Origin Mystery Space

The initial stage of the second trial had ended and all the participants, due to some unknown phenomenon were transported to a strange space. 

"This, it's the same!" White after he had been transported into a familiar dark place by some power felt a sense of familiarity with the dark surroundings. "The dark pathway before that leads to the second trial ground!"

Saying this, White involuntary took some step back. 

White couldn't forget the event last time he was on this pathway, he had suffered and was sent to that scary place of that scary woman. Thinking of that place he still has some lingering fear as he could have died thousands of times if he had made any mistake.

'She said to come back once the trial is over.' White thought glazing at the ordinary black ring seated on his finger, his further thoughts were unknown as going or not going could both mean danger.

If he go now and she have some meticulous intent, what would he do? On the other hand, if he doesn't go and she becomes furious; developing some murderous intent, then what?

Right now, he couldn't afford to have an enemy of that caliber.

He looked around for the other people but even a figure of a single human was nowhere to be seen. For the time being, it was only him and a door-shaped portal some distance away!

White took a closer look at the portal and could guess that, it was a path leading somewhere. Without wasting any more time, he walked toward the magical pathway and disappeared within it.

White perspective shifted from the dark surrounding to a piercing bright light. This light was so bright that he had to squint his eyes a little and if it had been before he entered the second trial four days ago; before achieving the physical and perspective enchantment, then he suspected his eyes would have been blinded from the bright light but, he adapt to it quickly and let the teleportation force shift his body somewhere.

In no time, he felt his feet touch a ground that wasn't quite a ground, and the piercing bright light reduced. By this time he could see properly, he still didn't see any people before him but something more amazing.

Looking up high above the sky, there wasn't a desolate sun or a waning moon he saw in the outer world of the Other Side, but only numerous resplendent dots of stars lighting up the beautiful dark firmaments.

He could feel that these stars weren't ordinary and the light it gave off had given some strange feeling to White's heart, as though the stars he was seeing here were completely different from the ones he was used to seeing under the normal night sky.

'Stars?' White mutters slightly under his breath but inwardly shocks his head. He had countless stars during his fifteen years at the Moss village but they were different from the ones here; the ones here were very close to him and gave off a sense of profound mysticism. 

This was the most beautiful of their kinds he had seen and was even somehow mesmerized.

"What is this place?" White snapped out of his revere and looked around the place but he couldn't see anyone or anything; it was only him, the silent space, and the mysterious resplendent stars.

But at the next moment, the silence space broke and a divine voice resounded in the space. This voice unlike anything he had ever heard didn't sound like any ordinary person, but that of some celestial being; It was pleasant, ethereal, and shooding to oneself upon hearing.

"This is the Origin Mystery Space, the lifeline of masters, gods, and immortals. This space at the beginning of everything, and the space at the end of everything."

White took several steps back upon hearing this voice, he looked for the origin of the voice in his surroundings but confirmed that there was no one. He was surprised by the things it said and he couldn't help but suspect that it wasn't a person who spoke just now.

"Gree–" Just when tried to speak, the divine voice continued; seeming to not hear him.

"In this place, the final phase of the second trial will be conducted and start your life as a master."

"In this phase, the primal seeds and this space will fuse to you and you will reach the Major Changes and next become a pseudo master, if your talent permits you will awaken your soul and unravel its true form; awakening a Blessing."

As soon as the voice finished, the space started twisting and turning as it enveloped White's body, starting from his legs and climbing to his waist until it enveloped all of his body.

White at such an unexpected turn of events, struggled somehow with his enchanted physical strength but was usedless. Suspecting that escaping was impossible, he calmed down as the dark space covered the last bits of himself and turned the place into the initially strange silence.

At this moment, White entered a strange state, his senses dulled, and couldn't feel and perceive his surroundings anymore. But at the last moment, he felt as if a mysterious force invaded his body and started to undergo a strange process.

At this moment, if one were to see the Unity of his token one would notice the percentage that remained unmoving during his last moment in the second trial was starting to change!

It wasn't only White who was undergoing this process, everyone was undergoing the same process but somewhat differently.

Golden was in a similar process as the silent space covering her body and causing changes that were impossible by just using primal seeds, but unlike how White reacted, she was eerily calm and seemed to expect it. She seemed pleasantly pleased with the process.

Luu, Ruu's group were scared out of their wits at the magical yet horrifying process they were going through, they felt as if they were going to lose their life today after everything they had been through.

White felt his being change an unknown power was running through his body for a long time, changing him. He felt as if this power was cleansing his whole self, adding something magical and unexplainable to his being.

He had to endure this feeling for an unknown amount of time and after an unknown amount of time, the divine voice resounding on his mind.

"Unity of body and soul completed."

'Unity of the body and soul?!' a vague thought sprang upon his mind,

With his vague self in the darkness, the divine voice continued,

"Beginning the awakening of the being."

At the next moment, White didn't have time for any thought as a mysterious divine force gushed into his body like the water from a broken dam; destroying any obstacle in its path. White felt if he was normally present he would vomit out all his innards and everything inside him.

White felt great pain he hadn't experienced before, but he didn't scream or shout and remained indifferent. But if one could see his expression they would see a side of White they would rarely see as sweet dripping all over his face and seem to be in agony.

Fortunately, the great influx created by the divine force subsided like a residing tide as if it had achieved its goal.

Ching!

A melodious divine sound resounded with the inner dark space and everything that happening to White stopped. But as soon as it stopped, White didn't get a chance to see what was happening to him and immediately fell into an unconscious state, as for whether it was from the suffering or something else, it was unknown.

The dark space existed as it ever had but the divine stars seemed to light up, seeming to be indicating something.

…

On the other side, the dark space that hosted Golden's body and the same divine star.

Inside the fabric of the dark space, Golden's resplendent eyes were opened and displayed conflicting and complicated emotions when looking at a certain object.

Unlike White's conditions, she didn't seem to undergo any painful and agonizing process and was perfectly fine.

The object she was glazing upon was a drop of floating golden liquid with a mysterious reddish hue. The floating drop was extremely magical to look at and seemed to contain some divine aura that could illuminate the unknown dark space.

No one could tell how much time had passed as she gazed at the magical object, but it ultimately came to an end as she let out a sigh internally, closing her eyes she seemed to have come to some decision that would change her fate forever.

'I will have to change my original plan, hope you don't let me down, my mysterious fate.' as the magical object disappeared, a mysterious thought rescinded in her mind, as for who she meant in her thought, no one knows.
