Fu Lai Shan Mountain, a mountain in a star, that does not welcome any beings from the outside stars.
This star is the home of the chosen protectors, today the lonely mountain was rumbling! Today it was breathing! Today it was alive!
The mountain stretched for many kilometers into the sky, the peak was virtually hidden within clouds that formed of solid water. Giant boulders, mistaken for clouds would float in the sky. The boulders would occasionally make contact with the mountain, a piece of it would crack and hurl towards the main land.
Actually this whole planet was a giant natural phenomenon! Each part of the planet was different. Some parts unceasingly, unending and unyielding thunder strikes! Another part with fierce flaming pillars rising from the ground to the sky.
The more one looked at this place the more one would be shocked and scared. Mountains forming in an instant and exploding the next. Tsunamis, hurricanes and tempests forming in the blink of an eye, and in the next becoming a gentle breeze brushing past the mountain. This was a truly shocking world.
Within the center of these natural phenomenons was a mountain, that mountain was Fu Lai Shan Mountain. More importantly, the phenomenons were ever changing. The only constant thing on this planet was this mountain.
This world had its own laws and cycle, making it seem spectacular from the outside to watch this cycle. However, today it seemed like the cycle was going awry, the pillars of light would rise and come crashing down. Initially the moment they crashed they would continue growing in length and wider. The thunder strikes would descend down and strike all over the land the forming mountains would continue forming piling up into the sky. Eventually covering the world blocking out the sky, suns and the stars.
Today it seemed the planet was being town apart from every corner.
Atop Fu Lai Shan Mountain was a strange peak, the peak at the very crown of the mountain would split into twelve smaller peaks, each smaller peak looked ancient. The rock that formed the peaks, looked like it would crumble into dust at any given moment, yet it would not.
Atop these peaks was five figures, each standing on their own respective peaks. These five figures would be standing in unison, four of these figures was positioned in a way that was a formation around the fifth figure. It looked like a formation to protect the fifth member.
The fifth figure, standing in between the four was an aged man. This man stood like a pillar, every breath he drew made it seem like the mountain vibrated for a mere instant, felt the like the ground shook for miles and miles. The air escaped with each exhale, which would produce a slight whistle, but come rushing back with each inhale like a child rushing back to its parent at its beckoning. With each heartbeat, thunder would clash and explode in the air above.
Stood in a protective formation of this aged man was four youths. Three boys and single female. They each stood their with a dignified aura. Although, around each of these youths an element was swirling about one could easily notice that the element swirling about was unstable.
The element didn't want to be controlled and wished to strike the youths if it had been presented with the possibility.
The aged man slightly glanced at the youths, he above all could understand their control was limited. From afar this was still apparent. Even so the youths still dared to release their awakened elements.
This was their conviction! Their final act in the face of death!
The surroundings were completely black. Even so, one could see the brightly shining rampaging elements around the youths. Each youth had a different color surrounding them. Most apparent, was the lightning forking and snaking around the youth to the farthest right. He had black hair and black pupils a lean body. Eye blindingly light, striking around him was divine lightning!
The lightning continued to travel around him and fork around his body and slither like a snake, it was impatient and continuously try to shoot off at each given time, yet it would come shrieking back to the youth who was sweating balls from his forehead clearly he was unable to last longer.
Even though he couldn't last longer he had already resolved himself to this fate, if all else would fail he would release this divine lightning beast and let it devour the oncoming enemy, even if it meant his own death!
The remaining three youths were just as bad, the female had five blazing round balls that resembled a mini sun, swirling around her body. The fire that was circling around her body would occasionally rise and expand, similar to the pillars of fire. Yet this divine fire was still unable to break past a seemingly invisible barrier.
The female had crimson hair and crimson lips with ruby colored eyes, her eyes was different it looked like the elemental fire was swirling in a circular motion within her pupils making anybody who looked into them, unconscionably unable to look away it was a mesmerizing scene.
The remaining two youths looked the oldest but not by much, a particular youth who had the earth element forming around his body. The divine earth kept crawling up his body and accumulating like a mini spider, it would abruptly explode around different parts of his body.
