"Definitely!" Jiang Xi's eyes lit up with joy, nodding imdiately.
Though she could et their parents back on Blue Star, visiting them across alternate tilines, here, in the multiverse of the Dragon Ball cosmos, was exhilarating in its own right.
"Kid, rember: when you travel through Ti and Space, try not to tamper with it." The Old Kaiōshin interrupted, his voice tinged with warning.
"Tamper with Ti and Space?" Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow, puzzled by the sudden reminder.
"Every tiline has its own flow. What you think is the 'correct' path isn't always the destined one. Even restoring it to the original trajectory can cause instability. That won't do your future growth any favors." The Old Kaiōshin spoke softly, but with unmistakable wisdom, his eyes reflecting millennia of cosmic oversight.
"I understand." Jiang Chen nodded solemnly, then bowed in gratitude.
"Alright then. Go. But don't take too long. I'm not repeating lessons for slackers." The Old Kaiōshin waved them off dismissively.
Jiang Chen smiled, then took Jiang Xi by the arm, and the two of them vanished from that Ti and Space in a brilliant flash of light.
"Ancestor!" The East Kaiōshin called out as soon as they left.
"You dolt! Did you even finish the sacred texts I told you to study?" The Old Kaiōshin gave him a light smack on the head with his cane.
"Ow! Not yet, but I'll start right away!" The East Kaiōshin yelped and scrambled off.
...
On the other side of reality, Jiang Chen and Jiang Xi broke through the barriers of Ti and Space.
Their first destination was the tiline where their father, Jiang Huaqing, resided.
Compared to Jiang Xi's altered reality, this one had remained mostly intact and was still progressing along its intended path.
Currently, Jiang Huaqing was training on Planet Nak. The mont the siblings arrived, his face lit up with joy. After spending so quality ti with him, Jiang Chen took both Jiang Xi and Jiang Huaqing and crossed into another Ti and Space, this one belonging to their mother.
Likewise, her tiline had experienced little deviation.
Before long, all four family mbers were reunited in the sa dinsion. At this point, both of Jiang Chen's parents had power levels approaching two million.
They were just on the cusp of breaking through to Super Saiyan.
With Jiang Chen's guidance, they soon crossed that threshold, unlocking the golden aura of Saiyan legend together. After enjoying a period of family reunion and helping them stabilize their new transformation, Jiang Chen took Jiang Xi and returned to her tiline.
...
Kaiō God Realm.
As the two reappeared in Jiang Xi's tiline, they were imdiately noticed.
"It's Aspara San!" The East Kaiōshin quickly stood up, eyes wide with recognition.
Kibito also snapped to attention.
"Lord Old Kaiōshin! Lord Kaiōshin!" Jiang Chen greeted them with a smile and a respectful nod.
"Seems like your little mission went off without a hitch." The Old Kaiōshin observed with a knowing smile, his ancient gaze settling on them.
Jiang Chen nodded slightly. After a bit more conversation with the Old Kaiōshin, everyone sat back down. In the ti that followed, the Old Kaiōshin officially began instructing Jiang Xi.
But his teaching wasn't limited to divine energy alone. It encompassed everything a Kaiōshin-in-training needed to know. As the Kaiōshin from fifteen generations ago, the Old Kaiōshin might co off as quirky, but he was by no ans incompetent.
The Kaiōshin, also known as the Gods of Creation, hold a rank equal to the Gods of Destruction, second only to the Grand Priest and Zen'ō, the King of All. Only the Kaiōshin have the ability to instantly travel to Zen'ō's Palace, while the Gods of Destruction must rely on their attendant Angels to fly there at imnse speed.
In each universe, the God of Destruction and the Kaiōshin form a dual existence, creation and destruction in balance. If one dies, the other perishes as well. That's why destroying a Kaiōshin without cause is strictly forbidden, even for a God of Destruction.
As the supre divine overseers of creation, the Kaiōshin bear imnse responsibilities.
From forming new worlds and guiding the flow of ti, to cultivating civilizations and observing universal order, there is an enormous wealth of knowledge a Kaiōshin must master.
In Universe 7, things didn't start off weak.
In fact, both the God of Destruction and the Kaiōshin were once among the most formidable in the multiverse. But with Beerus remaining in slumber for extended periods and four out of five Kaiōshin having perished, Universe 7 had drastically fallen behind.
Now, it's near the bottom of the ranking.
The biggest issue is that the current East Kaiōshin is far too inexperienced.
In the original tiline, he couldn't even use the Kaiōshin's Instant Teleportation technique, a skill Kibito had already mastered, which made his inadequacy all the more obvious.
The Old Kaiōshin was now making up for that lost ground, filling in the gaps left behind.
anwhile, Jiang Xi was listening attentively. As a new trainee Kaiōshin, she was being grood as the next generation's protector of life and creation. Every bit of this knowledge was essential to her.
Kibito, too, was absorbing the lessons with focus, strengthening his own understanding.
Jiang Chen, however, was off to the side, training on his own. He wasn't a Kaiōshin candidate, so the material held little value for him. Still, he wasn't in any rush to leave. He had ti, and plenty of it. There was no need to rush the journey.
And so, ti slipped by quietly.
In the blink of an eye, nearly a year passed in the Kaiō God Realm.
During that ti, Universe 7 in this specific tiline remained calm and relatively unchanged and nothing major had occurred.
But the progress made by the East Kaiōshin, Kibito, and Jiang Xi was undeniable.
Jiang Xi had successfully mastered the Kaiōshin's unique form of Instant Teleportation and had even received her own Potara earrings.
She had truly stepped into her role as a Kaiōshin-in-training.
But perhaps her greatest achievent was her newfound command over divine energy.
Under the Old Kaiōshin's rigorous guidance, she had gradually learned to wield divine power with control, finally allowing her to tap into the transformation of a Saiyan God.
However, her mastery was still incomplete. The power boost she achieved wasn't imnse, comparable only to Jiang Chen's first ti entering god form.
Still, it was impressive by any asure.
At this point in her tiline, Jiang Xi was easily the strongest being in her universe, surpassed only by Beerus and Whis.
"Whoosh!"
She let out a frustrated sigh.
"This is seriously too hard..." Jiang Xi muttered, watching as the lifeforms she had just created collapsed into chaos once again.
In contrast, the East Kaiōshin was doing far better.
On a small planet under his care, countless species had already begun to flourish, forming a fairly balanced ecosystem.
"Not bad, kid. Looks like you're not completely hopeless after all." The Old Kaiōshin nodded approvingly as he inspected the small planet held in the East Kaiōshin's hands.
It was the first ti since they'd started that he showed any real satisfaction with the East Kaiōshin's progress.
