Re:Immortal

The film playing on the wall suddenly began to change as the scenery hurriedly shifted. The Celestials palaces disappeared, the sects disappeared.

Omis watched with his eyes wide open as the floating mountains from all the corners of the heavenly realm slowly came together to form one giant mass of land.

It was so huge that Omis estimated it to cover the entirety of the realm. The Golden clouds were no more in their stead red ones now occupied the sky.

The entire environment was akin to that of an 'underworld' no sense of the glorious Heavenly realm was retained.

The giant floating continent was strange, with countless exotic trees and vegetation that Omis was unfamiliar with. Yet one thing was common amongst all of the living things across the plane and that was the distinct red color.

Everything from the trees, the flowers, and even the strange animals had a tinge of red to them. The scene then changed to zoom in on a particular mountain foot where Omis was able to spot what appeared to be a village.

His face soon changed into a frown as the people he saw seemed to belong to the 'Hive'. They all had distinct humanoid features with some appearing completely human if not for their extremely pale skin and red eyes.

Others had horns, while Omis even spotted some who carried some animalistic features. He watched as the people appeared to still be in their primitive state.

They wore clothing that barely hid their private parts and seemed to be made from the fur of the animals they hunted. The village buildings themselves could be barely counted as shacks while some people still lived in the mountain caves.

"What you see before you mister Omis is the original state of the realm, the untainted state before the 'Outsiders' came." Interrupted Krano as he looked at the scene with longing in his eyes.

Turning to look back at him, Omis felt a bit conflicted inside. Was Krano actually speaking the truth? Did Heaven truly belong to them? All of these questions caused him to have a headache as he pinched the bridge of his nose.

"You called me the new primordial God, the one chosen by the primordial. What does that mean? Is the primordial this chaos energy?” Asked Omis as he conjured a small ball of chaos energy in his palm.

Looking at it, Krano’s eyes widened as he leaned closer to inspect the small ball of energy.

”Chaos energy, Is that how you call it? Interesting, what you are controlling is indeed the primordial energy of the void. The original energy.”

Krano’s eyes suddenly seemed to shine as he looked at the small ball of energy dance in Omis’s palm.

”I must say, I have never seen one as pure as yours before.”

”Pure? What does that mean?” Asked Omis confused.

Taking a step back, Krano started walking across the room his finger tracing the sculptures and paintings that decorated the walls before he spoke.

”Exactly that, the primordial energy was always here, long before the world came to be, long before the planes came to be, and certainly long before any of us came to be.” He said as his gaze turned to look at Omis before continuing.

”After the ’Outsiders’ appeared, however, the so-called Qi I believe is how you call it also appeared with them. It tainted the realm, and turned it into something that should have not existed!” He said clutching his hands in anger.

”This...Qi they brought along with them could not coexist with the primordial energy, so they used their strange spells to banish it away from the realms and into the great void.”

”Hmmm, and kicked your ancestors off from the plane?” Added Omis with a raised eyebrow.

Turning around to look at Omis’s eyes, Krano replied with a dangerous expression.

”I know you still have doubts about us, and believe me if It was not out of respect for the prophecy, I'd have preferred to simply get rid of you. You see mister Omis, I am not a man that likes to leave loose ends, so please don’t give me a reason to do so.” His voice was bone-chilling as it caused the entire temperature of the room to drop.

Omis’s heart threatened to leap out of his chest as Krano’s aura leaked out of his body. Just as he was about to get overwhelmed by it, something suddenly changed as the primordial energy from the clone hidden in his eye suddenly began to move out of its own accord.

Soon his primordial energy extended out from his body in defiance as if it was beneath it to get suppressed causing a hazy dark red hue to surround Omis.

His left eye began to change as it turned into a completely red one. Omis was struggling to keep the clone at bay as it threatened to leap out, yet since it was his trump card it was best that it remained hidden.

But even with him controlling the clone, the primordial energy was still wildly struggling to free itself and retaliate against Krano’s hostile aura. Omis even found himself growing angry at Krano’s threat under the influence of the energy.

His rational side was telling him that it was suicide to stand up against Krano yet the primordial energy was roaring in defiance as if it could not accept the humiliation causing Omis’s blood to boil.

Finally, unable to control it the chaos energy came gushing out like a broken dam as Omis’s aura soared to the roof causing the heavenly palace to start shaking! The primordial energy in the surrounding area seemed to cower before his as it moved to merge with his own causing his aura to grow stronger.

Krano’s eyes widened as he watched the scene occurring in front of him in disbelief, he only intended to scare Omis for a little bit yet his reaction was beyond imagination!

Krano could feel his own primordial energy cower in face of Omis’s towering aura.

’How is this possible?! Is this the power of the prophecy? The one chosen by the primordial?’

Gritting his teeth, prophecy or not Krano was still a seventh rank God! He forcefully calmed his own energy and withdrew his hostile intent.

With Krano’s energy suppressed, the primordial energy inside Omis’s body seemed to finally be satisfied as it also calmed down allowing Omis to regain control, his eye also reverted back to its normal color.

”While I respect your strength ’mister’ Krano, never make the mistake that I am some sort of a pushover. The next time you show hostility against me, you would do best to prepare yourself as you would find out that I'm not someone you want to underestimate.” Growled Omis, a red glint passed by his left eye making him look sinister to Krano.
