The First Severing

1513 Words
As the lower realms faced the waves of heavenly lightning with the emergence of the Door of the Demon Master, Jia Redmountain could be seen standing above an island that was located in the Law Paw Empire. This island was very small and housed a little more than 300,000 people at most, this island was usually peaceful but as of right now, vast waves of lightning could be seen within the clouds, raining down on the island below. The people on this island weren't warriors of martial Dao thus their ability to protect themselves was very limited. When the first lightning storm kicked in, most of these people were long prepared to die, but by the time the lightning storm began to fall, they saw large waves of red mists covering the island. It was so sudden that they did have time to even react to what was going on around them. The mists surged up into the sky, washing away the lightning storm with an aura of death and decay. Loud screams came from within the mists which made the hairs on one's skin stand an end. Booming sounds echoed out within the deep clouds as the red mists continued to wash the island in red smoke. "Brother, if you don't end this fast, your lower realms people may truly suffer and the name destroyer will forever live on" Jia Redmountian sighed as he rose into the clouds. He opened his left hand where a ball of deep red mists was condensed. With a wave from him, the red ball fly out, exploding as it did, covering thousands of miles around. Hundreds of small islands thus came under his protection as his fly through the sky while making various hand seals. With the door of the Demon Master, Little Wolf was being baptized by the energy within. Its body was slowly transforming into that of a true dragon as its bloodline was being fully awakened by heavenly laws. It howled in pain due to the vast amount of energy that was passing through its body, one had to remember that its soul and body was badly injured when Jia Lin made his narrow escape into the Dark Abyss while trying to escape the several major powers forces. From then on, it had been staying within Jia Lin's qi realm trying to heal itself. Several years have passed since then and it had still been stuck in the healing phase, this was because the damages to a soul were either unable to be fixed or took an extremely long period of time to be done, not to mention the needed amount of spiritual energy the soul would need to fully mend. "Come, children. Fine faith in mother heaven" A sound voice continued to echo within the door as six shining lights burst forth from the lower realms. Within the silver temple, Zin Len, Ken Shar, Nix, Chen Tan, Bou Wun, and Yue Yue burst into blazing beams of lights as they suddenly vanished from sight. Within seconds, they appeared within the door's inner space, each lining a circle around Jia Lin's body that was being reinforced by the door's powers. "This" Just as Bou Wun was about to speak, his body was washed in great pain. His skin burst open as well as the others, blood spilling out in great amounts. As their blood left their bodies, they floated up in the air to form a seal that resembled a scroll. "This scroll shall be the link that strengthens the chain" The voice sounded out with great might. Blood gushed out of Jia Lin's mouth as it made contact with the seal above him. The Blood scroll started to glow with a blinding light as waves upon waves of blood energy was being transferred to the six. Mixed within this blood energy was spiritual energy heavens, their qi realms surged up with rumbling sounds as the energy within them began to increase exponentially. Earth Realm, to early Spirit Awakening, Mid Spirit Awakening, Late Spirit Awakening, and the energy seemed to still flow unending. Their bones were broken and their skins c***k and burst by the influx of energy. But even so, their bodies didn't explode nor did their foundations shake in any way whatsoever, this was because they were being supported by the heavens. Jia Lin Qi Realm shook as four clones were pulled out of his body, these four exploded into a blood mist, with the bloody mist gathering together in a fit to form one body. One had to remember that though Jia Lin was very strong, it was with the aid of his clones that he was able to forcefully push his cultivation base within the ranks of the martial king realm. Added with his Eternal Vessel body and half-opened seal on his demonic power, he was able to skip a realm and fight Soul Creation or even weak false Immortals. But once it came to the Ging Hou, who had also had the blood of past Eternal Vessels flowing within him as an enemy, he had to release the full seal and call forth the great door that the universe fears so dearly. The blood mist was also being baptized by the laws of heaven, this would help to build a great foundation for it in the coming future and it would be a great help to Jia Lin as well. So many things were happening with Jia Ling without him even knowing of them. Time flowed by and soon Jia Lin's soul that was within the Heavenly battlefield slowly woke from his pain and torment. The moment he opened his eyes, spiritual plants made of the energy of heaven and earth came into being, he could see the flow of profound qi in the air, flowing in oceans. "Truly God's eye" Jia Lin could see all things, as the spiritual plants began to grow, the moment his left eye opened, it was as if the area around him was plunged into death. The aura of death was so strong that it was suffocating, he could see blurry images passing by, he could also slightly make out blurry facial features of men and woman who seemed to be in pain and screaming. "What's this" Jia Lin's heart rate started to increase, he could understand what he was seeing, and the worse part about it was that he couldn't stop seeing it. The pain, the screams, it was all too real. "Yellow Springs" Jia Lin held his left eye, he could vaguely tell that this had something to do with the yellow springs or further known as hell. One eye was purple in color lined with white thot which made it look like a galaxy. While the other was pitch black as if it held the essence of darkness within. "You shall take the first test. Mortal severing" Just as Jia Lin was contemplating about his eyes, he heard the voice of a female in his mind. The voice sounded flat with might that could shake the world. Jia Lin looked up, there he saw a sword that was shining with beautiful lights. The sword wasn't large, just the length of an average sword, but if one were to sense with their mental will, then one would come to find that this sword was nothing ordinary at all. "There are so many tests" Jia Lin took a deep breath as he firmed his mind. Nothing in this place to him came without pain, nothing. He was wondering what was the sword for and what did the voice mean by mortal severing "The Vessel is mortal upon being born thus to transcend mortal bindings, you must sever mortal flesh and soul." The voice once again sounded out inside of his mind, when it did, the sword in the sky started to fall down, the speed wasn't too fast nor was it too slow either. When it was just meters above Jia Lin's head, he could feel a tearing pain that wanted to split his soul in two. "To sever mortal flesh and soul. I see." Jia Lin murmured to himself as the blade of the sword touch the top of his head. His soul began to split from the middle, down. When this happened, he saw several images playing out inside of his head. He saw the time where he entered the Flying Sword Sect on a great mountain, he saw the massive sword that was within the center of the sect radiating great pressure. He also saw images of himself taking the Heavens Class competition a few hundred years back, he saw where he first met Nix and the others, the encounter with captain Qin and the introduction of general Yue Yue, and also images of himself transforming into a demon for the first time. "To sever the soul" The blade passed right through Jia Lin like a hot knife passing through butter. The shackles of the soul would often bond a warrior to their mortal flesh and stop one from entering the immortal realm. Though it was acknowledged that one had to transform profound qi into immortal qi to take that first step, free the soul from the fleshly body was also the next.
