Pathway To Eternity 9 Titan Lord Primus I

If left unchecked, the fear of such an attack happening again would affect the minds of the villagers. They wouldn't be able to carry on their daily lives as usual. The t.i.tan lord decided to remove the memory of the daemon attacks from their minds. Only the nascent souls were with the memory of the event. Primus had used his mindvoice to transmit his words to them. His words were for the villagers to continue with their celebration. He had already notified the other t.i.tan on Terra, t.i.tan Urdith, a blue lake, many kilometers wide. He had also informed the three monarchs as well as the 'conclave', a gathering of ent.i.ties in the heavenly plain.

The festivity continued for the following two days after the demons encounter. The atmosphere was bubbly, very lively. Food and milk continued to be shared in a joyful manner. The delegates that returned from the lunar plain joined their respective villages in the celebrations.

A week later, Gaius was planning a visit to the t.i.tan lunar mountain, but before that, he decided to check on the Amynthas. He was aware that the daemons were after the Amynthas, but didn't know the reasons. He was hoping he could learn more about what was happening from lord Primus. He sent out his divine sense and quickly came across the familiar divine sense. He sent out his words through the divine sense connection.

"Lady Reena?."

"Greetings lord Gaius. I meet you well."

"I meet you well too, lady Reena. I'm just on my way to find lord Primus. Do you mind if i stop by?"

"Not at all. You know you are always welcome in our place. I will meet you at the entrance."

"Alright then, i will see you soon."

Few minutes later, Reena was flying in the air to welcome Gaius. After landing on the ground, Gaius turned to Reena.

"The defensive arrays in this place always impress me. It would have been impossible for me to enter without you. You wouldn't even know that you already turned back. For it to always affect me thus, it's truly impressive."

"So i was told." Reena smiled gently. "Indeed, the one you are talking about is the divine oriental array. It's an ancestral treasure. We are just lucky to have them. Besides, they can't compare to yours, lord Gaius."

"You flatters me lady Reena."

They entered the cave abode. The rest of the family were already waiting for them in the living chamber. They were already informed by Reena that lord Gaius would be coming, hence they had prepared.

"My greetings master Aodh, mistress Euanthe and young master Haider."

"Greetings lord Gaius. We meet you well."

"I meet you well too." He noddingly regarded them.

Aodh quickly gesturing towards a chair.

"Please have a seat and accept a little refreshment from us, we insist on this."

"Alright, please don't mind the trouble then."

After being offered the refreshments. Gaius took one bite millet cake and looked extremely surprised.

"Delicious, how can i even remember who i am after eating all these, when i already forgot my own name?"

They all laughed at this. A moment pa.s.sed before Reena talked.

"You said you were going to find the t.i.tan lord." She paused before continuing.

"I still couldn't believe we have been living very close to a t.i.tan, a t.i.tan lord! Legends of old. Some even existed during the great wars too."

"Yes lady Reena. And he's a Terra elementalist. So much to know from him."

"We should follow you. We want to know more about the atrament and learn everything we could. If he will see us that is."

"Let's see what he thinks then."

After a little deliberating, they all left for the lunar mountain. Shortly after, they arrived at the base of the mountain. They were very cautious in their approach, afterall, this was the dominion of a t.i.tan lord. As they moved closer, a voiced boomed out from the mountain.

"I've been expecting you."

And the next moment, they were all standing at the top of the mountain. They quickly realized they were in a dominion. Looking around they saw a huge man sitting on a meditating mat, wearing a simple yellow robe. He looked like an ordinary villager having concealed his aura and his halo light too.

"I knew you will come sooner rather than later."

Realizing it was the t.i.tan lord, Primus.

"Greetings, t.i.tan lord Primus." They said in chorus raising their cupped hands.

Haider who was caught in the moment became aware of his situation, quickly raised cupped his hand too and bowed.

"Greetings, t.i.tan lord Primus."

"My greetings too fellow immortals." He replied with a quick a.s.sessment of them.

"I believe you have already figured where you are. Yes, you are in my dominion. This mountain was my mortal self before my transformation and this plain was my dominion by right of existence. Laws of creation."

"Please, do sit down." He indicated the mats in a semi-circle in front of him.

"I was born a mountain from creation, with no awareness. No mind, no thoughts, no soul. But during the rapid expansion of the universe, there was so much cosmic energy that was released. This had great effect on some things, not many, but the few recieved the powering effects of the energy. Billions of years ago, with the pa.s.sage of time, the effects on me started to show. I slowly started to gain awareness, started to reason. I started to ask myself questions. What i was, where i was and why i was. Gradually, i began to understand. Gradually, i became i sentient being."

He temporarily stopped. Looked from one face to the other before continuing.

"After gaining awareness, i continued to absorb the energy. Billions of years later, i realized i could transform into a mortal form. This was my immortal attainment. t.i.tans have their own way to eternal life, it takes longer time and it's very difficult but we do have t.i.tan sovereigns, t.i.tans who have reached eternity. We don't cultivate like you do and we don't attune to elemental affinities like you either, we are already elementals. But we do meditate to gain soul enlightenment. The more the meditation, the more the awareness. The more the awareness, the more advancement towards eternity."

He rummaged through some information in his head.

"Many years after the great war, a t.i.tan king entered the void looking for the pollonyx black star. A black core from the void. Why There are three kinds of ultimate cores in existence. The [trucent beryl stellar] from our universe , the [formless sapphire orb] from chaos and the [pollonyx black star] from the void. The t.i.tan king was looking for the pollonyx black star in the void. He knew there were dangers in the void and he was prepared. Unfortunately, he came across one ent.i.ty he couldn't properly describe. He said it was of pure black energy, in different forms. They fought for a long time but he couldn't do much damage to it. He managed to escape with his soul's avatar leaving his immortal body behind in the void but his soul's avatar was gravely injured during escape. His soul's avatar disintegrated upon entering the universe back, but not until he put the information in the memory stone. The Nefrims guarding one of the primordial gates were the one that saw him and called for the celestials since they are in charge of parading the universe checking for irregularities."

