Chapter 58: The Forbidden Dominion [1]
Tales of the past were meant to serve as beacons and reminders for the descendants after, and there were different ways to live the tales of any epic events of the past.
The most common of them was the words of mouth passed down the generations. But with the passage of time, some important details could be omitted, exaggerated and muddled up.
Records could also be accessed at the market place. There were openly acknowledged stalls which sold records and information of generally known past events. Even though their records were not totally completed, they were good sources of memories of the past.
Also, there were private sources who were selling those records and informations. But they were at exhurbitant prices, and they carried a degree of risks.
Then, we had the clans and the more powerful sects who had more complete records in their archives.
Before the Last-Sages sect elders became their more knowledgeable selves, they had known about the tales of the forbidden lands from the words of mouth passed from generations to generatios. They had also read the vague records written in books that were sold in market stalls. Therefore, they had become acquainted with the ancient tales. And then, after becoming Last-Sages elders, they had accessed the complete archives of the past.
An archives where records of legendary acts and events were kept. They had read the events of the past events recorded in this book from the copy that belong to the sect. That had given them a complete details of the events leading to the establishment of the Phantom-Ghosts realms in the Forbidden Domonion, as well as the nature of the revenants.
The moment the grand elder mentioned the the forbidden dominion and the revenants, the minds of the elders recalled what they had learned about the past of the revenants.
Records of the Revenants.
The records of the revenants commenced with the Forbidden Dominion. It was a vast space once known as the Ageless Dominion, and was located between the Nether plane and the spacetime of the Void. It used to have beautiful landscape, amazing terrain and lovely grasses and trees.
But now, it had turned to a giant landmass of broken terrain smattered with gigantic shrubs and foul-smelling grasses. A nightmare of the grandeur it once had before the grinding changes.
There were different realms in the Fobidden Dominion. Realms with distinguished appearances and qualities. Those realms were the homes of the race of mutated immortals who were banished to the dominion by the cosmic divines. It was there they lived as revenants.
Once normal immortals, they were blinded by their greed for power and quicker path to immortality. Greediness which made them leave the true path of the universe. They abandoned the orderliness, oneness and harmonious laws of creation, and followed a chaotic path fueled by the corrupt nature of greed.
Their lives became twisted by the ambition to be at the pinnacle of the universe without the proper and gradual steps of advancement. They craved the power and strength the Cosmic Divines wielded. They forgot all creations were the work of the Alpheron core. Their thoughts were only on what they could have if they were the rulerd of the universe, not what was expected of them. All those things they desired without thinking of working for them.
Other immortals had tried to make them reason on the true meaning of immortality and eternal life. They put effort into making them see the truth. With greater power comes greater responsibilities. Responsibilities they were not even ready for.
But those greedy immortals didn't listen to any words of reasoning. Their minds were already set on the path of destruction. The path they sought? A way to harvest powerful traits of the divine beasts through the secrets of their bloodlines. There was practically no way they could learn any true means of achieving that in the universe. There were no known records in the entire universe on methods for immortals to harness the bloodline of beasts for themselves. It was simply against the meaning of the pattern of life.
Since they had no means at that time, they could only dream on while their hearts grew darker. Then, their Utmost leader, Kemurah, a celestial of the giant race, came across a gourd.
At first look, the gourd appeared ordinary. But on a closer inspection, it turned out to be a valuable treasure. From all the facts gathered, the gourd wa actually a divine artifact. It was an ultimate portal to all the planes of existence. A prime divine artifact.
After many years of using the gourd, he developed a destructive idea he believed would make them achieved their dreams. He began to source for different information. Eventually, he mapped out where to find the ultimate bloodline powers. Where he could acquire powers even greater than that of the cosmic beasts.
The primordial chaos.
In possession of a divine artifact that could open portals to anywhere he wanted to go, Kemurah decided to even go beyond the boundaries of our universe. He would go for the bloodlines with extreme powers that would enable them to take up the position of ultimate rulers of the universe and beyond. The ultimate bloodlines?
The primordial beasts.
Now he had the problems of where and who, but their was a bigger problem. How to harness ultimate bloodline powers. After delibrating on the issue, all his fingers pointed to the primordial chaos as a place to find the solution.
Determined to risk it all, utmost leader, Kemurah, used the gourd to travel to the primordial chaos. Somehow, he had met and formed alliance with a powerful group of primordial beasts who regarded themselves as the Primevals. How did he managed to do so? That was a question with no answer till the present. But certainly, he had met the Primevals. The group was led by a powerful primordial beast.
The records were not certain whether it was the same primal Kamodi or not. However, from the look of it, it could be the supreme primal which fought against the cosmic divines during the great wars, leading to the death of a number of them.
Supreme Kamodi.
