Fortunately, the artifact that the demon god is in possesses constantly expanding space and time coefficients.
Soverick grinned at the sight. It was a savage grin of madness and desperation, "All or nothing." He said. "We do this or we break."
They are at the precipice now. The demon god is right here in their inner world. It is also in the Kickstarter since that's where they placed the special world spark. It means there is no going back for them.
They have to risk everything now and succeed or lose everything. So the Kickstarter was started. The artifact began to move. It lit up suddenly and began to whirl. Time sped up within it while space expanded.
The Kickstarter artifact was built in the form of figure eight or the infinity symbol. It is two loops joined together at their edges. The first loop, which is white, was constructed using divine energy from the tree father to give cosmic energy shape. The Authority of order that the tree father possessed was used as the anchor of cosmic energy.
The demon god or soon-to-be world-ender is inside this loop. It is rotating around this single loop over and over again. Space is expanding and time is progressing faster than the rate of time in the void universe within it. This was achieved as a result of the combination of cosmic energy and the divine authorities of order, space, and time.
The white loop is a small world free of the laws of the void universe. So time and space can be warped within it. All it costs apart from the initial cosmic energy requirements is energy to run it. That energy is being provided by the tree father through the Authority of the Celestial Supreme present at the center of the white loop.
So the demon god is allowed to freely accelerate forward through time around and around the loop. The increase in the flow of time has made it so that its breakthrough is occurring at a fast speed relative to the time of the void universe while the expansion in space has made it so that its breakthrough is not affecting Legion-1's inner world.
The adjoining loop which is the black loop was constructed painstakingly by using chaos energy from Aeternus to bind with cosmic energy. It was not easy for Legion-7 to construct this loop. Chaos energy is not a very good base. It is not obedient at all. If not for the fact that it was willing to bond with cosmic energy, then it would have been a futile attempt to use it.
Legion-7 was successful so there are two loops with opposite energies. One is order and the other is Chaos energy. Constructing them this way gave the arrangement a difference in potential. The two loops are just rearing to go at it. They want to meet and collapse.
They want to balance the difference in potential and reach zero state, but they are prevented from doing so because the tree father is maintaining a closed loop in the white loop while the world fragment at the center of the black loop is preventing it from collapsing.
This world fragment was given to Soverick by the first Sage. It contains the complete false law of order of the first sage. It is doing a fine job of resisting the collapse potential of Chaos energy. But they can't make it do more than that.
What the world fragment is currently doing is just a natural reaction. It is not going to Kickstart a world engine because it is not its natural reaction to do that. It needs the Will of the first sage for that. Or a little encouragement. Legion intends to give it that little encouragement.
"Let it rip," Soverick ordered.
The time dilation within the white loop has reached a critical point. Any more and it will be a catastrophe. The tree father is not a world god. He doesn't have enough power and energy to keep it going past this point. That will cause all the time they have expanded to contract suddenly. It will snap back like an elastic band.
The flow of time won't go back to zero after contracting like that. It will enter the negative, if only briefly. This negative will spill forth into Legion-1's inner world since the loop would have obviously collapsed at that point. So yes, it would be catastrophic if the time dilation is not eased off.
Fortunately, catastrophe can be avoided for now. The demon god has successfully become a world-ender. So the tree father did as Soverick said and let it rip. The closed loop within the white loop became open. It became connected to the black loop and able to freely interact with it.
The two loops want to collapse into each other. This caused the freestanding world-ender within the white loop to be forcefully attracted by the difference in potential. It shot into the black loop carrying the time dilation with it.
The supreme law in the world fragment at the center of the black loop attacked the world ender immediately. It was an instinctive reaction. The carefully maintained balance in the black loop was upended by the presence of the world-ender. This caused the black loop to collapse.
This collapse was a violent thing. Time had been messed up and so was space. These fundamental cosmic forces all came crashing down on the supreme law and world-ender. The two opposing entities were evenly matched. None of them gave up ground so both of them were forced to pay the price for backlash. They were torn, and crushed into their basic components. Matter and energy were converted into power in a big bang.
Legion was ready for this big bang. Power expanded outwards from the collapsed loops leaving only the remnants of the two supremes at the center. This power then fell into the open arms of the world engine which was placed around the two loops so it encapsulated them. The golden ring roared to life as power poured into it. The world engine had been kick-started.
