Chapter 15 - Fate

[A/N: Wasn't planning on introducing these characters this soon but you guys have been asking why Yun Che was still able to reincarnate so you will see why this chapter]

(When Yun Che was reincarnating)

A dark being sat on a throne of stars, its mere presence made the star gods that were kneeling before it, wither in discomfort and pain, unable to withstand its aura.

Its body was coated in a black aura, like mist rolling off it. Able to sense its presence but unable to view its true body or face.

Two bright white eyes were on its head, the only feature that was clearly noticeable. Its eyes peered into the endless void before it, uninterested.

Suddenly, an emotion flitted across its eyes, indiscernible. It retracted its gaze from the void and stood up.

*Stomp*

Just by standing, its weight and pressure created cracks in the seemingly indestructible black marble floor.

"Who dares to interfere with a chosen one." It muttered softly in a genderless voice, although it spoke softly, its voice resounded throughout the entire universe. Every living being within the universe knelt down in fear, unsure of what angered their god.

It stretched out its arm and thousands of golden stars flew into its palm, forming an image.

The image displayed a picture of a feminine young male, trying to reincarnate his third time. His soul had the trace of reincarnation and time, he was exhausting his soul force trying to break through the reincarnation and time flow to return to his first life.

The being frowned, unsure what caused a change in the chosen one. It dispersed the image and closed his dazzling white eyes.

Countless pictures flew into its mind, it absorbed every single image, not leaving a single one.

Looking through countless realities, timelines of the chosen universe, it continued viewing them.

Until it paused on a certain reality.

Discarding the rest of the timelines and realities, it drew its attention to this reality.

"Interesting…" it murmured while looking at this reality.

The stars gods kneeling before it, trembled in fear. The last time their lord was interested, resulted in the destruction of a universe.

"Really INTERESTING!" It laughed in interest, its laugh was neither loud nor soft but contained unmistakable grandeur and power. Across the universe, thousands of tsunamis, earthquakes and tornadoes were created from its laughter.

Trillions of living beings kowtowed and prayed in fear, knowing that someone or something had intrigued its god. All their prays went to the dark being but fell on deaf ears.

The being decided it will focus its attention on this universe.

It looked at the male soul trying to reincarnate, and out of amusement. It threw a piece of dirt at the reincarnation flow, allowing the soul to reincarnate.

The being did this out of amusement for the true person it focused its attention on.

Ken Otsutsuki.

Stretching its fingers, it tampered with the strings of fate and destiny the fate primordial had originally created for the soul trying to reincarnate.

Millions of golden universe chains rushed toward it, demanding to stop whatever the being was doing. The fate primordial thousands of universes away, shivered in anger at this act of disrespect towards the destiny that was created for the soul.

"Cosmic Primordial! HOW DARE YOU INTERFERE WITH THE DESTINY CREATED FOR YUN CHE!" the fate primordial screamed in anger from its universe, as countless of golden chains erupted from its universe towards the cosmic primordial.

The cosmic primordial merely sneered in response to the fate primordials anger.

Quadrillions of mortals, gods and divine beasts cried out in agony, unable to withstand the fate primordials anger.

The cosmic primordial simply waved its hand and destroyed the immortal chains flying towards it.

Spikes of cosmic energy started to gather around its universe, protecting it.

Gathering a bolt of cosmic energy in its hand, the cosmic primordial threw it and watched it disappear and emerge in the fate primordial's universe.

Thousands of planets, galaxies were destroyed in its wake, helpless to cosmic bolt.

The fate primordial destroyed the bolt in anger, before it could reach its universe and prepared to retaliate in the same manner until it was stopped by 5 other primordials.

"Did you forget? We, the primordials of the multiverse, will only settle our debts and fights through the tournament." An old croaky voice wheezed as the fate primordial stopped conjuring a string of destiny and fate capable of destroying multiple universes.

The croaky voiced being pointed its shrivelled hand at the destroyed planets and galaxies and the previously destroyed planets and galaxies started to turn back in time, returning to their former state.

Surrounded and confronted by the other primordials, the fate primordial had no choice but to surrender.

The cosmic primordial scoffed at the other primordials.

"And you, cosmic primordial. We are not allowed to tamper with destinies of mortals." The old croaky voice spoke once again.

The cosmic primordial rolled its eyes, "Bah, this why you people have become so old, all you do is follow rules," it mocked their old voice and appearances.

The other primordials remained quiet at this, neither agreeing nor disagreeing with what the cosmic primordial said.

"You will settle this fight through the tournament."

The other primordials left and returned to their universes.

The fate primordial glared at the cosmic primordial in anger, and said, "We'll settle this through our chosen ones in the tournament."

The fate primordial gave one last threatening glance to which the cosmic primordial shrugged off then it turned around and left.

The cosmic primordial returned its gaze to the universe Ken resided in.

That's interesting, Aphrodite, godking of love and lust was heading towards the universe, it mused to itself as it watched Aphrodite on her void phoenix flying towards the universe.

It left its once majestic palace which was in ruins, and its throne of stars disassembled, and the stars followed its master around.

The star gods never left their kneeling position, even when the palace crushed down on them.

Knowing its future champion for the tournament, the corner of the cosmic primordials mouth twitched in anticipation.

(Blue Pole Star)

As he practiced his void arts, thousands of golden chains suddenly clamped onto his limbs.

They tightened their grip on him, unwilling to let him go but some unknown force shattered them and new black chains with stars twinkling in them replaced them.

All of this happened in mere seconds.

Ken gasped, unable to breathe then collapsed from the faint pressure that was emitted by the chains that had only appeared for 1 second.

Similarly, Yun Che had the same thing happen to him but instead of black chains replacing them, new gold chains destroyed his old chains.

However, instead of collapsing for an hour or so, he collapsed for a few days.

(Next morning)

Ken awoke to a familiar sensation, soft, pillowy and tender mountains.

He lay in the laps of Xi'er, who was caressing his hair softly and looking at him with a gentle smile on her face.

Noticing Ken had woken up, she brought her lips down to kiss him.

After separating with a string of saliva, she asked in a caring tone, "What happened during training?"

Ken explained to her as best as I could about what happened.

Listening to Ken's description of what had happened, she was even more confused. No-one should have put golden chains on Ken, especially not on this planet.

Furthermore, Ken was by no means weak, he had two extremely powerful bloodlines, only tyrants and above can contest him.

And the black chains with stars in them, appear to be even more powerful than the golden ones.

Something was not right.
