《Subjugation of Gods》Order and Chaos
Advertisement
The universe has been created and destructed countless times in cycles of Big Bang and Big Crunches. The mortals have a hypothesis in their sciences, yet how would they be able to understand such a primordial truth, without experiencing it. Only the one who experiences and studies it simultaneously can grasp its understanding fully. That one must be able to become one with the will, yet not lose individuality. One full step into the will and one will lose all individuality and dissipate within the all-existing supreme consciousness, an ending that can bring shivers down the spine of even the greatest gods in reckoning.
The cause of these cycles is unknown, some mortal beings believe that they are the will of a being beyond space and time, God. However, even immortals don't can't comprehend such legendary secrets, they say that it is because of a primal will existing throughout that cosmos, and that will is all-pervading, driving cause of everything happening.
Willpower is the asset of all beings, which drives them forward through any calamity. However, this willpower is just an essence of the primal will. Till now, the only people who attempt to hold and cultivate this will by which the cosmos exists and functions, are called Sages.

Aeons ago, beyond reckoning, two primordial black holes, one being Order and the other being Chaos were racing towards one another, releasing massive waves of gravitational waves of unobservable intensities. Both were sentient entities, existing for such a long time, they had developed their consciousnesses and were in incessant conflict. They signified their attributes as per their name(they named themselves). Even as they moved, innumerable spatial rifts were created at the onset. This happened for millions of trillions of years until at last, they crashed into one another, merging to form a supermassive black hole. As soon as they fused, an eerie sense was released out of it, as legends tell, that was an essence of primal chaos, a slice of eternal will. With such a violent fusion, a lot of the essence was diffused throughout the space, entering the star clusters in the physical universe.

In the lowliest star cluster in the early ages, after the creation, was an old man with a scrawny beard, sitting with a pot and a simply burning earthen lamp was meditating near a gigantic frozen lake in towering mountains. Suddenly, his eyes opened up and the essence of will floated on a nearby planet, with a slice of wind, he disappeared as if he never existed there, and appeared where the chaotic seed floated in empty space. Grabbing that in his hand, he smiled, a smile that may haven't been seen in hundreds of thousands of years in tiresome meditation. There was a hope of grand enlightenment, although he had had hundreds of enlightenments over his lifetime, he felt that he still hadn't grasped the absolute nature of reality. Comprehending this seed, he would surely be able to conquer his ignorance. This man was a legend among legends, the first of all sages and the holy one worshipped by mortals in current times, known as mighty God of Emptiness, Shiva.
As soon as he returned to his resting place near the gigantic dark aquamarine lake, a cataclysmic storm brew ominously in the heavens, he stared at the sky scornfully, " Six Elemental Gods! Are you afraid of me? Rest assured, I have no interest in disturbing your petty godly seats. But promise me that you would never bother my line and disciples from now on." Thunderbolts violently slashed, and the screams of winds intensified, heat augmented to a frightening degree generating spatial cracks in the vicinity. Were this not a desolate planet, by now countless innocent beings might have perished in such a destructive calamity. Slowly by slowly, faults appeared on the landmass, and the mountain roared as if in protest. A ruthless, demonic smile formed on the bearded mouth of the sitting Sage, waving his hand, he shot out five invisible seals generating dark miasma full of demonic vibes cutting of spiritual energy in the earth and heavens and injuring the spiritual roots of the offending Gods. At this time, his cold face accentuated his bloodshot eyes which were bursting with rage, he stood on the unsurmountable peak, "Have you had enough, boy?"

A young man wearing pearl white robes appeared with blood flowing through his mouth, the God-King of Immortal Realm of the surrounding Star system who hadn't tasted such crumbling life-threatening defeat in millions of years. By now all his pride and esteem in his Dao heart was unstable. With his experience, he immediately balanced himself and his emotions and gained composure. Constantly a thought was running in his mind, "Who is this guy? He is neither a spiritual cultivator nor a martial artist. His body is weaker than a young boy's, so he doesn't practice body cultivation too, nor does he use divine sense yet his presence terrifies even the ancient core of the divine realm. If he was at a higher level of cultivation than me then he still wouldn't be able to manipulate the spiritual energy itself, since that is impossible for a cultivator to do. Where did this monster emerge from? He is surely not from the Eastern Chasms mega-groups of star clusters but faraway parts of the known universe. It's better to not offend him, and make peace or let alone my clan, the whole star cluster would suffer due to his anger. " Clasping his hands he bowed down to the old venerate, "Pardon us O Sage! We would never interfere with your practices. Due to our self-preservation, the Divine Realm acted. Please forgive us and return the immortal qi within the system or countless immortals would die in a few thousand years. I vow on my Dao till I reign this star cluster, no one would bother you. "
Snorting, with reluctance, he consented, "Begone! And dare you show yourself in my presence, or this whole divine realm would be wasted by a single flick of my finger." The fingers moved in a weird fashion as to circulate without any energy and strength, absolutely casually, and the restrictions disappeared, reviving the cycle of spiritual energy throughout the star system. The young boy swallowed his saliva, his spine shivering constantly. The God-King vanished through the airspace of the planet in an instant, never to be seen again in the old man's range. Just as he reached his sect, a cold voice ringed in his ears, " I have heard the divine core of this realm is unstable, for this intrusion, you would have to let me see it. Ah! If you don't bother me, maybe I can even repair it. Come see me after 3000 yrs on here. Don't forget or anyway, your realm would fall when it collides with the the neighbouring molecular cloud complex. Hahaha!"
