Chapter 1446

War of the Gods and Demons: Chapter 46

…

Iris White was once a daughter of a noble family in the capital of the former country. When the 1st war erupted 300 years ago, she and her family escaped by sea and ended up on the current continent.

As their family began their lives in the new land, she suffered along with her family but then they were finally able to rise up due to the talent of his father which helped the family become rich.

A few years later, she encountered a young man who has taking a liking to her. However, she did not like the young guy because of his frivolous way of living.

But who would have known that because of that, her father would actually die and her siblings caught in captivity along with her mother?

Their family has suffered once again and has fallen really deep as they were oppressed by that young guy and the family behind him.

She and her little brother escaped that tragedy and vowed to avenge their family.

In their quest for vengeance, they discovered a cave and learned about the Shens and the true story of this world.

2 years later, she and her brother arose from that cave filled with power.

They were the first ever awakened beings in this world where all the rest are living normal lives.

They've got their vengeance, but it was already too late. Her sisters were all turned into slaves and only two of them were found. Her mother who was turned into a prostitute lost her mind and killed herself.

The tragic circumstance of their family turned the brother and sister pair into madmen and began slaughtering the clan who is responsible for what happened to them.

In a brutal display of killing, the whole town where that clan belongs witnessed what the two siblings can do.

They began to reign in that town with an iron grip as they lived their days growing their power little by little.

With their growth also comes to the length of their lifespan. The siblings founded the White Sect and they began to operate within the darkness trying to discover this world.

And then by coincidence, Iris White comes in contact with a Shadow Being.

She then began to learn of their plan which sparked an idea in her mind.

They all wanted to attain something, but then in this world, their progression is hampered. She has already known that this place is a prison from what they discovered in that cave. How to escape…? She did not know.

This world is a prison and the only way for her to leave this planet is to destroy it.

With that plan in mind, she cooperated with the Shadow Beings whose sole purpose is to destroy this place once and for all.

The plan was set, as they need began to search for ways how to disturb this place. But no matter how hard they tried, everything failed.

But then, she discovered the creation of the portals.

And the year that the demons began attacking was the first successful portal creation which opened this world to the other world and disturbed the balance of the chaotic Ki on this planet.

As more Ki seeps into the world of Shens, normal people began to awaken their Shen power.

And so, the war between the demons and the humans began.

For 3 years, the conflict intensified destroying this part of the world as demons caused chaos all over the place.

But still, such destruction is not enough.

That was until… they discovered another cave and captured a Shen from the other side.

Though that guy was able to escape for some reason, they still found many things in his abode that cleanly showed them the path on how to finally destroy this world so that they can finally escape this forsaken place.

With the discovery of the portal, it took them some years before they were finally able to open a portal to the other side which ended up in a failure according to the report.

And now everything is ready, they have finally created a stable portal big enough to open a gate to the other side of the planet.

Many thought that Iris White is working for the guardian of this planet. Well, she has been impersonating such a claim for a while now. And yet the so-called guardian has not reacted. Hence, she has been enjoying this privilege for many years now.

Behind her, his brother who has grown really strong sits on the throne of the White Sect which now controls the underground world.

As the days goes by she felt excited. She knew that she would finally be able to free herself from this prison.

But then, she discovered that a weird fellow began to appear in this place.

There was a fellow who suddenly threw a large wrench in their plans and caused more failures in their plans.

She even suspected that he is the cause for the intelligent demons to side with the humans.

She has been hunting that guy ever since the creation of the Goliath Suit which made her really mad.

And so she began working with Yol-gar in haste so that she can push the plan ahead of time. And that is the reason why she is here in this place.

…

Looking at the people in front of her, she handed them a few folders before standing up.

"There is a huge change in our plan… I will not say anything anymore and you guys should just read it on your own… If you are in on this action, then you are welcome… if not, then…" she did not end her words and just stood up and left the room.

"My lord… the arrogance of that human…" Eva suddenly said after Iris White walked out of the door.

But before she could finish her words, Yol-gar lifted his hand to stop her.

"We will follow her plan… I think that woman is more determined to destroy this planet than us…" Yol-gar said with a sinister smile appearing on his face.

His eyes then landed on the folder and a vicious glint appears as his eyes landed on the picture of Xin Ja.

"My lord… if we follow her plan, then most of our generals and our army would be destroyed…" Arnas said with a frown.

"Who cares! As long as we achieved ascension, then we can sacrifice those weaklings… Only we and the strong have the right to ascend… Hahaha…" the short guy named Maridon chuckled.

The rest just shakes their heads but they knew that what the leader and that small guy said is the truth. They are all Shadow Beings, born from the shadows energy of the cosmos, and have plagued the universe in their desire for control and power.

But the deities have hampered their progression and this universe has only belonged to those who sided with the light.

First, it was the beast kin, who surrendered, and then the dragons, and then the elves… now even the demons seem to have sided with the light. How could they, the Shadow Beings, who were born in the chaos, still fight against them?

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

With that in mind, the group began to convey a meeting to follow the plan of that human who has sided with them. They knew that they must find a way for this to succeed, if not, then their entire race would soon be wiped out.

…

Meanwhile, Xin Ja on the other hand has been busy looking for ways how he could receive enlightenment.

And so he began to busy himself with each of his skill sets.

First, it was his fighting skill. He is not the most skilled person in fighting, but he has won each fight he has encountered and has escaped each danger to his life.

So in battles, he is fairly well-balanced and confident in himself.

As he began to practice each of his skills, he soon could feel that his condition is already top-notch.

He shakes his head as if he did not receive any enlightenment after hours and hours of practice.

After resting for a while, he decided to begin concocting pills and potions.

2 days later…

Xin Ja looks at the dregs he has created as he was too engrossed in his concoction. The large pile only shows that he has expended almost all of the herbs he has collected in his ring and even at the black orb.

This made those two who are living inside it frown as they have been taking care of some of those herbs inside the black orb.

"I guess, fighting and concocting pills is not where I can get enlightenment…" he muttered.

In fact, Xin Ja already knew how he could get enlightenment, but he is just afraid to try it out for fear that he would actually fail.

He sat on the crafting table for a while and then his hand subconsciously grabs a pen and then began drawing something on the sheet of paper.

As he did so subconsciously, his mind began to be engrossed in the process that he did not even notice the tip of the pen is already glowing.

Soon, a vague design of an artifact slowly appeared on the paper and the chaotic Ki in the air began to vibrate.
