A Circle Of Time

The Golden Circle was something which was passed down to Arieanna by her master just before his death and since then she has possessed the golden armlet her master had been keeping as his most prized possession. Which peculiarly when she took possession of it, it automatically turned into a Golden Ring although it didn't possess any engravings or markings it emanated a very subtle golden aura one which radiated a sense of utter stubbornness, it was how a princess would look down at a pleasant.

The ring seemed to retaliate against Arieanna but it couldn't cause any harm to her due to the order by her previous master and her own binding of not being able to directly hurt her master. Although it couldn't retaliate that doesn't mean it will just give this girl the ability to use her power. Although that was supposed to be the plan the Exalted Race soon faced a massive problem during that time even them with their ability to recover their lives after few hundred years even after dying but hundreds of masters started dying mysteriously and in ways unexplainable and in such a way that they no longer come back from dying.

This caused un unprecedented panic for all of the Exalted Race, ever since the beginning the Exalted Race has been using this to progress their cultivation to dominate everything but ever since this started everyone lost completely freaked out. What made the matters worse it that the previous generation Emperor who was supposed to revive on that day did not revive and that meant that the strongest of the Great Exalted Race will not return from the dead and what that implies is that the thousands of empires he has offended and destroyed will come back for revenge. Although they have the best military in the Universe their main force has always been the overwhelming Emperor and now with his loss and this unknown cause which is killing some of the strongest members in the Empire, they are in Dire Straits and the entire Empire will collapse at this rate and that is when Arieanna stepped up and utilised her Ultimate ability in order to find the main cause of the problem and solve it.

This is the final stand Arieanna will get against Machiavellian because once he has stolen her Ultimate Ability and has access to the Golden Circle no one will be able to do anything against him. Arieanna uses her remaining energy to attack him from outside, although she can't break out of her chains, she can attempt to attack him when he has his guard down because of his belief in his victory. She uses her ultimate spell which doesn't require Origin Energy but requires the sacrifice of life force.

Life force is something which grants everyone the ability to revive back even after dying. This is how the exalted race are different from all other races because of their ample supply of life force. The sheer amount of their life force allows them to dominate most worlds.

They develop worlds to gather more origin energy which they use to cultivate and develop more worlds to develop more Origin Energy to cultivate more in order to increase their life force in order to die and revive again to get to the next stage.

This cycle has been going on for hundreds of generations and for millions of years but till date only one person has ever achieved that stage but he doesn't exist anymore so most of the details have been just made up and everyone keeps dying and reviving because of it. The person said to be the closest to the original transcendent was the Emperor and with his demise the populous demanded that even more.

Out of 300 of the Exalted Race alive at any time only 180 were still alive others had their life forces s.u.c.k.e.d out of them which surmised the look for the cause of the Emperor and others not reviving.

This was the crisis of the Exalted Race which was resolved by Arieanna and now that she wishes to utilise her incomparable life force to hurt Machiavellian even he can't resist it so he took the stance to attack her first but just as he was going to release an attack his aura was diverted and was drawn to an energy signature which was although not comparable to his own it was in top 20 among all of the Exalted Race and he knew everyone of them an their auras, this one however he didn't and although he didn't know who this was and their Aura was weaker than his own, it incited a sense of immense pressure on him.

While he was distracted he was hit by the Deified Punch of Arieanna and got a huge gash on his face from it. Although that attack didn't amount to much outside his body but inside all of his Origin Energy has been dispersed enough to cause complete dispersion.

"Who are you, who interrupted me with your presence?"

"Boy? Is that you? What are you doing here? Didn't I ask you to leave?"

"How can I leave, while leaving you behind?"

"You really are stupid, boy."

"Well you too, if he wasn't distracted now you would have died."

"Well, I wouldn't die without taking him together with me."

"Well, whatever. Let's leave first. this guy told me that there is an entire army en route"

Red said after throwing the dead body of Vortigernus in front of Arieanna and Machiavellian.

"Oh, you killed that bastard. That's good, very good. So let me do my part too and lets head back."

"Fine, don't take too long though."

"Machiavellian, you messed up. So now I won't show mercy either."

"Noooooooo!!!!!! Don't ki...."

As that exchange took place, Arieanna had already decapitated him. She knew better than leaving enemies free to come and be able to take revenge.

"Let's head to my world."

Red said as he opened a portal and took Arieanna through. Although she was putting a fierce expression Arieanna was severely injured and all of her energy had left her body as she dragged her feet and came with Red.

"Abbie, I have brought Arieanna please take care of her and see if she is alright."

"Ok, please put her on the bed for the guests"

"Alright, Arieanna you sleep and rest now. I will handle everything and be back"

"Abbie, these enemies are out of this world and no one can handle them except me and Arieanna so you and Grandpa please take care of here till I come back."

As I closed and left my realm, in front of me already there were energy signatures of 13 experts of Origin Realm approaching here.

"That arrogant idiot can't even give proper information, oh well he is dead. Not that it's going to matter."

"Die"

"Erase"

"Devour"

"Will"

"Primordial"

"Origin"

Red said those 6 words and everything in that AOE disappeared, it was an attack which was nearly unprecedented because the people who had this much power aren't normally seen fighting enough to be able to cause this much damage.

Out of those 13 only 3 lived, which means these are opponents he needs to be careful against. These 3 had the power to defend against 'Red's will' although they are still severely injured by the attacks they are still alive so he can do better.

"Come"

Red instigated them while getting into his stance in order to end these people, although he has the ability to defeat all of them, all of them have special abilities and will revive soon in order to take revenge again, that is why Red had used devour and erase, to devour all of the Life Force and energy they possess and erase anything else which was left.

They fell for it as they straight up flew into the trap set up by Red setting it off as Red head's towards them and initiates combat with a huge attack.
