Chapter 186: The Thing Deep Below Us?
..........
Yasuo set his eyes upon that strange object in the center. A transparent cone-shaped object with some kind of static liquid inside. The most striking things however are the bright purple lines running all over the object, 'Perfect.' He thought.
Violet lines, the signature mark of his violet rose ability though it's quite apparent those lines were there for a while, more than five seconds which is the limit of his violet rose.
The only natural conclusion is his delayed rose which is a part of the ability though it can last infinitely as long as he's alive and can handle the continuous consumption.
If his Aura pool was to be fully expended then it'll remain existing but won't be spreading anymore, the purple lines will remain unmoving until his Aura becomes available.
Yasuo didn't touch it, instead, he turned his attention to something his domain picked. He then directly teleported to the side of the flaring holes all around.
He lightly touched the rocky wall before him only for it to disintegrate in his hands into nothing but mere sand. What lied beyond is what at first look appeared to be a massive dark rock.
Yasuo however knows betters, a dead creature. What he's looking at is the dry skin of a dead creature, what looks like a colossal serpent.
Not just that, he can see several of such creatures all around surrounding the transparent object, hidden behind the muddy and hark rocks that acted as the curtain that slowly shadowed the creatures through generations.
This isn't Yasuo's first time seeing such creatures as this wasn't the first time he headed to the depths of the planet.
When he was strong enough to ignore their threat and the creature that lies at the core, he saw them, he saw even more dangerous creatures deeper in the massive planet, living ones.
Not a sign of life was noticed anywhere close to the transparent object. Another creature or a part of the creature at least, a part spurting from the depths of the planet and sucked the life of anything that went near.
Yasuo smiled after completing his observation, 'Thankfully I prepared else all I would've faced there is death. And I saw into the future... All I saw is death until I was strong enough.'
Yasuo lightly lifted his right hand in which a tube appeared filled with some kind of dark blue liquid. "I worked so hard to make you and I guess it's time. Z sequence 10253, do what you were made for... Under my complete control of course."
Then the blue liquid within the tube was teleported directly from inside to the insides of the white transparent object before him spreading within the muddy white liquid inside and painting it in its color.
Yasuo didn't wait to see what'll happen nor was he interested in seeing the results, he directly started teleporting away back to the surface where the warm sunlight can again shine upon his pale face.
He stood above the ground and lifted his hand in which another test tube appeared, an empty one that soon became filled with a red liquid, the blood of Pariston who is miles away.
'He definitely noticed and I'm sure he's extremely angry and depressed by this point.' Thought Yasuo with amusement apparent in his eyes, 'Anyway, my collection has been completed so I'm done here... For now.'
He then headed back to the new base of the silver snake, a large walled village next to the river. Across the past month, Morena's loyal subordinates were working quite hard on building what could be called a temporary base.
The materials were transported through Yasuo's portal then they started their work and they finished it in just about two weeks with the help of Yasuo as well as Morena.
Both have an arsenal of abilities and some are useful in such fields. After which, about six thousand of their henchmen were left in the settlement and the rest spread around exploring the surroundings.
Each was given a job suitable for their talents or abilities if they have any. The exploration unit was being led by Orilin who joined them again after Yasuo teleported him to the settlement with his subordinates.
Yasuo regularly brought new batches of henchmen from the new world increasing their numbers, a process they plan on continuing until most of the family is here.
They will switch their headquarters from the Island to the dark continent and leave the Island as a secondary base. And for that, Yasuo was working on another project he just finished not long ago.
Inside the settlement lies a giant half-moon structure made of metal. Some kind of strange patterns were engraved all over it bringing a sense of elegance and mysteriousness to the structure.
The half-moon structure was closed by a similarly engrave metallic platform below it, they were tightly connected to each other allowing the structure to proudly stand upon the settlement.
"Will it really work? How? Even with how much you explained it to me, I'm still puzzled about how such a thing is possible."
Morena who is standing next to Yasuo couldn't help but wonder observing the work of art before her, this is the second one she had seen, the other one Yasuo delivered back to the Island.
With unwavering confidence, Yasuo answered calmly as he walked closer to the structure. "It will work though only you, Orilin and Cashew will be able to activate it but it will definitely work."
Yasuo didn't explain any further, instead, he started feeding his gentle calm Aura into the structure. That seems to trigger something as the patterns on it started lighting up getting brighter and brighter the more they devoured.
Yasuo's extremely refined and compressed Aura allowed him to activate the platform in no more than a minute where others would take hours.
A portal is what appeared within the half-moon structure. The same as the portals Yasuo creates appearing filling the semicircle on the platform.
Yasuo then held the stunned Morena's small hand and guided her into the portal while explaining.
"It will take you more time to activate it but it will always work as long as the fuel was available and it can be opened from either side."
They walked through it appearing right next to the headquarters in the Island where Yasuo built another platform.
Both of them are the source and the destination but all the rules of Yasuo's portals ability are also applied to them because that ability is what gave birth to such a work of art.
Even with her trust and belief in Yasuo and his abilities, Morena was still thoroughly left speechless with the prospect of such creation, if he creates more of them or other architects with different functionalities then...
