconscious.
Once was luck, two a coincidence, but three, that was skill!
Some of the Sacred Kings even questioned if that cosmic force could affect causality, altering space-time so Aion's victory would be the only path forward.
Those were just speculations, but one thing was certain. Aion dominated a power that surpassed the Nine Sacred Inheritance left behind by the Samsara Thearch, which could raise the might of his soul and body to equal that of someone with a Fourth Realm Bloodline!
Aion smiled as he heard those cheers, and it grew even wider as he saw the look of happiness on his wife and children. A minute was about to happen, and the next battle was ready to start, but he stared at the Revenge Thearch in the sky before raising his palm, asking for this one to give him a moment.
Venganza was ready to send Aion out of the battlefield, but he nodded, giving the Neo-Demon a few more minutes.
Aion did not ask for more time in the arena for the cheers, and his reason became clear once he turned to the only person with whom he had not fought yet.
Noah saw Aion's golden eyes focus on him, and he could not help but clench his fist. Before the battle of this one with Beelzebub, he had a battle plan that would have shown him a path to victory.
However, after everything Aion displayed during this last fight, Noah's plan and strategies would no longer work. The worst part was that even after seeing this one fight multiple times, he had yet to decipher anything about the true nature of that cosmic force.
"The Flow."
Aion uttered those two words as he raised his hands, and the cosmic force cloaking them became visible for everyone to see.
Noah's eyes widened as he heard that and understood that the power Aion used was something called The Flow. However, the next second he frowned as rage appeared in his heart.
Aion had never mentioned anything like that before, and the fact he did it now could be interpreted as this one looking down on Noah.
"You are too weak right now, and if we fight, there is no doubt I will win. There is no point in a fight like that. I need you to grow stronger, find a flaw in my power that you can exploit, and pressure me to the point that defeat is the only path left for me."
Aion's face was serious as he spoke, and he did not sweeten his words, making it clear that Noah was not a threat at all right now, and he could easily win the fight.
The rage in Noah's heart grew stronger, but soon a silver flame emerged in his eyes, allowing him to calm his mind, and he nodded. If the enemy wanted to give him information, he would take it and make sure this one realized just how big of a mistake that had been.
"You may be aware that all things in the universe are composed of particles that vibrate at specific frequencies. This includes the energy emitted by our bodies and souls. Even our emotions, such as anger or joy, have their own unique frequency.
Whether it's a tiny virus or an almighty overlord like the Samsara Thearch, there is a frequency for all of them. Even inorganic life, like pebbles or towering Sacred Mountains, does not escape this rule.
Every Law that forms reality and every Concept born out of the collective mind of all life forms generate a frequency."
Aion made a slight pause at this point, giving Noah a moment to process his words.
Noah's eyes had grown calm as he put all his focus on Aion's words, trying to understand what this one was saying. And he was not alone since the rest of the powerhouses in the coliseum were also paying attention.
Those frequencies that Aion mentioned were something all powerhouses could perceive thanks to the power of their souls, but that was just the first step, and everything became incredibly more complex after that.
"Once you can sense those frequencies, you must understand their connection and realize they are part of a whole. Everything in the universe and beyond is connected, no matter how powerful or weak they are.
That connection is what I call The Flow. To perceive it, you need more than a powerful consciousness or soul. You must understand the nature of primordial creation and the goal of all existence."
Aion's eyes seemed to lose focus as he spoke those words, as if the knowledge he was imparting was something that even he was in the middle of understanding.
Silence reigned as the words of the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage were something incredible. Most powerhouses could already understand that all things were connected thanks to their cultivation and the way they interact with the world, but being able to perceive that connection was entirely different.
The only ones able to understand that connection would be the Thearchs, who have risen beyond the boundaries of reality itself and could see the universe from the point of view of higher-dimensional existences.
But even they could only perceive it and not dominate it the way Aion did during all those fights.
"Using The Flow does not require excessive power. In fact, using too much force can make things more challenging, while using too little will also not be effective.
A balance between opposing forces like hardness and softness, yin and yang, anger and love is fundamental in your search for The Flow.
The human race is the one most suitable for that path since their existence results from harmony itself."
Everybody understood why someone with Aion's talent had the Human Lineage running through his veins when they heard that part. The bloodline that would have been a weakness in everybody else was one of the reasons he was so powerful.
"After understanding The Flow comes the most challenging part, learning how to harvest its power. No amount of brute force would allow you to do something like that.
You must forget about the self, empty your mind and soul of all emotion and thought, to the point that you forget who you are. At that point, your body and soul will vanish from the physical plane of existence and become one with The Flow.
Million, if not billions of years, could go by in that state, with your mind extending further into the universe, becoming omnipresent. The sensations in that state are inexplicable, but there is nothing that you desire more than to stay in that form for all eternity."
Aion's eyes flashed with a mixture of absolute joy and overwhelming fear when he mentioned that omniscient state.
None of the powerhouses, not even the Sacred Kings, could imagine entering that state of existence with willpower beneath the Fourth Realm and surviving, yet Aion clearly did it!