This youth was dark skinned, in the night he was almost invisible if it wasn't for his milky white eyes and hair and if one never heard the rocky mountains exploding, crumbling and building around his body you wouldn't be able to notice him in the dark. Just like the other youths his divine element wanted to escape just as bad, each explosion sounded like a volcano erupting, a planet colliding with another planet!
These sounds alone would shock a mortal mans heart, if not kill him!
The final youth had his eyes closed. It seemed this youth was the least submitting, it seemed like he was trying to control his element even in this predicament! He knew if he could, the situation would be turned and they wouldn't have to fear the oncoming enemy!
He even at this moment was unfaltering! However, as each moment passed he knew this wasn't like before when he could train for as long as he wished and in the end being the most talented he would eventually have a breakthrough. However, with the enormous pressure bearing down on them he was losing the ability to make a breakthrough, also seemed like he was feeding his element more and more power which made it seem like it was going crazy, chaotic!
Nobody would be able to approach him the slithering water surrounding his body was the most violent constantly whipping, spinning and slicing the air, creating a small vortex within the surrounding two meters of his body. This element was the most violent, but with a single glance from the aged man the element would quieten down, it would meekly retreat and continue eyeing the chance to escape.
The youth had Silvery long hair which floated and landed around his shoulders with streaks of blue flowing through his hair, his skin was pale white and seemed like it would be bruised upon just touching it lightly. He had Silvery, blue pupils, when one looked into his eyes, it would make you feel like you was standing in a frozen domain standing off against a lone wolf. His eyes were extremely unnerving but one couldn't help, but look at these eyes they were completely unique and not many people would posses such eyes. Truly stunning sight!
Into the distance in the black, seven figures could be discerned from within the dark sheet, each of these figures resembled a human body but, was vastly different they looked demonic and demented each figure was emitting a faint dark Qi. The aura emitted from them, looked extremely dirty to the naked eye. One look at this aura would make one feel dirty and disgusted to the bone, within every cell and fiber of their body!

This dirty aura would unconsciously make disgusting and demented thoughts arise in your mind, it would make you think about doing things you subconsciously would never consider, staring at this aura for long, would result in your skin changing, your limbs distorting and eventually you would become extremely sinister, and slowly lose your humanity as well as human body to this Qi.
The aged man would stare at these darting seven missiles enclosing towards the summit of the peak where they was currently located, he knew of the impending clash, but he looked extremely calm. The atmosphere was split into two by a seemingly thin invisible barrier one side would give of the feeling that it was calm, serene and nature was in harmony even with the natural phenomenons occurring in the background!
The other side the atmosphere was chaotic, hard to breath hard to look through! With each passing moment this Qi lingered the animals, and plants in the vicinity of the deathly Qi would begin to distort, change with limbs sprouting and growing from different parts, horns and spikes erupting from their spines, and bones.
The wildlife and plant life was evolving into demented beings at scary rate. Eventually, each wild life or plant life would hit a final evolution state and soon turn to look at their siblings or children and viewing them as meat. Their teeth had changed into razor sharp fangs, any living creature would begin to tear into anything with a pulse. Deers would begin biting their young-lings. Birds would peck at their newborn eggs. Wolves would begin shredding their own packs to bits..
One look at the aged man would calm the maddest of men, the aged man glanced at the youths, stopping on each briefly. He whispered a few words to each one before he raised his right arm in a slow fashion, his palm was open. Before any of the youths had a chance to contest the aged mans hand came down slow. It seemed slow however it was strikingly fast like a comet hurling towards the center of the world.
With the aged mans hand descending the air was ripping below his palm it seemed like the air was seized by him. It was like somebody dropped a huge pebble into a pond the rippling was visible to the naked eye! Behind his palm the wind buffeted, whirlwinds arose from nowhere and hurricanes began viciously spinning anything that came into contact would be shredded to pieces and return back to being dust. Storms had begun whipping about enveloping each of the youths, the storms immediately began to move off into the distance, each moving in different directions with unheard of speed.
