The awakening of the next shadow emperor

" For how long will he keep sleeping? He has been that way for three days now. I've increased my cultivation of two minor realms. And I've mastered the first levels of both martial techniques you gave me. I need to practice with someone."

" It took me three years to complete this level of darkness master. And we can expect the same thing from him. He is swallowed from the darkness. And to be a master of it, someone should find his way out of the deepest part of darkness, and that my friend is a matter of greate will and patience. Meanwhile, you should keep cultivating your patience."

(It's been a long time, I think, I've been swallowed by this darkness. I have got a feeling that I keep falling into it. And I don't feel anything. No noises, no colours.

Not even my heartbeat. Did I die somewhat or somehow? But there is a single presence that feels that it is everywhere at the same time. Who or what is?)

( In what beings call " the beginning of time-line" there was a single thing in existence. You all call it energy. I'm that energy. The primordial nothingness. My particles created the creator who is just a small part of me and the darkness. In your terms, it's been 100.000 years from when the last dark emperor emerged. Are you the one who is seeking the right to be the dark emperor?"

" I don't seek anything except power. I never requested to be an emperor of darkness."

" To have what you requesting, sometimes paths, different from the fate shall be taken. And it seems that one of those paths sent you here. And now I'm asking you, are you willing to be an emperor of darkness?"

" I told you? I seek power, nothing more. If what you call the "dark emperor" makes me powerful then I accept it."

" Are you sure about that? There are drawbacks to it. And the biggest one is losing your physical form."

" I don't care. I don't. You told me that I was someone who has the will to achieve the " Dark Emperor" title."

" You will be the greatest " dark emperor" to ever be. I see that. Let the inheritance begins. And don't ever think anything that exists and doesn't exist can overdo darkness. Now, let the existence itself tremble into your presence. Feel darkness, be darkness, breathe darkness, cultivate darkness and lastly, use darkness."

Little shadow felt pain in every cell of his body because every cell was getting reconstructed with darkness. His eyes were the first thing created. Dark eyes. On the left one, the laws of space and time, and on the right one, the laws of elements were engraved. They shined in the dark red, the colour of blood and sovereignty.

In the outside world, the Dark prince felt a tremendous suppression, at the same time, enormous dark power. His look changed from someone who looked like a beggar with chains, to a super-soldier with dark armour and a great sword of the dark. On the other hand, the new generation of dark grew up directly in a major realm.

The darkness clouded the sky and a dark dragon, furious and powerful flew up toward the sun, took it in one hand and looked at him, how useless the sun was.

*****

" No shit! what did you achieve those days?" spoke Dragonhead to itself in a high voice. Dragonwing that was looking at the sun, terrified, heard what Dragonhead said and turned her eyes on him.

" You know what is causing this kind of heaven-defying occurrence?"

" I don't know how to say this but he is one of my teammates."

******

" How dare you to take the light out of my darling eyes? I will destroy you?." said Flame Empress angry at that dark dragon and immediately turned her martial spirit and flew toward that dark dragon.

******

In the Li sect, Li Nushen was training with two children who they found in the northern wall city. They were advancing pretty fast because they were training with her. At that moment she felt the oppression of the darkness but she smiled. And that was an ability she gained by seeing Dragonhead.

And then she saw a flame dragon flying toward that dark dragon that was playing with the sun. She understood what was happening and rushed there.

*****

For that lowly world, that phenomenon was seen as the dance of the dragons. Means good luck to that world.

The Dark Emperor was smiling at the sun when a big wave of flame, hot red, went toward him but passed through his body, without hurting him.

He stared at her and then smiled.

" Stay out of this, little flame!" said he to her.

" Who are you calling a little flame, bastard? Who are you who dares to take the light out of my darling eyes?"

And just then, Dark Emperor understood that he had lost his physical aspect. She couldn't notice it was him. That was until Li Nushen went there.

" Flame girls, don't you know him? He is our Little Shadow..."

" Now I am Dark Emperor. Boundless, chainless, dead and alive."

" You left without saying any word..."

" I need to go, be sure to gather beast cores. Our team leader is awake!" Said DarkEmperor and directly disappeared.

Li Nushen felt something was off because she couldn't read his thoughts and his eyes were not normal.

"Go back flame girl, we will meet in the cave territory. We all will be there in some months. He survived but he is weak."

" Yes, my lady!"

****

All the people in that world, powerful or weak, with judgments making their regulations and restrictions, would have to bow down to the ascendancy. They would have to bow down to the will of the strong.

And that generation had a group of 8 dragons and one fated emperor. They would challenge gods and open doors that never got opened in one thousand hundred years. And they all were waiting for one person. The one who was destined to challenge the peak-er.

" Next: He who was always in shadows bit had always been a good-hearted."
