Breakthrough to Master Class, new skills

The Exoplanet 15 light-years away from Eteria, named "Eon" by Xander.

Xander was carefully exploring the surrounding forests, jungles, and grasslands that seemed to coexist perfectly with one another. The planet was already two-thirds covered with life, with the remaining still being barren. However, the atmosphere had fully stabilized, as well as the circulation of physical matter in the area produced by the elements.

He was exploring as he was waiting for the System to completely categorize the information that it had managed to copy from the database of the empire, sorting it from Spell information, people's information, Godhood, political matters, etc. It has been doing the categorizing process for the past hour, and since Xander didn't have anything to do at that time, he headed down the planet and began to explore the budding exoplanet.

He basically saw different species of animals and plants all over the planet. There weren't any sentient species so far, so there wasn't much to do. There were a lot of edible fruits though growing from trees in forests and jungles but didn't harvest them all because he might destroy the ecosystem.

Xander found an empty piece of land in the planet, where no life could be observed, and created a space barrier and created a time acceleration field of 1 second: 10 years. He used that time to observe and understand the red fragments he had harvested; there were a total of 108 large pieces and 1080 small pieces, all of them having varying sizes to one another.

He began to observe, prod and analyze the pieces one by one, from the smallest piece to the largest one.

Time passed. Years, decades, centuries, millennias, teraseconds pass by. Within that period, Xander was continuously comprehending the aspects of elemental creation under Order and Chaos elements, deepening his understanding of the paired origin elements.

Order. The establishment of the rules, the appearance of everything and anything. The invisible, guiding force that directs random, chaotically-driven movements into an ordered formation, creating the framework of the ordered system. Everything is rigid, everything is set in its place.

Chaos. The establishment of randomness, the birth of creativity and evolution; life becomes an interesting play in the eyes of the Spectator, the invisible, chaotic force empowering the movements of anything and everything into existence. The rules may have been established, but the rules now come in different configurations and comprehensions, reaching their own extremes, as well as the possibility of the rules being destroyed and devoured by other rules.

This phenomenon of chaos is in itself a form of Order, but not completely order; the change and evolution of any actions/interactions are not completely defined, but results in possibilities, indicating form and structure are not rigid and permanent, but there is an ordered, myriad transformation process for all thing that can be or cannot be determined depending on the viewer.

One gives birth to the other, supplementing and contradicting one another at their extremes, creating a creative power that can defy the Void element, giving birth to the 3 sets of paired origin elements, producing everything out of anything and nothing.

Yin-Yang. The foundation of the Physical dimension. Light came from Darkness, and the combination of the 2 brought out the 5 elements of Water, Fire, Air, Earth/Metal, and Wood. From these elements, more and more elements were born, from the interaction of the elements under Life-Death, and Space-time elements themselves.

The physical realm is founded on the 7 main elements and their derived products and their sub-elements. They form both the tangible and semi-tangible, existing in a microscopic to a macroscopic sense of the universe. The interaction with other origin elements led to the formation of multiple, different elemental or unique dimensions.

Life-Death. The foundation of the Metaphysical dimensions. The manifestation of order and chaos elements guides the physical and all other dimensions. From life came death, and from the cycle of the two, the overflow of data created the Fate series of elements, ranging from Karma, Fortune, Reincarnation, Purgatory, Heaven, and Hell element series that were a combination of the products of Yin-Yang and Space-time elements as well.

These elements are what affects low to higher-order creatures in the universe, allowing chaotic entropy to occur, branching out one's actions/interactions into a multitude of possibilities, subdividing actions/interactions into minor, major, and climactic points in one's existence. Life is what was born from Order and Chaos elements, forming beings that are impermanent and living in transitory lives. Immortal is never immortal, and Mortal is never mortal. It is never constant but always changing and transforming, no matter the order of one's life.

Space-Time. The foundation of all dimensions, the framework that every dimension, space, and reality use to encapsulate the ordered system. Space gave rise to Time within the void, allowing the progression from nihility to infinity. The combination of the two elements allowed the formation of realities in the ordered system, which is basically a possible calculation that has been derived by the ordered system but never used, separate from one another beyond the concept of dimensions, but existing in the same ordered system.

The ordered system is basically a computing machine, that is both logical and illogical at the same time.

It is immaterial and cannot be contained in a physical or immaterial presence.

Space-time allows it to have its products encapsulated and manifested into forms. Yin-Yang materializes them in physical or semi-physical forms. The ordered system is capable of calculating the possible "scenarios" within the encapsulated ordered system, storing them in their own virtual sandbox, all generated with the power and influence of Life-Death origin elements and its derivatives.

Only someone who can control both Space-time elements can actually leave their virtual sandbox, and get (copy), delete, or overwrite data from another virtual sandbox.

