Lord Shadow

Chapter 2067: Cause and Effect I

If it’s just a normal Sovereign breaking through ascension, while it would ripple through the Omniverse, it would ripple after or during the ascension.

It would not be like this where the Omniverse ripples, its energy signature unstable...almost like it is a sending a warning to all of the inhabitant of the Omniverse that could sense it.

There is something special in what Azief is trying to do. Something dangerous. Something taboo.

Breaking into Sovereign realm itself is taboo. Because it gathers the fortune and luck of the Omniverse into one person

But there is something to be said when the Omniverse is reacting this wildly. Almost like it is about to be ripped from the seams

This kind of taboo is like a grave error on its programming.

And that is why the Omniverse shakes

Alsurt look at that world and his eyes could see the ripples of energy. A projection of a possible but almost certain future and he could not help but sigh

"Could you not help him?" Odin hearing this shakes his head

"What he is trying to do, is something none of us could stop unless we are prepared to fight the entire Omniverse. And sometimes..." Odin was about to say something but he halted his tongue and then he only smiles in that kind of smile only Odin could pull off

That enigmatic smile mixed with a little hint of cunningness. Like he had known something others did not

In the end what he end up saying is "Even I could not stop it" Alsurt close his eyes and sighs. In this place, under the Tree of Creation, with only the two of them, the sigh echoes loudly, almost containing all of his unresolved feeling.

Then opening his eyes, he looks at Odin, his eyes piercing.

’I am not asking you to stop it. I am asking you to help him" Odin knows Alsurt wanted to know his attitude and Odin is not opposed to that.

He look at Alsurt eyes and he finally decided to explain.

"sometimes....coddling a boy spoils the boy. Some things....one have to experience it by themselves. Everyone that made their choices have to bear the result of that choice. The child had already made his choice. All we do is hope that choice is something that he could bear. This is the only thing we could do" Alsurt look at Odin with a frustrated expression yet he knows what Odin is saying is right

Azief had already made his choice and the only thing he could do right now is to respect that choice.

"No one had tried this" and then Alsurt paused for a second and then added

"No one is this stupid"

Odin smiles and added

"there is always a first time for everything" then he laughed.

Below the tree of creation, the force of life keep healing Odin while Odin is keeping watch on Earth.

Whatever happens, Odin wanted to see what that child would do. He is also quite curious of what that child could do and what he could achieve.

Even if the fortune and luck of the Omniverse is gathered on him, what that child is about to do is not something that is easy to do.

Probably that is what that child is relying upon. The luck and fortune of the world, the universe and the Omniverse

Odin could not help but smile

"Yes, since fate and destiny is taking advantage of you, why could you not take advantage of them?"

Odin laughs alone below the tree of creation, his laugh echoes throughout the entire Omniverse and to those who could listen, they hear a Song.

Meanwhile, at the same time this is happening, on a divine mountain, seated upon a white cloud is a monkey wearing a white robe.

There is a floating mirror in front of this monkey and they monkey is looking at the mirror

There is two mirror.

He first look at the left mirror and he saw that young man.

A sword in his hand, ready to cleave the heavens and opens up the sky, ready to finally step out of that world and enter into a brand new world

The monkey could not help but sigh at this

"In the end, because you have touched his life, the cause and effect changes this life of your disciple

The Monkey did not know whether to praise this or rebuke this.

But if he could have one reaction, he would prefer to praise this.

He himself however did not expect to be dragged into it. But unlike those beings, this monkey has never been afraid of some challenge.

After all, he had enter the world, let go of the world and now, he would not mind to enter the world again

Maybe he would even gain something from it

Thinking of this the Monkey smiles

He was not that obsessed. If he could gain something then it is his fortune. If he could not gain anything, then he would not mind.

Victory and losses are no longer that important to him

And because of that, he now have freedom.

Once he step out of this desire to win and transcend it, he have freedom.

And the kind of freedom of the soul that people seek but could not see.

Because the moment they seek it, they are obsessed. The more obsessed they are, the more they could not see

The things they want are in a shallow place.

The most obvious place.

But once you enter the room thinking of wanting to seek it, even if it is in front of you, you could not see it.

Once you do not seek it, it naturally shows itself.

The monkey look at Xi Feng and he could not help but smile.

"I could see what he would do and be in the future." He pasued for a second and then added

"And it is glorious" In his eyes, he sees a sword strike

A sword strike that cleaved everything!

What a glorious sword strike.

A sword strike that gathers all of "him" through all timelines and through all of worlds, unification in one sword strike, and a new Sword Immortal is born

But all of this....all of this is just a possible future.

But....it is the most possible future. And it is the future that he also wanted to see.

In the end, this sword strike is also related to that Battle of the End. Because now the cause and effect is entangled, this mortal is now acquainted with the Child of the End and in turn whether he like it or not, he would find the truth and one day step on the starry skies and would use this sword to repay that grace.

A bond between teacher and disciple.

Xi Feng.....this mortal never had such fortune in that other timeline.

But because he attached himself to the cause and effect of that child, while he is entangled in the cause and effect of his teacher.....he also gain something

What he lost; he also gain.

And what he gain he also lost.

Dangers he never need to face before in that deleted timeline....is now going to meet him.

But correspondingly, since he is about to bear the price for this cause and effect, he also gain the fortune and luck necessary.

Because to be joined in cause and effect is to share misfortune but also shares fortune and luck.

Misfortune is not the only thing that they shared. fortune and luck also comes

And in this Omniverse, who have the most luck and fortune right now?

None other than the Child of the End. Blessing or a cruse depends on who wins in that Final Battle.

This monkey had seen countless of lives and his eyes is sharper than others. Since he had seen this......it probably would unfold exactly like this.

The monkey could not help but close his eyes and smile.

"It would not be long now" he thought to himself.

He expected it to start a thousand years from now.

A thousand years to a mortal is a millennium. And some of them would not even live to see the effect of their decision and choices.

But a thousand years in the eyes of beings like him....is like a brief nap

It is matter of closing eyes and opening them

"Since the cause and effect has been established, this Xi Feng would repay you with one slash of his sword"

And the Monkey could not help but chuckle

"Who would have thought, one simple act, one simple connection...would have such profound changes in the future?"

"One could not help but think...cause and effect. He pick it up, but he could not let go. He could not let go because the moment hasn’t arrived. When the moment arrived, he could let go. And when he let go, he ascend"

He is talking about Xi Feng. He could even see the moment that this one would be able to ascended. But only if he could break that last barrier.

This word is something he utters now but this word would only reach that mortal when that moment came.

When that moment came...this word will echoes in his ears and at that time, he would choose what to do

The monkey could not help but smile
