The massive island hung suspended in the vast emptiness.Its sheer size dominated the emptiness around it.
All of a sudden two pair of Sharp eyes materialized on the floating island. It gazed at the well familiar blue phoenix with anoyance.
She clearly told her cute disciple to breakthrough now. And now here she is. Came to her disturbing her experiments.
" Brat!, why are you here again. Its only been ten thousand years!.Go atlest for a Era cycle atlest. Before disturbing me!"
Luna closed her eyes. And returned to her human form. Her beautiful long blue hair danced at the empty void as bule aura surrounded her body.
Taking a deep breath.
"Master, urgency calls," Luna replied, the hint of a smirk playing on her lips. "Gaia is stirring, and the fifth catalyst looms. Your experiments might need to wait a bit longer."
Hearing this she widen her eyes. And in blink of an eye a figure with huge fluffy fox ears appeared in front of her. Grabbing her shoulder and started shaking them crazily.
"how did you.. How do you know.." .
Luna didn't spoke seeing her master like this. She become happy. Untill now she was the one helping her. And now she can finally make her master happy a bit.
" Master, soul celestials started appearing along with increasing of Aether energy" She spoke up and looked at her face.
Her master stood there silently and tears started falling from her eyes.
" I can finally see him again " She spoke up with rigid breathing.
" Yes master you can finally see him again.Sir Ayjak Carlos. The fourty Seventh Demon lord"

Meanwhile,
At distance starfeild, inside an underground chamber right beside the core of the planet.
Multiple figures can be seen covered in darkness head to toe. Standing Infront of a huge red alert. Soaked in blood of the strongest species in the whole cosmos.
Suddenly the alter started moving, and two huge red crystal appeared. Hovering right above the alter. Draining blood at outstanding rate.
In blink of an eye, the crystals absorbed every last bit of the red blood, infused with strong Aether energy.
The alter lost it's color and broke apart leaving the two crystal hovering gracefully. One shined with bright white light, As for the other one it didn't shine. It started spreading thick black smoke to the surroundings.
All of a sudden ancient latter's started appearing on the crystal.
" Equality has been reached, World shall reset and Marge.Time thirty five mortal days"
Then the black crystal also started vibrating and ancient words started appearing on the crystal.
" Aether energy will be expanded to one thousand times. Worlds shall expand by ten thousand times"
The words stayed at the crystal for couple of minutes before disappearing. The black and light crystal slowly started shattering themself before disappearing and appearing in the vast realm one after another. Shining for a split second above the ones who are worthy.

As the mist cleared, Tanvir found himself alone In front of a huge mirror. Tanvir gazed at his surroundings cautiously. Grabbing the one.
Then all of a sudden the mirror started shaking and small runes started appearing on the border of the mirror.
His reflection disappeared, and the mirror turned completely black. Slowly a magical circle started reappearing on the mirror. Tanvir,watched as the magical circle expanded.
Tanvir didn't dare let his guard down and watched the mirror transform slowly.
Then all of a sudden a voice echoed throughout the room.
"This ends now"
Tanvir right away unseathed his katana and slashed behind him.
-Wosh!
But he slashed nothing. He quickly turn around and slashed towards the mirror not an inch from it. The sound of wind started blowing.
He gazed and realized the black screen of the mirror started shattering and slowly revealing the scenary behind.
As he focused more, he realized the sound was coming from the mirror. Still it didn't made his guard down. Slowly the black pieces started falling down slowly revealing the back of an old man wearing red clothes full of injuries. Cold wind chilling wind started coming towards him from the mirror. His heart started beating faster. His mind was telling him something about to happen.
Pieces started falling down more and more.
" Who is he?"
He started feeling odd. More pieces started crumbling and gradually revealed the whole view.
Desolate battlefield.
Tanvir was taken aback when he saw the old man
Standing in the midst of a chaotic battlefield. Gigantic trees towered above him, and creatures he had never seen before were scattered across the field. The scenery changed before his eyes.
The moment the angle changed. Chill ran through his spines.
" Mare coincidence?, ofcourse not"
The old man's face was covered with a plain mask with visible crack's one the mask. He know very well which that mask belongs to. It was his!.
The same mask which appears after he uses battle mode. And also the actual body of the soul celestial.
His face zoom out, and his whole body appeared from the side. The old man was holding a black katana with visible crack's on the actual body.
Looking at the same familiar katana. He's all doubts vanished.
" That's me"
Tanvir stood there in shock, his mind racing as he gazed at the figure and the surroundings. Then all of a sudden the voice he heard earlier on echoed in the room.
But he now knew that voice wasn't from something unknown it belongs to him or to be precise his future self from the mirror.
" My old self, Listen carefully"
Tanvir strengthen his senses and came closer to the mirror.
" I don't have much time left"
As he spoke he looked at his hands. Which was turning into stones slowly.
" After going out, head to the ice statue of the Kymair forest in the dumoir kingdom "
The speed increases. The stoned hand started crumbling slowly.
" Find the inje village, create a base there"
" Save Sir Ayjak and lastly live your life"
He muttered and closed his eyes. All of a sudden the speed stonefication increased. And in blink of eye the old living thing become a statue.
At the same time, the battle intensified. The sky cracked open revealing two huge pair of hands. Reaching towards him.
But before it could reach. The Statue crumbled revealing a small sparking light. Time stopped. The light expanded covering everything. Everything become silent. Tanvir didn't dare to blink and waited for something to happen.
Soon slowly the white light disappeared. Revealing the same sparkling light in the mirror. Then something happen almost making his heart kept out in fright.
The sparkling light slowly came out of the mirror and hovered in front of him.
He retreated back.To keep some safe distance. But it started moving too and maintained a small distance from him.
