Chapter 1088 The Reveal.

"Did we do it?" Legion-7 asked after finishing the placement.

This is the first time that they will reach this stage after they started working on it more than a thousand years ago. None of them dared to breathe a sigh of relief. Even the Legions that are not here have most of their attention tuned in to see what will come of their endeavor.

"It hasn't exploded yet which is a good thing. So let's wait and see," Soverick replied.

The middle layer is vibrating and oscillating in a unique manner. It is creating a sound like no other. But weak beings can't hear this sound. This is a good thing. The frequency of the sound is so high that any weak being that can hear it will become mad immediately.

The problem is that the sound can be understood by anyone who can hear it. It is just full of so much information that their minds will implode from trying to comprehend it. Generally, only transcendents with a solidified divine sense can hear it and safely comprehend the information contained within it. A mana entity with a powerful soul might regret being able to hear the sound of the law matrix they built.

Soverick gave the law matrix one final observation. None of the layers touch so each of them is like multicolored leaves shaking in the leaf. They look packed tightly against each other but they both attract and resist each other in equal amounts.

This balance of attraction and repulsion has been kept fairly constant right from the moment that there were just two of them. Now there are close to a billion of them within the 200-meter sphere that they have formed.

The forces of attraction are both gravitational, electromagnetic, and spiritual. They are in flux at every moment. The force of rejection of Layer B for Layer A must increase at the same amount in the same amount of time in synchrony with the increase of the force of attraction of Layer A for Layer B. This little interaction must occur in balance 1 billion such times in a millionth of a second for the middle layer to be stable.

Soverick gave his verdict. "It looks good to me."

"This is the moment of truth." The tree father said in anticipation.

Then he controlled the Authority of the Celestial Supreme to start the operation of the law matrix. Mana and Origin Energy was made available to the law matrix. It caused the middle layer to start rotating around the core. The pitch of the sound of the law matrix increased drastically because of it. Visible and non-visible light flashed from the arrangement in multiple frequencies.

They didn't need to wait for long to see the result of their actions. They built the layers perfectly. Each layer interacted with the whole in perfect harmony while still behaving as independent individuals with their own properties. It is just like the laws within a law matrix work. The sound the middle layer created was a perfect symphony of the greatest music to the ears.

Everything looked good. The world engine was supposed to kickstart now. It was supposed to create power and bring the entire layers into perpetual motion for infinite possibilities of the billions of states to be derived.

The world engine was supposed to power the interaction of the different layers so that concepts, or facsimiles of them could be created. Then the underlying law of order within the specific arrangement was to be made manifest. But the world engine refused to move. So the law matrix stuttered. Then it moved towards the dreaded outcome.

They didn't say anything. They all wordlessly tried to prevent the collapse from happening. All four of them injected their divine power or soul power into the golden sphere through their divine sense. They tried to keep the layers stable. But the layers couldn't be stopped. They are complete now so they must interact. They will do so with or without the world engine.

The best that Legion could do was to keep the layers in the path that had been devised for them. So the underlying order would be maintained. But it will not be in the form that they wanted. The layers pulled energy from the Authority of the Celestial Supreme. They consumed all the Origin energy like a glutton as the layers fell into each other like dominos.

There was a flash of multicolored light within the inner world. The law matrix of the void universe within the inner world flashed in response. Layers of multicolored tapestry just beneath the world of manifestation were revealed for an instant. They are usually invisible but they were brought to the surface forcefully. Then they were gone just as they came. A bright multicolored ball was left in their wake.

Soverick rubbed his eyes and his head. Legion-1 said, "I suppose that wasn't so bad."

The green elf examined the multicolored ball in curiosity. He poked and prodded it with his divine sense. Then he actually touched it with his hands.

"Did we just create a seed of power?" he asked after finishing his examination.

Legion-1 agreed after thinking about it for a while. "At least the law matrix of the void universe thinks so."

The law matrix vetted the product and chose to allow it to exist so it must be something lesser than the world god level and could be a functional concept since it is part of the law matrix now.

The multicolored hybrid of jellyfish and octopus in the sky added his thoughts. "I don't think it is that simple. I believe that this is Authority and not just any seed of concept."

Helios said, "They are the same thing."

Legion-7 didn't agree. "The seed of concept is self-manufactured while Authority is bestowed. They are different."

The dragon clone supported Helios. "Their difference only goes as far as their process of acquisition. They are basically the same thing. They are both manifestations of POWER in the void universe. And who is to say that Authority cannot be created?"
