Chapter 1844 The White Pillar.
1844 The White Pillar.
Quantix Prime's stunned eyes were affixed on what used to be his old friend, his guardian, and the symbol of his empire.
Vibra, Krell, Timeon, Dankin, and the rest of the troops stopped whatever they were doing, their expressions were of utter horror and disbelief after witnessing the fall of the quantum realm's god.
Alas, life wasn't a musical play...
The dark creatures didn't give them a single moment to process their emotions as they continued their aggressive assault.
Only this time, it seemed to work much better as with the death of the Quantaar, everyone lost the vibrational barriers on them.
"Arghhh!"..."SQUAD 87 NEEDS BACK UP!"..."WE ARE BEING OVERWHELMED!"...
A symphony of cries and shouts filled the battlefield as everyone seemed to be struggling to survive against the infinite numbers of the dark army.
"RETREAT AS ONE!' Quantix Prime ordered at once, his expression was covered in an untold level of hatred and violence as he gazed at the foreigners' gang.
But, as a responsible leader, he knew it wasn't the time for his emotions to get the best of him.
With the shocking death of their protector, he knew that the war was already lost and there wasn't much they could do about it.
Meanwhile, Apollo and the other three unigins couldn't care less about the war.
The moment the Quantaar fell apart and exposed the cocoon, they immediately made their move to claim it!
'Quickly! The bastard has the first-move advantage!'
Aeolus shouted telepathically as he rushed straight inside the bulk of the dark army, using his divine blade to open up a path forcefully. Athena and Artemis blocked the sides and covered his back, which made it possible to pierce through the army without getting cornered!
'Idiots, you have already lost your opportunity.' Apollo sneered in ridicule, watching their useless attempts to recover the cocoon.
'The instant the cocoon was engulfed by my army, it became min...'
Before he could finish his thought, his eyes were suddenly exposed to a blinding flash of light that was bright enough that it would burn off commoners' eyes instantly.
It didn't affect Apollo at all, leaving him staring with a stupefied look at the rising pillar of light, pure and radiant, erupting skyward.
It pierced through the quantum realm with such intensity that it seemed as if a new star was being born right there on the battlefield.
This radiant column burned with a white-hot brilliance that was blinding to behold, and as it ascended, it incinerated every dark creature that was close to it!
The armies, both friend and foe, halted their advances, stunned into silence by the spectacle.
Athena, Aeolus, and Artemis could only stare in shock and wonder as the pillar of light grew in magnitude, its base centered around the cocoon.
'What the hell is this?!'
Aeolus cried out loud as he was hurled away by the shockwave produced, his partners tagging right behind him!
They had seen many unigins' rebirth processes before, but none of them were like this in the slightest.
Meanwhile, the three rulers had an entirely different reaction. They leaned closer to the scene, their divine pupils thinning with a hint of shock and disbelief.
Two rare emotions, they very seldom showed unless in very special cases. This case was more than just special, it was impossible in their eyes.
"The Divine Ascension...He is ascending to a celestial, how, how??" Amun-Ra bellowed, his voice cold, but carried an undeniable level of anger.
"I don't know...Asna's core hasn't been touched at all, I know for a fact." Medusa frowned deeply after using her senses and noticing that her little serpent was carrying its mission smoothly.
If only she could see what was going on in Asna's core or outside of it, their doubts would more or less be answered as Felix was going through the transformation of a lifetime.
A transformation far superseding the origin realm breakthrough or even his first ascension to an unigin.
The only difference from the rest was that none of them expected it…Besides one, Lilith.
'This is looking more promising by the day...' She smiled to herself, 'He is so close to the finish line, closer than anyone else...'
With many peculiar thoughts roaming in her mind, she watched as his physical form began to take shape around his spiritual form.
The seven cores were contained by the seven hearts, seemingly, each connected to a heart, but at the same time, connecting to a singular soul!
"What's going on? Isn't this technically impossible by the universal standards?" Thor exclaimed in shock, unable to comprehend what his eyes were feeding him.
The rest of the tenants were just as ignorant, no one able to give a proper answer to such a question.
It was expected, Felix had gone through hell to ascend multiple times by using a loophole, which enabled him to associate each core with an individual soul of a dragonic tail and a heart as its physical container.
But now? The universe decided to merge all seven unique cores into a sole soul. This went against its order since it implied a single unigin could be the guardian of more than twenty laws at once!
'Indeed, it should be impossible for a unigin, but Felix...' Lilith decided to help them out a bit, sharing with a faint knowing smile, 'He is no longer a unigin.'
'If he isn't a unigin, then what is he beco...Huh? Don't tell me.'
The tenants were quite sharp and managed to come to the shocking conclusion almost immediately, leaving them staring at each other in disbelief.
'I knew that a soul born from a celestial heart might result in the birth of a celestial, but to actually happen...' Lady Sphinx murmured with an astounded look, 'Even connecting the other cores to one soul...'
It wasn't like no one thought of it. It just seemed too unimaginable, like it was absurd to even dream of it.
After all, there were only four celestials in the universe and one of them wasn't even awakened yet.
But, here they were, watching Felix's transformation coming to an end.
While they were shocked by the implications, the divine white pillar wasn't visible to just the ones near it. It actually pierced through spacetime and traveled across all the known and unknown realms, dimensions, and whatnot!
Unlike the universal thunderclap, the pillar appeared in everyone's eyes regardless of their position or status. It was like a white pillar burned at the back of their retina, forcing them to stare at it even while they were asleep!
This caused chaos to arise everywhere.
Meanwhile, in the spirit realm, Lord Hades stared at the pillar with the same emotionless zombie-look expression, his thoughts unreadable on the surface.
"Little one, it seems like you are nearing your goal." He mumbled, "I can't wait for the day you dethrone those three oppressors."
The pillar spoke nothing about Felix, but Lord Hades seemed confident it was related to him. He wasn't the only one with the same feeling.
'Father!'
'Felix, is that you...'
'Ahh, what kind of uproar are you causing now.'
'Little one must be giving them hell.'
'...'
Noah, Olivia, Selphie, Nimo, Carbuncle, and many others close enough to have seen many of his miracles couldn't assist but associate this unexplainable phenomenon with him.
