The Outer One

The Bashe looked at an empty pool in very clear jealousy, obviously this blood would've helped him hit the peak of this realm, letting him prepare himself for the thunder tribulations and finally ascending to the immortal realm that all cultivators dream of but he simply shook his head at the thought of offending the great serpent behind him, he himself was unsure what immortal beast he was but it was very clear that he could kill him with just a thought, as long as he was here there was nothing to worry about and so he began taking the 5 types of blood out and dropping it into the empty pool, only the child would be allowed into the pool, those were the direct orders from the great serpent and so the Bashe then went to the two huge containers of milk and mixed them to create a unique White Tiger and Qilin fusion milk for the child until he would be 5, after that he directly fed the child until it fell asleep and then dropped him into the pool, where the child fell into the depth, it was unknown if the child could even breathe underwater but it seemed it was fine, what was more shocking was that the child would almost only ever wake up to drink milk and then go back to sleep.

This absurd routine continued for 5 whole years where the Bashe had to be forced into seclusion to take care of the child until he was able to absorb the full blood pool and all the fusion milk.

When the pool had dried the child finally was able to open both of its eyes but their pupils had become pure white, as if the child was blind but the Bashe feel the child's eyes read all over him and understand if he was an enemy or an ally, after a few seconds the child, whose hair had now reach his shoulders smiled at the Bashe in anticipation "What now sir?" the child said in a monotone voice, having used it for the first time, this also allowed the Bashe to realize that the child was conscious since its birth and had been observing everything from its birth "You will come with me while I inform my lord of your awakening" the Bashe said in a rush and left to go to the great serpents chamber.

After taking an hour going even more underground they finally arrived at the chambers of the elusive creature but before the Bashe could announce his presence a voice rang in his head "Bring the child inside the room and leave" and so the the confused Bashe did so without hesitance.

"Come child of the void, join me in the darkness and let me see your worth" The great serpent stated in an authoritative voice that left the child with little choice as he walked into the dark room, all of a sudden they two of them were in the child's conscience "First thing to do will be naming you, since you are the first of your people it would be fitting to call you Yuan, which means the origin or you can also consider it's meaning as primordial but I feel origin would make more sense to your circumstances, when you were born you had only the simple body of a human baby but due to the resources that have been poured into you very literately it seems you have acquired a constitution of your own, it has the power of the primordial beings of this world and its clear that your body is in harmony so lets simply put the name as the primordial fusion constitution, it probably holds more potential then this but just from looking at you I can feel the 6 auras along with the extreme regenerative powers of the azure dragon and the soul purification powers of the white tiger, while also holding the immortal flames of the Vermillion Bird along with the flames of the phoenix that it holds, you've even gained solar qi and the aura of vitality and from the Black Tortoise you've absorbed its barrier creation and extremely resistant body over the elements along with the aura of protection, and finally from the Qilin you have gained its judgment flames, basic affinity for the 5 elements and also bolsters your regenerative powers, technically as long as you don't lose both your brain and heart at the same time you will be immortal but oddly enough all your regenerative powers are sealed in what humans call the lower dantian, those powers have not settled in your pitch black beast core unlike the rest, making you as killable as a mortal" The great serpent stated uncaring of the feeling of the child while the child itself sat down to listen intently.

"Is there any way to fix that? I want to be immortal!" the child now named Yuan said exuberantly, "Not that I am aware of but that is mainly because I'm not human, the main reason you were called here is for me to remove the seal on your soul that I placed on you as a child, Yuan because you should be able to bear the qi that I've given you thanks to your new constitution" the great serpent stated and then went straight to the eerie snake in the eye of the formation and releasing the 4 souls that were used for the formation, as soon as that was done in the blink of an eye the pure white snake seemed to turn black and red and lost all rationale, attacking the great serpent but as soon as it got near the other souls it started devouring all of them without a second thought, after another hour of relentlessly attacking the great serpent the white snake finally stopped in its tracks and regained its pure white scales again and curled back up to sleep, but before that the great serpent explained "The red and black form you used was due to the influence of the qi I gave you as a child, it is the last wisp of the chaos qi, which reigns equal to the order qi that the heavenly way uses and is able to counter it perfectly, as you can imagine a normal mortal is not able to handle such a body and would very easily be burned to ashes, but with this chaos qi you can hide perfectly from the heavens, this also will mark your and my last meeting together forever, you see I am simply a clone that escaped to choose a successor to my position due to my fall and time has almost run out for me, my name was Lunmian She meaning Crown of Reincarnation Serpent, I was the first being born by the creator and was given the duty to guard the chaos qi but never cultivate it, afterwards the Heavenly Dao was born and it was given the order qi, which it was allowed to cultivate, my job in this verse was to maintain all dead souls in a coma-like state until the end times arrived whenever the creator wishes but it seems that before that could happen the Heavenly Dao gained its own sentience and would not allow anyone else to control the rules of the worlds under its reign, thus it colluded with outsiders of the verse to ambush me and get their help to kill me off, which had sadly worked but now I believe the issue lies in the fact that those very same outsiders of the verse know where our verse is and are now planning to invade it, its also why the Heavenly Dao had sent down providence bearers in abundance in this generation, its to get ready for an extreme and deadly war" The Lunmian She said solemnly, it was a heavy story to hear and she cut out a lot but this was because of the time related aspect to all this, she didn't have the time to explain all the details of the situation and could only leave the hope of this verse in the hands of this one person who clearly had the best body to harmonize the heavens and earth, the way that he would do this would be his own.
