Chapter 990: Concluded

An hour ago, as soon as Emery performed the decisive strike that ended the life of the Abyss creature, his vision blurred and he found himself at another place as the Primordial Wisp presented him with another vision.

The vision this time was similar to the one he once had when he touched the Gaia tree.

Emery found his body floating, and his surroundings were filled with nine different colored brilliant lights, namely red, purple, blue, yellow, indigo, cyan, green, and black. Each light brimmed with powerful energy, and as his gaze looked down at his feet, there was another equally dazzling white light that seemed much more powerful than the rest.

He watched as the white light thumped and the nine lights slowly made their way toward it as if they were being pulled. As they got closer, the light grew bigger and bigger until he could see nothing but color. In the end, the ten different colored lights that had become enormous met each other and mixed together, becoming smaller and eventually disappearing.

For a moment, the void where nothing existed became Emery's companion, but their time was interrupted when a massive explosion suddenly occurred. It roared with such force that made Emery think that his entire existence had been erased in that exact instant!

Emery didn't know how much time had passed, but he carefully opened his closed eyes. Immediately, he was greeted by the sight of thousands of tiny sparkling lights. They were scattered everywhere, drifting aimlessly on a black canvas of emptiness.

He witnessed as some of them enter planets of various sizes and different colors. Then, his attention was drawn to the particular one flying towards a yellow planet he was familiar with – Andora.

In an instant, Emery's vision zoomed to the yellow planet, past the planet's atmosphere and onto a tiny plant seed. Time seemed to be fast forwarded by as the plant grew rapidly, becoming a towering gray tree. It was the one he had seen, the Tree of Light.

The existence of and the tree itself helped make life on the planet flourished at an unprecedented rate. Life was perfect as countless creatures lived in harmony, humans started to arrive from the sky and inhabited the land.

Time went on, and before long, thousands of years had passed and now the Primordial Wisp had reached its maturity. It started to give birth to offspring, the so-called spirit beings. On the other hand, the humans began to come to its domain more often. They came with malicious intentions, trying to do them harm.

It was the innate nature of all living beings to fight back when their lives were threatened. And so, the Wisp just did what it had to do in order to survive.

Just like that, the Calamity occurred.

The humans contained the power in an artifact, causing the Primordial Wisp to lose control. It has become a weapon for those who acquire it. In this case, the one who obtained it was the Guardian of the Trees – the centipede.

Restrained and weakened by the shackles placed upon it, the centipede took over and clouded the Primordial Wisp's mind. With its power, the centipede wreaked havoc to the planet where it was born. Until finally, when Emery managed to kill the creature, it was free once again.

Various visions and messages finally made Emery see and understand the whole situation.

He once again found himself floating in the void, where this time a bright ball of light came and stopped right in front of him. A voice sounded in his mind.

"Thank you human"

The words were clear without any jumbles in them. It wasn't just the Wisp, the offspring was also ecstatic to once again return to their mother. Emery caught a glimpse of the spirit beings flying happily around Primordial Wisp.

"Accept this reward for helping us"

Emery couldn't help but feel excited when he heard such words. Even though he helped the Primordial Wisp out of kindness, a reward was definitely something that he would not refuse. Hence he couldn't but wonder what kind of reward a primordial being would give him.

The ball of light floating in front of him shone brightly once again, and Emery received another vision.

It was a vision of a tiny plant growing into a magnificent tree with lush leaves with time, providing fruit for animals to eat. The vision then shifted to the animal that ate the fruit the tree produced.

The animal found a mate, produced offspring, and then grew old until it could no longer move and could only lie in its nest. He watched it die, and its remains gave life to the birth of more plants.

The vision gave Emery a great deal of insight into his newfound light element, particularly about the meaning of 'life' by going through the experience of the cycle of life itself.

When he finally woke up from his trance-like state, Emery was dumbfounded when he saw the barrage of notifications bombarding his mind. One notification in particular shocked him so much that it left him gobsmacked.

