Chapter 7

It was already getting late so we hurried back to the Inn. On our way back we saw people filling the town again and once again it's becoming lively. There was fireworks and many other activities going on. We hurried back and enjoy the splendid performances going on.

The next morning we left the town in the direction the Water Stone shone brighter. We climbed many mountains and fought many bandits along the way. As we were walking through the forest we were engulfed by a very dense fog due to its zero visibility, Yayan went missing. The fog took Yayan to another dimension of the forest which was created by the Earth stone. Yayan was highly trained assassin whose moves are agile and quick but even that did not come in handy. The power of the stone is magnificent yet murderous. It uses flowers and leaves as its weapon which look beautiful at first but their edges are as sharp as blade. Yayan trained hard until he can move like a wind without been noticed. Only then was he able to return to the realm in which he was taken from. He was surprise to see his partners wandering around looking for him because to him it was years but with his partners it was a few hours since he went missing. The group was excited to see him knowing that no harm came upon him. Since the three stones came together in one space their aura can be felt hence weakening the seal place on Sujin. Sujin began feeling a little rush of power time by time. The aura of both the stones and Sujin's were detected by both evil and good cultivators making them the target of everyone. They fought numerous and terrifying battles on their way and finally reached the foot of Sky City, the birth place of Sujin. Chaos broke out among sects all wanting to obtain the stones. The final piece of the seal placed on Sujin was finally broken and the strong aura of a mighty one emerged. Sujin was the reincarnation of the mightiest dark lotus princess who founded the Sky Clan and the possessor of the Wind stone. Due to the aggressive power of the stone, the dark lotus princess sealed it with all her powers and died in the process. Sujin questioned the elders to why they've abandoned her in Wanderers City and she was told that due to her powers she must be far away from Sky City as much as possible so that her seal will not be triggered. It was very hard for Sujin, all the responsibilities she has to bear all at once just to protect those who abandoned her cruelly. However, Trinix has a different situation she know it all but hid them from her friends. She knew about the stones, how to activate and even possesses one. The rare fire stone is her life essences and without it, she will be in great danger therefore she conceal it and her identity to avoid the calamity that will befall her and those around. Now, it was time to let it out, she told her friends about the stones and her identity hoping they will hate her forever but she was shocked when all they were disappointed and dumb folded about is her identity as a woman. They questioned her why she lived her life as a man and why no one ever realized she is a she. However, Chexyn was relieved that the person he admire and love was not a man at all but a woman and Yayan also reclaimed his position as the flower boy of the group. After they made the fuss about Trinix's gender concealment, they now remembered the other part of Trinix's identity but this time they were in a great shock than before totally forgotten that she declare knowing about the Essence stones. "What ?!!", they all exclaimed in harmony with a great shock. Trinix is a hybrid of Ice and Fire Dragon and one of her kind. More so, she can alternate her breathe from Ice to Fire therefore giving her a bluish red eyes. Being a hybrid was a difficult task for her. She was bullied by her peers and hunted down by Dragon Slayers. She is left with no choice than to transform into a human form.

Danger is approaching fast, all the stones being in one place lure all kinds of people and demons alike to them. They fought fierce endless battles in order to keep the stones safe. They couldn't hold on anymore, their strength was drained and the only thing that could help them is the stones. However, the power the stone holds is still unknown to them. Also Jaylyn's powers are nowhere to be tapped into since she doesn't remember who she is. They decided to put everything on the line to tap the power of the stones and suppress the enemies. It is now time for them to use it for good, just like how Trinix advices them to do they created a blood bond between the stones and themselves after that Trinix activated it with her fire essence. The stones became an essence spirit which embedded itself into their body hence giving them more power to conquer the enemies. Blood oozing from everywhere and more enemies clashing their swords with each other just to have the Essences stones. The group sustained heavy injuries and couldn't protect Jaylyn anymore. Seeing her friends injured badly broke her heart and her seal. She is the Phoenix deity holding the power of the Phoenix stone. All the four Essence Spirit came together and fused with hers and tapping into the power of the Phoenix and distributing all the powers among themselves. Each stone has it domineering power and subtle ones acquired from the other stones. They fought to protect the stone but more enemies keeps flooding in. The great sense of fear triggers the Life stone to protect its owners and therefore it created a blinding protective orb and with an explosive sound it disappeared forever.