Within the cocoon tempests the elements raged and crashed against the wind wall but was unable to do anything. The element would strike the wall and dissipate without hindering the wind cocoon surrounding the youths. Muffled explosions, raging heat and screaming, shrieking whipping sounds could be heard from each wind cocoon but from the outside it seemed like a hallucination if one couldn't see the inside one would never believe that an element was striking against this wind cocoon.
The aged man glanced at one particular wind cocoon moved his hand in a gesture, like he was calling it to him while he was smiling affectionately. He knew this would be the last time!
He could see this youth, hurling lighting from each palm into the wind he was the only one left next to the aged man yet he seemed reluctant to send him away, but he was reminded that time was short.
With the ever growing chaotic aura, that had soon began to contest and attack his, he knew he had run out of time. Before taking one long deep glance at the youths eyes he moved his hand towards his chest, his fingers landed just above his heart and a simple gesture he tore into his chest, and picked out a seed, the seed was reluctant to leave him it seemed. His skin was attaching itself to the seed for as long as it could, the seed had a will of its own trying to move back in but it was not strong enough to beat its master.
The seed was extremely small, size of a nail yet it gave the feeling it wouldn't be crushed under a mountain, it gave the feeling of boundless power and total control! But as soon as the seed had come out of the aged mans chest, the world began to shake, land began to split. The star, the mountain was began to crumble in on itself, from the outside it looked like gleaming white lights had began appearing on the planet.
On the main land however pillars of light and fire began to grow at an alarming rate, they grew bigger and bigger, hotter and hotter, brighter and brighter! Mountains began erupting all over the world but wouldn't begin to form they seemed to cease to end like the life force of the planet stopped! It gave up!
The thunder would scream and screech! Thunder no longer moved in a single direction striking the ground, no! The thunder would rotate, spin and move in different directions sometimes shooting back into the atmosphere, the lightning became three times as big as soon as the lightning struck the ground, it was so hot the thunder had actually crystallized! Any animal that came into contact with the lightning would instantly turn to ash, the clouds began to rain and shockingly from above the clouds water boulders began to form and descend towards the planet. The rocks floating, orbiting around the star also began to invade the atmosphere due to the collapsing gravity and would soon crash into the planet destroying it completely.
The aged man looked at the lightning wielding youth, he extended his hand into the wind cocoon where it would part to allow the man's hand to pass through, like it was unworthy to touch his hand.
The mans gentle yet imposing voice resounded out, calming the youth he quietly whispered "Lei, stop don't waste your energy the divine lightning may consume you. Take my seed and ensure the chosen child ingests it before his coming of age. I have foreseen the future, the one to ingest my seed shouldn't be alive during my time but nonetheless, if the prophecy can change so to can the chosen one. You must protect this person with all your power, and guide him towards the right path, for I will not be here to help him nor guide him this task, my son must fall on your shoulders and yours alone. Do you understand?"
The youth had wanted to interrupt the aged man, but he found it extremely hard, his face had already began to flood with tears and he instinctively reached his hand out to accept the seed. He held it extremely carefully and would ensure that no harm would come to it.
He held it to his bosom and began sobbing. Even if he wielded divine lightning, he was still a child at this moment, no person could stay calm. However, before he could say anything he was already miles away, all he could do was feel the planet destroying itself, as if it was trying to reset the world. He weakly said "Don't worry father.. I won't let you down, I promise!"
The aged man just looked back, with a great big smile on his face, he could hear every single word and wished to linger in this moment a little longer. Looking at his son flying away he had so many regrets in his heart, but he couldn't voice any of them. This was not the time!
The aged man looked back at the incoming dark auras, and he just took a step, each step would be to his doom but these steps didn't contain a weak will or regret instead, they contained hope and resolve! His gaze wasn't like he was looking at evil or disgusting creatures, no! His gaze was pity he held the power but wasn't able to avert these seven demons in front of him from becoming a great calamity.
When the two auras clashed a great white blinding light emitted, anybody who looked at this light whether it be from this planet or another would instantly become blind, the light emitted was a dazzling milky white light that shined across all the galaxy that day.
That day would become known as the white fall throughout the galaxy.
