Chapter 161 XXII Celestial Rebirth

On the highest floor of the largest tower in the universe and the only origin tower that could be seen in outer space surrounded by a dozen black holes.

A man with a silver mask was carrying a golden-haired female in his arms as he passed by a large green tree radiating with life as he continued until he stopped besides a wall. With an invisible force in his hand, he opened a crack leading to a boundless gray area before a large altar was formed before him.

"Sorry for taking you to my personal realm within the infinite Chaos, but this is the only place where I can release my true body to help you reach the celestial realm without side effects." Leaving the female at the altar, the man stepped back a little before taking a look at the core he took from the demon.

"It seems that demon was even worse than this king first thought. The power inside it is only at the level of a initial phase Minor Demon, but on the other side his understanding of laws is pretty good. It would be a great balance to the holy and specter powers inside her." Closing his eyes, he cleaned all the evil inside the core leaving only the power of darkness inside it before he pressed the demon's core against her head. At first, the demon's core felt the light radiating from her and tried to escape but the masked-man's pressure would make it impossible to resist the light as it emitted. Soon, a strange connection slowly formed between Ophelia and the core before it was dissolved into her.

As for the man, he raised barrier around Ophelia as he knew the true trial would start now. Suddenly, she open her eyes which were fully black, not soulless nor lifeless. Instead they were like two pieces of onyx that lit up with an ominous and bestial glint as she released a thundering growl.

In this moment, Ophelia had turned into mindless beast without a hint of rationality as she send countless blows at the barrier, trying to escape. However not matter how much she tried, the barrier was intact while numerous cracks appeared on the surface of her skin, a sign that her body could support the fusion of light and dark.

[Darkness and Light shall combine under this King's command!] Under the sound of this voice, the powers of light and darkness fighting each other inside Ophelia's body stopped and stood still as the two powers knew the man could see them and they could not stop shaking like two cornered rats. In a second, the two powers combined into a glazed orb holding Ophelia's soul inside it as the would constantly raise her soul's level.

'Now its the last phase!' Black-White mist poured out of her body before it gathered into a huge black-white mass similar to clouds. This mass of clouds was so huge that if it was taken to earth it would be able to cover from Earth to Neptune. Merging darkness and light was a taboo for the universe, mainly because of the potential this could bring as many would say, the bigger the prize the bigger is the danger. So much that the kings from other cosmic realms would die if they tried to do this.

Of course, all of this was nothing for the masked man as the power he mastered was far above the one born from light and darkness. Every few minutes, black-white lightning would fall on Ophelia and the masked-man would help her endure some of the pain as he maintained her life.

One, two, three, four.... nine hundred and ninety-nine, one thousand. The amount of pain Ophelia had to suffer until all the thousand lightnings had fell was inconceivable. When it finished, a wondrous aura permeated the area inside the barrier as her entire being was reborn by the bath of lightning.

Bringing Ophelia back with him to the tower, All the sources of energy gathered at the space surrounding the Zelk Galaxy where the tower was located.

Feeling this change, all celestial being reached the same conclusion, the first celestial after nearly a million years has finally born!
