Cogeian Sky Embry Novels & Stories

POV: Professor Cornelius Fell | Hermetic Order Secondary Facility, Undisclosed Location The embryo was the most perfect thing Fell had ever made. He stood at the incubation chamber and looked at it through the crystal viewing panel the way other people looked at sunsets or newborns, with the specific quality of attention that meant he had stopped cataloguing and started simply seeing. Five viable hybrids had come out of the Rookeries battle. Four were developing on predictable curves, useful data points, exactly what the program needed. The fifth was something else entirely.

Vaguely, a human-shaped creature could be seen squirming gently, anxious to get out of it. Ding Hao took another step back. The crystal light contained a powerful aura that was almost comparable to that of a God Realm Master. It was extremely terrifying, which meant that the creature in the embryo was frightening. It was born with powerful strength so that it could not be underestimated. Bang! The embryo suddenly exploded. A stream of light black flowing light shot out from it like lightning. With a cheer, it instantly soared into the sky.

Maxine was puzzled. Her cultivation was not high enough to come in contact with this stuff. Thus, she was oblivious to the Sky Burial Age. She shook her head lightly and said, “I’ve never heard of it before.” The woman explained, “From ancient times to present times, there have been two Sky Burials. During the first Sky Burial, countless powerhouses at the Caelum Acme Rank roamed the Greater Realms. Many extraordinary prodigies were born, and they went on to create various potent Supernatural Powers, which have been handed down to this day.

The room brightened, revealing a breathtaking scene. The interior was a treasure chest of creativity; paint splatters on the walls and the floor was strewn with brushes, canvases, and sketches. Lia gasped, taking in the vibrant colors and the sheer volume of work that surrounded her. The air was filled with the faint scent of paint and turpentine, and it felt alive with artistic energy. "This is amazing," Lia exclaimed, her eyes wide with wonder as she stepped further inside, admiring a large canvas depicting a swirling sunset over a tranquil sea. Just then, Tyler reached for the canvas and carefully lifted it down.

'I think something happened. 'Yes,' Lihua said. 'I noticed.' She crossed the room and crouched in front of the girl. 'Tell me what you feel.' 'Like the ceiling is gone,' Ruoxuan said. 'Like I have been living in a room my whole life and someone just took the roof off and there is just — sky up there. More sky than I knew existed.' She looked at her hands. 'I advanced. Did I advance?' 'You broke through to Foundation Establishment,' Lihua said. 'Fully. Cleanly.'

The sheer kinetic back-blast threw Christian Cole backward, his spotless white wool coat staining with gray mud as he slammed into the frozen chassis of his escape pod, his blue eyes finally wide with a wild, un-regulated terror. Inside the violet vortex, the air didn't thin; it burned. The raw marrow-ore beneath the continent wasn't just energy—it was life, and the open-source baseline was rewriting the atmosphere itself. "Kemi!" I roared through the thunder of the frequency, my voice splitting into a thousand multi-layered echoes that rattled the entire western boundary line. "Tell the market square... to open the valves! We’re printing our own sky!"

Thus, Yan and Gie are convinced that Skye definitely wouldn’t be defeated by the newborn fairy. … Skye definitely wasn’t defeated by the newborn fairy, for he is actually bullying it right now! “I knew that this distance is enough.” Skye chuckled as he watched the dim ball of light ‘stuck’ on the ground and couldn't move. Hierro squatted beside it and stared at it. “I can see the shape of a child with a pair of long, pointed, translucent wings on its back.” He told Skye. “It is very cute.” He added and smiled.

Hui Shan enthusiastically guessed in a hushed voice. Zhang Yong shook his head. "It's just a breakthrough, and only into Sky realm." Hui Shan relaxed, but Wang Wei and Zhang Yong stayed pensive. "Hui Shan, do you know anyone invited who's around 12 years old?" "En, but from what I know, they've all broken through to Sky realm already." As soon as she answered the question, she caught on to their worry and so contemplated along with them. / Was this person a late bloomer or a genius? /

"I'm going to grow so fast the wind won't be able to catch me!" Maria watched her go, the smile lingering on her lips even as the shadow of worry remained in her eyes. Lina was happy with the "wind seed" story for now, but Maria knew that as the girl grew, she would start asking about the wind itself. She would want to know where it blew from, and why it had to be so "brave." For now, however, the garden was a place of peace. The secret was buried deep, hidden beneath layers of love and marigolds, and the "child of light" was busy trying to build a castle for an earthworm king.

I took off for the wild yonder, gazing up at the Milky Way sprawled across the night sky. It was my son's dream. He was a stargazer, an astronomy buff since he was knee-high. On his birthday, he saw his first meteor shower in the wild. Tragically, that same night became his last. I was determined to make his dream come true. The divorce papers, signed by Elias, landed in my mailbox. Maybe it was guilt, but he rewrote the terms, leaving me with a lion's share of our assets. I took it all without batting an eye.