Emery closed and opened his eyes, making sure what he saw wasn't wrong. He wasn't.

He really had learned the spell that made the Royal Centipede a literal immortal. The fabled [Rebirth]

Through firsthand experience, Emery knew very well how powerful the spell was. It was simply overpowered. The fact he was able to use it was a great boon. After all, saving the lives of those around him was of utmost importance.

Excitement ran through him as he couldn't wait to give the spell a try. But his attention was diverted when he felt a sudden feeling of anxiety from the spirit beings. His suspicions were proven by the words the spirit beings spoke.

"They are here!"

A series of information swiftly entered Emery's mind. It told him about the people from the sky who came to harvest on the tree, and the fact that this time they had apparently come again to do them harm.

"Help us human"

It was at this moment that Emery sensed a grand magus figure rapidly approaching where he was.

It didn't take long for the 12 offspring to come to a unanimous decision. They decided that they would lure the grand magus away, while Emery would help their mother to escape.

"Please help her"

"I will, tell me what to do," Emery said, nodding as a glint of determination flashed across his eyes.

There was a certain farewell communication between the two before Emery put the Wisp inside his Spatial Space and the offspring unleashed its power to lure the grand magus away. Thanks to that, the Wisp managed to escape detection.

Only when Emery, sneaked out of the group, went to a faraway place, and made sure it was safe did he finally take out the Primordial Wisp of his Spatial Space.

"What are you planning to do now?" Emery asked.

"Human, I will find a new planet to nurture. with one of my offspring lived within you, perhaps one day our paths will cross again."

After saying those words, the Wisp soared to the sky. Emery watched the ball of light until it disappeared into the planet's atmosphere.

He heaved a sigh. The Primordial Wips was certainly a source of extreme, extraordinary power. However, at this point, Emery had realized how much it was coveted by many and the fact that without adequate power to protect it, it would only be disastrous if one kept it around.

Suddenly, Emery thought about the two Primordial Wisp – Gaia and Khaos – that were currently on Earth. An intense headache ran through his head, but in the end, he could only heave another deep sigh.

Not realizing how much time he took to reflect, Emery only noticed figures running toward him when they got close. It was Jinkan, who apparently came together with the old magus of the Iliad faction he saw earlier.

Guessing what Emery had just done, the old magus did not hide the anger he felt.

"You!! Why did you release it?!" He snarled. "You are going to pay for this!"

As soon as the Wisp exited his Spatial Space, these people would be able to sense it and Emery knew that his act would be discovered. In fact, he was actually prepared to accept any consequence thrown in his direction.

The old magus seemed about to apprehend Emery, when the Nephilim girl stopped the former's tracks with her laughter.

"I didn't think you would actually go through with it," Jinkan said in amusement.

It was obvious that the old magus was irritated by her laughter. In his annoyance, he blurted out words he shouldn't have said. "Do you think this is a joke?"

Jinkan's laughter came to a stop. She looked at the old magus coldly, causing the latter to quake on his boots. In a level tone, she icily said, "It was never stated that capturing the Wisp is what we have to do. It was never in the list of objectives the academy gave nor have anything to do with us acolytes."

Her tone changed, turning into a mockery. "You certainly don't think that we – acolytes" She emphasized the part. "– capable of doing anything to stop such a primordial being, don't you? After all, a certain group of people can't even do that."

The old magus was silent, as he realized what and who Jinkan implied. On the other hand, Emery was anxious because the Nephilim girl, for some reason, backed him up. He couldn't help but think of a scheme when he saw the wicked smile on her face.

Jinkan's next word gives him much concern,

"Apparently you are not that stupid, you did the right thing as expected. Now that you know more about the wisp, we will have our conversation soon"

After seeing all the survivors aboard the Iliad faction's spaceship, Emery and the others activated their combat suit's teleportation function.
