1843 Burning Through Its Lifeforce.
Felix could understand the vision collapsing after its conclusion, but it shouldn't have brought down the dreamworld with it.
That's because it implied the end of his dream and slumber, which shouldn't be possible when he still needed plenty of time before his soul recovered.
'Something must have happened on the outside.' Felix showed a solemn look as he helped accelerate the dreamworld's destruction.
When he opened his eyes, he was stunned to find himself not in Asna's core, but within a massive pebble-like celestial shimmering barrier…Even the consciousness ocean underneath was glimmering with a hint of golden luster.
"Is this my new soul...It can't be." Felix mumbled as he gazed around in a daze, feeling like he had entered the holy grounds.
Felix had this reaction only once when he first entered Asna's core.
When his eyes landed on the ceiling, he found that the soul barrier was still incomplete...The very top of the pebble-like dome required just a bit more to connect the entire barrier.
This made Felix realize that the rebirth phase wasn't finished yet, which explained why his personality was still the same.
But, Felix paid no attention to this at the moment. He swiftly hopped to Asna's core and joined the tenants, finding them also losing their marbles trying to explain what was happening to him.
"Felix!" Candace exclaimed out loud immediately after seeing him.
Felix gave her a slight nod and went to sit with the tenants at the central table, his expression as serious and confused as it could be.
"Based on your expression, it seems like you have no idea what happened too." Lady Sphinx disclosed calmly, skipping greetings.
"I don't know if it's related or not, but I saw a new vision related to the birth of the quantum realm and the Quantaar, the Vibronoxians' guardian." Felix shared.
"A new vision?" Thor raised an eyebrow in surprise, his reaction shared by the rest.
"See for yourselves."
Felix flicked his finger and shared a summarized version of what he witnessed in the dreamland.
When the tenants watched what occurred, their reaction and arising questions were more or less the same as Felix's.
However, before they could discuss them, all of them switched their gazes to the sky. Their senses, which were blocked completely by the cocoon, suddenly felt like they could slither through the blockage.
It was like finding a tiny hole in a wall to peek from.
Everyone glanced at each other for a split second, and then swiftly sent their combined senses through the cocoon, desiring to know what was going on outside at last.
When their senses pierced through the other side, expecting to find themselves in either Commander Bia's possession or hidden somewhere.
Not in their wildest dreams would they have predicted the shocking scene painted before their eyes.
Millions of misty strings attached to the cocoon while it was inside a massive dark bat-like creature, its skin moving disgustingly akin to millions of little bags squishing at once.
"What...the...hell...is...this..."
Thor's reaction was shared by all, none of them seemed to have figured out what was happening immediately.
Felix, on the other hand, picked up on a familiar feeling like he had been here before. When his eyes scanned the entire creature, it finally hit him.
His heart skipped a beat while his eyes widened to the limit as dots started connecting in his mind akin to fireworks going off.
While the time spent in the vision might have passed quickly, Felix had felt and gone through everything the Quantaar had experienced.
When Felix saw those misty strings rushing to the cocoon and being absorbed by the stone of reality, he understood exactly what the Qauntaar was doing.
'Quantaar...Is that you?' Felix spoke through vibrations, his voice carried a tint of emotions in it.
The moment it heard his voice, the Quantaar released a soft vibrational noise that made absolutely no sense in Felix's mind. He couldn't decipher what he was trying to communicate, but he could sense the emotions in it.
It was of happiness, reverence, and a pet-like joy.
"What's going on Fel..."
Felix interrupted Candace with an extended palm and continued sending vibrational messages to Quantaar, asking him about the situation.
Quantaar answered him by opening a small hole through Apollo's dark army that swarmed it entirely, creating a wall thicker than the tallest skyscraper in the realm.
The moment Felix picked up on the slight breach, he released his weakened senses through it. The first thing that came into his eyes was Apollo, standing proud with a cold expression. Then, the three unigins awaiting at a decent distance, already using their peak divine forms, awaiting the best opportunity to intervene.
Last but not least, the Vibronoxian and Chronowalker's armies were situated at a distance, dealing with their own fair share of dark creatures.
His senses might be weak, but he managed to scan every face across the entire battlefield, making him recognize familiar faces.
Thus, when he saw Athena, Aeolus, and Artemis, he realized that the three rulers must have found out what happened in the tower somehow and sent them to retrieve his cores.
At the same time, the unigins all picked up on Felix's gaze washing over them, making them narrow their eyes in focus instantly.
"He is in there, and he is awake." Athena uttered with a solemn tone.
"Aaaaa, I don't like this, I don't like this at all." Artemis already started getting cold feet, truly terrified by Felix.
"His consciousness is awake, but the rebirth process hasn't concluded yet." Aeolus shared, his voice just as serious, "We have to get through this monster before it concludes."
It seemed like Apollo realized the same, increasing his firepower by assisting his dark army personally.
The three unigins glanced at each other once and swiftly joined in by removing the divine field and using powerful attacks to break through the Quantaar's barrier.
Boom! Boom!...
Apollo accepted their assistance in silence, as he had no interest in allowing Felix's rebirth without first putting him under his mercy. The last time he trusted him, he refused to awaken his dormant wisp.
With their combined forces, it did seem like it had accelerated the Quantaar's barrier destruction; weaknesses and didn't succeed attempts to repel the attacks were more recurring.
When Felix saw this, even when he didn't have the full picture yet, he knew that the Quantaar wasn't going to make it for long.
It might falter before his soul completed, which would leave him exposed to the wolves!
'Sh*t, what can I do?'
Felix had no time to even seek out the tenant's assistance, focusing his entire attention on finding a solution.
Alas, even with his incredible wits and foresight, he failed to come up with anything...That last 1% might seem like not much, but it was everything.
The moment it was completed, it signified the birth of a new soul and the body would follow along.
While Felix was contemplating with clear agitation for answers, the Quantaar seemed to have observed on his disturbed emotions by sensing the frequencies.
The Quantaar focused on calming him with a soothing tune despite the fact it was the one being beaten up and down.
'Quantaar...You.'
The tune did calm Felix's emotions, but at the same time left him stunned.
Without explaining itself, the Quantaar suddenly started burning through its life force and energy like there was no end to its reserve.
Both resources were sent to the cocoon, doubling the number of the misty strings instantly and causing the stone of reality to start shimmering as bright as the moon in a clear night sky!
When Felix noticed his soul barrier picking up on its pace again, edging closer and closer to establishing the connection, he sensed his heart tighten up immediately.
He wasn't dumb, with all the information in his possession, he recognized that the Quantaar was keeping itself alive at all costs for the sake of this very moment.
While the rest of its species died after fulfilling their sole purpose, it kept waiting for him, waiting for the day, when he would need that same life force to save him.
Felix didn't know if it was a duty given to it by the universe's consciousness, or if it was surviving for the sake of helping him one last time, helping its creator.
Whatever it was, Felix tightened his fists tightly as he watched his soul converge at last under the soothing tune that had never stopped playing...
But alas, the music had to stop eventually, and when it did, the last remaining drop of Quantaar's life force was devoured by the stone of reality.
Outside, the ancient Quantaar that had lived ever since the dawn of time, creator of an entire realm, father to many quantum natives, and a protector to the Vibronoxian empire, had fallen at last. Devoured by the dark creatures like it was nothing but another meal to them...
The moment its corpse disintegrated, the dark creatures rushed to envelop the gleaming white cocoon, like moths fluttering to the sun...
