Weapon seller in the world of magic

Before the creation, there was nothing but a formless and undifferentiated void that existed. No gods, no worlds, no time, it’s literally nothing. Then, a cosmic egg appeared out of nowhere. When the egg hatched, Pangu and the Primal were born as twins.

Pangu and Primal worked together to then create the undivided universe of reality.

In the process, both of them perished together, and from Pangue, the material universe and countless souls were created.

And through Primal, two cosmic eggs, and the cosmic orb is generated.

The cosmic orb was later separated into the Orb of Chaos, the Orb of Creation, the Orb of Elementals, the Orb of Time, the Orb of Malevolence, the Orb of Cosmos, and the Orb of Divinity, scattered across the virgin universe.

And the two cosmic eggs gave birth to the Primordial Divine Beast and Primordial Demonic Beast, which only existed for a moment before the primordial divine beast separated itself into the divine mass of energies, which later transformed into various divine beasts such as the Celestial Dragon Yuanlong, Immortal Fire Phoenix, Blizzard Pegasus, Ouroborus, and many more over time.

On the other hand, the demonic mass of energies transformed into Leviathan, Behemoth, Tiamat, The Abyssal Krakken, Hellhound, etc.…

For your problem, Leviathan and Behemoth were often considered twins because they were originally the same demonic mass of energy, but for some reason, instead of one like others, they were born as two. And both of them weren’t born with equal strength either.

While Leviathan was born with true god realm strength, Behemoth was born with Elder God strength. It wasn’t just that. Behemoth was so big that no world could accommodate it.

For endless of time, Behemoth travels all over the universe, swallowing worlds and suns to feed its hunger, without any match to challenge its strength.

Because of the threat it possessed, the gods had to separate their celestial realm, stacking it upon the other one where Behemoth would roam. Eventually, as situations arrived, other planes of existence were also built up one after another.

The mortal plane of existence is the largest plane of the universe, and it was so vast that not even Behemoth could consume a fraction of it even after all this time.

As it can cross through planes of existence too, it became the job of every guardian of their plane to intercept its path and send it back to the mortal plane in case of a cross over and Lord Yujiang would escort it to the worlds without any lives to fill its hunger.

As long as it is filled, it is happy. However, according to our lord, Behemot changed its direction a while ago and is currently coming straight to this place.

I heard that you slew Leviathan, although I still don’t dare to believe that you played a major role. either way, it is likely that it is coming for you. You have roughly 10 years to protect your world. You might have defeated Leviathan with some help but not even deities dare to offend Behemoth.

Usually, it doesn’t care because you know those beasts don’t have any true death and would only go into hibernation to recover strength over time, but this time, it appeared to be different. Unless you reach the god realm during this time, which obviously is impossible, you and your world will be destroyed. The easiest way out of this trouble is to come with me to meet our Diety. Lord Ouroborus is really interested in you. If you become his apostle, your safety will be guaranteed.

"Hmm… I see why you think this is an urgent matter." Mark turned serious.

He was fully aware of his capabilities. The moment he heard that Behemoth could eat stars and was in the elder god realm, the very deities these major churches were all built for, Mark knew this was serious trouble. Now that he had a family and even two children to protect, Mark wouldn’t overestimate himself either.

He thought it through, and then, suddenly, something clicked in his head, "You said cosmic orbs, and these beasts had the same origin. Do you think they could work against Behemoth?"

"Absolutely," Xin Rui firmly nodded in confidence. She explained, "As far as we know, you have Orb of Time in your hands. But, it won’t be helpful in dealing with an existence like Behemoth. You need to have atleast two of them and atleast be in the Saint realm so that you won’t die of life force depletion.

The best bet is The Orb of Elementals, which has been fused with the founder of the Tang Dynasty’s body. If you kill him and take it for yourself, you could have a possibility, but it is next to impossible to kill him. Defeating him is another thing, but killing him… even Lord Yujiang couldn’t do it back then.

The Orb of Chaos should have been here, but it disappeared. However, we sensed Chaos energy in your son and traces of it in your wife. I guess Lady Song would have been the previous host. Surprisingly, she was still alive even after extraction.

Anyway, the Orb of divinity is in the hands of the Jade Emperor. The Orb of Creation has been missing for eons. The Orb of Malevolence was sealed in the netherworld. As for the Orb of Cosmos, it has been in the hands of the Ancient Xie Clan for thousands of years and they won’t lend it to you either.

Now, this is where my personal favor comes in. You need the Orb of Elementals to deal with Behemoth, and I need to enact my vengeance upon the Tang Clan. You know, as the new Priestess of Void Temple appointed to attend the affairs of the Tang Clan’s court, I can help you from the inside."

"Hmm… that’s an interesting proposition," Mark replied. He leaned to the front and then said, "However, you underestimate my abilities, lady. I was aware of the existence of the Orb of Elementals and I could also defeat him and take it if I want but do you know why I didn’t do it yet?"

"Let me guess, you need competition or a rival or something?" Xin Rui raised her eyebrow. She couldn’t help but feel that Mark was going to reject her proposal.

And then, Mark explained, increasing her worry even more, "It is because I don’t have any enmity with him. And whatever issue he caused me in the past, I forgave him. I forgave the Dragon Empire for trying to abduct my wife to extract the Orb of Chaos because she wanted it that way. Now, if I kill him for the sake of obtaining the cosmic Orb, that would not make me greedy, but it would also give me all the reason for just committing atrocities against anyone I wish without needing any justification. I don’t need to prove to the world but I need to justify my actions to my own heart."

Xin Rui got up right away in disappointment. She didn’t get what she wanted by coming here, making a visit, and revealing to him the secret that her diety told her.

But then again, if Mark was too overconfident about his abilities, she couldn’t do anything. After swallowing the advanced stat pill he gave it to her a long time ago, her realm was also pushed to the advanced stage of the 9-circle realm. If anything, he only helped her.

"In that case, I’ll be leaving."

Xin Rui was prepared to leave, but Mark stopped her, "Wait. I’m not finished yet." "Hmm?" As she turned around, Mark raised his head to look at her and said, "Putting that all aside, a while ago, I gave a warning to Dragon Empire’s envoy not to be involved in Leon Empire’s business or else they would pay for the consequences."

Xin Rui sat once again, suddenly getting the feeling of hope from his words, "But I heard Emperor Tang paid you compensation." She doesn’t want to disappoint herself with a clear rejection in the end. Hence, she brought up the topic.

Mark shrugged his shoulders, "that was for releasing the prisoners. It had nothing to do with my warning. If I didn’t do anything, some other emperor would intentionally offend me due to his overconfidence and upon realizing his mistake, he would offer me money to cool me down. Now, we can’t have that, do we?"

Both of them smiled, understanding his meaning. She got up and gave a ninety-degree bow, "In that case, I thank you for the help."

Soon, Mark returned to the banquet while Xin Rui covered her head with a hood and went on her way.

Three days later, at the Dragon Palace;

Amidst the greetings of the officials of the court, Xin Rui, wearing elegantly-looking robes with the crest of what seemed like a serpent coiled itself and eating its own tail, engraved with threads of Mythril that made them glow, walked into the assembly and greeted the young Emperor with a bow, letting out an enchanted smile that made him fall into a daze for a moment.

"Xin Rui of Void Temple greets Your Majesty."

"Welcome," smiled Emperor Tang.