"You really like to make the impossible possible." Remarked Morena as she leaned into his chest relaxing in his embrace.
"Accelerate the moving process, in fact, get some now while the portal is opened. It should stay active for about an hour though you can shut it down at any point by simply focusing your Aura on it with that intent."
Ordered Yasuo while caressing her silky hair and continued, "I'll be away for a few hours, okay?"
Morena nodded enjoying his gentle touch, "Just don't be late. I missed you, you know?"
Yasuo was a bit amused knowing what she means so he just gently kissed her forehead saying, "I'll be right on time so don't worry."
........
Yasuo didn't go too far, he went to the mushroom forest close by beyond the river though closed by in the dark continent means a few hundred miles.
He sat down on the tallest mushroom he found ignoring all the dangerous creatures around. He closed his eyes and focused on his own body, on his genes that are working on evolving all the time.
A change could be noticed on them, a change that wasn't there or was hidden. Some kind of strange patterns appearing as if engraved on his genetic structure.
Those patterns also appear engraved on all of his organs though they're so small they're completely unnoticeable to anyone else.
The patterns appear to be working as some kind of gears turning continuously and accelerating his constant evolution and changing his genetic structure constantly or evolving alongside him.
"It took more than I predicted." Remarked Yasuo after observing them for a while. The patterns are the result of his research, the result of the silver liquid he gave to Meruem to drink.
And the result was satisfying, they started spreading to his every gene and only finished that process recently. Patterns that will evolve alongside him and gain new functions as they evolve.
Patterns in his every cell and gene and their basic functions are simply ridiculous, one of them is strengthening his body, the same inscriptions he inscribes on things to make them harder to destroy.
Now, his already strong body has become much stronger. Its primary function however is quite simple, amplification. Amplifying the evolution process and making it faster as well as amplifying every function of his genes.
"Next is," Suddenly several test tubes appeared hovering in the air in front of him. He started drinking the dark red blood one by one leaving the most important one to last.
The last test tube which has a bit of Ging's blood, he slowly drank it allowing his genes to gain a valuable addition that'll push their functionality and power to a much higher level, after all, Ging can also mimic other people's abilities.
He remained static in his place for a few hours until he adapted completely to the new blood and the evolution process continued again.
Yasuo then slowly opened his eyes and turned his head to his left looking in a certain direction, 'Should I visit them today? Perhaps until tomorrow, I'll go with Morena and take it as a small vocation.' He thought before disappearing into the void of space.

Chapter 187: The Dark Ones Within The Dark
..........
Yasuo and Morena landed on a brown dry ground that went on for as far as the eyes can see. The air was humid and hot and life was rare in the surroundings.
A colossal mountain could be seen far away, possibly hundreds of miles away yet its astonishing size made it quite apparent and one can easily judge that the closer to the mountain the hotter it is.
The mountain is an active volcano ready to liberate itself to the world and a warning that approaching means death, living near it means death.
Yet here is Morena and Yasuo looking at the artifactual structures only a few miles away, one can easily conclude the buildings are made by the hands of intelligent beings.
Those intelligent beings appear to be humans as Yasuo and Morena both can see. Morena blinked as they appeared closer to the buildings only a hundred meters away.
About two dozens of buildings, some relatively small, and some are massive with numerous holes all over them.
That's what makes them look like buildings, in reality, they're just well-structured rocks the humans within modified to become suitable to live in.
Ladders could also be noticed all over the buildings, ladders of ropes. They are connected from the holes to the ground allowing the inhabitants to go in and out.
Just like how several other humans started climbing down the ladder while the rest already stood facing the unknown intruders.
Humans of all ages wearing what looks like a uniform of sorts, the same design but various colors though most are wearing a red one.
A clear design of a red sun was on their every outfit. A red shining sun surrounded by a circle. Aside from their clear scarlet eyes, they look like normal humans.
Yasuo started walking closer holding Morena's hand who also did the same. The clan similar to the Kurta clan didn't seem to be minding.
Instead, an old woman walked to the front of her people with a harmless smile on her face and waited for the strange and unexpected visitor to get near.
Long grey-ish hair falling down her waist, no taller than about 5 feet. Her skin was just a tad bit tanned like every other person her age of the clan while the young ones don't seem to be affected by the scorching sun.
"Welcome welcome visitor, it has been a long time since we meet an outsider so excuse our unenthusiastic welcome." Welcomed the granny with a harmless soft tone.
"Don't worry about it. We also didn't expect to meed anyone in such a dangerous place." Replied Yasuo to the granny who appeared to be the leader of the tribe.
The other people around her were showing obvious signs of their respect for her as they stood a bit behind her not interjecting at all.
The granny opened her narrow eyes a bit observing the surprising visitors before remarking something interesting, "Outsiders?"
"Oh, you meet people like us before?" Wondered Yasuo picking up the hint.
The harmless granny again closed her eyes and responded, "Hoho, It has been a long time but I remember meeting an outsider, just one naughty boy. I didn't expect other outsiders to arrive after so many years. hopefully, you're not as naughty as him."
A small smile surfaced on Yasuo's face and held it back from becoming even wider after noticing a few things.
