Millennium Tension

Chapter 188: Plans and Prospects

"Oh, if it is that, Yifei, you will be surprised when we have started our cultivation to increase our strength. Right now, we are just relaxing and enjoying our time quietly." Aizen wagged his hand lightly, he refuted the wrong assumption.

"Eh? Why is that, Master Aizen?" Yifei was very interested, she was not the only one who felt that way, but her little sister too.

Aizen smiled briefly in response, it was no secret and they did not keep it a secret within this Trinity family. Shortly afterward, Aizen, assisted by Ana and Axel, explained to the two girls who were not present at the time.

Starting from their discovery of a mysterious area in a valley between the iceberg cliffs, the wisp, Lin Tian, the Upper Realm, to the divine bracelet.

Yifei and Lian who came from Middle Realm gasped at the explanation with the data shared through the system. Not in their wildest imaginations, the explorations and leisurely tours that took place in the snow in such an unexpected encounter.

One-eighth of the Upper Realm had collapsed? Because of countless Void creatures and Chaos monsters? It was a place where all cultivators wanted to reach in order to rise to higher levels, but that place was in dire straits?

However, after they had digested it all, the things that astonished them the most were two things. Regarding the fated ones in question, and the actual structure of their wider universe as a whole.

"Ah, so, we live in a vast universe with three layers and a universe core as the creator of the universe law?" Yifei played with the ends of her hair while contemplating something.

"If we take it from Lin Tian's memory, then that's right. Universe Core protects all beings living within it from the voids and chaos energy outside. Upper Realm is the outermost layer, which has boundaries that meet directly with voids. Something that cultivates with the influence of that energy, will quickly gain great strength." Aizen nodded in confirmation.

"Uhh, who would have thought, the Lower Realm which has thin divine energy, and the Universe Core dispels all other energies, this is the safest place of the other layers... So, divine energy, it is energy affected by voids and chaos..." Lian muttered in deep contemplation.

The energy she had used in the past, divine energy was nothing more than energy derived from the effects of stronger energies. If so, how strong were the Void creatures and Chaos monsters that had invaded their universe? It was unbelievable and could not follow their reasoning.

"Umm, Master Aizen, Axel, Ana... If we are categorized as the chosen ones... Do we have an obligation to protect this whole universe? To protect the Universe Core and this universe from being destroyed?" Yifei felt a little uneasy, but she ventured herself to ask.

"I think it is true, our story from the beginning to the present cannot be just plain blunt. We have been guided by a completely different method from the previous savior. The Universe Core only helps us from the background, without meeting or explaining anything to us.. We even have the previous savior inheritance." Aizen stated the fact and reality, things they could accept.

"Why does Universe Core throw such a big responsibility on us? It's too heavy and big to be called responsibility and obligation..." Lian seemed to want to protest about many things, but she immediately became silent because her big sister held her hand.

"You don't need to worry, Lian, Yifei. Just follow the path, look at Master Aizen and us. Are any of us anxious and nervous?" Axel spoke softly, reassured the two girls who were thinking too far.

"Yes, you two think like that and underestimate us, huh? If this whole Universe is taken over by them, there is a huge risk that so many souls will drift somewhere unknown. The life cycle is governed by the Universe Core, and if it is taken and seized by the invaders... That's over for everything, including us." Ana snorted and folded her arms to look like a fierce girl.

"Oh, Ana, ever since you said that, I suddenly came up with a unique theory about the invaders." Aizen smiled, delighted at the sudden realization.

"Hm? What is it, Brother Aizen?" Ana tilted her head slightly, she immediately turned into a kind and obedient girl.

Aizen placed both hands on the table, and all the girls' attention was on him to await a further explanation. Even Bella was also curious, even though she just joined in and didn't really understand anything.

"I think that countless Void creatures and Chaos monsters are beings sent from another universe far out there. Something craves our Universe Core for a purpose we don't know yet, but the invaders' aim is that. Add your opinion on this theory." Aizen lightly tapped on the table, that was the big point.

"En! That's a very plausible theory, Brother Aizen. All we know, only invaders who come out of nowhere and like to target our Universe Core. Lin Tian also doesn't know much about it, all he knows is kill and kill, huft! There must be some reason why they came for that." Ana was the first to respond, she grunted somewhat dissatisfied with that dead muscle head.

"It could be that there are other universes out there as already mentioned, and there are other Universe Cores as well. It desires our Universe Core, perhaps, to rise to a higher level? It can't leave its universe because it can't get out of its territory, so it strengthens its army and sends that countless creature here." Axel rested her cheek against her hand, muttered randomly in wonder.

"Um, how does that sound hehe... I'm a little screwed about this." Axel smiled innocently, she only talked about the things that crossed her mind when she thought about this complicated matter.

"Hmm... I think that's something we can understand very well. Anyway, they are our enemies, enemies who intend to destroy our universe." Aizen clenched his fists, as if conveying his aspirations and motivations.

"That huge army already occupied one-eighth of the Upper Realm, and the rest of the other parts of the realm, sealed their boundaries, sealed the war zone that was destroyed, by various means..." Feeling everyone wasn't worried, apart from herself and her little sister, Yifei conveyed her thoughts, more calmly.

"Even though the invaders are sealed, they are still growing... the Upper Realm is only buying time, to avoid the inevitable, with hope. Then, we must immediately become stronger, much stronger than the strongest... That way, we can ward off all the dangers that come to us." With confidence, Yifei announced that.

"Hahaha... That's great, Yifei. We'll be gradual, don't rush, and don't worry too much. Our Universe Core is not that weak, it's got its own method, and we have our own way. We convey this all, because you both are already our family. Don't think we excluded you from this, or plunged you into danger." Aizen laughed happily at that, it sounded like motivation. He also didn't forget to remind the obvious.

"En, we understand. Thank you for letting us know, Master Aizen." Lian and Yifei simultaneously conveyed their gratitude.

Aizen only nodded afterward, and then they moved on to a more relaxed and comfortable topic of things they would do for the next few days.

Even though they had been on vacation for some time, they finally decided to shorten the six months into something that was not too long. They also had to continue their power up strength stage as soon as possible, simply because of the invaders.

And besides, they started producing some type of resource at their disposal to become something they could use to strengthen their overall power level. From abundant raw materials to ready-to-use resources in a suitable form, even the Axel Goddess also needed a major upgrade.

As Aizen and his girls discussed their plans and prospects in a calm and romantic atmosphere, some distance away from the all-expensive city's wall, a group of young cultivator girls had just arrived.

A group of girls with two distinctive robes that were different, and came up with two different things. Three veiled girls with a bluish-white impression came on the White Lotus, and three other girls who were also veiled but with a pure white impression and several golden tinges came riding above a Sky Phoenix.

They were Lin Yu and two her junior sisters, then Feng Zhi and two her junior sisters.

They had traveled for one week just to get here. The trip did not come straight to this city, and required them to take plenty of rest on the way.

"Lin Yu, we are almost to Amberpond City. Are you sure, Master Aizen is there?" Feng Zhi asked in a calm voice.

"Yes, this time I'm pretty sure. We are very close, master Aizen must be in that city." Lin Yu nodded slowly, though while looking ahead, at a city that looked lively with lots of light as if it was showing off the beauty of the world.
