The sky became black, engulfing the suns, the birds became uneasy screeching to their throats, the fishes sensed variation, in the earth's electric field, all these happenings were triggered by a single soul on the planet. In the middle of the platform sat Aryan cross-legged, in deep meditation to divert his pain.
Blood was gushing out from the corner of his mouth and eyes, the pain of unlocking the inborn cultivation technique was too high for him, physically, but mentally he was used to such things.
Inside his mind, thousands of scriptures were reverberating, containing the truth of life, the truth of death, the cycle of rebirth, the harmony of the universe and so on, the content that was getting unlocked inside him contained two major things one was the most valuable cultivation technique, and the other was Divine Profound Knowledge of the Sage Of Harmony, something desired by many.
Only a single line of these scriptures can do wonders, for some it can increase their lifespan, for some it can increase their strength, for some it can give them enlightenment, for Aryan it was one of the many powers bestowed upon him, unknown to Aryan the wonders of these scripts, he was using his past life knowledge and experience to devour them all and gain enlightenment at once, comprehending only a single line could provide a vast amount of power.
Unknown to Aryan that his body was being overloaded by this and was being destroyed, he was trying to comprehend as many as possible.
All of a sudden the unknown sound reverberated again, "Oh the chosen one, keep your curiosity in check, I know you can comprehend them all and define their profound meaning in simpler terms, but doing that right now is not the most suitable time."
"Why not now??"
"Get out of your meditation you will understand."
"Okay, let me see"
"Ouch….ouch….ouch…...ouch…..hurts….hurts...hurts...no burns….burns….burns…."
His body covered in blood, his blood vessel ruptured, tears were flowing out of his eyes, as a natural response, seeing this scene from above, his parents were feeling uneasy, they wanted to jump in and stop the ceremony at once, but they knew the importance of this event in a child's life and refrained themselves from doing so.
Aryan understood what the unknown voice meant and decided to wait for the destined time to solve the profoundness of those scripts.
Suddenly he felt a tremor in his heart, he was getting a feeling that the unlocking process was coming to an end, and the most-awaited, his cultivation technique will be unlocked soon.
Somewhere in the outer space, a small research & expedition oriented ship was observing the planets of a certain solar system, abruptly they observed a change in the planets of that solar system, excluding the planet X27 Earth all the planets and their natural satellites have seized up their rotations and revolutions, and stood stationary at their places, forming a seven shaped constellation of eleven planets, excluding X27 Earth.
At last, the time had come for the cultivation technique to get unlocked, Aryan body felt a jolt, his consciousness got pulled into his soul sea again, the star, that was previously at the middle of his soul sea emitting dazzling radiance was now split open into two.
Aryan saw this scene and willed to move near it when he got nearer to get a closer look, he felt a resonance in his heart, he looked around to find the other source of resonance, but couldn't find anything, he closed his eyes and tried to widen his search, abruptly he opened his eyes and smirked, "So there you are, my key."
Aryan willed again and transferred a book from the corner of his soul sea to his hands, it was the book hidden inside the radiating star, the final key to his locked cultivation technique, a palm-sized book half golden and half white on the front, representing the yin yang cycle, but golden instead of black.
His heart was beating fast, his excitement over the clouds, after being pulled and pushed more than thrice inside and outside of his soul sea, it was finally time to end the unlock process completely, he willed again, the book from his hand floated in the air and kept on turning pages till it reached the middle page, only a single sentence was written there "Oh, the chosen one, from now on my power of Harmony belongs to you, use it wisely."
Aryan understood the message of the sage and closed the book, when he opened his eyes he was already floating in the sky eight thousand meters above the platform, his parents were gasping in shock, watching this view from below, they were holding each other hand and yelling and crying in joy, Aryan was surprised by their reactions and took a look at his body.
No scar, no blood, no wound, every damage he had suffered previously were completely recovered now, the blood-soaked clothes, that were on him previously were not there anymore, instead he was wearing a grey colored vest coat, on top of a white shirt, along with a black skinny tie, and black colored pants.
The unknown voice that was inside Aryan soul sea, was outside now, it reverberated near the platform, "Oh the chosen one embrace your new power, the time has come, for the king to get his crown." Anisa, Grand Elder, and the others became alert, except Aditya who had met and talked with that sound once, he sent a telepathy message to others, about his meeting with the sound and asked others not to take any action. Aryan heard the voice and began to chant the sutras of his cultivation technique.
