Chapter 5 - Silver Forest’s Prologue (Part 2)

"His soul is ready for ascension. It's best to give him a place with plenty of spirit water for his cultivation so he can gain a human form. Once he reaches the stage of metamorphosis, you can ask Fate Weaver to give him his mortal trials that can help him successfully change from a carp to a dragon."

The Spirit Guardian brings over a ghostly soul of a carp to the elder female wind immortal.

"Thank you very much, Silver Forest. It was hard to watch him breathe his last breath on the lonely, rocky shores after being heavily injured by Bear Fist of the Divine Jade Realm. If I had seen him sooner, he would not have died."

"I believe he'll appreciate your effort to save him even if it was late. Since you brought him to me, he can live once again in the world of immortals by the name of King Carp."

"King Carp. . .that's quite regal. . ."

"If he can successfully become a dragon, King Dragon will be his future name."

The elderly female immortal nods her head in agreement and joy. She bids a good day to Silver Forest as she carries the soul of King Carp to help him nourish his cultivation.

"King Carp? That's the best that you could name a future king of the dragons?"

Phoenix God appears behind Silver Forest, peeking out from his shoulder.

"It's a fine name until he becomes a dragon after all. Also get your drunk breath out of my face."

"Aww, no need to be like that Silver Bro~"

Phoenix God always enjoyed annoying the platinum-haired immortal at every occasion or time, yet the forest immortal couldn't help but let the fire God's flamboyant behaviors run wild.

"Phoenix Bro, if you have nothing else to do then go wash your mouth. I have matters to attend in the Divine Jade Realm."

"That's funny, I was going to ask if you know what day it is?"

Silver Forest looked towards the heavenly scenery of the immortals enjoying their day at the park in silence, just for a momentary glimpse until turning his sight towards the pink-haired male god.

"Of course I know what day it is. It's the anniversary of mine and Cosmic Mirror's death."

Silver Forest was none other than the same kind god whose soul was separated by his close ones and whose original body was used for divine refinement.

He was given a new identity and body to work with, starting a fresh, new life in the Divine Magic Realm. He also offered to become the Spirit Guardian to the Spirit Realm, fixing the place alongside Phoenix God, Death God, Pearl Goddess and many other gods and immortals.

The Spirit Realm was no longer a barren wasteland but a paradise fit for the deceased spirits and souls. Floral gardens and lush greenery plus spiritual vein resting spots for spiritual rejuvenation were made for their stay before their decision to move on to the next life.

Within the forest immortal's abode lies a silver pavilion on the top of an illuminated snow tree, with leaves of deep ocean blue descending and dissolving into the pure glittering river that flowed to the waterfall's natural spring.

To the left of the pavilion connects an illuminating swirl bridge to a dark green pagoda, with a physical bridge towards a second pagoda of the same layout. In the right of the pavilion also connects an illuminated bridge, but to a wide mountain peak with a large moon-colored tree with pink leaves.

The peak led stone steps going down to a small village in the tree trunks, home to the well-known and experienced spirits who have decided to stay and help Silver Forest with maintaining the Spirit Realm.

It was a fascinating home for the Spirit Guardian and his secretaries.

And speaking of said guardian, he and Phoenix God went to the first pagoda where extensive knowledge was shelved at. Yet beneath the surface of wisdom hid the spatial realm that inhabits the souls of the broken being fixed slowly.

"Oh? This fire immortal's soul is almost fixed. When will he be reborn again I wonder?"

Phoenix God laid his red garnet eyes to a flaming orb in curiosity, the soul reflecting in eyes as it gave off a roaring glow for a split moment for him to bare witness of.

"He needs a transcendence awakening before he can be reborn, and for when that happens? I don't even know."

Silver Forest answers Phoenix God as he inlays a crystallized, spiritual dewdrop to a mirror-like soul with clusters of stars around it. The soul absorbs the dewdrop, repairing the final small chunks missing from the bottom.

"But Cosmic Mirror is ready. On the day of his death will become the day of his rebirth. . ."

A rebirth in the mortal realm awaited the now-fixed immortal soul of Cosmic Mirror, who Silver Forest had owed his life to by repairing his soul.

The god of fire accompanied the forest immortal to the gate of the Mortal Realm, watching the platinum silver-haired male immortal set Cosmic Mirror's soul like a lantern going into motion.

The soul turns into a shooting star upon passing the gate, descending down into the mortal realm for its trials.

"I wish you well, Cosmic Mirror. . ."

He and Silver Forest were now reborn on the day of their deaths. . .and the Spirit Guardian was ready to start the game of revenge on the ones he formerly cherished.

"Phoenix Bro."

"Yes, Silver Bro?"

"It's time we set sail."
