Chapter 1 - Rising of the Race

"Here is your final warning, hand over the spiritual core, or we will destroy you."

A single warrior makes a stand against an entire army. Dressed in white, the young man stood alone, his resolute will like a pillar of this sacred spiritual core that could never be toppled. His body was a mass of deep gouges, his pain such as could swallow a man whole, yet he looked his foes in the face and loosed a savage din of defiance.

Maintain a gaze as fierce as a lion's and as unyielding as steel, he roared,"I'll never hand over the spiritual core to you, no matter under any circumstances! Even if I die, I can never give this to you!" He had blood oozing from wounds, but he spoke with the conviction of a man on an unbreakable mission. "I am Dhananjay! I vow that no matter what, I will protect this spiritual core." His statement resonated across the battlefield and stirred the hearts of both friends and foes alike.

There was only one man standing against Dhananjay. He let out a cold laugh and said, "You are indeed powerful, Dhananjay. But look at your current condition. I have no doubt that I am no match for you in a fair fight, but right now, you are facing an entire army." His words carried both admiration and cruel mockery, as countless soldiers surrounded the lone warrior, their weapons gleaming under the fading light.

"Ha… ha… haa..."Dhananjay laughed loudly, and his laughter echoed across the area.

That person asked coldly, "Dhananjay, why are you laughing? You are not in a situation to laugh." On the outside, he appeared calm, but inside, he remained alert, knowing Dhananjay all too well. Dhananjay was not the kind of person to laugh in such a situation unless he had a second plan. Sensing danger, he raised his voice and commanded, "Everyone, take your positions and surround Dhananjay! Make sure there is no way for him to escape!"

Then, more than a hundred people took their positions, blocking every possible escape route.

Dhananjay said, "In my life, my biggest mistake was considering you my best friend, but you betrayed me. I am the protector and the current owner of the spiritual core, and you are not worthy to claim my position. Throughout my life, I have prepared for every situation, including this one. Now, I am ready for my final battle."

"Everyone, be ready for attack," the man shouted loudly. Then, everyone prepared to launch an attack on Dhananjay. But suddenly, something happened—everyone froze in their positions. The man murmured, "Th... This is the power of space," and looked at Dhananjay in shock before shouting, "How are you using your power? I have already sealed it!"

In the past, he was a close friend of Dhananjay. Their bond was unbreakable, but to take over his friend's position, he took the opportunity to seal Dhananjay's power. And now, he was shocked at how Dhananjay was using his power.

Dhananjay opened his eyes, his whole body burning in fury. He roared, "Ahhh… Ahhh… Ahhh…!" and tore through space as if it were mere paper, killing all hundred men in a fraction of a second. The remaining men and that man were afraid and shocked. They all saw that Dhananjay killed all those men without even moving his finger.

Now, they all understood Dhananjay's power. They watched as all the dead bodies floated in space, and the blood of those dead men drifted around them.

He looked like a demon from hell and said, "Anyone who wants the spiritual core must first face me."

The reason why Dhananjay is able to unleash his power is because he is doing "Atma-Tyaag." Atma-Tyaag is a process where a person burns his body to become more powerful. But it has a backlash. A person can use his life power to become powerful, but it is only for a short time. After his life force is finished, he will die.

By observing Dhananjay, the opposing person became very angry and said, "Dhananjay, why are you sacrificing your life for this spiritual core? Just give me the spiritual core, and I will let you live."

Dhananjay coldly replied, "You are not worthy."

Then Dhananjay used his whole power to seal the space. Dhananjay is the owner of the spiritual core, that's why he is able to control the surrounding space. Then he shouted, "Every being, element, and race living here, I, Dhananjay, the owner of the spiritual core, am now teleporting this whole area to another location!"

"Ahhh… ahhh… ahhh…!"

Then suddenly, everything vanished as if it had never existed.

That man was shocked! He was angry and loudly said, "That man teleports everything with him!"

On the other side, there was silence in space. In the vast emptiness, there was one man who was burning in fire. He slowly murmured, "Now I have saved the spiritual core, now I can die peacefully. But before that, I have to find a successor for this spiritual core."

Then he left his body and became a soul. His whole body started turning into ash. After that, his soul began falling onto a small lifeless planet, just like an asteroid.

Now, from that event, billions of years had passed, and life had slowly started evolving. In these previous years, many things happened, and they were helpful for life's growth. Now, this planet has become fertile; there are jungles, oceans, mountains, and different types of species, including the human race.