Only those that have broken through God class could actually have the same ability as someone who can control and manipulate space-time elements, albeit weaker than one blessed to control it.

However, they can never destroy or absorb the ordered system, no matter what stage they reach, because they have integrated a part of power into the system, in exchange for being able to create their own universes upon reaching God class.

This means that if someone attempted to absorb the universe they came from, he or she or it would have to contend with the numerous life-essences that contain portions of consciousness and power that make up the ordered system as more and more sentient beings transcend their limits and step into the path of Godhood in the Divine stage.

Generally, the best time to absorb a universe is when it is a nascent one. The older the universe, the harder it would be to completely absorb or integrate the universe into one's own universe.

This is because every person's universe is unique upon reaching the God class, because the unity of their primary elements would produce a different configuration and not necessarily the same configuration as someone else. If one absorbs a mature universe, that being must ensure that the universe he/she/it has is actually strong enough to destabilize, devour, and replace the ordered system's universe.

He continued to delve deeper into the mysteries within the shards.

…

…

He was there for a total of 5 hours or 180,000 years.

He opened his eyes, and time returned to normal, with the elemental concentration in the small, 10-meter radius area rapidly spreading all over the barren land, and even reaching the other end of the planet where life was already present. Life continued to flourish and advance; time began to work on the animals and plants, creating the budding formation of sprites, magic beasts, and even sentient beings from non-biological and biological matter.

The moment his eyes opened, a magical and elemental wave appeared from his current position, echoing throughout the planet, causing the life that was just developing to be disrupted, being distorted before crumbling on itself. Everything rapidly experienced the flow of time and fate, space distorting, creating pockets of space all over the planet. The planet was collapsing on its own, the greenery dying and turning brown, the seas, rivers, and lakes started to dry up, the atmosphere disappeared.

The moment he closed his eyes, the magic and elemental wave he released all over the planet contracted towards his location, everything was back to normal as if nothing had just happened. Life was still the same. There were no sprites, no magic beasts, or sentient beings. Xander was shocked to the core. He didn't know if what he was experiencing was a reality or just a possibility.

He continued to test it by opening and closing his eyes. He also found out by just opening and closing his mouth, his clenched fist, he could also elicit the same phenomenon. After a few hours, he stopped, because he felt that the space-time around the planet was weakening due to his repeated attacks.

He decided to name it [In a Moment] and wasn't sure how to classify this spell, since it encapsulates the power of creation and destruction, and at the same time, everything and nothing.

At this point, he heard a chiming sound from his mind; the System had finished cataloging a large amount of data that it had copied and stolen from the virtual reality world.

It also notified him that the system had upgraded.

When Xander began to read the information about it, he was surprised. It seems the universe is truly big; he never thought of discovering a dimension that was actually made up of data!

Yep, that's basically the virtual reality Xander had entered. Accordingly, this dimension was discovered by the empire 15,000,000 years ago and allowed the empire to enter the Universal stage, not limited by other galaxies, clusters, and the like. They rapidly expanded over 15,000,000 years. Although their domain now consisted of 1/1.26e+30 of the universe, they are considered a small, universal empire compared to other behemoths.

Although there were several cases wherein the council members wanted to change the name of the empire to Federation Empire from the Galactic Empire, the name was always vetoed by the ruling speaker.

The largest public virtual reality program in the empire, [Second Life], is one of the many sandboxes in the data dimension. The mainframe A.I. is in charge of the sector, or server, in the dimension that the empire currently owns. It seems when the system hacked into the mainframe server, the A.I. managed to detect it due to the System going on a rampage rather than the insidious type of infiltration, and it attempted to stop the System from doing its task, and failed to do so, and was forced by the system to shut down and restart.

In that time frame, all the data stored in the server were copied, and all the bits of data in the inventory of the avatars in the private and public programs were harvested permanently by the System, allowing it to upgrade, which was why it took a long time to sort and categorize the data.

At the same time, it did leave a gift for the digital life-form, as the system and Xander did intrude and destroy its home; it allowed the digital life-form to skip levels during the rebooting and growth process.

He browsed through all the available spells from Master to God class, and finally found a spell that was so complex that it could not be inscribed into a regular magic seed, causing it to be delegated under the forbidden spells not to be used as a foundational spell.

It was the God spell [Ender's End].

[Ender's End]: Everything returns to dust, with the collapse of time and space, everything soon follows. The area it is cast upon falls into ruin, the area creating a momentary hole in the universe, before returning back to normal. The caster loses 1 point in vitality every time it is cast, whether successful or not.

Xander quickly began the inscription process into his very dense, very large magic seed. After 2 hours, all the runic writings and formations were inscribed perfectly, causing his seed to emit the fluctuations of space-time elements, with a hint of chaos elements.