He paused. There was a rift in the s.p.a.ce beside him and a small golden jar of dew of heaven, a soul relaxing and nourishing elixir and six golden cups flew out from it. Automatically, the elixir was poured into the cups and they were served. After taking a drink, he continued.

"When the celestials saw the information on the memory stone, they quickly informed the divines. The divines quickly identified it as another threat to this universe. They called it the shimmers antramental and the black energy as antrament. That was the energy that attacked you."

This was a lot of information to process. Haider was thinking very fast. He knew atrament was from the void and the antramental was trying to kill him and his mother. Why? He knew a t.i.tan went into the void and died on coming back. Did he even find the core? What were the cores for? He had so many questions to ask, he didn't even know where to start. While delibrating on the questions.

"t.i.tan lord Primus, do you know why they are after us?" Asked Reena concernedly.

"Unfortunately, i don't know. But whatever the reason, it must be very important to them and that's dangerously alarming."

"But can they still come back here?"

"Oh, they won't. Now they must have known more powerful people are involved. I have informed the conclave in the heavenly realm, the three monarchs and Urdath, the other t.i.tan on the Yamachi continent. They would be destroyed before they even started. You have not too much cause for concern."

t.i.tan lord Primus sighed before glancing at Reena.

"Lady Reena. You need to realize what you are truly capable of. You are a powerful demiG.o.d."

"t.i.tan lord primus, pardon me for asking this, how can we fight them?" Asked Aodh with a little bit reservation.

"Absolute power or powerful elemental lights. The more powerful the light, the more powerful the attack on them. With that, you simply need to be more powerful. If you are, you won't fear that in this universe. You live in the quadrant cave, don't you? Make use of what you have." Primus said smilingly.

They looked at him with faces full of bewilderment.

"Senior, you know about our home?" Euanthe asked still with wide eyes and opened jaws.

"As a matter of fact, yes. I built the place. The initial owner is a friend of mine. But he has long ascended. How do you see the place?"

"It was a perfect place. We have been wondering about it. It is an amazing place."

"If i don't go into meditation seclusion or not too busy with stone smithing, can i come by to say my greetings?"

"Yes lord Primus. We would be honored to welcome you to our home." Aodh quickly answered.

"Please do come, t.i.tan lord Primus. As a matter of fact, we insist that you come." Euanthe quipped in expectantly.

"Alright then. I appreciate it."

"Thank you for saving us the other day, lord Primus."

"Yes, thank you lord primus, if not for you, we would have all died."

"No need to thank, i was available at the right time. It's what i'm obligated to do anyways."

Haider had been keeping quiet about the questions bothering him. He had been looking for opprtunity to ask lord Primus the questions. When his family were through with their questions and were preparing to leave, he decided to ask.

"t.i.tan lord Primus sir, i have a question sir, no, two questions sir." He bowed bending forward.

"Oh, please go on."

"The cores, what are they for? And did the t.i.tan find the pollonyx black star?" He asked in a respectful manner.

"I will tell you. They are used for absolute crafting. Absolute items can be crafted from the cores. I can craft from one too. Although, there are legendary craftsmen and smith that can use two, they are extremely rare. For the three cores? None in existence as far as i'm concerned. That's why there were not many of these cores in existence."

With a slight pause, he slowly turned his head sideways to observe his guests.

"As for the core the t.i.tan king went looking for, we are not quite sure. Though, he mentioned it in the information stored in the memory stone, we don't know if he only saw it, brought it with him or lost it. But when he came through the primordial gates, there was no black star core with him. The Nefrims confirmed it. Would that be all, young master Haider? Very well then." Said t.i.tan lord Primus before turning towards lord Gaius.

"Lord Gaius, i believe you are ready to share the pointers with me?"

"I believe it's the other way round, t.i.tan lord Primus. i'm here to learn from you, t.i.tan lord Primus."

The Amynthas took their leave and riding their sword lights, quickly arrived at their home. Every one went on their work.

Haider went to his room. He sat in lotus position, contemplating the information he had just acquired. The atrament. The cores. The t.i.tan king. The void. Only one thing he could make from all these. He needed to become stronger, very much stronger. From today onward, i would train extremely hard. How can i protect when i'm weak? He remembered his grandparents defending when the demons attacked them. How his mother sent the raging inferno destroying the demons. Lord Gaius with the Terra vortex. And the t.i.tan lord with so much power.

He must become powerful!

He stood up, removed his robe, folded it to one side in his room and headed towards the training area. He started practicing the trueworld bodyweight technique and the shifting heavens hand technique at the same time. They were ordinary techniques but quite efficient. He was practicing nonstop, no Chi, just the body weight. When he was feeling tired, he sat in the lotus position and switched to the soul serenity technique. After some time, he continued the training again. In the evening, he practiced the astral primal technique.

His training was continuing in this pattern. Trueworld bodyweight and shifting hand techniques in the morning and he would practice the astral primal technique in the evening after consuming a blue crystalline. Already, his dantian was extremely large, his meridians were enlarged hugely and his Chi quant.i.ty was monstrously ma.s.sive. But he continued to cultivate nonstop.

Time was flying by as he continued to train nonstop. It was already six months when he started on this particular road. His strength had increased substantially, but it was his dantia and Chi that had almost doubled.

It was at this time, that they recieved the visit from t.i.tan lord primus.
