The Legend Of Lyan 2

Objectives

Those particles resulted in humans and demonic beasts bound to the thread of fate, where when they were at the peak of the hermit, it would no longer evolve so that it could not surpass the power of gods or demons.

Gaia managed to find a way out, but the problem was…

Only the hermits themselves can break the thread of destiny.

For some reason, Gaia was also unable to meet them. He can't help in this.

Gaia's anxious.

But after seeing hermits show dissatisfaction with their achievements and always trying to reach a higher power, Gaia saw a glimmer of hope emerge.

With their struggle, Gaia believes that someday humans or demonic beasts will break the thread of fate, surpass gods and demons and be able to eliminate the existence that the universe fears, Eternal Destruction. I don't know when. He believed that one day would come.

***

After driving the Azrec out of the Emperor's body, Endless took Lyan away to the Hampa Dimension.

“Gaia is the heart of the world and the beginning of the human world. Last ...”

Broadly speaking, Endless tells the nation of gods and demons once united to defeat Gaia. They suffered a bitter defeat. From there the covenant between the gods and the demons was established. It was all because of Gaia.

Lyan, Master Gyo and Laxus could only hold their breath hearing Endless' story.

“That happened billions of years ago when I was not yet a God of Virtue. In those days, gods and demons had yet to reach the highest understanding. If the incident had happened again, it would probably be a little different now.” Endless said so but in truth he also doubted the current abilities of gods and demons were enough to deal with Gaia.

“You can't attack Gaia for no reason.”

Endless smiled at Lyan's words. “True. We have a special reason for the attack. From the beginning, gods and demons did not get along with each other. We were forced to work together because we wanted to eliminate the seeds of disaster that were born with Gaia. Existence that will be born perfectly in the near future, Eternal Destruction.”

Eternal Destruction? Wasn't that the figure Asmodeus had told him about? No one thought that existence had existed since the beginning of the world.

Endless continued, “We didn't understand why Gaia let us live. But after seeing the living things within her continue to evolve to become hermits, we began to realize Gaia was actually utilizing our particles left behind to strengthen you.”

Because of the covenant Gaia made, gods and demons had been subjected to dependency. Without the living beings in Gaia's body, they would be difficult to survive without absorbing good and evil. This sounded embarrassing so Endless did not tell it.

Master Gyo looked at Endless, “You mean, our strength actually comes from gods and demons?”

Endless nodded slowly.

Laxus doubted Endless' words. “From your story I can conclude we will have great power just by breaking the thread of destiny. Does this make any sense? How can just by doing that we be able to rival an existence that even you guys cannot face?”

“The particles that are within you contain the power of gods and demons. Thousands of years ago I could feel the strength of three hermits almost as equal to a low-grade demon. It was a time when they had only managed to absorb a small portion of the particles. If they managed to absorb all the particles, not only would it surpass high grade demons, Gaia's equivalent strength would most likely be obtained.”

Endless continued again, “The bad news.The three hermits are now almost successful in doing so.”.

Master Gyo had already fought three hermits, he knew how bad they were. If they managed to become god-men, the world would definitely be on the verge of destruction.

“Absorbing particles is not an easy thing to do. Three hermits have done it thousands of years faster than us. Do we have a chance to catch up with that?”

Endless smiled. “No need to worry. The God of Virtue, Ra Horakhty has found a way to help you do it. But at this time I can't bring you guys to meet him.” He looks towards Master Gyo and Laxus. “You should get back your body first.”

Endless split their group in two. Lyan's group will go to the Light Continent to search for Master Gyo's soul pieces, while he will remain in the Dark Continent with Laxus and some of Lyan's other comrades.

Endless will awaken their pent-up potential. When the time comes, they will be in charge of finding Laxus' body again.

Lyan was quite relieved to hear Endless was willing to help improve the abilities of his comrades. The problem is only one.

“I can understand that teacher Light is coming with me. And Yuna her strength was already at the peak of the sky energy right now. But it's Youl... Shouldn't he be trained by you? Because of that Light Continent..”.

Lyan realized the Light Continent was not an easy place to deal with. Given how powerful the Roo Tribe King used to be, it is possible that there will be a much stronger opponent. Light and Yuna might be able to handle it, but you? He doubted the tiger could survive.

“Looks like you realize the continent is dangerous. As you expected, that demonic beast will have a hard time. But he is a wild creature. To develop his potential, he had to experience the situation. The experience of fighting will make him grow. It would be the best decision if you brought him.”

Lyan thought for a moment.

During the two years that Soul had left on Light, the demonic beast had already developed quite strongly. However, long before that Youl was just a weak little tiger. After going through various obstacles with him, the little tiger continued to show progress and grew stronger.

And now, that tiger was already at the mid stage sky energy level. It's not weak. There is nothing to worry about, except his bad behavior that always puts himself in danger. Maybe Lyan just needed to warn him not to take any rash actions.

“Alright, it looks like I should indeed bring it.”

“All has been decided. We're gonna get out of here now. But before that..some need remind.”.

“What is it?” ask Lyan.

“You may already know if the Light Continent is dangerous after facing the Roo Tribe King. But know it there is much more dangerous than you imagine because the outcast demons rule the continent.”
