BXBX NOVEL Chapter 168 Chaos Among The Triads
After a while, Zeus raised his head and spoke, "My Brother Hades, summon the Godkings of the Three Triads. This matter cannot be taken lightly."
In Heaven, on the palace that is shaped like a throne, Hleferoc was pacing back and forth as his whole body shook.
"Heavenly Lord, calm down." A person beside him said.
"How can I calm down?!" Hleferoc yelled frantically, "The Divine Elyseus is missing. Missing! The Heavenly Realm is in danger!"
"The Divine Elyseus still guard over the Heavenly Realm. It is its duty." The other person said.
"You don\'t understand the power of the Divine Lord!" Hleferoc wailed, "It does not have a duty to protect the Heavenly Realm, it just wants to! Once it turns its back at the Heavenly Realm and stops supporting it, the realm would crumble and fall! We could not allow such a thing to happen!" Hleferoc said to him.
"Can we do anything?" The person asked. Dispirited, Hleferoc sighed and shook his head.
Above the Heavenly Realm, a palace made from gold floated calmly. The ancientness of its existence can\'t even be fathomed by mortal men. Suddenly, the gates of the palace shook and slowly opened as the sound of a deep creaking resounded throughout the realm.
Hleferoc and the other person jumped and simultaneously looked above with joy. "Ancient Heaven!" They exclaimed both at the same time.
From the lands of the Heavenly Realm, everyone saw the sky parting and making way for a shining gold light descending to the palace. Everywhere, sonorous chants and praises sounded as the light went down slowly.
"Heavenly! Heavenly! Glorious of all Heavens! All the realms bow and sing praises for the Heavenly Heaven\'s descent!"
"Heavenly! Heavenly! Glorious of all Heavens! All the realms bow and sing praises for the Heavenly Heaven\'s descent!"
On the throne, even Hleferoc sang praises towards the light. "Heavenly! Heavenly! Glorious of all Heavens! All the realms bow and sing praises for the Heavenly Heaven\'s descent! We sing praises for you, O Heavenly Ancestor, Ruler of Heaven! Grant upon us your Divine Mercy!" He sang.
When the light had fully descended, everyone inside the realm prostrated towards the Heavenly Palace, where the Heavenly Ancestor was.
Hleferoc knelt down towards the light and greeted, "We greet you, Heavenly Ancestor Ancient Heaven!"
Ancient Heaven turned into a humanoid spirit donned in a majestic golden robe and looked down at Hleferoc, "You need not greet me, Heavenly Lord, for we are one and the same. I am You, and You are Me. You are just a different form of a Heavenly Lord."
"Still, you are the most glorious of the Heavenly Lords. I can\'t disrespect someone like you." Hleferoc replied.
Ancient Heaven smiled before turning serious. He said to him, "Do not make The Divine Lord Elyseus a problem. Even if the Divine Lord wanted to wipe out all, we wouldn\'t be able to do anything. So don\'t mind the Divine Lord." Ancient Heaven then vanished after saying that. Hleferoc had his mouth wide open for a while after Ancient Heaven vanished.
In the Buddhist Realm, the three Buddhakings gathered together with worried faces. "What should we do, Buddha Siddhartha?" One of the buddhas with red skin, wrathful face, and four arms asked the buddha that had white skin and a peaceful expression next to him.
"Fellow Buddha Vajrapani, I do not know either. This is the Great Spirit Ruler\'s first activity for the past billions of years. Not even I know what the Great Spirit Ruler wants." The white Buddha replied.
"But, Siddhartha Buddha, chaos would engulf the Spirit Realm without the presence of its ruler! The Great Spirit Ruler\'s disappearance would damage the peace of the world, and maybe another Spirit-Mortal war might happen because of this!" Vajrapani Buddha spoke with restlessness.
"Calm yourself, Vajrapani Buddha." Another buddha with the same red skin but had a calm face spoke to the Vajrapani Buddha. "It is known to everyone that the Spirit Ruler is not a hostile entity and soughts peace between the realms. We should just let him do what he wants to do."
"Are you insane, Amitabha Buddha?!" Vajrapani Buddha yelled angrily, "Could we just rely on the past to determine what the Great Spirit Ruler\'s move would be next? What if the Great Spirit Ruler became angry and laid waste upon all living things? It would mean a catastrophe upon all realms!"