The slight killing intent released from some of the people behind her so faint it's almost unnoticeable and it was released the moment the word outsider left her mouth.
He also picked up something else as well. The granny could be much older than what one might think if the boy she's talking about is Don Freecss.
Yasuo knows he's alive and also knows that Don set out to the dark continent quite young but not that young.
He was definitely in his twenties yet she's calling him a boy as if she's much older unless she only met him recently and thought he's that young because he looks as such.
"How about inviting us in and finding out? I was taught to be a respecting guest since young but how about seeing it for yourself." His calm and serene expression makes one think none of what comes out of his mouth can be lies. He truly looked like the most sincere person out there, a sincerity only rivaled by the granny before him.
"Hohoh, of course of course, excuse my rudeness. Please follow me, and everyone, go back to what you were doing." With an air of gentleness around her, she invited them in.
Her people hastily obeyed and went back to their own business not worried about the strange visitors at all. The granny led the two to the tallest building in the trib with a well-maintained ladder to the top hole.
She however turned her head to Yasuo and asked, "Would you do this granny a favor and take her up? Perhaps using the trick you used before?"
Yasuo smiled and opened a portal in front of her that lead exactly to the large hole.
The granny praised without much change in her expression, "Splendid indeed. The other outsider also had a few tricks like that."
They entered into the portal finally seeing what's in the hole.
An exquisite wooden door she opened and entered a large hall. Everything within the hall was well-made and had a sense of elegance and everything seems new.
They're not that primitive of people after all, clean and elegant. "Please have a seat."
"Can you do such tricks as well?" Casually asked Yasuo after sitting down on the dark brown chair. Morena on the other hand started strolling around the hall observing the tens of statues placed around.
The old granny shook her head while keeping a close eye ok Morena, "I wish, I could've avoided so many bad things and helped my tribe stay safer if I did."
A trace of sadness appeared on her face reminiscing the past, and a trace of regret that would force even the coldest of hearts to feel sympathy.
"Yet you survived and even built yourselves a home in such a dangerous place, how?" Yasuo however directly asked a question not giving the strange granny time to finish her reminiscing.
The granny let out a sigh as she answered softly with apparent firmness and belief in her tone, "The only reason we're alive and safe to this day is because of our belief. Because of the protection of our caring great god."
Her tanned face shone in bright light or so it appeared as she showed her devotion to her sole God, "Even in darkness, he shines upon us and shines within. He is the light of the day and the fire that warms our heart... The Sun God."
Her eyes were closed muttering in prayer and what looks like pure devotion until she opened her eyes saying, "That's our belief and what protects us from the dark."
Yasuo's expression didn't change but he was thoroughly amused by the perfection of the act before him. 'Does she truly believe what she's saying or was she living in a lie for so long it became truth to her?'
Yasuo didn't entertain her behavior for too long, instead, he asked another question, "Are there more people here? People like you? Other tribes?"
The air turned a bit gloomy after his question as the old granny looked downcast remembering some other memories and answered with a tone of hatred and disappointment.
"There are, there is a tribe like mine. However, it's a tribe of barbarians and vile people who only care about chaos and murder. People that were once one of us but they have gone astray."
Yasuo lightly stroked his earring in contemplation before asking one last question, "The shining scarlet eyes... How did you get them? Is it also a gift from your God?"
The granny narrowed her eyes even more looking into his beautiful silver eyes and strangely avoided answering honestly, "Why would you think they're a gift? It's just something natural of our people."
"I see, it's just because someone outside also has those eyes and he becomes much stronger when they shine though you guys seem to keep them active all the time? Well, it doesn't matter, we'll be on our way."
"Wait!!" Shouted the granny with her eyes wide, the first time she lost her composure since the start of the interaction, in fact, it has been hundreds of years since she lost her composure against the naughty boy.
She continued, "There are other people like us? How? Does a... How many are there?" She bombarded him with questions and almost slipped and said something she can't say.
Yasuo kept that slip up in mind and answered as he created a portal in front of him, "I don't know much about them but they were apparently a clan isolated in a certain region though they were massacred and only one person survived."
Morena took one last look at the obvious statue of a shining sun in the middle of the hall before going with Yasuo into the portal.
"She's so weird and creepy, it was really hard looking at her," Remarked Morena after they walked out of the portal, a hint of contempt was apparent in her eyes.
"Haha yeah she is, quite weird but it's not like you're not as manipulative as her now, is it?" Yasuo let out a small laugh before responding.
Morena just shrugged her shoulders and responded, "It's okay when we do it but not when other people do it, especially so blatantly in front of us, the audacity of some people."
Yasuo was again amused with Morena's spoiled and narcissistic behavior as he held her hand and remarked, "Well, you seem to be planning your revenge so it doesn't matter, right?"
That seemed to light up her mood as a sunny smile surfaced on her face and with a cheerful tone, she said, "Yup, I put my poisonous seed right within her fake god under her nose hehe it's funny isn't it?"
She simply couldn't hold her laugh by the end. Yasuo brought his little devilish wife closer to his chest and said before teleporting away again, "You're certainly entertaining..."
