Chronicles Of The Shura Clan 148 Light And Darkness.

At this time, almost all the villagers were already deep in sleep. However, Ling Chen's eyes were still wide open, unable to fall asleep.

"Well! now that I can't fall asleep, I might as well check out the growth of the seven d.a.m.n fruits."

Though Ling Chen looked irritated and annoyed by the amount of hard work and the hateful things he has to do just to ripen the seven new Fruits Of Creation, deep down he was very happy.

Not because he was helping people left and right like an Angel or a Saint, but because he couldn't wait to see the seven of them.

He felt antic.i.p.ation, desire, and hope all swell up inside of him. Moreover, there was a kind of curiosity...Curiosity about what they'll look like and their future relations.h.i.+p with their other brothers etc...

After sitting on the bed in a lotus pose, Ling Chen took a deep breath before he sank within his sea of consciousness.

The moment entered his sea of consciousness, he was greeted by a giant G.o.dly dark tree that blotted out within his never-ending white s.p.a.ce filled with light energy like an umbrella.

"What a sight to behold." Standing in front of the G.o.dly dark tree, Ling Chen couldn't help but become a little emotional. No matter how many times he saw the giant dark tree, he was still awe by its grandeur.

Over the past four years, the giant dark tree had double in both height and width. It was now over 170 feet tall and had a circ.u.mference of 50 feet.

Its height was truly outrageous with extremely thick branches. They looked like mountain ranges shooting out of a larger, vertical one.

The giant tree was like a giant umbrella that encompa.s.sed his sea of consciousness or upper-dantian.

If it was in the outside world, It would've looked like a peak piercing through the clouds into the deepest crevice of the sky.

Putting aside the growth of the giant dark tree, the light power within his upper-dantian has multiplied as well. It had become so thick and concentrated that one could even touch it. It was like a thick and condensed golden mist.

His upper-dantian was like a paradise with holy power oozing out everywhere. Bathing in this light could even wash away one sin and purify the soul.

After looking at the giant dark G.o.dly tree for a second or two, Ling Chen turned his focus into the seven fruits hanging on the thickest and biggest branch of the dark tree.

Each one of these fruits was the size of a watermelon. Unlike the previous fruits of creation that looked like seven giant b.a.l.l.s of darkness, these ones seemed to be cast from pure gold of the highest grade with golden strings of light oozing out of them.

"Badump, badump, badump…" As Ling Chen got closer, he heard a faint noise similar to a weak heartbeat which surprised him.

Furthermore, with every heartbeat or vibration, they absorbed a small amount of light energy in the surroundings and then released it back.

However compared to the light energy absorbed, the light energy released was purer. It was a kind of sacred white light that did not have any kind of impurities. The light energy released was like a purer version of the light energy absorbed.

It was as if the Seven Golden Fruits of Creation were constantly refining the light energy within his sea of consciousness into purer light energy.

After checking out the growth of the seven Golden Fruits Of Creation within his upper-dantian, Ling Chen slowly opened his eyes.

"It seems like all my hard works are starting to pay off. They didn't have a heartbeat a week ago." Ling Chen said with a slight happy smile on his face.

Now, he was pretty sure that It won't be long before they seven of them ripen.

"They said good things always come in pairs, let me test that theory."

Having said that, Ling Chen suddenly raised his right hand and a white holy light appeared on his palm, illuminating the whole room.

Swoos.h.!.+

The white light in his right palm began to spread through his hand and covered his entire body. His body was completely enveloped in s.h.i.+ning white light, making him look like a celestial being.

Next, he raised his left hand and a dark glow. appeared in left his palm.

"Now, let's see if they'll finally merge together." He added while looking at the dark glow in his palm with an antic.i.p.ation look on his face.

He has been trying to merge these two energies for the past three years. However, he never succeeded, not even once.

According to logic, Ling Chen knew that light and darkness were attributes that could not coexist and would repel one another, it was also impossible for them to appear on a single lifeform.

They had a very strong repulsion for one another, it was even stronger than fire and water. It was two elements the could not coexist. In the darkness, there was no light, and in light, there could exist no darkness.

They two of them were eternal enemies. Yet, he controlled both. These two different dispositions, these two different paths, that could not appear on the same person at the same time had appeared on him.

As such, he thought that If he possessed two powers that weren't supposed to appear on the same person at the same time, who said that he couldn't merge them together even though logic said that they could not coexist?

Furthermore, he was also curious about what would happen if these two opposites' powers were to merge together.

Swoos.h.!.+

Just like the light energy, the dark energy began to spread through his hand and trying to merge with the light energy that covered his body.

However, the moment they made contact, the light energy receded like a tidal wave within his body without his permission.

Then, Ling Chen increased the output of light energy and tried to merge it with the dark energy that covered his body. However, just like the light energy, the dark energy receded back to his body like a mouse that has seen a cat.

For about two minutes, Ling Chen's body continued to change between light and darkness.

When the light energy appeared, the darkness would immediately swallow it or it would recede back within his body.

When the darkness lingered, the light would appear and chase it away. The two elements continued to clash. These two elements that could not coexist continued fighting for the right to exist. Both elements continued to fight for its existence and to chase away the opposing side.

However, after ten minutes of battling with each other, and they finally came to a deadlock.

On the left side of Ling Chen's body, there was a holy s.h.i.+ning white light that was hard to look at. And on his right side, there was a deep profound dark glow. His entire body was covered half in white light and half in a dark glowing light.

"It seems like with my present strength, it's still impossible to merge the two energy. I guess I'm gonna have to wait until these seven little devils are born to try again." Murmured Ling Chen with a tiring look ok his face before he lied down on the bed.

After trying to merge the two opposite energies together, he was mentally exhausted. As he such, he quickly fell asleep the moment he lied on the bed.
