Chapter 462: Back Home

While Dreamscape weaved through the void, the rest of creation was experiencing some interesting changes, to say the least, especially since the culling has been proven to be the least useful path to harvest fate, many Primordials started looking into other ways to harvest the fate of the universes under their control.

Trial and error became rampant. The Primordials have already solidified their chosen Laws, many of them focused on a single law to identify their domains with a few supplementary Laws sprinkled to round up the domain.

Unlike Yunan who was still collecting and understanding the different Laws, they could not just absorb the fate of a random universe and that was that. they had to filter out the Laws they could not use and either share them with allies or reinject them in other universes to create something worth trading with other Primordials.

As a result of the many ways Primordials proceeded to experiment in, the void became rather lively, the Primordials who once were mutual enemies, for the most part, a sort of community had risen around the discoveries that have come about thanks to the actions of Yunan, most of which the lucky little thing did not even know about.

Although the lesser Primordials were still itching to kill Yunan before he decided to ascend, many of them stood at the ready, they were just the cusp of being weak enough to serve as feed for his ever-growing power, especially with that weird divinity of his, it was something new, and even if the brats domain was unique, there was a precedent of the Effort Divinity devouring other divinities to sustain and grow itself, that meant that as long as one was in the range of being devoured they had to tread very carefully.

Among the greater Primordials, the leading four were also starting to become active again, much to the dismay of the lower primordials, the eldest ones were truly extremely old, they have been part of a cataclysmic event that ended with the near annihilation of the Primordials, leaving only the four of them. They had witnessed the birth of the rest of the Primordials and have killed enough of them just to make a point, or out of boredom.

The greater primordials getting active was in preparation for their last moment. They had all sensed it was their time for their domains to be inherited, although they did not care much about the ascension of people who would take over their domains, they were thinking about payback for the cataclysmic event.

For now, their favourite experimental subject was in need of purer Laws to work on. The four decided to help the kid by giving up some of their best faith generating universes. Not that they did not need faith to keep their lives until their inheritors were ready, they were planning on giving their accumulated gains to Yunan. As for their inheritors, why did they have to care? They too had to work hard to gain their positions as Primordials.

In some remote location under the great eye, Fortuna, Death, Tasha, Hephaestus and Apophis were all gathered atop the entrance to a half-dead universe, the power of Null was preserving it but it was obvious that power like Null's would not keep it "alive" for long.

The quintet was still hesitating to enter the universe, even if they were told to get in by their Primordials, they still had an instinctive fear towards Null's domain. They looked up at the four Primordials from antiquity who had gathered to see them in.

Bringing life back to a fateless universe was a strange thing, even with her presence, Fate, the Primordial of fate, luck and destiny, it was still something that has not been attempted in a long time, perhaps it happened somewhere beyond the gazes of these four Primordials, but it was a first for them.

Watching these gods enter was nothing but a mere impulse, they wanted to see if the altered fates of these gods would do something to the fateless universe.

Null, his domain contained nihility, emptiness, nothing and decay. Fate, her domain was the most limited yet the most mysterious, it included Fate, Luck, Destiny and a smidgen of karma. All, everything, chaos, order, and almost everything in creation stood under the banner of All. Creation, building, smithing, transforming, growing and the likes rested under the umbrella of Creation.

Tasha held the most trepidations about returning to her home universe. Seeing its current state was already making her feel bad and lost, she did not know how it will feel when she actually felt the old Laws touch her divinity after so long.

Although she discarded the divinity she started with originally, as a god that ascended in her home universe, she would still find herself linked to this place. And that link was what saddened her most, she had spent untold years in the council in an attempt to save this universe, only to give up on it in the end.

With many eyes on her, she smiled at her companions and took the first step inside her old home, as soon as she got in, she could feel the welcome from the universe, although it did not feel like much, she knew where she was and how to navigate her way, she knew where her home planet has ended up, where her divine kingdom's ruins stood abandoned and desolate.

Behind her came the other four one by one, Death had it easiest, he did not face much rejection from any universe unless it was heavily invested in the Laws of life, Apophis was unconcerned about the rejection, he would just take it as a boost to his chaos Laws. Fortuna was just oo lucky to face harsh rejection, meanwhile, Hephaestus was shouldering the most for rejection for his friends, he had enough artefacts on him to take even a bit more without having to tap into his avatar status.

Normally, no universe would reject an avatar, as all universes were an amalgamation of too many Domains, evoking avatar status will grant one unhindered access to most universes. But these four gods did not use their avatar status, it was best for them to get into contact with as many Laws as possible. Only that way they can identify which ones are still active and which are needed to be repaired or replaced.
