Episode 6 : The gate of pure souls and lightning artifacts

Chapter 11: Gate of Pure Soul

After attending Boakarsa through the dark hallway in the temple, Wira and her friends finally arrived at a large gate. The gate was made of black stone filled with ancient carvings that looked sparkling, radiating a mysterious aura. Once they approached, Boakarsa stopped and turned to Wira.

"Here, only you can enter," Boakarsa said in a meaningful voice. "This gate can only be passed by a pure soul. No one can enter other than you, Wira Candra Tirtha."

Wira was astonished to hear that. "What do you mean, Boakarsa? I don't understand."

Boakarsa explained calmly, "This gate tested sincerity and purity of the heart. Only a soul that is not filled with hate, revenge, or lust, can pass this threshold. That is why, only you can enter. You who bring this artifact, And only the pure soul can withstand the burden hidden behind this gate. "

After hearing that explanation, Wira fell silent for a moment, pondering Boakarsa's words. "So, I have to enter alone?" asked Wira, still not sure.

"Yes," answered Boakarsa. "If you really want to find a way to Mahaguru Shakra, you have to pass this test alone."

With doubt, Wira stepped forward, approaching a large gate that opened slowly in line with her steps. As soon as he passed the doorway, suddenly everything became pitch black. There is no light, just a tense silence. In that darkness, strange sounds began to be heard. The sound of crying, the sound of battles, and screams that seemed to come from the past, enveloped Wira.

"W-What is this?" Wira asked, her body trembled in fear. "Why is it like this?" The voices were getting louder, as if pressing his mind, made him almost unable to breathe. Wira felt restless, confused, and fear mixed. "What happened? Why do I feel like this?"

His body began to be weak, and he almost fainted. "I can't stay here," murmured Wira. "I have to continue this trip."

With a burning determination, Wira sat on the ground, trying to calm herself. He closed his eyes and began to combine his spiritual science with the medicine he had learned. With full concentration, he tried to control himself, unite the power in his body, and focus his attention.

Suddenly, the strength in him began to flow, and strange sounds that filled the space began to subside. Slowly, the darkness disappeared, leaving Wira in a state of silence.

A heavy voice full of wisdom suddenly heard in his ear. "Wira Candra Tirtha ... Finally, you arrived too." The voice recognized him as the voice of Mahaguru Shakra.

"Mahaguru Shakra ..." Wira muttered, opening her eyes. In front of him, the figure of Mahaguru Shakra, an authoritative man with the aura of peace surrounds him.

Welcome, Wira Candra Tirtha. I've been waiting for you," said Grandmaster Shakra with a peaceful smile. "I know your journey is not easy. Now, you have arrived at this place, a place full of tests of soul and strength."

Wira bowed respectfully, feeling honored to meet Mahaguru Shakra. "Thank you, Grand Master. This journey has been full of challenges. I have met many Grand Masters, and each step brings me closer to my goal."

Grandmaster Shakra nodded, "Your journey has only just begun, Wira. We, the Grand Masters, have been waiting for your arrival for a long time. You are the key to uniting the scattered artifacts, and balancing the forces of the universe. However, your test is far from over."

Wira raised his face, full of curiosity. "I've already found two artifacts, Grand Master. However, there's still a lot to face, right?"

"That's right," answered Grandmaster Shakra. "Each artifact brings you closer, but each step will also test your determination and pure soul. Be prepared to face more challenges. Because only those who are ready, can reach their ultimate goal."

Wira nodded confidently, ready to continue his journey. "I am ready, Grand Master. I will continue this journey, to unite all the artifacts and fulfill my destiny."

Grandmaster Shakra smiled. "We believe in you, Wira Candra Tirtha. Keep walking, and never give up. The balance of this world is in your hands."

CHAPTER 12: The third artifact that issued lightning

In front of Wira, Mahaguru Shakra raised his hand, and from a quiet air, suddenly a big light appeared in front of them. The light shines brightly, almost makes Wira fascinated, and in an instant, the form of an artifact that issued lightning appeared in the hands of Mahaguru Shakra.

Wira was surprised and took a little back. "Is that the third artifact, O Mahaguru?" Asked Wira, his eyes could not take his eyes off the artifacts that shine with the thunderous lightning energy.

Mahaguru Shakra smiled wisely and nodded. "Yes, this is the third artifact you are looking for. However, as you know, every artifact you meet you must combine with the artifacts you carry. But be careful, Wira. This artifact will drain your energy, even more than before .

Wira stared at the artifact with determination, even in his heart, he felt a little afraid. "I'm ready, Mahaguru. I'll do it."

Mahaguru Shakra gives a signal to start. "Combine the two artifacts, Wira. Don't hesitate, believe in yourself."

With a heart full of courage, Wira raised the artifacts he brought and brought it closer to the third artifact in the hands of Mahaguru Shakra. Once the two artifacts met, a very strong aura of energy appeared, radiating out and around Wira. The thunderous lightning grabbed in all directions, making Wira almost staggered by that power. The energy that flows through his body is so large, as if his whole body wants to be separated from the uncontrolled power.

However, Wira still survived. With all the forces in him, he focused and calm down, directing the flow of energy in accordance with his knowledge. In an instant, the two artifacts began to fuse, and in a light explosion that blurred the entire space, the two artifacts finally fused, turning into a glowing sword that took out lightning. The sword sparkled with very bright light, and lightning grabbed around the sword, showing how strong the energy in it was.

Wira was panting, feeling very tired because of the amount of energy drained, but she was satisfied. "I succeeded ..." Wira said with breath panting, looking at the sword that is now in his hand. The sword was sparkling with such charming light, the lightning surrounding it gave the impression of an unlimited strength.

Mahaguru Shakra smiled with satisfaction, his eyes radiated pride. "You are really extraordinary, Wira Candra Tirtha. You have followed in your teacher's footsteps, Empu Tirtha. Indeed, your destiny is to unite this artifacts, just like your teacher."

Wira looked down with respect. "Thank you, Mahaguru. But, I want to know more about my teacher, Empu Tirtha. What makes it so important in this trip? And what makes this artifacts so strong?"

Mahaguru Shakra looked at Wira with a meaningful look, then he began to tell the story of the forgotten past. "Empu Tirtha is a very strong and wise student. He is not only an expert in spiritual science and treatment, but also key holders of ancient artifacts who maintain the balance of the universe. The world remains balanced. "

Mahaguru Shakra continues the story, "However, in the course of time, dark power appears who want to control and manipulate the power of this artifact for their own interests. That is why this artifact must be divided, so as not to fall into the wrong hands. Empu Tirtha, As our leader, decided to hide this artifact and distribute their strength to the elected people, including you, Wira. "

Wira listened carefully, increasingly understanding of her role in this destiny. "So, I am a part of a big destiny that starts with my teacher, Empu Tirtha?"

"Right," answered Mahaguru Shakra, his eyes sparkled with wisdom. "Now, you must continue this struggle. The power that is in you is the power inherited from Empu Tirtha. And only you can unite all these artifacts to maintain the balance of the world."

Wira grasped the sword stronger, her determination was getting rounder. "I will do it, Mahaguru. I will continue this struggle to maintain the balance of the world, and fulfill the destiny that has been outlined for me."

Mahaguru Shakra smiled again, feeling confident that Wira would be able to continue this journey with courage and wisdom.
