Chapter 62: The Forbidden Dominion 5

"The grand patriarch had been coping with the battle when two powerful revenants joined the fight. It was during the battle he realized they were God level r evenants, and he couldn't match up to them on his own. His life was on the line. He was limping and bleeding profusely while his left arm hung loosely in his shoulder's socket, almost torn off. With the other three revenants streaking towards him like lightning, he was forced to use the Dead God seal.'

"The Dead-God seal?"

One of the elders asked in shock. A forbidden luminous seal that shouldn't be used in a mortal world. All the immortals around during the use of a God Scroll would be locked inside the scroll. Then, the scroll will appear inside the White hall at the valley of gods. All souls would be locked for the period it would take the bell of the judgement room to sound. And that was one million years.

"Yes."

Then grand elder replied before turning away from them, staring ahead.

"One million years of total agony for everyone in the immediate surrounding when it was being used. The reason it was forbidden. Yet, grand patriarch had used it making the Revenants and many demons to be locked inside it before it disappeared and reappeared in the valley of the gods. The injured one who was staying far-off was the only one to survive among the Revenants when he quickly used teleportation seal. Grand patriarch will face the heavenly consequences for using a forbidden item when he ascended to the heavenly plane."

He slowly turn around raising one finger.

"But, it was during the battle that grand patriarch learned some valuable information about the circumstances surrounding the revenants and the Sinnughar core."

The grand elder raised an indicative finger.

"First, during his battle with them, he discovered that the revenants are much more powerful than we think. He had gone there to find out in person the danger level that the revenants pose to us. He found out that, although their level was reduced to that of nascent souls by the cosmic divines, they've increased their powers to that of ascendants. Some of them are even with ridiculous strength."

"How?"

One of the elders asked in disbelief.

"Either they're reviving their old god powers, or they found a way to increase their powers on their own. This made them a grave danger to both the mortal and demon worlds."

He raised the second finger making two.

"Second. That the cosmic divines would not intervene in any conflict or battle that doesn't threaten the balance of the universe. Cultivators in the mortal worlds, especially the ones below nascent soul, need to always protect themselves against this present danger. The revenants know this now, and they are planning their attacks accordingly".

The third finger joined the raised two.

"Third, that the cores of the primordial beasts are like divine artifacts, and they do exist. A number of others may be in the hands of other cultivators, demons, revenants, gods , and even the celestials. The Sinnughar core was as powerful as a divine artifact, therefore the reason to protect it more."

Raising four fingers up.

"And lastly? That dimensional domains are different from the dimensional worlds, and they exist. One can be containing the body of fallen primordials. It can be a beast, celestial or even that of a divine."

He stopped again and put another seed in his mouth. He chewed a bit in contemplation before he continued.

"The revenants had discovered one of the dimensional domains containing the dead primordials. After the great wars, the cosmic divines had been dealing with the primordials bodies both the divines and beasts left in this universe. But some of those bodies had entered dimensional domains. These domains are discovered by chance and pure luck. The revenant must have discovered the one belonging to a primordial beast."

The grand elder adjusted the folds of his robe as he recalled what he later learned from the grand patriarch. The foremost leader of the Phantom realms had sent a group of Revenants led by his general into the domain to retrieve the valuables that were inside the domain including the body of the primordial beast or the core and any part they could take. The group of ten Revenants had entered but only two survived the implosion of the domain. The leader of the group had the core with him and was at the other end with another revenant when the implosion occurred. They had quickly used the teleportation seal before the complete implosion but the implosion altered their destination.

"Unfortunately for them, their teleportation portal had appeared on Urgorod just at the same time and the same place the demons were opening their own portal. The portals energy had collided on a massive scale and exploded outward with a loud bang. The explosion caused many around to be teleported to different places."

With his hand folded behind his back, he paced up and down.

"The revenant leader was transported into our world. It was after he arrived in our world, that he had that encounter with our sect grand elder."

He stopped for a moment to think.

"The other revenant must have found his way back to the Phantom realm and reported to their foremost leader. He sent more powerful revenants to the demon world of Urgorod to find out where they were hiding his general and the core to recover them by all means. The first world they entered was a neighbouring world to Urgorod. It wasn't the right world they were looking for. But this had already alerted them at Urgorod. That was when Targom called for help."

The grand elder voiced before continuing his pacing.

"The Sinnughar core wasn't with me before, it was kept secured in the sect's inner safe. But, when the grand patriarch returned from the Netherplane, he asked me to keep this on me at all time. He asked me not to let it get back into the hands of the revenants."

The elders started to quip in.

"True. Who knows what they plan to do with it?"

"Especially when the ruler of one of the phantom realms wants it at all cost."

"Maybe another bloodline power harness."

"Or he would just consume the chaos power inside the core and mutate more."

"Perhaps to make a divine weapon?"

"Imagine the power he will have."

"The core can't be allowed to fall into their hand, grand elder."

"Yes, we can't allow them."

The Grand elder replied.

"That's why the grand patriarch embarked on having an empyrean golem made to add to the sect's protection. It'll be infused with the Sinnughar core. It's construction had been going on ever since and will soon finish."

"Really?"

They all asked at the same time.

Yes. I wanted to show you all as a surprise, but now, the circumstances have changed."

They continued discussing for a while before the elders left to attend to their daily duties. They were to assemble later in the day.

Few hours after the remaining elders had left, the three core disciples, Shao Cheng, Quan Zhi and Li Ling returned from the lake of Streamlight. Their bruises and cuts had disappeared. Their nerves had settled, no longer their jittery old selves.

The grand elder smiled tenderly after seeing them.

"How are you all feeling now?"

"Much better, grand elder."

"Gran elder, we're sorry for looking very bad be-"

"No need."

The grand elder cut them off with a gentle swipe of his hand.

"You don't need to say anything about it. We understand your plights. Only few disciples of your levels could stood up and performed the way you did in the face of true mortal danger. We commend your efforts."

He raised his hand in a gesture.

"Come, follow me. I have some gifts for you."
