Chapter 268: Way to Merge Worlds
"Are you sure it's here? All I can see is pitch darkness." Chu Xieyi asked while looking around but everything around her was deep black space. There was nothing and it was freezing cold as well. Fortunately, cold doesn't bother her that much, and also reaching the peak of the Divine Realm, she could easily breathe in this space.
"You are not looking clearly. And, just because it is an empty space, it doesn't mean you can't hide it. You just need something to reveal itself." Charles chuckled as he released his purple energy.
This energy moved around him and slowly formed a symbol. Charles raised his palm and struck the symbol which flew towards the endless space until it collided with a strange invisible barrier.
The collision creates a ripple in the empty space.
"See! That's the entry point. Let's go!" Charles pointed at the barrier and floated towards it.
"If it is hidden, then don't blame me for not seeing it. Humph! It's your father who hid it anyway." Seeing this barrier, Chu Xieyi glanced at Charles and scoffed. For a moment she thought she wasn't really good enough to sense it.
But, it turns out that thing was hidden and could only be accessed by a certain symbol. This made her angry because Charles tried to lecture her on something that she need.
'Why does she get so angry all the time? Maybe I shouldn't talk too much with her.' Charles felt bitter after hearing her complain. He quickly calmed down his mood and touched the barrier. As soon as he touched it, his hand slides inside.
But, when Chu Xieyi and Guo Yang tried to enter, they didn't succeed. They were blocked by the barrier.
"Hey, we can't enter." Chu Xieyi snorted at Charles when she got blocked.
Charles thought for a moment and passed a whip made out of his purple energy.
"Hold it, and try to come inside!"
Chu Xieyi and Guo Yang looked at each other and shook their head.
"Benefactor, you should go on your own. This is the inheritance left by your father. Even if we could come, it won't be appropriate especially when your father had put such an effort to make others unable to go. We will wait for you outside." Guo Yang spoke.
Hearing his words, Charles wanted to refuse but he found Guo Yang can't be convinced especially when he is sure of something. So, he gave up and decided to explore his father's inheritance by himself.
While he went in, Guo Yang and Chu Xieyi held each other hands and smiled.
"Let's explore the universe together!"
With a smile on their faces, both of them left.
......….
In the Saint World,
It has been three days since Qin has completely conquered the Saint World. After finishing his talk with the leaders of the five worlds, he finally went to the core of the Saint World in order to merge them.
"Are you seriously ready? I don't want to hurt you. We can do it whenever you are ready." Heaven stayed next to him while trying to confirm his strength.
Qin simply smiled and said "I wouldn't do it if I wasn't sure. You can say that I am perfectly ready for anything and everything. But of course, I still have a trick to increase my strength by several folds. So, if it comes to that, then I will be able to face them or at least escape."
"But, then what about this world?" Heaven paused for a moment and asked.
"Look! The world can be conquered later but as long as you and I survive, nothing else matters. Of course, I don't plan on losing especially when the faith of the people makes me stronger. So, don't worry too much. We can finish what we are going to start." Qin smiled and patted her head.
Feeling his palm on her head, a red blush appeared on her cheeks. Like a million years old heaven, nobody has ever patted her. Qin was the first to do so and she didn't hate this feeling.
"Alright! So, where is the core?" Qin asked as they floated inside a plain world. This world had nothing but empty grassland. It was supposed to be the center of the Saint World but he can't sense anything unusual about it.
Heaven smiled and floated in front of him. She spread her hands and said.
"This is the Core. The central part of the Saint World doesn't hold the core. It is the core. This is also the reason why Saint World's heaven was able to live even though the world was torn into pieces."
"This center world connects to every world through a space-time branch. This branch allows the Center World to absorb the energy from other worlds and use that same energy to nurture the part of Heaven of that world."
"Those worlds aren't the true world. They are just split parts of one main world so they don't possess the power to nurture Heaven. In other words, this center part is the reason why Heaven is alive in those worlds."
"The relationship between Heaven and World is the same as the relationship between Mortals and Trees. Mortals need air to survive and tree also needs air. It's just they need two different kinds of air. So, this creates a balance between these two aspects."
"Just like that, Heaven and World are balanced based on the energy. Energy has two aspects. One is consciousness and another is pure energy. Pure Energy is something that everything can absorb and energy with consciousness can't be absorbed by everyone."
"There is Sun Energy, Moon Energy, Star Energy, Life Energy, Death Energy, Time Energy, Space Energy but these kinds of energies can't be absorbed by humans. So, Heaven absorbs the overall energy of the world and spits out the energy without consciousness which is known as a Spirit Energy or Saint Energy"
"Of course, just because they are without consciousness doesn't mean just everybody can absorb it. In fact, you need to have a certain level of coordination with this energy to absorb it. As for other energies that I mentioned, these energies can indeed be absorbed by Heaven but Heaven can't absorb their consciousness."
"So, Heaven can only manipulate those energies to a certain extent. This is how I repair space, create lightning, flames, rain, wind, and do many other things. Humans aren't capable of doing so, not from their birth at least."
"Only by comprehending Dao, humans can manipulate those energies. But, I heard there are places where these energies aren't present, also called void. In the void, humans can't do anything at all. Because no time, no space, no death, no life exists there. Only by comprehending the void itself, one can survive."
"Your master told me that once we go out of this universe, we land in the void. Void is the space that keeps different universes apart. And unless you can comprehend the void or something stronger than void, you can't move there."
"Anyway, you don't need to consider these things right now. I just wanted to tell you that because you got to merge yourself with me or a part of my powers to absorb the worlds." Heaven explained.
Qin puts his hand on his chin and thought for a moment.
"So, how do I actually absorb the world?"
Heaven nodded her head and spoke "There are two steps that you must follow in order to merge these worlds. They aren't hard. The first step depends on you. As I said before, every world is connected by the Space-Time Branch. As long as this branch stays, we can't absorb those worlds."
"So, you must break those branches with your powers."
"But wait, aren't these branches what connects the world? If we break them, how can we merge them?" Qin asked.
"Actually, these branches are holding these worlds together but they are also the part of a reason why the main world can't absorb other worlds by itself. I mean we don't have to absorb it by ourselves. As long as we finish the second step, these worlds will merge on their own."
"Before I explain the second step, let me give you an example so that you can understand it better. Have you ever heard of a magnet?" Heaven asked.
Qin nodded his head.
"Magnet has two poles just like the world. If you put two magnets on the same side together then they will repel. If you put two magnets will opposite sides, then they will attract.
When the Saint World was whole, it was connected strongly and when it broke apart, it could still be connected during that destruction, the outer part of the main world and the part of other worlds that faces this world have the same pole."
"This will repel these worlds. And, as soon as the Space-Time Branch breaks, the worlds will start moving away. But at the same time, if we managed to merge our powers, I can change the structure of the main world and change the poles. After that, the main world will absorb other worlds by itself."
Hearing Heaven's explanation, Qin narrowed his eyes and said "There is one thing that I don't understand. Whenever you break something, you don't change it. Breaking the world is almost impossible to change."
"So, how? How did the main world have the same pole as the other worlds when they had been connected just a few moments ago before the destruction? It doesn't make sense. Did somebody change it?"
