  • by John Williams  If there was one thing that Max understood with his experience in mastering the void, it was the fact that these ultimate elements could not be understood forcibly. When learning the basic elements, Max always felt like he could force the basic elements to reveal their secrets, almost as if he could impose his will upon them, however, such a scenario was not possible with the ultimate elements. He needed to surrender to their ways if he wanted to learn their secrets and to do so he needed to…
  • by John Williams  After mastering Void, Max's next focus was to master darkness. After his profound understanding of the void element, Angakok's memories left the second best template for darkness. In his tier promotion test, although Angakok had not mastered darkness, he had gained a passable understanding of the element and it gave Max some minor confidence to attempt in mastering it. According to Angakok the darkness element wasn't just a state which encompassed the absence of light, instead he believed that…
  • by John Williams  ( Max's POV ) The mastery of the void was a process that Max thoroughly enjoyed. Usually when he was stuck trying to decipher the secrets of the universe, he felt a sense of frustration and restlessness as he couldn't wait to get all of this over with so that he could return to things that actually mattered, however, it wasn't the case this time around. There was something about the void, something about its ability to nullify everything, something about its nature to strip everything down to…
  • by John Williams ( Rudra's POV ) ' It's lonely being at the top….. ' Rudra thought melancholically as he watched Jake spar with Kartikeya. The kids were growing up fine and their skills in combat were getting sharper and sharper every passing day. The combat between Jake and Kartikeya was always intense and a great duel to observe overall, however, as Rudra watched the two kids smile and battle with vigour he wondered as to when he last felt the rush of battle? Rudra loved wars but he loved fighting strong…
  • by John Williams The journey for Max after learning how to manifest his physical form within his sea of subconsciousness was relatively smoother. Once he learned how to manifest his form, learning how to move inside it came like a second nature to him and within a few hours he could move within the sea of subconsciousness as well as he could in the real world. Once inside the sea of subconsciousness, Max gained clarity as to how the body was able to condense and utilise the divine essence from the surroundings and…
  • by John Williams  Time flowed differently in the celestial realm than it did within the controlled universe. What felt like weeks to Max, translated to only a few hours in the controlled universe as he made little to no progress in his first endeavour of learning to separate the consciousness from the flesh Max's search for the Sea of Consciousness was grounded in the anatomical corridors of his own brain. It wasn't a grand cosmic expedition but a microscopic scrutiny. With his blood manipulation, Max had means…
  • by John Williams  According to Angakok's memories, the Void was the most enigmatic of the superior elements. 'Void' was the absence, the null, where nothing existed but also where everything could be born. It was paradoxical, hard to grasp and even harder to control. Within the Void, the normal laws of time, space, and matter ceased to exist, making it the perfect tool for navigation and transcendence beyond physical barriers. But such power came at a cost. The Void demanded equilibrium, balance amidst the chaos…
  • by John Williams There was a hierarchy when it came to the ultimate elements. According to the information that both Angakok and the Primal God Of War had left behind, the tier7 promotion grounds were located just beyond the universe after the barrier of space, time and gravity that seperated the controlled universe from the celestial realm. Only those at the peak of tier6 were allowed to pass the barrier and appear in the realm of ' Chaotic Energies ' once every 500 years for a chance to advance to tier7. First…
  • by John Williams It took Max a full two days to understand just how much he had gained from killing Angakok. ' What a terrifying move…. ' Max thought as he realised why soul-devour was considered a forbidden move that wasn't even available in the Universal Warehouse. A tier 0 individual could hypothetically become a monarch within a decade if he used soul-devour every step of the way. Undoubtedly, it wasn't possible to use it without divine essence and there were a lot of complications with its usage, but it's…
  • by John Williams ( Max's POV ) When Max finally woke up, he found himself within the make-shift house that he had built within the time chamber alongside Kremeth while learning wind manipulation. " Brings back memories…. " he said as he struggled to sit upright. The moment Max moved his head even a little, he felt like he had a severe case of vertigo as his mind revolted against the movement. " Woah, woah…. " Max complained, clutching his head in pain as he had not felt this type of migraine ever since he…
