Abyss Eighth layer, Primordial Infernal Realm
A huge city could be seen floating in space, seven pillars stretched from the edges into space, inscriptions of different languages were drawn on them with tongues of flames swirling round them. The huge city stood towering over nearby planets like a distinct beacon from afar. In the city, towering buildings of different sizes were erected, the walls made of blazing red sapphire bricks with races of all kind walking in the city. In the capital of the Primordial Infernal Realm a Guard rushed into the throne hall, a look of enthusiasm and worship evident on his face. Crouching onto the ground as a sign of obeisance towards the figure seated atop the throne. "You seem to have something important for me." A voice came from the throne. "Lord Yan Ming, the border at Anixia is under attack by the Primordial Divine realm, the ruler of the Divine realm Tian Yi is leading the divine forces to take down Anixia herself, we need your assistance to hold her down." Listening to the report Yan Ming raised an eyebrow, turned his head to look out of the city spanning more than the size of six stars. His eyes narrowed down till he saw a thick membrane floating in space, a large hole could be seen in the membrane through which an army filled with white halo were crossing over. "Tian Yi really dares to invade the infernal realm? A century of peace and she already forgot the lessons from one hundred years ago." He said in an angry voice. The messenger who was still crouching on the ground trembled slightly, apprehensive of his fate. "Are the seven generals aware of this?" "They are already gathering the armies of the eight layers to secure Anixia and seal the breach." "Forget about sealing the breach, if she dares to invade and cost me so many losses I'll take back tenfold from her." Yan Ming said, stood up from the throne and vanished from the throne hall. The messenger stood up and left the throne hall. Outside the hall, a woman with long white hair, white eyes a fair skin as delicate as jade asked him. "What were his orders?" "We're invading the divine realm." "As expected of Yan Ming, he won't let go of a grievance that easily, counter invading is the least he'll do." She said then turned around and left without another word. "General Ao Yue! What are we going to do?" He said while running behind her. "What else? This is war and we won't let the divine realm go till we take back tenfold of what they took from us." She said with a glint in her eyes then vanished from the hallway. "She really is his wife, they're all so scary and have the same reasoning." He muttered. --- Anixia, a border region between the divine realm and the infernal realm. The universe was made up of three realms coexisting with each other to form a balance. The Mortal Realm The Divine Realm The Infernal Realm The cosmos birthed the three realms and each existed to compliment the other, a mortal is fated to die, after death the destination is rebirth in either the infernal realm or the divine realm. The Infernal Realm and Divine Realm are opposed to each other, they clash frequently but never involve the mortal Realm in their skirmishes. As opposed to that, their common goal is to protect the Mortal Realm and ensure it's peace. During the birth of chaos, the primordial origin gave birth to a few number of creations, creations born out of the chaos as the rulers of the three Realms. Tian Yi and her seven generals were ordained by chaos to rule over the Divine Realm. Yan Ming and his seven generals were ordained as the rulers of the Infernal Realm. Only those birthed from the cosmos or choosen by it could attain the final Realm of cultivation, the Primordial Sovereign Ascension Realm. Yan Ming and Tian Yi both stand at the pinnacle of the Primordial Sovereign Ascension Realm, at the very peak of power in the cosmos. Yan Ming appeared at the breach created by the Divine army in Anixia without a single sound or alerting anyone, he appeared like a silent ghost in the void staring down at the Divine army rampaging on the planets close to the breach with a calm look on his face. Raising his palm he called out "Come forth, Olethros" a surge of flames appeared on his palms spreading out onto the Divine army burning them till there was nothing left of their ashes. A single spark of the flame was enough to erase them totally, the flame of destruction Olethros one of the seven flames of hell commanded by Yan Ming had the attribute of erasing and destroying anything it touched! Defences won't help against it and armor were more than useless. The tides turned in an instant, the Divine army fell into panic watching the flames that appeared out of nowhere consume their numbers. The Infernal army cried out in Glee and chased after the Divine army, it seemed like the Divine army would fall due to the interference from Yan Ming when a bright halo fell from the skies onto the army cleansing them of the surging flames while the infernal army touched by the halo were scorched alive. Yan Ming raised his head and looked at the breach in the barrier, a woman with flowing white hair and eyes, and a white garment around her body could be seen floating in the space, just the sight of her would make anyone bow to her in worship. Yan Ming inspired fear and reverence into his followers while Tian Yi inspired awe and hope into her followers, it was an attribute that was attached to them right from birth, back when the two first met. "Tian Yi, looks like you missed me so much you couldn't stand it anymore after just a hundred years." Yan Ming said, his gaze fixated on Tian Yi who stood still in the void, the two totally ignored the battle ongoing in the nearby planets all the way to the barrier. "I didn't miss you Yan Ming, I've given you enough time to rest from the beating you got a hundred years ago." Yan Ming heard a light and soothing voice, even though the two were tens of thousands of light years away the voices felt like they were right beside their ears. "Looks like I was right, you sneak all the way here with your army and expect to leave alive without casualties? You underestimate me way too much Tian Yi, you know what I can do when I get angry." He said, his eyes gleaming red like sapphire forged from the pits of hell. "Seven flames of hell, come forth!."Latest Chapter
