Chapter 2183. Endless Obsession

2183 2183. Endless Obsession

Walker could see a large pendant that the immortal king wore around the dark cloak. It glowed with an odd light which was more mysterious than what Walker had seen the immortal king wearing before. But he could vaguely sense spatial mana. Meaning that it might be something left behind from when the immortal chasing race still existed. Judging from the way that the immortal king was shouting and slamming his fists on the ground, it was clear that he was not making a success even though he ahd made it to the death elemental plane. He clearly had some minor control over death mana, but the more he tried to force a full undead to rise, he failed. He wasn't just trying to make an undead that was a servant, but an undead that was exactly like him. Mentality and all from when the body was alive. Once the immortal king stopped, he took out what appeared to be a small item. 'Shriveled heart

Upon the death of those from the immortal chasing race, they will turn to ash and all their mana, mentality, and even what they believe to be a soul is sealed within their heart. It becomes entirely dormant so that they can potentially be brought back while their ashen body is used to create a unique form of undead called an ash spawn. Because they did not fully grasp what they were doing, the sealed mana is unstable. The only reason it remains is because of the complicated sealing runes all over it. As they never truly died, they are already technically a form of dormant undead, not that they can actually be considered living in even an undead from within the shriveled heart form. Forcing their souls to be trapped within the shriveled heart is considered a grand taboo. The only reason that has not been reminded is due to the fact that the world has been cut off from the grand existence. It will adjust over time. The shriveled hearts will degrade once exposed to flowing manas and return the flow proper. Returning a being back to life using this method is improbable due to the lack of proper body, lack of enacted mana flow, lack of intact soul without damage at all, and lack of other varying factors pertinent to existence itself.'

The all around appraisal was shocking. Walker had never imagined that the immortals chasing race would do something like this to themselves when they were about to perish. They ahd literally risked everything that they were for the chance that they could be reborn as proper immortals. An entire race that was completely obsessed with becoming immortals that they wer enot only committing grand acts of evil, they were literally causing themselves endless suffering for too many years to count so that they had a chance. They went against existence itself and committed taboos so that they might become immortal! They broke the flow of mana so that they had that chance. The dedication was impressive, until it wasn't.

Now it was only evidence of their greater evil deeds. Showing off that they were not just a flailing intelligent race but that they themselves had always had the potential for becoming monsters above all other monsters. Not just in the sense that they would be considered bestial and terrifying. No, monsters in the sense that they could not be considered as part of the world order at all!
