An infant is born, drifting along the wonders of the universe, forever untouched by the river of time. Unaware of the constant cycle of life and death by every universe that crumbles, every stars that supernova, and every planets ruined by their inhabitants.

However, the infant continued to be untainted by such a cycle, endlessly drifting with sublime supremacy. Unfettered by the laws of the universes, interweaving the transparent threads as one.

As this being slowly matured, they began to observe curiously of the life within the void. They observed these beings born from planetary life. These new life was filled with vigor and spirit, shrouded in the mystery of their emotions.

They spoke to each other in weird gestures, sometimes actions, sometimes bellowing in anger or excitement, crying in joy or sadness, laughter, lies, and deceit following after. Some even died over a piece of crumb while others, a piece of shiny metal.

It seen friends, for many years, suddenly turn enemies over an item or another being, usually the opposite sex. Soon, its curiosity overtook its mind as they began mimicking these beings. Traveling numerous lifetimes, becoming indefinitely stronger each time.

They enjoyed the miniscule monotonous routines, sometimes reliving insipid scenes in each new rebirth.

A cycle of existence.

One day, reborn once again, they found themselves in a world of cultivation. It searched for the way of life, a path to push forward. Something these cultivators called Dao. Evenso, this being was already powerful, brimming with otherworldly knowledge.

Finally, it birth a wisp of its own soul.

Finally it bore its own emotions.

They found a rare emotion of joy in this cultivation world. Satisfied with their life and death friends, but soon, it learned of Fate. Alas, with the knowledge of Fate, it tasted bitter defeat. It felt the betrayal of long time friends, deep anger, unresolved revenge, and abandonment from the world around it.

This was not the void that spoiled it but the so-called Heavens that reign in these worlds. The so-called Fate that is controlled by these contemptible Heaven or Heavens. With its own strength, they caused an undeniable sensation. Heaven quivered in fear before its wrathful strength. The shackles of Fate no longer bounded its existence.

It finally understood its true existence from being born in the void.

. . .

'I was born from nothing, but with life, I gained something.

One day, I will truly die forever.

Perishing within the void that birth me.

Yet, the void will still continue to exist.

Life and Death will continue its cycle.

Time will continue to flow forward.

I was alone within this void until my own soul came into being.

I bore these heartfelt emotions, building millions of relations with millions of beings through many lifetimes.

Yet here I am, drifting carefree in this void again.

We are born from the Earth, we are born from the Heavens, we are born from universes that lives within the void.

However, we are also born from that very void that let us live freely, unfettered by its dominance over everything.

The void cannot restrain me, neither can I restrain the void.'

**Hong Long Long . . .

Resplendent light gathered around the being drifting in the void. The void heard its childs call, assisting its transformation. As the light faded out into oblivion, a tenebrous crow with two starry eyes and a violet eye in the middle of its forehead appeared. Tremendous amounts of energy fluctuations began unfurling across the vast void, shaking many universes in the process.

'I am born from nothing yet the void cannot restrain me.

Neither can I restrain the void.

I can feel and see these other forms of life, born from the void.

I shall dub them Primordial Souls and gather them to create the Nihility Clan!

Killing each other, as they are kin, are forbidden.

Even those lingering Vehement Souls who stumble across and born from the void, too!

But my inheritor can lift the curse, allowing them to kill!

They can kill these Primordial Souls and Vehement Souls as they please and no harm can befall onto them!

They can bend, change and destroy the rules of the Nihility Clan!

They can alter these beings Fate!

Only those who can challenge and overcome the Fate of the Void, besides the inheritor, can become the truest void being to I, Xyen!'

**Krrrrrchek (sounds of shattering/cracking)

**Oooommmmmm (a power up noise . . .)

Silver opened his eyes after receiving the memories of Xyen, the first Primordial Soul and creator of Nihility Clan. Blinking once, he looked around to see only the darkness of the void as his slow drifting came to a halt.

Soon after, Silver closed his eyes once more, sorting all the information he inherited from Xyen while inspecting his new body. He could feel that every fiber of his being was brimming with power. A strength he would of never reached in his past life.

"I see you're finally awake, it hasn't been too long since you're not in the confines of time," spoke the feminine voice.

"I envy you, that intense passion and resolution really struck me! Rarely do I get to see such a scene.

Ahahaha, you are the first inheritor that succeeded in the last trillions of years! The last 3 couldn't even obtain it so I stuck them in different parts of the void to watch the universes out of pity.

Although, they are quite stronger than you but time will only tell. You're definitely better than that despicable three-eyed crow, Xyen . . . so, how do you want the Nihility Clan to live, successor?"

"Let them be free without worries of not having a home. I want all of them to be able to return anytime they want but with an added twist. Those that betray the whole void race with hidden unjust agenda, they will immediately lose their abilities. They will no longer carry, not even a miniscule, of the Void Bloodline. Thus, they can either be killed or expelled by the current clan leader!

Only those with absolute standing, an impartial yet kind heart and a truly powerful individual can lead the Nihility Clan. I will leave it to my master, since he's the only one who foots the bill. At best, I'll deal with those foul eight that I've seen. I feel the ninth one is a bit more complicated, since they weren't there. "

"Quite the vengeful person, I like it. If you have anymore, you can do as you please since I, nor Xyen, no longer need to worry about the clan anymore. And don't worry much either," informed the feminine voice as it faded into the void.

"What do you m--"

Before Silver could finish asking, a powerful energy pushed him out of the void. Soon, he found himself back in front of the Temple of Knowledge, standing in front of a middle age man wearing black and white clothing.

"I don't know much what that clan does, but this world's custom is different, you know?" joked the middle aged man, also suppressing most of his laughter and tossing a spatial ring at Silver.

"Here's your stuff."

"Blacky?" inquired Silver, grabbing the ring with a face flushed with scarlet red and escaping into the void.

Not long after, Silver came out of the void, awaiting for the middle-aged man's answer.

"I thought this form was convenient," answered Blacky, giving himself away.

"Can you tell me what happened while I was in the Ethereal Expanse?"
