Supreme Origin: Time King

Chapter 266: VII Completed Path?

After a long period, Elijah's deep shut eyes slowly opened wide. Staring down at his body and Chloe tightly holding onto his neck with her eyes closed. Moving his hand, he scanned her body only to reveal a huge grin on his face.

"It worked, she's not just a fragment anymore." Seeing her previously incorporeal form, regain its once healthy complexion as well as the warmth on the surface of her skin made him sure he got successful in restoring her as well.

"Ell..." Chloe muttered, his name before awakening from her slumber. Staring blankly at him, memories of the previous events struck her like thunder, her face gained a deep shade of red, but instead of releasing her grasp on him she only held him tighter. To her surprise, Elijah removed her hands from his neck as there was a different emotion in his eyes.

Chloe was about to ask something when she realized something that shouldn't be there, coming from herself."What happened? Wait, this is..." 

"ba-dum, ba-dum"

Feeling the surprising fast heartbeat from her own body, confusion only deepened in her eyes when she removed her attention from Elijah to inspect herself. At first, she saw both her hands were significantly smaller, then she reached out with her hands and felt her head, nose, eyes, ear and the rest of her body.

Seeing she must have realized what he did to her, Elijah didn't wait before explaining himself. "As you know, I'm fully merged with the supreme origin of time, which gives me nearly free control of time itself as long as I have enough energy. There was a bit of energy remaining from my breakout which I used to make you mortal again."

"Mortal?" 

Elijah coughed a few times, feeling a bit anxious before continuing. "Then, with the use of my memories and this power of mine, I searched through the past and used the pre-awakening Chloe as the base for the time reversal I used on you. In other words, I simply reverted you to the person you were before your awakening, but as there is no divinity within you anymore, you've become just a normal girl of your age. This may have created a screwed timeline somewhere, but who cares right?"

"It is just that because of this, the artifact you made for me has never been made. And if it wasn't because of your connection with me, your memories would also be lost." When he finished, pulsing from his fingertips is a strange, bright white light. Elijah observed it flicker, changing colors from amber, to ruby, then purple, blue and back to white.

"I've also redone my cultivation. Using the same way to initiate the cultivation of the trinity, but with my upgraded bloodline, soul and the energy of creation within the core of the celestial world. My senses tell me that my path has been completed." Within Elijah, the entire structure of his body changed. His bones, organs, blood vessels and energy paths were gone, replaced by a mass of white light. He wasn't sure what he became, only that it wasn't mortal or celestial.

His image within the hall tried to touch one of them, but no matter what he did none of them would respond to him. Looks like even he couldn't not break the rule that only one supreme origin can be fully assimilated per person, he understood his destiny was to be their creator not their holder.

When both finished observing the changes within themselves, Elijah and Chloe noticed the whole desert as well as, well, everything there was in the celestial was gone. Replaced by profound emptiness, above them was a massive sphere connected by numerous threads formed by countless galaxies made from even more stars.

There were in the middle of the chaotic space! This place was too dangerous for them, even Yawen's father and the cosmic heart would be doomed if they dared to step out without any protection. Chloe realized that and was confused to why there are event here, especially when she was an ordinary mortal like Elijah said. 

"Then what should we do now?"

"Search for the abyss." Elijah said, his eyes searched through the chaos before locking on a thin form in the distance. If looked closer, it was similar to a small-scale galaxy, or at least it was small compared to the massive cosmic realm.

"We have no clue about what happened, my eyes should be able to see through time, but all the energy of creation at that moment in time is messing with my vision. I can't see what happened with Eternia. When we get there, I must find a path and manuals for you to cultivate, as a six-year old once again we must use the opportunity to find something that suits you."

Taking Chloe in his arms, he simply thought and his body moved through the void, heading to the abyss. "Hold me tight."

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiollll!

While flying, Elijah never felt so light, like all the weight he in his body was gone. 

........

Eternal Void Star, in the Royal Palace's Royal Family Altar.

Since Yawen returned, the entire abyss was in uproar. Yawen was in the Event Center, now used as a shelter for those who escaped from the World King. There were both those who come from the celestial realm and those from the cosmic realm. Gods, Immortals and Saints arrived in masses together with their descendants, some of them had lost a limb and others were turned half-crippled.

And for some reason, since arriving in the abyss, the prideful Celestial Beings that lived through countless years had lost the control over laws, and even the energy they cultivated for dozens of centuries was slowly fading within their bodies. Those who didn't have a powerful cultivations witnessed their armament, spirit beast and divine wings collapse right in front of them before entering a deep sleep only to wake up and find themselves empty.

From those who were sent to the Void Clan's capital were the refugees from the planet 31-A, Elijah's homeworld. They were given the best accommodations which made some of the old Greek Goddess Afrodite a bit jealous since the best rooms were taken by mere mortals, not that she was different having been the first from her clan to fall from divinity into Mortality. For an inborn deity like, the feeling of being mortal was completely unknown and she still didn't get used to her new identity unlike Athena, who sat besides her reading a magazine about the Ten Best Movies To Watch Before The End Of The World.

Meanwhile, a group of four were in their rooms with faces full of fear. A middle-aged man and three females, dressed in tattered clothes while staring at the three pair of clean robes made of a soft material and patterns of stars made of golden threads on top of the bed. If Elijah was there he would be able to recognize them as the Miller family, the family of Layla, the girl that was supposed to be his fiancee.

It has been a few weeks since Theodore and his family locked themselves in the room only leaving when it was time to eat and then return to their room.

Layla and her sister were also visibly shaken by what they saw outside. Gods! So many gods leaving through gates, just the millions of winged-figures in the sky were enough to shake them, much less all of this together.

"Oh gods, what is happening." The man grasped his head and sighed. After luckily surviving the coup of the Midas Family, Theodore and his family left the kingdom in search for a new beginning.

The last memory he had was of him and his family falling in a strange fissure in the ground and then the world suddenly changed and started to collapse, the heavens shook as the earth broke before their feet. Strange creatures poured from holes in the ground from where weird looking beasts that ripped the bodies of the Demigods the treated as deities. 

"Dear, should we wear the clothes those people gave us?" When they were about to be For some reason a group of men and women dressed in black appeared out of thin air and rescued them from the brink of dead. At that moment they weren't in a good state so they didn't realize the level of those people, but when they leader healed their bodies in the blink of an eye and a huge gate leading to a golden kingdom like those seen in the legends appear before them was like they were stuck by lightning.

Then they were sent to this location, which was already many times more luxurious and comfortable than anything they experimented before. And for a pair of cultivators that lived for more than a couple decades, they could guess those people weren't mere mortals as the scale of the city outside the windows wasn't something a mortal could build. There was also how strange it was for beings of this level to treat them so well, in fact, it was this reason than made them unable to leave their room.

There was also the ethereal beauty dressed in gray dress that would check on them once in a while while talking with them.

Layla's sister thought of the same thing and said."I would have never guessed there were women of that level, and she treat us so well. What is her name again? Yawen, right."

Layla and Violet both nodded, while the former felt a bit strange when she saw that woman for the first time. 

"I don't know what is happening, nor why the Gods are so good as to bring us to their place. Maybe we will know why soon.""
