“CAUTION!” The word was emphasized and a warning followed, explaining that if one avoids meditating early after the Earth’s Core enters the body and instead, at some point in time, the dantian will suffer shocks the shell will break on its own and the first cycle of mist leaving and entering the body will start, accompanied by unimaginable pain to every part of the body and a great loss of blood.
The one before last part of the Earth’s Core’s report was the most astonishing. When the number of cracks on the shell will reach a certain amount, the shell would then crumble and will merge with the mist, increasing its volume and purity two folds, also changing its color from the previews dark brown to bright white. After This breakthrough, the holder of the now complete energy form of the Earth’s Core, which now shall receive the title “Core Breaker”, for further advancement, will have to continue practicing by cultivating the mist energy through meditation.
War broke in the underground word, New Earth. As humanity led with greater numbers, the beasts led with superior bodies and much more years of experience utilizing the Earth’s Core’s power. Not to mention that any of the Core Breaker level beasts demonstrated intelligence equal to that of humans.
The war went on for centuries. Sometimes humanity pushed back, sometimes the beasts, but the battle ground never left the first two-thirds of the beasts’ outer territory, the humans could not advance any further and the beasts never tried to cross the border of two species.
800 years of war. The UGNE had to, for the first time, pull back its forces on its own and passed the beasts’ side a request for a cease fire, hoping that it will accept it. After so many years of war its forces numbered three million soldiers, twenty thousand Earth’s Core holders and three hundred Core Breakers, while the beasts remained resilient as ever. A response didn’t arrive, but the beast ceased their attacks on the human. After seven days, two figures entered the UGNE’s army camp, camp three seventy-two, and sparked a furor, mainly because one of them was fifty meters long and they both came from above without anyone noticing. The two were lizard type beasts, the bigger one looked like a green scales dragon with purple mane, two silver horns and green eyes, the other one was humanoid, around two meters tall with crimson scales covering its body and two silver horns come out from the sides of its lizard head.
The humanoid lizard jump down from the wingless back of the dragon. Without opening its mouth it passed a telepathic demand to all the presence soldiers. “Bring here your leaders”.
Feeling the two’s unfathomable auras, only one soldier, a late phase Earth’s Core holder, could keep his senses straight as the rest of the troops fell down to the ground, clenching uncontrollably in fear. Panting for breath, that middle age soldier opened his mouth. “Please wait”, he sounded like he was begging and set off running to the main camp.
Running in his top speed, it would not be an exaggeration to say that not just his life but also all of humanity’s depends on it - which was in this case probably more than just a saying. Don, the middle age soldier, reached to the main camp, camp zero zero one, which was located at the border of two species in the western caves, after twelve hours of running. Without stating the purpose of his arrival he passed the camp’s gourds, scanned the surroundings with his aura and hurried to where he felt were the gathering forces, the army’s Three Generals.
Don continued. “Since our camp’s first and second commanders were not present, I was the next highest ranked soldier. I’m ashamed to say that even I, a late phase Earth’s Core holder, could not measure the opponent’s strength and as a result lost my cool…”
“You seem to be doing pretty well in our presence”. Third General said.
“Stop teasing him”. Second General snapped. “Big brother is writing a new scroll. Let’s hurry up and listen to the boy’s story and be done with it without further interruptions to big brother”.
“Right, big sister. I should apologize to big brother later”. Third General said sincerely, yet still smiled. It was always funny to see his big sister disguises her maternal instinct towards young soldiers with excuses. He turned to Don, “So you felt the need to inform us three… How did the two beasts react?”
“I asked of them to wait. They didn’t respond but I sensed their approval. That is all”.
“Okay, there is no need for you to go back. Rest here and keep what you told us to yourself”. For the first time First General laid down his brush and joined the conversation.
“Yes, Three Generals”. Don bowed and left the tent.
