Chapter 570 - The Oriole Behind (Part 1) (2/2)

The cultivators present looked at one another with confusion In their mind, the words she had just spoken made no sense Not because she hadn't spoken properly, or because she had used tery they were unfamiliar with, but because what she said was i that could disappear Not even Destiny, who had been born in contrast to the concept of Fate, only argued about the possibility of fate being changed, not erased

Just as confused, the couple closed their eyes, and cos The surrounding s reached their bodies as their mind wandered into the depth of their bodies, where a pure white light resided Once in contact with their own respective lights, the couple looked through the fabric of fate, where the past, present and future of each being or object ritten

With a hint of anxiousness they sought their child's state, but while they could still see the fate of their already deceased children, of the last living one, there was no trace Their youngest, who had left the Bastion a few days back in order to get revenge for his late older brother, had no present or future No mind to rest peacefully in the underworld, no spirit to wait for reincarnation in the spiritual plane, and no physical re was left of hiolden silhouette, and suffering

Al on their feet

”I agree with your point Do as you wish” The woht after her body disappeared Leaving her husband, and the still undecided cultivators to deal with the domain's problems

Her husband, not as quick to react, turned towards the other cultivators and said, ”We will focus on restoring order, starting with our faction's hierarchy Once finished, proceed with allied factions, and wait for us before acting against hostile domains I want to see results in a year's time before that, you are not to seek the two of us Understood?”

Shocked by how the couple reacted to what the young wo seers looked at one another with confusion ”What is going on, friend?” One of Baal's most trusted companions asked His words, however, were left to resound in a roo, Baal had already disappeared

In the blink of an eye, the two ancient cultivators found themselves at the Bastion's interdiuard Their backs bent to welcome their arrival ”Wait, Rhea! Cale through the portal blue surface ”I want to investigate this as o at this haphazardly Not with thein this state”

With her body oozing a dark red emotional aura, the woman turned around Tears that threatened to fall down her cheeks welled in her eyes as she said, ”Baal if our son died, that means ill have lost them all He is the only one we have left”

Usually the ed to maintain his calm He floated in front of his wife, and placed his hands on her shoulders, then pushed her body against his chest As he felt his life-long coer and fear in his arms, the ancient cultivator looked into the blue portal His face distorted into a threatening expression, as he muttered, ”Whoever did this to us will suffer That I proate, just outside of the portal that led to Daniel's universe of origin, he stood in silence

Ever since he had found out about the disappearance of the karmic system, Daniel had felt his safety net disappear from under his feet While soh the use of karmic power, he had no idea whether the boosts of power the es in his luck, were still present

What orse, however, was losing the ability to create a path towards his goals A skill that he required not only to avoid danger, but also to find his family and friends, of whom he did not know either status or location Luckily, there was still hope for hi his syste both the chas of their systems

With an idea in in, and stopped within the Trigate He then closed his eyes, and focused entirely on the presence of kar for was not a world with a vast amount of karma which could nurture his powers as an aspect of existence, but a source

The power of Karered around their bodies awaiting for its wielder to use it Nothat may take Who was to say that Daniel could not sense it?

Within Daniel's ed to a different person, and had a different size and nature,them as unique as the people that had created the as stars But far too ht as his brows furrowed With an even greater degree of focus he adjusted the scope of his search, until finally, these lights began to gradually disappear In a few est and ative karma were left, while the smaller ones, trillions in number, were nowhere to be seen

Satisfied by the result, Daniel opened his eyes, and noticed that each of these accu a different portal, behind which was the universe that housed its source

The ability that many in these troubled ti that Daniel had created just now A feat not only possible thanks to his powers as an aspect of existence, but also thanks to his experiences with their kind, as he knew more about their character than most

Sociopathic in nature, and thirsty for power, these entities roa Of their actions, ever since their birth, hardly any would classificate as a good deed

While this was known and useless information for most champions and cultivators, that was not the case for Daniel, as the longer the champions of Destiny existed, the more karma they would accue for Daniel, as finding them hat he intended to do To find them, and to force them to create a path to his friends and fa shot, yet, for Daniel this was his best chance, as his only other alternative was to barge into the domain of Fate, where he knew a champion of Destiny was held captive, and risk an encounter with the aspect of Fate itself

Set on his objective, and without thinking toosuch a feat would require, Daniel turned towards the closest highlighted portal, and withouta sound, disappeared