What Remains: End Of Book One
A year later, the coalition that had once formed purely from desperate necessity had settled into something considerably more permanent — a genuine, lasting alliance between eleven territories that continued cooperating on trade, mutual defense, and the ongoing work of ensuring the Concord's dissolved structures never again coalesced into anything resembling their former, coercive unity. Tian Shen, now formally recognized as the alliance's primary coordinating voice, had proven himself as capable a peacetime leader as he'd been a wartime commander, the Tian clan's territory flourishing under his continued, thoughtful governance. Long Xue had settled into a role as the alliance's primary liaison to the void dragon clan's reforming leadership, her own journey from grief-driven hunter to genuine, trusted ally now complete in ways that had transformed her entirely from the cold, calculating figure who'd once ambushed Yan Ming at the Withering Garden's threshold. She vi
A Quiet Return
Nearly six months after the convergence's collapse, with the coalition's rebuilding efforts finally settling into sustainable, ongoing rhythm rather than urgent, demanding crisis, Yan Ming and Qing Chun found themselves, for the first time since their tournament victory so long ago, with genuine, unhurried time to simply exist together without the weight of imminent catastrophe pressing against every decision. "Do you remember," Qing Chun said, as they walked together through the same tournament city where their journey had first properly begun, its streets considerably more peaceful now than the chaotic, celebration-filled days following Yan Ming's unexpected victory, "when you told me jade necklaces were useless, and then bought me one anyway?" "I remember," he said, managing a genuine, warm smile at the memory's simplicity, so distant now from everything they'd since endured together. "You still have it?" "Always." She touched the necklace at her throat, the s
Rebuilding
The weeks that followed brought the considerable, demanding work of transitioning from war back toward peace, the coalition's eleven territories gradually shifting their focus from coordinated military preparation toward the equally challenging task of helping the Concord's absorbed sects and territories reestablish independent governance, free from the coercive unity Feng Lie Zun's ambition had once imposed upon them. Tian Shen took a leading role in this transition, his diplomatic skill proving as valuable in peace as it had been in building the original alliance, carefully navigating the complicated process of restoring trust and autonomy to territories that had spent years under the Concord's controlling influence. "It's slower work than the battle itself, in some ways," he admitted to Yan Ming, during one of their regular strategy sessions turned peace-building consultations. "Fighting has a clear beginning and end. Rebuilding trust, restoring genuine inde
The Warden's Confirmation
Three days after the battle's conclusion, as the coalition's forces settled into the considerable work of managing the Concord's dissolved territory and beginning the delicate process of reintegrating absorbed sects back into independent governance, Yan Ming found himself once more drawn toward quiet solitude, old habit of reflection reasserting itself amid the aftermath's demanding, ongoing activity. He found Qing Chun and Long Xue already waiting near the makeshift camp's quiet edge when a familiar, layered voice broke the evening's stillness. "You've accomplished something remarkable," the Warden said, materializing with the same unhurried, patient grace that had marked his previous appearances, grey robes settling around him as though he'd simply always been present, watching quietly from just beyond ordinary perception. "I confess, even I hadn't fully anticipated this particular resolution." "You knew about Feng Lie Zun's manipulation?" Yan Ming asked, old
The Battle
They emerged from the spire's shattered entrance to a scene of considerable, ongoing chaos, the coalition's massive diversionary force still locked in fierce engagement with the Concord's outer defenses, though the battle's character had visibly shifted in the time they'd spent within the spire's confines. Concord soldiers, no longer receiving coordinated command from whatever central authority had directed their earlier, disciplined resistance, fought now with the scattered, uncertain desperation of an army that sensed something fundamental had changed. "The convergence's collapse must be affecting them," Yan Ming observed, studying the battlefield's shifted dynamics with old, tactical assessment despite his considerable exhaustion. "Whatever loyalty bound them to Feng Lie Zun's cause, it's clearly tied at least partially to the array's continued function." "Then let's make sure that collapse continues," Long Xue said, already moving toward the nearest cluster
What Remains Between Brothers
They rested amid the chamber's settling wreckage for a long while, exhaustion from the confrontation's staggering demands finally, fully catching up to all four of them. Qing Chun leaned heavily against Yan Ming, her cultivation reserves depleted almost entirely by the containment technique's considerable exertion, though her eyes remained open, alert despite the fatigue. "You're alright?" Yan Ming asked, old concern evident despite his own considerable exhaustion. "I will be," she said, managing a tired but genuine smile. "Tianyi says the depletion is significant but not dangerous. Just needs time to properly recover." Long Xue settled nearby, void-attribute qi finally quieting after the confrontation's demanding exertion, her gaze drifting toward Feng Lie Zun's kneeling, exhausted form with old, complicated wariness that hadn't entirely faded despite his genuine cooperation. "What happens to you now?" Feng Lie Zun looked up slowly, old weariness and somethi