"Even if we say that The Great Spirit Ruler really wanted to lay waste upon mortalkind, what can we do? We\'re not even close to his strength." Siddhartha Buddha sighed.
"We can call upon the Blind Ascetic." Vajrapani Buddha suggested after a while of thinking.
"The Blind Ascetic is also missing." Suddenly, a voice interrupted their conversation. The three buddhas turned to look and saw an old man with a Buddhist halo behind his head.
"Buddha Antiquity!" They gasped and bowed. Buddha Antiquity is an older Buddha from the Ancient Eras that survived the storms of time and space. Buddha Antiquity is the first person to propagate the Buddhist Path to the people, making him the Great Founder of Buddhism. As of now, no one knows his real level.
Buddha Antiquity waved his hands, "The Blind Ascetic also vanished at the same time with the Spirit Ruler." He said, shocking the three buddhas.
"Even the Blind Ascetic?! This is serious." Siddhartha Buddha muttered.
"The only thing we can do now is cooperate with the other Godkings to look for them." Buddha Antiquity said before leaving.
Then, all the Godkings finally received the summon of the Godking Zeus. Even though they are skeptical with the matter, they still went as to not disrespect the other Godkings.
At the round table of Olympus, the Nine Godkings gathered together. "What did you summon us for, Godking of Olympus?" An old Nordic man with a golden eye patch on his right eye asked.
"Yes, Godking of Olympus. Tell us." A man with the head of a bird that was wearing Egyptian clothing asked him too.
"I hope this isn\'t nonsensical." A man that looked like he was from the Hindu religion with his blue skin and two pairs of arms and a golden headdress muttered.
"Godkings, there is a serious matter at hand for the world." Zeus stated, "The Guardian of the underworld and the Ancestral Reaper is missing. For now, we do not know where they are."
"The Keepers of the underworld too?!" Hleferoc exclaimed with shock and terror. "What do you mean?" Zeus asked with worry.
"The Divine Lord of The Heavenly Realm, Divine Lord Elyseus, is also missing!" He replied.
"Unfortunately.." Siddhartha Gautama interjected, "The Great Spirit Ruler and the Blind Ascetic is also missing." He sighed.
Everyone tensed at the sudden information. "Then, it means that everyone of the Realmic Immemorial Beings have vanished without a trace simultaneously?" A Chinese man that wore a green robe muttered with worry. With the unimaginable power that the five held, all nine of them couldn\'t imagine what could happen.
In the mortal realm, Andre was seated in front of the five Immemorial Beings that\'s vanishing caused chaos upon the Higher Realms. "Chaos is possibly at hand. I want you to heighten your guard in your territories." He ordered.
"Lord, is that all you want us to do?" The blind monk asked.
"No." Andre shook his head, "I want to destroy the shackles of mortalkind." He declared.
The five were silent for a moment. After a while, the blind monk nodded and replied, "I will handle the arrangements."
Andre turned to the two people with the aura of death, "Daemon, Reaper, once the shackles have been destroyed, you would certainly be busy. I apologize in advance."
The black cloaked person with the huge scythe, Reaper, bowed, "I would certainly love to be active throughout the world once again." It said with an eerie and raspy voice.
The death knight-looking person, Daemon, nodded, "Yes, Lord, Reaper is right. Even if the underworld becomes active, my task is only to protect the underworld and maintain its order. I don\'t have to do much." He replied.
"Elyseus, I want you to overlook the Heavenly Realm." Andre said to the dazzling person. "As you wish, Lord." Elyseus nodded.
"Then, what are your orders for me, Lord?" The handsome man asked with a charming and elegant mildly deep voice.
"Duos, With the people having no shackles at all to tie them down to the mortal realm, the Spirit World would be busy with several if not countless consciousness penetrating the barriers. I want you to exact a limit to them so they couldn\'t be unruly." Andre replied.
"Your wish is my command." Duos smiled and bowed.
"Then, I shall do my part to help you all." Andre raised his hand and snapped his fingers. Inside the five, a faint sound of chains breaking was heard inside their souls, shocking them.
"Lord? You\'re releasing us?" They gasped. Andre nodded, "If your highest powers are sealed, you wouldn\'t be able to do my orders efficiently. That\'s why I am unshackling you all."
