The Ultimate Universe Creation-Chapter 1: Soul Reborn/The Hidden Continent
Chapter 1: Soul Reborn/The Hidden Continent
Huff, huff, huff... Where am I? What happened to me? I looked around, but all I could see was darkness—endless darkness. Then I glanced at my body and was shocked. My body was gone. In its place, there was only a white line. I tried to move, but it felt like I was floating in one direction. I didn't know where I was going. Sometimes, my line-like body would flicker and take the form of an empty void.
I kept moving without any sense of time, slowly forgetting everything about myself. As I drifted on, there was only one thing I could remember about myself: no matter what, I didn't want to forget my name. My name is Adarsh.
Bzzz...
Suddenly, Adarsh saw lights of various colors all around him. The colors kept shifting rapidly. His line-like body started merging with the surroundings.
[Ding!]
[System has received pure energy.]

[System activating: 1%...10%...30%...77%...95%...100%.]
[Power system activated!]
Adarsh slowly regained his senses. He looked around, trying to figure out where he was. Then he glanced at himself—and what he saw filled him with rage. He had turned into a flower!
"What is happening to me?" Adarsh yelled in frustration.
[Ding, ding, ding!]
Adarsh heard some words echoing from deep within his soul. Curious, he focused and saw a series of details about himself:
[Host: Adarsh
Species: Divine Blood Lotus (Divine)
Tier: Final
Ability: Can host a virgin girl and be reborn as a child.
Status: Critical
Lifespan: 1 month remaining]
[Remaining Divine Power: 12%]
[Mission: Use Divine Power to be reborn as a human.
Reward: Control over your power.
Time limit: 1 month.]
Seeing this, Adarsh took a deep breath. His existence as the Divine Blood Lotus had no means of moving from that place. Completing the mission seemed like the only way forward, and quickly at that.
Adarsh started using his remaining Divine Power to scan the surroundings for a virgin girl who could host him. However, his scan revealed that he was in the Void—a place where nothing existed except for the colorful lights emanating from him.
To expand his search, Adarsh increased the power of his Divine Scan. As the scan intensified, he detected an object: a glowing white stone moving rapidly in one direction.
Then his scan picked up a massive object emitting light—it seemed to be a neutron star about 13 to 14 miles in size. Next, he scanned a medium-sized star, around 1.6 million kilometers wide, and then a massive star, nearly 1 billion kilometers in size. His scan revealed countless stars, billions of planets, and many lifeforms, but no sign of humans.
Ten days passed during his search, using up 4% of his Divine Power. Adarsh realized that if he continued like this, his power would be depleted before he could even find humans.
Suddenly, his Divine Scan picked up a disturbance—a crack in the Void. He investigated but found nothing visible. Confused, he wondered how something could cause ripples in his scan.
Determined, Adarsh used 2% more Divine Power to stabilize his scan and take a closer look at the disturbance. He discovered a massive Void Shield covering the area. He examined the shield carefully, searching for any gaps, but found none.
Ten more days passed, and another 2% of his Divine Power was consumed. With only 10 days remaining, Adarsh felt increasingly desperate.
Crack... crack... crack...
A faint sound caught his attention as a small crack appeared in the massive shield. Wasting no time, Adarsh used more Divine Power to send his essence through the crack and into the Void Pocket beyond. While his power entered the crack, no information returned from it.
With little time and power left, Adarsh made a bold decision: he would enter the Void Pocket himself through the crack, even if it meant risking everything.
Adarsh used 2% of his Divine Power and commanded his system to teleport him into the Void Crack. As soon as the system received the command, it began releasing his power with a whoosh, whoosh sound, and Adarsh teleported into the crack.
Adarsh started sensing his surroundings. He observed that there were various kinds of trees, plants, and animals all around. Looking more closely, he noticed that the air, soil, water, and even the plants were imbued with a special type of energy.
Adarsh spread his Divine Power further to get a better view and to check if there were any traces of humans in this place. However, all he could see were trees, plants, and animals that seemed to possess extraordinary strength. Adarsh thought to himself, This must be due to the energy present in this place. I must have entered some strange continent.
He realized that finding out whether humans existed on this continent was crucial. Suddenly, Adarsh's Divine Sense detected something unusual. He noticed a massive mountain in the distance. The mountain's height was approximately 10,000 kilometers, and its circumference was five times its height. Atop the mountain, he saw a large house surrounded by white mist. The mist obscured the house, making it hard to discern. If not for his Divine Sense, Adarsh wouldn't have realized that a house was even there.
To investigate further, Adarsh used his Divine Sense to explore every part of the house. Most of the house was empty, but in the central chamber, he sensed a thin energy barrier. Using his Divine Sense, he penetrated the barrier, and what he saw left him astonished. Inside, he found a human!
Lying on a luxurious bed was a beautiful young woman who appeared to be around 25 to 30 years old. She looked as delicate as a soft, blue flower, wearing a stunning blue-and-white dress. Her eyes were closed, and her lifeless body rested on the bed.
Adarsh observed her carefully and noticed that something was wrong with her body—she seemed extremely unwell. Her physical functions weren't operating normally.
Despite her condition, Adarsh was overjoyed. At least he found a human here. However, Adarsh had limited time left. To assess his current situation, he opened his system panel to check for updates.
[Mission Update]
[Mission: Use Divine Power to be reborn as a human.]
Reward: Control Power.
[Time: 1 month / 7 days remaining.]
[Divine Power: 1.5%.]
Three days had passed since Adarsh arrived at this place. Although he had found a human, he only had seven days and 1.5% of his Divine Power remaining. With such limited Divine Power, searching for another human wasn't a feasible option. Adarsh realized that his fate now depended on this woman.
However, the woman's physical condition was poor, and Adarsh had no idea what was wrong with her. Most importantly, he didn't even know if she was a virgin, which was crucial for his mission. Considering his limited Divine Power, he decided to focus on her and use his remaining resources wisely.
Adarsh made up his mind to enter her soul realm using his Divine Power. But as he attempted to enter, he encountered a dense black mist that seemed to shroud her soul realm. The mist obstructed his entry and even tried to consume his Divine Sense. However, due to the strength of his Divine Power, the mist couldn't harm him.
This black mist was gradually consuming the woman's soul realm, pushing her closer to death. Adarsh thought, Her body and soul are both in terrible condition. Who knows what happened to her? But this isn't the time to dwell on such thoughts.
Determined, Adarsh began cutting through the black mist with his Divine Sense, forcing his way into her soul realm. As he continued clearing the mist, he finally glimpsed a radiant glow of white and golden light. Seeing the glow, Adarsh quickly advanced toward it.
