”Samsara…” Yan Zaizen felt mystified by its inborn abilities. As an Imperial Law that governed the life, death, and stability of a soul, he was even further shocked by its characteristics.
”You!” Abruptly, he became frustrated and enraged. His hands clenched into fists and the world quivered. This anger was justified.
As he continued to perceive the profoundness of this art, he attempted to see if he could glimpse into the Samsara Cycle of this world. If so, wouldn't he be able to revive his parents or at least retrieve their soul? Yet…
”What is it?” Pinaka was startled by Yan Zaizen intense reaction. Even though she was interconnected to his soul, she didn't understand the heavenly laws he cultivated. This was one of the limitations she possessed as an artificial soul.
After a long while, Yan Zaizen finally calmed down. ”...If I want to revive a soul, I need the soul.” His words was bordering on common sense, but how he said it left Pinaka unable to respond.
”It's been thousands of years since my parents died, their souls are no long lingering in the heavens awaiting processing, but likely in hell.”
”...oh…” Pinaka understood now. Due to the time difference, their souls had already fully descended to hell and awaiting their reincarnation. If this was the case, then obtaining the soul was nearly impossible.
”Wait…” Yan Zaizen's eyes lit up, his hands relaxed and a smile formed on his lips. A light of dark-white flickered in his eyes. This light seemed to contain the ability to control all souls, their life, their death, and their destination.
Those eyes peered through space and an untold distance. It seemed that, as he looked forward, the world before him was no longer his world. Instead, it was a world of souls!
”I'll find a way.” As these words left his lips, he didn't explain. His hands reached out. This hand may seem normal but as it reached out souls would tremble.
”Zai…” Pinaka felt her soul tremble slightly.
”I see!” Yan Zaizen stepped out, exiting chaotic space and entering the Border Expanse. His eyes shined even more brilliantly as he looked upwards.
He saw them.
It wasn't a single lifeform but a myriad of lifeforms. These lifeforms were spiritual existences and even amidst these many odd and irregularly looking lifeforms, there was those planet-sized mouth-balls.
Pinaka, connected to Yan Zaizen's sights, gawked as she saw an entirely different world. There were humanoid, animal-like, and creatures that could only be called monstrosities of creation.
”What...what is this?” Pinaka had heard that the Border Expanse was home to many ill-begotten creatures that could scare even heavenly cultivators for a lifetime, but seeing it now…
Yan Zaizen's eyes blazed a deep spiritual light as he glanced around. The Border Expanse wasn't dark. Instead, it was blindingly bright that it seemed to reach an extreme which makes it dark. This light seemed to act as a shield for these spiritual creatures, inducing all other lifeforms into a blind-state.
It was such an odd feeling. Before, Yan Zaizen had refined a soul regalia into his brain, enhancing his senses, but that was just like lowering that brightness from 100 to 99. Now, he could see it all.
”The Border Expanse is Hell?” As he said this, he spotted a three-armed demonic creature with no legs. Its skin was wrinkly yet its face was like a baby's. This face had no eyes, with two ears that could be considered as replacing those eyes, and a nose with gas emitting from it.
Yan Zaizen was intrigued, but his previous thought felt incorrect. The Border Expanse was not hell. Instead…
”It's…” Yan Zaizen felt his mind spiral as he looked around more. He felt his thoughts were impossible, inconceivable, but there was a bit of truth within. After all, he was capable of doing something similar.
”False Heavenly Universe…” Recalling Ezekiel's words, he now saw why even Heavenly Gods felt this to be the case.
