Chapter 111 - Enlightening Discussion (2)

"Divine Throne?"

It was the first time I heard about that term; even when Hela talked about Astral Boundary she didn't mention anything like that. I only knew that the higher possible level one could attain in any Universe was a pretty obscure level.

It was called just a Great Old One.

"As you still didn't go through the memory package of Longinus Dreizhen Orden, allow me to introduce you to Universe Energy Level. You see, every Universe has something we call an Energy Level. The higher it is, the easier it is for people to get stronger, more experts will appear, more treasures will be created, and more advanced civilizations will become. When the Universe Energy Level crosses a certain threshold, a Divine Throne will be birthed out by the Universe. When someone sits upon a Divine Throne, he becomes truly omnipotent in that Universe, and only another Divine Throne can fight him. When Divine Throne is birthed, there is usually a grand war for the Divine Throne. When the last Divine Throne was birthed in my home Universe, countless powerhouses were killed, and many worlds were destroyed."

Explained Jade Emperor Okhwang.

"Does the Astral Boundary have a Divine Throne?"

I asked. I was really curious if the Astral Boundary has one.

"Nope, but the energy level is close to the threshold already."

Now I was certain that the Astral Boundary, while it wasn't some super strong place, it wasn't exactly weak either. It was good, though I wonder how exactly strong the Astral Boundary was. Truth be told, for me, it would be better if it was a bit weaker, as it would be easier to grow there.

"So we can await war here..."

I muttered.

"Yes, but the Astral Boundary is a new universe... many factions and powerhouses are very aggressive for expansion and advancement. Something was rarely seen in the in older Universes, as most factions, there are satisfied with status quo."

That was understandable. I wasn't that surprised that in old Universes, people there were content with the status quo and didn't want to change it; for them, it was too troublesome. For them creating and advancing more would mean breaking the status quo, thus breaking the comfortable life.

Such peace will eventually bring a deterioration of strength and fall of the faction in the end.

"Also, I wanted to ask, what were you doing by inserting your energy into my body, and when the Arcana Card shined, I felt how to say... comfortably weird?"

"Just a bit of help. What I did was activate something. When the card shined, it just verified if you were worthy of joining our little merry band. You know, sometimes people, gods, and other species are born with special constitutions. You were reborn, or rather during the rebirth, you have obtained Constitution of Fateless One."

He said as he looked at me.

"Seeing your confused expression allows me to educate you. Astral Boundary is not the so-called Cultivation Universe, so many of the concepts that are common knowledge in many advanced Cultivation Universes are rather rare here. One of these classifications is Constitution. It is a rather abstract term describing unique aspects of the Body and Soul. You can compare it to DNA. Every person has a constitution, but among 99,99999...% of species, their Constitution is without any abilities or advantages. Then there are exceptions, where the sequence is special, and some unique individuals are born with a special constitution. You have the Constitution of Fateless One, which is considered as one of the most precious and strongest types of Constitution."

He explained it to me, and I understood what it was. If the constitution code for all humans is, for example, "1111" it means no unique abilities to it. But if it is "1011", it means you are basically unique.

It was rather similar to the X-Gene in Marvel, though Constitution was born naturally and not from genetic engineering. You also need to activate your Constitution for it to be fully active.

"Fateless One is basically immune to the machinations of Fate; it cannot be predicted, it cannot be seen, and it cannot be influenced. No matter if some magician, prophet, seer, cultivators, or anybody tries to intervene with it, is impossible. Just because of this alone, it is enough to invite you to Longinus Dreizhen Orden as Fateless Ones are very mighty beings, and currently, there are only 3 known ones, without you included. From which 2 are old monsters that have been in secluded cultivation from immemorial times, and 3rd one is the leader of a very powerful faction in a certain universe."

Explained Okhwang.

"I think I understand a bit. How is that possible that I have never found about it?"

I asked.

"You are too weak to find out about something. And secondly, constitutions and other similar stuff are more affiliated with cultivation, and you are not a cultivator. They are easy to find with methods of cultivators but hard with methods of other power systems."

That was logical.

"Something was bugging me... if the concept of constitutions is usually related to the Cultivation Universe, then why people with special ones are born even in universes where cultivation doesn't exist?"

Suppose the concept of the Constitution was basically a cultivation concept. How was it possible that people with special constitutions appeared in the Astral Boundary, which was the magical Universe, and only Warlocks were basically bastardized, magical cultivators?

Following the logic, it should not be possible.
