Triune: The broken path
Chapter 43: OBLIVION

Chapter 43: Chapter 43: OBLIVION

Kael had been sitting cross-legged in one place for hours, his robe drenched in sweat. His body trembled, and his facial expression twisted in pain.

Merging concepts wasn’t just about pulling two forces together—it required integrating their components, including their abilities and weaknesses, to create a singularity far stronger than the original three while eliminating their flaws.

At this moment, the three orbs of concepts had finally made contact and had begun to evolve.

This was the most critical and dangerous phase. Any mishap, and Kael would undoubtedly die.

"Hahaha... What terrifying being isn’t crazy?" Kael laughed, even as he screamed in pain.

Whether he became something great in the future depended entirely on this moment. But Kael wasn’t backing down—after all, the path to ultimate strength was never a leisurely walk.

**********

Muyin. That was his name.

It meant "called upon."

Muyin was the son of the three-armed giant patriarch, a young warrior who had fallen in love with Riya of the Wakon race. As expected, he pursued her relentlessly, and eventually, he won her heart—but not without them enduring both good times and hardship.

Muyin’s talent, as well as Riya’s, was considered exceptional in the low lands. But in the middle lands, they were mediocre at best. The highest they could ever hope to reach was the False God realm—anything beyond that was wasted effort.

Muyin knew this. Riya knew it too. And that was when they truly connected. She gave him a chance, and he cherished it, striving to become the best version of himself.

The two, though limited by talent, fell in love and decided to spend eternity together. But mortals dream, while fate decides otherwise.

One day, Sujikn, the greatest scientist of the Wakon race, made a breakthrough in her experiments. And with it, Riya saw hope—hope to break through her limits.

She took it.

Born without a concept, she had to rely on genetic modification. Only a select few could wield a concept, and even fewer could reach the level of a Low God. In the War Realm, those without a concept could, at most, break through to the Minor God realm, but even that was rare—most stopped at False God.

This opportunity... Riya had to seize it. And Muyin was there to support her all the way.

After the experiment’s success, Muyin went to see Riya. They talked, laughed, and for a brief moment, things were as they had always been. A loving couple, side by side.

But then, everything changed.

Riya became busier, seeing him less and less until, finally, she vanished for several years.

When she returned, she was already a Low God. Muyin smiled and greeted her—only to be ignored.

Stunned, he didn’t know how to react. But later that night, she came to him and explained everything.

When Riya had broken through to the Low God level, many gods had taken an interest in her. If they saw her interacting with Muyin, his life would be in danger. That was why she had distanced herself. As for why she had been so busy, it was due to her intense training.

Muyin was touched. He kissed her. And she responded.

That night, Muyin made up his mind. He would leave. He didn’t tell Riya—only disappearing, leaving her to discover his absence on her own.

Months passed before Muyin finally stumbled upon something—a relic of a forgotten clan. Within it, he encountered a chance to change his fate. A change in bloodline.

He was given two paths:

1. Become an immortal of the human race.

2. Become a beast.

Muyin rejected the beast bloodline without hesitation and chose the path of immortality.

At first, he thought he would transform into a human—but he didn’t. And he was glad.

A few years later, he returned, standing before Riya as her equal. Thanks to the cultivation resources hidden within the relic’s space, he had reached her level.

Their love story seemed destined for a happy ending.

Then Muyin found it—a treasure of the Middle God realm.

It increased the chances of breaking through to Middle God by ten percent.

It was useless to Muyin. He had no need for it. So he planned to give it to Riya.

What he didn’t expect... was that Riya would kill him for it.

he was a cultivator—he didn’t need it either. So Muyin, dying, asked her why.

She gave a pathetic excuse.

"In the future, you’ll say you helped me reach this realm. Besides, this thing is too precious... You can’t know. No one can know. If word spreads, I’ll be in danger. And if there’s a treasure of this level, then a hidden space of the Middle God must be nearby. I can’t share it. I have too many people to protect."

Muyin closed his eyes.

Anger burned within him.

But in the end... it was done.

Thanks to his secrecy, Riya never knew that, in addition to the Middle God treasure, Muyin had also obtained the Bead of Reincarnation.

And so, he went back to the past.

This time, he would make her life miserable.

Her concept? A mere fire concept.

*********

"But things do change..." Muyin murmured.

He understood variables. He knew about the butterfly effect.

This time, she had obtained her concept much earlier—and it had likely changed.

The prodigy of the Dragon race and the Space-Time girl... They hadn’t existed in his previous life either.

Everything was different.

Sitting in his room, Muyin planned his next move.

"If she’s gotten stronger, then I have to as well. My knowledge of the future can’t be trusted completely. But first... I need to go to that forbidden land. That bloodline is mine."

He gazed in a certain direction.

