BXBX NOVEL Chapter 655 - Inner Cosmos
---
"...someone interfered. That\'s probably the best conclusion I can come up with in my situation." Raven murmured followed by a sigh.
The strange changes on his body were things that won\'t happen unless he willed it or done by someone else. Him being able to endure the clash of Laws thrown in to the mix just convinced him even more.
One has to know that Raven achievements in laws are spectacular. Reaching the 3rd Concepts for both Laws he gained enlightenment from with the mere strength of a former Saint Knight is something unheard of even with Divine Realm\'s standards.
For someone to reach his achievements, they will usually require a higher realm in cultivation and longer time. Raven didn\'t think that his achievements were praiseworthy though, after all he got so many advantages that if he weren\'t able to reach this stage, he might as well call himself useless.
It wasn\'t really a big deal to him that someone has to interfere though, he just thought that it would\'ve been nicer if they at least showed themselves to him so that he can thank them properly. But he also thought that whoever helped him this time might\'ve done this in purpose...maybe it\'s not yet time for them to meet. At least that\'s what he would like to think.
"...anyhow, this is rather peculiar." Raven shook his head and decided to focus on what\'s in front of him.
"I didn\'t know that something like this was possible - no, I should\'ve known really. I mean, the laws practically shown up as \'planets\' originally. Additionally, a Cosmos is the amalgamation of Laws at work, Divine Realm functions the same way as well. So if my core could replicate something like that, then something like this should naturally be possible too."
In this area, Raven has to admit that he completely ignored it. Back then, he thought that his Inner Cosmos is nothing more than the central hub for his Cosmic Energy. Sure, it does have functions like being able to store objects and living beings but beyond that, Raven did nothing to actually understand it.
Well, he did say that the Ancient Constellations appearing within his Cosmos was worth investigating but like what was established earlier, he completely forgotten about this matter altogether. Him being busy with the affairs of the sect shouldn\'t be an excuse either since he has Avatars to use for that matter.
"Well, that needs to change then..." Raven decided.
He expressed his silent gratitude to whoever helped him and pointed him at this direction by focusing his thoughts on his core. Sinking his consciousness within, he opened his eyes to witness the magnificent view of his Inner Cosmos.
Streaks of milky roads following a swirling pattern, no matter how many times Raven saw it, it\'s beauty never ceased to impress him. However, Raven didn\'t really go here to admire the beauty of his Inner Cosmos. He\'s here to unravel it\'s mysteries.
Raven dispersed his consciousness and penetrated every inch of the Cosmos. Despite Raven\'s soul recovery, doing this was a bit challenging. Nevertheless, Raven still as time and he didn\'t want to waste it. Plus, he found this activity good to get used to his fully recovered soul.
"...let\'s see." Raven\'s voice echoed within the Inner Cosmos, thanks to him scattering his consciousness around, he was nothing more than a disembodied voice here but his will remained intact and in no danger of dispersing here since this was his personal domain.
Raven\'s control over all the facets of his existence could only be described as immaculate. Especially with his fully recovered soul. He could see every single crumb that is present within his Inner Cosmos. Not only that, he could also feel the level of connection he has with everything he had around here. But...well, he\'s not perfect. He admits that he completely became complacent and neglected this part of him, that\'s why he making up for it now.
"Wow, this is weird." Raven\'s amused voice echoed once again.
Whilst he did this with the expectations that it wouldn\'t be easy, it was really enlightening just how much he neglected this part of him after all.
The difficulty of his current mission goes way past the \'wouldn\'t be easy\' category. It was downright confusing...
First and foremost, it was already established that a Cosmos; much like the Divine Realm itself, is the result of Laws at work. The fundamental functions and the result of Law mutations is what gave birth to land, rivers, elements, planes, stars and eventually a whole cosmos.
He always thought that his Inner Cosmos was merely replicating that but looking at it now...there is so much more to this.
This place being dominated by his Destruction and Spacetime Laws was just outright weird now that he thought about it. He was pretty damn sure that the clash of these laws won\'t result in the creation of a whole damn cosmos. If anything, it might result into some strange phenomenon but not at the scale of Cosmic Creation. That\'s just impossible.
That brings up something incredibly important that he neglected all this while then. How the hell was it possible for his body to support an entire cosmos?
"Seriously, at this point I might as well be convinced that I got a damn cosmos inside my body. But then again how? How does my frail and petite body managed to support the existence of something so grand?"
That\'s not only the confusing part though...
"...and how the hell is possible for my two laws to dominate the entire thing? That shouldn\'t occur, after all it will result in a massive imbalance and might very well cause my to explode. But no matter how I logically look at this, the very spectacle in front of me is proving me wrong. Again, what the hell?"
Raven was grumbling in confusion. His state was truly confusing to him, and there\'s nothing he hated more than not knowing what\'s going on with his own body. He originally thought that every thing was under his control but it would seem that he got too complacent.
"Master...what the hell did you just give me? How am I supposed to understand this shit if you\'re not even giving any clues? This isn\'t written on the Book of Chaos!"
Raven continued grumbling, but no matter how much he complained, that doesn\'t erase the fact that he needed to time to completely comprehend what\'s happening here. Unfortunately, there\'s just way too many things that he didn\'t understand so it would take a long ass time to completely regain his control over this area.
"...haaah. Well, there\'s no other option left. I guess I have to really take things slow. Thankfully, it doesn\'t seem that I have problems using my Cosmic Energy despite not knowing what\'s going on. Avatars it is then."
Raven recalled his scattered consciousness and exited the place. When he opened his eyes from his meditation, he could see at least 50 of his Avatars standing in front of him. Without any further ado, he nodded at them and said:
"I\'ll leave it to you guys..."
The Avatars nodded and Raven began absorbing them within his core. Once again, it felt weird for him knowing that there\'s 50 copies of himself within his body, but Raven threw this notion away and focused on more important things.
Through his connections with the Avatars, then began scattering their consciousness within Raven\'s core. It\'s another strange feeling but Raven adapted to it. He didn\'t know that he\'d be taking \'introspection\' to a whole new level but here he was.
"This should at least pick up the pace... I just hope that I reach the adequate level when all hell breaks loose." Raven sighed and shook his head. "I\'d check on the from time to time just like what I did with the rest, hopefully I get something out of this."
If the person who saved Raven earlier could here him right now, their expression would truly be a marvel to see knowing that he has this little expectations about this.
Nevertheless, Raven more or less achieved everything here. Right now, he wanted to relax finally since he still felt somewhat fatigued. He still have a few odd months remaining here, he ultimately decided to spend those months in relaxation.
He stood up and walked towards where his tents were. More precisely, he went towards the tent where he created his bathroom. He checked the water\'s temperature and nodded when he still felt it\'s warmth. He then dispersed his clothes since their made out of Laws anyway and took a dip.
A relaxed sigh escaped his lips as soon as he felt the warmth seeping through his body, in addition to the hot bath, he could also smell the fragrance of bathing oils and petals around him. This just caused Raven to feel even more relaxed.
He could feel the warmth comforting his weary body. The only thing missing really is the company of a gorgeous babe and this would\'ve been a true luxury, it would\'ve been perfect that gorgeous babe happens to be his wife.
Noticing his thoughts heading this direction prompted a groan to escape from his lips as he felt longing for his dear wife.
"Just a little more and I\'ll be done here....wait for me."
