Lex moved through the void of space, his eyes scanning the endless expanse of the universe ,he was searching for the ideal location to create the realms. The most obvious choice would have been near the proximity of the Cosmic Millstone, where the concentration of Origin Energy was higher . location like this would provide a nearly limitless and potent source of energy for the realms.
But Lex didn't like this idea.
The Cosmic Millstone was a vital construct, and it was too close to the Origin Ocean, a place of overwhelming Origin Energy .this energy was so potent that even the Primordials, beings created entirely from Origin Energy, wouldn't be able to endure it or even get near its proximity. Most of them would disintegrate their essence unable to withstand the immense pressure. Maybe Only rare few could adapt, evolving into something far stronger, though the process was fraught with uncertainty.
Lex found himself in a dilemma. He envisioned these realms to brimm with Origin Energy, a vital element for their purpose. But for that to happen, the realms would need to be near the Cosmic Millstone, a location too volatile and dangerous for most creatures.
He thought about the issue, his mind cycling through countless possibilities. Then, a new idea sparked,a way to achieve his vision without compromising safety. What if he created a construct to siphon Origin Energy from the ocean and channel it directly into the realms?
A Lex waved his hand, a vast network of Siphon structures resembling pipes began to materialize, stretching outward from the depths of the Origin Ocean into the void. These colossal constructs were streamlined and metallic, their surfaces shimmering faintly with the glow of embedded runes.
The pipelines moved like snakes across the empty expanse like veins of the universe, their segmented joints reinforced with intricate law etchings. These runes served a dual purpose: stabilizing the flow of Origin Energy and refining it into a state safe for use in the realms.
From their massive bases, the pipelines plunged deep into the Origin Ocean, drawing energy with precision and restraint. The unrefined energy surged through the interiorof this pipes visible as a vibrant, glowing stream through crystalline panels along the pipes' length. Each section was pulsating,a visual testament to the immense power being transported.
At key intervals, branching conduits branched out , directing the refined energy to specific locations where the realms would soon rise. The pipelines were monumental in scale, their sheer size dwarfing planets and stars alike.
Lex observed the vast pipelines weaving across the void, their translucent forms glowing faintly as they transported refined Origin Energy. While the sight of the energy flowing through them was mesmerizing, he knew their visibility posed a risk. These pipelines were connected directly to the Origin Ocean, the most volatile and dangerous source of energy in the whole universe . If anyone discovered them, it could lead to disastrous consequences.
"I cannot leave them exposed like this ," Lex said, his voice steady.
He extended his hand, his fingers tracing invisible patterns in the air. The pipelines shimmered as he began etching additional laws into their structure. Among these, the Space Law played a pivotal role. As the runes engraved themselves onto the pipelines' surfaces, their forms began to distort, folding inward as though being pulled into another dimension.
One by one, the pipelines vanished from sight, banished into one of the deepest layers of space,a hidden realm unable to be reached by most of the creatures. This deep layer of space , isolated and fortified, would shield the pipelines from prying eyes and interference.
The void around him grew still, lacking the once-visible network. Lex nodded to himself, satisfied with the outcome. The pipelines still operated seamlessly, siphoning Origin Energy from the depths of the ocean to the realms, but now they did so in absolute secrecy.
"This way, no one will find them," Lex murmured. "The power of the Origin Ocean is too great to be accessed by any one.
Now that the pipelines were hidden and secure, Lex turned his attention back to the realms. There was still much work to be done, and the next step required his full focus.
Standing in the vast void lex stretched his hand manipulating the energy around him easily,slowly a floating landmass took shape ,this continent was barren and its size was small but as he injected energy into it ,it expanded rapidly,it was expanding one light years,two light years its size grew exponentially. Every minute its horizon stretched further consuming the surrounding void . Lex stopped what he was doing after the continent expanded upto two hundred light years and this was just the smallest continent for lex ,this continent was not that immense but for mortals was.
Next Lex envisioned the second continent. he envisioned a continent made of floating islands that were interconnected to each other,with wave of his hand islands began to form each island was unique to its design.
some of this islands were immense spanning ten light years vast enough to hold civilization on their own ,and others were smaller around one light years but even one light years was monumental compared to his previous life rocky planet he was living on.as the islands multipled their collective expanse grew until they covered a staggering ten thousand light years in total area. The islands floated in harmony connected by a gravitational force.
Lex observed the two landmasses the first continent vast and grounded and the second a network of floating islands,they were only part of the creation of realms as more was about to come.
He waved his hands and in the endless void two more continents began to form .their size rivaled each other but they were slightly smaller than the sprawling island continent he created.this continents took shape effortlessly as they floated calmly.
With a subtle motion he moved this continent slowly into a circular formation. They glided gracefully, their immense forms aligning with perfect symmetry. At the center of this formation, however, lay an empty void,a blank space waiting to be filled. He stretched out his hand, and a landmass began to form, expanding at an alarming rate,far faster than the others had. Its size was staggering, so immense that the previous continents seemed like mere islands in comparison. The reason he crafted this continent to be so vast was clear: he intended to connect one of the origin pipelines to it, ensuring it would serve as a central hub of power and influence. The land grew and grew, its edges stretching endlessly, until it dominated the void around it,
After crafting the continents, Lex decided it was time to instill laws into them. After all, a proper realm needed its own rules to function. He waved his hand and the barren land transformed instantly. Plants sprouted from the ground and grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, their roots dug deeper into the ground and their leaves unfurling in a vibrant burst of life. Mountains erupted from the ground, their peaks rising in jagged, zigzag patterns. Some of these mountains were so colossal that they dwarfed any others, their summits piercing the heavens.
Next, Lex introduced the law of water. Rivers sprang to life, carving their paths across the land, twisting and turning like serpents. Some areas of the continent were completely swallowed by water, forming vast seas. The world was taking shape, its features diverse and breathtaking.
But now Lex faced a new dilemma. Should he let life evolve on its own, allowing nature to take its course over eons? Or should he create life himself, shaping it according to his vision while remaining behind the scenes?
He stood there, contemplating the choice. If he let life evolve naturally, it would be unpredictable, unique, and truly independent. But it would also take an unimaginable amount of time. On the other hand, if he created life himself, he could ensure it thrived and adapted to the world he had built. Yet, that would mean his influence would always be a part of it, whether directly or indirectly.
Lex weighed the options carefully. He could feel the weight of responsibility pressing on him. This wasn't just about creating a world; it was about shaping its destiny. After a long moment of thought, he decided on a middle path. He would create the first forms of life, setting the foundation, but then step back and let nature take its course. This way, the world would have a starting point, but its future would be its own.
