A few days passed and the boys spent all of their time with the babies. They knew that they were going to be very busy in the near future and wanted to be with the babies as much as they could. And, the babies had been finally named.
The baby boy was named Zein, and the baby girl was named Zia. The boys finally left the babies alone and got to work.
The first thing that they did was enter the Dimension Seed. They thought about entering the Seed, and a golden portal made of Faith manifested in front of them. They entered the portal and found themselves in a weird space.
They couldn’t determine the end and the beginning of this space. It just...sort of existed. It was very weird. Nothing existed there except for clouds. Purple and golden clouds filled the Seed as far as they could see. It was these clouds that formed the ground, these clouds that floated in the air, everything was just clouds.
The boys tried to hold a small cloud in their hands and found that the clouds were none other than a condensed form of the Faith that they had collected so far. Once they understood this, it suddenly dawned on them that they were this Dimension Seed’s masters.
They tried to control the Faith clouds but were only able to control a part of it. Even though it belonged to them, its sheer quantity was too much for them to control on their own. The small portion that they were able to control, surprised them.
In the material world or Dimension Zero, Faith was pretty impressive energy. You could do almost anything with enough Faith and it was nigh inexhaustible. As long as sentient beings existed, so would Faith. The reason that they were surprised was because this Dimension Seed removed the ’almost’ from ’almost anything’.
With enough Faith, they realised, they could do anything except for cultivation here. And even that restriction only existed because it wasn’t cost efficient. If they wished, they could use an exorbitant amount of Faith and turn it into a small amount of will free mana. The only thing limiting them was their imagination.
With that being said, they first needed to find a way to control all of the Faith in the Seed. They thought about it for a long time. Cass said, "Hey Zeke, our Totem works as an antenna for Faith, right? What if we use the Faith that we can control and condense it into a huge Totem?"
Zeke replied, "I’m not sure if it would work but there’s no harm trying. I have an idea."
Zeke discussed the Idea that he had with Cass. After sorting out the details, they got to work. Both of them separated three drops of their blood essence each. Blood essence, also known as heart blood and life blood was the core of their bloodline. Some believed that it was the physical manifestation of a person’s Life force.
Separating even one was dangerous let alone three. This weakened them considerably, almost bringing them to death’s door, but with their natural healing that was boosted by their Life Affinity and Innate Skill: Phoenix Resurgence, they would soon be able to recover.
Ignoring their weakness, they used Faith to control the blood drops to fuse together and form a small blob of blood. They then mixed their blood together and separated it into three drops.
Looking at the three drops of their combined blood essence floating in front of them, they took a deep breath. Then, they drew three Totems with them. Into the three totems, they infused mana.
In the first one, they infused Life and Solar Light attributed mana, Lunar Shadow and Soul in the next, and finally, in the third one, they infused mana containing all five of their Affinities. The Totems, as if suddenly coming to life, started glowing.
All of the Faith in the Seed started rushing towards them. Now they had to take the final step in their preparations. While the Faith was rushing towards the Totems, Zeke focused his Will on the Totems. This was an advanced application of Will known as Reality Manifestation, that one could utilise after attaining an S Grade Will.
It was the first stage of Will application. There were three known stages; Reality Manifestation, Reality Materialisation, and Reality Bending. With Reality Manifestation, one can manifest their Will in the material world in the form of an illusion or projection.
In the second stage, Reality Materialisation, one can materialise their Will in the material world and interact with it, relying solely on their Will. This includes controlling objects without the use of mana.
Finally, in the third stage, Reality Bending, one can alter and bend reality as we know it to their whims. Of course, there are limitations but it is still an extremely powerful ability.
Even with an SS Grade Will stat, Zeke could only use the first stage.
Albeit his usage could be considered a half-baked Reality Materialisation. This was because Zeke was manifesting the celestial bodies of his Racial Trait, Celestial Trinity with their respective attributed mana Totems.
Faith being a form of energy that was incredibly reactive to Will, heeded his command. As the Faith was attracted to the Totems, the manifestations were slowly transforming from mere projections to real celestial bodies. Once this process started, the speed at which Faith was rushing towards the Totems accelerated.
The boys watched in wonder, as the Totems transformed into three celestial bodies. Then the celestial bodies moved and settled in their places. In the dead centre of the Seed, was a rotating celestial planet. Revolving around it were the Sun and the Moon.
This was much different than the material world, where Earth revolved around the Sun. They focused on the Sun. It resembled a ball of white flames. They could feel the scorching volatile energy that it contained along with the gentle warmth of life.
Parallel to the Sun was the Moon. Unlike Earth’s Moon, this one was purple in colour. It was a purple so deep and dark that it was almost black. It seemed capable of devouring all light, but weirdly enough, it was still reflecting sunlight onto the celestial planet in the form of purple moonlight.
The atmosphere in the Seed changed. As the masters of the Dimension Seed, they could feel the changes that had taken place.
They could tell that the size of the Seed had condensed. If before, it was a seed, then now it had initially sprouted. They also gained the ability to communicate with anybody that provided them with Faith
They could feel that rules had begun forming in the Seed. And that they could influence those rules according to their needs. In the Seed, they felt that they had become true gods. It was an intoxicating feeling.
Cass looked at Zeke and asked, "What are we going to do with this place?"
Zeke replied, "This will be our lair. Our very own Batcave. Or Fortress of Solitude. But on a completely different scale. We can craft it into a stronghold and home for all Neo-Nephilims."
Cass ignored the first part of what Zeke said and focused on the rest. He said, "Hmm...that’s actually not a bad idea. I mean, it’s the perfect place for any Neo-Nephilim. We can even use it as a common jump point."
Zeke looked confused. He asked, "Common jump point?"
Cass replied, "Think about it. Whenever we want to travel somewhere far away, we open a portal to the Seed and enter it. Then, using a believer that is near or at our destination as a beacon, we open another portal and et voilà!"
Zeke was silent. Not because Cass’s idea was absurd, but because he hadn’t even considered anything like it. He looked at Cass and said, "Either my intellect rubbed off on you or your company made me dumb. Possibly both."
Cass smacked Zeke’s head. Zeke exclaimed, "Oww! What the hell, Cass? Why do you and Uncle Dean like smacking my head so much?"
Cass replied, "Cause you deserve it dumbass."
After bickering for a while, they got to work and started constructing the rules according to their wishes. While they were doing so, their senses heightened immensely. It was at this time that alarms started ringing in Zeke’s head.
It was as if there was an invisible sword on his neck, ready to behead him at any moment. This feeling only lasted for a second or two but cold sweat had broken out on his back. He looked at Cass and asked, "Did you feel that?"
