Chapter 486 The Origin Flame.
The fourth consciousness complained and complained. It kept mentioning their mistake about the youngest vermin to become a realm lord. It swore of how it will smother the good-for-nothing vermins and put an end to their shenanigans in the void universe. Then it suddenly stopped cursing at them.
"Wait a minute." It said.
Then it went through the records again. It scrolled through the information of the youngest vermin to become a realm lord and Legion.
"They belong to the same realm tree? This is a conspiracy. These vermins are scheming to destroy the void universe. This is all your fault. I hate you." He said hastily before rushing away.
The three consciousness sighed in relief. They know the fourth consciousness is rushing to make plans to eliminate the two troublemakers. But they are just glad that he is gone. They can\'t do anything about his enmity with the inhabitants of the void universe and neither do they want to. They have done their part and that\'s that.
"That makes 61 trillion."
"321 billion."
"735 million."
"793 thousand."
"And 268 times now."
"At least."
"He is gone."
"We have peace."
That is the latest count for the number of times the fourth consciousness has expressed its hatred for the three consciousness. It hates them a lot. Those are just the number of times that it has given voice to its opinion of them.
It is moments like this that they wished the creator of the universe was around. If he/she were around, then they would have been able to heal the damage to the universe without any problem. Then they wouldn\'t have had to give Legion something to annex the singularity of possibilities.
It all ended well for the void universe anyway. The process of fixing the singularity has begun and will end with or without Legion. The universe will be stable and that\'s all that matters.
Back To Legion.
Their consciousness was battered and bruised by being in the presence of the four consciousness. The pressure of the four\'s existence threatened to smolder his existence. Then something was attached to them and they were tossed out abruptly without care. It was not a pleasant experience. Both his entry and exit were done without care for his well-being.
Then a fire started in Legion-1\'s soul. He is the true Origin god and the one most connected to the law matrix of the void universe so he is the one to bear the spark of origin flames. It started as a spark but quickly became a flame that used the law fragments from the concept of life that Gehaldirah used to become an Origin god as kindling to burn.
The fire then spread to the other souls through the soul sphere including Helios\' supercompressed existence. The flames entered the singularity of infinite possibilities and joined in the tussle going on between Chaos and Order.
Then there was a big bang. The singularity of infinite possibilities exploded outwards. It is the most painful thing that any Legion has ever felt. It felt like their consciousness had fractured because it is being put through a blender and roasted at the same time. But it isn\'t over. The ordeal continued.
The tides of the explosion brought with it a sudden force. The force threatened to overwrite anything and everything, including Legion. The force spread to the other souls immediately. It set their souls on fire when it found it lacking. That\'s only because they are also eternal. If they were not, then they would have been overwritten and turned into more flames.
This sudden force didn\'t affect Legion-9\'s soul because of the divine flame. It also didn\'t affect Legion-3\'s soul because of the Chaos flame it found there. Instead, the force pulled these two flames toward Helios\'s soul. It wanted to collapse back to a singularity but these two flames are anchoring it and prevented it from collapsing.
So it started to pull them. Except their souls are not pushovers. They refused to move. They have eternal souls too. Aeternus has the Authority of chaos and a soul as powerful as that of an Origin god, he refused to let go of his flames. The tree father has the Celestial Authority of Life and perpetual immortality, he also used the strength of his soul to refuse to let go.
The three forces entered a tug of war. On one side is the force of possibilities powered by the origin flame from 6 sources and on the other side are the Chaos flame and Divine flame powered by two 2 sources. Helios is the fulcrum of the struggle, the base of the tug of war. His fate hangs in a balance and so does the fate of the others. If they lose to the force of possibilities then their existence will be overwritten to save the universe. They will have paid for their mistake by sacrificing themselves.
The two sources are supposed to lose but Aeternus and the tree father have Authority and powerful souls to use their Authority. None of the other clones are as powerful as them apart from Legion-1. Legion-1 is on the other side of the fulcrum and is also helping to keep the balance. He is the original source of the origin flames so he is using it to undermine the force of possibilities. So the two sides are in a stalemate. They have formed a sort of equilibrium.
The situation can\'t remain like this forever. The singularity has become the force of possibilities but it wants to collapse and wink out of existence after being destabilized by the origin flame within it. But the Origin flames also found something it wants to combine within their connected souls. It wants to combine with the divine and Chaos flames. Something had to change. One side has to give up.
Something did change. Time brings change. Something that was supposed to occur instantly was being dragged out because of the unwillingness of the immortal souls. It allowed for change.
