Chapter 314: Cleansing The Origin Core
Chapter 314: Cleansing The Origin Core
—–
After having absorbed the Abyssal Sea, Frank’s soul and body were once more changing and evolving, it seems that the power it brought to him had outstanding results.
And as his body and soul underwent evolution, he noticed Terra’s Origin Core tip lying over the surface of the empty Abyssal Sea.
It was but the tip, but it already had the size of mount Everest.
It was a gigantic crystal of purple color, gleaming with a dark and eerie aura that constantly twisted its surroundings.
It was completely infected with the Miasma that was stored inside of this planet, after all, it bathed for thousands of years with pure miasma, it was bound to undergone drastic changes.
The Origin Core was the crystallization of the purest form of World’s Source Energy in the world of Terra, it was formed when the Gods created the world, and it was a powerful object that maintained the world afloat by controlling what was called the World’s Laws, which contained each attribute in place, while the Gods of each attribute were their pillars.
Such an Origin Core also contained a vast amount of knowledge, information stored from the entire planet since almost its creation, like a computer, it has been storing anything that has happened within the world, it was a data center, to an extent.
It was also what filled the world with Magic everywhere and which also constantly absorbed and assimilated the magic of the environment to grow stronger.
Frank knew of an equivalent to this Origin Core, Gaia.
On Earth, Gaia was the personification of the Origin Core of that planet. Frank was gotten to know its true origins and intentions, but it seems that the Origin Core itself is fragmenting due to a lack of magic, as all the magic and World’s Source Energy is being drained by all the powerful creatures being constantly born in this world, and how monsters are way different compared to in Terra.
Frank had considered that whenever he went back to Earth, which might be soon, he would have to clean up the mess there a bit, probably exterminating a few rampant divine beasts, chaotic or evil gods that didn’t help humanity in anything, and probably using his powers to destroy Domains formed naturally.
If he were to clean up such unnecessary draining of the world’s source energy, Gaia would be able to stabilize faster, and through the world’s source energy that Frank could get her from other worlds, she would be able to recover faster.
There was also the whole issue with Wasp and his bosses… there were many mysteries Frank wanted to unveil, and well, he also wanted to avenge the death of his parents.
Frank was overflowing with power, but he felt like he needed more, and connecting his soul to Terra’s Origin Core, which was infested with Miasma now, seemed like an ideal opportunity.
If he could directly connect to the world’s Origin Core and fuse himself with it, he would become capable of directly transfusing this World’s Source Energy into Earth!
Like this, he would be able to hasten Gaia’s regeneration and stop its imminent destruction.
And more than that, Frank knew that he would gain unimaginable power.
He extended his hand as he touched the gigantic crystal with it, infusing his evolving soul inside.
Frank’s soul, after undergoing many cultivation changes had become incredibly vast and dense, ad even almost physical in nature, it was like a never-ending ocean of bright yellow-gold light combined with abyssal black darkness.
His Soul extended inside of the Origin Core, as Frank’s entire mind and soul were suddenly infused with a ridiculous amount of information and energy!
FLASH!
Frank felt as if his entire being was being crushed by the entire world’s weight, it was an immense pressure like nothing he had ever felt before!
“Nngh…!”
The information that rushed into his mind was everything the world has ever recorded since its creation! He saw each time as the Demon King emerged, every single mortal evolving their Mana Cores, the long-lost Eras where many experts reigned, the eras where the Ancient Sages dominated the entire world, and more.
Frank used his powerful and vast mind, alongside creating many parallel minds to assimilate ad store this information, while at the same time learning even more things, transcendental truths of how the World’s Origin Core Laws worked, and even things such as the location of all the Gods within Terra, and even those of Inheritances, and the surviving Elder Dragons spread through the world!
As Frank was slowly assimilating all of this info, the rush of energies infusing his soul continued, as the World’s Origin Core resonated with him. It was as if it was trying to reject him!
Frank gritted his teeth as he continued to resist the impulse to fall unconscious, the stream of information and energy was changing him a bit, his entire self was resisting the impulse of falling before such might, the Origin Core was trying to reject him, to destroy and shatter his resolve through an immense pressure!
But Frank unleashed all of his might, his powerful will, and the will of all the souls he was connected with, he was not alone.
Like a legion of wills, he began to overpower the mental attack made by the Origin Core, as he felt like this thing wasn’t simply a large crystal with a ton of power, but it had a consciousness of its own, a mind and thoughts!
Frank decided to speak with it and confront it, rushing his mind into the deepest areas of the Origin Core of Terra!
Suddenly, his vision changed, as he found himself in a completely black space.
Frank calmly glanced around, finding that the ground was covered by twisting and chaotic miasma, a slimy liquid that constantly exuded a black and eerie aura.
The sky was completely black and cloudy, and in the middle of this place, there was a large… purple crystal, which was entangled by black and crimson-red slime.
And in the center of the core, there was the figure of someone…
It seemed like the figure of a girl, it was pale-white, with long and silver hair, her eyes were closed, and entrapped in this miasma…
Her body seemed completely white, her skin was silky and smooth, and her chest almost completely flat…
Frank noticed that in the middle of her forehead, there was a small white jewel, which was being infected by the miasma, making it purple.
There was a feeling of mysticism in all of this.
“Who… is this?” wondered Frank, from all the information he got, he couldn’t discern who she was.
There was only one possibility.
This “girl” was the Origin Core itself.
As Frank stepped towards the crystal containing this girl, a voice resonated through the entire place.
“You… Who are you?” it asked with the voice of a girl.
Frank glanced at her closed eyes, she didn’t even move her mouth, yet she spoke.
“I am Frank. I am a Half-Overseer, and I have come to cleanse the Origin Core from its Miasma, while also fusing myself with it. I require this power, I promise you that I will protect you,” said Frank, he decided to be honest.
“Cleanse… the miasma…? Protect… me?” she asked.
“Yes. I am not lying. …But I need to know, who are you really?” asked Frank.
“Who… am I?” wondered the girl. To Frank, it seemed as if even she didn’t know.