For revenge, he would do anything.

Even if it meant taking the beast path.

Yes. This time, Muyin would embrace the beast within. Cultivation was too slow for him—but the beast path was the best shortcut.

Muyin grinned.

All he had to do was devour.

By consuming other creatures, he would grow stronger—quickly.

Muyin looked at his three giant arms and sighed.

"I can’t believe the Three-Armed Giants are merely a failed race..."

The true race had six arms.

"I will evolve my bloodline to that... with the help of the beast bloodline."

**************

"Sigh... Incomplete."

It had been almost a day when Kael finally opened his eyes. The three concepts within him had vanished, replaced by a singular, massive concept. It had no distinct form, yet Kael felt a strange, intrinsic connection to it.

Previously, his concepts had existed within him, but they always felt separate—like external forces he controlled. Now, however, the concept felt like a natural part of him, as integral as his own blood, perhaps even closer... like his very soul.

Kael didn’t fully understand what he had created, but the name came to him instantly.

"Oblivion."

All-Seer

Name: Kael

Rank: Demigod (Low)

Concept: Oblivion – A perfect fusion of Void (endless emptiness), Chaos (destruction and war), and Nothingness (the absence of existence). Oblivion represents total erasure—where existence collapses into an abyss of nothingness, governed by chaos.

Abilities: Erasure, Collapse, Hollow, Chaotic Whisper,All seer.

Form: Oblivion (Incomplete), Hunger (Influences the desire for power, turning it into an insatiable hunger, driving enemies insane).

Oblivion Body (Incomplete)

Defense against other concepts.

Embraces nothingness, rendering physical attacks ineffective unless they surpass a certain power threshold.

Instant regeneration from any injury.

Extremely fast energy conversion.

Devours all surrounding energy upon activation.

Grants access to the Nothingness Realm, Void Realm, and Chaos Realm.

"Too bad it’s incomplete..." Kael muttered with a bitter smile as he stood up.

His body had changed—he felt taller by a few inches. His previously lean frame had become well-defined and muscular, though not excessively so. For a ten-year-old, Kael now had an almost perfect physique for his age.

"This Oblivion Body must be tested... And not just that, the abilities I’ve gained are massive. What exactly is ’Erasure’?"

Standing firmly on his feet, Kael took a step forward—

And in the next instant, he found himself standing in front of a thick tree stump, thousands of meters away.

He stopped himself in shock, eyes widening as he struggled to look back.

The mountain where he had just been was now thousands of meters away.

Kael was stunned. In the Realm of War Plane, traveling such a distance in a moment was no small feat. To even damage this realm, one needed the power to destroy a solar system. To break a twig, one had to be strong enough to destroy a planet.

Not to mention the realm’s intense gravity—if he were outside, Kael’s speed would have surpassed the speed of light multiple times over.

"This is insane... Is this really the speed a demigod is supposed to have?" he muttered, struggling to grasp his newfound strength.

Then, Kael realized something amusing—he never truly understood how strong he was, which only proved just how powerful he had become.

And he wasn’t even using the Oblivion Form yet.

What if he did? Tens of thousands of meters in an instant would be nothing...

And this was still incomplete.

What if it were complete?

His mind raced as he took a deep breath, then slowly closed his eyes.

Kael stood still for a few minutes before finally opening them again. He turned around effortlessly.

"Controlling this strength is so easy..." he thought. Now that his concept was truly part of him, he understood his abilities and limits far better than before.

"Well then, let’s try an ability."

A grin formed on his face as he gazed at the massive mountain in front of him.

"First off is..."

Kael’s grin widened.

"Erasure."

The world stood still.

And then—

The mountain simply ceased to exist.

Like it had never been there in the first place.

**************

Meanwhile, unknown to Kael...

The High Gods stood frozen in utter shock.

In the Origin Realm, where all concepts were observed, something impossible had happened.

A new concept had emerged.

Until now, all concepts had been categorized and studied. The emergence of the Space-Time Concept had been a major shift...

And now, another completely new concept had appeared—standing alone.

The surrounding gods watched in silence as their gazes fell upon the two newly recognized concepts:

Space-Time.

Oblivion.

A whisper broke the silence.

"The dawn of change is near..."

The High Gods’ eyes gleamed as their minds raced, filled with countless possibilities.

***********

Deep within the Void of Nothingness, a massive prison drifted in the abyss.

Its walls were forged from materials capable of contracting space and dilating time.

Inside, a figure lay chained.

Chains composed of concepts themselves bound him in place.

Suddenly, the being’s body trembled.

A manic laugh echoed through the void.

"Interesting... First, Space-Time... and now, Oblivion... Hahaha!"

Two blazing red eyes, drenched in darkness, gleamed through the endless void.
