Soon, Yawen pulled Elijah the corner of the hall, where a middle-aged man and a young female sat alone in this desolate area of the hall. Yawen headed toward them, and whispered in his ear.
"That man and female are my nephews, my brother rescued the older one and his mother in one of his adventures, he took him as his son when his mother couldn't resist and died. As for the girl, I only t her today, she was born after I was missing, her na is Yasha. Both of them lived in, their villa in one of the biggest worlds in the abyss. No one knows who her mother is, but she is the first mber of the eight royal families of Abyss to have an innate spiritual body. You won't understand, but is nearly impossible for those bearing the bloodline of the abyss, the blood we inherited from the old origin civilization to have a spirit body."
Hearing Yawen's voice, he could roughly understand what she was trying to say. I see, from what I see, the Void king is more interested in finding more about the whereabouts of his son than beating the pri king with this allied force.
Following his Wife, Elijah introduced himself to the brother and sister. He chatted with them for a few minutes and was surprised to know Yawen's brother has rescued a lot more children in his travels than he thought. Yasha and her brother are only a two of the dozen children he adopted, however, he didn't stay much before he left to search for Yawen and didn't return.
After two hours of being introduced to the guests, all the power houses and experts of the celestial clans began the true eting. A large round table was prepared for those in the hall with the Void king and the other eternal clan rulers, the great figures of every territory.
Seeing everyone was in their seat, the pri king stood up and said in a deep voice. "As you all know, this eting wasn't prepared for fun. A few days ago in the area between the Immortal and Divine territory, a group working for our common enemy has used the Ti Palace's Treasure to open a path to the celestial world's fourteen territories. Alpha court Pri enforcer, show them the image you captured of the ss in the immortal territory."
A blue-skinned man got up and waved his hand holding a small pearl, suddenly the air around them froze and a huge 3d image appeared right above the round table. Looking closely, Elijah could affirm it was the surrounding of the immortal territory, a heavily-ard fortress in the foot of the mountain and countless villas surrounding the mountain. Powerful celestial-grade formations were also established around each pavilion and building to protect the place against enemy attack.
Seeing everyone paying attention to the image, the blue man continued."This is the headquarters of the Boram Clan, a family-oriented faction with three true immortals and a few more fake immortals. However, they don't own any high-rank world in the main universe and without enough resources, the Boram Grand Elder ca to the headquarters of the Immortal Palace to ask for a place in the celestial world."
"And this is the image I saw five days ago," Following his voice, the image changed. The family elders were patrolling the mountain when a single humanoid figure was sighted, walking forward with a nonchalant expression and a crown on his head. His eyes were lifeless and without a hint of emotion.
The elders tried to stop him, but the figure raised his hand and the elder's head burst into bloody pieces. The three grand elders, the only celestial beings in the clan noticed the commotion and rushed to the foot of the mountain with their whole armies only to see a huge silver gate appear in the sky and all the elders and disciples in than area fell on the ground with lifeless eyes. Seeing a planet-sized gate appears in the sky, everyone in the void palace's hall was scared.
"Gods! This man is more powerful than the previous pri king, we are screwed!" A yell resounded in the hall and while no one said anything, they all agreed that this silver-haired pri king was way worse than when the void king's son was turned into it.
Elijah, however, knew it wasn't the end. One second after they fell, the bodies of those people shook violently before bursting apart, and then mysterious silver-eyed creatures appeared in its place.
"Pri beasts!" The forty plus celestial in the hall breathed heavily. They knew about the pri king's ability to create those pri beasts, so of those in the hall like the old king of the tempest clan were shivering in fear. Those who lived as slaves of the cosmic heart's great intelligence and the pri king knew the terror it was.
Elijah felt sothing wrong with what he saw, mories of Peuh surfaced in his mind. He rembered all the pri beasts he t until now had red eyes, those that attacked the Valhalla academy were different as they could talk, but they still had red eyes."No, these aren't ordinary pri beasts! I've fought so before, those in the picture here are on a different level, an evolution."
Hearing Elijah's words, they turned to the blue man from the Immortal Palace. Waiting for him to negate his words, but to the disappointnt of them, the old Empyrean Immortal agreed.
"Young fellow Elijah is right. However, that humanoid figure wasn't even the pri king's true body, the actual pri king isn't from our cosmic realm, but from a parallel world outside the chaotic space. Yet, he lived among us for a good amount of ti, he is the one to steal the power of Odin's son, the first specter. If my speculation is right, he's on the verge to break free from the realm of the king, so the pri beasts he made are certainly way scarier than the one's the old alliance fought before. Right now, the sa thing you just saw is happening in several small factions."
"Right, and this is the reason I called this eting. My clan plans to fight that thing head on, and we don't want any uncertainties. However, the huge amount of discontent in this place may be a problem, but as we all have those we want to protect. I will leave a gate to the abyss open for those who aren't strong enough to this level of battle. Weak people will only give the pri king even more power."
Soon, the eting went without a problem. However, what the other territories all wondered was where the true greatest expert of the abyss was. They knew that for a King way older than the Void King, he's certainly good enough to fight for the cosmic heart and refine it for himself.
At that mont, a man in a dark cloak quickly left the city of Eternia mounted on an eight-legged beast and hushed to the north. Looking back, his lips curled upwards in a smile. He knew he would be the one to face the true enemy while others would fight here. He had a small holographic mini-map on his wrist with the center of the celestial world marked in red.
